I wonder why W800 R1CA021 isn't released soon-or is it never? SE tries to make a specific phone,remember? SE has turned K750 camera version to 5.3, which is a must for an 'IMAGING' phone. But W800 is a 'MUSIC' phone,isn't it? SE may think W800 doesn't deserve the camera improvement..and the Walkman is already 80 %bug-free. Or is it because W810 has replaced W800-so SE says: buy it to get more! |

is anybody getting an error message while updating their k750i? right at the last bar the update stops & it says (error: update failed pls try again). i tried again for many times but still the same.
i checked the fone & the software version has been updated but now the camera won't open, it says (wrong camera driver version, pls update camera to 4.5 or later). the music player has some problems too.. this i think is because the update did not finish successfully
can anyone pls help? i know there are lots of u here who are experts on these things |

too bad... i think you better resort to third party servers... like davinciteam.com i dunno my phone was kinda like yours first time i tried to do an update via SEUS... and later ive found out that the SEUS version i was using really sux... so i waited for new ones to arrive... but during that period i tried davinciteam.com and it worked.. it updated my phone tho i shed some dough. are you in Manila?

@baioboy
do master reset, and update once again. Back up all data first. If it fails again,reinstall Windows. A full-flash by SE service centre is the final way out. |

Hi Doctor 
There are no noticable changes between 4.5 and 5.3, i'm sorry to say. Take a look at the first post for a more thorough overview of the differences. |

The camera sound has nothing to do with the firmware version in this case. It depends on what region you are in if your phone has forced camera sound or not.
I have a W800i from Denmark and I have no camera sound in silent mode - it depends on your region. |

Hi Aremaboy, The K750 and W800 are, for the vast majority of purposes, identical phones. What defines the main function of each is only a matter of firmware.
SE don't want you to purchase one phone over another, they want you to stay at the bleeding edge and buy all of them. Even if the differences are only a few tweaks to a plastic injection moulding machine somewhere in china and a few new lines of code.

I don't think it intirly correct,
In other parts of the world they use the same phone, except they have other version of the firmwire.
I have read onether thread where it's described how you can gain acces to the phone's file system and change almost every piece of software including shutting off the camera sound. |
