I got mine just now. Asia Pacific version R1GA028
it should be same as the one you mentioned.
Camera driver remain 2.9 so don't expect anything change on the camera.
BUT the biggest changes I can see.
1. When you able to restart the phone, your PC suite will not work!!! don't panic. SE seem to have introduce a new software called PC companion. once installed it will have a screen showing MediaGO and PC suite short cut. The companion SW seem to have come together when you update the phone (stored in phone memory ...permanent or not ...don't know)
2. When you plug in the USB cable, there's no default screen....I will try to see how to get it back. But when I check the USB sub menu, now it have support for Linux/ MAC etc for phone mode. Then I believe the media mode is now called MTP mode. Nothing about PRINT be found.
I think the biggest change is this one
3. New Facebook integration.
Facebook now have a short cut under the messaging. The way facebook show up in Standby screen also different...it have a small icon at the left side of the screen, like the RSS feed...after you activate facebook navigation, you can scroll up and down for status/ nofication etc.
If you view Facebook using the short cut in messaging...it give you a browser like experience which you can have a few tabs to view photo/ inbox/ status etc.
I believe the new software is mainly for social network improvement. I notice my phone respond better but it could be just that many junk get flushed out during the flashing process. |

I didn't use those fancy flashing or checker for phone...so no idea what is my CDA
I just plug my phone to the Update service for a check and told I can flash to new one after K_michael inform about the new firmware. |

I've been taking pics with my c901 for a couple weeks now and have consistently found that about 50% of my pics are out of focus. The camera shows the green focus square but the pic turns out blurry. I've tried the macro and face detection settings with no improvement. I've updated my firmware also. Anybody else have this problem or have any thoughts? |

once the autofocus is already locked, do you hold your hand still before and after fully pressing the camera key?
that could be your problem mate.
unstable hands will ruin a pic even if autofocus has already locked

@goosecat thats happen only in normal n face detection focus only right? if yes, last time ago i've this problem too, almost of my normal focus get blurry, just macro and infinite mode give great result. but now thats problem go itself i didnt know surely why this problem happen, may be the problems in af-motor. snmy so my suggestion go to sesc in your country, may be they will replace your phone or try to take much of pic using macro mode like me to make thats problems gone. sometimes i compare the focus system in my c901 with my k800i (using raider with manual focus) and when it should be 2 point in my k800i, my c901 not go to focus, its like 1 point/infinite in my k800i. but their result almost same. |
