R1CA021 is also the final firmware for K750 as K800 will be announced in the end of June...Or Am I mistaken?

yes you are mistaken.
Firmwareupdates does not stop just because a sucessor to the phone is released. Example: new firmwareupdates for K700 were released long after K750 were released. Theres no such things as "final firmware" untill S//E find that all relevant bugs/issues are solved. This may be R1CA021, or it may not be, we dont know that yet, and it definately has nothing to with a new model being released or not.
Somtetimes though, you do see that some users feel that certain issues are not solved even when S//E desides for "final firmware" - depending on relevans of issue. Its not impossible to see that a minority of users complain about something that most others dont care for or dont experience, and something that S//E doesnt think is an issue. Or you might see that certain issues are not solved simply because they cannot be solved. So im not saying that firmwaredevelopment for a specific phone continues forever untill every single user on the planet is satisfied, but S//E never abandons firmwaredevelopment of a phone with known bugs, that can be fixed. just because they release a new model.

Don't you think that 'orange' might have something to do with the poor performance? Or maybe even that beige box you are plugging the grey lead in to? The vast majority of people have no troubles at all.
I have a range of memory cards, none of which are problematic.
Instead of blaming the memory card why don't you investigate your computer system, whatever software you are using to transfer files across the lead, and then search the net for people experiencing any similar problems.
Maybe you've gotten a dud card, maybe your operating system is loaded up with spyware and a million viruses, maybe it's all good and Orange screwed up the firmware... There are numerous possibilities - since you don't provide any details on the problem, or steps that others can follow to reproduce the problem, how do you expect anyone to help?
Not jumping down your throat in particular, just a little mystified by people who would rather bitch and be spoon fed rather than try to solve their own problems.
Cheers.

Have you tried formatting the memory card & then transferring stuff to it via the USB lead?
Are you using the "Safely Remove Hardware" option on your Windows taskbar before you unplug the phone from the USB lead?
Ive got a 2GB card in my K750I on Orange running R1CA021 firmware & have no problem with file transfer.

I need help......
My orange uk w800i has been updating via seus and the green bars are at the end but it still says updating software, please do not touch the phone and its been like that for the last 15-20 mins. I know its to risky to just disconnect it but it doesn't look like its going to stop. Does anyone know of a safe way to end the update safely??
Please help......thanks |

Well, I didn't experience that. SEUS 2.6.6.10 just worked perfectly. I updated my K750i an hour ago... |

Tried to update my W800 after making changes to the SMS limit, the camera focus sound and the hissing bug.
SUES told me I was on the latest firmware (R1BC002) so I chose continue anyway.
UPdate went OK.
SMS limit is still modded, camera focus sound is still silent and the hissing files are still there.
I wonder If anything actually happened on the phone ... |
