I'm on ea037, unbranded.
No Brods, finally had the 'H', cam now seems faster, less blurred pics.

Maybe the faults are based on the phone carrier's firmware modification. Can somebody confirm it?

Hi all,

I just upgraded last night to R1EA037. The UI is now really speedy.

To the author of the firmware history, pls add this to R1EA037.

Bug fixes
- Java applications that use an Internet connection now displays the internet connection icon when connected.
(I was able to confirm this when I ran Opera Mini, the internet connection icon showed up).


Unfortunately, this still was not fixed:
Adding a theme that customises the Media Player causes the background to turn black if rotated into Landscape mode. This did not occur in previous firmwares.

Anyone having problems with their R1EA037?

I've just tried to reflash with KK so I can change the CDA, but after two attempts (to make sure I really did have the CDA options checked, etc) it has actually failed to change the CDA. When you do a read info you'll see it's still the old CDA!!

Anyone else experienced this? I'm trying to set it to CDA 1202-5694 which is what my phone was set to before I fixed a BROD using Da Vinci / O2 firmware. Looks like I've wasted €8 credit

After reading about all this issues, I may also suggest that these bugs come either from EROM, either from FS part of the firmware. Maybe there are phones with initially bad EROM or there is something wrong with FS on early firmwares, which is in fact not updated by SEUS. I flashed my phone 3 times: full flashing to R1CA037 Russia and R1EA031 ADRIATIC and updating via SEUS to R1EA037. Neither BROD nor frequent reboots.

I don't think KK does a full flash like da vinci, da vinci totally reinstalls the firmware as KK only does one bit. Try with da vinci, it worked for me

Kulankendi does a full flash and changes the CDA, that is how I changed the CDA on my k850. If you have problems with kulankendi contact the author on the gsmhosting forum, he might take a day to answer but he is usually a very nice guy and solves these problems.

there seems to be confusion about what a BROD is again.

People are saying they got one, then restarted and it was fine.

From what I've been reading.. that's not a BROD - D=DEATH and requires a SE centre to bring it back to life.

Are people still getting these? .. or just the random reboots?

Well, mines just about dead now!

I say just about as it does turn on, but won't stay on for more then 2 seconds, however, if i put my ancienct Orange PAYG sim in, its ok. That might only be down to the fact that i have no credit on it anymore, so it can't do anything, stopping my push mail and rss feeds.

But if i can't use my current sim in it, its about as usefull as a towel at a nudist beach tbh!

For now i'm using my S500, and see if i can revive my poor K850

I also think it might be something wrong with EROM, as i've had the phone since release, it might not have always been ok. Faulty EROM is what killed my W850, which still sits in my bedside table as a handy paperweight!

I never got any reboots - just straight into a BROD. Having to wait weeks for it to come back from repair, in the mean time I've had to use my old Samsung D900. I'd like to use an old SE, but my K750 keyboard doesn't respond and my S700 boots with a white screen.

For the remaining months I have to endure this POS, I will always carry a spare phone (I am often abroad for weeks at a time) as I cannot rely on it.

@sandy4464

It could also be a faulty simcard... I know you have tried orange simcard... try a different one of the same network and see if you get any problems....

If not... Just ring up the network and get a replacement sent to you...

Cheers

I will give that a go, quite a few T-Mobile users round here.

Only thing is, i'm now using the same sim in my S500 with no problems, could it only be faulty in my K850?

Quite possibly... it has a problem on the K850i... but would work fine on another handset...

Its happened to me, that is the reason I made this suggestion to you.

Cheers
