Good afternoon. One of my friends contacted orange upgrades to upgrade to a k850h. Orange responded with. Sorry orange have discontinued the k850i with the release of the c902 next monday. Shops may have them but there is no more stock and we are not getting the phone back in stock.

So it's evident that the reason why there is no K850 upgrade yet is because they are going to release another cyber-shot phone.

Come to think of it, a good upgrade for K850 might seem a minus for C902 sales...

damn....

I don't know why SE is making so much marketing mistakes!
They have annonced too much phones only 1 month after the release of the K850,this announcement was made wayyy too early,the K850 new FWs have a virus called BROD and they are still not finding a way to kill it...
In conclusion: People who wanted to buy a K850 but saw the C902 advertising preffer to wait,many of them are beginning to think about buying a N82 or N96 because the K850 is attacked by BROD and that it could be the same for next A200 phones,SE will not release so soon a stable FW BROD free because they are working on next phones...It's a vicious ring that can only be negative for SE,unless they respect after sales contract toward actual users and do a brilliant FW BROD free,this is the only way for them to gain a positive point in the market

Online petitions aren't worth the paper they're not written on.

If we can find some way of doing a class action then that might buck their ideas up.... not sure what it'd be on, but I'm sure they are obliged to support the phone and fix faults such as BROD for a reasonable time after release - especially as people rely on their phones and so to have it turn into a blue ringed brick when out and about is costly to business and personal relationships and safety.

Luckily I was close to home when the BROD hit and had a spare phone to stick the sim in.

Instead of monetary compensation, I think we should insist that SE replace any K850 with a N95 - I'm not sure I'd accept another SE phone as compensation as I've lost all trust in them.

Guys is the G900 using A200 platform??? If it is then I will be very satisfied if the next k850i firmware can do such a thing, after looking at this G900 video.

so... what do you suggest?

I know, maybe we can kidnap some SE-developers and force them to write new firmware!

Hey,

BROD stands for Blue Ring of Death, a random bug on the K850.

If you have a brod, only the keyboard lights up with the camera light when turning on the phone. A BROD can still occur to any firmware out there right now, so almost every k850 user is waiting for a new (stable and fast) firmware to come out.
