LOL... that's all you wanted huh...

Anyway yes, video is not possible without an accelerator chip inside the phone. w900 has such a chip and that is why it has better video. Video is too intense for the regular CPU to handle alone.

the mms writing seems to've changed a lot. they have a kind of scroll bar under the message space (above the softkeys) with buttons for adding pics, vids, sounds, camera, record and preview.

and yeh, the clock's cool. lol.

oh, and anyone who updates hoping it'll bring back there delivery report options. it doesn't. (it seems to be unbranding from 3 you lose the option for delivery reports which sucks majorly - unless i'm being silly and there's an obvious solution which noone has mentioned in my trawl of the interMcwebnet?)

someone punch me for this question...sorry.

I'm kinda confused about Wotan....is it basically a random company that modifies firmware and releases it at a price? it voids the warranty im guessing...? So in regards to the K800, the Wotan guys have released a new firmware to (possibly) fix all the bugs before SE has???

I just upgraded to R1ED001 via WotanServer and my Vodafone branding was removed (As i expected / wanted). What i didnt realise is that the two buttons which have a red and green phone symbol on them were part of the branding and not the default for the phone. Im used to pressing these buttons to make / answer / reject calls and cancel things, but now they perform other functions. Is there any way of making them function as before? I cant see the option in customise shortcuts.

Spend $15 from www.novamedia.de or go to http://mobile.feisar.com/ and download the plugins.

No. Wotan is a company or service provider just like Total Multi-Server, DaVinci, etc.... They all pay a fee to SE to have access to their servers and software. They are not performing any real modification to the code. If so, I would NEVER consider flashing via one of these services.

Is SE kidding us? No provement to camera like at all, video recording (i think) is still the same crap etc. All i wanted was HUGE provement to camera and videorec. Maybe better battery life, better sound when listening music with or without headphones, faster overall, things like that, ingluding fixed bugs. Only thing what one guy noticed was different type of clock so far!!



Dude,

You really should consider some sort of emotion control therapy. At the end of the day it is only a phone, a phone, a phone, a phone. Not a Swiss Army Knife. For the most part it does all it intends to do pretty well, with a minor hiccup here and there, but you want a miracle phone and as far as I know, SE does not make one.

Well I sort of said that SE would release the firmware today and they have.

R1ED001 MR1 (Master Release 1) was released (06Sep2006).

Now i know that its not on the SE update site. Im sorry to say that im still waiting to hear when they are. I have had no update to this so i don't know my self.

But now the release is offical I can only think it will be a matter of days.

I know that the SE Update service has just updated, so it may be on from tomorrow. But again dont quote me on this one.

Sorry i cant be more help. I wish i could be.

I debranded from 3 to generic, and I get delivery reports as usual. (I would have been raising h-ll otherwise, being dependent on it.)

Also quicker at loading photos and on the task menu under the bookmarks section instead of just havin them listed you go into it and then have to go into a folder called bookmarks and the globe on the browser flashes when loading a page
