Nah, it's definitely in the Firmware list on the DavinciTeam website:

does this mean that r1f may only be a network/regional specific fix for the Americas region/Rogers and that the r3 firmware could still be coming?

I wouldn't recommend anyone update to Rogers firmware unless you need the 30 day warrenty when you purchase the phone.

Rogers locks down their handsets so much that when you debrand it, it feels like your using a totally different phone

I installed the 'Generic' firmware (which I think was called American before) and it works fine on o2 (UK).

Not too sure about R3, maybe that's a revised firmware of the R1F? Doesn't make any sense I know but sure you all know that by now lol.

If it means upgrading from the VERY first firmware of Rogers, I wouldn't mind.
Well, I actually don't intend to debrand my phone any time soon.
But it isn't available on SEUS today when I checked. heh

edit: okay, i do mind the debrand and i never will use a single vision app, but.. BUT, i would assume any branded firmware is stable as the r1dc001 held without the BROD symptom.

Guys, Ill try to update trhough davinci.

The only firmware for k850i, is R1F generic, and the cda is 123456, that means I wont be able to update through seus anymore?

I need a stupid functional phone!

Despite changing your CDA to a non-SEUS update-able one, by the time you flash R1F and the next firmware comes out, I am sure XS++ support will come for the K850i and you will be able to change your CDA from there.

I tried putting all the bugs together and hoping other users can point out if they have been corrected with the new firmware. Let me know if I'm missing any.

*BROD (Blue Ring of Death)
*Memory card theme restart
*When battery is fully charged while plugged in, it will read 98%
*Media player background?
*MP4 out of sync (while recording a video or while playing a video?)

Feedback of R1F
*3G only option isn't there. Was available pre-R1EA031 generic firmwares.
*Camera driver hasn't been updated.

Hmm, the 98% battery bug I don't have. It always says 100% when fully charged, and I am on R1EA037.
