R1A30 On O2.
Can't update to the newest yet
I just reapplied the same firmware and it seems to be an updated one on O2 as well. I noticed all the improvements that have been mentioned here in this thread but it's listed as R1FA030.
Backup your phone before applying the update because it wipes everything stored on the phone. |

is everyone else's speakerphone during calls much quieter than the loudspeaker during music?
i'm using R1FA035 and that's always bothered me. the speakerphone is so quiet i practically have to hold it next to my ear, but the music playback is good.

is it failure to the hardware or that's normal? |

OK, I know that this might sound a little noobish, but it has always bugged me. Do you really have to make sure the battery is fully charged and then remove it and re-insert it before updating the software? What happens if you don't do that? Why is it necessary in the first place? Thanks for your replies! |

your battery doesn't necessarily have to be 100% charged, but i strongly suggest that you make sure it is at least at the 50% mark. the last thing you want to happen is to run out of power during a firmware update, which may result in a bricked phone.
although it normally takes me about 15 minutes to update SE non-smartphones, some people have problems and take much longer to update so i guess you want to make sure you have enough power for any eventuality.
as for taking the battery in and out, it allows the phone to completely reset its memory and therefore avoid any corruption or other problems during the update. if you notice, sometimes after updates, especially with hacking software, you sometimes can't get the phone to power up until you take the battery in and out. it allows for a full reboot, if you like. |

well, now im having no problems with it at all, no restarts, nothing. and a damn fast speed. all due to the fact that i update my firmware regularly. if u didnt even try, then ur one of the ignorant idiots who waste money on phones and know nothing about firmware updates which can make it significantly faster -.- one piece of advice, at least update ur firmware. people who dont even try are _______ -.-

1. Download the Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) from
http://www.sonyericsson.com/c[....]pdateservice/w910i?cc=sg&lc=en
2. Follow the instructions on-screen. Thats all you need to do

Two restarts yesterday, One restart today (so far). I wasn't even using it in any way when it restarted.
I had to quit using automatic e-mail and RSS updates because it made the phone unusable while it was updating. (My k610i handled this better)
Sometimes there is a delay when answering a call it takes about 5-10 second from I flip it up or press a key.
Yesterday when it rang I flipped it up and it kept ringing for 5-10 seconds with a distorted ringtone.
I'm using R1FA035 (080527) and the phone is working better than in the beginning but it still needs fixing.

Hi, guys.. Its me again.. ^_^
After about 12 days since my last update, i have only 1 restart only.. Nah, small matter to me. Its better than before which is 1-2 restart per day! LOL! ^_^.
And one more thing, i realize that my HSDPA function which i claimed "missing" is working again! But the menu isn't there in Mobile networks>GSM/3G networks. I just used "GSM and 3G" only, but somehow the "H" icon comes out instead of "3G" before this?
Therefore, i dont have any problems anymore with this handset.. (for now! LOL ^_^).
And thanks to SE for the updates, and PLEASE OMG! DON'T STOP MAKING NEW UPDATES LOL ^_^.
Peace! |
