I too updated (actually Unbranded from the Rogers Wireless firmware).
Nicety's that I didn't have with the Rogers Firmware:
* Better WebPage (SE in memory)
* Sounds & Alerts: Key Response - vibration available for touch keys.
* Calls: Smart Search
* Security: Automatic Keylock (my GOD I'm so happy I can disable this stupid thing when I don't need it)
* Messaging: Web Feeds (YES FINALLY!) - however the standard 5 do not update  . Standby Ticker, Show in Standby~ I cannot wait to see this. Funny how  can do this with existing technologies, while Motorola waists money and tried to market this same thing with providers. They called it something (only AT&T has the server for this).
I haven't seen anything else new, though.
Of note I'm having a problem accessing the full HTML page of Esato. I really want to do this so that I can have the RSS Feed set. Not like I need to save data any longer thanks to my plan but its STILL more efficient.

I think APAC-ANZ_FS delayed because they didn't finish SO_CHINA_MAIN yet...
The other FS here (such as Western Europe, Adriatic) using GENERIC_MAIN firmware...
I just get a BROD (firmware rev R1EA037.) Sent it to SE Service Centre and must wait 1 months (that's 30 days!) to get my new K850i. They replaced the old ones.
It's funny because they said that it can't be fixed with EMMA (official SE flasher). But why third party programs (like DaVinci and KulanKendi) can fix BROD?
I just think a correlation between BROD and touchkeys vibration usage...
I never get a BROD before. Just one hours after I tick an option to vibrate phones when touchkeys pressed... BAM! It's get a BROD!
This new feature added since R1EA031:
Key response menu in Settings -> Sounds & alerts, allowing the selection of sound or vibrate when pressing the touch sensitive buttons.
I asks to everbody here that get BROD, did you use this feature or not? |

Hiron, you might be onto something but I think people had covered it a few months back. Non the less I do recall using the touch vibrate as soon as it became available on 031 and I BROD-ed pretty quickly. Problem is, the 2nd time my phone BROD-ed it was just sitting on a desk and I just heard it do a little vibrate and I just KNEW that it had reboot/BROD-ed, sure enough that was the case. I flashed to R1CA037 and stayed there until a week ago when I put R1FA035. Just as a precaution I did not turn on the vibrate touch buttons and so far ( knock on wood ) I've been fine. I have spoken to a guy who deals with fixing broken (read mis-flash, crashed, brod etc) phones, who was able to recover my K790 after it was butchered by Wotan, and he told me that he believes that BROD is associated with corrupt files during the flash process.

Fraid I can't back this up, I got a BROD whilst it was in pocket, however I did have haptic feedback on. When I reflashed to EA037, I did not turn them on, I didn't have one restart...
hmmmm, wonders to self when the first post will be updated?

My friend got BROD a couple hours after he updated to R1EA031. He turned on the touch sensitive vibrate feedback as soon as he updated.
Wow, this is just bizarre. |

just to share my experience with BROD, ive got none so far. i have k850 for 7 months, i use SEUS every time a new FW show up. normal usage (few drops from pocket, dust behiind lenscover), key vibration on, i am not using mp3player though. seldom restarts but almost always during fast viewing pictures in media. i can say i am satisfied. camera is not what i expected but i love the design even after 7 months. |

well, ive update it last night
mine so far so good
i noticed those changes
- really fast media player
- the menu in general got faster
- pictures now have better quailty and colors are better
- with flash when using iso 100, and -7 brightness, gives me really better pictures than before..
- in media player setting, there is something new called auto update
by the way, i have 2 things i wanna ask..
wat is BROD??
is there any diffrences in FW versions between asian , middle easr, europian??
i thought its only the langaues change, but when i read about phones problemd, not only K850, many og them ppl dont have it here, but they have other problems??

How can they not fix this intense flash? I mean, just dumb it down a bit for Macro setting. If I wanted a big white picture I would take a photo of my ass.

No update available for HONG_KONG_SO, checked 1 minute ago.
K850i was the SE's most superb phone. And failure.
Advanced to Android. |
