Sorry guys, Is the new FW out on Da vinci yet? It seems i can't use SEUS anymore since I re flashed with da vinci. It gets half way through rendering my phone useless, then i have to pay da vinci to flash it back again.
AFAIK DaVinci has R1FA035 for Rogers Canada and Generic America (all languages) only.

I can confirm that HONG_KONG_SO is now AVAILABLE.
I'm charging the phone now, then I'll perform the update.

This was posted by mwarner 2 1/2 months ago, probably his last post.
"As many of you know, I do not own a K850, having a Nokia N82 instead, so I must rely on Esato users to keep the information in the first post up to date. If you notice any changes to the software, PM me and I will try to add the additional information to the first post. I don't check Esato too regularly any more, so please be patient if I do not get back to you quickly!"
I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't check Esato at all. A mod will have to edit the first post |

Finally updated my phone, from R1DA038.
1. Master reset - All (before updating)
2. Update trough SEUS (approx. 7 minutes, including the download)
4. Restored a backup created previously with MyPhoneExplorer (Contacts, SMS, phone memory content)
5. Tweaked the settings (no start image/videoclip, no Flight Mode query, no keylock and various other) to match the settings I had before the update.
6. Turned the phone off to insert a microSDHC card I just bought. I removed it before the update, even though I'm sure it was OK to leave it in.
7. Restart - and WHOA! - the phone boots and finds the network in 10 seconds (before the update it needed 25+).
As soon as I find some improvement or problem not mentioned previously in this topic, I'll keep you guys posted.
K850i was the SE's most superb phone. And failure.
Advanced to Android. |

My current verdict:
- Battery performance is still the same as R1EA037
- Restarts: 0, nada, kapoots
- Camera is still the same, I use auto ISO with flash off for low lights, and ISO 100 with flash for dark shoots. The phone speed makes it a bit better though.
- in Media viewfinder, animated zoom in and zoom out of photos cut short.
I'll rate this new firmy 7/10.
the missing 3 points stands for the R3 firmy that we still am craving (dream on, dream on...)

Isn't your CDA 1201-0176 APAC-ANZ one? Didn't you change your CDA to 1202-5694 as one of correct CDAs for Western Europe when flashed the phone with KK?
Just run SEUS now and report what SEUS says, please.

That's what I suspect. Your CDA is still APAC-ANZ although you flash it with WESTERN-EURO files. I don't know what will happen if you update via SEUS.
Just to inform you, WESTERN-EURO uses Generic main firmware, while APAC-ANZ uses China main. That's a big difference.
Didn't you change your CDA when running KK three months ago? |
