So I updated mine today to 037 (the Recovery fw) from 029. And then WTF!!! Chinese writing language has disappeared as an option. Chinese UI is still available, but no g*dd*mned input!!
Also, svc settings messages are not recognized by the phone anymore. They're received as normal sms's with strange code symbols.
From the Svc Menu, mine is a SG Generic fw with APAC-ANZ customisation.
Anyone else have same experience? |

Still no update for my non-branded K850i in Australia...
Is there any (free) way to upgrade the firmware? I'm hoping it solves my problems re: HSDPA - I can never get the H or 3+ icon to display even when I have full 3G reception on Vodafone, which offers HSDPA.

Hi got the same problem. with the 3 network i get a H , but Optus i only set 3G...strange. |

It is great to see that Voda have released this update but they have not fixed a bug with sending one text to multiple people where if you chose to send one text message to more than 10+ people at one time, the message turns to picture message and refuses to send even as a picture message
Does anyone else have this problem or is it only voda branded phones?

Mine is unbranded K850i. Updated via SEUS to R1CA037 and I still have Chinese T9. Mine is also APAC-ANZ.
Does SG mean Singapore?
What does Recovery Firmware mean? Did SEUS state it clearly on the screen? |

I updated mine too but like i said previously, with it having the "OPER SPECIFIC" and not having all the features it originally had i am seriously considering taing it back, wrecking my head!! |

Just got mine on 17/12/07  updated the O2 firmware straight away before I used it. During navigation of the menus, particularly option menus, the select touch button could do with been changed to the left instead of the middle, so that it would be quicker and easier to get the job done?
If you've only just got it then it should already have the latest software on it (037). I got mine on the 5th Dec and its got 037 on. That isn't the one that gets rid of the faults though, the flash on mine doesn't go off in time with the shutter. |

The only issue I've had after upgrading to 037 is my MMS no longer send. It always says service unavailable... |

Hi Alan, I cant get gmail to work at all, it installs the software but wont let me access messages, I think its something to do with the k850 having 3 function buttons. Do you know anyone with a k850 who has got it to work?

Go to http://www.gmail.com/app on your phone, and download the file.
It should work fine |

I can confirm that Gmail, Opera Mini and Yahoo!Go run smoothly on my K850i R1CA037. No issues at all. |
