again, if youre going davinci, make sure you:

- use client 15.3
- keep the CDA, if you want to be able to use SEUS for future updates

thanks for the tip. i keep trying to download 15.3 instead of 15.8, but whenever i open it the version is still 15.8, even though on their website the latest is 15.6. tried downloading all the 15.x ones - all come up as 15.8 when i open them on my PC. 15.8 won't recognize my phone either, as my w550 keeps going to file transfer mode.

has anyone noticed sound recorder problems with the w550 btw? I dunno if it's just with the latest firmware, but the sound tends to be really really soft; almost inaudible when you use the sound recorder and play it back (with either handsfree on or with the onboard speaker)/ when making and receiving calls it works without a hitch though

Just updated to new firmware. Now have R4CB020 with camera version 4.6.
My W550 is a sim free UK model.
