As this thread is dedicated to K850i firmware, why is that its not mentioning anything
about R1FA037..????
Is it so that it has no major difference with R1FA035..?
or nobody knows about its features..?
The reason why i asked this is, i found only R1FA035 as the latest on the first page
of this thread.
thankyou

As far as I know is 037 the branded version of 035. So no difference between the both.

It's not about better or worse. It's about operator depended crap or even limitations.

generic FW is made for phone across the globe without any limitations or modifications whereas the branded version is made with a modification to the generic FW for specific purposes or requirements as determined by the operator thus giving a "new" FW version. IN GENERAL the generic FW is a more complete version compare to the branded one.
i never tried any branded version but in terms of FW/Software performance both are the same provided they are on the same FW platform. in terms of features available it depends on your operator as mentioned by hihihans...

R1FA035 is a good fw. Try some drivers and you'll have an amazing phone.
