Is R1FA035 the latest software version?

My handset also seems to restart itself after intensive use but it is a rare occurence, this may be due to the fact that it was branded to vodafone but debranded it and installed generic software.

Ever since I've tried to use SEUS to update but it says i have the latest version and does not give me the option to re-install??

Is the phone branded? If it is you will have to debrand so you get a generic firmware


How do I check if my phone is branded? But I don't believe it is. I got in it's original SE packaging, including a battery branded in Chinese. So I believe it's an unlocked one. Don't think I could use my FIDO SIM card on it if it was branded but then I dont really know what "branded" means, I just know locked/unlocked.

My w910i has a black screen as soon as I open the slider, it appears to turn off and won't loose the black screen till the phone is restarted. Could this be a hardware problem or software/.

Try a reflash. That might do the job.

@Parth1: reflash your FS, and if the problem persists format the M2 card aswel.

@nitrounit as far as i know R1FA035 is the latest generic FW. The rest are just branded versions


@Alexial If your phone isn't brandet you will have to se the original Sony Ericsson icons on the menu and submenus. Branded refers to a series of FW customizations by the provider. Diferent menu, diferent icons, diferent submenus. It's not the same thing as locked/unlocked.

@userxy R1FA035 is the latest FW, and most users experience phone restarts because is really unstable

Hello,

After experiencing some software problems with my W910i (random restarts, lags) and some extensive Google research, I found a newer firmware R1FA037. I am not sure if it is fake or what are the changes. The file is named "W910 R1FA037 main generic SH RED52" and I have no idea how to test it. I couldn't find any software, that allows me to flash my phone, so, if anyone wants to try:

http://www.esnips.com/doc/84f[....]-R1FA037-main-generic-SH-RED52

Let us know of the result.

@kamelot

R1FA037 is the branded version of the latest generic firmware which is R1FA035, which makes it not better but worse. Stick to R1FA035.

This is my third SE phone and the worst so far! I am really pissed off by the constant restarts and freezes. And what's really bad is that there's no response from SE although there are loads of loads of postings about the instability and restarts of this phone...
Either it is a major design issue, or SE simply doesn't care. Either way this is probably going to be my last SE phone!
