Hi,

I updated the software yesterday afternoon via the SEUS to:

1204-1731
R3DA028
080908

Since the update my phone has started rebooting itself whenever I go to the bookmarks menu of the built-in browser. This is reproducible and happens 100% of the time. It also reboots when I try to enter a URL manually in the 'enter address' edit box and delete the 'www.'. (this is necessary to visit 'm.---' sites.

I'm really bummed because I do a lot of browsing with it, (more so than talking), and as such this problem is quite serious to me.

Has anyone noticed this (or similar) problem/s with this update version?
Is there anything I can do to either revert to the previous version or fix the current one?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Try using Opera Mini or update your f/w to R3DA032.

Thanks

I was just out having some coffee and a thought occurred that maybe it could be a corrupted bookmark.

Since I couldn't access the bookmark menu on the phone itself due to the rebooting issue, I attached it to my PC via the USB connector and deleted all the bookmarks via the PC suite.

So far, so good. This seems to have solved the problem. No more reboots.
