Impressions:

Tons of improvements, NO MORE MS DUO BUG! Thank God. Improved audio volume for both headset, and speaker. Was always a major issue that the volume was so low. The menu / navigation is a lot faster. Also, it seems like I may have improved reception cannot absolutely confrim this but I have 1 or 2 more bars in my basement then I last remember.

List of Changes:

R1AA008
- Released on SEUS for the W800 around 2/12/05.
- Released on SEUS for the K750 around 9/12/05 (EU4 only).
- (Note: Users are currently having difficulty performing R1AA updates via SEUS for the K750 firmware. Please check the latest posts for additional information)
- Fixes MS Duo file transfer issues.
- Rotating and zooming into pictures is faster and displays an egg timer whilst processing.
- Menu navigation (particularly when displaying thumbnail images) feels faster.

I've never updated my Phone firmware before. I've got the K750i from o2. Can this be updated? and if so what exactly do I need to do? (ie. what software, firmware file)

Cheers.
 
Yeah, I got the update yesterday and have been getting this all day. Fairly sure something's wrong at Sony's end. Updating the phone is safe as long as you follow the instructions.
 
Try using davinci client, it now has the firmware list updated, doigng mine after some css :p

So you've updated your w800i? I have one on Orange on R1L002 and wondered if this is worth it - my R1L002 is fine now my Plantronics 640 works so well with R1L's Bluetooth implementation... don't want to make things worse!
 
k750 with w800 firmware, I tried uypdating to the latest firmware (w800 version) but during *** flash the phone did not accept a block area of the flash file and failed, I then flashed with the k750 version and all is well.

I willr eflash with w800 version once this latest fw version is k750i flashable fully


BT works fine in all firmwares i have used, I use BT a lot too

Can i update my O2 W800i using the divinci firmware and what happens if i ever need to return the phone to O2?
 
I'd update, but I can't be arsed turning the PC on :D It hasn't been on much since the X360 arrived.

pumaz, just use the sony ericsson update service... no need to pay for the privalige!
 
The new sony update service thingy keeps on saying that the server is too busy.

Tried last night a couple of times, and this morning.... grrrr.

As i understand it the Divinci firmware gets rid of O2 branding and SEUS doesn't and i would love a none branded phone for a change :)

I'm waiting for my replacement phone at the moment (i received a DOA w800i on thursday :(). I just wanted to be sure that if my new phone packs up a couple of weeks after the Divinci firmware flash i could still return it unbranded?

On a seperate note - should i return the memory card with the W800i when i get my replacement or hang on to it? and should i bother with phone insurance as you get the standered 12 months SE guarantee and i'm not bothered about insuring it against theft or loss?
 
argh!!

I paid to credit the divinci account go the credit, but this cable i got with my phone appears to be incompatible :(

It powers up the phone when you plug it into the usb port and charges it :(

Anyone else able to use the usb cable that came with their phone??
 
What the new FW on the k750i?

Im currently on R1N035, any improvements of note on the newer version?

Running smooth as at the moment so i dont wanna fix something that aint broke
