Preferably yes. But some authorised service centre (like in my country) refuse to say that EROM is updatable (They say it come with firmware so they can't update it which is bull s**t).

I shorted them all out.
I'd guess that they're +'ve -'ve and battery status.
Erom is R3A016
I think the main firmware is R1ED001 - that's what it says on the very first line of the software info screen!

Thanks for the info. This is not good if your EROM is already R3A016 but still died. R3A016 supposed to fix this.
You may want to wait until R1JC is online at SEUS. From what I heard it is the most stable and fix most of the bug.

Right, I give up with trying to dismantle my K800 to try and short thr battery, I'm going to be posting it for repair! LOL I just hope they can fix it for me as I don't have the origanal recipit of purchase with the IMEI on it, just an Ebay recipit.
Sorry Sony Ericsson, I'm moving back to Nokia, I kinda fancy the N93... I fell in love with the idea of the N95 with it's Wifi and GPS positioning, but then looked at the price it would prob be, but I'm no way going over the £500 mark for one!

Before you end it off, I didn't need to take mine apart. I just removed the battery and shorted the terminals which are visible looking into where the battery sits. I used a teaspoon as it was the closest thing to hand that would short all 3 at once!

Sorry the flood in JKT kill my internet connection. I am without net for a week.
Well R1GB and EROM CID51 just appear in late December 06/January 07 so I think your EROM CID is definately still 49. Not sure about EROM ver as some country still sell K800 with R3A011 (like Indonesia) and some like Singapore seems to reflash their k800 to R3A016 before selling. Just do *>**
Newest Kulan 1.44 can update even EROM CID51 so it is going to work regardless your EROM CID now (wotan too). Try to use kulan/kulan as login password to Update EROM version. I hope kulankendi haven't change their policy or you may need to buy credit first (although that credit won't be used up if you update EROM Ver)!
So in summary:
You can't update EROM CID (from 49 to 51) for free though. Updating EROM CID need 1 credit. But you can update EROM VERSION (from R3A011 to R3A016 or to fix WSOD/can't turn on) for free.

This EROM isn't a problem anymore. Wotan and Kulan can do that for real. Someone said no credits needed..no need to buy anything..don't know it's true or not. If it is, what a relief.
