One thing I've noticed on the new K850i (which I picked up this morning from DHL) is that the status information has now changed. On my K800i you pressed the 'down' softkey on the side of the phone and it would display. On the 850 this now controls the ring volume. Any way to change this - i'm thinking that there's not a way.
are there different firmwares out as my phone has this feature?

rickster2kuk,
I just created a shortcut to it in my shortcut menu (the one next to the make cal button) not quite as quick to get to as the k800 was but still easier than going through all the menus
Cheers

Phone does not have a dedicated play/pause button.
I have a blue K850i
My firmware version is O2 R1CA029.
My volume keys do not bring up the standby information like the K800i did.
Themes included on mine are:
Clarity
Colourite
Crystal
Laser Precision
Luminosity
O2 Theme

@ curacao
No play/pause button I'm afraid, but the left-hand softkey is directly into 'Media' (at least it is on my Vodafone firmware). It's not quite the same but this is a Cybershot phone and they obviously feel it doesn't fit in with the newer UI.
@ indup
The networks that have the phone out already (O2 and Vodafone currently in the UK) have their own branded firmwares as far as I can see. On top of that there will be a generic
firmware. Each should have slightly different functionality, e.g. the O2 firmware could use the lower zoom/volume button for ring volume and the Vodafone uses it for status. My Vodafone branded K850 uses it as a status check. I would think that is the same as on the
firmware as it is on pretty much all other
phones.

Awesome thanks for the thread.
Wondering if this can be a suggested tip.
Many ppl are hoping for a dedicated play/pause button. If I recall the K850i has a camera/video/play slider on the right side, right? if in the Play mode can the center soft key be pressed?
If not then does anyone have the HPM-82 headset - wired - where there IS a play button by the microphone and does THIS work?

No. That's only for the camera. has no effect on anything else.
besides, you wouldn't be able to get into the main menu then without flipping the switch back.

Do the volume buttons work for you during a call/during music playback etc?
