why do you need to let it die?
also, you dont need full battery to update firmware..it just says to make sure you have battery for the update...so it wont go off while updating.
Btw, no 038 here yet on western europe (or central, dont remember - holland)
Duran it seemns we have the same region...please when you can get your update post it here... I do the same if i can update to the 038

Got my battery down to 9% by turning the radio on and leaving it playing. Hopefully it'll die very shortly then I can charge it up and update it!!

Updated today to R1DA038 (K850i O2 UK version) and can also see some improvements on the BT part.
Now my K850i perfectly synchronizes (contacts and call list) with my BT car kit.

There may be more network branded ones. so if any one can update with theres i will then add to list.
Unbranded phones co far
HK Region
Possible Western Europe.
If any one can confirm

I have an unbranded phone with Western Europe R1CA037.
I just tried SEUS with United States English and it goes through all of the motions like it found an update and installs it but when I go back to check the version, it is still R1CA037.
Should I pick a different county in SEUS?
I do live in the US.

Umm... iunno if I'm right on this, but doing this kills your lithium-based batteries... letting it die is seriously not recommended for these... I've checked out a lot of sources on the internet and most if not all mention not to let lithium (eg. Li-ion, Li-Poly) batteries go dead before recharging them. Some sites say to do this once in a while for batteries that need calibration though.

I always thought that you should let them die occasionally? In the same way that you should charge them for at least 12 hours when you first get them then repeat this every so often?

Yeah I just made an edit to my post, I kept on reading and it says "occasionally" you should let it die to reset its "memory". Perhaps you shouldn't do it too often though!

It doesnt make any difference on which country you pick. All the updates go thorugh one main server.
I would try again soon, Mine didnt show anything and went through all the motions, the the next day it looked like the samething was happening. This time the phone updated with the new firmware. Very strange indeed.
I would think that they are starting to put the new firmware on slowly
