What was the speaker issue?
There was a distortion in the speaker. A sort of crackling, breaking sound making it hard to hear the other person...

heh. Yeah. Or they could at least do a visual test on it before launching the phone..
I think you're right about the hardware fault. I mean, after the last firmware, I don't have the smear and the tint across the entire screen. And to be honest, I don't spot any real problems with the pictures even on pretty low light (even if I can see I have more noise on the lower right than elsewhere in the picture when it's dark). And the focus- problems I had are much less obvious now. So imo, if you do notice problems in fairly good light on the new firmware - then there's too much noise on the sensor, and it should be changed (or repaired, or masked, or whatever it is they do). Because even if the sensor they've used isn't extremely good anyway, and the colours look like crap sometimes, the shades seem to be more severe on some phones. (I've never had anything like the picture a little further up in the thread, for instance, with the blue and light green cmyk- test, even if I thought the pictures I took were ridiculously bad as well..).

I'll post some pics soon so you can look at it yourselves but either the replacement or the firmware upgrade seem to really have helped (and the speaker issue is over as well).
Hey dagrim1.. it would be nice if you could post some photos here
I'm still contemplating of pursuing RMA, since I dont have a back up cellphone at this point.

The picture below is not a Hubble supernova photo, but an highly exagerated color enhanced photo of the lack of color precision of the P1 CMOS sensor.
Notice the green tint on the right and the magenta exageration on the center.

Dude, was that originaly a photo of something with a constant colour? (obviously before you changed contrast like mad and probly many other colour enhancing effects
)

It's not a professional CSI work, but I believe it's good enough to demonstrate the error.
The original photo was of a white sheet of paper under sunlight and no shadows. I took several pictures from several angles and the result is consistent.

@_LAU_ well that sure does emphasise the effects that are seen on the photos. Really is a let down on the side of
though, just now it looks like with it being a hardware fault there is a low chance of it being fixable by firmware.

Those results are from my P1 sensor, but I'm not sure how reliable are the results compared with other sensors.
By the way, this is software correctable, but I don't believe Sony Ericsson has the will or programmers good enough to make it happen.
