Does anyone know if the brightness of the LCD screen is adjustable on the R2L update? I have the R2A and find that it is way too bright and I think this is one of the reasons why the battery is getting drained quickly. I would like to be able to turn down the brightness to the level where the phone dims the light just before the phone goes on standby & turns the light completely off...it does it only for a couple of seconds. I think if I can have it on this level, standby time should improve by as much as 30%
I bought the phone 3 days ago on O2 (UK) (have previously returned Samsung E700, Nokia 6230 on 14-day peace of mind) and I personally think it is one of the best phones on the market...if only battery....!which currently lasts for about 2-3 days

Upgraded mine here in the Philippines to R2l. But several files were corrupted, the theme files I just have to recopy them but the tennis game won't start and hungs. I have to turn off the phone to bring it back to normal. It hungs after I select tournament on the menu and switches to the Sega Wow loading screen but nothing happens.
Anybody experienced this?

@K700iSingapore,
I have the same two that you have. I am not sure if this disconnection is normal or if this is just another bug. Either way, the battery life is now respectable.

Well I have had R2L001 loaded on my phone all day..and by this time of the day (HEAVY Phone user !!!!!) I would have had to go look for the little old power plug...and today....the beast has just started moving in to the red...looking at the call times (Durations OutBound) on my on-line bill I have knocked up 2.5 hours (Out Bound) today...so a vast step forward from the R2A...
I read last night here on the board about this new software, and rushed out this morning to get it loaded, if the K700 holds up for the rest of the day..then I will retire my Nokia and be fully SE dependand (SEP900 & K700)...oh and BTW Well Done SE for making this happen...
I'll report back on how the beast is doing...as a heavy user's phone ..lets see my best times up untill now were on a T68i...ummmmm me wonders...

This question has been posted before but there is no answer.
In the R2L, is there a brightness control in the display settings?
I’m asking that coz I heard that in the new FW the screen become brighter, so I’d like to control the brightness of the screen like the T610.

I'll try to have my K700i upgraded (R2L Firmware) this weekend at Semicon/SM Southmall
I just hope that all is well . . . or else, I guess I'll be needing a new 'paperweight'
