Took 3 pics so far, dark part of room, total pitch black part of house & outdoor pic. Flash only went off for the pitch black one, will bear the flash charging in mind.
Looks like all the themes went but not sure, clarity certainly did anyway, FaceWard etc is still there tho.

I can only say that on my o2 phone ive lost nothing after doing 3 master resets on various k850is.
Sorry i cant say for other network branding, but as far as im aware you shouldnt lose them, but i cant say for certain.
Yes i had the same problem with the k700, but the k850 seems to only reset the phone back to factory setting.
But at the end of the day its up to you.
For people who want the original themes for the K850i, you can download them here and then transfer them to your phone via the cable etc

Doing a master reset when I was Voda branded lost my Marble Madness game and my GPRS and MMS settings. Annoyingly it didn't lose the Voda theme! But no worries. you can get Wap, email and mms settings from the
site for free (they send them to your phone for you so you don't have to enter it all up manually, all you have to do is enter your model, phone number and network
here) and if you look
here you will be able to download all the original games and themes that are standard on a generic handset (some branded phones have games specific to their handsets eg. 3 put on a texas poker game)
Edit: On voda I didn't lose my Marble Madness game, I didn't get it at all with Voda. I lost other applications though. Make sure you can get any applications back before you master reset. Also VERY IMPORTANTLY saving your apps to memory card won't stop them being lost in the master reset process! When you master reset the phone 'forgets' that it ever had those applications associated with it and so cannot find them on the memory card! Beware!

Maser Reset has two kind. Reset settigs, or reset all.
if you choose reset settings, you don't need to backup anything, it will just reset all settings your phone and your phone will be as same as just out of the box.
But if you do the reset all, it will remove all your personal things such as ringtones, pictures, themes, etc. If you want do this, you must backup all of your personal things from your phone.
I did, but only one thing you can't restore is Demo tour. Doesn't matter you did back it up and do restore it where exactly it was, The "Demo Tour" menu of your "Entertainment" will not active anymore, but it is not means that you can't play demo video from file manager or media player, it means only menu will not active. Some phones can be restore demo tour but not in case of K850. I did what can I do all, but it doesn't come again.

After reset setting, of course you have to setup internet and mms profile again because it also remove when you do it.
In my case, unbranded K850i from Neterland, it has Marbel Madness and WGA tour, wasn't remove when I did reset all.
FaceWarp, HP Print, Photo Mate wasn't removed.
And two of Theme, Laser Precision and Crystal, wasn't remove as well.

on my o2 I didnt loose anything, i didnt loose my mms or wap settings either as there are programmed in on the o2 branding.
I have also reset a unbranded k850i and the phone didnt loose anything either, only thing on this phone was that the mms and wap settings had to be resent using the SE site.
VF which ive seen now has been updated never came with marble madnes, although you can buy it from VF.

Is anyone experiencing problems with their battery since doing the update ?
Before update I was getting up to 3 days from one charge but now Its only lasting 1 day max. In the 1st 24hrs after updating with SEUS the phone froze and could only be restarted by taking out the battery, any chance that this is why im having problems ??

Unbranded, "Reset Settings", I lost my MMS/Internet, Contact Pictures/Ringtones, Voice Control contacts. and of course, had to reset Themes. I didn't lose actual data, but having lots of contact pics/ringtones, that was tedious.
Been too afraid of "Reset All" as well because I was afraid of losing Original Themes and Games. Also, I have 3 purchased games that I'm not sure if I'd have to buy again. I think that site lets you re-download for a year if you login, though.
