I agree... My W950i is lasting days between charges with normal phone, music, and radio usage. BTW, my W950 came with a 950 mAh battery whereas the specs in the user manual claim that it should only have a 900mAh. What version of the battery does your W950i have? Maybe that's the difference.
As for the RSS feeds... My unbranded W950 has the RSS feeds application and it works just great (I use it every day). Thus, if you don't have it, then it's most certianly is an O2 branding issue going on there.

@OfficeMaven
Many thanks for the info re the RSS feeds although it makes no sense you would of thought these Networks would like you racking up Data usage and charges. Maybe there trying to save you money? very strange IMO.

Not necessarily a bug, but they may have possibly chosen to omit it from their (initial) firmware version?
Can someone with a (presumably) O2 branded handset post their firmware versions with the CDA too?
I've checked Orange and 3 handsets, both had different CDA to my ungranded handset.

Hey guys.
So i have a sim free W950i now, such a beautiful phone.
Ive noticed one or two things with it.
I enjoy lots of dance albums where having gapless playback is quite important to me, so far the w950i is quite disapointing in not supporting gapless playback.
The supplied headphones are nice and i love having the remote control, however i can't help but think that my w800i headphones were slightly better, also i don't think any of the supplied foam heads suit my ears, so i may substitute them for my other sony headphones.
I have my 950 set to auto lock while not being used, unlocking the phone while playing music sends a nasty click down the headhones (i haven't tried without the headphones on yet).
my phones firmware is R9C001.
I love this phone and my only problem with it is deciding what music to fill it with (roll on 30gb flash memory phones). hopefully my only 2 real problems with it will be fixed in a firmware.
One nice thing i discovered this morning when transferring some music. an album i had in WMA was re transcoded at a great bitrate (from what i can tell) of MP3 using disc2phone. that was very nice but i do hope they can get WMA support on there as standard. I'm just glad it wasn't AAC (or whatever)

My phone details are:
Phone
CXC162037 R9C001
Bluetooth
CXC162058 R3A01
Organiser
CXC162088 R1B01
CDA
CDA162017/8 R1A08
Hope this helps.
On another matter, I downloaded a theme for the w950i from the SE website, installed it, but have no idea how to make it 'work' It insists on having a 'dd' extension.

I don't know if this will help but for the M600 i downloaded it from the SE website via WAP and installed it as that's what it told me to do.

Buttoneer, if you try and download via a PC, the DD file is an XML file.
You need to open the file with a text editor (Windows Notepad or Wordpad are fine) and copy the web address of the actual file from inside the XML. It's easy enough to do and then all you do is paste the address into your web browser to download the file.
Themes for the W950i have an extension of .utz
Yes it's a bit of a hassle to download the files but hey, at least you're not paying your mobile network extortionate charges to download directly onto your phone via WAP.
I hope this helps you.
