ok so i planned on waiting to update my phone until the major firmware release, but my phone had a different plan. I looked at my calender and noticed some of the dates were not there, so I think "Strange". I reset it and now it won't turn on properly. It loads up but midway through the sony icon swirly graphic it stops, then every 10 seconds or so it shows my regular background and says its searching for a provider. It only shows this screen for a second then the screen goes black, does this repeatedly for a few minutes.

SO i thought i would try SEUS, it said i could update to 037, i thought why not. Download it, it loads it to the phone, then when i take out the battery and reset, what do you know. No difference. Still same problems. Now when i connect it to SEUS it still says i can update. And it goes through the whole process again.

Any ideas? As it goes now, i can't use my phone at all.

I had 029 Hong Kong firmware i think before and now i might 037 not really sure.

I live in the USA so there are no sony service centers here to go and have them take a look.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Geoffrey

If you look at menu>settings>update then you can find the software version from there.

You will be able to update again and again but it should tell you if have the latest firmware.

On a side note going to r38 ive also found the camera flash issue is gone and the camera is a little faster. However it does make a noise then focusing now which is strange.

I had this error, it's because one of the latest wndows updates screwed up the registry for the midas.dll file. It's quite simple to fix. I'm trying to find the page of instructions that I used to fix it. I'll put it in this post when I find it...

EDIT: Found it! http://www.eshasoft.com/support.htm at the bottom of the page it goes through how to fix the midas problem.

Ok, so I have also just updated from 037 to 038, and I don't se any difference whatsoever. I checked the FW information on the phone and it is 038.

All my settings are the same as before, the large clock is still there, the menu is still slow and the mega bass is even more shitlike than before!

I'm starting to think I was better off with my k750i :S

P.S.: I have a slovenian Vodafone phone/FW.
