HK's CS advised me not to upgrade to R2L
She said it can't use BT to connect palm or PPC

She said a new version will release in around 2 weeks

@Derek456

AHHHH..........

I have just upgraded to R2L and I don't have any problems transferring data to and from my iPAQ H5550 the K700, but when I try to connect to my ISP or dial a contact via the dial via bluetooth option I get the following error message,

"This applet requires the serial port profile (SPP) on the remote phone"

So I think you may have something here. Has anyone else experienced this or can give it a try?

Forgot to add, I have no problems when I connect via my T610.

Just got off the phone from SE UK - There is no new firmware available for K700i in the UK.


That's conflicting information. I'm sure many UK people have been told that there are new f/w available?

i have heard that it depends on the "level" of SE service centre you call. (according to someone either on esato or another forum)

supposedly there are about 3 levels of service centre? Level 1's dont have a clue usually, where as level 3's would get the firmware updates first and actually know something about a mobile phone.

i emailed the sony ericsson support from their website. they too said no updates were available. Grrr!

It would be nice if they had a little consistancy throught their company!!!

It would be great if you can post where you got your new firmware. My SE sevice cetre has nothing and SE tech desk also said there is no new firmware at all.
When I told her about posts on this site the SE lady told me people must be using 3rd party software.
How can SE themselves not know what is going on????

I've just come across quite a big bug in the R2L firmware. I was going to capture a concert on video with my K700 when, in the middle of filming, the phone display started blinking black and white. It restarted itself atleast 5 times in a row within 20 seconds.

Quite anoying...

I've been waiting for some weeks now for someone to post these 2 awesome changes in R2L001, but what do I see/read? Nothing!

I promised by god I wouldn't post no more, but since nobody actually noticed these things I'll make "one" exception just to incurage people to upgrade...

1. When connecting to GPRS, there is an icon of a new large globe displayed in the front window with lots of moons flying around it. It actually looks very nice!

2. The sms sound is now different when you recieve a notification saying that an sms has been delivered. This is very good since you now can tell if the sms you recieve is a "real" sms or just a "notification" of a delivered one without looking at the phone. The sound is the same as for bluetooth transfer notification and it can't be changed.

Over and out (hopefully)...

@CyberVisitor

The change in GPRS icon has been noted before, but not the SMS Delivery notification sound change! I'll add it to the Firmware Overview page:
