I think I have a majorish bug with R1N035 on my phone.
Same shit here. I copied 4 folders including MP3's to my memstick thru the USB cable... only the first folder was actually copied to the stick. Next time I tried just a couple of files were copied. Can't really get behaviour pattern...
I also noticed that all my MP3 ring/message signals stored on memstick are corrupt. Sounds like they play too fast and the content comes from my other (music-) MP3 files!! The ring/message signals stored in phone memory are still ok.
All this after upgrading to R1N...

& would copy/transfer all the files out of the mem stick and format the card again using the k750i with R1N f/w and then copy all the files again using the USB cable...
Its a wild guess...

Hi Guys,
How do i access the phone memmory data using the USB cable? I can only access the Memmory card through USB. The phone memmory data just can not be seen.
Also, when browsing on the phone (not on the pc) with the USB cable attatched, the Media Album doesnt display Memmory card data!
I have the latest RN firmware o Orange UK. No other weirdness to report.

Too late... After copying av few new folders of MP3's to the memstick EVERYTHING stored was gone! All folders were empty.
I'm happy I have backed up all my important data such as photos, videos... So now I have formatted the stick and we'll see if anything gets better.

what was the time period between R1L005 and R1L035? Just wondering when SE would next be releasing an update?
I dont see why they dont just get some workers, or users (us), to browse forums, compile a list of the most wanted features/glitches to iron out of the firmware and change it. And actually test it!!
I mean they cant test it very throughly for there still to be bugs in it.
I understand they wouldnt really want to ADD lots of features in a firmware as it would encourage people to keep the same phone instead of buying the next release.

I believe if a device has a potential it should be explored to the max...
That would mean they have to really release products that are better and better and have a sensible amalgamation of features... Better yet we could choose those features... by adding ourselfs the snippets of code to the firmware (like a drop down menu)
But of course business is only a means to make money and somewhere between the consumer and the corporation its the profits that count and just enough technology to keep us on the ever wanting the next better thing yet...
I would rather for once see a product i.e. K750i that worked its socks off to its best hability and not run out of puff at the bt transfer and crash.
Hey what the hell Utopia does not exist and SE amongst others only look at profits we are really the bait and the beta testers for theire 2nd grade w/ 1st grade potential high cost gadjets.
@mrwoll
Ultimately the release of f/w can alredy be calculated by the time laps of the previous releases...
A e-mail to SE support can benefit you with that knowledge...
they should release a firmware that at same time is available to all Neworks...
F/w code as to be its purest which is always more challenging and harder to get right. so fix a bug at the time and release that firmware instead of trying to fix all of it in one go and 2 months later when you can no longer return your phone under the 28 day policy...
rant over.

Updated the first post with details of which firmware will be applied to UK branded phones when using SEUS. Hopefullt this should limits the number of messages stating "my Brand Name K750 only updates to R1L".
I have few details on T-Mobile phones, so if you have a D750 I would be grateful uf you could let me know the CDA and what firmware revision is currently on SEUS.

I agree. It would be awesome if they made the firmware on SE phones something comparable to Linux, where new code can be added to it to modify. But for obvious reasons they wont be doing.
I just dont understand how they fix some things in a new firmware but degrade other aspects?! I mean if it aint broke, leave it alone! (I definately agree with some people that the screen looked less sharp in R1N).
But for all the moaning and groaing about the firmware the phone still remains a quality piece of kit and still like it ALOT. I like it ALLLLOT!

Got my Sandisk 1GB stick today and boy, transferring MP3's through the standard USB cable has already given me two errors.
1st time: I transferred MP3's one by one but after about the 30th MP3, PC reports a corrupt directory and won't let me transfer. I disconnect, check the phone and no MP3's transferred at all.
2nd time: After that 1st error, I pulled out the mem stick, powercycled the phone, put the stick back in and formatted. I then began transferring MP3's again (several at a time instead of one by one). After about 6 MP3's transferred, I disconnected the phone and checked, again no MP3's transferred to the stick.
At this point, I created folders for each set of MP3's in the MP3 directory and transferred MP3's several at a time, and it looks like its working this way so far.
No idea why the file transfer is so unstable but I'm gonna let SE know they should take a look at it for their next FW update.

How many users have noticed that the last update decreased the viewfinder and picture viewer (jpg algorithm?) quality?
Just after the update, when started my k750, it was the first thing i've noticed !
Should a re-update fix the problem?
This message was posted from a K750
