Vodafone UK branded w900i.
Updated using SEUS about 2 months ago.
So far I've noticed:
-Improved handling of mp3 files (it used to skip quite a lot HQ VBR mp3's [--r3mix setting]).
-Improved responsiveness of the device in general (however, this could be subjective).
No WSOD or increased boot times so far (so good).
I can't stress enough this (which is been posted like 1 bajillion times across this forum and others):
Before doing any SEUS (or w/e tool floats your boat) fw update, charge your battery to 100%. If the battery can't produce consistently enough voltage throughout the process, flash will go pete tong or fail altogether. And SEUS is everything but fast.

I just de-branded my Vodafone w900 (I got my games back!) and also flashed my phone to Chinese language, using
Wotanserver. It was quick and painless, and worked like a charm! It only cost me 7 Euros, too!
I have SW version R5BC004, and I have to say, I *love* the icons on this version!!
What is this theme called? Is it on the Sony Ericsson wap site?

It's called 'Backstreet'. I don't know if it's on the Sony WAP site, sorry.

R5BC004 is latest version still. I suspect SE have abandoned this phone. Menu speed is still terrible but you can disable 3G as long as you've got the right CDA set. (Check a few pages back in this thread for how)

Yeah, thats the same one I have. How long does it take for a new fw to come out or is that the last one?
