Using multiserver i've come to the conclusion that it's rubbish.
don't touch the R2AA files (the only ones on their server) with a very long barge pole!

Yeh it pisses me off to but its the only one with instant credits :/ , it does however have free firmware upgrades / downgrades which is a plus , however it dosn't allow you to download firmware without credits :|. If anyone downloaded any of the r2l files and wants to share them with people.
UPLOAD
ftp://uploadf:uploadf@wildmeep.myftp.org
DOWNLOAD
ftp://firmware:firmware@wildmeep.myftp.org
The server was originaly setup for cellular support when they were haveing bandwidth issues but i kept i open after that and it still recieves lots of traffic. It's got some updated firmware for the t630/t610 as well , i think its r6d.
Note: Only download what you need , loads of people have been downloading all the flash files , like all the languages . I have very limited bandwidth and if i catch anyone doing this it'll be kick ban time.

Hi guys. One question. Changed my phone (paid extra of course) and the first one was
r2a041
cda 102298/18 r24a
cxc 125822 r1a
eu_2,
while the second one is
r2aa003
cda 102286/11 r2a
cxc 125822 r2a003
emea_4.
Spoken to Vee, and he suggests that I keep this one, so do U agree ? And why is it that everyone mentions emea_2, and I have emea_4 ????

hi,
second one is R2AA003 if I got it right and the first one is R2A041?
EMEA_2 has this languages: EN / HR / CS / SR / SL / SK
EMEA_4 has this languages: EN / RO / HU / BG / RU
that's the only difference

you have to flash to your phone EMEA_2 language and customization pack. you can do it with one of the unofficial solutions mentioned on this forums or try to do it legally, but I doubt you'll have success.

@ vee
Never mind, I do know how to use english
Here is my review of my R2AA003 after using it for one day :
- the phone meni is much faster
- viewing of the photos also
- when answering the call that is on waiting, the person who calls U can actually hear U (problem from R2A041)
- mp3 sounds better when ringing (or is it just my imagination ?)
- BATTERY LASTS AT LEAST 50% LONGER (had a 75min conversations, 10 sms sent and received, meni, calendar and phonebook browsing, and still 15% of battery full, on stand by from 7am up till now)
- when typing the name while searching in the phonebook, U can actually type not 4, but as many letters as U wish (only the first four can be seen though), so U can type the name that U R looking for entirelly, the only problem is the mentioned non-abillity to delete the mistyped letters
- no freezing, and problems when calling others (E.G. in R2A041, sometimes the phone freezes itself when calling is displayed, and U have to remove the battery and put it back, or U get the call, but hear nothing, and can't end it untill U restart the phone also by removing the battery)
- can mute the camera when in silent mode
- CAN NOT FIND THE MINUTE MINDER OPTION !!!!! (Where is it ????)
- no problem with sms that was posted before
- no sound delay when answering (at least none that I have noticed)
- and only one bug (when scrolling over the mp3, midi, and other files in the sound dir, while holding the joistick (up or down), the phone "freezes" at the same points for 1 or 2 sec, and then gets to normal, remembering the numer of presses made by joistick and moving up or down as much (not a big bug, in my opinion)
- QUESTION - What is the Jbenchmark (or something like that), and how can I check it ?
Of course, my k700i R2AA003 is a 04w33, and battery is BKB 193 191/12 R1A 700mAh 04W37 (LiPolymer)
And to conclude, haven't used the R2L, but am very sattisfied with this firmware (at least so far), MUCH BETTER THAN R2A.

U can not use multiserver and downloaded files if U have no credits, because it will all be OK untill U try to upgrade fw, language pack and cust. file. Therefore, do not try this, 'cause it will kill your phone, staying flashed and totally empty. Even if U have these files, as I see U do (so do I), U can not use them completely without one credit.

Mm i see what you meen , even if you can flash the firmware for free you cant flash the language file for free . And you need them both to be the same version .

is it possible to update the firmware only without the language using multiserver?
