@Raiderski one more question. How did you extracted the files? Because I can't find any tool that does this for k850?
On more time, thank you.

Hi Guys,
This is my first post, but i've been browsing the forum for a while (well ever since i got my K850, surprisingly) I've read a few posts but am still a bit confused, wonder if anyone can help me.
As soon as I got the Phone (early december) i debranded it (as soon as it was charged, before ringing to register the new sim etc) to get rid of the Orange (UK) software, using Davinci. It is however, still sim locked to Orange.
Once debranded and activated I managed to use SEUS to get the R1CA037 software which got the camera etc working well. So far I've had no problems (touch wood) other than the phone rebooting itself a couple of times within the first week of getting it.
The battery life seems really poor unless i switch off 3G & Bluetooth which makes it last about a week, so I'm hoping the software update will fix this.
Which software update are we waiting for? SEUS and my phone keep telling me i am up to date even thought all the forums say 038 is out and now i hear a lot of you are waiting for 039?

You will not be able to get 038 on an unbranded phone. 039 is 3 (the network) specific. What we are waiting for is a new firmware to fix the bugs and sluggish software on the phone at present. That will be the new firmware.

I Think people are going to die today... heard at least 3 or ore users who said would dies if this Firmware don't arrive until today...
I think it won't come, and seriously. No until the end of the month.
I think maybe Sony Ericson is facing real problems to get this K850i fixed, due to limitations of hardware aginst software...
But if one day it comes may be a reaaly big improvments... Or the fail of Sony Ericsson that could do a flagship phone work proplely how the box said..

R1DA038 and R1DA039 are very almost the same firmware and are only for
network branded phones the only difference is that the '3' need a little more customisation on their firmware to make it work with all their services.
Your 037 firmware shouldn't have too much in the way of battery problems if you keep the 3g on but only disable bluetooth. Bluetooth is a killer for battery life.
There is a major new firmware to be released. No-one knows what the index of the firmware will be but it's been stated on the

website as being released in January. It should fix most if not all of the major problems, but don't expect to not bring up new problems of it's own or not fix some of the less common problems.
