Hi everyone. This is a really enlightening thread from which I've learnt a lot but, wouldn't you know it, I've got a couple of questions.
My K800 was originally an O2 contract phone, but I updated the firmware using WotanServer to R1ED001 back last year. In the process losing the couple of applications I baught from the SE site. Now I'm looking to update to the R1GB001 firmware (who isn't?). So:
1. Has anyone with a UK phone managed to use SEUS to upgrade to R1GB001 yet? I've been comparing signatures to Yes's but I haven't any from the UK yet.
2. If the answer to (1) above is 'Yes', why can't I? My understanding is that the WotanServer firmware will use the generic SE firmware and I won't have to wait for the O2 variant.
3. Anyone know if it's possible to redownload applications baught from the SE site? Losing stuff I've paid for when I upgrade the firmware is a pain, though I understand that this won't happen with a SEUS update.
4. Okay, I see glorfingal answered one of my questions before I even posted it, impressive, and it looks like I should be able to update the firmware by now. So perhaps I have the wrong firmware region. Which one should I have? I'm thinking this one (in WotanServer notation): K800_CXC1250490_EUROPE_2_R1GB001_RED49.wtf. Is that the right?
Thanks again.

New BUG on R1GB: (k790a)
if anyone else can confirm this, when using USB transfer, it only sees the memory stick as a drive not the phone memory anymore.

R1GB001 findings:
-Now you have the animated desktop icon effect when you highlight or hover over each one. This animation is similar like what K750i has. Nice to see the animated highlighted icon on desktop again.
- 2 seconds delay is still present when accessing internet in this SEUS version.
- Some mp3 files like Alien Noise, Jangler and Pulse of SE fun&downloads originals are still impossible to play back.

Well looking forward to see one. Neither my old S700 nor my wife Z610 is animated. SO my k800 will be the first animated menu that I have.

Good to hear that!

Well, just a suggestion, can you extract the mp3 and play it in PC? Then you may use mp3 editor and resave it (maybe at different bitrate) and put it back to the phone. Maybe they can play after this.

The 2 seconds delay for internet button is not a bug... SE did it to prevent something.

Yeah the 2 second thing was to prevent accidental connection to the internet, which costs a lot of money with some providers.
Shame to see a bunch of bugs still on the phone. I'm glad I got off the Sony Ericsson train while I could. Bought the N73ME v3 and I can say it works quite well, despite the crappier camera.
