To try and answer the questions regarding the EROM and CID 51
Currently it is not ava to update the EROM using SEUS. I also dont beleive that it would be possible as you have to press more than 1 key and then remove the battery and re replace it.
Customers using the SEUS dont want to be messing about like that also some wont like to keep removing and replacing the battery.
The EROM is the BIOS of the phone and yes is the part that the Boots the phone. However the CID is also an extension of the phone EROM and the CID has been created to improve the security and boot sequence.
The new update is partly a way round in updating the boot sequence of the phone.
There has been a service adivisory out for the EROM of the SE K800 phone for a while but this is for the SE service centers only.
There are only people that read the internet etc that no about the problem, normaly when people get a fault they send it into the shop and says its stopped working, Shop repairs it and he cusotmer is happy.
The EROM doesnt afftect all K800is only some of them and it wold be impossible to do a recall on them as people dont register there phones etc.
As there is no major problem with the handset like catching fire, blowing up etc. There is no need to issue a public statment.
Many Millions of people will never update the phone or even have any problems.
I hope the above makes sense. If you need any help or want any more info then please pm me.
Many thanks for the explanation. So less worry for those who has upgraded to R1GB. Yeah I think considering so many k800 sold, the one who is searching the net actively is the one who has a problem or question and that is small percentage of failed k800.

@darrengf and hanugro:
Thanks for the enlightment. The moral lesson is as long as everything runs well, don't worry so much. So, don't fix what is not broken. Once again thanks.

WSOD can be fixed by rewrite EROM. BTW, it is known bug. Don't use the video thumbnail but use the list.
