let me qualify this a bit: yes bluetooth/IR is usable in flight mode now, but only if you turn
on (IR doesnt need to be pre-activated) before trying to send anything. i can't remember the exact details on pre-R1GB001 firmware, but when you try to send a file via more > send > via bluetooth, it goes to tell you "function not available in flight mode". now it just doesnt do anything when you try to send without turning
on first. oh well at least we get
in flight mode now.
two things i'd like to see in the next fw upgrade (if they do come out with one): (1) say "function not available in flight mode" when sending via
without pre-activating; (2) an option to turn off icon animations in the main menu. really gets to me watching the things pulsating like crazy

Salaams,
I thought I posted this but it did not seem to appear.
If you are near Kuwait City, go to the main Barak SE service center. Ask for Wilson Beraga. Tell him Don sent you. He may fix it for free. Do not use WOTAN before you go there. Hope this helps.

Why would you want to use BT on the plane when they all request that you do not use BT devices, mobile phones (some airlines allow this), radio transmitters, etc....?

i dont not think i used the word "plane" anywhere in that post. and a "plane" isnt the only place where flight mode can be used. i use it in my gym (where there is no signal) to conserve battery by preventing the phone from unnecessarily and perpetually searching for signal that's not there. anyways..
i'm guessing they added
and IR support in R1GB because people have been ranting about it. i personally think it's better there as an option than not having it at all. i

One thing that bother's me & i'd like to see in the next firmware. When you use best pic it should have an option to save all. As i like to save the whole 9 images to view later on my pc then decide which ones i like to keep or not. Anyone else agree that this would be a useful feature?

Just checked that Bluetooth and Infrared are available in R1GB001 Flight Mode. I never use Flight Mode, so don't even remember whether it's a new feature or not..but yes, I see the option now.
@hanugro:
Anyway, it's great to have smart and helpful Esato member like you here, who always helps other especially in technical way....thumb up for you, hanugro! Keep helping other members. Make Indonesians mean a lot more positive rather just being known as a 'minus' nation. Good job!

What I get on my K800i is:
- GSM and 3G
- GSM only
So, you can choose GSM only all the time. BTW, welcome to Esato.
