Eversince posessing the phone for five days, it had crashed two times with a white screen splash and total freeze-up. Removal of the battery was the only help to solve the issue. Other than that, the FW seems to be quite stable in playing with menu and using standard functions.
Hope this restart issue will be solved in the next FW versions.
Also, as smn had already noted in a separate thread here, I can't seem to find the Update Service for K800i on SE website. Maybe this is due to unavailability of next FW for the phone at the moment.

Mines on O2 but had a few niggles with mine but overall a far superior phone to the K750. I presume Firmware updates with fix the bugs.
One problem I noticed was I copied a large file to the Memory Card and after deleting it the free space didn't go down. I had to eject the Memory Card for the free space count to be reset

I am really disappointed that there isn't a light for video recording. That is absolutely rubbish. I feel a bit robbed.

I've found a bug on my K800 (R1CA018) which is the inability to use numbers to jump to sub-menus on the File Manager, which brings up the ABC search facility instead as if you're in the address book (and then jumps seemingly at random through the list). It almost looks as though it's jumping to item 4 if you press 4, but it doesn't always!
And, opening the camera cover should activate the camera from any mode but usually doesn't. Even holding the camera button won't always activate it. I know that some Java applications will prevent the camera being usable, but if you're in the menu and want to take a photo then it should be possible without having to hold back up and wait. Why have BestPic to not miss the moment if it can take 10 seconds to fire up the camera!!
Firmware update please.

So, I've got myself one of these K800 phones, and I've found the following problems/niggles/questions, although I'm going to have another play tonight in case I did something wrong:
1) When recording voice activation words, the beep you wait for is very quiet, i.e. I can't hear it.
2) I can only program in 10 groups (a bit odd, a multiple of 2 would be more logical).
3) I can only put a maximum of 15 people in each group.
Anyway, that amounts to a maximum of 150 people that can be grouped. I think I read somewhere you could have 1000 contacts. That doesn't seem to add up to me.
4) I'd like it if the contacts were arranged by groups, with the little +/- symbol to expand them, similar to mail folders in outlook...
5) If someone's house address is long, it doesn't fit, i.e. if they have a house name instead of number.
6) There doesn't appear to be a fill flash, e.g. if it's light enough for the autoflash to be off, but the subject is in the shade (Trying to get a cat to pose in the sunlight is quite tricky...).
7) Will I be able to upload new firmware via my USB cable?
I don't think much of the software bundle.
Only 6 really bothers me though.
Other than that, it's fantastic!... although I might find some more...
Oh, and I get that white screen business, and the occasional lock-up (for a few seconds) as well as the green line in video mode.
Cheers,
Rob.

Ah bugger, thought of something else.
I know there is a plane mode, but is there also entertainment mode, i.e. switch of the phone HW?
I'm likely to use this phone just for entertainment quite often when abroad, so don't need all the phone stuff enabled, but plane mode switches off the radio.
Anyone know a way of just switching off the phone?
