I am having R2L, just upgraded a week back, I almost daily transfer data to my phone either via IR or BT but as u said I never get that DING DING sound which i used to get when i was having R2A.

Thanks for that. I've updated my post to include your GPSR icon information.
@jakester2000
Thanks. I've added R2C to the list of firmwares
@samwel
You would think so wouldn't you! However, as far as I remember no official firmware release notes have ever been spotted by anyone here at Esato. If you go into a SE Service Centre and ask what changes there are in the new firmware they have no idea - I usually have to tell them!
@vineet_d & gseth
It seems odd that you two seem to have different ideas on what happens when you transfer files from your PC to your phone via Bluetooth or IR! I have re-added the muted BT/IR comms issue, saying on some phones!
Another thing that people have differing views of is whether BT turns itself off after 4 minutes of inactivity. It should be easy enough to test for those of you with R2L - just turn on Bluetooth and leave it for more than 4 minutes without using it.
Any answers would be most appreaiated

Hi all and mwarner,
Thanks for all the overview. Regarding the BT issue. This is what is happening at my K700i, unbranded one, bought in Croatia with software version R2L:
The BT connection wont go off after 4 mins if I turn it on and leave it like that. No devices added or paired.
But when paired with HBH600 as I mentioned before this is what happens. FE: The phone is on my office table and HBH600 hanging around my neck. I normally use it for conversation. OK. I need to go to toilette which is more than 20 meters from where the phone is. When I come back the BT on the phone turns off (no icon). Totally! I wasn't in toilette for more than 30 seconds. This is just one example. It always happens when I go away from my K700i and it is paired with HBH600.
Hope this helps!
Does anyone have problems with phone freezing while sending MMS and than restarting itself and also with BT freezing (paired with HBH600 again) - the icon that K700i and HBH600 are paired is there, phone is in handsfree profile..., but you can not answer the call from HBH600?
Take care

No problem.
I dont know what is causing this BT issue. At the moment not able to try another headset/phone... it might be HBH600, it might be K700i or anything else. It might be only in my case. I dont know.
Take care

Point to note: With R2C001 the BT does NOT turn off after 4 minutes of non activity and not being paired.

For some strange reason my K700 with software version R2A couldn't be upgraded to a Dutch version so instead they installed R2L (european 2) on it. Now all my (wel most anyway) themes are f**ked up... Has anyone have a clue why these 2 things have occured?
Many thanks!

hmmmmmm im confused lol
i went to my service menu and then software and at the top it said R2A041 (the original FW release yes???)
im getting that annoying 2 second delay for people hearing me talk so i have the sony support centre a phone and the guy said to me theres no FW releases available!
he said that the dont know when and if one will be released it could be tomorrow it could be 3 months!!
as im in N. ireland and theres no Sony service centres i asked about how i could get it up granded "IF and when" the FW was released he said that i could do it via sync with my PC
so question time....Whos has got the R2L001 release? where did you get it done? how much was it? or even better if you have a copy i could sync with
cheers muchly
