I am beginning to think that there is an issue with earlier builds of the W910i.

When people are posting about whether their phone has issues or is OK, could you also try and include the build week of your phone.

This can be found on the back of the phone, under where the battery goes...

Mine is made in week 41.
Walkman button/menu not working. Games menu not working. Had one random shutdown since the new firmware a couple of weeks ago.

I am going to send it back to SE after christmas if my problems aren't fixed by a new firmware by then.

I had a phone conversation with Sony Ericsson this evening and the news sounds promising.

They are aware of the number of issues with the K850i and W910i and the rep assured me that there would another firmware release before Christmas.

Apparently this will be a software re-write to make the phone stable and solve most of the issues with it...

Here's hoping!

Hello fellow W910i owners. New to this forum so go easy on me. Does anyone understand why the SEUS tells me I have the latest version but the first page of this post tells me different?

My phone has R1CA029 and I would like to get the '039 firmware to see if it fixes the random shutdown/red light problem.

My phone is branded T-Mobile if that makes a difference....and if it does how do I get the update because the guys in the T-Mobile shop just referred me to the SEUS as well which as I said does not work.

This is actually the second W910i as I swappped the first one becasue of the shutdown issue only to find the second one was the same.

All input gratefully received.

Because carriers like to QA and brand the software that comes on their phones, they will upgrade to new firmware at different times.

As for the state of your phone, take it back and demand that you get one that was built after Week 44... if they play dumb, tell them they can find the build week on the back of the phone, behind the battery!
