Next, the R2D version has not been officially released by SE UK, although the service centres have it. If they are offering to install it SE do not mind since the service centre takes responsibility if anything goes wrong after the install. SE UK said they will be formally releasing R2D in two weeks.
Well the new software is not on EMMA2 yet. Checked it yesterday, a lot of customers phoned in. Could perhaps only the high volume repair centers have R2D? Anyone else her who works at an SP got a clue? Cytech?

>> Were you charged for your upgrade? I've seen on my-symbian.com that R's electric, who I usually go to, are charging £15+VAT for upgrades unless a fault can be proven.
I haven't had the upgrade done yet but they said it would be free of charge.

So my flasher works and I have successfuly flashed my P800 with the latest firmware.
I have to disappoint all of you, there is no UIQ 2.1,
but we've got the SMS delivery reports (with time stamps), and also the night mode and mute shutter options for CommuniCam. Moreover, it is possible to select more than one media file in Pictures/Video/Audio. Fullscreen picture viewing and fullscreen video playback have been added too. The screensaver is different, the Sony Ericsson logo has been replaced by animated 3D cubes. The last concern worth mentioning is that I was unable to restore the phone backup, so I am reinstalling everything from the scratch.

@Firebird2k:
Currently you cannot flash the P800 unless you have the original EMMA II flasher software with smartcard, hardlock and corresponding flash interface.
I have written my own flasher software for all common GSM Ericsson/SonyEricsson phones and designed my own cable (the T28 service cable simply won't do).
Our local SonyEricsson servicepoint is lazy to download new firmwares for P800 because of their size (about 36MB), anyway this firmware is not available to them... Btw, they flash the phone in 65 minutes and I do the same job in 18 minutes, at 8x higher communication speed (921600Bd).

Any plans to release either your software or the specs for your cable?
