I'm using R2AL029 rite now, using davinci server to update (finalization take care of the shutter sound, so now no shutter in slient mode)

well i've notice the following differences:
- faster overall (menu, java)
- better reception/voice quality
- slightly better camera picture quality
- time and date font and color seem to change slightly
- faster transfer using infrared/cable
- well i'm using DSS-25 to transfer mp3 into the phone, using K700 Dateimanager (available at http://k700.hitziger.net) and with R2AE033 the transfer rate is 8.5-8.9kb/s. But with this version I can get 10.0-10.3kb/s (sorry don't have chance to try BT transfer but i expect improvement too)
- and of course very stable, same as R2AE033

note: for people complaining about the speed of SE's file transfer this program can use almost the full potential of cables and way faster (better then FMA too~)

@newumbrella418

Did you notice that the color of the shadow for icons in dialogs have changed from dark grey to very light grey? (Or is it just my flash that is messed up?) Try to change profile and see the icon that appears in the window to tell you the new profile is active... is there a change of the shadow color compared to your earlier firmware? I think this new light grey shadow looks bad - real bad! Kind of like something is wrong with the firmware. I even re-flashed with the same result, so it's probably this new firmware that has changed and is supposed to look like this... please confirm!

Im new in all this firmware stuff. I am actually having a problem wiht my reception where its giving me the worst recetion in the world. Now i have been trying to attack and problem but many people told me to update the firmware. My phone was locked to O2 but was unlocked, just some additional information. I can manage to get the cable i guess. Just can anyone provide me wiht some links perhaps and let me know if this will solve my problem. Iv been verrrry fustrated. Thanks.

Hmm u know I've already kinda forgot wut R2AE033 menu look like.

Edit: Oh actually i know what u mean now, so u mean that the shadow now is so light that u can barely see it rite? Same on mine but it's no big deal i think (cuz i don't use the profile function hehe).

Yes this firmware is universal for all K series.

sa11: If you want to be safe I would recommend you to get DSS-25 and use SE's offical update service to perform the update, because the other servers might have chance that it'll corrput the firmware on the phone.
