OK...
I've upgrade my firmware to K800_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52 & K800_R8BA024_FS_APAC_RED52 using xs++. Here is what I found so far.

1. In previous firmware R1KG001, if I put SIM card that I've been put in before, the phone will never ask for the setting wizard. But not this new R8BA024, it always ask for setting wizard. You see, I have 3 SIM card, and I swap it at least once a day. It's a kind annoying.

3. Actifity menu is OK. But if you organize it, like sorting, you'll find a tiny lag.

4. Saving photo with timestamp took about 5 sec to save in phone memory, and about 10 to 15 sec to save in M2. I think it's because the M2. I use Sony 512 mb M2 before and never get this timestamp problem. Now I use Sandisk 1 G M2 I always get this timestamp problem no matter what firmware I use (But I could be wrong, I wish somebody can confirm about this).

5. Every time I turn on my phone, it always ask me to format my M2. It never happen in R1KG001. Maybe it's because I have formated my M2 in FAT32 with computer. So I backup my M2 to my comp, then I format it with my phone, then I put back the backup to M2... problem solved...

6. When I listen to a song from media player with handsfree, then I play tennis, the media player stops. I found it too in R1KG001 but not in R1GB001.

7. Watching video with video player is OK. the backlight is off after 1 video, then back on again within the next video. Unlike R1KG001 you have to push a button to activate backlight again. And there's something about the video, the picture is more sharp.

So far so good, thats all what I've found.

I don't know about that but they say there are improvement in sound and camera inside MAIN firmware (Also JAVA). But I haven't try it yet, and I've just update via SEUS. Now it is R1KG001 again...

Anyone care to help me download from TopSony? I've posted 22, and I've also sent in my request to be allowed to download (but it's taking forever for them to confirm...)

I'd like 4 files please (FS and Main files), if it's not too much trouble to ask hehe.

1)
K800_R1KG001_MAIN_TAIWAN_WI_RED52
K800_R1KG001_FS_TAIWAN_RED52

and

2)
K800_R8BA024_MAIN_TAIWAN_WI_RED52
K800_R8BA024_FS_TAIWAN_RED52

Any help appreciated thanks! Uploading to your 4shared will be suffice, and I'll be able to get it from your 4shared!

I've had R1JG001 since day 1, and I'd like to compare and contrast R1KG001 and R8BA024
