I am back again to share my experience in the R1EA033 firmware that I updated last week. I am quite amazed at the increase in battery power after updating to R1EA033. Right now my battery meter shows 16% and it's been more than 4.5 days since my last full charge (it's going to be 5 full days when I wake up tomorrow morning at this rate).

I have not noticed any new bugs with firmware R1EA033, and everything seem to be working fine for me (camera, walkman, call, text, etc..). Also, the menus scrolling seems a bit smoother/faster, but it's not a major boost in speed (still a bit of lag but since R1EA030 walkman function already run significantly faster compared to R1CA029).

Ridiculous battery drain was the only issue that I was experiencing when I was on R1EA030, therefore I can not speak on behalf of everyone that may have experienced different problems with their customized firmware.

What I have said above ties to this Customization/CDA#:
1201-4321 R10A
1200-5451 R1EA033
APAC-AZN

Take Care, hope updated firmware become available to you soon and fixes the problems you are experiencing.

Did almost waste 25 Euro to update to 033. First I re flashed it to generic firmware, but SEUS don't even want update the phone coz it says it has the new one, even it was on R3C, try later again with customz via davinciteam, then try later via SEUS and updated to R3EA033..

I hope battery time is much better than R3EA030.. my hope..

I really wish you good luck Silver, hope your R1EA033 upgrade can help improve your battery problems. With today's busy life schedule and technology like bluetooth battery life is really the key to mobility.

I have also noticed battery life is about 50% longer than before.I can get nearly 3 days of heavy use out of the phone now wheras about a day before.Bluetooth connection between the W910 and HBH-GV435 is better now with no disconnection while on a call. still have to set my theme everytime i restart the phone though and media is still a bit slow when played through bluetooth.

Have tried moving the theme over to the phone memory but still get the same thing happen. If i use any theme other than the default ones. When i turn the phone off and back on again the phone loads the Walkman theme and I have to set my theme again regardless weather its in the phone memory or the memory stick. Both of my Silky White W910's do this.

remove M2 from the phone then set your theme if the problem continues backup your phone and try Master reset-Reset settings if nothing try Master reset-Reset all

Have tried doing that on my other W910 and still no different.Even did a full erase of the phone software and complete reinstall and reflash via Davinci but still the same.Can't be the phone as i have 2 08W14 W910's and also an 07W43 W910 that show the same problem.All 3 phones have a 4gb memory stick in them and the memory sticks have also been checked in other phones and work fine when setting themes.
