@mistadabolin
Unfortunately it will be until the next firmware is released. Then the K850's camera should start to shine.

@kjao
Mine always charges to 100%, but like you say, it then starts to drop. I'd say it's a firmware bug as this doesn't happen on other SEs.

Hi all
Had my K850i fo a month and a half. Have had no real major problems, apart from the dreaded operation failed message when trying to access my messages. A master reset sorted that out thankfully. No though, well as of last night, I noticed that the shutter doesn't open on the phone when I go in to camera mode... Get a high pitched whine instead. Anyway, trying to resolve it now with O2 but looks like a fault and a replacement! Which I don't mind too much as I dropped the phone 2 weeks after I got it and nicked two corners on the front of the phone, which bugs me every time I pick it up!

Just hope they replace it with a new one!

@DJKarlos2006
You're better off with a replacement, especially from O2 as you're guaranteed to get a very recent build and latest firmware, so you shouldn't have any further problems.

'Sebby'

Do O2 actually hand out newer builds as replacements? I was informed that they hand out the same builds but with 037, which is why I was debating whether or not to send mine back as I would still be vulnerable to other bugs..

I can't say for certain as I'm not on O2, but from what I've heard they're new builds.

OK, well now I am much more tempted to send my K850i back to O2 for a replacement...

I've already posted this in another thread but this one seems a lot 'busier' so I thought I'd post my problem here too.

I've just received my k850i and am experiencing the problems with the flash which are adressed very well in other threads on here but I've got a couple of other queries:

1) I can't seem to change ISO level.
The radio button against 'AUTO' is selected but when I scroll down to ISO 100, ISO 200 and ISO 400 I can't select any of these options. There are no radio buttons against the ISO choices.
For example I scroll down to highlight ISO 200 and the select button changes to an 'i' and if I press it it comes up with a message "Currently Unavailable"

2) Same with MACRO. It seems as though this funtion is always in AUTO mode with no way of selecting either MACRO or INFINITE. When I try to select them then I get "Currently Unavailable"

Am I just doing something wrong or is my phone faulty?

cheers

Did you select a preset of options (=scene(like landscape/sports/snow)) ??
If yes, then you can't adjust it any more. turn all of them to auto/normal and then check again.

Perfect thanks!
I knew it would be something simple like that!
