I noticed that after the upgrade on my K750i, certain sounds/volumes have reduced dramatically.
Take for example the voice dialling function where you are asked to speak commands after the beep while you are initially setting up your voice commands -> I noticed that even if I speak loudly and clearly into the phone, the playback is unusually weak and I have a very difficult time in hearing it. Even the "beep" that signals you to speak the command to get recorded is very, very faint! How many times had I had to repeat the process because I missed hearing the "beep" sound.
However, once your voice commands are recorded, the playback is clear and loud enough.
Anybody notice this on their phones after the upgrade??

This perhaps is what people refer to as an inane question.

I'm wondering if the degradation on the volume of some of the alerts is caused by the improvement on the volume quality and disappearance of the hissing sound on low volume calls? Kinda like you trade off one aspect for an improvement on the quality of the other.

Tried to update my W800 to the latest firmware.... but said "no updates available". Anxiously waiting for SE to post the latest firmware. Calls getting cut in the middle sure sounds dangerous. Hope its fixed in the firmware for W800.
Overall I love SE for their good work in the firmware division.
I only hope they do something about the signal reception of the W800 is higher. Maybe there could be an option to increase the reception of the phone at the expense of battery or something.

most probably.. since we didnt change any hardware inside the device... the update should be based on the existing hardware and kinda like juggle a bit of this and of that... kinda weigh things out... nothing extravagant to add (well logically speaking) just tweaking... thats why priorities had to be adjusted.. yeah, good observation.
i also noticed some tweaking done with the radio.. yea altho the volume was tweaked up a bit. but guys correct me if im wrong i think is the RDS option available in the R1N and R1AA versions? or im just feelin kinda silly here?

about the calls being cut-off mid-way, umm havent experienced that with my K750.. does this happen everytime you call and takes you quite sometime?
coz ive tried calling like a conversation of around 25-30mins... havent been cut-off... are you guys listening to music by the time the call was made? or running sumthin else inside the phone? or maybe using bluetooth? can sumone step by step describe how the cut-off was experienced...
much thanks...

In my case, the low volume of reminders began from f/w R1AA008 (I upgraded from R1A044 -> R1AA008 -> R1BC002 ) where background noise was one of the bugs.
