Update is definatly available for me, checked today. Don't see the point though, camera is brill, phone is quick, stable, and all this seems to do is improve media player speed and mine is nearly instant. I'll wait for the new A200 firmware with the updates seen in the c902
there is a pretty big improvement on overall speed though... (Check Jbench results)
My K850i has been BROD free untill now, but this may be due to the fact that is has been "repaired" (=> flashed in repair) by SE...
Maybe there are no software "flaws" when SE flashes your phone?

Sure there's been some major speed improvements...but that's only because on 029 it was ULTRA slow and now it's just slow...

I really don't know if my phone is special, cause speeds are instant and i have 2gb in my phone, and when i search for some music in my library it takes less than a fith of a second to bring back results.
Personally I think sony have brought out two versions of the k850, cause i got mine in feburary and their hasn't been a single problem what so ever.

Ok heres the crack with the 3UK firmware updates. Spent most of the past few days on the phone to 3 with firmware problems. I have been stuck on 029 for months now and unable to update via SEUS or FOTA. Guy i spoke with last night said the latest firmware for 3 uk was the RIEA037 and I should have been able to upgrade, however it didnt. So rang again today and they asked for my IMEI number and sent the firmware to me via FOTA, it took a while to upgrade but its now on the latest and running very well too. So basically if your stuck with 029 on 3UK ring the support line and say you are stuck on 029 firmware, they will ask you yr IMEI and then send you the firmware via a text message. If you dont recive the text from them just goto settings, general and update service. Then click search for updates, it will then allow you to download the latest update which you select yes to and let it do its stuff. The main file is about 5megs it downloads and then upgrades the firmware from that, takes about 20 mins to do but worth it. tec support told me that from now on I will be able to use SEUS, it seemed as if 3 had locked the updates.
Hope this is of help to Huggons and the rest of 3 uk people.
Regards
