I don't think anyone here knows for sure if there will be another firmware update.
I suspect that unless the phone needs to support additional third party or internal hardware there will be little chance of another firmware upgrade. The current firmware is very stable and pretty much problem free.

Really need help here.
My w800i is driving me nuts.
Transfering MP3 thru disc2phone to w800i is a mystery. Even when it shows all the songs have been tranferred successfully, the minute I pull out the USB cable, only a few songs are being transferred. And I keep losing all my pictures everytime I remove the MSPD out of the phone and put it back. The files are there but the pictures seems to be corrupted and cannot be viewed. I have been reading many threads on forums (took me hrs and hrs) and it seems like the firmware I have R1N035 has a bug.
As per advice, I tried to upgrade trough SEUS, followed each and every steps, but it keeps telling me I have the latest software which I know is not true. Can anyone help me out? Need quite specific steps as still a noob.
The details of my phone:
R1N035
Customization
CDA102338/36 R5A
cxc 1250093 R1N035
Thanks in advance.

You need to install both usb and flash drivers as described on SE pages.
The battery as to be fully charged and the headset off.
You start SEUS, press C and link the usb cable to the pc.
After few seconds the phone is detected.
There is no other way to use SEUS. If u experience problems read this thread using "search option". To search only this threadm: bookmark the thread, then choose bookmark only" in search page.
Good Luck.

With a different theme from the default one, Odgps don't start to update even the altitude. Less memory u use -no clock, no background, no screensaver- better the application work. Even like this it stops updating speed and altitude and it hangs. If u try to quit it hangs and bluetooth crashes.
I don't know if this is only a personal issue, since I don't know someone using odgps and a bt dongle. That's why I opened a thread some days ago.

Yakko, I had a very similar problem with:
K750 (1 yr old firmware!),
Holux GR-230 BT dongle (perfectly working with my Palm T3)
odgps, gpswatch, mobitrack, jawatech
For all those apps, the BT connection with GPS worked a few seconds, just the time to get the data once or two. Then no link. I had to restart the app to get updated data.
I tried your advice on using a default SE theme but with no improvements, then, by pure chance, found the solution: DO NOT ACTIVATE THE SCREENSAVER.
Since then, all the above programs plus J2MEmap and Mgmaps can keep up the connection to the GPS receiver.
Now I have to try and see if it is possible to have both BT GPS and BT headset connected at the same time...
Hope this helps.
Ciao!

Thank you for the advice.
I never used screensaver. Read my previous posts if u want. I found the problem in SE developers forum.
The solution is to try as many gps dongle till u find the one compatible with your headset.
Byez!

Hello i am new here and i am new to this whole flashing\\updating thing so i have some noobs types of question and a problem. I have an unbranded k750i (i understood that a branded a phone is the one customized and synced to a certain operator Vodafone, Orange etc wich is not the case with my phone).
To cut to the chase, i purshased recently a san disk 512 mb memo stick pro duo. I tried to put my music on it and it worked fine untill i noticed that certain things (ringtones, themes, pics, mp3's) dissappeared from the stick when i added my music. Also some mp3 were placed inside some others Example: When you play Coldplay - Yellow you hear a part of Coldplay - Clocks etc or simply the file dissapear.
Easier Explenation:
I have Coldplay - Clocks on the Stick (Mp3 folder via copy and paste) and Yellow on the Computer.
I add yellow on the stick and one of these things happen:
1.Yellow isnt there but when you play clocks or any other song on the stick you could hear it.
2.Something get deleted from the stick wether its a pic or a ringtone or a theme and still yellow isnt there.
3.Yellow is there and everything is fine (it happens 50% of the time but most of the other times stupid stuff like what i posted above happens)
I am sick as i want a fast reliable way to add my music without errors and problems so i decided to update my phone as its running a R1N035 and i think a newer firmware could be the cure.
My questions:
Have anyone else encountered this problem before? if yes how do i solve it?
If i want to update my firmware to the latest version do i have to install all the updates since that version or just the latest one?
How to update since my update service dosent seem to get passed that stupid loading screen...http://img436.imageshack.us/my.php?image=untitledhe1.jpg

For the firmware update I still haven't tried it. Just have the phone for few weeks and started playing only a little... trying not to kill it!
Anyway you should have the latest Macromedia Flash player and remove as much applications as possible from those I can see you have running (in the taskbar).
For the memory problem there are lots of threads discussing a bug which causes corruption of data when you load them in the MS using the USB cable.
It should have been solved in the latest firmare versions. Just look around the forum.
Have you tried a MS card reader? I've a 2GB MS and loaded it to the max with music and some free java apps. Using the card reader. No problems.
Never tried the cable, as usually I found card readers are faster.
Hope this helps a little

of course it was helpfull thanks
now i know that these corruption in data will go with the new firmware even though i couldent locate its thread. But the important question is: Do i have just to install the latest firmware or all the firmwares untill the last one?
