Thanks for your benchmarks, I have added them to the first post. If you have some time, could you note down the LCD, Camera & ITP software revisions?

After I have my K700i firmware upgraded from R2L001 to R2AE033, the mobile phone monitor does not detect my phone either via Bluetooth or Infrared when I tried to synchronise with Outlook calendar or contacts. Anyone knows how to resolve this problem.

Some more info on R2AY004
LCD: 200406041
Camera: 3.10
ITP: CXC 125 813 R1T
Also, not 100% on this but video playback appears to be a little smoother.

Could someone knowledgeable explain, maybe Mr. Brookes, who or what entity releases new firmwares, how or why do 3rd parties get them well before official channels? Where is EMMAII located?
Is it possible to connect to debranding/unlocking servers directly yourself? Or, how would one go about the process of becoming an unlocking service provider etc?
Yours in ignorance.

These can only be accessed by official Service centres and the like.....although obviously these companies have their sources too
We cannot access them ourselves as I assume we need the correct software / tools

Basically,
All Firmware for SEMC phones is made by SEMC - thats it.
They release the files (not just firmware) on the EMMA II server (Soon to be EMMA III). To access EMMA II, i suggest you type that in google
Of course with your Hardlock dongle etc etc with you.
To become an unlocker/debrander
You need to have some knowledge in programming, not rocket science. Also you need someone with an EMMA II connection so you can link t that server (or buy your own
)
Then you could either crack someone elses software - Davinci use pretty lame exe protection or build your own software. Yu would need to somehow implement the different signed loaders (Chip Select, Recovery, Production etc etc etc)
If i were you and looking to develope SEMC software - i would stop and think hard, or just borrow others code

dunno if this bug has been posted before but noticed it after upgrading my k700 thru SEUS (it's now R2AG001, O2 branded)
whenever I create a new SMS and select a contact to send to, the contact doesn't appear in the list but the contact does appear in my phonebook. Not all entries in the phonebook are affected, only a few names are not listed.

@ gbrooks
Thanks guv, have no intention of getting into that line of business, just out of technical interest was my inquiry.
Sounds like it would take some dedication to get into that market, probably the reason why not every kid with a passion for SE has set themselves up suchlike in their bedrooms.
Cheers.
Oh yeah, liberated software is often a good thing.

Can someone who's installed R2AY test the properties of a resulting 3gp movie recording from his k700 and report back? There have been some talks about better video quality capture with these latest firmware versions, but I feel like we need to quantify the whole issue.
For example R2AE033 produces H.263 9~10FPS video with AMR Narrowband, Mono, 8.000 kHz audio...
Is there any difference with the current newest firmware version?
