I just updated mine from R1EA033 to R1FA035 yesterday. After I first updated the firmware, the lcd & keypad would turn on at an instant when i open the slider. But after restarting the phone, the 2sec delay for the lcd & keypad is back when opening the slider.

Is there like a 2sec delay for you guys when you open the slide on R1FA035?

nah its like that... also depends on situation, like whether u slide open the phone when the screen's still visible on standby or the screen is totally black. for the latter its the same (2 secs) sometimes but sometimes its also quite fast lol.

thanks tyranusaurus. I guess we really have the same situation here. For the 2sec delay I meant waiting for the phone to go completely black (for about a minute or two) then open. If i open the slide while the phone is dimmed or just went black it is quite fast for the lcd & keypad to light up.

I just reapplied the same firmware and it seems to be an updated one on O2 as well. I noticed all the improvements that have been mentioned here in this thread but it's listed as R1FA030.

Backup your phone before applying the update because it wipes everything stored on the phone.

OK, I know that this might sound a little noobish, but it has always bugged me. Do you really have to make sure the battery is fully charged and then remove it and re-insert it before updating the software? What happens if you don't do that? Why is it necessary in the first place? Thanks for your replies!

your battery doesn't necessarily have to be 100% charged, but i strongly suggest that you make sure it is at least at the 50% mark. the last thing you want to happen is to run out of power during a firmware update, which may result in a bricked phone.

although it normally takes me about 15 minutes to update SE non-smartphones, some people have problems and take much longer to update so i guess you want to make sure you have enough power for any eventuality.

as for taking the battery in and out, it allows the phone to completely reset its memory and therefore avoid any corruption or other problems during the update. if you notice, sometimes after updates, especially with hacking software, you sometimes can't get the phone to power up until you take the battery in and out. it allows for a full reboot, if you like.
