Take it easy guys, I am sure we all have had our frustrations with this phone. Tyranusaurus was one of the frontier guys on here to update to R1FA035, and we all saw how he got screw in the ass from the first R1FA035 update (lol!). But like he said, the current R1FA035 is pretty good compared to other earlier firmware versions (R1FA035 provides acceptable balance in performance/battery/stability).

Considering how thin and compact the phone is, I think it is a reasonable cause that it will not be as fast as some of the bigger phones. Not to mention, it doesn't turn boiling hot after talking on it for a period of time like some phones. This phone use a slower processor, while some phones use processors that are fast, but get way too hot for comfortable usuage.

I can get about 3 days in battery life under frequent usage, and 5 days light use. From my knowledge, this is notably above average in today's cell phone market. I understand there are still people who are struggling with the phone even after updating to the latest firmware version. All I can say is F the people who made this possible. If the W910i did not exist, I would definately look at the Black Nokia 6500 Slide (it's wicked sick )

Answer to your question could be both No and Yes. Phone should be ON to communicate with the PC but it will remain OFF as far as normal phone functions are concerned. You can not make any call while updating, nor is it possible to use menu.

Updating the phone is not that complicated, just follow the instruction when you run the SEUS program. Make sure that your phone's drivers are already installed in your PC before strating SEUS.

I have some problems with my w910 R1FE035 firmware

1- I have set theme from my m2(memory stick) but after restarting phone (i mean turn it off and on) phone changes my theme by its default one why? should i set themes only from phone memory? does anybody have this problem?

2- after charging completely (about 3 hours) phone status doesn't show 100% it shows 99% and when i turn the phone off and plug charger to phone it says fully charged.

if anyone have this problem with this firmware we can assume that these are bugs of this firmware, anyway why in first page there is not any info about R1FE035?

P.S excuse me if these have been said from other user and i repeated again.
