I was going to try to upgrade using Wotan here at work, good internet connection, but it seems that the site is down.
Does anyone know if it is possible to run Wotan's client on Win 2k? The site says XP only, but I do not understand why this should be mandatory. Has anyone tried?
At work I have W2k and nice stable internet connection, at home I only have internet through phone (old modem, or through 3G on the phone) but I use Win XP (and it worked fine last time I ran Wotan's client for debranding). Since my best internet connection at home is through cell phone, I will have to connect through my old phone, Samsung Z500, and for some reason (I think their software on PC) I do not get as good speeds as with my
K800i, but the latter one needs to be de-SIM:ed for flashing.
Another thing: I noticed something strange in my phone today, after debranding the icons changed back to SE default, with "Play now" (or whatever) in the upper left corner of the main menu, and d/l links to
Fun & Download in the different file manager menus/lists. Today the icon previously known as "Play now" is different (a paper with text and a small
logo in front of it) and it links to my operators home page (the one I set in the internet settings), and the d/l links have changed (and are actually broken). The link in the Games menu is now called "9df4af.b", the others are unnamed, and they contain invalid links (can not connect).
The only "messing around" I have done lately, yesterday, was setting the System folder on the M2 card as not hidden (using MobyExplorer), and exploring the contents, copying jad/jar files for AlienScum and WayFinder to Other folder.
Have not tried resetting phone (what is a "master reset" really, and how do I do it?), nor simply shutting down and removing battery. Might help...

just called sonyericsson in Kuwait, they told me that they have the new firmware (R1ED001), could it be that theyre using wotan instead of sonyericsson? and the funny thing is there charging around 5KD which is 20 us dollars for the update, what a ripoff! so does anyone have an official date as to when this update will be released? thanx

every now and then the firmware is released earlier in some countries and some get it later. This can be due to specific fixes for a country/provider or just to spread the relase so not all will update at the same time.
20USD for an update is quite cheap
paying for an update (out of warranty since it's free when you have warranty) in Sweden can cost from 25USD to 60USD depending on where you go

Well I just tried SEUS and it does work, here in Netherlands, no problem at all. But it says that I already have the latest firmware on my phone.
At the moment I have R1CB001, so I guess its not out yet.
By the way, does anyone know when to expect davinci to be able to unlock the K800?!

I got a bug that like everyone to try it out.. (Version R1CF001)
Goto a New Message..
Type out a sentence e.g.
I have a bug to test it out.
Bring the cursor to the 'to' like this:
I have a bug to| test it out.
Press '#" to add in a space.
You will see 'faded' test next to the cursor.
*in case you don't see the faded 'test', exit out and goto a New Message again*
Now, press Continue assuming you want to send the sms.
Press BACK and you will see words after test are deleted.
Same thing happen when you press the centre of jogstick.
Anyone pls verify..
(extra post)
