I have bought a K800i which contains fw "R1JG001". Notorious for call disconnections when transferring from 3G to 2G. I know SE FW release has covered leaps and bounds since this however the SEUS update tools gives the same lame message "no updates available"

Is there anyway to manually get the update files and push them onto my phone using XS++ or SEToolsLite?? Shall i try changing CDA to US, UK or something?? the CID is 53. Below is XS++ log dump

12:04:46| Profiling SEMC phone...

12:04:46| EROM Color: Red

yeah we live in stone age..this is the friggin problem with middle east version phones..the vendors are barely bothered to release updates because nobody cares about bugs..for them..its a bad phone so sell it away and time to move on to newer model..sort of like an automated sales channel..

well if i change the regions, wouldn't it update the firmware automatically from SEUS..since i don't need the Arabic language support anyway..can somebody point to exactly to latest firmware for K800i because 4shared.com didn't really help. Only old versions there..

I would like "K800_R8BF003_FS_S_ASIA_LEVAN_RED53" since this has English as well as Arabic language support even tho i don't need the later but to read some messages which arrive in Arabic.

send it to thamen_sa@yahoo.com or upload it to 4shared.com

I believe it shouldn't be a problem flashing to a different region firmware?? someone point in right direction here!

much grateful. & best regards.

Sorry I didn't sent these firmware files to your email... Actually I prefer rapidshare (just because of my crap internet connetion)... Anyway, here is a link where you can download full firmware you are looking for:

MAIN R8BF with FS and Custpack included:

http://rapidshare.com/files/1[....]irmware_-_strizlow800.rar.html

Tested and working 100% if you folow this tutorial correctly:

(so instead of the K810 software, use the one I uploaded)
