Sorry about the BROD Pawar. But most of us have moved on and upgraded to more solid phones that are stable and better.
Chris, that's nokia code. Sony ericsson code is 0000.

        Hi all!
        I just need to know something about the Bluetooth. How true is it that leaving your phones bluetooth on (When not in use)sucks up the battery life? I have left my Bluetooth on (Hidden) for a number of occasions and I haven't happened to see a significent decline in my phone's battery life.

                I've just finished runing the update service and found out that there hasn't been any updates for more than a year now LOL. I'm not complaining though coz I don't really have issues with the phone.

                    I am using this mobile for about 1 year. I bought it new. This phone has great features but its keypad is very annoying. Its not soft. So if you are continuously working then it causes pain in the thumb.
                    But otherwise performance and features are great. But keypad should be soft so that you can work even longer......!

                            Reading most of the opinions here I am totally confused as to how you guys use your phones. I am a rough user myself but I didn't have any problems with this phone. I must admit I had it serviced once because I SAT ON IT and it lost audio and only audio. I have had this phone for more than a year now and it still works. no brod, no touch sensor malfunction, speakers are really nice, quite easy to use.

I guess it was all a rumour that SE were ccoking up a new firmware for the K850i.

                                      I wrote an email to SE if there is truth to the rumor about a new firmware released August this year:

                                      ***From:

                                      Opinion: I have a K850i and there have been news of a new firmware being released for it last August 5. May I ask if there is truth to that? My phone's firmware is the latest (to my knowledge), R1FA 035.***

                                      and their reply was:
