i recently flashed my k800i firmware to R1ED001, and its okay i dont have any major complaints except the red and green phone buttons have nothing to do with calling anyone, and when the screen turns off after a while you cant reactivate the phone by pressing on the joy stick. it only turns on when you press any other button.

My question, is there any other firmware for this phone that is a little different, or better, without having to sacrifice any features.

(oh and do you guys ever get this problem where you take a picture, then delete it, then take another picture, and keep it. later when you go to look at the picture, its some how meshed into the photo that you deleted earlier, and looks deformed (but the thumbnail shows its fine. oh and i just remembered, sometimes when your looking at pics, it wont load the picture all the way, you know how it takes some time and it clarifies the pic, well sometimes it doesnt.))

for example

On the k800i when you buy it from vodafone its locked, instead of having a shortcut to the internet and a shortcut to the mini menu, for vodafone k800i phones its a green phone and red phone button (begin call and end call).

Sorry if that doesn't make any sense but k800i owners on vodafone will know what i mean

Anyways, back on topic

Just flash your phone back to vodaphone firmware if you want those keys to function properly...flashing on davinci is like ($10?)

Other people choose to buy the normal keypad off cnn.cn ($5? +shipping), if you don't mind changing the keypad... you can pretty much change the keypad without opening up the phone, just takes a little force.... agree matt?
I've seen it done, but i personally haveno problem with opening up phones, so I do it the old fashioned way

Yes. The "keys / joystick" above the # buttons just pop out. Easy stuff there...
