It's identical hardware, different firmware :blink:

I'm actually looking to flash mine with the W800 firmware, simply :blink: because the media application is so superior. God knows how to do it though, I'll have to look into it.

Dazzla , you can do it yourself, check out DaVinci

Edit: After checking the site, I think they've pulled the w800i firmware, could have sworn they had it there the other week. But, you can do it yourself here FoneFunShop

Edited by Bliksem
If you havn't unplugged it already, Just be sure to charge it for 24hrs the first time and don't charge it until the battery is COMPLETELY dead for the first 2-4 charges(Longer battery time) - so I've read.

PS: http://jelly.joshbarber.co.uk/k750i.php

Although I havn't asked Dazzla via pm or anything(i forgot) this will be my asking now.

Dazzla: If you want me to remove the pictures tell me so and I'll take some of my own  :cry:

EDIT:

funkystars, You're receiving slow transfer speeds beacuse you're trasfering it to the MOBILE PHONE not the actual card. I've got USB 1.1 so yours will probably be even faster if its to the card. Heres how to transfer it to the card:

1) connect the phone and usb

2) make sure the card is connected to the phone

3) once its connected goto My Computer and select removeable disk(mine shows as F:)

4) find the folder 'MSSEMC' open it up, then 'Media files' then go into 'audio' now, when I got my phone there was 2 folders 'ringtones' and 'videodj'. I made a folder for my MP3 called 'MP3'.

5) find your MP3/ALBUM you want to transfer, and copy it to your clipboard. Then in the 'MP3' folder you made paste it.

6) It should take like 10seconds max(per song).

IMPORTANT: DISCONNECT THE USB LEAD - Otherwise when u goto Media Album the MP3 folder wont show up. NO media transfered will show up on the phone while the USB lead is still connected.

Playing the MP3:

Goto Media album>Sounds>MP3>Play.

:) Enjoy.

No problem :D

Would you recommend this or the W800?

I have an MP3 player but when in college i rarely listen to more than 1 album, so would this be a good investment over the K750i?

586449359[/snapback]

So far, From what I've gathered off this thread, The only difference in the W800 is the multimedia card that comes with it(512mb with W800 and 32mb with k750i) and a 'flight' mode profile or something? I'd probably go for the k750i if I were you, and buy a card if you can't fit an album on it.

I'd prefer the W800i myself, and yes the only difference is the firmware, but if you love music like myself then you'd go for the W800i, the function of the media player in the W800i is just amazing!! The sound quality is much much better and more enjoyable.

But if you prefer to have the looks of the K750i, but want the functions of the W800i, just get it flashed, i'd wait for the red firmware of the W800i to be released before flashing though, theres been many problems with the firmware thats been going round, so watch out.

Primie.uk

any chance i could get that wallpaper/theme from you dazzla? (this one)

and besides from the better camera and the memory stick slot is there much of a difference between this and the k750i?

Here's the wallpaper:

And this is a K750i, did you mean is it any different to a K700i?

586508663[/snapback]

thanks dazzla, and yeah i ment k700i, because it's about half the price, and i don't care about the music player and the better camera (which is pretty amazing from what i've seen) i'd probably not use since i never use the camera on any of my phones now though

i've been using nokia cellphones for the longest time..and for the longest time swore by 'em...

but i truly believe the k750i is the phone that could finally turn things around for a lot of people..

the phone is solid and i have no major complaints about it...it has everything i need and want..and the

perfect size...not too big, not to small...sony ericsson hit the mark with this one

Hey mate great review, I have this phone and love it although I do have one problem with it. I hope im not being stupid but I can't find a way of making it take videos that are longer than 9 seconds in duration. Is it me or can you increase the video length, - if this requires a firmware update in order to do so then please tell me as I really need to sort this out!

Thanks mate.

However, some browsers resist this change, and Opera issued a statement that it will allow users to continue using MV2 extensions for as long as possible. While Microsoft is still not ready to share new details about MV2 extensions in Microsoft Edge, the company shared important details about the way it will be updating the browser going forward. Now, Microsoft wants to update Edge every two weeks across all platforms instead of the current four-week schedule (only the Extended Stable is exempt from this change). This week, Microsoft confirmed a useful new Teams feature that is coming to the messenger soon. It also detailed all the improvements that made the platform better for users in 2026.

    • Microsoft Flight Simulator's City Update 15 enhances Midwest cities by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The third major city update of the year has landed for the original Microsoft Flight Simulator and the 2024 release. The latest drop is upgrading the visuals and regional accuracy of three metropolitan regions in the American states of Illinois, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. The 15th city update is adding eight new areas of interest that have been enhanced with high-fidelity TIN (triangulated irregular network) surface texturing in the mentioned regions. The free update highlights Chicago, Elgin, Cicero, and Arlington Heights in Illinois, as well as Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington, Duluth, Brooklyn Park, Woodbury, Lakeville, Plymouth, and Blaine in Minnesota. In Wisconsin, the development has also upgraded the lands and buildings of Milwaukee, Madison, and Racine. The update lands just as one of the world's largest enthusiast flight simulation conventions, FlightSimExpo, kicks off in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota, on June 14. The Flight Sim development team's 40-minute keynote at the event can be watched here. At the same time, Microsoft is bringing the 6-seat, single-engine, multi-use light civil airplane Piper M600 into the game as a part of its Expert Series 2 program.

    • Five things you might have missed during Apple's WWDC 2026 by Aditya Tiwari Image: Apple Apple's annual developer event, WWDC 2026, happened from June 8 through June 12. We have already covered several new features and updates that the iPhone maker unveiled during the official keynote. Apple took Google's help and finally announced the upgraded Siri AI personal assistant, which now comes with an app. Moreover, a truckload of Apple Intelligence features took the center stage. That said, this year's WWDC is a bit different, and you might have noticed or missed the following stuff: Apple's ongoing unification of platforms Image: Apple One thing Apple is widely known for is its seamless hardware-software ecosystem. The company added a new chapter in 2020, when it began the Apple Silicon transition and launched macOS 11 Big Sur with native ARM support. Some major changes happened last year as well, when Apple renamed all of its operating systems to version 26 and introduced the Liquid Glass design language. Until WWDC 2025, Apple keynotes had dedicated segments for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and other operating systems, in which the company discussed each in detail. The WWDC 2026 keynote was different, and Apple allotted most of the screen time to Apple Intelligence and Siri. It didn't even publish separate press releases on its website for different operating systems. While it might seem surprising at first, it shows how Apple plans to move forward with its software ecosystem. Be it the Liquid Glass changes, child safety updates, or other features, they are mostly rolling out across multiple platforms. In other words, Apple is slowly blurring the line between its operating systems and achieving feature parity wherever possible. It's easy to rule out that someone in Apple's marketing team forgot to press the publish button. Everything is a calculated move when it comes to a company like Apple. Putting Apple Intelligence left, right, and center hints that the OS itself is no longer the product anymore. It's Siri, not Pepsi Time and again, various Apple products have been compared to unrelated things and turned into meme material. You might have heard about the "cheese grater" Mac Pro or the "trash can" Mac Pro, to name a few. It's Siri's turn this time. The upgraded AI assistant got a fresh logo, and people have started comparing it with Pepsi. There are other contenders, such as the Sony Ericsson logo and the Yin and Yang symbol. Shot on iPhone. Edited on Mac Image: Apple Apple has been putting the iPhone's camera muscles to the test on various occasions. Even NASA astronauts took it to Space earlier this year and captured some out-of-this-world photos. Recently, Apple TV streamed the first major live sporting event shot entirely on iPhone 17 Pro: an MLS match featuring the LA Galaxy vs. the Houston Dynamo FC. The 'Pro' iPhone has also been used to shoot Apple events in recent years. It's "Scary Fast" Mac event in 2023 was among the earliest attempts, and the tradition trickled down to the WWDC 2026 keynote, which ended with the tag line "Shot on iPhone. Edited on Mac." It's unsurprising to see Apple flexing the camera capabilities of its Pro models, especially when it has been baking professional-grade features, including ProRes RAW and Genlock. Hints for the foldable Apple has been sitting on the foldable iPhone for so long. There is still confusion over when the company will make it official. A recent report said that the iPhone Fold might get delayed as Apple is struggling to perfect its hinge mechanism. But Apple has been dropping hints here and there. A developer dug into the iOS 27 beta code and found internal references about device folding states. As verified by Macworld, the code includes references to "foldState" and "angleDegrees" internal status values, which are apparently designed to tell apps if a device is folded and at what angle. As of now, no other Apple device uses these states. The publication also found internal code suggesting Apple has been testing a device with both Touch ID and Dynamic Island, a combo that doesn't exist today. Last event as Apple CEO Image: Apple Tim Cook's bond with Apple is now almost three decades old, having started in 1998 as the SVP of Worldwide Operations. Back in August 2011, Steve Jobs stepped down as Apple CEO months before his passing, and Cook took charge. Now, the baton has been passed to the hardware chief, John Ternus, who will take over the role on September 1. WWDC 2026 is the last major Apple Event for Tim Cook as CEO. We have seen so much during Cook's tenure over the years, much of which defines Apple as we know it today. From new hardware product lines like Apple Watch, AirPods, Apple Vision Pro, and Apple Silicon, to boosting Apple's services business with Apple Music, Apple TV, Apple Pay, Apple Arcade, Apple Fitness+, Apple Care One, and more. That said, the first developer betas for Apple's latest operating systems are now available. You can check if your device is supported on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27 Golden Gate, watchOS 27, and other platforms. What's your favorite feature that Apple announced this year at WWDC 2026?
