You can always download Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) and update it yourself.
It's very easy and you just have to follow it step by step then you should be able to have the latest R1EA037 firmware smile.gif

AP set I assume ?
If so, it should be your CDA number incompatible with APAC region firmware CDA number.
To have yourself enjoy update from SEUS in future, you can try to flash your firmware to the latest R1EA037 with APAC region CDA number. smile.gif

i dont quite get you, can you elaborate more? newbie in phones here sweat.gif

AP set = oversea set (most of them)
It comes with oversea firmware which the firmware CDA number is follow by region so the set bring to Malaysia, update at APAC region, it won't get up to date as the CDA number is incompatible smile.gif

A reflash is needed to have your phone enjoy SEUS update in future smile.gif

Oh i get you now.. So I should send it to some shop to reflash now. Thanks smile.gif

K850i (DB3150 if not mistaken) still unsupported by free flash tool like XS/Settool. So far only wotan/davinci pay service capable to upgrade K850i firmware if AP (for those CDA & IMEI not match base on SEUS calculation)

so that means im stuck with my old firmware? sad.gif

As I go through some of the forum, K850i can't modify yet so you can't change the CDA number yourself. The easiest way is to pay for a reflash smile.gif

how do I check my CDA number? and why some of da AP phone users can update their phones thru SEUS and some not? hmm.gif

Don't know what's happening to my phone.
I charged it overnight then i restarted my phone and it shows 'Searching' and it hanged.
It's not responsive.. only thing I could do is detach the battery, on it back and it's still the same.
My firmware is the oldest one, the R1CA029. Need some help over here guys sad.gif

Likely a hardware problem, better send it in for service at the AP service center or SE center, whichever applicable.
