As far as I know, the latest firmware was published early last fall. It
has numerous bugs.
Version information:
Phone: R2F
Bluetooth: R5A
Organizer: R2D02
CDA version differs depending on country, and may be changed back to an
earlier version by a restore.

Hi Mal,

Not sure. If I power the phone on I get a normal display as it loads up
until it comes to the main screen at which point it displays about the first
15mm (the flip is closed) and the rest is then a blank white screen. If I
go into the call list and exit (flip still closed) the display returns to
normal. It doesn't do this all the time though when powering on, hence I'm
thinking it's a firmware issue.

Regards,
Hamid
