Sony Ericsson P990i

hi,

does anyone here use the p990 with the flip removed? i find that although it looks cooler, SE did not really plan well for the phone to beused in this mode.... For example, can i make a call without touching the stylus :)

Yes, I forgot about the spacebar shortcut. Works quite well. I must still play with my Voice commands. Last time I used it was on my P800 :) Obviously much improved since then.

Gecko, I will still pop in from time to time, but not so much during the day.

I'm not disappearing, hell no, still want to give my comments when SE pull their finger and release a 'killer' firmware update - I think SE owe us that much! :eek:

Would seem that the developers at www.cellphonesoft.com know more about the OS than SE's own team... :mad:

*Oh, Swiss Manager Pro 1.43 is out for those who went pro....

Hi kvi, why don't you try to unbrand your phone like others reported they could? I think you will always be 'behind' firmware upgrades since VC won't go through the trouble updating 'their' branded FW with each SE update.

I finally had my phone unbranded at Vodacare Greenpoint. It took a day as SEUS was slow as everyone was upgrading to new firmware.

Thanks Ernest for the head honcho details that they had to phone to unlock it.

For the Capetonians who are stuck - go speak to sales guy Evan who now knows what to do.

oh crp!! my p990 has just died !!!

i noticed while it was lying next me here at my desk that the light was on all the time, not even being charged. so i thought i would restart it. it shutdown fine
but if i try start it all i get is the vibration going as tho its a phone call, you know what i mean like long drrrrrrrr drrrrrrrr drrrrrr. not the normal start up drr.

and it doesnt get further than that, removed battery no difference

damn

That's freaky. Remove your battery for at least 10 to 15 MINUTES, and try again. If not, try longer.
If still not, then put in a day's phone sick leave and go and find that vodacare shop. Reflash to generic while you at it!

Good luck
 
Just a quick question...

Are you guys using a case for your phone? Was using the Crystal case and did not enjoy it.

Used mine for about a week before it broke. Also did not enjoy it much. Made the phone 'feel' cheap.

Now not using any case, but is looking for a good one. Haven't found a proper case (for example leather) that doesn't apply pressure on the flip's keys. This means the battery drains much quicker.
