Um, I know this might be a stupid question to ask considering that this is a smart phone but I just want to confirm if we can set the location for our incoming messages to go to?

I'm now using w700 which often upsets me because I can't direct the incoming messages to the mass storage (memory stick), causing me to delete precious smses.

And another urgent question is that is there any way I can transfer my messages in my current phone (which is stored in the phone memory) to the g900?

Thanks.

normally how many sms you will stored before delete? for your info, i heard a people storing up to 1000+ by using G900..because G900 build in 160MB..
for transfering sms to another phone, im not sure, because never did that before..

Well I plan to use this phone for up to 2 years (I think) before chucking it out and I'm not sure how many sms will I store before I delete, but I like to keep messages for some unknown reason to me (maybe obsessive compulsive behaviour), but I can say MAYBE 1000+'s not enough for me.

Can help me dig around in your phone to see if there's any options to save messages in memory stick instead? Hahaa thanks.

The number of SMSes the G900 can store is limited only by the amount of free memory. I don't think theres an option to store SMSes on the memory stick. I haven't found it, anyway. But, it'll be a long time before you can fill up the 140MB of phone memory
Just install all your programs on the memory stick and save your camera's photos, videos, andsound recordings on the memory stick, not the phone memory.

You can try copying the smses to your SIM card, put it in the G900 and then copy it to the phone. If you have a lot of messages, it will take a lot of time though.

OR you can try float's mobile agent, save all your SMSes on your pc, and then restore them on your G900. Haven't used that software much though, so make sure its possible. (its free, you have nothing to lose)

Wow. So my question's not that stupid after all XD.

But yeah you're right, it'll take some time before I can fill the 140 with smses ^^

Hmm, I thought of the copy to sim card method too, thought I'd just see if there're any other quicker alternative method.

I've heard of float's mobile agent before, maybe I should give it a go then.

Thanks for the help!

Ivonne168, you can try MyPhoneExplorer, it's free as well. U can easily use it to backup and store your smses and contacts. And I think it's capable of restoring those smses to your new phone too.

Just google it, it's quite easy to find. Hope that helps.


Cheers

Downloaded the MyPhoneExplorer it's a good software. I can see nearly everything in my phone ^^. But I'm not sure about restoring the smses to the new phone though...do I connect the new phone with MPE and let them sync themselves out? Lol.

no idea about your question, never try it before...maybe you can borrow 1 of your friend's phone and try it out..then tell us the result

alright. im planning a trip down to SG sometime soon. i dont really want silicone jacket cause it doesnt cover the screen right? i want one of those leather type cases that flip to cover the touchscreen. ugly but useful hahaha. but maybe the shop also got those. can you tell me where you got it? vivo?



there are no stupid questions. "he who asks a question is a fool for a moment, he who doesnt ask is a fool for a lifetime" or so they say. hehe

well i dont really think they have such a feature. maybe there is software to back up to pc? you can check that out. btw. why on earth do you wanna keep 1000++++ sms's on your phone? i mean. they must be really sentimental. i think you should just keep them seperate. then if you wanna look it up. on your old phone again.

for smartphone i think when opening the messaging it will really lag. make is real slow to send sms or read sms.

your battery can last 1 week ?!?!?!? impossible...
original G900??

anyone know where is the beam file store?

I suppose he off during the night and switch back on the day.

no lah. if its not heavy usage it will be able to last a while. mine lasted 5 days or so.

your beamed files are sent to your message inbox. i think.... but its somewhere in the messaging section. i dunno why.

beam file is not in the inbox unless you click save..i wonder is it if i dont click delete and save, where is it?

really? last time this happened to me its still in the inbox. when you click save it allows you to "save as" type thing. strange lah. sometimes i wish there is a search function on the phone.... or is there one? /

no..hahahahaha...

ya its hard to believe...but the truth is there




no reason to do so lor



yup absolutely right man...i'm not heavy user..u can see my stat that i posted b4..huhuhuhu

is there some way to send message to SE update people and tell them to put search function in? i think it will be useful. hahah. especially for those who do work on their phone. maybe search their emails. or even for the 1000+ sms that some of the forumers keep. i think would be useful.

btw what is the beam file?

for sms, there is a option to find message that placed inside the inbox..check it out..
but for search file, maybe you can suggest

actually outside inbox also have the function find message..huhuhu

beam file is a temporary file that transfer using bluetooth..and you can choose whether delete after use it or save inside your memory...

wah. i just tested it out the search function for sms. quite good leh.

hey by the way. when you are in the inbox right. you click more there is an option that says "download all" what is this and what are you downloading and where is it going? anyone know?

im wondering as well..i click download all, nothing happen and dont know it download what..
anyway, see you guys at the night, time for me to go work..

i have 1 question about the g900, does anyone experience while copy the contact from phone into sim always appear the word exceed inflow something like that and then cant even copy already. how come ah can anyone help me out ah pls pls pls.

hmm never tried this before. so i cant say. im still stuck on the download all. hahahah.

have fun at work (its sunday just to remind you) hahaha. work hard.

does this mean my sim card got problem or my phone have problem ah??

myb ur sim card reach the limit to store sms...my sim card only can store 40sms..

you using the old sim card? i thought the new ones can store more than 150 contacts. ... oh yours says sms. my fault. the guy asking for contacts lah. heheh. but yeah. sim card is so crappy at holding a lot of contacts. its probably full. i recommend only transferring the important contacts and the rest putting it on the memory card.

---- anyways i heading off. im at a coffee shop now. have a good sunday guys. ..... i hate sundays. cause i know tomorrow will always and forever be a monday. but i shouldnt complain. lineage going to work on a sunday already.

no no i saying while i transfer my phone contact into my sim card but the phone always have error that excced outflow or inflow something like that so i cant even copy my contact into my sim card. so anyone help me out pls

Added on November 30, 2008, 12:25 pmok ok i try already it stated that there is overflow i dont know what happend
can anyone help me out and so on after i continue it no moving anymore

all sifu...do u know our g900 can install msn onot?if can than where can get it?

Yo guys asking for opinion again here >.<

I was just wondering if LY's price's really that competitive for me to go there and get my g900 there or should I just buy my phone nearby.

I heard that LY's price's not that competitive (higher, even), and the chances of getting conned's pretty high >.<

u can use Fring for chatting.(support skype, msn, icq,sip, google talk,twitter, yahoo,aim).

maybe some1 can compile all the information that we can refer (recommended software, games, themes,update, FAQ, etc).

tried but not happened

my bad actually i want to said that sim card( maxis) can store up to 250 contact numbers ( tell me if i'm wrong) n sms up to 40 msgs...btw how to check this information in sony ericson coz b4 this i check it using my samsung phone..huhuhuu

my work never can take off on weekend..


1 more application that you can use for login msn messenger..Slick

anyway... to answer one of the questions there...

YES, It's possible to restore previous sms from yr other phone to your new phone... I've been doing it.. since very very long ago.. using MyPhoneExplorer...

if unsure.. PM me and ask me how maybe..

so i decide to finish my testing at 30/11/2008 (00.00am)...so my battery can last till 7 days with above configuration n used.TQ

hmmm. i dont think it is super competitve anymore. you could also check out the digital mall in pj if you dont wanna go so far out. they are quite decent too. i think the AP price is around or less than rm1000 already. or so i read somewhere on LYN. might be a mistake though. but yeah.



ehhh. cannot take weekend off? so you working 7days? or what? well either way work hard.

btw. have you used fring? which one is better?



well done felixx i think you set the new record on lyn hahah.

hahahhahaha....btw how about the "download all" function?still in investigation?

its a hopeless investigation. i gave up already. but my guess is that it is used when there are sms's on you sim card. so then you dl them from the sim card to the phone. as you mentioned you can store sms on your sim (i never knew that. hahah) but i too malas to check. hahha. not important feature i guess for me.

i prefer Slick..interface maybe..you need to use then only know which suitable for you..

alright. will check both of them out. thanks.

i only need msn anyways. i might get sucked into using slick esp. if you say interface is nicer. hehhe. i love beautiful things. heheheh

interface is plain and simple..because the screen is small, i dont like many things in a small screen, so i prefer screen...and slick dont need register as a user..fring need register as fring user..

... if its like that then looks like im definately going to be using slick.

lol my g900 packs getting popular =)

anyone in this thread tried the icons? i wanted to see the pics. but had to register or what not so i didnt look at the pics. are they nice?

i modified those packs personally bro..all packs tried and tested by me..its worth registering on that site..you should try it!

eh dude, can you post how to get those pack to work? i tried but can get it to change my icon.

which icons can u not change bro?
