saw in the U mobile advertisement...got 2 SE models advertised...mentioned with aGPS, and the other one with google map
built in.... so...since G900 is of higher end....got no GPS or built in GOggle map ??

Not bad on the pics, but all were taken during daylight. Any link to pictures taken during night time?

Any suggestion on where to check the price and availability of an ori set?

Thanks.

Guys, is there any way to prevent the sent sms from entering the sent folder? Mafan have to delete it all the time .

Also, is there a symbian app that can manage your smses instead of the stock function?

The SE G900 does not have GPS, not even the P1i and W960i. I don't remember any of its UIQ-based phones have GPS feature built-in. The Google Map for Symbian is available for download free of charge. Now this is a native symbian application which is great and stable. The default application supports GSM triangulation in the form of approximate location feature. It'll roughly tell you where is your current position. If you need detail information, no doubt a GPS is required.

You can get an external GPS bluetooth receiver for around RM250~ and install your choice of navigational software. I've did this and it works great.

@davidmak

i am curious to know what's your next phone?

read that you plan to get the black G900 instead?

Well if you have been checking the sales thread, I am getting rid of my phones hahahaha! Well, actually I like the G900 a lot but I got the red one which doesn't suit me. The APs don't seem to have black the last time I checked. Now I am checking for good deals for HTC Diamond. Will still get a G900 in the short future, probably for my wife. She wants it black too.

Before I got accused of changing phones as often as I change underwear , I usually get an ultra-high-end phone every 2 years. Thats just me though. Just too bad we don't have mobile plans like in Singapore. I remember Maxis and Celcom have one of these offers 5-8 years ago. But its a double rip off because you pay for the plan and still pay a hefty sum on the phones which is supposed to be heavily subsidized. End up only cheaper by a few hundred dollars. Now APs are quite reliable, so might as well get those and not bounded by contracts. Then again, Singapore's call rates are more expensive than in Malaysia.

So you tried using a router broadcasting only G band? Erm... perhaps something miss out with the website and the box itself. Normally, you sure check the white paper of the phone, since it shows the most detailed information of the phone. Anyone can clarify?

here's the screenshot of G900 whitepaper comparing the spec of G900 and P1i,


Here's the whitepaper, (I'm not sure it's legal to distribute, if cannot pls tell me ^^)
 wp_g900_rel3.pdf ( 1.47mb ) Number of downloads: 36

do you guys know that the built-in Note-It application (the sticky note) on G900 can be installed on any UIQ 3 phone (P1i, W960i), amazing isn't

Yup, it was ripped out the G900's ROM. In fact, you can have Walkman 3.0 installed on P1i too! Hehehe

yayaya, just went thru P1i Discussion Thread. alot of nice hacking materials there

haha...if lyn n mod allow it, sure there will be more nice hacking with ahem2 software version...
JK only

SE has enhanced the note application a lots on G series


Yup, by using phone's WiFi = battery killer, even the WM phone with large 1500mA battery could finish within 2-3 hours.

thnx 4 the info,
at least im more convinced abt UIQ platform now....
unlike previous version which is famous for lag n hang
well, still have to wait for the ori set to settle down b4 i get my hands on it

if oni g900 have c702 casing n housing.... that would be the best fone ever
(nice marketing plan they have)

ori G900 is RM1.5k++ (with free bluetooth headset)

while AP G900 is around RM1.4k++

definitely more worthy to go for ori, imo.
