hi,
anyone have problem with the Legend whereby you cant touch some of the letters in the keyboard while in vertical mode?

i find it hard to touch the letter "e", "d" and "x" while in vertical view.

is it because of the software/firmware or the touch screen?

kindly help :|

my legend has weak signal
i mean the bars for normal calling

even my cheap nokia RM100 phone can get full bar but the legend get only 2 bar

somemore in my room has completely no line while my nokia cheap phone can get 2 bars

i am using digi btw.

any advise that could help ?

Are you comparing apples with apples? GSM with GSM or GSM to 3G?

update ur radio, to get better signal

what do u mean by update ur radio?

i use wcdma or gsm auto for legend
nokia phone i think gsm only

any suggestion for me to change on the setting will help?
i could use only gsm in room cause i have wifi.
only go outside i will swtich to wcdma
what u think?
how can i upgrate radio?

I just install papago, after i close the application, on top of that, the satelite like keep on searching signal, how to disable it a?

do you mean the 3G signal is still on even though you have off the GPS signal? this is something i have also....have to turn on airplane mode and turn off airplane mode to kill the 3G signal after using GPS.

Hmm, after sometime then it will go off

juz got mine from lowyat... two thumbs up...

charge the battery powaa to the max, then start to "molest" your baby

Guys, have u guys try to use skype using Legend???

skype? have not tried it out yet as not much friends using it plus i dont have an account.. how bout IM's? say for msn or yahoo, which one is good?

oh ya found this on the web, wonder if its really worth to get it since Legend's juice runs out quite fast, its 1800mAh so i guess it should hold up to a day of use

Mugen Batteries for Legend

Im using fring at the moment..but cant connect to skype. Ym is ok so far.

Mugen batteries? Ive heard about them but how reliable the battery are? Anyone used one before?

Your phone is dual mode, it doesnt matter which mode youre at.

For me,i turn off Gprs and Hsdpa signal by turning off the Mobile Network,which wont affect phone calls.

Press and hold the power button for Legend for few seconds and press Turn Off Mobile Network.

I dont online using gprs or hsdpa so i permanently turn it off.you can still call out or receive call but not mms.

Turn back on using same way.

So you wont worry you will waste unwanted mobile charges,or using the method like switching airplane mode on/off to kill gprs/hsdpa.

Different phones will have varying degrees of signal reception and quality. It will depend on a few things like:

- GSM transceiver antenna design
- GSM module chip performance
- the radio firmware <-- this is why some people recommends you to get the latest revision through phone software updates
- target SAR value and power consumption expectations
- etc etc

One thing to take note is that your phone is now encased in a solid block of aluminum and it is not the best material to use in terms of radio transparency. Meaning to say they block radio signals. Which is why you get black plastic materials (at the camera - top side and battery door - bottom side). This is where the radio antennae like GSM, WIFI+Bluetooth is placed.

If your location has spotty 3G/WCDMA coverage, you might wanna consider switching to 2G/EDGE only. Some radio firmware (depending on design objectives) favor signal strength more than high speed networks like 3G. So whenever your signal bar goes to less than 3 bars, your phone will automatically switch to 2G/EDGE only to switch back to 3G/WCDMA later. This switching will cause service interruptions or a call drop out. It may also cause power inefficiency since your radio has to keep searching when this happens.

Do consider on the SAR envelope and power consumption expectations. Some phones may have very good signal reception. Either they are bulky, have pretty high SAR value or power consumption a little high. Of course, this doesn't mean you can't find a perfect phone with all the good things checked in your list. Still it is far in between. Now modern phones are tightly integrated with all sorts of features, space for transceiver antenna is getting smaller and requires more power to drive high speed applications.

Anyway, I still thing that solid block of aluminum is the key behind lower than normal signal reception.
