I think BOLD3/Bold Touch both also at HSDPA mode although only show 3G mode

Maxis Blackberry Software download for 9900 already up since Tuesday.

Dunno la, but I am staying on 2G until I can get a spare battery or an extra capacity battery.

FYI guys, H+ is not HSDPA but actually HSPA+
HSDPA is actually 3.5G or 3G+
and if I'm not mistaken is not available in Malaysia.
We don't hav a HSPA+ network in Malaysia, just 3G currently

Just read about this, seems like actually all 9900 has h+ support.

Just maybe unbranded 9900 there is few versions, each version may contain diff modem/band. This is the cause maybe.

There is 1 user at crackberry using 9900,he get extreme speed while his 9900 only showing 3G.

just want to check with sifus, is it our bold 9900 not longer have auto focus for its camera???

no AF for 9900.

stupid right? with the 5MP camera but took out the auto focus

Yes, many people tiao about this, but nothing will be changed. acceppt it or wait for next model.

I am not particular about the camera, still can live with it.

What i am not happy is some of the interfaces and controls are not convenient.
Example like after typing number in universal search, there is no option to "Add in contact". Really stupid.
In Text Message tab, click on menu key the first default selection is "open". "Compose new message" is at the bottom which cannot be seen at the first page, really stupid.
In Contacts tab, phone number is not shown, only name zzz...
Cannot type "space" in password column, zzz...
Menu key spacing is too big, this is meant for finger touch, but i think most people use trackpad instead of finger to scroll the menu list. Unable to make the spacing smaller so that more options can be displayed.
Trackpad almost non functional if the finger is wet even a little

After all, i still like the phone.

ehmm....more negative review than positive ones.....just booked mine with digi summore 2 phones....mine and wife.....

OK guys, my 9900 has gone to the hospital (i.e Brightstar Penang).



Went there today at 4pm to let them take a look at my trackpad that seemed to make the cursor move on the screen even when not touched.

2 hours later, they pass me the phone to test after supposedly resetting and recalibrating something, and tadaa! the phone doesn't finish booting (hangs at the BB logo). Now they have taken back my whole box (minus warranty card) and advised me that they will send the whole thing to KL and will call me back within 2 weeks or so.



My Galaxy S didn't even once fail me in the 1.5 years I've had it..

oh no....

they should offer 1 to 1 exchange

1st time using a blackberry? Lemme teach u something... The problems you stated are not actually problems, just that you don't know some of the functions.

(refer to numbers in the quote)
1. Normally we (more advanced users) disabled universal search in homescreen because we use keyboard shortcuts for apps. For example, N = bbm, B=launch browser, etc. So when we wanna call we press the green button to launch "Phone" and type there... In the "Phone" app you can add to contacts. If you really insist to add in universal search then I've no solution, but that's really minor that I never actually realize...

2. No need to click menu key, just press C in text message there, you can compose already. Make use of keyboard shortcuts.
(I suggest you guys to buy QuickLaunch app, most useful app among all apps ever, for example my sms compose shortcut is just space + Y)

3. This can't be changed at the moment... Need an extra click to see details.

4. I can type space in my password (Bold 9780). Don't see why you cant.

5. Personal preference, can't be helped.

6. Mine is just fine.

Sorry to hear that man. These things happen. I had to change my bbs too last time cause of these little things. They replaced the whole unit after few weeks.

I'm not too sure if bb's quality or not because I never had to replace phones before bb too

^ Sometimes BB's QC is bad especially trackpad. Two friends of mine bought curve 3G, both brightstar set from umobile.

First set, the trackpad is too loose, it moves even though you're not touching it. Second set, the trackpad is not sensitive enough, need to scroll like mad but the cursor only move a little..

Having said that my bold 9780 is perfectly fine... So it really depends on your luck.

I guess because the QC was based on randomly selecting which unit to test. But then again, I could be wrong.

My wife's 9780 keypad is ultra sensitive. Every time she types, each letter will be repeated at least twice. Sent to Brightstar, for servicing, still the same. But hey, now she managed to adjust to just slightly touch the keys to type. She called it slide typing.

Not sure about QC's true meaning but just let it go

That is the very famous stutter issue, you can see it in crackberry forum. I heard the latest 6.0.0.650 OS already fixed this stutter issue... But I'm not sure cuz I don't have this issue from the beginning.

They said tadak stock konon in Penang branch. Anyway, I've asked my retailer to help follow up for me. Have to fire up my wife's old S60 phone in the meantime.
