Good service from dopod. I sent my 818pro to repair the speaker and finished repair at the same day.
Not bad!Not Bad!

They have changed to a better quality speaker since nov 06 for 818pro according to SIS.
I went to Dopod to repair my speaker last week. They told me so.
But i feel nothing difference. Voice quality also same.. still no confident in setting maximum volume...

I also changed the screen (Dopod service are so GOOD! Big thumb up for them). Although they didn't said anything but i feel it has a better quality. Very sensitive and responsive. Unlike before repair.

Did not go to KL. Plan was postponed until further notice. From the comments people made in this forum, it sounds to that dopod 818pro has a lot of problems on its trail..... convince me, please, that this is worth parting with RM1688. I have many fears, especially with electronic gadgets. TIA

I brought it at RM2688 one year ago until now not regret. At RM1688, it worth buying. Highly recommended! (Assume you don't want 3G)

I'm using Kinstone 2G 50x SD Card.
818Pro only support/utilize the lowest speed of the SD Card.
It's useless to use high speed on it.
*
Many people claim that 818Pro not utilize the speed of the SD Card
You won't feel the difference when executing program at the card but you'll feel the speed difference when you trying to copy or moving file between internal memory and card.
Try to move a 10MB file from internal memory to card with different speed and see.

Dopod service are good.
Complain screen problem > changed screen
Complain speaker problem > changed whole speaker...
They even have 1 to 1 change policy.
I remember during collecting my set after repair, i over heard the worker there calling their customer saying that their management has agreed to change you a brand new set, please bring complete box of your previous phone.

I heard that there's an internal release of new firmware that activates the built in GPS module... is it true?

I believe that firmware is for Dopod D810.

to perform a hard reset;
PRESS and hold the CAMERA ans Comm Manager buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device.

WARNING!
always turn off your device before performing a hard reset. your device will be set back to factory default settings.
The manual are not so clear actually;
To hard reset, it should be;

PRESS and hold the CAMERA ans Comm Manager buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device.
> wait for 5 sec
> you will see a black screen telling you to press send to hard reset
> press green button (call button)

Question:

Is there any way to make the notification (for SMS) repeat itself like on many mobile phones? My 818 only beep once and that's it although the light on the pda blinks in amber, but who looks at their pda all the time right? A repeated beep would be nice to remind that there are unread SMSes.

Thank you.

PhoneAlarm can do this..

dunno why people keep getting these problems

it happen when we load too much auto start-up software. Try to keep it awake by pressing any button after soft reset.
If can't then Hard reset it.

Patch for Resolving Time Setting Loss Problem(for model 838、C800、D600)

After removing and then reinserting the battery in certain devices that run Windows Mobile 5 or earlier version, the time setting is lost and reverts back to the factory default setting. If you encountered this problem, please download this patch and install it on your device to fix the problem.

I tried on my Dopod 818pro. It works too!

Higher speed card will not make your software to load faster. It only make you copy or move files faster. This is only my experience. Others might have different opinions.

Any idea how to fix it?
