Hi all SE sifus,

Considering to move to SE. Have been a Nokia user for the last 10 years. Questions:

1. Does SE K610i support caller group with different caller ringtones (not individual contacts)?
2. How many caller groups can the user create?
3. How much does the M2 1GB cost?
4. Does the original package include data cable?
5. How do I transfer my existing Nokia contacts to the new SE?
6. Am I doing the right thing? smile.gif

Hi all. I'm a first time SE user & bought the K610i last Thurs. Have been a Nokia user for the last 10 years.

I have 3 questions:

1. I can't search for contact nos by using more than 1 letter. It only recognise the 1st letter. Eg. To search for Jimmy; When I key in J + I + M + ... : my contact stays at the first contact no with the letter J, eg. Jamal. Then I have to scroll down to find Jimmy. Is this normal? My brother's SE Z520i can search by using all letters. How do I 'activate' this search method?

2. I can't set different ringtones to different caller groups. Can only use the caller group to send multiple sms. How to enable this function?

3. What is the latest firmware available for this phone?

That's all for now. Might have more questions in the near future.

Thanks.

>> I just got my K610i as well, if you key in the J +I+M continuously, the search bar at the top will show JIM and will sort your list accordingly.
>> If you key in J pause I pause M pause, then you will be just searching for J alone.

2. I can't set different ringtones to different caller groups. Can only use the caller group to send multiple sms. How to enable this function?
>> we can set individual ringtones to specific contact but i am not sure of SE support Caller Groups.

3. What is the latest firmware available for this phone?
>> Refer link http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=131325

>> Hope that helps...

2. have to accept. thanks.

3. thanks.

Update

1. On the contact search matter. Got it solved. Deleted all my contacts in the phone. verified all the contact full names format in outlook. made sure all contact are in first name field. then synch again with k610i. the search by all character works now.

seems that my previous contacts were saved in different format, some in first names, some in last names, some mixed. confused the phone i think.

Hi.

How do I display all those base station location details for Celcom subscribers with the K610i?

Can't seem to find it.

If you mean the video calls, it's network dependent. In good coverage area - it's good.

Does anyone know where we can update the firmware if we use an AP phone?
*
regardless of being an AP or ori unit, with the provided software & data cable in the box, you should be able to update your firmware online FOC. try it - simple task. just follow the instructions of the software.

Just upgraded to R1GB001. mine is ori. but the software never asked for midland/thorus/etc. code. so i assume - it doesn't matter if its AP or ori.

however where can we read what is inlcuded in the new firmware update? what can it do or what bug have it fixed?

thanks.

If u want to buy K610i ... please dont buy CID51 .. hard to reflash using third party app. trust me ... sometime SEUS cannot totally 'reformat' your K610i ....
