Hi Guys, i just bought K610i and tried using http://gmail.com/app , the J2ME app for Gmail Mobile.

Downloading is no issue and installing is no issue.I can even connect for the first time.The email is fast and we can view attachments as well.

The only problem is that subsequently when i try to use the app again, i am unable to connect .

Have anyone faced the same problem?

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?
>> 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?

Maybe you look at updating your firmware?

I have Chinese SW Enabled ( i can write and read chinese using K610) but i dont face the same problem you do...

try the Sony Update Service (SEUS)

have anyone experienced the problem when the menu change name...things like Menu Options suddenly become numbers E.g.

Profiles Change To F4:3028
Time & Date To : F4:3078

etc?

Did you move the ringtone to a a different folder or maybe because your on a different profile ( EG NORMAL VS OUTDOORS).

Maybe those affected your ringtone?

The phone prompted me to check for a valid connection.I tried to connect via the web version m.gmail.com and it was ok but when i tried to active gmail directly from the application..it did not work...

Thanks lilzany... will try that.Now trying to install useful and free java apps...

anyone tried using K610i with the AD2P Bluetooth Headset? Any good recommendations?
