may i ask?y de ap set for p990 price drop so much?is it tis phone is so terrible cause to tis???

Hehe guys, what applications do you have in your phone?

I have:
Swiss Manager Pro
Windows Live Messenger
Agile Messenger
McAfee Antivirus
McAfee Firewall
DivX Player
Screen Capture
SMS Diary
Handy Day
Handy Safe
Connect Me!
Worldmate Pro Edition
Opera Mini
MS Dictionary
Live TV
Mobipocket Reader
LocationFree Player

Games:
Oh no More Lemmings
Sky Force Reloaded
Eggstreme 3

Hehe all full versions and I've still alot of softwares yet to be installed. If you guys wanna know where to get these, PM me =)

My advice to those who experience slow running of the processor:

Swiss Manager --> Settings --> Cleanup when closing flip.

It will end all your applications and free your memory each time you close your P990i's flip.

Happy trying!

Just 1 more thing need to know before I proceed to order my unit. For those ap owners, are you guys able to update the firmware on your own?

Yes you can through SEUS, but I'd rather not take the risk, I'd just pay RM50 to SE service centres to get it done for me =)

But seeing that you're only getting your unit now, I guess the firmwares are pretty much alright already.

dam my web broweser always close down when i surf heavily photo site. does the newest generic firmware set fix this program?? is this ram problem or wat? thx

Any reason why you wanna pay since you can diy?

ok, let me explain. if ur set is a hong kong set. u can only update back to ur hk newest firmware thru diy. but if u update thru SECS, u can request them to flash ur phone's firmware to the generic world 2 latest firmware tat is said to be much much more stable than others. correct me if i made a mistake. Cheerzz.....

Because if your phone were to crash midway through updating, you might as well throw your phone into the bin.

Yes, you can update easily through SEUS. I have tried updating mine and so far no problem. Mine is Singapore set.

Bro, that's called flashing, not updating. Flashing costs more (last checked was RM90).

yup its the ram problem..go to opera and download the opera mini web application..its better...

yo blink what firmware your phone is using?

Seems perfectly fine to me, 3 days without any glitches once.

Ok then since can diy flash I should be confirm with my purchase. Was struggling between wm5 device and p990i but since p990i is hell lot cheaper, I guess I grab it.

Trust me.

GO SONY ERICSSON AND YOU'LL NEVER TURN BACK

If you are new to both OS, better get try of the WM5 first, cause it is more easy to operate and at least, more application and games to choose. But most of the WM phone lag of the 3G function, if you want an all in one phone, get the P990i, with the latest firmware, you wont regret.

About the wlan function, i think that the reception is kinda weak compare to my previous WM phone (O2 atom and Eten M500 (with SDIO) . If the signal status there appear only one bar, means that if you successful connect to the network, you still cannot use it to browse the net. For an example, in my school there, the building got 5 floor, when i am in the 2nd floor (inside the classroom), the signal is extremely strong, full 3 bars, and i can browse all the website i want. When i go up to 3rd floor, in the same position as 2nd floor, the signal became 1 bar only, sometimes even cannot connect to it. I wonder if it is cause by the 802.11b (but not g) .

I had bad experience with old ppc device before therefore I usually will go for other alternative. I do find that symbian aint that bad compare to wm and most important, its much more affordable. Previously was using palm before changing to symbian.

I beg to differ, I find UIQ much easier to use than WM.

Well, after years of using SE, I'm turning back to Nokia.

I once had the same thinking as you.

This I agree. But WM has more 3rd party apps support and that made me switch to WM and left the UIQ 3.0 scene.

Any reason why you chose Nokia now?

I think Sony's software is much more pleasing on the eyes and more functional. But in terms of stability, i definitely think Nokia's software is much more refined.

Remember to get the generic world version. Don't get other version if you want the most stable and up to date firmware.

does current new ap set originally comes with generic world version firmware?
