Good news to those who want to flash their phones to firmwares of other regions. Check it out here.

Btw, it'll cost you 6 euro, equivalent to RM28, which is much cheaper than flashing done by SE center (RM100).

I've heard of that website before, and according to a lot of forumers, it seems to work for them quite well despite the hurdles they have to face first..

Once you upgrade your firmware to the latest one (not sure which one you're using right now, whether Generic World or Singapore or some other sets), there will be a button called 'Speaker' appearing when someone calls you (or vice-versa).

Hmmm...on my phone the options that come out are only yes, mute and no when someone calls me. I am using the latest firmware.

blinky : i think its around rm100-200 for ori ones. just my estimation. can ask @ any SESC. SE S700i ori housing + keypad is around RM180-190. smile.gif dont think M600i got Grade AAA type of housing. such rare model... tongue.gif

nicholas84 : how much u got it, bro? glad u finally found one. welcome to the club. rclxms.gif biggrin.gif

haha..got the same problem with mine too. lost the clip when keep take battery in & out last time when changing the simcard. u can get it repaired @ any SESC for a charge of RM70-80. forgot the price the salesperson quoted for me last time but its around that range. forgot the part's name already. tink it's middle panel or sumting. the clip comes with it. blush.gif

but u gotta pay some deposit 1st then wait for few weeks for the parts to arrive coz they gotta order it. that's what the salesperson told me. the SESC i went to is Maxicom @ Tmn Segar, Cheras. smile.gif

RM1k? the M2 is 64mb? its ok la, man. handsfree wont cost much right? can get the HPM-70 for RM40 only. tho its AP. smile.gif

when u bought it should check the whole phone & take off the battery compartment case . when comes to used items we have to check it properly. if new items then nvm..that's for me. tongue.gif

mine the clip gone but the plastic didn't patah. i DIY myself a clip with the same shape & curve. wanted to go to SESC change the whole middle/back panel at 1st but duwana waste the money. smile.gif

100% confirmed it can be replaced. dont worry. just maybe they need 2 order & u have 2 wait. just go to any SESC & tell them ur problem. good luck man. smile.gif

p/s : your's AP or ori set? coz if ori i think maybe can be replaced for free. not sure. blush.gif

No, what I meant was the Speaker button will appear when you answer the phone call. Try that and see?

To all bros,

Im a newbie here. Just got my P990i Set Two Weeks ago. Upgraded from a P910i and P900i. So I can give some comparisions here.
I got myself a Singapore Generic set because the price of the Ori Set from S.E was way too expensive. Previous two sets were ori sets but this time, the price difference of about RM750 was too much already.

I upgraded to the latest firmware from the Official Online S.E Update Centre. No probs for me. Flash the Updated the software to CXC 162037 R9EA001. So far so good. Lesser restarts and probs. The phone runs much faster already. U must always try to free up memory by using the task manager and close applications that you are not using. I also free up some internal memory by deleting the demos in the phone.
One of the downsides of the phone is that the internal memory seems to be smaller than of the P910i. Could someone explain the reason for this? Also the sound quality from the P990i is somehow poorer than the P910 though it has polyphonic capabilities.
One the bright side, the the bright side is that the Camera is much better compared to the P910i. I also love the WIFI function. The battery comsuption is as usual, just like its predecessors....could only last a day.
The display is much better. At first didnt like the way the phone functions, but after some getting used to, it seems more efficient than the P910.
Overall, I think the phone is great. Definite a worthy phone to buy. Dont say Im biased though Im a P Series Die Hard Fan. I think the phone just needs some more time to develope.

One Question though to all Sifus here, Im Using Celcom 3G. The thing I noticed is Signal Strength on my phone seems weaker than other phones like the K700i. When they have 5 Bars of line, sometimes I will only have 4 bars. Does the P990i have weaker signal strength or does the phone have problem? Anybody faced this problem before? Im geting worried bout this.
Also my Area Information on Channel 50 dont seem to work anymore. It used to work before I flashed to the new firmware. Anyone could answer my these two questions.

Thank You.

That isn't true. Is my phone the only P990 that has the Speaker button thingy in the middle of a call? I can snap a picture to prove it.

Congrats Bro, I'm own a P990i, I still have my P900i with me. Well, my firmware is the same as yours but then, I'm not to happy with the phone, it's still slow and sluggish if compared to my P900i and that's even through even I left the internal phone memory untouch. Signal strength is like my P900i, it's poorer, my K800i registered 3-4 bars, my P990i registered around 2 bars. doh.gif

got question for p990i users...have you tried with the latest firmware to open three or four applications in one time... hmm.gif
let's say,you open;calender,to-do,message and songs...would the phone freeze or hanged?...or you can simply use on by one...then close it after finish anyone of it... unsure.gif
