i juz bought an AP set few weeks ago.. bought it mainly coz of its sexy looks and its one of the cheapest 3g phone available in the market 2day.. besides, it packs quite a lot of function for that kinda price range..

mine has that 3 logo at the back, but it doesn't come out in the outer screen like the pic senyap721 has posted.. mine also doesnt have that planet 3 thingy showing at the screen.. been kinda wondering, wats the meaning of that 3 logo?? any difference??

so far, been satisfied wit the phone.. only downside ive found so far is that it couldnt view n open big resolution pics, n thats a real shame coz these days most phone cams can take pics more than 3mp resolution..

yeah.. i think motorola did a very good job.. i think this phone fits me quite good.. yeah, it only has a 1.3mp cam, no flash, n the speaker's not as good as the one's on sony ericsson.. but then again, i dont need a super sharp cam, coz i think i can live wit a 1.3mp only.. the quality's quite good n its certainly better than some of the bigger resolution cams i found on nokia's.. furthermore, if i wanna take a high quality pic, my normal digicam can do the job 4 me.. besides, cams on phones pretty much suck anyway on any brands of mobile phones.. wanna take serious photos, use a digicam..

i dont need it to be a fabulous music player as well, coz i my ipod covers that job very well.. all i need from the speakers is not high quality stereo wit excellent bass quality, i juz need it 2 be able 2 play my mp3 ringtones loudly n clearly so i would be able 2 hear it if i receive sms or phone calls even in shopping centres as well as wake me up every morning using the alarm clock function.. n it does that pretty well 4 me..

the only few things annoying me wit this phone is the disability 2 view high resolution pics n also the keypad.. although they look like modern art, but i find myself always accidentally pressing the browser button when i type sms.. really2 annoying, but, i guess i can live wit it.. besides, they keypad's one of the main reason y i decided 2 get this phone.. they look uber cool especially in the dark..

i guess, this phone is like an aston.. lots of fault wit it, but the way it looks, u juz melt looking at it.. u juz feel like licking it or sumthin tongue.gif

type slowly lor.. the only way to solve it..
cannot laa.. already so used 2 typing sms fast, especially that b4 this im using a nokia.. wit a nokia its easy 2 type sms in lightning fast speed.. so kinda already got used 2 it.. n when i do this wit the v3xx, i always end up launching the browser or worst, hitting the green answer call button, which in this phone is a short cut 4 sending the sms.. this resulted in me always accidently sending the sms b4 i finished typing em..

bro,this hp got vibrate+ring?  i got big thumbs.. i wonder if will affect my sms typing speed or not  sad.gif
of coz got vibrate + ring.. or not, i wouldnt have got it tongue.gif

big thumbs shouldnt be a prob i think, coz the buttons itself r quite big.. but when u type fast, n coz the buttons r all flat, u accidently press the wrong one..

ONE MORE THING : any idea how to install themes on this phone?? i tried grazing 4 it on the net, but couldnt seem 2 find any..

Anyone with warming problems? Mine sometimes get warm up expecially when the battery is low - 1 bar brown/yellow calour. I am using AP fone - 3 brand
nope.. none of that prob 4 me..

btw, ive found another irritation 4 me 2wards this phone.. the battery indicator, when its down to 2 bars, then when i make a phone call or play some mucic or games, it suddenly n immediately goes 2 no bars at all n the red indicators are on, indicating that batt is low.. i want something in between, like 1st show 1 bar left, then only show batt low laa.. its kinda like the complaints people have wit the digital fuel indicators we have on cars 2day.. theyre not really very accurate, one moment it says full, another it goes straight to empty..

im not complaining bout the batt standby time, coz 4 me its good enough.. i got bout 3 days standby time wit my normal usage of the phone..

maybe your battery screw up.. u must be always charge when still have 50% battery life..
i dont think its the batt's fault, coz like i said, i get quite good standby time.. im not complaining bout the standby time of the batt, im complaining bout the batt life indicator on the phone..

btw, shouldnt u charge the phone when the batt is already nearly empty?? not 50% rite??

nice price u got there.. quite sizeable drop on the price these days..

when i bought it last yr (cant remember which month), it was 600++.. n i didnt even have enough budget 2 get a big memory card.. so the shop offered me a free 128mb one.. gonna upgrade meybe one of these days.. a 2gig would be nice..

mine donest have that vodafone logo (mine's ap too), but it does have that no 3 logo on the back of the fon..

thnx prinze..

but i got a prob wit creating web sessions.. when i wanna create a new one, theres no option for 'create new'.. then theres already 2 other web sessions labeled maxis mms gprs n maxis wap gprs, n at the the side of these 2 web sessions, theres a pad lock icon.. so i cant delete them or edit em..

wat should i do??


Added on June 26, 2008, 1:43 pmprinze.. juz 2 let u know, ive temporarily solved the prob.. i cant edit the maxis web sessions becoz of the padlock icon i think.. so i juz edited the existing web sessions in the phone according 2 the settings u posted.. only thing is i cant change the profile name, so its a temporary fix.. i can browse gprs now but havent tested mms yet.. hopefully works..

but still, do help me wit the web sessions wit the padlock icon.. wat r those?? y cant i delete or edit em?? n y cant i creatw new web sessions??

maybe those with padlock is the settings u downloaded from Maxis, so unable to change.. there is no "Create New", probably u already used up the maximum number of settings.. try to delete those unnecessary profiles such as other country profile if yours is AP unit...

if you follow the same method to key in the MMS settings, u will be able to send & receive MMS.. cheers..
ive solved it, thnx a lot prinze thumbup.gif

btw, i cant delete the original settings in the phone either, only can edit..

so, wat i did was i master reset everything n the maxis web sessions gets deleted as well.. but the original web sessions still remains.. so i created the web sessions juz like u told me, n now everything's ok..

thnx very much prinze.. so happy now able 2 mms n surf web again thumbup.gif

I'm facing the exact problem... But i'm using celcom instead..
Configure it through website too.. Still cant both gprs and mms to work..  rclxub.gif
most probably same prob as mine.. can u edit or delete the celcom configuration??

maybe need 2 do manual configuration like wat i did, but instead of maxis setting, u need celcom ones instead.. anybody knows??
