i bought a Martin Field P1i Screen protector from daijoubu previously. RM35 comes with a camera lens protector as well. (not that the camera lens protector is BADLY cut)
haven't tried it as i put a chapalang protector from SE roadshow in mid valley and i haven't been able to scratch the chapalang protector yet

that can be done by double tapping the ALT button. in that case the java system will treat ur 0-9 button as ordinary phone's 0-9

count me in if there's any.
TS create a list of P1i owner plz.

i think he meant touchscreen position.
that can be done in control panel>other>setup wizard

mine one always state there unless i read it.
another way is to tap on the little envelope on top there.

just switch to use handy clock, solve all the problems.
IMHO, the built in alarm is a piece of junk. worse than non-smartphone.

cheers.

i have not put on the martin field as the previously put screen protector is still nicely in place. i only put on the martin field camera lens protector for p1i. and hell yeah, a gathering would be nice.

sorry for ignoring all the MSN for the past two weeks or so as i'm having final exam.
now back to hometown i'm stuck here without proper internet connection.

LOL

aiyo taikor...where dare to lcly to you?
btw, what's a beamfest?

you gotta make sure the software is designed for Symbian UIQ3. All symbian OS uses sis as their installation packaging but different platform of symbian is not compatible with each other. P1i is using Symbian 9.1 UIQ3. Lookout for the compatibility

woot...as usual GW1 users get the latest firmware first.
let me go digg some info first.

regarding the GPS, is there any software that can work wif 3rd party bluetooth GPS receiver with good malaysia maps? i've searched up and down but couldn't find it. and Garmin is not my option as i already own one taiwan mari bluetooth GPS.

btw, the SE GPS receiver looks nice

addon : the new firmware seems fixed lots of things...most importantly, the speed !

1) yes, my bluetooth file transfer does not have any audio notification and i don find any setting for that as well

2) no idea

3) no idea

4) try to import the contact into outlook first, then from sync manager set the conflict management to update details inside phone first. see if this works

5) go to calls>more>extended mode then go to calls>more>edit>delete entry

first u need to understand how the GPS thingy works over the phone. it consist of 3 components :
i) GPS Antenna
ii) GPS Software
iii) Maps

the GPS antenna works by fetching signals from satellites and send them using bluetooth to the phone. The GPS Software then calculate a triangle positioning (something like the pythagoras theorem u learned in high school but more advance) of your current location and convert them into values and match them to the location in the maps and lastly displaying it.

for the case of P1i, i found quite a number of UIQ GPS software that support third party Bluetooth GPS Antenna but none of them having malaysia's maps and those GPS Software that having malaysia maps are usually made for WM device. The only comprehensive package that has UIQ GPS software and Malaysia map is Garmin but Garmin software are only proprietary for Garmin GPS receiver. That's y P1i is currently stuck with Garmin GPS system and IMHO, Garmin system is expensive.

but hold on, the SE GPS receiver handsfree HGE-100 is coming. Let's see if it supports Malaysia maps.

@Spoonkin :
i see volume, message, email and voicemail setting but there's no setting for incoming object nor any "add there" you mentioned. could it because of different organizer version?

no idea about that yet. i try to search in the SE application shop to see if there's any that is up to the locking job you requested but no luck.

here's a link for all P1i users
http://uiq3.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Phones/P1i

scroll down and there's a section called Bugs report/features request.read from esato that claims SE actually refer to this wiki to listen to user's feedback and implement on the next firmware. dunno how true is that

changing the password :

Control Panel > Security > Locks > More > Change Phone Lock

what is IEMI?
or do u mean imei number?
IMEI is globally standard *#06#

use the jogdial to push up and down
up * down down * down *

no problem.
the *#06# applies to every single piece of GSM/UMTS handset in the world, not only P1i.

btw, you're from cyberjaya?

cheers

woot, welcome chikanot.
seems like more and more P1i users. cheers.

regarding the bluetooth thingy, so far only spoonkin's phone have sound for received files.

second update to the firmware is R6F41

i got nothing to buy from P1-choice...
anyone wanna buy my points ?

there's some modding of P1i posted in this blog. perhaps all P1i modder can refer to here :
http://www.p1iblog.com/

u mean the leather / synthetic leather pouch with magnetic button?
i don use that, the original SE fabric pouch and my golla bag is good enough

you cant delete that. the folder is sms stored inside SIM card.

SONY Ericsson does not support front camera picture taking all along.
but since this is a symbian operated phone, there might be a third party software out there that could do this

i have no idea about this yet as i still using another Sharp phone that could take photo using front cam.
anyway, i'll try to look around this weekend when i am free

the 3 days battery life is already considered good for me and the QWERTY pad, trust me, it takes time to get used to it.i took almost a month to get familiar wif it and now i could type definitely faster than conventional 0-9 keypad.

as for W960, the only thing i looking forward is the Walkman 3.0 aka Walkman Touch software. anyway, there is already ppl who successfully converted the W960 firmware to be used on P1i. It is just a matter of time that someone hack to support the QWERTY pad and M2 slot. He is the same fellow that hacked M600i to be used with W950 firmware and he did ported the W950 firmware to be used in conjunction with memory card slot and QWERTY pad of M600

flashed to the latest R6F41 firmware.
major changes should be the improvement of speed when using transition and the new interface of the camera.

i like the old camera interface more though

it is already been on SEUS since last week for GW1 and GW2 CDA

yup, that is correct. to check your firmware, go to Menu > More > Information. check the version for organizer.
latest one is R6F41 while R6E30 and R6D23 is the old one

for other CDA normally u have to wait for weeks to months for SE to fully update the locale.
i couldn't wait that long and therefore i uses XS++ to change my CDA to GW1 and continue update happily ever after.
also, i seen that XS++ is able to flash the CDA to HK CDA. and i think by doing that would enable the chinese fonts and writing support.

CDA is a region number code that SE define for different region(location) or branding(O2, vodafone etc). you can check your CDA code from Menu > More > Information and under CDA, the number after the backslash is your CDA code. check the code against the one provided here http://uiq3.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/CDA/P1i to know which region your phone belongs to.

When SE release a firmware, they usually release it for GW1, GW2 and GW3 first, which stands for Generic World 1, Generic World 2 and Generic World 3.(if your CDA number after the backslash is 1,2 or 3, then they belongs to Generic World). SE after that need to make some very minor modification to the firmware (normally regional settings) to suit to different region. When you update using SEUS, it first check the CDA of your phone, and check whether the firmware has been released for your phone. From what i see on the wiki, currently only Generic World 1,2, and 3 enjoys the latest R6F41 firmware.

there are few techniques to flash to the latest firmware regardless ur CDA :
1) Fooling SEUS : look for someone who has GW1 CDA, then copy his blob_fs folder under SEUS installation directory to your PC. Compare the size of the file one by one (exact bytes) to your own blob_fs directory. once you found the matching size of the file, rename the new file to be the same as the one in your own blob_fs directory and overwrite them. Then proceed to execute SEUS. by overwriting using GW1's file, you fools SEUS into thinking your phone is GW1 and thus gives you the latest firmware regardless the CDA.

2) using davinci : google around for davinci, pay some money to get the unlocking software and proceed to modify the CDA of your phone.

3) XS++ (IMHO, free and most reliable) : visit the link here : http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=6805
Download XS++ from the link above. and then follow the step below :
i) tick smartphone connect
ii) press connect
iii) turn off your phone, remove and put back the battery, connect the USB cable while holding C button.
iv) select GDFS and press backup GDFS
v) unplug the USB cable
vi) restart XS++ (not necessarily but i found my XS++ to be error without restarting it)
vii) turn off your phone, remove and put back the battery, connect the USB cable while holding C button.
viii) select the CDA version that you want from the drop down menu and execute.
ix) disconnect and restart the phone.
x) you should now be enjoying the new CDA and proceed to SEUS to get the latest firmware.

*note : Although you may revert it to your original CDA whenever you want,there are still slight chances that you VOID your warranty by doing any of the hack mentioned above.

*note2 : phones that were bricked from SEUS update is covers by warranty while XS++ is a third part software and therefore if you bricked the phone while using XS++, it might considered warranty voided as well.
