my set has no squeaky sound, very solid n perfect.

The 3rd party softwares is not something WOW enuff, basically, your phone has the basic functions to do the task, or it is not really necessary to have. Perhaps save your points for future applications better.

I just pray it won't hang (so far never happened even though I open a few applications at once), fast (the responce of opening new application is good), and LONG BATTERY (i still think if can last 4 days will be better)

Iss a perfect phone, congrats to those who just joined this P1i family, u have got one of the best so far.
*
my first set was full with trouble but the second set has been nice though. only hanged one or two times through my two months plus of usage and that is due to extreme abuse of the phone. does not experience squeky sound too.

Want to ask, does this phone has Megabass?

& writing message/sms, is it possible to change the background to black & alphabets to white?
*
using a black background with white font theme will do

Hi all,

I'm new here. Quite keen to get a P1i soon and has been reading this forum lately.

So, has anyone answer the questions above? Can P1i uses the WIFI access at Starbucks and Coffee Bean area?

Thanks
*
P1i can be used on all public wifi that is B compatible EXCEPT those who uses flash page as login menu such as... coffee bean.
sweat that P1i does not support flash.

Hi,

Mobile Review website has a review on the W960 and they compare it with P1i...so do read it if you are considering both this phones.

I'm also considering these 2 phones as well....weighing the pros and cons now
*
the only things that interest me wif W960 is walkman 3.0 and the bundled A2DP earpiece.
if asking me to choose again now, with the affordable price of P1i, i would say P1i suits me better. cuz even topping up a A2DP earpiece would most probably still be cheaper than W960.
and firmware hack also will make walkman 3.0 possible in near future. tongue.gif

hi all,

Just got my P1i AP set for RM1600 with 1g plus 512mb card.
Overall pretty good, cant really do a review on this cos this is my first PDA phone.

But I got one problem, I dont seem to be able to pull out my simcard from my P1i. does anyone face the same problem. help.
*
virgin phone is a lil tight.
try to press the sim firmly and drag it out slowly.
you need some friction to bring it out

Camera : if not better then it is at least on par with K800i
Firmware : has been stable enough since the first R6D23 release. in the period of my 3 months usage, it only hanged 1 to 2 times only.

new firmware is R9J005 - R6F41, you can update it if you are GW1, to be GW1, you need XS++ to change region.
*
QUOTE(kenji82 @ Nov 14 2007, 09:00 PM)
thanks....how to check the region is GW1?
*
the new firmware is not limitedly available for GW1 only, it was available for GW2, GW3 and now available for middle east CDA as well. other CDA will be made available soon. just wait if you do not want to mess with the phone's CDA as it will void the warranty.

as for CDA, just go to main menu > system info , check the number after the slash under CDA. 1,2,3 or 9 would be representing GW1, GW2 , GW3 and middle east.

gosh, SE updated the middle east fellow's before anyone else.

I worry to change my firmware to something else. Perhaps I should just wait for the update to my current one. How to know when my version is available for upgrade?
*
depends on youself. the risk of changing CDA is very low. but might void the warranty. depends on the luck of your region, the wait might take place up to a month or two doh.gif

again, if your phone is AP set. i don't think their service center will even bother what CDA you have since they might import the phone from different region all the time. (most probably they don't even know there's such thing called CDA)

it is just regional setting, so it's not to be surprised that we have S'pore setting as we share a lots of things in common (language, time zone etc) i don't think there's a specific CDA for Malaysia as i've never seen a pre-set RM symbol in any phone before. And also, there's very few CDA that has firmware comes with Chinese input support. so far i only notice HK, S'pore and Taiwan has chinese input. And S'pore has two CDA where the other one does not support chinese.

does the phone has wifi?

in the website it states that it has WLAN...

whats the difference?

they are the same Wifi = Wireless Fidelity = WLAN = Wireless LAN = IEEE 802.11

is it just me or anybody else have these kind of problems:

When I switch off or changing theme the date format will revert to YY/MM/DD and time format will revert from 24hrs to 12hrs?

When installing swiss manager pro there is annoying icon when I am in the main menu and in the others menu apart from standby/desktop even after I disable it in the software (swiss manager)...

When I ended up a call there is still blank dialog box on the desktop and hav to press back button or backspace to go to standby/desktop

When I press a speed dial number (ie: no 2 for xxx person) there isnt any xxx person name displayed in the dial box apart from the picture.

Sometimes the phone automatically locked by itself but sometime dont. (the phone's lock was set as auto)

other than that the phone is working superb...
*
1) i seldom play with theme so cannot confirm this
2) my swiss manager don have this problem
3) blank dialog is there when i end up call
4) i don use speed dial, i have more than 9 people that i call frequently, so instead i make a folder in contact with all the frequently called number in it.
5) my phone lock is working normal

Thanks dude, maybe because of the firmware..urs is a new one rite?
My firmware (dont know which one is which so here is info@main menu)

Phone: CXC162037 R9H004
Blutooth: quite sure this isnt firmware version but anyway CXC162143 R1D
Organizer: CXC162156 R6E30
CDA: CDA162024/95 R5A 

Fuhh  sweat.gif
just knowing that my phone region is set to spore...That is all I that know of
Swiss manager pro huh...just install it to play around...I think it acts like a system optimizer 4 phone...correct me if i am wrong thou....keylock that is, was set to automatic but sometime need to manually lock. Going to try to update the phone using SEUS later on.

Thanks
*
mine is the latest R6F41, yours is the second release (R6E30).
try sending back to service centre to re-flash the firmware if the problem still exist. some of those you mention especially keylock does not occur in all 3 P1i firmware i came across.

i have another problem here with handy clock. previously whenever i set an alarm to be rang weekly, it doesn't work properly and when it is the time it's suppose to be ringing, it's showing bunch of weird code. now that i master reset the phone and reinstall it, it does ring but still comes with the weird code. anyone encountered this?

hi fx_53_xt, are you using SEUS to update your firmware?

indirectly, yes. after changed the CDA to GW1, then used SEUS to update.

QUOTE(karlcheong @ Nov 16 2007, 09:59 PM)
Yes you can. Just that there is no update for CDA /95 yet. Its still R9H004. The latest is R9J005
*
R9J005 is the phone software which normally doesn't affect much, firmware is referred to organizer software version as it govern the overall operation of the phone.

Does the latest firmware (R9J005?) supports Chinese? I see they just updated the Hong Kong & taiwan firmware yesterday, mine still no luck. And is a German generic. But currently support Chinese.

Added on November 18, 2007, 12:16 pm

Oh we r the same. Do u notice the CDA162024/95 is not listed in the wiki CDA list? I just persume it is the germany generic base on the R5A. Why does it happen? Which region r we in actually? I'm thinking to flash my firmware to Taiwan to support the Chinese writing.

I don't know why my camera shutter has no sound. I tried shutter 1 - 4 and off, all without shutter sound. Please help.

as from my googling around shows that /95 is sg based CDA. but to confirm this you can connect to SEUS and see what it says about /95

No i didn't. I connect my phone via cable, then i open XS++, I tick smart phone and press connect without pressing C. I tot I only need to press the C when I on the phone after:- disconnected the cable ,reinsert the battery & reconnect the cable?
*
you need to press C everytime you connect
pressing the C button is somehow like allowing the PC to access the ROM portion of the phone.
and XS++ need this connection as it is messing around with your codes stored inside the ROM

oops, did i said messing around tongue.gif
