-under service info, look for flip count (flip count should be just a few only)**
-under service test, test whatever thing you want (screen,keypad etc)...most important is to check out the total call time
-Check ur imei no (imei no can be found at the back of ur phone where u can see sirim sticker/distributor sticker) / (or press *#06# to view ur imei no)....make sure the imei no is same as the one wrote on the warranty card

ahhh.. lucky mine didnt got that micro scratch. phew.

This post has been edited by MR.Shiney: May 22 2007, 08:07 PM

Mine has loads of scratches.. but noticeable under the light. thumb prints too xD

Thumb print is common for Z610. As the shining part of the phone is the most obvious part of thumb print.

Anyone tried download/purchase games from SE's website?
I SMS'ed a few times and still haven't got any reply..

Anyone successfully downloaded one?

i replied at V1.
yes, i did downloaded The Sims 2.
minus 5 for the game, minus another 5 for data charges.
then click. not compatible

wah sei..tat's was
downloaded then not campatible.. haha..
wasted your money and time..
total 10 bucks man..

yeah, i know. i was like then was like
then i fed up and get me some free ones from mobile9.com

haha.. well wallet got a hole there..
em.. for me to get games at other chinese forum on mobile 9 lo..

aiya... why download from the webbie? i have like more than 20 games my bf download for me. is there anyway i can share the file here? if can i zip it up n u guys download from here la. but, u guys must teach me how to upload zip file first wo.

i dunno whether here let u post or not..
well or maybe u can try to pm them or they pm u to get the games lo.. hehe..

hav you tried asphalt 3?
its damn cool, even tho its 2d.
and another racing game, got real game physics.
and can bluetooth battle with others!.

the best game yet, is the happy tree friends game.
spin the bunny and let go, let the bunny on the traps to get
scores. lol, my bunny even exploded coz stepped on mine field

there's an add attachment feature when posting izzit?

i dun like play game on phone la...screen too smal n no syiok le...

camron, stil psp is de best for gaming rite???

i tot u have to select which phone model first before u can download?

hmm.. i tried some "free" games site.. but it needs internet connection.. which i dun trust.. haha

just to kill time..

oh oh...btw, my mistake...

This post has been edited by butterflydarling: May 22 2007, 10:39 PM

146? all in your phone??

btw, all the best in your exam!!

thanks!

This post has been edited by boringpig: May 22 2007, 10:45 PM

wah lau eh..146?? i got 1 game on my phone only anyway good luck for ur test...gambate neh

146 games???i wonder hw u going to finish all le...ur bf so kind wo, download so many games for u ....

eh eh...dun get me wrong. i got 146 games instaler. not in my phone. i have yet to get a 1GB m2 card. where can i get ar? cheap 1. that day at lowyat i saw some shops selling rm98 for 1GB.

wah, rm98 for 1GB ah, damn cheap d wo, whcih seller wo....tat price is superb duber cheap for 1GB m2 le....

*checks own z610i* eee....no thumb prints, no scratches too!! *touch wood* I take super care of my phone, even when I see one thumb print, I wipe it compulsively

I don't like paying for phone games. I go to mobile9 mostly. And usually I don't play games on the phone. I just download a few to standby, in case I'm really bored...I managed to get Sim2 though...from where I don't remember, maybe mobile9 too. It's fun for a while then it gets boring...

where did u get the happy tree friends' game?

Wow!!! 146 games?! can fit meh? Anyway good luck for your exam!

waaa so many downloaded games... i only have the dai dee (Big 2) and blackjack. somemore they are poorly made java games.

could you forumers kindly upload/share games for me?
so that i could save and have when got nothing to do.

to zip : open up winzip and drag the installer inside using PC

after that just click on "Add This Attachment" after you browse the zipped file to upload

looking forward for your contributions~~

Sharing games is ok. But it's violate LYN rules if those games are copyrighted.

haha..yeah ofcz..
146games..??
pheww.. even my game console dun have much games..
hehe..

em.. phone games is the easiest games..
and it really to kills some time..
for me.. play games on phone...
will spoil my d-pad..

W850i user can always use the number keypad to play games. I guess it won't break your keypad into half right ?

yeah..normally i will use the number keypad to play..
em i am an heavy gamer..
so i think phone not suitable for me myself to play games..
em.. better go for other console.. hehe..

hmm.. there is a forummer selling a sandisk 1gb @ RM120..
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=55&t=398281

but cheapest i can find in lowyat was RM158 only..

RM98 - original??

Sandisk 1GB M2 should be around that price. As Sony M2 nowadays selling at RM 140, I don't see anything wrong with RM 120 Sandisk 1GB M2.

I think butterflydarling said she'll share some with us later after her exam.

So many people want 1Gb card...but I only want 512mb...

guys, see my siggy.. guess im not be long now
this is the best hp thread. not like others. sunyi oni

yup, i said to myself " haiz, even my canggih z610i cannot play ar, aaww what the heck
*clicked download* "


at mobile9.com


there's no imitation M2 yet rite?

my gf have downloaded some games from mobile9, but she dunno where to save these games inside her phone...
the file type is: Executable Jar File
how??

nw m2 card oso getting cheaper n cheaper d..

the last name of the file must be xxx.jar
then u can save it at any folder in ur card..
after that access at your phone..
then ok liao lo..

but the name of the file is "thesims2_49upin1x", no .jar behind...
she tried to put into 'other' folder in her phone, but can't find the file once the phone is removed from pc..
what's 'Executable Jar File'?

still cheap to me.. hehe..
there was an uncle told me imitations are sold at 200+ and keep asking me to buy original.. i think this uncle... haih

i think she needs to upzip the file..
use the winrar to unzip it..

Executable Jar File a.. i think still can unzip gua..
try to use the unzip software to unzip the file...

he think he can cheat budak kecil ma....he never knw nw adays, we r more expert in gadget things than them!!!

nowadays business always do that..
CHEATING 1st
BUSINNES 2nd
SERVICE last...

wah...M2 card now super cheap..i remember last year i brought 512mb for about 180 bucks...but now selling 109...

i also wondering how come M2 is so cheap nowadays

why is sonystyle selling 1GB at RM 199 while we see 1GB here for RM 110 - RM120 only??

why z610 price still so high after so long??

price controlled

good for current z610i owners

good for me yay!

Really? Where? But 109 is still a bit expensive for me...

Coz it's MEGA COOL!!!

wah...havent log in here for 24 hrs, 2 pages extra d. just came home, kinda tired, yea, the m2 card i saw was realli rm 98 for 1 GB but sandisk la.

actuali i dun play much games la...coz scared spoil the keypad. just to past time nia.

._. you know.. i think bangsar is one expensive place.. i bought a m2 512mb for Rm150 @@" but got that 5 year warranty doodlez

oh...try goin low yat (near sg wang) not low yat net... its near sri computers there.

btw guys...i have uploaded the games here.. feel free to click n download.

o thank you so much for sharing those games with us..
great job u'd done..

thx for those games ~!

i guess it is still popular uptodate and still got people want to buy.

tq tq. dling.

but nobody biting the bait yet

Thanks for sharing!

if you sell your phone then the next owner will have a lot of headaches...do you service it first? Pity the future owner...

@Mr.Shiney

why so fast sell your z610i edy?

getting what, next?

dont say that worr..
heh, i already did the master reset.
all brand new settings just like new.
i think its a firmware problem. did read somewhere that
newer firmware got fixed those "text appears on menu" thing.
now the phone luks brand new. just sitting inside the box
waiting


got bored of it actually.
next? going for nokia 5300. cant afford N series
if i sell my blueband then can buy one
music phone top priority, but cant stand the 1.3MP camera lolx.
thought of chaning to 3250. but no AD2P profile.

This post has been edited by MR.Shiney: May 24 2007, 10:54 PM

1 month LOL yeah ppl like me. no money but likes gadgets.
try to others must sacrifice. gonna find my soul phone.
then i'll stick to it

oh you like music
why not get da SE W850i?
superb music with megabass, with a2dp, decent camera, stylish design
if you dun mind a 1 month old ap set, you can always grab it around 8xx only
pretty worthy
(anyway i saw that deal in lowyat garage)

are you serious?!
over budget for me. i even cant sell the phone at 740!
nobody interested in this phone. i got scamed this phone i bought
is a 110 more than original ap price. that time my internet got cutted out.
no time to research. 880-740 ohh dear.. so much loss over a perfectly
month old phone :/

oh sad to hear that you gotten a overpriced phone
i sold my less than half a year pinky z610i @ 700 bucks iiam

fyi, black is the least wanted / common colour among z610i
pinky is the best seller followed by blue, and black
so you might wanna re-adjust your price, or no choice, but to continue to use it lor

yeah, but i like black. what to do
*gulp* 700... makes me wanna cry summore

New set I saw is just RM 740 for AP set. Black and blue color the same price. It will be easier for you to let go if you lower down your price more.
People will think that your set already 1 month old yet selling at this price, why not get a new set with the same price right ?

Anyway, just my opinion.

heehee...ur most welcome. well as stated some is for k800i.

where did you see it?

im not being an ass. i bought it for 880.
if i bought it 780. surely i'll go down even further.
okay lesson learned. research first no matter what.
how much for 1gb of MicroSD nowadays huh?

This post has been edited by MR.Shiney: May 25 2007, 12:03 PM

mate, buyers will not care how much you buy
they only wan as low as possible

This post has been edited by panasonic88: May 25 2007, 12:05 PM

You can check one of the forumer price at here.
Buyer will for sure check it first before buy.

MicroSD ? Z610 using M2. Not MicroSD.

Exactly.
