Hi, anyone know how much does it cost to change a W850i's housing? Thanks

If possible both lo... So I can compare the price

I'm in Penang

By the way, how to check firmware revision ya?

Thanks for the reply, I'm just a new W850i user so still not so familiar with it

But my friend has been giving me doubts, saying that W850i is very bad and this and that and that SE had recalled all W850i because... Is it true about the recall and that the phone is bad? I am a lil worried now

I don't mind the lack of AF, just worried there might be some more serious trouble (My friend said a lot of trouble like W900i, can explode ). But... So far I didn't face any

Then I'll just ignore him la

Can experience users here give me some tips on how to take care of this phone? I know cannot use finger nails to press the down D-Pad or it will crack... Anything else I need to be careful about?

Thanks ya

That one I know... Now testing the A2DP feature, not bad

Oh ya, my firmware is R1KG001, need to update?

W900i kinda laggy compared to other SE phones, S500i has keypad problem (Not sure if SE've fixed it or not, so better buy Midland set or you'll need to pay RM80 or so to replace a cracked pad everytime... Which might happen every week )

W850i, so far I have no problems besides the loose slider (When extended, the upper part is a lil loose, about 0.5mm), but all slider phones are roughly the same I think

One more question... How to switch to the front camera instead of the main camera? I know N70 and K800i can, but can't seem to find the option on W850i

Thanks. I was indeed using the front camera as a sort of mirror Very handy especially when I fell asleep in the car and needed something to check myself when I wake up

Weak connection due to interference? I have a DS970 as well but I still can get clear signal when I put my phone in my pants pocket. Does this happen to other songs or just a few in particular? Try to test out the range of your DS970 by leaving your W850i on the table (Must be a safe place where no one will snatch it ), and walk away from it. See how far you can go. Mine works about 5m before the sound breaks up.

You remind me of my English teacher

Anybody here protect their W850i with a crystal casing? I'm thinking of putting on one, but afraid it might actually scratch the phone instead of protecting it Anybody with any experience?

Any problem with the sliding mechanism? I've got a silicon case for W850i but it makes the phone so fat and a bit hard to slide

The silicon ccase I bought can also slide on it's on because of some hard plastic thing holding it on the sides. Are all silicon casings for slide phones alike? Because mine looks particularly FAT

Yes, I'm using one right now. So far no problems

W910i has reached Malaysia ady meh? Or perhaps I'm too outdated

Anyway, I've just installed a crystal casing for my phone, and it seems to be quite tight especially between the 2 sliding parts, so no more wobbling on the upper. That's a good thing right? Will it make the slider more loose?

Added on September 13, 2007, 11:29 pmWHOA! I just saw the crystal casing video! Thank God just put on mine for 5 minutes and slided the phone twice... Removing it now... Luckily no see-saw effect when the slider is closed

With the crystal casing on, I doubt you'll notice any see-sawing because force is still being exerted on the sliders. After you take it off... Then...

Sometimes it's better to not know, because if you don't know then you won't feel bad
