All 838 Pro experts,

I really need your advice and help. Ever since i upgraded my OS to WM6, i can't surf internet with my Dopod 838 Pro. I tried reinstalling all Maxis settings but still cannot.

Before the upgrade, I can surf net with it. After upgrade, i cannot do it anymore. Any clues guys?

Cheers,
AC

how bout remove your sim card + memory card then see if your problem still occur?? if yes then could be a failure set.
warranty still valid? if yes go for warranty. if your warranty has expired then you may try to flash custom rom + radio.

hi..
i have a problem. at the moment i'm using the 1350mAh battery for my dopod n it only lasts about 4-5 hours.  cry.gif
problem, coz i have to always connect the dopod to a charger. i also have another battery, which also lasts around the same period of time.  cry.gif
does anyone know what might have cause the problem? or memang battery dia only lasts that long? doh.gif
thanx!
*
4-5 hours is for talk time max with bluetooth ON + Wifi or games.
if above mentioned is none then it could be some of your application consume too much battery power, mind list out what application you have on your 838pro?? maybe i can help you slove it out. cheers

is there anyway i can have two outlook account/file??

the main thing is..i want to sync 2 device into 1 pc, but dont want thing two combine...

afaik, 2 different device's task , contact , appointment will merge into same outlook account, unless you create new user on your pc which mean you will have to logon to each user on your pc to sync your different devices.

hey guys
i read first page and noticed all those screen alignment issues?
ive used my dopod over 1 year now and now started to die on me.

I've mainly a few problems. First and most annoying is the screen becomes white. Cant do anything except keep on off it. Second is the keypad slides are  very loose now. Third is my green/red button arent working sometimes.

Anyone faced this kinda problem b4? How much rougly to get fixed? Sigh
*
why dont you do hardreset. if problem still there, you might have to try flashing ROM.

1 question i want 2 ask...
about ROM version..looks like many of us upgrade their ROM..
what this is for?something different like increase speed or what?
my ROM version is 3.54.707.1
what latest version now?
i become interested 2 upgrade but i don't know actually what this is for..  rclxub.gif
and 1 thing,it is true if we upgrade the ROM no more warranty for our phone?
i just bought this phone for only 2 month..  hmm.gif
*
1 question? there is alot of question.. whistling.gif whistling.gif
let me answer your 1 question .

1. something new lor, and yes will increase the speed.
1. official latest rom i have no idea even those who load to custom rom doenst know official rom version.
1. well, upgrade rom its for fun, there is many flavor to pick.
1. True, once you upgrade to custom rom your warranty will be void. but you still can revert back to official rom just incase.

No its not like that. Okay here the case is

As usual when my phone is put idle for a while it'll turn off , and u need to press the power button to activate it right. Then sometimes when i pres the power button, nothing appears in my screen, I press and press nothing happen. Then u can see the power indicator is still blinking. I cant do anything but to reset it by pressing the hole down there with the stylus.

And sometimes when activating , it seems completely shut down and when i press the power button and it shows the start up screen , and the whole PDA is rebooting.

OMG... Is my phone screwed?
*
ya, your phone is screwed. well unscrewe it.

1.remove your sim card / memory card then try to boot into OS.
2.could be your battery issue? try to test on others battery.
3.some applications might causing your device fail to boot into OS
4.worst case, you might have to HARDRESET.
