actually i doubt on E51 WLAN function
fed up bout the connection
can't sign in live messenger (hav to try many many time)
web also slow

Where are you connecting to? Corp WLAN? Home? Coffee shop? It's pretty fast for me, when either in the office or at home. YMMV when at public hotspots.

no problem on my e51. working fine. live messenger operational and web is fast. maybe depends on the strength of the connection wherever u r.

The WLAN is working fine for me.
The problem might be with the wireless connection that you're connecting to.

when i try to connect at house
my brother's laptop connection is normal,ndsl as well...
but my E51 (sometime still get connect)

i'm also try it at my college....
but totally nv success connecting

Well, if home connection is concerned, for me is definitely so far so good, no serious problems noticed.
As for college/university connection, mine really sucks big time. I always get disconnected all of a sudden.

My E51 wireless is fast, fast than my PC. No problem so far.

Hi,

Thanks,

hi gents, i like to check if uk handset under t-mobile can be unlocked in malaysia. want to send back la, too many handphone here

thanks in advance

Not so sure, but if nothing has changed since 1998, you should be able to use your UK mob here without unlocking. I used to be on Vodafone. Send me 10 quid and I'll mail you a pre-paid SIM to test out.

manage to get the leather flip case thru online - pdair.com for RM90. Reached my home address quite fast about 5 days time.

how about e61i??
any drawbacks?

got usb cable charging for this phone ma?

I need it badly, I use E51 as 3G modem, becoz the 3G modem drain battery like drink water

I have gone tru CA-70 details, but i think it's not for E51 becoz of the data connector connector not for E51, only the charging connector same

if anyone know where got other usb charging cable compatible with E51 sell at Penang, let me know, thx in advance

search at quensbay...must hv 1 but not so sure the prc

here i bought crytal case for E51 from ebay
RM25+ for twin pack

I started out with a drawstring pouch too. In the end, too lazy to take the trouble of taking it out and putting it back in every time a call comes in. In the end using it bareback, with a screen protector of course.

Hey guys. Just found out that there's a new firmware available for this phone. Hv any of yall updated it?

Ooh, I wanna try. Let me back stuff up first. Will try it out and report back.

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:31 pmDear boys and girls, remember to back your stuff up, 'cos the updating process will wipe everything and you'll have to restore a backup later.

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:32 pmFirmware version
Current: 100-34-20
Update: 200-34-36

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:38 pmUpdate started. Windows will detect some new hardware. Some actually failed installation. Let's hope nothing goes to hell.

/fingers crossed

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:41 pmUpdate complete! Now to take it for a swing and see what's new. Will hold off restoring the backup, just to have that new phone feeling again.

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:45 pmHot damn! It's pretty darn fast! Minor delays from the initial firmware isn't noticeable now!

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:51 pmOK, happy with the new firmware. Now to restore an old backup.

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:52 pmPhone seems to be missing PC Suite Support after the flash. Hmmm... Will try reinstalling.

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:55 pmAh, it was pretty painless.

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 10:55 pmNow restoring backups. Let's hope Exchange is restored properly.

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 11:03 pmWow. Even after restoring the backup, the phone is still pretty darn fast. Now, it may be a placebo effect, but I do indeed notice the speed bump. Why don't you guys give it a spin and let me know how it swings for ya.

Over and out!

---

Added on June 12, 2008, 11:13 pmWowzers. Maps 2.0 is pretty darn fast too!

Congrats on you. Now i guess its my turn next. But i have one question. I have installed lots of software such as core player, dictionaries, Java games, papyrus etc. Will that get backed up too or do i have to install all over again?

If you choose to select all the available options to backup including external memory card when prompted by the phone backup software, it should make an exact duplicate of all the contents of your phone. Anyway, I'm not 100% confirm for those 3rd party software installed but if data such as docs, mails, mp3s etc are concerned, they will definitely remain intact as it is.

Added on June 13, 2008, 11:10 amI have encountered a weird problem with my E51 Windows Live Messenger and Mail. They can't connect to the server for some reason although web browsing is absolutely fine.

Error message returned:
"Sign-In Failure"
"Windows Live is temporarily unable to connect. This may be because your phoneis in the 'Offline Mode' or you do not have a data connection. Please check your access point and network settings and try again."

Any idea or suggestion for this weird problem?
