I went to the authorized SE service center, I'm told there's no solution YET on the camera issue. They don't have any other camera module to exchange cos is all the same. I'm told to wait while they will pass this matter to the SE. Heard all cybershot having the same problem, but is the yellow tint. mad.gif Any other solution on this?

I don't there there's a solution as the problem should be hardware-related.
I've been searching everywhere online for a way to fix it because I also want to buy a P1i.
But then I can't seem to find anyone with a solution to fix it. sad.gif

According to the service personnel, many cybershots models have the same problem. Is that true? This is a serious quality control issue. Can't believe it happens in a Top Japan corporate. mad.gif

so meaning I have to LIVE with the green tint? Oh no. Luckily, I seldom use the camera and still a conventional camera believer. But, I will not give up, I'll keep pushing the SE. I'm gonna write a complaint to their world wide SE service center now! tongue.gif

I don't like Fring, less features. I prefer Slick. I can add emoticon & do nulge. It only supports yh & msn msg though. I use iskoot for skype. But if u like me, who only use msn, slick is better and is free.

hi all, need some comments from u guys

i been using my old junk P900 for almost 3 years..so far so good....somehow planning to switch it to P990 but sudd i saw all the good review of this P1i...so do u guys think for a person like me who like all the features in P900, should jump to P990 or P1i??

if P1i, beside than warranty,whats the diff between AP and Ori set since there is diff of few hundred between this 2?

thx
*
To me, I have not used p990. I used few smarts phone like the old N70 & N73. IMO, i think P1i is the best smartphone I've used so far. Is very responsive & stable. My phone had hang once so far, and it was becos I was testing the max out of it by opening many many applications. After off and on, everything will go smooth. The price for AP is PURFET. I am a bit regret to buy original, cos it doesn't help me in my problem, the one and only problem, GREEN TINT! I say go for AP set. The phone just too good to have problem in 1 year time, I think. U won't need the warranty.

However, if you r not a wifi user, and a intense multimedia lover, u should consider LG Viewty. About the same price with the ori P1i. Heard many good things about it. But not my choice, cos it doesn't has the wifi.

Is still look ugly to me. Is that the best P1i can do??
Mine is original and i went to the authorised service center,
I'm told to WAIT. No replacement of what so ever was suggested.
Can I do that?? Can i ask for replacement?
I wanna make full use of the ORIGINAL WARRANTY! I spent 2100RM on it! *sad* cry.gif

I called up Sony Ericsson. Someone told me he has never received any complain about P1i on this issue!
I was quite agitated when talking with him.
Again, I am asked to WAIT!

Don't put too high hope. I went to one service center before. I also called up SE for the same complaint, both telling me:
1. WAIT
2. They have not received such complain on P1i before.

I think we need to spread this issue out, whoever got such problem should at least call up SE. They are not doin their job. Complained 2 days ago. No more news from them ever since.

Any update on the green tint? Anyone managed to get it fixed via warranty? SE center hasn't come back to me, and this is the 6th day after my complain. Hope whoever having the same problem call them up at 1-800-889900. I think they ignored my complain. I was told I'm the only one lodged such complain.

hi ALL ,
just got my P1i two days ago. my first smart phone tongue.gif

i just have one Question to all.
I find the volume really soft during conversation with other person on the otherside of the line. i mean i can hear them but its soft and not sharp (very dim sound) eventhough i've already turned the side button (forgot what u call it) to adjust the volume to MAX .
The LOUDSPEAKER is also really soft.

Does any of you feel the same too ?
*
Speaker is the 2nd thing I would complain too. Is just below expectation.

I am in my 4th month of owning the P1i.
I notice the hang issue is getting more frequent. It happened twice this month.

I always play around with the themes, icons & everyday used applications, I still find my P1i fresh as new. smile.gif

Easy, just change your firmware. To know more about this, refer to page one posted by fx. Remember to read the details including your warranty might void if you change the firmware.

I do not have any problem doin my backup. I have used p1i for 4 months, the problem I encountered so far:-
1) Phone hang around 3 or 4 times by now.
2) Green tint

Things which I hope to be improved:-
1) Speaker
2) Wireless
3) Faster processor (as a smartphone, I say the current speed is alright, but always hope for faster)

So if anyone of you facing other problems, it could be indiviual set default.

Calm down children.
At this point, which is the ultimate phone then?
Otherwise, everyone subject to say this base on their preference.
I think there's no PERFECT phone yet in the market.
No matter how good a phone is, there's always pros & cons.

Besides, the key pad works perfectly fine with many people, I for example.
I am practicing to type with one hand at this moment, cos it is the biggest problem i find with the key pad, n i believe the same applies to all qwerty key pad phones too.
