Finally found the official thread for i780.

All in all, I'm quite happy with i780. WM6 Pro is still not user-friendly as compared to Symbian S60.

HSDPA, GPS & WiFi works perfectly. My only argument is the "sound and notification" which is bad. You can install your ringtone in storage card but in the end i780 will use the "default" ringtone. U need to put all the ringtones in the windows\ring folder... eats up your phone storage capacity.

Battery (1480mAh) is pretty bad. Only last for 1 day usage of GPS (1 hour), HSDPA (2 hours), WiFi (30 min.), voice call (30 min.), video call (15 min.), Video+Camera (10 min.).

Many claimed the 320x320 screen size lack of support for proprietary softwares. Even without RealVGA being installed, there are still essential softwares that can be installed.

Since i780 is not popular at lowyat.net, you will discover more secrets at PPCSG forum.

Did I mentioned Garmin Mobile XT + Malsingmaps works like a charm in i780? Now i'ml able to find shortcuts to anywhere i want. I luv GPS...

Just sold my e90
Thinking to get this i780 or the blackberry 8320.
Is the phone responsive?
I give up 838pro/tytyn II because of the sluggish respond

This phone for thie price has very high specs jut look at the processor and memory + it can support up to 16gb micro sd. plus the garmin works like a charm

anyone know how to set message tone w custom ringtone ?

First, you need to save the mp3(s) into Application Data/Sounds folder.

Then, goto Start > Settings > Personal tab > Sounds & Notifications

Goto Notification tab

Drop down Event : Messanging : New text msg.

Under play sound, drop-down to your desired MP3.

yess can set up for incoming call but cannot message tone ... how ?

The message tone is in the Event drop-down button. You should see "Messanging : New text msg" in the LIST.

isit Application Data/Sounds folder same as in windows\ring folder?

no....but you can try windows/ring folder asa well... both work...

windows/ring folder tried - cannot set for msg
Application Data/Sounds folder cannot find where ... huh

Just using File Explorer (in i780 of course...) , then click the top left drop-down > "My Device" > Application Data > Sounds

Hi everyone..actually, i am thinking between this samsung's model anda asus P750..

both of them got built in GPS function, which it is the thing that i am looking for PDA.. in term of this GPA function, which one is better..or is it the same?

i'm using the i780 for 2 weeks.. so far is consider ok, but the only thing is the keyboard.. the buttons are too small... the rest consider ok... hahaha

I am thinking to buy one too but my friend is complaining the volume buttons are not locked even he locks the phone.

When he keeps it in the pocket, the volume button will be pressed accidentally and mute the phone.

Anyone facing the some problem?

yes that is true, there is no lock for the side volume button. kinda annoying at ttimes
