Before buying: If possible please check the camera shots of the unit to see if theres a green tint on the captured photo. To do this,place a sheet of yellow paper on a good lighting environment and turn off the LED light. Take a picture of the paper

FAQ,
by fx_53_xt updated by carbon14

Q : Why i couldn't login into some of the hotspot while other just work fine?
A : P1i doesn't not support flash and therefore hotspot login tat is using flash interface will not be useable. also note that if hotspot is operating under Wifi-G only mode, P1i will not be able to connect to the network.

Q : How do i view system information / firmware version?
A : go to main menu > more > system information

Q : how do i access the service menu?
A : by scrolling the jog dial up and down, do the following combination trick : up,*,down,down,*,down,*

Q : How do i calibrate the touch screen like the one in windows mobile?
A : go to Main menu > Control Panel > Other > setup wizard. It is available at the last step.

Q : How do i setup the phone for receiving Gmail?
A : Taken from UIQ3 thread :
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Q : can i enable chinese support without messing the firmware?
A : you can add support to view chinese fonts but not input. download the file here unzip and then create a folder called resource/font inside your memory card and put the files there. restart your phone and voila, you should be able to read chinese words (credits to the author at http://secentral.net/forum/index.php?topic=12325.0)

Q : Why i'm not able to stream the video from the mobile youtube using wifi but it works fine with 3G?
A : The reason behind this is the port is not forwarded. If you accessing using home network, simply forward the port from the router. Public network currently has no solution yet

Q : What is the different between P1, P1i and P1c
A : There's no such thing as P1. P1i is what we're getting, the i suffix stands for international. P1c is specifically meant for china, with 3G radio taken off due to licensing problem

Q : What is the difference between P1i and W960?
A : They basically share the same hardware structure except W960i comes with 8GB flash memory, memory card slot taken off, pre-installed with Walkman 3.0 software and using normal 0-9 keypad while P1i has QWERTY keyboard, M2 slot and has business card scanner.

Q : Nokia N95 (Symbian S60) versus SE P1i (UIQ3) versus WM6 device, who wins?
A : a very subjective issue and each of them have their own strength. Suggest that visit a proper Nokia/SE/HTC retail store and test them by urself. N95 has weaker battery life (not sure about 8GB version though), no touch screen while P1i is a lil hard to get used to for first timer and slower response time while WM6 is known for strong software library and being expensive

Q : Is there any way i can turn my p1i into W960i?
A : the current answer is, no. but there are people working on it, at the mean time, you can have the Walkman 2.0 installed with some hacks. refer below.

Q : Does P1i support GPS?
A : P1i doesn't have GPS antenna and therefore have to rely on external hardware. Currently the only which has compatible hardware and malaysia map is Garmin and SONY Ericsson HGE-100 GPS adapter. There are other compatible GPS out there but i cant seems to find one with Malaysia map.
- Use Garmin Mobile10x with MalSingmaps, free updated maps by the locals.

Q : Can my P1i play .xxx files?
A : Use the M3 encoder found in the software links post and convert them to W950 or UIQ3 safe in the dropdown box.

Q : The media player sucks man! Can I have something better?
A : Good for you, came in time for two full guides. Read the Guides section for conversion to Walkman 2.0 (W950) or Walkman 3.0 (W960)

Q : The Wi-Fi doesn't seem to connect! / Connected but can't find server!
A : Ask Atih.. And download OperaMini, the built in one didn't get the DNS server correctly for me the first time.
QUOTE(atih007 @ Apr 19 2008, 09:26 AM)
i think u're not really connected although it says connected. if u are using the latest firmware, u have to group ur internet account accordingly. for example Celcom 3G, Maxis 3G and Digi Wap into default Internet group account. for Hotspot, DefaultWifiAccount, etc into a new internet group account..Wifi. make sure u set the Wifi as default group group account when u want to use wifi.

carbon14, a little bit suggestion.

Don't directly link one attachment or file to the previous one.
Its better if you reattach or reupload it.

You can use www.fileden.com.
Its something like Photobucket, but it allow you to upload your own files in your own account.
I've been using this website since 2 years ago, and my files that I've uploaded still under the same link.

Gotcha, thanks smile.gif

Another thing, I think i want to spoiler the members list. It creates an unneeded length in the beginning of the thread. Any comments?
Found a bug on the Walkman3.0 mod. If the player is still currently playing songs, Task Manager can't end it on my phone it seems. Have to stop it and end. hmm.gif

Dude no need confuse. Singapore CDA has the latest R9K009 firmware. So if you want Singapore firmware, you can go ahead and flash Singapore CDA and get the latest firmware. Some regions like lets say Afganistan or Ubjekistan (hypothetical), SE haven't released the latest firmware for that region so they have to flash to GW1 or GW2 to get the latest.

Heres some tip for you in flashing using SEUS. If you have a slow internet connection, you might have a long time downloading the update from SEUS. The thing here is SEUS will download the update then flash your phone, updating the firmware.

What I mentioned in the previous post is that you use XS++ to flash your/ or rather CHANGE your CDA or SG/95 (if you haven't got it). Then use SEUS to update the firmware. Because if you have a Ubekjistan CDA, you can't get the latest firmware. (Again hypothetical)

Notes:

1. Lowyat Logo can be removed due to high cost, it needs embroidering to be nice, if normal its also high cost due to colors.
2. For people who love white, I'm sorry the Inner Glow effect only works well with a contrasting background rclxub.gif
3. If theres a cartoon P1i picture, I'm still waiting for it blush.gif it will be ontop of the curved lines to the right of the shirt.

My steps will be:

1) Flash from GW to SG verison
2) Update firmware using SEUS
3) Mod to Walkman 3.0

So, it will only download update to my pc, and after that SEUS baru update firmware in my phone?

Will there be any chinese input after flashing from GW to SG firmware using XS++ without updating using SEUS?
*
Singapore has a chinese input , Squall_kay is using one. Confirm with him smile.gif Yes SEUS will download the update first.If you just change the CDA you wont have the firmware for that CDA, you must go through SEUS to have the firmware for the CDA you flashed.

QUOTE(aprisis @ Apr 27 2008, 08:23 PM)
i think its not a necessity to hv a lyn logo there.
i prefer the white 1 but the black 1 has that beautiful..glow. but is the effect still there when printed on the shirt?
*
Well T shirt printing (from my knowledge) uses an image then printed on top of the shirt by a sticky substance (rubber?) then it awaits to be dried. So theoretically it should be doable. I created a high res CMYK 16bit image of the curved lines, should be able to do it.

QUOTE(n0name8886 @ Apr 27 2008, 11:09 PM)
i need help from all p1i experts here. just bought a p1 last week. i can't determine the firmware version of my phone. i notice that the latest version of the firmware has focus bracket for the camera rite? where can i get the firmware?my phone status shows this:

hw come my phone has two cda?
can anyone here enlighten me?
btw i still don have the focus bracket in camera... please
*
Not only your phone has two CDAs , it appears to have three firmwares on the phone as well (besides I think the word CCPU refers to the P1i ressurrection firmware that is used when a P1i is bricked or locked due to failed flashing,someone please confirm this). Someone should have tampered your phone and flashed multiple CDAs like mine. I have Austria and Indonesia CDA tongue.gif
If your phone doesn't have the focus bracket, I think you might have to flash your phone again. Better take it back to the shop and ask them to do for you. Since theres 3 firmwares and 2 CDAs, it might be better for them to do it.

Read my GDesk guide up on post 1.

And regarding the "send back to AP shop for flashing", I suggested that because if they can do it for you (or you have a friend there) it is better. Better safe than sorry if you bricked (blocked,firmware flashing failed can't start) your phone. But if you got the courage go ahead and try it.

Tell us more about what steps did you take. Go to Device Manager on Control Panel and check if your USB flash drivers are installed properly (check if any exclamation mark on the devices) and all the necessary drivers installed for the PC Suite and SEUS to work properly.

Oh did I tell you I got Indonesia and Austria CDA but I can still input Chinese? laugh.gif

I don't believe fonts is the problem or anything in the memory card is related.

If you have all drivers installed and none missed should be workable. And Shuffler might be right about the seus technical problem

A recent post at esato.com shows a user is having problems too. So its probably our leng lui SE

Yeah all carbon lifeforms have trace amounts of carbon-14 inside them. Due to its radioactive nature, we can predict the age of the item by calculating the half life of the radiation given off by carbon-14. sweat.gif
Your welcome,thanks for using the guide. Walkman feature? Well some users reported louder ringtone volume,but the most useful feature is the excellent music management that comes with Walkman3.0. You can now search tracks and generate autoplaylists, no more poking profusely at the screen just to find that particular track.

I stopped there. What went wrong? Is there any program that I didn't open or miss it? I am using Vista.

Well, lets hope its a SE problem because the way I see that you guys have done everything right,from USB drivers to reinstalling SEUS. Here is some users that have problem updating with SEUS, and now their phone is locked (bricked). Might be a separate case but I'll mention it nevertheless.

Do you think get a Chinese version set (input and display) OK or not?

Will it slow down the phone a lot? smile.gif

I'm using one that goes with Chinese input,everything is fine (well smooth for me). Except that the Walkman 3.0 mod is kind of sluggish sometimes, it ain't perfect though nod.gif

Guys,
I just got a new batch of 08' manufactured P1 phone with R9K009 F.W  and it seems that the Camera Green Tint issue is still there. I dont think S.E ever rectified this problem. But I read from this forum that some of the users here dont face this problem. Does anyone here know how to eliminate the green tint? This is a great upgrade from my previous P990i but the green tint is really annoying me. Anybody got a solution to this?
*
No, SE never rectified this problem. When buying it is advisable to check the camera shots of the unit before proceeding to buy. There was a case that one user went to give his phone to SE Service Center and changed the camera module where afterwards his camera had no more trace of green tint.
Post some sample pictures to let us see how severe yours is.

QUOTE(djpianz @ Apr 30 2008, 09:47 PM)
U can find that on the SEUS website, it's recommended that battery level should at least 50%, i think that to play safe, let it charge yours for at least 60% ++ before proceed updating. It's your call, good luck.

It is recommended you have a fully charged phone before firmware upgrades.

Has anyone found any solutions on how to mod the w3.0 into p1i using vista? I still not able to install the w3.0 yet. All my pcs are in Vista.  blush.gif

I never used Vista before but is there someway you can, "run the application under a XP environment" ? I heard a user here said something about visualizing XP. rclxub.gif

do i need to upgrade to 2.0 first before proceeding to 3.0?

anyway, just realised my set has the green tint issue.  sad.gif any way to solve it? i'm already on the latest R9K009.

by the way, any of your P1i is from china? mine the wordings on the battery & the sticker behind phone are all in chinese.  blink.gif

No, both are separate upgrades. You don't need 2.0 to use 3.0. But if you previously installed any Walkman 2.0 mod you will need to remove it first. My P1i is clearly written MADE IN CHINA. blush.gif Very sad to hear your phone has the problem,hope SE comes up with a solution. Well hope so they do yawn.gif

hi, i'm considerin AP set of this fon... So i hv few ques here...
1) r u guys bought AP sets or Ori ? i mean mostly... .
2) do u all think it suits gal?
3) wat's de cons for tis fon til need back to service centre?
4)can i assume the chinese character input solved if i buy frm Renee since she sellin P1i is free upgrade to chinese language de?
Sry for askin so many ques coz  this is de 1 st time i gonna buy SE phon... i'm a nokia user~~~ Thanks.

1. AP costs around 10** and Original is around RM600 more. Which one do you prefer? If your buying AP please check properly the package and also the phone itself for signs of green tint. I brought AP.

2. If you are a girl, I think this is rather a bulky phone for you, but nevertheless if you are a tech-savvy person you might like this phone for its features. Wifi-b, great organizer, AD2P, decent camera.

3. One is either you bricked (lock) your phone, unluckily with SEUS but can still be saved by using a method and the second one if you are having a problem with the camera (green tint) till your camera images are severely deteriorated. Have to send back to service center (If you want to)

4. Chinese character input can be easily solved too by flashing Singapore firmware.

5. And please do remember this is a QWERTY keyboard with "rocker" keys. It is the same type as your desktop keyboard and may take time to adjust to.

ROCKER Keyboard explained :

[Q | W] [E | R] , each button is separated into two parts each side for pressing one alphabet.

Tell her even if its a high end camera phone with Xenon flash is not perfect. Isn't clubs for ... doing something else rather than taking photos? tongue.gif
Well its undeniable that P1i HAS VERY POOR night shooting capabilities. Seriously taking pictures at night in low lighting just makes you cry.gif

my walkman 3.0 keep showing the same album picture although it plays another song. why eh?

my crystal case broken alredi.. takde kualiti langsung. i'm thinking to skin it with clear plastic. wat bothers me is the keypad. will the plastic suppress it? huhu

Here is how I do it, worked for the original Media Player and now works too for Walkman 3.0

1. I edit those mp3 ID tags with Media Monkey. Very cool program, you can let it auto tag using the internet and download the album art. http://www.mediamonkey.com/

2. Then I sync my P1i using that program, or you can do it yourself. But I arrange my folders in this way
D:\Music\Mp3s\<Artist Name or album name>.
Meaning each of my songs are put in their respective folders.

3. Then I put the album art into the folder, renaming the album art as folder.jpg. But be sure to tag the Mp3 file first.

Hope it works for ya

Oh btw, new guide for changing fonts added. Next guide to be added is Volume Hack cool.gif

Thats handwriting recognition, writing on the area above the triangle will generate you numbers. The area below it are alphabets.

Dude why trade such a nice smartphone for that? If you want to trade,consider trading and plus top up actually to G900 (Upcoming Sony Ericsson). If you can live without wifi then you shouldn't have went for P1i in the first place after all.

Is this normal because I don't have GPS Receiver or something wrong i've did?

As now i just want to use the browse map feature without attach to GPS Receiver.
