i got big problem with my original C702...today it was automatically "OFF" a few times..
and the contacts menu was lagging....

will try bring to the sunway service centre...tommorow...hopefully i don't need to leave
my phone there for repair !

in this case P1i is good choice for you

wow...the firmware so fast given problem? do update here after repair from SC

For what I notice so far, new handphone will always have some phone issue like hang, slow in response, auto restart or shutdown and so on. Most probably can be solve after you update it to the latest firmware. But of course the first few version of firmware is only mean to solve the critical issue so those very minor issue will be solve by the following firmware.

If you encounter any of the problem for SE C702, my suggestion is backup all your phone data. Example phone book contact, photo, mp3, movie clip and so on to your computer before you do a factory reset to your C702. After that format your external memory card as well. because we need to make sure everything is clean & clear and is totally back to default setting.

After that install the sony ericsson firmware update from sony ericsson official website. Run the update program and follow the instruction from the wizard and update your phone to the latest firmware.

Hopefully by doing this it can help you to minimize or reduce the new phone issue for C702. This is what I did for my C702 and it helps to solve the phone auto restart problem when you press to certain function or do several task at the same time. And also help to solve the mp3 player stop playing issue which is seems to be intermitent.

Hope it helps. Cheers

How to back-up the data such as phone book to my computer ?

(will bring it to sony service centre to update the software....i was told by the SC that the problem of auto shut down may also due to
the sim card problem...they told me that some sim cards need to be changed...to resolve the problem)

by SE PCsuite or MyPhoneExplorer (backup contacts/sms)

Got the phone today as a gift. anyone try it out with the GPS yet?

as far as i known, GPS did not need to pay for it? y this need GPRS r?

so strange.

Can i install route66, or mapking on it? or i use an external GPS through BT and it should be free of charge right?

tq

thanks a lot.... have back-up my phone book.... and updated to the latest software at ericservce Armcorp Mall...

no xenon flash and red eye reduction functionality?
gps is no big deal.

i'd rather stick with k810i.

Yes, it required some GPRS data packets to help up since its "Assisted-GPS.

if there is any java J2ME route66 version yes. so far only Google Maps & Way Finder available at J2ME platform as i know.

yes you can use external GPS via BT.



how long they took to flash your phone FW?

the phone design not focus at camera

2 hours...

but now still got auto shut down problem...but less frequent !

Love my phone! but the processor memang cannot handle the A200 system ler. Too lag. Hope newer revesions will be more efficient

btw, what's the max M2 size that we can use? according to SE, is only up to 4GB

really fed up...shut down a few times today... any other C702 user experience the same problem ?
or maybe I got a lemon ?

will bring it to sony Service centre to check....

SE phone's processor too slow for newer platform

what firmware built inside your phone?

I got a Holux 236b BT GPS receiver, could i use it on the 702? if yes wat map should i install? would it still charge me for data usage?

tq

really need to figure this phone out.

my software 1202-6821 R3CA037 080712

i was told be one service centre guy that this problem may be due to my sim card....

currently i am using a 3G Celcom SIM card...the technician told me, it could be due
to the sim card...and ask me to try the phone with another SIM card...

i just put in my Digi (normal, non-3G) to see if it still auto-shut down

try install google maps. bluetooth both, run google maps. data charge base on your service provider, normally 10KB=Rm0.10

sim card cause the problem? seem like the only way to find out is from your usage/feedback...

can se fon runs on bluetooth receiver oso?
and just fyi, if u use ur service provider to surf google map, be prepared for a large sum in dling map, no joke, i used google maps and just from my place ( kl sentral) and surf around to pj ss2, and 1u, abit of cheras, the data transmission cost more than few mbs~
10kb = 10 cents
1 mb = rm 10
btw, i run it using internet via bluetooth, so 0 charges =)

anyone know the current price for C702 ? ap and ori. fyi im form penang . thx =)

A shop in Gurney Plaza was selling for RM1299 includes one 1GB memory card. That was 2 weeks ago, dunno if the price has drop or not.
