here is what I liked about this C702...

1) Fast response
2) cool animation (A200 platform)
3) Acceptable camera (is cybershot 3.2mp)
4) Cool design..black/titanium finish
5) splash/dust resistance
6) good key pad
7) Large icons...
8) Large lcd screen rclxms.gif
9) reasonable pricing for a phone

other than there pretty much a normal 3.2 phone... biggrin.gif

like this phone very much...have tried the latest G700/G900/C902....P1i
but ended up getting this phone...

phone left idle ??

my previous K810i went left idle...at the black screen..display the clock and als ENVELOPE sign
if received unread sms message ! biggrin.gif

i experienced the following problem :-
1) menu a bit laggy especially on the "contacts"
2) Auto showdown in the afternoon (twice)


any idea where to update to the latest firmware in the klang valley (if possible
near to subang/PJ/Puchong/sunway/damansara area)... ?

After the update, still facing the same problem or not? tq

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 smile.gif

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)

what firmware built inside your phone?

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 smile.gif

i bought my originial C702 a few months ago,...got auto-shut down problem...
sent to ArmCorp mall SC to update the software...but still facing same problem...
then someone suggested that the problem may be due to my Celcom 3G sim card
problems.... so i switched...and used my Digi sim card on it...so far no auto-shut down...

but don't know it is the phone problem or the sim card !!! otherwise is a good phone!
