strange that you have updated and it still hangs. try update again sometimes there is some sort of glitch. my phone hangs only once a month. even less sometimes. hmm.gif CDA is very hard thing to change. the guide is on the front page if you are brave enough hahahaha. its from masterzombie.

did you do the calibration again? if it cannot calibrate then it just means you got a messed up touch screen. take back to shop.
to calibrate go... settings>general>setup wizard.
really. still hangs after update? what are you doing at the time of hanging. smsing or gaming or what?
this could be a memory issue. your phone is new and got nothing inside right?
*
i din do anything. i just left it n it restart itself. sometimes hang itself. yes it's new n nothing inside.

i have just change the cda to Generic World 1. If you would like to change it, here is the guide line: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=176580. The one posted on the first page is not applicable for G900.

A lot of people including me have successfully done it, and pmed me too. It certainly is applicable. Maybe you had the short CDA string, which I didn't address in the guide?

i see. yes i have the short cda string.

in wi-fi zone g900 can call for free with fring????? pls make this clear anyone who had tried it. happy.gif

i just sold my n73 today. still considering whether should i get the G900. wats the running price for a AP set? say like mayb telstra warranty. jackoz complain it hang while the phone is still new make me again have more doubts lol. and if it's AP set, bring back to shop, they prolly say to u, 'told u it will hang and jam alot. we warned you. cant do much'  dry.gif quite sure they said that as i said earlier shopkeepers tell me this phone hangs alot and tell us not to bring back the phone to them if so. sad.gif if touchscreen problem im sure they will accept the faultiness.

i remember last time some1 told me before, if firmware update, warranty void. i used to use nokia phones and for nokia phones, i have heard of this before. every1 pls check before acting.

if you really like this phone, try to get ori set. IMHO, AP set has a higher possibility to be faulty. mine is a AP set.

Hey guys & girls. its been a while since i posted on this site. but i thought i might drop by and what not. also i had a dream and in the dream i had my phone in my pocket and i was in the water (went white water rafting this weekend..i think its related) so i freaked out and what do you know its working just fine. i was so happy in the dream since my phone worked haha. too bad G900 is not a real waterproof phone.
heheh. good to know. i used it a few times. but sometimes writing a message ends up sending to inbox so many times because it doesnt fully load the next screen or something liek that so i press send again and again haahhahah.  i stopped using opera mini already. i think the stock one is pretty good.
well its probably just when you bought it probably. when you update the phone using SUES it wont change the region. i dont think at least. hmm.gif
good to know its working well. how long did it all take?
send it back for warranty at sony ericsson since you say its thorus set. like jackoz above. and should be good.

panda man, it took me 2 months for it to be fixed. i bug them every week.

DAMN. thats so long. looks like those guys are slacking. haha. i guess the main reason is because there might not be enough G900's so maybe they dont have the parts. hmm.gif

panda man, yup i guess so... btw, is there any good software u recommend?

any aftermarket or better or latest operating system for G900 currently? I find that this phone really laggy and freezes at times.... I forgot where i read somewhere that they have aftermarket softwares which is far better....

Btw, any one of you noticed that G900 camera depending on the background ur taking, especially white background, it always have this "yellowish" patch in the middle. that means for example, u take a photo of a white surface. now the photo should turn out all white rite? Ok, but using this phone, it turns out the middle of the photo is slightly yellowish than the rest. why is this???
*
i never experience any yellowish stuff. but i admit that the pic is really bad when u turn on flash.
