I tried reupdating the firmware via SUES (because of the wifi prob) but it keeps getting stuck at 99% sleep.gif

Err... were you able to restart the phone despite quitting the SEUS? If it cannot, I'm afraid the only way is to send it in for flashing or using DaVinci flashing tool (chargeable). You won't be able to use SEUS to continue flashing because the finalization phase is screwed and SEUS's server is unable to certify the flashing (since it can't detect your EROM details). Only way is to flash from alternative bootloader (EROM approach) which is only accessible by SE or 3rd party flashing tools.

I had the same problem... always stuck at 98%. Some forums indicate it is a hardware failure. Some people say SEUS sucks since there's no 2nd attempt. Once fail, thats it. You have to send it in. If you're using AP set, I believe AP companies have the proper tools too.

Hope this helps.

This is my 2nd time updating. the first time worked perfectly.

The reason why im updating again is because I have problems with the wifi after updating. It got stucked at 99% then I force closed it before disconnecting the usb cable. Then it can be switched on.

Now u make me worried to try again :|

about the WIFI issue, yesterday went to the BBQ Chicken at seri hatamas, full bar and the speed was about 100kbps, which takes less than 10 seconds to download a 1MB content..

so looks like this phone's wifi capability is okay at those places with a good AP
*
we seem to lepak in the same places - jayaone, hartamas, lol

Will try out the wifi at places with good wireless then

Ok i'm really impress with the photo shots.My question is do the pics look as good on the phone when printed out??

Ive not printed out photos from this phone but i've printed out photos from SE k800i Cybershot. its a 3.2MP phone and the quality is quite nice.

QUOTE(ian90 @ Mar 4 2009, 06:59 PM)
really? if im not mistaken the current extension is memang png...
hm... my media palyer there now got 18k+ pictures. haha. nvm la, not that laggy till unbearable. but let me kno if you suddenly not lazy and found the solution. XD

yea, i hate the fact that they include everything in the Media > Photos


QUOTE(mADmAN @ Mar 4 2009, 08:36 PM)
wat can i say....

im old school laugh.gif
anyway...i unrar the klang valley maps into a folder just now...

but when i try to transfer the folder into my phone via usb (in phone mode, media transfer mode, mass storage mode) the thing kinda stopped halfway... tried quite a few times...

then when i wanted to delete the folder, a popup came saying the action cancelled coz the device was disconnected or stopped etc etc...damn odd...

think mebbe the phone or the card cant take too many files transfered into it at once...

will try removing the m2 and shove it in the USB reader that came with the phone and transfer again


Added on March 4, 2009, 8:37 pmoh yeah...how do u use skype with this phone??

ive never used skype at all..not even PC..so really dunno anything about that software

basically when connected to the net can have free calls right?
*
Use the M2 USB Adaptor. Takkan la u want to keep pressing "Accept?" Its a whole lot of files so its not suprising that it hang

Skype is for voip. you make calls using it. Personally i've not use it, but the concept is, lets say u're connected on wifi, you should be able to use your phone to login to skype and call ur other skype friends. so basically its free.

bluejoey, we should try it out la one day

im pretty sure that a few ppl repeated that there is NO SMS CONVERSATION function in the newest update so far.

Not sure, i've successfully added a few pics (like LRT/Bus route) to my phone. But not till 380. I usually take phones frm my Hp to my pc, not the other way around

mayb its coz im used to bigger phones (using a k800i previously). Im quite okay with typing smses with one hand. Tho i'd have to admit that its a tad too wide.

Anyway, sending my phone for repair tomorrow at Damansara. Cant hear people while calling. hope i get it back fast *crosses fingers*

Hi, C702 user here. Singgah thread big brother C905 sekejap.

C905 also got geotagging rite?
geotagging can use for free.
Set assisted GPS to never, then start geotagwhoring. Remember to set Add location too in camera settings.
Not to forget that my favourites also can set without using money/prepaid, simply turn on Status info (assisted gps: never), go to My Favourites, and add and save current location.
Well, but in case u all know already, it's okay then.  rclxms.gif

ooo thanks for this tip. I'll try it out once i get my phone back from the shop

Can i go to the SE centre and change the speaker?I am willing to pay extra.The volume is too soft..cant hear it at all in noisy environment..unlike my old nokia phone,very loud.Even deaf also can hear.

mayb u should just go change it. I think the sound is quite loud, not sure about other ppl tho

QUOTE(Archronicles @ Apr 18 2009, 11:01 PM)
Nice, thanks for the insight. Would go find a good camdriver later. Any recommendation?

Sigh, went over to this thread and read bout C905's cam being underestimated sad.gif
They obviously haven't seen this   brows.gif
*
bro, some of maistora's photos looks like its edited to look like HDR photos (correct me if im wrong). Not a really good indication of how good the camera is

QUOTE(Archronicles @ Apr 19 2009, 02:57 PM)
On a side note, a test shot with the original camdriver. Not what I'm expecting. Auto mode, Macro, No Flash and Fluorescent lighting. Man, I'm one lousy photographer. Any tips on good macro shots?  notworthy.gif
*
One method that i always use with SE is to focus on text that is the same distance as the object. Eg: put a paper with text in front of the object, focus it, then take the paper away and snap. depends on what u want to focus la actually

one sample macro shot (but i didnt use the text paper trick). just resized & a bit of spot correction

Btw, i just downloaded this application (its free), called FileLock which hides your files by adding a .lck to the extension of the file. so it cant be opened unless you open the app, enter the password and then unlock it. Best part, it also hides files from the Media menu

usable for other SE/java enabled phones also. recommended by me thumbup.gif
