QUOTE(blurjoey @ Feb 15 2009, 02:43 PM) I think the C905's current firmware is having this lag issues. When I open Contacts in Message it will lag. Also the screen will turn dark when I'm using and it will hang in the Menu screen for a long while. Then after it auto restarted itself then it will be fine. This is what I'm having with my C905 at the moment. So hopefully this is fixed in the major firmware release.
The issue with mine was that there was no lagging whatsover since the first day that I got it, and it just kinda happened over night! And I didn't install anything new on it. Went down to a SE center at Cineleisure today just to ask them about it. One of the guys there recommended I do a master reset. Did that and it works like a charm, no more lagging.

Just updated my C905 to version 1208-0527-R1DA032 090204  Noticed Wayfinder Navigator 8 (but in the application folder still says 7), Tracker (I think Dilbert was looking for this), Youtube and Smile Shutter. The timezone settings have change from choosing +8 timezone to choosing the city you're in. Will be testing it out more to see the lagging is still there or not. Thank you kha7577 for letting us know. Remember to backup everything first before updating. All my contacts, calendar, games, applications, 3G settings, etc all gone! Lucky I got back up This post has been edited by blurjoey: Feb 16 2009, 08:55 AM

Had some problems with the driver as I'm using Vista 64bit but ok now. The C905 cannot detect new version using the update on the phone. Try using SEUS to update.

Heard after update will follow the language of the region that phone is from or something like that. Wait and see. I wonder if SE centers can update AP or not

I wonder if SE centers can update AP or not  SE centers can update the firmwares on the AP sets but they will charge you. Probably around Rm40.

QUOTE(raptar_eric @ Feb 15 2009, 11:21 AM) Something is wrong with TrekBuddy. Yesterday noon, called a friend, after he put down the phone, my phone go nuts, damn laggy. When I tried scout around whats the prob, i pressed on the Media button, the photos showing: 12,000+ photos.... Then I tried restarting the phone, damn laggy as well, and when i click into media, it took around 10 minutes for it to update the content... After spending around 2 hours checking, found out that it's TrekBuddy's maps that is causing it. Got frustrated, deleted it. Use the tar version of the atlas (run maketar.bat to create it). Tarred atlas would pack all those png tiles into a few tar archives files, and as result, the atlas tiles won't be shown in the Media that causes the slow down. Other benefits of using tarred atlas are space saving because it reduces wasted cluster problem in FAT filesystem caused by the numerous small size png files, and much faster transfer to the memory card as well.

Have to use with the data cable. Very quick backup and restore. Apps and games that you have installed have to be re-download and install again. 2G/3G/MMS settings you have to get back from your provider. Here you go: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/so...905?lc=en&cc=myYou can also backup your contacts using your C905 to your M2. In your C905's Contacts > Options > More > Advanced > Back up to m.card. To restore is the same except you use Restore from m.card. Inside each phone there is code in the firmware or ROM that tells which region the phone is from. Something like IC for phones. You got SEUS then you need the data cable which came with your phone. Run SEUS and follow the instruction on SEUS. Very easy as all step-by-step. This post has been edited by blurjoey: Feb 16 2009, 09:59 AM

Anyone tried the smile shutter with multiple people? I think can only work with 1 person only  Added on February 16, 2009, 1:59 pmQUOTE(lim47 @ Feb 16 2009, 01:48 PM) Where u go to update it ? SE service center ? Free ? All free for all original SE phones if the warranty still valid for update in SE Service Center. If expired then have to pay.
