Lately hardly you can see new applications for symbian. And the few new apps are not really very interesting and impressive. Everyday you can see dozens applications for IPhone or android even windows mobile but not for symbian (still less for symbian v5, a dead platform, a sandwich between 3rd and the new symbian -from what I've read and see a no very impressive interface). And now well established symbian forums and webpages opening to other platforms due to lack of interest and new applications about symbian (example:symbian planet.net now has changed to mobileitalia.net with more information about IPhone, android or n900 then symbian).
Is possible SE Symbian based Smart Phone like Satio, Vivaz and Vivaz Pro change the system from Symbian^1 to Android or Symbian^3 OFFICIAL?Symbian is open source and Android also open source.And hardware requirement for all SE Symbian based Smart Phone I think no problem to use Android and Symbian^3 system.
Sony Ericsson people I am waiting patiently for the upgrade to this OS, what really is the real situation, is there any possibility? If there is no more plan for you to upgrade this OS to symbian 3, I am willing to pay an extra cost for that OS so that I can maximize my phone usage, and applications we are longing to try. If there is any possibility and I do hope so, please tell us,(your avid and loyal customers) so that we can be proud once again having a good phone with good features, unlike now this brand is not gaining popularity because of OS.
Seems to me that the upgrade of the system is not an option of Sony engineering, because it asks Nokia (at the end, OS is their property).Sony-Ericsson probably think (like all big firms),that today's consumer society should be animate with new, new, new and always new gadgets.All praise to brands, that provide full support for their devices regardless of their age.Who knows, maybe some engineer from Sony-Ericsson gone astray in this forum, read something, and think that million people read this (million people - 1$ - one million dollars),million unhappy users - low support - problems to you "mister Sony-Ericsson").
Many people have purchased the satio, vivaz n vivaz pro and these phones are quite expensive phones too. what courtesy and responsibility does sony ericsson plan to show to these customers in the near future ? will there be any software updates for these 3 devices in the future or not ? because i believe there is a need to improve its touchscreen features in the phone. i need the touchscreen feature of the symbian os on these phones to be as good as the touchscreen feature of the media menu on these phones.... i m sure u know wat i mean.... plus the auto rotate feature on the satio is very slow ( takes about 1.5 seconds sometimes). is sony ericsson dumping its satio, vivaz n vivaz pro customers too along with dumping symbian? the answer and response to this question will reflect the fidelity of sony ericsson towards its customers. fidelity of of a customer towards his merchant goes the other way too u know.... i d like to see if sony ericsson does have an answer to this question.
SATIO is really the best smartphone, with powerful CPU strong GPU and style design.
But this ultimate smartphone why got so many people complain?
Because the poor system: NOKIA SYMBIAN^1
Why again, I got 2 reason here.
1. Symbian only got best performance on NOKIA own smartphone but not all other brand phone. (not just Sony Ericsson, SAMSUNG also)
*Is this Sony Ericsson and Samsung problem? No, is NOKIA did not full "OPEN" the source of Symbian.
2. Symbian make all 3rd party software fully compatible with NOKIA own smartphone but not all other brand phone. (everybody will know, the CALL RECORDING software ONLY can use on NOKIA base Symbian phone)
*Same, NOKIA did not full "OPEN" the source of Symbian.
My main point why want to change the SYMBIAN to Android is because SYMBIAN only best best 3rd party software compatible in NOKIA smartphone.
Is Android really best compatible in all 3rd party software, I just can say no the most, but it will more and more and more that NOKIA Symbian.
Why I know, because in my sister hand got one Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 mini. Same 600MHz CPU but X10 mini performance really nice.
Is Sony Ericsson problem, hardware problem, software problem? NO, IS NOKIA SYMBIAN PROBLEM.
That why now Sony Ericsson all phone now base on Adroid.
Everybody got MORE REASON?
1. If really SATIO or other SonyEricsson Symbian base smartphone change to Android, SonyEricsson can cut off the Timescape™ and Mediascape, I know this two feature is symbol of XPERIA X10.
2. I love the brand (SonyEricsson), I love the hardware (SATIO), I also love the system (Symbian) but the system make me disappointed (best compatible 3rd party software only in NOKIA smartphone).
i am wondering is sony ericsson's java platform, created by symbian or is it just a java on it's own. do you understand wat i am asking? iam just wondering because ive always wanted to know
I have bought Vivaz one week ago and it was such a good cell phone to have with marvelous features compared to its price and size. My pain is the OS which is Symbian S60 5th Edition which I hate more than the darkest hour. I wish if Sony Ericsson could change the OS from Symbian S60 to Android what is the possibility to such so? is it need some hardware to be change? I feel pity for my Vivaz as it works using Symbian while my brother has Xperia X10 Minipro works with Android 1.6.
I'm trying to download a new software update for my W760a, because it tells me it cannot add anymore contacts and I can't recieve or send texts/ phone calls. When I try to go to the software updates on the W760a hompepage, it loads a blank page. It just says on the tab "Sony Ericsson Support Phones Topic Updateserviceapplication W760a", and loads a blank page. Please help me with this problem as I wish to continue using my new phone.
I thought I may start an Elm/Hazel thread for discussion as it seems many of you have one of the two phones now. I wanted to do this to discuss any problems with things like firmware & issues & other stuff rather than discussing this in the picture thread.

I think the fone fell, cause it was dusty or maybe its because it was charged using the USB cable. What can be the possible cause of the phone not to turn ON?
As the title implies, I need to ask if there are varying kinds of Sony Ericsson LCD screens for the G705 or if there are variations in models made. Nearly 6 months ago I bought a Sony Ericsson G705 phone off eBay that only needed a new LCD screen. Well I purchased a screen off eBaand was good to go except for a few minor issues... 1.) The LCD screen had a thicker screen/border than the original so I had to mod it by taking off the white border around it. 2.) The ribbon that connects the LCD screen to the G705's keypad wasn't aligned correctly causing it to disconnect from the keypad every so often. This too I had to fix by sticking some paper underneath where the connector sits. It worked after the modifications but the end result is the keypad was raised causing issues where pushing the up key would force it to push the left key too. Unfortunately after awhile the screen stopped working likely due to the fact the different layers were separating. I gave in and bought a new screen from an online dealer elsewhere just to get scammed in the end with a broken LCD screen which they refused to replace claiming I cracked it. So now I've purchased a new screen of eBay yet this one has issues too, it's thinner than the first one I got, but has the same problem where the ribbon doesn't appear to be aligned correctly either. This time however, I get some ugly dead pixels in the lower left corner of the screen and the rest is completely jumbled with white lines going through it. I've already contacted the seller for an exchange and am about to lose all hope getting this phone working. Anyway, back to the topic. Do the screens in the G705 vary from region to region or between versions? When I got it I found the phone was from Hong Kong (firmware was HK anyway.) though the manual and included paperwork suggested it was from France. The screens I have purchased seemed to have varying differences between either the thickness is too wide, the ribbon doesn't fit the correct position, or some other incompatibility. I bought this phone.
Please help someone I have encountered my first Elm problem. Over night I charged the phone & this morning it's still charging & will not pass 66% charge. I took battery out put back in & charged with the phone off for another hour. When switched back on it was now @ 65% This was after another hour of charging with the phone off. I then did a master reset of all not just settings. Charged it up again for a further hour & still the charge is not increasing. Please help what the hell is going on? This battery has a mind of it's own. I have a feeling something has occured since I kept plugging & unplugging quite often the phone in & out of my pc. So maybe it's caused this I do not know. Please any suggestions this phone has been reliable upto this piont Esato Awards King of Garbage 2009/2010 & Best Debater 2009 x10 & Nokia N8
BATTERY CANNOT BE CHARGE PLEASE USE A SONY ERICSSON BATTERY. after flashing my phone. i got this error, i've tried changing my battery but the error is still there. my phone is K850i
Sir/Madam, I have a Nokia Asha 311 handset. I want to know that can I change Operating system of Nokia Asha 311 . I want to switch over from Nokia OS to Symbian/symbian belle?
I downloaded the Symbian Anna and honestly, it's not as great as it's been made out to be!Now I want to revert to the earlier S3 version and am unable to do so! What can be done to regain the old version of the OS?
I tried a Restore to factory settings from the phone, but it just goes back to factory settings with ANNA, how do I change the OS back to the earlier one?
My Sony Vivaz was working properly and then suddendly applications stopped working. Then I noticed the applications I had installed in the memory card are not longer displayed on the screen, and when I try to take a photo it says there is no memory card and that they will be stored in the phone's memory. Additionally, when I try to reinstall the applications I always get the message File error. What is happening to my phone? How can I fix all these problems?
I bought a new sony spiro this weekend and so far has been a pain in the back. It resets when I try to access the camera, sometines it stops playing music at random times, or it simply stops reading my micro sd. Today I installed the newest firmware, but still the same problem continues.
I have only had this phone for about 1 1/2 years and for the last few weeks it keeps dying no matter how long I charge it. It only last for about 10 minutes after disconnected from charger and then it cuts off. A red light blinks, but never indicates that the batter is low and as soon as it is plugged in and cuts back on it indicates that the battery is fully charged.
I have a Torch 9800 phone. Lately I have had issues with the phone dieing after a few seconds of looking at an app or taking a picture. My battery reads 98% and after looking at the app the phone shuts down in seconds as there is not enough power. Some times I can reboot the phone and it will show a high percentage then dies again. I have re installed the OS a few times now and have not added any apps. Is this the battery or the phone having issues? I do not want to waist money on a new battery if it is the phone because for the most part it keeps a charge only not when your using it for more than a phone.
Wondering if anyone has had similar problem.My battery for x10 has now started to last only 4hours - even during the night when its not in use.I already have brightness down as low as possible and have followed all the other guidelines to utilise battery life. The strange thing is that I have not changed anything on the phone recently and the battery just started dying!!!!! Extremely frustrated as I also seem to be receiving texts a lot later than they were sent even though I have full network coverage. I have had the phone since October 2010.
So about a month ago, I take my iPhone 4S to the Apple Store because the battery is dying in like 4 hours and it is getting real hot. They replace it with a new iPhone 4S. Today I take that phone to the Apple Store because it is getting hot and battery dies in like 4 hours. They give me a new one to replace. 2 hours later my new iPhone is hot and dying. I do not get it. It can't be the phone (it is brand new) it can't be the Apps there is only one on there (FB). I think I may have a corrupt iTunes Account?
I charged Both my iphone 6 and my ipad (whichever one was new three years ago) at the same time to 100% i noticed not using both and looking at the batter my brand new iphone 6 battery is dying faster than my three year old iPad. They both run the latest IOS so if
Battery life, with no phone use at all, and no apps at all, is about 7 hours. System Busy clock frequently prevents use, and screen occasionally goes black and is unresponsive for a couple of minutes. Battery has been replaced, but that did not improve anything.
At this point, despite many years with BlackBerry, I am seriously considering going Apple.
My bb curve 8520 is about a year old. 3 days ago i noticed the battery went from 100% to 0% in a span of some minutes. i recharged the battery and noticed it kept doing the same thing. I then replaced the battery thinking it had run its course but the problem persists. I have no open programs running and no new applications installed that might be using up the battery. the phone gets warm and the battery dies rapidly.
So a little over a year now I had my LG G3. Its been about a week of not a bit more that I've noticed this. I still have the same apps that I've had before. I deleted all the new ones I installed. I charge it all night before bed. When I wake up its at 100% I can leave it there and it goes down to 90% in like 30 minutes. So of course I tried to restart the phone.
I've been charging the phone more then 4 times a day, that's how fast it has been dying. It gets super super super hot at the stop of the camera, and then of course my phone goes really slow. But it gets so hot you burn yourself. I seriously can't think of another way of why it is dying so fast. I've never had a phone problem like thos before. I've tried installing apps, to clean stuff won't work.
Since I upgraded to the iOS 5.1 my battery life on the iPhone 4S has been ridiculous. For example, I left my house at 740am with my phone on 100%, I have browsed a little (safari and facebook) for no more than 20-30 mins in total. No apps are not running in the background as I ensure to close apps once i have finished with them. And now at 1400 I am left with 28% battery. i am not due to be at home until 1900.
Have I been unlucky with getting a dodgy iPhone from Orange?? the model is MD242B if that helps. Also, notifications and banners are all turned off except for phone, messages, whatsapp, remainders, calendar. I am careful not to over charge my phone, I do use an app called BatteryDoc to monitor my charging.
I always let my battery go flat before charging to 100% (with no trickle change), i believe this is a normal charge and what BatteryDoc advises i perform a full charge..
