I've been having problems connecting my W580i to my computer via usb cable (it is an original sony Ericsson cable). It used to work fine, but now my computer gives me a "Device has malfunctioned. Please reconnect or replace the device".I have all the proper drivers installed for it but it still doesn't make a difference. I also tried using 3 other cables, and 4 different computers, but it still doesn't work. I think it's a problem with the fast port, and i tried cleaning it with ispropyl alcohol and cotton but it still doesn't work. I even tried using a needle to get some of the residue off the fast port and it still doesn't work.
I flashed it and got an error saying to contact att on the screen after i cant figure out how to put the custum pack into the phone using jdflasher. can anyone help me? i got my info from this site here http://www.modmy-forum.com/index.php?topic=2587.0 however when it gets to the part of ading the custum pack.
I have just started using a W980i, phone works fine, it is on the O2 network, when I am in a 2g signal area i can connect to the internet, use google maps etc, but, when i am in a 3G HSDPA area, identified by the 'H' symbol on screen the phone will not connect to internet, i keep getting a 'connection error' come up, I put the same sim card into a Motorola and it worked fine, so it has to be a setting on the Sony phone, (i have also recieved all current software updates, and the connection settings from o2 & sony, direct to the phone)
When I try to connect with facebook and the eplus-internet connection is not available the facebook application searches always for a WiFi. If this is not accessible I cannot cancel the application because it is searching still for the WiFi. I have to turn of the phone and turn on again.

I've had my Satio for a few months now and its been working just how i would imagine it too. Accept from today I have tried to send texts but then find that they are waiting in the outbox saying it will try to resend the message again in a few minutes. I have tried to send a text to other contacts to see if it was a problem with the other person but this still happens. The message wont actually send. I sometimes receive a text saying that "You have a message waiting but your inbox is full" and it says that I should delete my inbox to create space. So i now have an empty inbox and still receive this text... Lastly I have tried to update my phone but this still hasn't fixed this problem! Is there anyway of fixing this?

I am trying to control few SE mobile models such as W595, W705 and more in remote via serial module (Hyper Terminal and others). After a period of time where things went smoothly I ran into 2 major problems: 1. Only the first device is installed correctly on the pictures. All other devices identified as "Other devices” and it takes a lot of time (more than 10 minute) till the second device driver are installed. 2. When I run an automation test which communicate with the SE device via serial (using the comport identified in the device manager as management) suddenly the device stops response to the serial commands from any serial tool (my application, Hyper Terminal, etc). What I see is that the device remain identified in the device manager but doesn't response. When I close the serial session and reopen it I get the response of the previous command.
I have W715 unlocked from Vodafone. Using it in US with AT&T. Trying to use video call function, but keep saying "Video Call Failed".Do I have to change any setting in oder to use video call?
If I download free games, it's ok. When I try to make a purchase, it fails. Then I try using the same SIM card and make purchase with my old K800i, purchase and download success. I'm using Maxis. What has gone wrong?
I've been having some difficulty in sending sms messages lately. most of the time i get the messages sending/operation failed. at first i tried to turn it off and take out the battery. it worked the first few times but now nothing i did worked. then i tried using the master reset which supposedly takes only a few minutes but for some reason it's taken a really long time.
My daughter's phone has started doing something very strange with her contacts - if you enter a number and save it - when you go back to that contact the number has changed - it seems to another number in her address book - it's really bonkers. The phone is only a couple of months old - should we send it back or is there anything we can do? Also she says she has problems hearing people she calls but his is probably a different issue.
I bought the Spiro about a week ago and immediately bought a memory card so that I could store my music on there. The phone did not come with a USB cable (which I find a bit cheeky as people are expected to pay for a USB cable AND a memory card if they want to use it for it's Walkman function - no wonder it seemed like a bargain price!) SO I bought a memory card (SD Micro with an a larger 'adaptor' memory card to put it in my laptop) but not a usb cable as I can't afford it. However, I was told that I could put music files onto the card from my laptop, put the card in the phone and access them from there. Now I have done this, I have ripped the music from a CD, saved as MP3, transferred to the memory card, put the card in the phone, located files on the phone but they won't play!!! It just keeps saying 'playback failed' - whether I play through Walkman or File Manager. I have been looking at the FAQs online but there is nothing that is offering me a solution to this problem. I have also contacted Sony Ericsson Support but have heard nothing back yet. I bought the Spiro for its simplicity but it seems I may have made the wrong choice. So as I see it I have shelled out £50 for a phone and £20 for memory card which I cannot currently use.
Had the W995 for about a month now and after a week it started playing up. At first it occasionally wouldn't let me make calls and would just come out with 3 beeps and return to the contact list. Then it started to become more frequent until it started to not let me answer any calls. when I press accept call or slide open the phone it just hangs up on the person instead. This is actually starting to make a lot of people angry at me now as they think I am just repeatedly hanging up on them, and I have to spend a good chunk of my day explaining whats going on through text (which works fine). I haven't successfully talked to anyone with my phone for days now, and I know its not a signal issue as I have had full many of the times I have received or made calls.
Have just got my w995 on orange contract and am still finding my way around it. In the menu there is a icon called App Shop and when I access it an error message "failed to download catalogue" appears whether by wifi or internet connection. I realise that the playnow website is for getting apps ,games,music etc so is this app shop function no longer in use? or do I have a problem? If this app shop icon is indeed defunct then is there a way to delete it ? I have updated all my software and also used the update phone function to check firmware and all was ok.
When i click on my apps or games menu it says operation failed. i was looking through the forums and found a solution except that solution was for when you could actually access the folder and only when you select a specific app/game it said operation failed. i cant access the folder at all. is there anyway at all to fix this problem for free without having to resort to that wotanserver thing? im not being cheap, i just think its rubbish to be charged anything at all to fix a problem like this when it is the manufacturers fault for selling faulty phones which all have a common problem which isn't caused by a users ill-treatment. and another question, why cant i seem to find software to flash it myself without that wotan thing? i mean, surely its just software that you run. someone must have cracked it?

There's a firmware compatibility issue of W595 with HPM-85 handsfree. Everytime I connect HPM-85 handsfree to my W595 for listening to music, the walkman application pops up with an error message saying "Playback Failed", also, sometimes the handsfree gets disconnected automatically from the firmware and shows a message asking, "Continue Playback Through Speakers" (the firmware disconnects the handsfree automatically even when the handsfree is plugged into the phone).
I checked my HPM- 85 handsfree on other Sony Ericsson phones and turned out that it works fine with no problems mentioned above. Also, I looked up using the handsfree which came with the phone to make sure if my phone had any issue, and it had no problems as above. So I guess its a firmware compatibility issue with HPM-85. I request you to get this issue notified to the Sony Ericsson firmware developers team to fix this bug asap and release a new firmware update.
Hi, i have tried using the facebook application on my Sony W705, but whenever i try login to the application, it always throws an error "Login Failed". Can you please help to provide a solution to this application.
I have put the USB it in Windows mode in the phone. But no sign of life. My old SE W800 connects fine. The purpose is to move all the contents of the old phone to the new one with MyPhoneExplorer
I have a C902 mobile phone. I have a video saved on my computer which I have converted to a 3GP file and an MP4 file. I copy and paste the video into the "video" folder on my phone using the USB cable. But then the video does not appear on my phone. What am I doing wrong? I have managed to save the video on my phone now in 3GP format. It shows as a thumbnail, gives the correct length etc. But when I want to play it, it says "playback failed".
My internet service prov... is really expensive and limited whereas the internet connection on my computer is unlimited and very fast. Is it possible to do that through a USB cord ? I dont have a bluetooth adapter.
How can I disable the internet connection since the phone switches onto internet at random when I do not what to go on line and I am getting unneccessary charges
I have no problem using anything else that requires an Internet connection through Wi-Fi, such as browsing, email and GPS.However, when A-GPS is enabled when using any location service application,the phone will use the mobile network (O2 in my case) to access the server even when connected to a Wi-fi network (my own wireless router).Everything else will use Wi-Fi by default, when connected, but A-GPS seems to be the exception.Has anyone else encountered this problem with the W995 and do you know why? Is it perhaps network related?
My sony w705 won't connect to my sony vaio m series.I added the w705 as a device.But when I try to send files, it says 'Bluetooth peripheral device' not found.I can send files to other phones, I tried with Nokia.And other laptops can send files to my phone.Only my phone and my laptop won't connect to each other.
I have some trouble to connect my PC on my Spiro. At the beginning everything is working well, and next it lost connections as if it was hidden. They recognize themselves, I can connect and give a password. And next it disappear, as a broken connection or a hidden phone. I try from PC to the spiro cellphone, and also from the spiro to PC, same result. It seems sometimes it find again the connection, but only for 2 or 3 seconds, and next it disappears again.
