Hi!

I'm totally new to Esato (seems like a great site!), an partially new to my K800i (also seems like a GREAT phone.. Since I'm still in "try'n'fail" mode, I've encountered a couple of things that doesn't seem to work my way..

This post will be just for the RSS problem - I can't update the feeds, nor ad a new feed. What do I have to do to make it work?

hello and welcome! the only thing I can think of is that yoiur data accounts are not set up correctly. Can you access the web / email etc?

I can receive email, but got some problems sending it.. (I use gmail, and have read a couple of treads about that problem in here.. but that problem can wait for now..

When trying to add the Esato RSS, I get - "No valid feed available at..." and underneath the preadded feeds it says - "Updata not available"...

Sounds like your data accounts are active - Just checked my RSS feed to Esato on http://www.esato.com/rss/ and that seems to be updating fine - can you update any of the pre-loaded RSS feeds?

At least I should be able to help with the gmail issue - please see the following link http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=127013#post1728621

First gmail issue solved - what was the problem? (to embarrasing to say.. thanks anyway.. made me quadrouple check my settings = problem solved..

Second as stated in previous post (had a lot of typos though.. - I can't update the preloaded feeds either.. it says - "update not available"

Just notices that the phone doesn't connect to the internet when I try to add the Esato feed..? Some setting I've missed?

Does the RSS reader works with a WAP connection or does it needs to have full fledged GPRS

I had a similar problem when I was overseas a few days ago - "Update not available" I then nticed in the settings that "Allow Connection" was at the default "home network" When I changed this to "Any network" it updated fine.

Are you trying to connect away from your home GPRS / Internet provider? If not then I can only think it is a problem in the data connection settings.

Try re-issuing them from the Sony Ericsson web data accounts confg program

Thanks!!

Changed it to "any network" and it worked just fine.. I'm in my "home network", but my provider rents capacity from another provider, thereby not being recognized as my home network..? (beats the h##l out of me, but as long as it works..

Rogers - on K790a & K850i also restricts the blogger functions; even though the blogger site will send you an SMS trying to register you. RSS I couldn't get to work right with the Rogers Branding on my older K790a (on the K850i they removed it COMPLETELY, those bastards). So I suggest saving your data - sync with PC Suite. Then unbrand the phone to a generic one - no customizations so you can upgrade the firmware later on.

This'll fix:
* RSS Feeds (adding, updating)
* Save HUGE amounts of memory on the phone (I went from 44 free, low sms/mms; to 79MB Free)!
* Registering Blogger, Send MMS,picture to blogger.
