what problems are you having?
Posted by spine6
@PK
the headset loose. I have to put it in and out of the port to get the headset work. I already clean the metal of the port but no luck.

@spine
I've got the same with my M600i sometimes i can hearonly one speaker (left or right). When I move connector or take it out and in it works.
And i am sure this is problem with female connector in phone not in headset.
@PK does p5i has the same standard se fast port?
Posted by remirez
PK, does the new UIQ has the transparency effects like what can be seen here :http://www.symbian.com/symbianos/screenplay/index.html ?
A simple yes or no will do

Only a few days for the announcement now
do you captured any photo of p5 ???

@tomasz.luch
yes mate the port is the problem. I hope they can fixed it or show us a way to prevent this specially to the future phones..
Posted by ares
i hope they won´t change the fast port for gods sake!!! another change??? no way...that would mean all the accessories we have would be useless in the future, again...what they can do is build it better...i´ve been lucky, because on my k750, P990 and now P1, its been working ok

They'll be going to this standardised micro USB port sometime soon remember... if not with the P5, then the P after that I'd have thought. Probably for the best too in the long run.

@Boinng
Micro USB would be nice, but it doesn't solve all port problems. Headsets and headphones as far as I know can't use USB port, as this is a digital port.
Posted by anonymuser
Isn't it just a squished version of the mini-USB? My Tytn II uses that for headphones/headsets just fine, so did the Moto RAZR and various other phones AFAIK. Having said that, it'd be great if they standardised on a separate 3.5mm jack for audio anyway.
Posted by spine6
IMO, it can only be solve if they improved the fast port to eliminate these kinds of problems.. but the question is HOW???

..isn't this (USB mini/micro) what Motorola uses in their phones? I seem to remember that my RAZRv3 had this kind of port - and this was the port my handsfree was using...
(Still, the -problem- was that the charger used the same port/plug, and Motorola didn't have the skills (i.e. like
) to "open" the charger plug so that I could both charge -and- talk at the same time. 
Damn annoying.)

Believing all the speculation...
If this new phone with integrated GPS and all the promised stuff is out in June/July 2008, stable and without major bugs ... the question is:
--> WHO is going to dump the P1 for it ??
Posted by PeterKay
already dumped the P1i
Posted by Pierke
If it's really that good, i'll dump my p1 for it!
Posted by Solitaire13
I love my p1i
, i will never give this baby up. I read on the forums about uptime on p1i. To tell the truth my p1 has been on for atleast 2 months without crashing/freezing etc.. Im not sure why you guys are having problems. To be honest i was suprised when someone mentioned that you have to reboot the p1 every 2-3 days. I found this to be pure bullshit as my p1 has been on for atleast 3-4 weeks without a reboot. My phone works primo....all my friends always play games on my phone thus they use it even more then i do : )
Peter could you answere my question please?
Im new to the UIQ software. If UIQ 4 gets released is it compatible with the p1? (Will the p1 be able to use UIQ 4) from my guesses no but just wanted to clear that up. This is my first SE symbian.
Posted by anonymuser
If it's out in July, I'll just have to wait out two months of my Tytn II contract before I can get it, by which time it should have hit the price/availablility sweet spot...
Mind you, it'll have to be amazing to replace the Tytn II
It'd better have good Activesync support too...

PK,
"1st to own a P5i"
enviable signature.....!
How do u rate p5i against iphone for ui alone ?
< please select one from below options
>
#1 p5i is not as good as iphone
#2 on par with iphone
#3 a tad bit better
#4 much better than iphone
#5 iphone is crap
Posted by PeterKay
Not had an iphone yet so cannot compare, but for UI looks the P5i i feel is better!

Thanks for clearing that up. Now to just wait till the 15th, anybody want a p1i?? lol.
Posted by gango
this thread is completely pointless. no real information and all speculative. Best is to just wait an see what will happen.
We don't even know if the new P series will be a P5i.
cheers
Posted by masseur
the actual name doesn't really matter though.
P700 turned out to be P1 but the details discussed here were still largely correct
Posted by gango
that's my point. All what is being said here is public knowledge already. Please point out something that is really new?
Posted by laurenke01
There hasn't been anything overtly new, no, because PK is not legally allowed to give us anything new. He has hinted, however. I've followed this (and the previous) thread from the beginning and have been able to piece together many "new" bits of information I did not previously know (or was unsure about).
Posted by tesssst
So you kids are... how old, 15?
And that other kid, PK or whatever, he must be, what, 12?...
" I have the p5i..." "First owner of the p5i (and still virgin)" juhuuu!!!
Don't you have anything better to do? School, football, I dunno...something?
I mean ...its just a phone, surely you can wait 5 days to hear what SE has to say, cant ya?
Chill!
Posted by spine6
If they are just 12 or 15, this kids are amazing.. Giving a review and not just a review a great review about a phones with technical terms and pictures. And they already have a connection with SE?? What a kid!!

well...the reall important thing is knowing P5 and w980 will be able to use UIQ3 apps...that will alow:
1 - people with uiq3 phones that upgrade to "uiq4" will still be able to use their old apps
2 - developers will be able to make apps to a bigger number of devices/users: M600, W950, M600, P990, P1, "P5", "W980" and the other one that is supposed to be presented, "P700" , plus the Moto Z8, Z10 and the newer ones with UIQ
I will keep my P1 untill the P5 is at a decent price

Correct, the name is not a major issue.
Knowing
they can change the name even a minute before the announcement and that would not surprise me at all in this case! Knowing that production units are still months away they can do this with no hesitation.
Just been asked via PM to do a Mini review and get paid lots of money to do it (from an external source)
Only if i was allowed to do so
Posted by JC08
Looks like some of you just post to insult, if you dont have something positive to say just keep quiet!
Posted by PeterKay
Please stick to the topic.
Posted by tomasz.luch
Is this forum somehow moderated?
@masseur
Can you ban people or everything is allowed?
It's really annoying when somebody tries to spoil the thread...
Throw this guy away if he cannot behave

Yeah, as nice as lots of cash sounds it most definatly would not be worth losing your future
protos.
Anyway, once again back on topic - can't wait to see the real thing since the photoshop by sealover just looks amazing

when you provide some pictures and minireview, people will stick to topic,
without knowing the topic(specification and pictures) how will people stick to it.To avoid off topic do the needfull.

Not gonna lose the next few years of protos for one silly mistake.

I understand, but i dont need the specification or pictures,i'm speaking on half of esato, but one sentence of yours have made this thread this much Confusive,
That is
"who wants a picture"
when ur not allowed, does this sentence is really a need.?

Absolutly understandable
A few live pics after the announcment would be nice to give a real feel of the phone though, as long as that's permitted anyway

What's the beta agreement like with SE?
Posted by dr_thug
@pk,i haven't been following this thread regularly(coz u were not disclosing anything in the last thread..and seems like the same from the last couple of pages of this thread),so apologies if my question has been already answered..
my question...
When will we see your review and photos of p5??A date and time...just like u gave a date for the p1 review.Or at least ask the SE guy when you will get the permission to do it.
Thanks.

All thanks to Esato in all honesty! If i didn't come accross Esato i would never have had a
phone or even a proto.
Also having many contacts in the Mobile industry helps
No time and date for any reviews set just yet as i need to get the proto back before i can do anything else
Posted by sealover94
Hello to everyone again.
Yeah i am the guy who did the P5 in photoshop
Thanks a lot @masseur and @PK for their support.
@Beta tester your name IS on the photo can't you see it??
"Special thanks to @betatester"
epsecially for the interface.
I have seen P5 ONLY ONCE (and power-off). (some people here already know that)
Soon there will be another photoshoped (actually coreled
) image...
i hope of cource the real photos to be published sooner so you can see it too
@pk : How did you know that someone couldn't had taken a photo of you holding the P5 in the stadium and then had the image uploaded on the net?It's too much risky...more than a blurry-dark spy-photo..!! Be more carefull if you want your job..!

@sealover, welcome back my friend.
I should be more careful i am aware of that, thanks for the tip
Looking forward to more of your photoshop skills here
When are you going to teach me how to use photoshop!!
Posted by chuksy
This time next week hopefully we shall be seeing the much talked about p5i if its name is not changed though. I just wish its introduction into the market is much sooner than may/june cos by then many other makers would have had theirs out there or planning to with similar or more features,specifications,etc.
I've always been a SE fan,and i believe in their product.All fingers crossed and hoping this time,it would not be dashed hopes -eg p990
Posted by cellpassion
the problem with SE is that the gap between the announcement and launch is too big... by d time d p5 will come to d market, rivals will b ready with their own products... nokia is expected to announce a touch screen phone in jan-feb, will SE be able to compete wid that?
Posted by hyellow
I believed that nokia already had touch based devices.
Some phones especially for the chinese markets... because of the chinese characters or so. then they came with the internet tablet, n300? n500, n800? So, in terms of TS technology, nokia may be even ahead of SE.
It's just a matter if they want to or not. But as SE fan, I'll always stick to SE.
Posted by cellpassion
fortunately, or unfortunately,nokia couldn't get much success wid its touchscreen phones... the 7710 and 6708...
i hv heard that their internet tablets r quite popular...
but coming back to SE, i hope that they bring something revolutionary and not just any run of the mill touchscreen device...
