Hey anybody... any reason that a t68i hangs? as what i have observed it hangs when room temperature around 15 degrees...
any comment on this? pls help! FW r5c


Posted by Prulleman
it just hangs sometimes, nothing to do with the temp i guess, only the display gets really slow when it freezes outside

Mine hangs often playing erix (r5c)

newer versions are more stable probably, but when it doesn't happen while I'm calling it doesn't really matter to me

Thanks man!
Ya its screen slows down... but hell it really freeze any comment or turning why it hangs? i often play erix but i havnt encountered hang...

Posted by Prulleman
Well, when I play erix it never hangs, but when my girlfriend plays it, it hanged like 25 times or something (maybe it got something to do with the keys, I play with the stick and she plays with the num keys)

It could have something to do with having to much stuff on your phone, thats what used to happen to mine.

Now I always make sure I have about 500KB+ of space on the phone at all times, and the problem seems to have gone away.

This may be just coincidence though....

could be, but not always, i had it before i had anything extra on my phone

It did used to happen a lot on my old phone, especially when playing erix, but after a while it stopped doing it.
Oh and by the way when it hangs, instead of pulling the battery out to turn it off you can hold the NO button for about 20 seconds and it will eventually go off by itself.

Thankfully it hasn't happened yet on my new refurbished phone.

I've got Software version R5D007 by the way.

Acctually the phone does hange when it gets too cold, and i have a suspetion it has to do with the lithium polymer battery, cos on my old t28, and my old t29, both had litium polymer batteris, and when they got too cold, they would hag, and to be able to use em agian, i would have to removve the battery and rub it to warm it up!!!

Does anyone have the problem of sms msg.'s taking a long time to send...when there are 2 sms's (long sms activated)? Often sending actually fails! Is this network related?

I've never had the problem of my phone hanging up.

My phone (t68i) hangs 1/20 times when i put it on alarm and when its turned off...when it then rings and I want to push the yes-button (snooze) it can "hang".....

I had my T68i crash only once, when trying to copy a contact from a Nokia 8210... But that was almost a year ago, with R2A software...

Mine hang once, that was when my phone was connecting with my MCA-25 and I disconnected it.

Mine hangs when I turn "recieve" function, and then, when still active, i try to send buisness card with Irda. It's searching untill reset. Other problem are erix and naval fleet, and contrary. My phone sometimes hangs while playing them, but i can still exit games with no problem.

Erix will hang when you have more than 5 or so lives... it's a weird bug that i've been able to reproduce a hundred times It doesn't automatically hang when you get that many lives, but usually after about going 2 levels with 5 or 6 lives it hangs on me.

So, I keep it under 4 lives usually and it doesn't hang. heh.

Hanging could sometimes be caused by downloaded pictures or themes or lack of free memory

I experienced hangs while browsing via gprs

Posted by dantec
Used to hang when i played with num keys... the phone itself wouldn't just hang.. .it would wierdly reboot itself (flash white for 3 secs) and then come to the idle screen. That was with R2A.

But now with R6A it never hangs when playing ericsson, however once it did hang when moving a picture to my phone from the communicam.

Actually... I forgot to say to the guy complaining about the hanging while sending SMS's send them via GPRS... it goes sooo fast and for me in switz it's cheaper (somehow).

Menu -> Messages -> Options -> SMS access - or something similar

Gud4u! So how do u fyn ur new mobile?

Posted by Coolbox
Hi
Does anyone know if it is possible to disable or get another sofware version where the phone doesn't always pop up with messages. Fx. after every call the phone tells me for how long I were talking. The message stays at the screen for about 5-10 seconds and it is very annoying. I understand that it takes time to open picture- and sms folders but I don't understand all the other pop ups.

Can anyone help please???

Hi everyone. I am a newbie here & quite frustrated with my T68i at the moment. What started as a screen problem is now a major headache for me. I bought my T68i a couple of months ago - Sent a friend to do it for me. I assumed that I would get my usual 1 year warranty so I didn't follow up on that (My mistake there). On the 3rd month my screen lights went off. Phone was ok but there was no light so I sent it back to the dealer but was duly informed that my phone had no warranty. I decided to take it to a repair shop. The fella managed to to replace the screen & it actually lights up but I am now facing major new problems. The phone hangs whenever the following occurs:
1. I receive an SMS
2. I try to access My Shortcuts
3. I try to access Bluetooth
4. Sometimes it just hangs
5. Whenever I try to access MMS

I have also noticed the following:
1. The battery life has reduced shockingly. I can't hold a full charge for a day while I used to be able to sustain a full charge for 3-4 days.
2. My joystick properties have changed. Whenever I push it to the right it opens a menu instead of browsing over it. And the right joystick does not work when I try to increase the volume etc.
3. Sometimes I get calls & cannot hear anything from the other end
4. Sometimes the phone just goes off
5. On some occassions I cannot make calls
6. Some of the keys don't work

I am facing so many problems now and this is really frustrating. A friend pointed me to this site & I will appreciate your help as my other alternative was to bin this phone & get another brand.
Thanks.

PS/Neat forum you got here. Will definitely be looking over it some more.

of course the phone hangs! and it will always do that. all cellphones with complicated programs hangs. from my nokia days to these new smartphones we use now.... they all hang. this is normal with complicated gadgets. our PCs hang too.

but if it does hang more than say 20-times a day.... then that is a problem. it should be returned for repairs.

Posted by treion
does it have the latest firmware?(R8A) upgrade if it is not
are you referring to an authorized repair center (e.g. semicon) or the just around the corner ones? try to go there for assessment/repair

Thanks.
It's just one of those corner ones since there is no Sony Ericsson dealer in my country so the phones are sold by individual dealers.
I think I will have to spend sometime on this forum to learn about the firmware ... Had no idea it was upgradable let alone the version.
