Thanks for your help ESTOR

How's everyone been? I was off Esato for a bit, but will be here more regularly from now on...

Just a little anecdote...

I was in the waiting room @ a medical clinic this morning and was minding my own business...then I see a woman sitting across me, probably in her mid to late 30's, making a phone call...using a P800! From the looks of it, she didnt seem to be in the best financial situation, yet she's holding a 1000$ phone! I found it quite amusing, wondering if she knew how to used besides making phone calls... I noticed the stylus was missing, I even thought of offering her mine since I have 2 spare ones @ home, but then my name was called lol

Anyways, keep posting, I'll try to get this forum out of the quiet zone

hey...just got back from my trip to london england...if anyones interested they can check out my pics that ive posted over in the K700 pictures forum under general

btw..my friend who works at some cell phone store has somehow managed to be getting in a S700...one that SE is letting him try out and show customers..you know..the whole marketing thing..anyways i get to try it out, should be good


Posted by bacanito
Let us know what you think of the S700, i'm personally very skeptical of its use as a phone, not too keen on that swivel-type design...

Posted by gsmlover
Hi all Canadians,
I just got a new K700i and I am having problem sending/receiving MMS message. I am on Fido.
Any ideas?

Thanks, it works!!! GREAT Thx

Posted by rabitootoo
i am no pro. so do you think if i bought a k700 to work it in Canada on Rogers, will i be able to share pictures? *with my high level-beginner knowledge?

thanks

Posted by westmini
as in picture messaging? cause i have a k700 and my picture messaging works fine

Posted by Anna
Bugger all!! Grrrrr.... Why oh why does my picture messaging not work? I'm at the point where I'm going to have to just give up trying. I've tried getting help in setting it up on various forums (doesn't work), i've gone to Rogers (they sent me to Pacific Mall - they sent me somewhere else, no help), and now I GIVE UP...... the internet browser works fine, but whenever i try and send a picture it moves the picture to the outbox where it stays FOREVER.... Bah humbug! *sob*sob*sob*

(I'm probably just some phone-incompetent-fool) =)

Posted by westmini
hmm....my guess is...although i might be wrong heh...is that you might have set the profile that it will use as the wrong one...theres a difference between the internet profile and MMS profile

Posted by bacanito
@ anna

We're all like that until we learn better ;o) But I think westmini is right about the profile thing...

@West

So did you get your hands on the s700?

@ESTOR

Once again, you are the man! Thanks

There is ONLY one in our VAST land lol
Get the customer support # from the SE website, they'll give you the details...

@ west

Yeah, I should come back more often, I'll make an effort...but threads like the link below don't encourage my visits to Esato...

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=69363

See you guys later

Posted by westmini
hmm it wont let me see that thread...

This is a Private Forum. You do not have access to read this forum.

strange..what does it say

Posted by bacanito
Some loser asking if the P900 had been discontinued, then when he wasnt satisfied with the answers, he'd start insulting other users and say that they were gonna suffer his wrath or something like that...anyways, totally childish people using any excuse to start flame wars...I mean come on, can there be one online community where people don't have to act like they're still in kidergarten? ESATO used to be that kind of place, but now more and more losers are joining...I even "met" some guy who was on here before on another forum, and he left for this very reason...anyways, I'm not gone yet, but I don't give ESATO as much traffic as I used to...It's always nice to see guys like you who still come here cuz they like cell phones

Posted by scotsboyuk
@bacanito

You are spot on, it feels like Esato as a whole is going 'off-topic' sometimes!

you hit the nail on the head there

Posted by Anna
thanks bacanito..... but i had emailed SE asking where I can get a firmware update, and I told them I was in Canadia, and they basically told me that I can't..... rather upsetting

@ anna

Yeah, SE Canada almost seems that it's not the same SE as Europe and Asia...we just need to get more fans! lol

EDIT: Actually, I'll ask around to see if you can get a firmware update anywhere else in Canada...I'll PM you if successful

@ vlamm & scotsboy

nice to see you guys here!

The "guy" I was reffering to is 'fijbert'...but yeah, I mean, my post count went from like 4 to 250 in maybe 2 months and now, well, I don't come on as much anymore...not that I dislike SE, but when you have to try and talk some sense into some guy that's on the other side of the world in an internet café with a t226 and says the little things that ticks off the regulars on this site, I just don't think it's worth it, you know? I'm sure you guys can relate and have seen it happen the same way I did.

I've "met" some great people on here...just to name a few, bobbafett, danberte, you guys, mixin, orangeman/wapchimp, Bianca, and I'm probably forgetting some...unfortunately, as in a lot of different things in life, the bad things often overshadow the good ones...

BUT, if more nice people like you guys come talk to me here, I might just have to drop in more often

Take care guys...

hey bacanito i just got you a gmail invite..hope you enjoy, and thanks for that post...it really is the truth and its good to read when so many ppl can be so rude for no reason at all

Posted by bacanito
hey west, yeah, got it, thanks for that...I had already gotten one, but i can't complain about 2 gmail addresses lol Just in case, can I send that invite to someone else? About the post, well, I think that a lot of regulars feel that way, we'll see if laffen & masseur can come up with a way to limit these parasite intrusions...I guess my only pride up until this point is to not have had any of these morons posting on my CANADIAN thread lol



Posted by westmini

Posted by westmini
im not sure if im allowed to post this here..so if i cant please let me know...but i have s700i in stock and was wondering if anyone here would like to purchase one...PM me for details

Posted by ESTOR
@Anna

Well, get the DSS-20 or 25 sync station and you can upgrade it yourself unlimited times
http://www.sonyericsson.com/updateservice/K700/frameset.htm

Otherwise, bongowireless.com in Toronto should be able to do it, for the same cost of a DSS-25 probably.

Posted by bacanito
@ west

Man, I though you were older than me...but now I think it's the other way around! lol s710 looks better in black, i just don't like the full lenght effect when the keypad is pulled out...but it DOES look like one mean digi-cam!

@ESTOR

can you update the firmware with that though? I was gonna suggest that link too....

@bacanito

It's jolly good to be here in your Canadian forum old boy A dashed smart crowd in here by the looks of things and it seems rather lively too, everyone full of ginger; the U.S. thread seems to have faltered somewhat.

I'm afraid I don't know too much about the Canadian mobile phone market; what is it like? Is the Canadian market similar to the U.S. market, in terms of technology and services?

@scotsboy

Cool man, you're always welcome here...

As far as the market goes, and I'm surprised none of us, including myself, have mentionned that the first GSM operator in Canada was bought out recently...Fido now belongs to Rogers! How do you guys feel about that?

Anyways scots, the biggest market share in canada is still Bell Mobility, and they exploit TDMA technology (check this bobbafett thread: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=60879) actually, you must know it, you were the last one who posted there

Anyhow, for GSM, it is kinda like the states, as Rogers uses the 850Mhz band...and Fido, the 1900...anyways, we're always late on anything new when it comes to GSM, and nicer phones are often too pricy for the average consumer...most handsets are branded and sim-locked...it pretty much sucks dude...

Posted by ESTOR
Yes, K700 firmware can be updated at home using dss-20 or dss-25. But if you have customized firmware from your provider, then new version may not be available for it.

The 2 GSM providers have not been amalgamated yet. There is an offer on the table. The purchase, if approved by shareholders and the government(2 agencies: Competition Bureau, Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission), won't be complete for at least 3 months.

Canada is one of the richest countries in the world...when it comes to different ethnic communities represented by its population lol

I've always thought Canada would be an interesting place to visit.

"picture messaging" IS mms. it's just some stupid name they use for the masses.
