Hi, will be getting my W950 tomorrow, unlocked. How is it when U update the firmware, des it delete everything on the phone (such as mp3, pictures, videoes ect) or does it stay one? Anyone know? (talking aout if I'm gonna upgrade it in the future).

Thanks




the 4GB drive is a separate drive from the C:/ROM/RAM drive. anything on the 4GB drive is unaffected during a firmware update. u should backup your C: drive however before performing an update an restore it after the update.

@All, Please can we stop quoting in every post many visit Esato on mobile devices and it really slows thing up when loading. Also it is totally unnecessary 95% of the time use the @(name here) its much easier. Please just show some consideration for your fellow Esato users.

Hi!

I have had my W950i for half a day now and will explore more...

And yes I know RTFM and do a search, but an easy question !

I have some wmv music videos and am not sure how to play them.

I saved one to videos using the file manager and I know I need to update music,, but the new mwv does not appear...

Ay advice appreciated..!

I tried out a W950i today and noticed while playing music through the loud speaker, if the phone rings the music keeps playing and the phone makes a beep noise and vibrates... Is this right....??? The number was a withheld no...??? does that make a difference... i.e. if the number is in the phonebook does that make a difference???

Also while looking at the design of the phone I noticed that just uder the WALKMAN logo the phone has a line like its slightly indented there and right at the bottom there seems to be a faint line near the bottom edge from one side to the other... Can anyone shed any light on this please. This is only noticable in bright light.

THE STORE ONLY HAD 1 IN STOCK SO COULD NOT COMPARE

Help would be appreciated... as im considering purchasing this phone....

Cheers
ENJOY

Haven't tried the music playing call part - but I believe the lines that you can see under the walkman logo and at the bottom of the pad are where the soft squidgy (technical term!!) plastic covering over the keys join the solid outer frame of the phone.

I am having a prob with my 3G internet connection where I can connect to the net, view web pages - download my pop email... then for no reason, it falls over and the only way to carry on viewing web pages and downloading/sending emails is to restart it.

Small niggle mind, cuz I absolutely love this phone and wouldn't trade it for the world (unlike my awful n80!)

hello all, been a lurker for a while and now felt i needed to contribute.

The method stated on how to change shortcuts of the More menu doesn't work on Orange branded phones. I was going to complain but can't find anything specific in the userguide on SE site, can anybody change a shortcut?

I don't mind networks branding a phone, but they shouldn't remove default features/functions applied by SE - that is just wrong.

On a positive, i'm liking the phone but taking a while to get used to over w810 i have.

cheers, oioldman

If u mean shortcuts on standby view- yes they can be changed. If u have quick guide in your box there is shown how to do it , I don't know how is with orange branded phones though.


My w950i,
- I can't close radio even in task manager. I have to unplug phones:/
- Do I really have to go into task manager to turn off every application that I was using? Coz when I press "back button" they are always on in task manager.

@SE-Naz

I too have noticed that the music is not cut off during calls this is the same throughout the phone book and also with messages! the only time the music stops is when you actually answer the call!

Hi !

Any ideas on this one...!

I was playing music quite successfully on my W950 and then saw the thread

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=132401&start=15

about Album Art so decided to try it. I made sure the picture was 200 x 200 and updated on my PC two albums.

I then transfered these two albums to the W950 using Disc2Phone and I know now that I must update the music on the handset.

The problem is only one file is found and the W950 then locks up at this stage.

I need to switchc off then switch on again but the music still will not update.

The only thing that I think I am doing different is that I added album art !

Any advice or ideas welcomed!
