That is the GPRS status icon. In order to shut it off (recommended for extending battery life, you can go under the Internet accounts.
(Since I do not own a W950, I will mention what one can do on the P990) and
Once in the internet accounts, from the menu choose options, and set the preferred mode to CS only. Yours should be set to Automatic.

ok thanks, i've tried that and changing it to 'cs' from 'automatic' means the blue triangle changes to a white triangle. i seem to remember on my old 750i that i was able to get rid of the triangle altogether and it only came on when i connected to the web etc.

any more ideas out there? [addsig]

hi i have a w950 and tomtom installed
it works fine for me,haven't had a problem yet apart from you need to end all other running programmes first or it might not start.

once tomtom is running screen saver or powersaving wont kick in so my advice to you if your using it it your car is to use a car charger.

the tomtom software will only work on your phone if you purchase the dvd version,it is the only tomtom product that has the uiq3 version on it.

don't bother getting it from tomtom theirselves i waited for 3 weeks and it still hadn't arrived so cancelled my order and got it from an online seller,and it arrived the following day. i also use the tomtom bluetooth gps reciever mk2 which works well and has a great battery life.

hope this helps


Bought my copy of TomTom Navigator 6 from Mobilefun.co.uk and it came with the trafic cameras included for free plus a 1 month trial of Traffic reports well worth it
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot.

Are you all generally happy with this phone?




I was very happy with the phone apart from very poor visiblity in sunlight, until the touch screen died after less than a month! I am now in the process of sorting out a repair and I am more than bit P****d off!

that triangle will be there no matter what. The same happens in most of the phones. Kind of standard feature.But being white, it means the GPRS is off for the moment. But I agree, sometimes, very few times, don't know under what circumstances, the triangle just goes away.

Stuart,
As far as transferring files, if you switch the USB connection to file transfer mode, the transfer will go super fast. Yes, you can transfer files larger than 75MB to the memory card.
As far as the TomTom there are several topics discussed at large in this forum. use the search function. you will find all you need.

Hi!

My W950i screen is not easy to see in daylight! I have tried experimenting with the settings but still not so good.

Any suggestions about how to improve the disability outdoors would be much appreciated!

The twilight theme helps as it has greatest contrast

I've a free upgrade from my network provider and, as I have a K800i, I thought I might get a walkman phone, with the w950 seeming to be a good choice.
I've a couple of quick questions about the phone.

1) My main question.. - must you always use the stylus to navigate? If I'm out having a drink somewhere and I want to write a text I don't want to have to get the stylus out and mess about with that.


2) Is this phone compatible with Stereo bluetooth headphones?

Thanks

edit: okay I have the answer to question2. Anyone help with question1? thanks
