today had my friend's p990 beside my m600 , and tried some function at the same time on both phones...

Guys, my M600 looked like it was an F1 can and the P990 was like an old antique !



And this is why we (P990 users) need at least one last update more badly than you guys

but still the sound is not as it should be and can be fixed !

I suppose their strategy is as always:

"NEVER GIVE TO THE CONSUMER AN 100% WORKING PHONE BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER ONE.
GIVE THEM A PHONE WITH POTENTIAL, BUT LET THEM BE ABLE TO USE IT 80% MAX OF ITS CAPABILITIES AND THEN BRING TO THE MARKET A BETTER MODEL ... THEN THE USER HAS NO OTHER CHOICE, HE WILL BUY THE "BETTER" NEW MODEL "

... I think updates are okay but should only really be installed "if" there's an issue that needs serious resolution! my M600i was working fine and I decided to update anyway... it stopped syncing with my PC after the update! I could transfer files and all but wouldn't sync with outlook anymore. since i couldn't sync, i could only restore contacts via beaming from my P910a... well, this lead to this issue where the phone would get stuck in these restart loops... after fighting with SE US and 2 phones later, it seems okay but I always what would have happened if I'd never done the update in the first place! i love it regardless, though... awesome unit!

My new SIM card is not working any better so I guess it's the same problem as tecmobility has.
I called SE service desk and they hadn't heard about it before. They recommended to update the phone again although i already has the latest SW flahed on it.
@tecmobility: have you tried this?

I updated several time but I can assure you that this is know as a a bug by SE, at least by Italian staff. The issue is they do not have a solution.

anjexe - yes, it's the best there has been (or is likely to ever be).

It's generally more stable, faster, more memory free at startup etc... it doesn't have any of the "new" bugs introduced with the latest P990 and W950 firmwares.

Some are correct some are not. Let me list the problems of that list to my problems in order of more annoyance!

1. Occasional clicking/cracking sound can be heard from the back speaker on the phones released for south Europe. However if you try running mp3/video it instantly dissapears, but it starts again as soon as the song/video stops playback. This can be heard on the headphones too.
I HEAR ALL DAY THIS CLICK -"CLICK" ......."CLICK"....."CLICK"

2. Alarm is ringing on Saturday and does not on Monday with settings: "Working days only(Mon-Fri)" and "Sunday" as starting day of the week.
REALISED ABOUT THIS BEFORE 2 WEEKS!

3.Phone occasionally stops receiving incoming calls and SMS but continue to display full-bar signal indicator with no error messages. Service is restored (ie. can start receiving calls again) when phone is restarted. Seems identical to P990 R6D23 known bug 56.
HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR 3 WEEKS!!

4. Alarm Low Volume/Ascending Short Tone: SE decided to change the way alarm behaves. It should be made into option. On R5, the Alarm was flat (volume flat at the level set by user). However, it's now changed into ascending and short bursts, which means if a longer mp3 file is selected, the volume will never get to max at the level set by user
GOT LATE TO WORK 3 DAYS IN A ROW FOR THIS THING!

5. Contact picture resolution is fuzzy due to bad compresion.

6. If the Screensaver starts in Edit-Mode (e.g. SMS) and you unlock the phone again, the input method is set to "Numbers" for me. Reproduceable.
VERY VERY VERY VERY NOT-USER FRIENDLY!

7. Key locked screen does not show status on missed call or unread sms. When the phone is locked and the screen is off, the only way to turn the screen back is to press any key. After pressing any key, the Key locked screen would read "To unlock: Press...". However, the screen does not shows the status of missed call or unread sms and it is necessary to unlock the phone to check for missed call and unread sms
THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FROM THE VERY FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT!

The above are my main problems from that page... The other ones or have not come up at all or i am not so bothered with. Of course i have not installed anything on the phone, and i have unistalled the games, so that might have helped the better usage of it...

had this problem for about 2-3 weeks - basically until i realised that i was not receiving sms.

Then i did a reflash / uploaded again the latest firmware, and from then on the phone is ok...
