Hey guys today my K850’s [*] and [9] key doesn’t work properly. When I press these bottoms, does work only one time in 1000 press. Can I do anything myself or does I have to sent it to care centre?

hey guys....does anyone know if it is possible to hide certain pictures from appearing in the media player!!!!

i have added a couple a couple of wallpapers in a wallpaper folder i created in the pictures folder on my phone...strangely in the media player some appear under camera album...while some appear under pictures..even though all are actually in the same folder...all are jpeg...and all are the sizes 240x320..its kind of annoying as i only want my photos to appear in the camera album.

any help or advice would be greatly appreciated


Yes it's possible. You have to convert the picture you want to hide into .gif or .png. Do not replace .jpeg with .gif (or .png), you have to convert it with a software like paint, photoshop, picture it...

If you replace .jpeg with .gif (or .png) it won't work.

Try to restart the phone. If it don't work try a master reset. if it still don't work try to update it with SEUS.

If your * and 9 keys still doesn't work care center will be the only solution.

Is there any way to "program" a button to act like a play/pause button? BEcause I love that feature at my K550i.

Hey guys. I got my K850i yesterday and I love it, especially after the disaster that was the Nokia 6280. I was wondering though, is it actually possible to reassign the touch screen navigation keys? I keep opening the internet browser wnen I don't mean to, and it's starting to annoy me. Many thanks!

There is nothing you can to to manually change them, however debranding your phone will give you "Media", "Menu" and "Contacts" as the soft keys.

Hope that helps!

Is there anyway to rotate a video on the phone or PC when it has been taken vertically on K850 ?

Or do I tilt my head every time I watch it ?


Tilt your PC Monitor/Phone..


there is a way to do this in VLC player....in settings u select extended GUI and then in the Video Tab select the Transformation Video Filter. You can modify the transformation video filter settings through the preferences.

or u can try using this tool..

I tried following your advice and selected extended GUI and then Video Tab and then select Transformation Video Filter when I used VLC player to rotate the video because I took the video with camera phone vertically but the video comes out upside down. How do I keep rotating the video picture so it doesn't play upside down? It tried going to Preferences as you said to modify the Transformation Video Filter settings but I can find anything to further rotate the video so that it won't play upside down.

Now even with the K850i and other A2/A1 phones we can READ a new message or email IF, and only IF Activity Menu is set to PopUP. You cannot Leave the browser (NetFront; as a running application) and goto Main Menu> Messages> New> SMS/Email to create & send a message and jump BACK to the Browser on the same Open page you left.



Oh I beg to differ! It may not be the simplest way, but when you are browsing using any A1/A2 phone with the basic Netfront browser you can send a message and then afterwards continue browsing!

On a A2 phone, simply press the call key (the key with the green phone on it) and it comes up with a screen allowing you to make a call. Press "Look up" and scroll to the contact you want to send a message to and press "Options", then "Send Message", afterwards you should be sweet. When sent, press the back button a couple of times to get back to your browser exactly the way you left it. Easy as pie.

On an A1 phone (forgive me, I don't have one nearby), you have the option in the "More" or "Options" menu to make a call or go to the Phonebook. You'll see it. Once you've found it you'll have no troubles working out what to do.

I'm still looking at how to use audiobooks & find a format that works. I use Audible & the k850i wont recognise this format.
Anyone got a clue?

Has anybody been able to properly load audiobooks to their phone(within the audiobook category in music)? I've tried changing Id3 info, but it continually mashes the mp3 audiobooks with the rest of my music.

Maybe this is a little dumb but have you tried converting to the same format as an Ipod Audiobook? Im just wondering if Audiobooks have some significant difference to MP3 etc. Maybe im just thinkin out loud but if someone has some time maybe give it a go??
