hello everyone, some of u may remember that last week ma v800 died unexpectedly of unknow reasons, well guess what! ITS DONE IT AGAIN!

Yes thats right, i was listening to my mp3's on the way home (i gonna stop doin this on my new one wen i have swapped it) an it switched off.... thinkin it was a battery not bein charged i left it till i got home. But alas no battery light and no switchin on... bugger. I really dont know what the hell is goin on. I know loads of people with this phone and no1 has had this problem happen to them... i have on my 512Mb duo card:

67 audio files (ranging from small tones to full songs),
81 image files (all taken on the handset),
100 Themes,
21 video files and,
147 java games (a lot i know but i get bored easily)...

and about 384Mb of free space (so it isnt even near half used let alone fully used)

Just an eyes up for everyone, as i gonna swap it tomorrow in work i aint that bothered... its jus a bit of a ball ache and may happen to someone on here...

See yeh soon...

its one of a few things that they didnt have someone check during testing... i know as i do that for my job... they should of loaded the memory card with lots of media an tried using it...

Could b a big problem if it aint sorted soon.

i don't think you should comprise with something so simple as playing an mp3. my personal opinion is that you wait until voda/SE get their act together, or get a different phone. crashing playing an mp3 is awful.

Examine the length of the filename for your files. My phone would not let me play-back songs which had long filename's, though it never crashed. I hope this helps a bit

i am startin to think that someone in voda has a big button with my name on it and each week they check esato for my posts and if i have given ne info away they press this button an ma fone self destructs...

or i could jus be wearing the little pixies (yes all fones r run by tiny pixies in your phone!) out too quickly and they b dying on me
poor little fellas (an ladies as SE is an equal opportunities employer) i must of killed loads of them in last week... now if only i could order some spare pixies... i'd b a happy chappee.

Done a search on google an nowhere can supply pixies at a decent price.... lol.

@voda_jon,

now that is just being ridiculous, everybody knows that phones run on magical fairies, not pixes.

Maybe the phone is telling you a voda employee, that it should not be oppressed, and should be free i.e. no branding just plain good old SE.

i upgraded my MW (MagicWare) to level 8, main updates include pixies instead of fairies (more stable and reliable), but still they HAVE to wear vodafone t-shirts which cause them to overheat and not play mp3's properly... lol.

I'm gonna set up a new website for people who's phones have commited suicide on more than one occasion.

When you returned your phone last week, that phone may have told other phones to play dead if you go work for jon! They arent really dead, they might just be playing dead!
