Hey, everybody!

I'm kinda new here... I searched the forum, but have found nothing about my problem:
I've bought a new R600 from Vodafone here in Hungary, but have a few problems. These are: I usually can't send sms-s, because it says error sending sms - or something like this. I called Vodafone, but they said there is everything ok in there, and the problem is in my phone.

Have you heard a problem like this?

Other:
It restarts itself occasionally. I watched it, and noticed that it restarts itself, after lost the network, and wants to log on again.

Is there a new FW around, that helps these problems?


Other:
Do you know a sw that can edit the phonebook?

Thanx
KCS

there is in fact a 6.00 released... but it was removed quite quickly since it turned out that the software put a different phone lock code than 0000 on the phone. Now the 6.00 version available is said only to be used for Australian phones...

so a new version will probably be released quite soon

Error when sending a SMS message.
Restarts itself every now and then.
Very slow while opening a new SMS message
Display color changes itself

Hello.

I did go back to the store where i bought my R600 and i got a new one, my FW is now 5.044. But most of the problems are still there.

So I went to an Ericsson Service Center with my T65 and R600 for a firmware upgrade. I travelled 110 kilometers, and when i came their computer which connects to SonyEricsson was out of order...

Is there a way to do it yourself?

next time... call them before you go there

you can't update the firmware yourself... you need special equipment to do the updates...
