Is there a way to update firmware using mac os X? I've not bought an M600i yet, but I'm reluctant to if there are firmware problems if I cannot update the firmware. With my previous SE phones it was suggested I sent it to a Service Centre - but I'm not getting into anything like that. |

Still having difficulties with sms, mms and email. Causes phone to crash everytime I get one. I will try to do a master reset and see what happens. This sw version has been the most instable one yet to me. I did not have any trouble before, but now it crashes and reboots... |

New firmware very stable for me.
The problem I am experiencing now is that although the web application initially opens relatively quickly (2-3 secs), opening time gradually deteriorates and the application now opens in 20 secs.
I have triedmaster resetting and the same problem occurs..
Any suggestions? |

My problem is gone. However I had no problem with the time to open the browser. It is now much quiker.

@Lucas & Avantis, after a Master Reset my web takes a few secinds to start as opposed to 15 seconds. I have now problems with messaging - but when I did use incorrect settings the Messaging app can become unstable. |

@Lucas, actually I've had problems receiving MMS, I thought it was a problem with T-mobile but as you have the same problem perhaps is an issue with the M600.
Join the 'dots' and see what happens |

It takes as long as 30 seconds to save a password in the web application using the Password Manager (e.g. when you visit Esato.com for the first time and login) - this seems like a long time.
Also, the PlayNow app crashed on me yesterday. Now I think this app also uses an app like Password Manager. When you attempt to buy a music track you are given the option Yes or No to buy the track. I selected 'No' and this resulted in the app crashing - I could not end the process from the task manager. In the end I had to restart the device.
I am using R3A

Same problem here. Music layer crashes a lot. But I never had to restart. I tried starting it again and it worked fine.
After reflashing I have not yet had a crash reboot yet in the last 28 hours of use.  Random app crashes and memory errors are there but I can live with that until next firmware.
Also I noticed that there is a lot of background noise while playing AAC/MP3 music in Music Player. Kind of GSM static noise. Did anyone else notice it??? |

Music Player - using the free headset I noticed some backround noise on AAC, with a pair of SE HPM-70 the problem really not noticeable ann with my Sennhiesser hifi headphones no background noise. I use 128kbps encoding or higher. Overall I have been very impressed with sound reproduction quality |

Yeah, I've got the background noise too. I'm using the HPM-70 with the Shure E4C. Does sound like the GSM / handphone data signal. Hopefully it's fixed in the next firmware update (if its possible). Having said that though, the music reproduction is great! Much better than the other Sony MP3 player I was using. |

I am using Apple iPod phones. Though they are not pretty good but since my bro took my Etymotics ER-4P's I cannot test with them. I have my music at 256 VBR encoded with iTunes so that is not an issue.
Maybe the noise is still there with you but not very audible on a particular set of phones.
Waiting for the next update.
And my phone hasn't rebooted yet Thanks for your help |
