Seems alot of guys 'n gals having problem with camerashutter sound.
Would an upgade of firmware do the trick?
What are pro's & con's doing a fw upgrade?
Will I blow the guarantee doing one? Risk loosing features? Risk ending up with a useless piece of hitech?

@trashcanman

I used Davinci Team. The process went smooth and the phone works great - no camera sound! I'm sure the warranty is voided now, but I took that into my consideration when unbranding and deleting the camera sound. Of course it's a risk... but I have calculated it against my needs and come to the conclusion that it's worth it!

Also I figure this: If something goes wrong with the phone during the warranty time, there's a 50/50 chance they don't check/care/notice that the phone was updated with firmware that deleted the camera sound! If they do... then it's in my calculation of the risk and I stand by it!

Wonder if anyone know of a good PC calender and adressbook I can sync my k700 using bluetooth with?

(Would like to avoid any microsoft products if possible.)

@all - just catching up with this thread.

Does the post above mean you can unlock the phone yourself ?

Thanks in advance.

If you want to have a jar file on your phone that u can send to other phones or pc, you'll have to downlaod another copy of the file to your phone via a file manger software to the other folder. This way you'll have a sendable jar file.

Hello all, Im having a few problems with my K700i. First off its a Vodafone.

1) some names in my address book show a different number from the one it calls, so if I use it to check numbers to pass onto someone else im giving them the wrong number.

2) I can't use real tone mp3s for my ring tones.

Please help

@timbo - a jar file contains all the classes and various resources(pics,extra files etc) required by a java application or game to run. Its basically like a zip file.

@rubix - Welcome to Esato
1) That contact bug is quite an annoying problem that most people face. Try deleting that contact and re-entering it back into the phonebook. Ensure that you have the latest firmware - R2AE . (Read the Esato FAQ on how to check the firmware version)

2) Read this thread -
How to solve the Vodafone lockdown on using mp3’s as ring tones

Is your phone on a contract ? If you can't get your sevice provider to send you the correct internet settings, try the sony ericsson site which should have your service providers internet and mms settings (they also have email if you wish to use that)

I have some questions that I have been wondering about considering my k700i phone. I hope you could at least answer them with a yes/no

1. Is it true that the k700i has a limitation of SMS-storage on phone memory (not SIM)? After like 20 SMS it tells me to clean up my SMS, while I still have like 20MB of free space! I want to be able to save hundreds of sms like my friends with Samsung phones...

2. Just to check up: there is no way to fast forward and rewind videos while watching them on the phone?

3. Are there any firmwares that allow you to customize the sms ringtone?

4. Is there a java applet available for the phone, making it an IR remote for TV?

K700 has a separate sms memory with a max of 100 sms,both your inbox as well as sent items count. Clear them if necessary if you still cant store at least 70 or so (thats my k700's sms capacity) take it to the SE service center and explain the problem to them

No , you can only fast forward and rewind audio

Until now, no but u can use setool from www.setool.net to change the sms alert tone but it will cost u

Not possible since k700 has restricted access to IR thru Java

Hope that helped
