Mmmm, I guess the keys should also be white then.
On mentioned site I also noticed that all colors of K800 bodies had a black lens cover. A full color change always looks better (just my opinion).
If these things are real and good, I'm considering a complete new body for my G900. (And might try spraying the old one.  ) But still I would very much like a (mostly) metal body for my G900. That would be amAzing.

Hai, anyone else find the battery cover very noisy and sqeaky.
I honestly say I hate it. Especially when I'm texting at night. The squeeking is absolutely terrible and I often just remove the cover. Is there anything that can be done about this?
It's like the cover is too big and there are gaps in between.
I don't like the cover system in general... :/ |

My one squeaks too but you could put a few bits of paper between the battery and cover to try and stop it. Will try it when mine comes back from repair for the second time! |

I've put a piece of paper behind the cover and the squeeking is gone. But does it really have to be like that.. Isn't there any other way of fixing this? Also, I as well have dust behind my screen.. :/
To me, this phone is crappy. Very crappy and poorly made.

The G900 white paper says it supports the bluetooth HID profile but my computer says that it does not when searching for HID devices.. I want to use the phone as a remote control, but can't seem to figure it out.. the excerpt below is from the white paper where it even mentions xml-files and images for the remote control.. I haven't found any mention of remote control in any menu or anything.. anyone here knows how to get that working?
cheers...
"Remote control
The phone keypad is configured for control of a certain computer application through a special type of HID configuration file consisting of an XML file for the keypad and an image for the display. HID configuration files can be downloaded into the phone using the normal file transfer mechanisms.Users can even modify the files themselves on their computers. A few configuration files, pre-loaded in the phone, enable the user to navigate on a computer desktop and control presentations and Media players.
System functions
Characteristics
The HID configuration files, and the set of predefined HID configuration files, are customizable. The configuration files can be modified by the user if transferred to, and opened on, a computer.
Enablers and bearers
The HID-based remote control function works over a Bluetooth connection. It is possible to download the HID configuration files via a Bluetooth or USB connection. It is also possible to transfer the files to another device using a Bluetooth connection." |

My one doesn't squeek, just thought I'd throw that in! Show off, I know  lol
Actually I must say, I've not had any problems with the G900, I really must be in the minority. The only fault I've ever had with it, is the camera freezing one or twice, and I don't use it much anyway.
Can someone confirm when the last SE update was for the phone? I'm scared to update it in case something does start to go wrong...! |

Wasnt goint to open the housing. Was going to put it under the battery cover. Not sure if it will help though!
Dodgy screen. K&N (UK repair company) returned the phone having reflashed the phone with the same firmware version despite me telling them it was definite LCD problem. I think it was SE customer service who screwed up the job when it was booked in. The LCD freezes up or loses reolution and brightness for no reason locking the phone up. I think its the cold weather. If i keep it on a radiator it works fine! Its gone back again so will be without it for another few weeks and having to use an old T68 whilst its away. |

mine had the same problem(s).. don't think it's related to temperature as it died in early september.. sent it in for repair and they replaced the phone with a new one.. haven't had the problem since.. Not sure if it actually is a different hardware revision without this inherent problem ... |
