Hi guys,

I've contacted the french consumer/fraud organism, and have now been given a contact i need to get in touch with to further explain the p990 issue.

I'll need to explain where is the problem, and i think i'll go with :
- space key not working (the most obvious bug, anyone can understand it as a notable gripe)
- advertised features not delivered (voip/rds)
- no will from SE to make things work

What would you mention ? I'll be in contact with a non tech guy

Just received a response to my support Case : 71154808.
It says:
----------------------------------------------------
New software development and updates provided for P990i/M600i/W950i will continue until all the bugs in these phones are corrected.
----------------------------------------------------

I guess this is as official as it gets. It is an official response by SE so it's binding.
So lets make sure the wiki is as good as we can make it.
Visit http://uiq3.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/R6D23 to add and to confirm existing bugs.
P990i: A mistake, a curse and a disgrace So I lowered my expectations and settled for a P1i. I couldn't keep my expectations so low for a long time so now I have an HTC Touch HD

Hi all,

So was the original statement on the SE developers site wasn't it? so some one is wrong aren't they? and if you can't trust a statement from the head of a department who can you trust at SE obviously no one must be the answer to that.

Whilst if it is true that SE have been forced to change their position which obviously is a good thing just the fact they dared to think they could get away with this type of action in the first place is more than enough to destroy what little faith i had left in SE and i really can't see why any of you should of had to do so much to get what you were entitled to in the first place as it is your right not a privilege it's not like SE are doing you any favours. I certainly won't congratulate SE on doing the right thing eventually.


Marc

I've been following this thread from the very beginning and I must say this is
excellent, the level of unity (worldwide)
how the small guy can make a difference against the big corporate company.

BTW how do you confirm the bugs in wiki?

and again well done guys!!

I would like to contribute my share of the bugs but unfortunately my CDA version has no latest version yet. Any way, thank you all of you for your efforts to convince SE for the need for continued support for UIQ3 phones.

i hope so much, that we will get more fw updates for the p990, but i do not believe in an email from the support. that is by far not enough to stop all the startet action! i want to hear something from a offical side. till then we should not stop to spread our word and think about other possible actions.

if you call the support, you will find someone, who would claim that there is no p1 coming out or that they only know about the firmware r5, because r6 is not released yet.

Let me clarify, the response I got from SE support was an email, written and sent by SE support and logged in their system as such. I would say this carries more weight than the other announcement which Johan relayed to us.
At least now I have an official statement from SE which is legally binding. They accept the bugs and promise to get rid of them. Let's see what time will show but I doubt SE support could send such an email without SE HQ's approval.
I agree that we should continue our efforts, shows we are on the right track.
