Perhaps this is why it asks you if youwant to transfer sim contacts to phone memory on firstboot...seems a terribly clunky workaround, but it does suggest that the programmers are aware of the issue.

@Pacm23
It could be a compatibilty issue, as the P1 only uses the /b version of wifi, whereas most modern routers are /g. I personally have no problems connecting to my home network as it is backwards compatible.

Thanks AD. But even the networks i used to connect don't work already. hmmm...

I have turned of tranisitons and low and behold the error no longer happens. Great - I could repeat the problem many times over and it always crashed.

What is the advanced lock code?? Do you have to get this right to get access to a new set of tabs in 4.82??

Black Berry works fine - wish I could reduce the font size..


Strange - no problems here with accessing the service or advanced page in BB connect while transitions set to on. The advanced lock code had been in all blackberry versions so far - but I don't know what kind of settings it hides.

..I'm skeptical about that..

It seems there are or have been several problems with programs not functioning (not just functioning improperly) in some strange cases - where you have some contacts on the sim, and others on the phone. The same with duplicates for some reason. A guess might be saying that something happens when the program expects more input- fields than is there - perhaps only when the program makes lists of both phone- contacts and sim- contacts at the same time. So if you just use the phone- contacts, and don't use the sim- contacts at all, you won't notice..

So aren't we saying the same thing - that the issues don't arise if all your contacts are in the phone memory and the sim is blank?

And why, if there was no difference, does the phone give one the option to transfer the sim contacts as part of its' firstboot routine?

I updated yesterday to R9K009 and for the first time ever i have a problem synchronizing contacts with Microsoft Outlook. As soon as it starts a window appears which says "Runtime Error! Program...Files/Sony Ericsson/Mobile4/sync Manager dypsynccml.exe. This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in unusual way" I have the same problem both on my desktop (XP) and the laptop (Vista). Anybody any idea? thanks

...and that, my friend, I think you can!

When replacing the original fonts (Sans Serif....ttf) you might be able to choose a font type with smaller characters.

I think there's a dedicated thread somewhere in this forum...
If I'm not mistaking, this one might help you on the way;

I had this exact problem, the way I solved it was to completely uninstall the pcsuite, including removing any relavant folders under 'program files', and then downloading/installing the latest version from SE's website.

It seems there mustbe a compatibility issue between the new firmware & older versions of the pcsuite.

Almost. ..I tested and checked a bit when I got the phone to find out if the problem was duplicated entries between the sim and the phone. But I couldn't find any problems with just having the contacts on the sim - so I think the problem only shows up when you've used contacts from both the sim and the phone in a program. Such as if you called up someone using the sim- contact entry and not the phone one.. Or maybe had the sim- contact in the phone- log, and then added a phone- entry later, etc. So maybe the call- app can't handle the different types of entries or something of that sort. *shrug* But it's not easy to see - apparently it doesn't happen very often.

I suppose you could be right - that the copy from sim was a workaround of some sort. ..But I'm sure they didn't give it that much thought.

I'm on Singapore Latin and recently updated to R6G04.
Blackberry 4.82 works fine BUT I'm still unable to browser our company INTRANET using the Blackberry Web browser.

I upgraded to this version hoping that the combination of the new organizer version and BBC version would restore my Intranet browsing which I lost when I upgraded from BBC 4.33 to BBC 4.79 (on R6F41).

An upgrade is supposed to be an improvement, right?
Or am I missing something in my configs?

Please enlighten me.
Thanks.

Hi. I just attempted to update using the SEUS yesterday. When I'm just to connect it with the PC and do the whole process, it says that I have the latest firmware/software. When asked me to continue anyway, I agreed and the phone was "updated". When I checked the status, it was still the CXC162037 R9J005 version. Why is it? I checked the CDA list for Sony Ericsson P1i website and found out that the phone region language is Hongkong. Does it affects the update process? What wrong? Why i can't update to the latest firmware which is CXC162143 R9K009?

You have to wait for the FW update to your region. Otherwise I think you can get it changed to a different region.

...and it's plenty of helpful tips in this forum on how to do exactly that.
