Yeahhh phone is faster now, sometimes got the impression that the sound is funny, but when I take it on my hands or use the deskstand with speakers, it's all fine.
But strange thing ... the USB is turning on by itself !!!
Somebody has the same problem ?! |

Maybe this has been discussed before, but correct me if I am wrong, to change the homescreen simple manage your bookmarks so that the homescreen that you want is the first bookmark on the list. If I am not misstaken.

Yes, but how do you make a bookmark to be first? There is no option for this, is there?

I've also updated my phone to the R9 firmware...my problem now is that in Opera sometimes I cannot type "space" caracter ( ) i've tested the space key in messaging and in agile messenger and it works perfectly but in opera most of the times if i type "sony ericsson" it appears "sonyericsson"!
Do you have the same problem?? |

1. The green notification light now goes out whenever I touch any key - even when keypad is locked. Very annoying, because when wearing the phone in a pocket/belt clip etc. buttons do get pushed accidentally and then the light is gone - have to check the screen again (which was already a feature of the P910)
2. Max. characters for SMS is now down to 153 for me......no idea why......
3. SMS notification time: still only shows the time when SMS is received and not when it was sent. Reported to be working for everybody else, unfortunately not for me..... |

My menubutton is dead. (The one in the middle on the flip) Hardly a FW-problem. Probably a mechanical. Anyone else with this problem? Got three options now. Flip on and use scroll wheel to select, remove the flip or go to the shop and see if I can get a new one. Any suggestions? |

I personally like this feature. Most of the time I use hand recognition to enter the code and it's really useful to check if the code is correct. I don't see why it should pose a security threat?
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 |

@ Ares.
The sound when in a phone call, the one coming from speaker is far way lower than the previous firmware.
|

I agree. At first I thought the sound level was set to low but even at maximum level the incoming call sound level is far too low for me. If you are at a crowded place it really does bother me. Strange thing is, FM, music and video players seem to have louder sound levels. This definitely needs to be addressed in the next fw.

Hi All.
I have already twice upgraded the firmware.
I have 3 problems:
1. Every time the device is completely reset: I loose all the notes (!?!), all the settings (background, sounds, bluetooth, internet, one-click-phone-numbers etc. etc. etc.), most of the extra applications installed...
Even a backup done just before the upgrade and a restore just after does not give me back all above.
Any suggestion how to avoid such a pain next time?
2. Indeed, after a *very long* update procedure and all the problems above, I checked the FW versions and they are STILL THE SAME AS BEFORE THE UPGRADE!!! I still have R7A001 for the phone etc.
3. The sent SMS are erased after some time (a couple of days?). I would like to keep them. Any clue on if and where you can find an option for this?
Thanks
Fab

@Makbil
I have simply resolved this problem by entering the secret menu and playing with the front speaker and rear speaker volume up and down from 0% to 100% and now the sound is loud again and even very loud. It can be heard without having the front speaker on ur ear :S Very strange.

Hi, after the upgrade to phone R9EA001 I have the same problem as another member here, the digits are shown when typing in the PIN and the lock code, which is quite annoying. And they do not start with intl emergency digits.... The backup afterwards did not back up all of my stuff. All my SMS were lost, but this is probably because I could not back it up incl. Unified Messaging, I hope? my Email Accounts disapeared as well...
The whole thing seems to be more stable (no sudden restarts yet), but my web browser e.g. always closes on the first time when I try to open it, the second time it works.
T9 has been fixed and works well now in two languages.
The USB connect icon showed up suddenly, even if the phone was not connected.
Otherwise I am still checking:-)
Is there any info actually on what has been changed/fixed in the new fw release? Would be really helpful...
I actually have a direct personal contact to the top management of business development at SE now, if some of you think this could help... |
