All very well but IMO the issues aren't firmware related as its not just affecting O2 handsets, but pretty much all of them including SIM free (although I appear to be fortunate and experience no issues). There certainly seems to be a large bad batch out there - people either have all the problems or none of them, and since everyone is running the same firmware it must be a hardware problem or manufacutring defect with some of them.
For example a number of people have reported crashes when transferring over bluetooth or rotatiing photos, and of course the standby crashes none of which I have ever experienced. |

No you can't say people either have all the problems or none of them, that's nonsense as you can plainly see from other topics in the forum. I have had no standby crashes yet I have had 2 bluetooth crashes. |

It just teething problems unfortunately, with something this new things are going to go wrong because the product is going out to mass audience - just look at Windows XP!
So far, fingers crossed, i've had no issues with my O2 branded K750, one 1 crash after taking a phone, nothing else and i've been messing around with it a lot recently - pehaps it was a bad batch, i can't believe that SE would produce faulty handsets, its not in thier interest (from a PR and recall point of view).
The standby crash does sound pretty awful thou - i really can't understand why that one fell throu the net.
As for returning my K750 to O2 - no way! I'ts working fine, made that mistake last time and got a crappy nokia replacement - not again! I'm sure any issues can be ironed out in firmware updates (sounds like one will be out pretty soon), and its easier this time that the cable is supplied.
I really do feel sorry for all those K750 owners having problems, its such a great phone, shame its let down by teething issues. |

Had my 2nd K7501 about 10 days now, from an o2 store. First one went back with BT problems. This one seems fine - not a single crash. Was initially tempted to return it when I read this thread, but on 2nd thoughts have decided "if it aint broke, don't fix it" . Will keep a look out for new firmware online though. |

Sharp has many more problems in bluetooth than SE ..........
Nokia also has several models that most of the first batch phones hang. According to your logic, then Nokia will be out of market next year ..... |

Mines not crashed as such, but it does suffer from severe slow-downs frequently, almost pauses ...also when moving around the system, if done quickly, frequent screen corruption occurs.
Will pop into the o2 store at the weekend and get my name put down on the list methinks or at least get some more info from them as to their plans.

Thereīs got to be one in every thread.. SE Doomsday prophet, that is..
Nokias 6630, 6680 and 6230i seems less than stellar to me judging by other forums, but perhaps that doesnīt count? After all Nokias shelf life is around three months anyway, so who will care after this summer anyway, right 
I pity the poor sods who bought 6630 just to have it exit stage left for the 6680 (who in turn will exit stage left for the N70 around the time it is time to recharge the 6680)
M-Rīs test of the N90 does not inspire confidence either IMO even if in all honesty it was a preproduction model they reviewed.
Bottom line: donīt gloat on other manufacturers problems, next time the laugh is on you with your new < insert manufacturer and model here >
In any case i miss the days when you opened the box and simply used the phone from day one til it was time for replacement (most of the time out of pure boredom), and that goes for all brands IMO. Quality control and proper development has taken a step back to the hysterical demand for new phones every month.

I thought you couldn't use the update service if the firmware is O2 customised. Wouldnt you need a specific O2 firmware to update your exisiting O2 firmware? |

Clearly jinxed mine by posting saying it hadn't....just tried to make a call to find it crashed on the standby clock and had to remove battery...
Oh well...i've put my name down for a replacement with the O2 store i bought it at...they offered to exchange it for a different phone straight away and said they had withdrawn the phone from sale..nothing new ... |
