@amanno1:
Works fine for me, I think you should do a master reset of internal disk format.
Also, you shouldn't need to take the battery out. Try holding the power button for about 10-15 seconds.

I`ve done an internal formatt,master reset and flashed it four times and the problem is still there.Also it keep disconneting from my router alot more.I never had these problem with the last firmware.Also i`m writing this on my pc cause when using the phone,it shut down.The virtual keyboard would`nt come up and it said your phone has restarted to inprove performance!!Also when i held down the on/of switch,the phoned turned of.

hmm i will update with my dial up connection which is only 5.7kBps 3 hours later from now! i heard it take 60 to 70 MB to download. so i think i need 4 to 5 hours to complete the whole procedure. but i have no other option in my town. so i will do it. i am bit nervous though. but people wish me luck. bye....

update to the latest PC Suite. This is how my issue got fixed.
On the conflict policy I had the settings on keep items on mobile, but it really did not matter. The contacts that weer duplicated were the ones with pictures, and voice tags. On top of that, the old 1.2... PC Suite was screwing the contacts pictures, and these were all pixelated.
Now, these issues went away, not because of the FW on the P990, but because of the PC Suite.
Nor for me. With the latest PCSuite I still get duplicates in Outlook for contacts with pictures. And no the setting is not Merge. In fact, that setting only works for manual sync.
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 |

OK. So I did some other things. Maybe this will help ya:
1. I organized my contacts in the phone the way I wanted to (pix, voice tags, and all)
2. Then, I deleted ALL the PC contacts
3. I force synchronized (in advanced sync - Overwrite PC) the contacts from the phone to PC
4. In Outlook, I went in ALL the contacts and I switched in the Files As field from Last, First to First Last
5. Synchronized normal this time (I have keep contacs in [hone and overwrite PC as a setting as I said before)
6 Second time no changes detected and no duplicates; pix are just fine.
This just worked out for me. But hell yeah, it's a lot of work considering I have 500 contacts. |
