well I just saw a K618 up close this morning and found what looked to me like a slot in the left side with a hinge like the one in K800.
Now that's what I'd call real hotswappable memory, without having to take the cover off (like in the K610). But I think this one's implemented on the cover design as opposed to a fundamental hardware difference between the two models (I dont think theres any).

HI fellows
This is interesting and I hope someone might have an idea whats going on.
I just used wotan's service to debrand and upgrade my k610i (white).
After the process the new firmware R1GB001 was loaded in to the phone.
But, the phone is still branded to 3. I still have 3's startup screen, background, icons and applications (that is not deletable) etc. etc.
And as a bonus, when the light goes of in standby mode it is not turned on again when I activate the phone again.
I have asked them in there support service, but I would like to here what you think to.
Cheers
/A

Hello
I have the K610 since september and I'm very impressed (in particular support of EAAC+ from winamp).
However there's a tiny detail that's bothering me: alarm volume. Whenever I select a song as an alarm sound (in Organizer > Alarms) the volume starts fine but continues to increase until it becomes way too loud and the speaker distorts like crazy. Which makes the whole thing quite unusable.
Does anyone know how to adjust the alarm sound volume, and/or turn off the auto increase? (I've tried the obvious, ie. the +/- buttons, with no result).
TIA for the help |

Folks, i just have a couple related questions: 1) Can the K618 casing be used for the K610? And if yes, 2) will the M2 card slot become hotswappable? Thanks  |

Nope, the alarm ignores those settings. Seems to be very stubborn.
Maybe a fix is coming in a firmware update.
Is there a way to file bug reports? |

No, you have to buy one (unlike the walkman models, w810 et al)

the way it is now, K610 is hot-swappable. only, you'll actually have to take out the back cover to expose the card slot. it works the same way with W300 and Z530
K618 has identical hardware, if i'm not mistaken. the cases do not look like you can swap just the front and back covers though (like you do with nokias). If you're a hardcore modder you might want to try swapping the innards of both phones. might be doable with a few hole drills here are there. someone around here at esato did it with a K750 front and back and a W800 middle casing
