Is anybody else having issues with the P990 after upgrading on SEUS where it will not turn on?

I have done my P910 numerous times since purchase a bundle of years ago, but I just ended up having to send off the P990 to SE for service.

Just wondering if anybody else is getting the white/black screen of death.

I upgrade to the latest oragniser release and Inow get daily phone restarts in the mmiddle of a call but mostly as they initiate in teh phone. It only seems to be incoming calls that have this prolbem.

I changed the ring tone on my phone and that made things worse. I have changed it back to the default and the restarts are now once a day at least.

Its not really a business capable phone in this state.

I also really hate no 'home' page in the browser and no easy access to bookmarks.

The K800i is so much easier to use that the system in this phone.

If people keep getting those frequent restarts even with latest fw, and after a reflash and internal drive format, i would ask a replacement under warranty.

Ares, I'm not sure if any of these problems are hardware related. Ever since I got my P990, there hasn't been any indication that hw could be faulty. I still think all the problems are sw related, just how much of that sw can be replaced by SEUS I'm not sure, but there must be some part that can't be replaced by SEUS. At least in my case, a hw problem would be more consistent, having a reset from an incoming call once every 2 months does not indicate a hw problem for me.
I wonder if an update at a SE service center does more than SEUS, with their current level of competency I'm afraid to ask them

I agree with you, an update at a Service Center might work

Greetings.
My name is Louie and i am long time sufferer of the dreaded SE p990.
After reading MANY forums and experiencing the same problems as all of you, and even MORE problems with latest firmware, i have decided that a class action law suit is called for.

I have finally sent my p990 into SE for warranty service, as they said that "something" may be having a hardware conflict. We will see.

What i do find a problem with forums such is this is that everyone loves to vent their problems with each other, but how many of you actually call SE or send there phone in for support ?
I feel that SE can not care any less if no one contacts them.
This i feel is a mistake on our part. Complaining to each other will not fix these FW issues.

Now, it is illegal for a manufacturer to create software that will actually harm your product, such as a FW update that causes MORE problems then what the phone already has. And we all know that each FW created not only does NOT fix prior problems, but actually creates more problems.
If you purchase a crappy phone on the other hand, that doesn't work, then its your choice to return it. But as mentioned, if you use the manufacturer's recommended software and it harms your product, then there is a pending lawsuit.

The p990 is not a teenagers phone, 99% of us purchased this phone for its potential capabilities, with a few exceptions, like myself, that are just tech junkies and need every new item or the best phone out there money can buy. Thus, these phones are for business people, and technically your business is suffering from a product you purchased and come with no support from it manufacturer to fix these bugs.

I therefore propose a class action lawsuit against Sony Ericsson's for providing recommended software that actually renders our phones useless for all intensive purposes.

I only belong to this one forum, and i only subscribed to post this thread, however , i am sure many of you readers belong to other forums or have connections with other p990 users elsewhere. please copy or re post this posting appropriately.

since i am new to forums such as this, i call on a more experienced user to properly gather information on other p990 users or if any lawyers out there want to take this upon them self to put this together. Doing this on my own having never filled a lawsuit could take time. So if there is any other experienced persons please speak up.

Its about time we put an end to this p990 nightmare and demand satisfaction from SE.

This is not meant to criticize you, just our experiences FYI.

We all have at one time or another contacted SE and have received the copy/paste generic reply, so it's from experience that we have learned not to expect anything from SE.

Now, it is illegal for a manufacturer to create software that will actually harm your product, such as a FW update that causes MORE problems then what the phone already has. And we all know that each FW created not only does NOT fix prior problems, but actually creates more problems.

Unfortunately, I have to disagree. Although there are quite a number of issues that still need correcting, each fw update has made the P990 just a little better than before, though I have to agree that even with the latest fw available to the public, the P990 is still far from performing as published.

Its about time we put an end to this p990 nightmare and demand satisfaction from SE.

You are right to demand this but I am not too optimistic. We've been demanding "satisfaction" even on SE administered SE developer forum but so far it's been like speaking to a wall.

....and exactly that is why we have to break down that wall....

However, I think such a lawsuit has to be done by someone that has a dedicated website for that were people can sign up and join.

Bringing it up here is just as before stated, people talking to EACH OTHER with their respective opinions only. Nothing gets accomplished by that. All parties have to have ONE Voice and not picking apart on each others statement... 'I agree... I dont agree' and so on! Its either you think this phone is crap or not.

These forums are more for someone that needs to know HOW to work a feature or HOW to .... whatever. But not How to file a lawsuit.

If anyone comes up with such a suit, I will surely sign up for it.
