racoonice,
pre-paid subscription = no gsm data, no gprs. your option is to go postpaid. |

btw how does ericsson service warranty work? do you have to show them a receipt? I got mine on 2nd hand, and I don't have a receipt for it.. in the eventuality that I would want to replace my front casing, or anything else what do I have to do? |

in my opinion, postpaid and prepaid subscription should entail the same features....
that is so unfair...
it's only a matter of HOW TO PAY IT...
so the services should be the same...
got my point.

Hey fellows! I got my phone in HK for HK$3000 or around P19500 (R1B parin tho). Big discount compared to prices here in the Philippines. I've been a nokia junkie ever since going through the 5110, 6150, 3210, 3310, and 7110. But when I was ready for the big time, the t68 was it. GPRS, bluetooth, tri-band access, 256 color screen, joystick, etc all make it a phone worth jumping off the nokia bandwagon.
Bago palang mag pasko inaabangan ko na yung t68 ko kaya talagang halos gabi-gabi nasa net ako naghahanap. Bago pa dumating kumpleto na ako sa mypictures, xtnd connect, backgrounds, ringtones, at lahat.  I've had the phone for around 3 weeks and I'm satisfied with it I guess. I find it a bit slow especially for us citizens of the text capital of the world! but i haven't really had any real problems with it but here are a few. please tell me what you think.
1. my phone has shut itself off about twice already.
2. my operator logo suddenly becomes "invalid mobile." has happened twice already.
3. I have instances when the phone reports that I "have signal" but people can't seem to contact me such that i get around 10 messages one after another when I turn it off and on.
4. the phone sometimes doesn't respond to a yes or a joystick press to proceed. takes 2 to 3 presses or a reload of the message before it responds.
5. battery reporting is TERRIBLE! at least on R1B. I have to turn it off and on to get it to show a correct reading.
yan lang naman yung mga bugs na naencounter ko na. yung mga functionality issues, like not being able to save phone numbers from messages, bad ringtones, etc are things we have to live with I suppose. And naayawan ko lang talaga is the fact that even though the phone can save 510 numbers, an entry with 2 numbers in it counts as 2 and not as 1 unlike in my old 7110.
About the ringtones, if you have a Palm, I found a program which has around 5000 songs in it and can send them through IR to the phone. Its called EricSong and I think I got it from palmgear. There are also ringtone converters that can convert from nokia, samsung, doremi, etc to ericsson and can convert ericsson notation into keypress format. Its a heck of a lot easier that way. Thanks! |

wazzup to my fellow pinoys! especially to my fellow la sallista's! left dlsu recently and recently transferred to the states. Using the T68 that i bought in the P.I. and works perfectly fine with the system here only problem still stuck with the R1C cause i gotta wait to go back to pinas to get it upgraded in semicon. All I gotta say is semicon really sucks so if you guys gt any complaints, call the ericcson mobile helpdesk. They are the ones that actually takes heed to your problems! peace out |

re: EricSong.
The latest version of EricSong is now called FunnyPhone.
re: Pre-paid vs Post-paid services
Ferrarista44, Tama ka dyan. I have long held that opinion that pre-paid users should be getting all services that post-paid users get. Unfortunately, nag-sawa na ako kahihintay so I switch to a post-paid line.
I also believed then that Pre-paid users should get their services at a lower cost.

hello fellow pinoys kudos to the guy who decided to create this post for filipino t68 users!
i've been reading through the thread and there was previous mention that Semicon can do software upgrade of t68. i was wondering though how long this will take. just a couple of minutes or will i have to leave the unit with them for a couple of days?
how about a local ericsson service center (teka, do they have one in manila?)
thanks in advance |

you can wait for your phone during the upgrade process. it shouldn't take more than 30 mins.
semicon is an only official service point in the philippines. there's another along st. francis at ortigas, SMARTNET 5/F Sn Miguel Properties Bldg |
