The P990 is stable now. If you are not a power user you probably will be satisfied with it. Just remember that the sound volume is quite low and if you are a music listener this may bother you.
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 |

I had mine debranded just the other day, it used to have Voda fw on it. It feels like a new phone altogether.
Its really nice for the price.

i suggest you get one but stay branded because phone calls are not supported well if you dont have a contract! |

I would definitely get rid of the branding - the phone is crippled with it.... Particularly Orange's awful nasty software. The looks better without it. But the main benefit is you can upgrade firmware whenever you wish (although with R6 that's probably not such an advantage - I stayed with R5 and am getting on just fine.) Just make sure you get Swiss Manager Pro.... |

does anyone know if the p990 supports animated wallpaper?
i realize this is a stupid question but i can't seem to get any of the animated gif files to be set as wallpaper. it just shows up as a still image. in either FO or FC.

Whoa! There's something wrong with my storage wizard, it closes itself after step 1 and the message is:
Application closed:
Application: Storage Wizard
Reason code: USER
Reason number 9
I'm running on:
Phone CXC162037 R9F011
CDA 162007/2 R5A13
Anyone experience the same problem? |

According to the specifications on the SE site, the P990 should support animated wallpapers per http://www.sonyericsson.com/s[....]mplate=pip3&zone=pp&pid=10336.
Just another bug on the long list of P990 bugs no doubt.
If it is to be it is up to me! |
