that's what i thought..i guess it holds true for all the themes that shows up the title/album/artist of the song you've last played.. |

Was listening to radio today with handsfree kit and noticed that when I plugged the handsfree in the profile was still on the "normal" profile setting and wasnt changing to the "handsfree" profile. Playing around, I noticed in the "handsfree" profile there is an option for devices at the last menu. go to profiles, select handsfree, edit it, go to bottom option. I selected add and there were a few devices listed, so I added the handsfree device to this profile.
Now, when I plug the handsfree kit in, it switches to the handsfree profile automatically. I thought the headset icon was the handsfree icon but actually the handsfree icon is a kinda mp3/phone player icon.
Anyone else experience this or is just how my phone was set up initially by 3.
Cheers, |

Yeah and it's really good. Just like I said before so I done miss the radio. Think Nokia got the radio too but aint sure if it's workin' with cells.

Hi all!
Just found, if using stereo bluetooth headphones SE HBH-DS970
equalizer doesn't work... Very sad:-(
But anyway W850i and stereo bluetooth look and work great together! |

got mine about $90..
one thing i noticed when using the headset or the bluetooth headset..sometimes..when you try to type a number that begins with * and ends with # (in my case *122#)..when you press send, the number is not shown on the screen and you can't send the number you just typed. unless you deleted the characters, the send button will still show on the screen (which means you can't get to menu unless using the shortcuts).
it's confusing i know. |

Hi. Can anybody answer my questions about this phone. Many thanks.
1. Speaker. I have the k800 - is the speaker better? I find the K800 speaker is very tinny and distorted. I am used to the smoother sounding W800 speaker which had better bass.
2. Say you want to fast forward a track/podcast (say 20 mins long or so). Does it do ramped fast forwarding so that it speeds through a 20 min song in a few seconds (like on k800)? Same with video..?
3. I understand it does play/pause on video if you use the media player version and not the file manager video player(same on k800 by the way). Does fast forward work as in point 2 above (as it would on k800).
4. Does it play the same quality of video playback as k800?
5. Some people say it has no dedicated play/pause button but can you answer this - say you are playing a 20 min podcast and pause it or come out of music player - can you go back in and restart it from same spot or would it reset to start? If so this is very poor for a walkman phone - The K800 does this just fine (and has the dedicated buttons).
6. Audio quality - I consider the k800 audio quality (headphone jack through car stereo) to be terrible hence why I am considering getting exchange for W850. The K800 sound compared to my last phone W800 is crippled. Bad dynamics and just terrible overall sound. I take it the W850 sounds much better?
7. Screen quality. Some people say the W850 screen is not as bright as the k800. A recent K800 firmware update reduced the brigtness of its screen in order to save batter life (actually I think it was the 016 PROM update that did it). Are the screens now the same in brigthness/quality?
Thanks. I appreciate all or any answers... I have trawled hundreds of user comments on this phone but not had direct answers to above yet...
