Here is what I do ,

When bought my first P800 I thought of this idea until today it worked perfectly fine with me.

When I buy a new Pseries, I always load the following to the phone first.

Contacts, Calendar entries, Internet, GPRS dettings and other vital information for me.

Then I immediately make a full back up of the phone . Now the back up containes only the vital information . Then I load 3rd party applications and other stuff . If there is a problem with my phone's behaviour , I automatically restore the FIRST clean and fresh Backup, and load the other applications manually later.

By doing this you will guarantee that you don't back up any damaged, faulty files.

GH337, GH388, GH 688, SH 888, P800, P900, P910 and now P990i and P1i and HTC Touch Pro

I like the idea but it also means that you will have your old contacts/calender entries when you use your clean backup...

On a new FW or a new P series phone, I always overwrite/transfer my contacts, email, calendar & to do's from Outlook. It ensures that there are no bugs or compatibility issues from older phones or firmwares. The only snag is that the contact pictures get garbled, i have to in put each and every single picture again.

I also take the pain of reinstalling every single third party application again. All settings are of course set again and lastly the media files are always in my external memory so it's not hard to transfer the files using my laptop.

IMO it's the longer but cleaneer way of moving data.

What are?




For some some reason, you seem give more credit to people that appear one day at esato just to talk bad about the P990, than to me me, Jah, Sleepyhead, Joel, Johnex, Spawn, etc





Your having a laugh mate you still have not explianed why my complaints are excuses? If anyone here as much as mentions there may be problems with the P990 you jump up an down on them so why would I give you credit? people come here for information, not a hard time.

The facts are plain to see, the P990i does have many faults and should not have released the phone with them unresolved sorry if you dont like it but it is the truth.

I am an fan and have had their products since the T68, but I am not blind to their faults and I refuse to applaud expensive products that do not work as advertised. I did not pay for my P990i and I am mightly glad too, but I do feel sorry for guys and girls who have spent hard earned cash on a "flagship" phone only to be let down so poorly by so I will not keep quite when it is plain the thing is not right.

We are the customers if think we are happy then they will not change! and I am far from happy.
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot.

Very well said nitrofan. Its been a year we waited for the SE flagship phone and now we wait for the stable firmware. I managed to get rid of the 990i after a month of mix emotions when using it but will consider getting it back when it does what it suppose to do.

What truth? Yours? You choose to give more credit to people that dont like the p990 vs many people that like it, and call that The Truth? Forget my opinion, take Jah's for example - he is a power user, like most of us, but he has experience with lots of other smartphones at the same time...does he consider P990 flawed ? and his opinion has much more value than yours or mine, for an independent observer. Anyway, you be happy bitching the p990 has a living, i will be happy using it and, btw, posting from it every single night (its so bad, how do i manage to do it without crashing bla bla bla lol)

To the people that are complaining, if you dont like it, get another phone

why all the fighting, i thought this forum was going to tell me when ne fw was out not flood me with silly bickering about whether or not the phone is good, at this moment in time i do not care about what you think about the phone, if oyu want to post your comments about what you think about the phone then do it in the appropriate thread, this one is about latest fw and the release of, not bugs in the fw...

Anyway now that I have said my bit I would like to introduce myself to the forum, i have been reading it for quite some time now but this is the first time i have ever felt like posting to it.
