who is "moaning"?! read the messages first before you make your annoying comments. i never said that the p990i's camera is crappy or insufficient enough for my needs. |

Another very annoying P990i problem:
I use handwrite recognition when fill short forms (f.e. new contact).
Unlike P910, P990 quite often jumps out of current field if I draw outside it instead of new letter typing. 
Sorry if repost. |

Anyone noticed that the audio in video-recordings sometimes get a bad sync? It's falling behind quit a bit sometimes.. I have had this problem on some films I've taken but not all...
Anyone else who has experienced it?

After writing a sms/text at FC, I'll go to More > Send to send my sms/text.
However, it looks like there are two versions while sending a sms/text.
Version 1) It will stay in the sms application and the Sent tab will appear.
Version 2) From the sms application, it will go back to the mainpage then the Sent tab will appear.

Don't know in what discussion about p990 i read about it but someone had problems with Disc2Phone and called SE-support that said the program didn't support p990..
They don't know what they are talking about at SE-support. It works perfectly... all you have to do is to make sure the USP-setting is to "filemanaging" and not "Phonemanaging" (or something like that... I have it in swedish.. don't know exacly what it says in english.)

Someone mentioned the fact that there's no C key to hold down when doing a SEUS update, if you remove the flip.
Personally i think the phone looks a lot better and is easier to use without the flip, so i removed mine the day i got it (most of the useful apps are FO only anyway) . But i hit the same problem when i tried to use SEUS without the flip, no C key.
After a bit of trial and error, i found with the flip removed, you hold down the @ key on the right side of the phone instead of C. Then SEUS will work fine. 
hopefully that'll prove useful for other flipless P990i users.
I do have a question though, does anyone know how to reach the 'status' screen on a flipless p990i? With the flip it's More - Status, from the FC home screen. I cannot find it in FO/flipless mode, and it's pretty useful to see the free memory when trying to work out why application X or Y won't load up properly.
If anyone knows that one, do share, thanks. |

got mine today,few bugs I've encountered so far
EVERY time I receive a message , it comes up with an error message and closes the messaging app. and it doesn't display the little envelope icon, so if I don't hear the message alert,I've got no idea I've received a message.
also,I am unable to change the background on flip open/closed.
and the phone has restarted a couple of times to "improve performance" |

Hi
Ive just got my p990i on Thursday. First impressions I loved it.
I walked out the shop and tried to make a call. The thing froze. After a while thinking Id done something the only option I was left with was to take the battery out to reset it. It crashed everytime I tried to use it. So I took it back to the shop and they gave me a new handset.
2 days on with my new handset I have all the same problems. The phone crashes pretty much everytime I look at the thing. I dont seem to recieve all calls or sms messages and I dont get any warnings when I do get messages. The camera always switches into video mode without my say so. It constantly shuts down to as it claims "improve performance". IN fact the list goes on and on......... Im now back with my old nokia
When the p990i works I love the phone so I dont want to bin it straightaway and get something else or to trust that Ive just managed to get 2 shitty handset within 2 days.
Any advice welcome... |

Anyone else having trouble connecting their Mac to their P990 through USB? I set the USB device connection on the P990i to File Transfer mode but when I plug it into the USB port of either my G4 laptop or my G5 desktop, I don't see the usual memory stick view pop up on my desktop.
Is there something else I need to do at either end or is this a known problem?

We.. you can reach the status-info but by some strange reason there isn't any info about the free memory in that when you got flip open.
In tools, press "tools" at the top. In the dropdown you can choose "system info" or something like that... (I use the swedish setting so I don't know exacly... you'll figure it out.)
But as I said... no info about free memory there... but everything else seems to be there.

My P990 has a bug where it restarts if the wireless access point its connected to is switched off. It also does this if the access point its connected to goes out of range. I've doen the software update, but it doesn't seem to have resolved this problem.
Additonally, the phone seems to freeze when the flip is opened in certain situations. For example, if I'm viewing a picture and open the flip to view the picture full screen, the phone will often freeze.

I have a problem with the alarm! It seems to save the last time as well as the new time.
For example.. in sunday I had the alarm at 10:30 to wake up.
I changed that for this morning to ring at 8:00... and it did.
But it also did go off at 10:30!!!
Have had the same problem the other way! And then it's really annoying... When it go off at 8:00 when you want it to go off a couple of hours later!
Damn SE with these small bugs.. Don't want to return the whole phone for a problem like this.. It would take ages for them to see whats wrong.. Since then problem can only appear once a day.
