I don't want put you off of walkman phones and anyway i am picky when it comes to sound quality. Differences are slight and W890 is a good all round walkman phone with good sound. |

I've read around here somewhere 8 GIG card works OK with it?
BTW: for whoever is asking about the sound quality of this phone - it is excellent – I am using it with the suppied headphones all the time now and the sound is better than my iPod Nano IMHO. |

Antenna ....
It looks like my fones antenna is at the bottom of the fone; which is becoming a problem when i'm in a low signal area because when holding my fone, then my antenna is covered, so i loss signal.
but it works fine in a high coverage.
I remember seeing a notice saying antenna should not be covered when using the fone, but its impossible to not cover it when its in that position. |

Hi..
I heard that updating your phone via SEUS can make the sound louder. Is this true?
Also I visited the SEUS website but w890i is not listed there! Then how have you people updated??
EDIT: Cancel that, I found the W890i listed when I chose my region correctly. It seems earlier I had followed a direct link to SE site to another region.
One more question though:
Is it possible to return back to the earlier version in case something goes wrong? I'm paranoid.. :S

Hi folks
I've bought the mocha version and I notice that the plastic below the 789 keys where the microphone is a different colour to the rest of the front. They upper part is more red than the lower part which is browner. The back is the same colour as the upper part of the front.
Should I change it or are they all like that?
thanks!

Hi all,
Has the Video playback been fixed on the W890i?
I recall it being all out of sync, like the W910i/K850i!

OK, I just tried updating the phone via SEUS.
The SEUS s/w installed fine and everything, but when I press and hold the 'c' key and plug in the usb cable, the New Hardware thingy pops up but then nothing happens.
There is some message 'fatal error' within the new hardware window and I have to close it. 
Near the taskbar a balloon pops up saying 'hardware has been installed but may not work properly'.
Anyone who has updated their phones, could you please help me with this problem? Thank you very much!  |
