Hi
Im having trouble using the infra red features of my Sharp GX-10
When i activate the IR and put it next to my IR port on my pc it finds it and ask's for the disk, ive not installed the modem drivers yet.
I cant send any files to the GX-10 via IR, Has vodafone put a block on recieving via IR?
Anyone help?

I can't receive pics from my T68i via infrared either, I think Voda have put some sort of block on it...
If you have any luck, let me know
thanks.. |

Me too i cant send nething from my t68 to GX10. it just says failure to send the sound or picture. neway how ru guys finding the fone? i think its ok but the thing that annoys me is the way u fone someone and it always phones the number u put as no.1 in the phone book. i do like voda live and downloading java games and poly ringtones though. the pictures are not too good either... not as good as 7650 neway...prob get P800 when it comes out |

Im more than pleased with my phone, the calendar is a bit crap but ill probs download a java one. I think £5 a game is a ripp off and im not getting any off vodafone. I have 2 gripes, 1) the infra red thing, 2) no GPRS data counter (Cant tell when ive used my 1MB!!)

Vodafone Live! service is free till February!
you can confirm that at you local Vodafone store.
The Irda has been "firewalled" to just allow 'modem' data traffic
Network release codes will be released in November 2003. Lets hope someone cracks it before then |

It's charged by both data sent & received.
Does anyone know if the alarms on the GX-10 will work when the phone is off. This is something I really like about Nokias and my first impressions are that the GX-10 doesn't sound the alarm if the phone is off (boo hoo!). This is a very handy when you're travelling as you can leave a separate alarm clock behind. |

I'm pretty sure the alarm goes off even when there is no battery. *shrug* GOtta try but a bit too lazy to switch my phone off and wait for 1 min right now |

On the subject of GX10 and infrared, it goes like this.
It only has the protocols for data transmission installed and not the protocols required for such things as voice, pictures, or sound. This has been left out by Sharp and not Vodafone as everyone would think.
The alternative is of course Vodafone Live which costs money. I have a gx10 myself and wish I would have got a gd87, this has the above mentioned protocols installed and works fully.
Hope this answers your questions.
