So far, A200 platform for this phone is quite stable (edit: my current fw version is R1EA030- some advice from my past K850i ordeal, if the fw ain't broke, don't update it!!!). My gf and i have been using these phones (silver, mocha brown) for about a month now without any major drama (ref: K850i firmware, also A200).

Been playing a lot of Java games on my phone, no issues with lack of memory.

Photos are fine, but miss my K850i auto focus, can't get good near object shots with W890i.





Light level detector doesn't seem to brighten/darken screen very much, can hardly see the difference.

Battery meter icon inaccurate, same like K850i. Battery life good for me, 3G-off, bluetooth only when needed.

Loudspeaker (in-call) function a bit soft, weird cos the music blares out very loud from both speakers.

generally, the phone memory capacity for numbers far exceeds that of a SIM card, so why not just copy all SIM contacts to phone? Youcan even backup on the M2 card later, makes for easy transfer to other SE phones

Software R1EA033 ... generic

The media player failed to skip the song automatically when the song finish while the fone kepad is locked / screen saver mode.

it displayes the "FIALED" alert. then i must manually skip the song.

That means the media database is corrupt. You must do a rescan by removing the Mē and reinserting it.

This doesn't help.

Beside I think the rescan is done when you remove/add media.

I formated my memory stck and added new media then it skiped a few songs that if failed again.
