Hi there ppl!
my greetings to the community

I've recently bought a w890i, which has the default installation firmware, with the following details:
R1EA030
EROM: 1200-4341
SEMCBOOT R6S013

Now here's what i came up with while looking around with the phone in the first hour:
from wherever menu u are, or in the main idle-onhold screen, go to multimedia. Now select to play a song or a movie. Before it starts playing or while playing, select the horizontal view on the phone. Now whenever u want (while playing or after stopped playing) click back. That's it. from now on, all ur multimedia menu will appear on black and white, no colors, no themes, no nothing..

is there any better firmware to upload, cause i havent tested yet. and if i load a new firmware, will i lose my guarantee?

thx for ur time,
kknan

That problem does not exist in your phone due to different firmware... I don't know if this is common W890 firmware bug, but sure updating the firmware may solve this issue.

Where in the phone can one get the firmware info?

Been using for a month now and still can't find it!

Thanks!
