Was: f**K SE and thier god damn P800!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sonyericcson employees read!!!!!!!!!!
i wrote the title of this thread becuase...

1. i want to address a VERY SERIOUS issue me and a lot of other P800 users have had.

2. because SE really pissed me off (again).

you all remember this thread

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=18354&forum=35#post240500

well i got it back and it WAS working fine until it died on me again

i overcharged it by accident again (same last as last time). but it was still working when i woke up (phew!) in the afternoon a friend sends to my POP3 email and im 80% downloading until i get a voice call. i finish the call and hang up. the P800 starts to be real slow and then freezes although it was still downloading up to 84%?!?!?!?!??! WIERD. i turn it off and then on but the phone becomes very very very very very very very very slow. so i turn it off and on again and the phone wont start. not even a start up animation (not like last time). only vibration alert as usual when you turn it on. 1 out of 10 times the phone lights up and there is a start up animation with sound. but again this is very rare

now 1 of my problems is that its going to take me at least 1 month (or however long the war takes) to get the phone fixed becuase of the stupid war. and im stuck in a country that thinks SMS is a new invention, and make fun of you if you have a phone :| plus they dont have the P800 yet (even if the US did have it i would rather get it fixed overseas thean in the US).

i think i have a manufcturer defect. i had R1B and it got messed up. i updated to R1D and it messed up too. so whats the newest SW and what are the improvments? what about those UIQ 2.1 rumors??

WARNING TO ALL CURRENT/FUTURE P800 OWNERS

DONT OVER CHARGE THE BATTERY. AND DONT USE ALMOST ALL THE PHONE MEMORY (WHERE IS THE 128 DUO SE?)

THESE 2 THINGS IS WHAT WAS COMMON IN THESE 2 SITUATIONS (I HAD LESS THAN 1 MB IN PHONE MEMORY)

i guess i still have my T68m to count on and never die on me (hopfully )

by the way i still love SE but i think you agree with me that its gone too far on their priemer phone and still not solving the problem

it's a good thing i changed my mind on getting that phone. i would've wasted my cash. too bad a rap sheet for a high end phone.
if you don't have something nice to say, don't say something nice.

well I haven't had a single problem with my P800 and I have most all the memory used up. And I charge it at night and don't take it off the charger until I wake up, or sometimes I leave the house. Still no problems. You just have bad luck dude.

How do you overcharge your phone?

Mine is always in the cradle when I don't use it...sometimes it has been in the cradle for 48 hours or more, without any use.

I've had the phone for 3 months now, and don't have any problems at all. So I think you have just been unlucky.

Yep, mine has been perfectly ok too. You cannot overchrge your phone. If that was true then you would not be able to leave it in the cradle while you're working at your PC! And SE would most definately put something in the manual to warn us.

Does overcharging a phone really exist? I charge my phones (p800, n7650, and t68i) overnight and dont get problems. Although installing trial versions of programs usually slows my phones down. I learn that the hardway when i installed lots of shareware games in 7650. The system crashed and i had to do a master reset. Took me all day to get my contacts inorder

mrj82,

Please becareful when you get close to using up all your internal memory. Once you go over the limit (max memory), your phone may refuse to boot up since there is no hard reset routine on the phone, yet.

Just a word of caution..

I don't think overcharging the phone or running it with less that 1mb memory will be causing this.. Im sure youve read posts about the small file created on the phone to stop it running out of memory.. what would be the point in that if it wasn't sufficient?

Maybe you should look elsewhere for the fault - have you been using the same SIM card on both the dodgy handsets? Are there any dodgy sms's or other corrupt entries on there?

Just a suggestion.. but i also "over charge" mine every night and have done since I bought it.

I think that the real problem is not the P800,but the poor support of SE in some countries.
Naar,I live in a country that is the same like you.Here SMS is a real innovation.Because you have a faulty device, you should be able to get it replaced very fast.Because they took your money quite fast when you bought it, right?But they don't do it for you.Because you live in a country where SE service is alomost inexistent.
I had a similar problem here,in my beloved country.I went to a SE service center and asked for a firmware upgrade.They said to me that nobody had such claims before and refused to make me the upgrade.I was really pissed off.
Sorry for you.We have no alternative because we where unlucky to be born in these nice countries.

How do you overcharge it? I often have my phone in the cradle when not using it.

Havent had a single problem with mine, except some (<5) "screen of deaths".


It sounds that you´re having a really bad luck with your phone!!
Admit that when it works as its supposed to its great!?

Good Luck Naar - dont give up, have faith!!

A similar thing happened to me when I overfilled the memory...
As the ir send went on and it was nearly complete... My memory was filled up... The phone got really slugish... Nearly a complete hangup...
I turned it of.. Then on. No luck. I beeped and vibrated... I took out the battery... Then put it back in and turned on the phone. Same thing.. But this time I decided to wait it out... After a very long time it actually started up.. But it was very slow. I figured it had to do with me fillling up the memory so I deleted something and it was back to normal...
I'm saying this since you were in the middle of a download...
