Ericsson T39m |

Hi everyone!
I just bought my new T39m... I switched on it from a very good Nokia 6210. It was a rare one! You know, I had the fw 5.27 (the one that crashed to all of the users many times) and I didn't go over-loading it for a new one!!! Never ever crashed!!! Can you get this? So I switched over to this Eric T39m because it has GPRS, Bluetooth 'n stuff! There are some things I miss in this phone, that the Nokia had...
1.) Delivery report with numbers - why doesn't the Eric "send back" the delivery like a SMS message with the recipient's name and number included?
2.) Why the f*** is it impossible to create a folder for your downloaded pictures, and save more pictures in your phone?
3.) Why can't you send your Background pictures through SMSs?
Thanx for you help,
Stuffman |

You know, what you're experiencing right now is called nokia-withdrawal syndrome.
I have gone through that so don't worry to much, it's just a phase we all have to go thru
I remember when my T39 was still new, and I get very disappointed often with the features, only to realize that things are done differently with these phones.
ahh ... enligtenment

I switched from being a Nokia boy thru and thru to my T39.
Was also disappointed at first, and thought i'd never get used to this thing, but over time and patience, it's the best thing i could've done.
One thing i'm still not happy about is the speed of text imput... but then again, i think this is a problem that everyone has... |

Gowin:your right, Nokia-withdrawal syndrome is hard to cure. im also using a 6150 & a 3310 as a backup & 2nd phone.

'Never had that syndrome. The first time I saw the T39 and read its feature, it was already love at first sight.
(Or is it because I hated my 5190 so much!?) |

Gowin's right. Was a nokia user for 7 years. Things are just done differently on an ericsson. In a few weeks you'll realize that ericsson does things better. Just play around with the phone and you'll discover the wonders it brings. Now if only the phone could text and handle messages faster, the t39 would be the perfect phone. Had mine for 3 weeks and i'm loving it more everyday. Know if only someone could help me surf on my laptop through gprs...

Well, i have a t39 and the only complain i have about it is in the SMS department. Perhaps it's the habit of having a nokia (4 prior nokia phones) i can't seem to find the function to save a phone number when that person sms me. The dictionary doesn't add unless it's a word longer than the one before. Does anyone encounter this or am i the only one?
Other than that, everything's peachy! Love the battery life, love the bluetooth and love the looks of the phone.

Redwings,
Just scroll through the SMS until the number you want is highlighted and press yes. then scroll down to save # (where # is the number you highlighted). It will say saved to add contact menu. go to phonebook>add contact. enter the details (name) then scroll to the type of number (eg home, mobile, etc.) where you want to store the number, hit yes, then left, then scroll to unsaved numbers and pick the number you want to be saved.
It's a little complicated but at least it can be done.
About the T9, we just have to live with it. It's admitted on this board that nokias sms writing capability is far from ericssons. It's a small price to pay for a phone with everything |

It doesn't have everything, unfortunately.
But for me, it's the best phone with the most balanced features available right now. Even the T68's color screen doesn't tempt me, or the promise of MMS.
The T39 would have been perfect if they can improve its SMS user-friendliness (including the T9), the rest of the "features" would be mere eccentricities
Could this be done via a firmware upgrade? (I wish.) |

Jhermano,
Thanks, guess it's a small sacrifice to make for the other features. Great tip.
Does this happen on the T68 too? Am thinking of getting it...either that or the Nokia 7210.....

Well said GOwin. It seems like the T39 has almost been forgotten on this site. Nice to hear some solid T39 owners. |
