I have a question for you k750i users. When you search for a name in your phonebook, can you search with more than just the first letter? For example, search for "BO", not just "B".

Cause in my phone, I can only search for the first letter. And I just updated my firmware, but it seems like it did not update the phonebook. However, I've seen some other users with K750i's who can search for a name using more than just the first letter.

I currently have the R1L002 firmware

Any feedback would be appreciated

ouch, thats bad news. I hope there's a way to enable the multi-character search feature on my phone (i got it in the philippines), seeing as it really is a pain to navigate through 400+ contacts without it.

Dude, this has been mentioned to ad nauseam in other threads. Use the search function PLEASE.

klorin already addressed your query. you probably have the china version of the fw and thus no multi-character search. you need the euro version.
I love you loko_loko - swoosh
