I own the SE 790a (GSM 850 / 1800 / 1900) which is the North American version of the 800i. Can I use it in the Phil? Thanks

[topak]

yes you can

[pogipogi0]

any upgrade for having chu-in chinese text input for this phone?

 

i love this fone!

[Brownman88]

Thanks topak...

Is it ok without the 900 band, drawbacks of north american tri-band in the phil???

[topak]

well 1800 will be your only usable band here but you should be ok. malas mo nalang if you find yourself in an area with only 900 available!

i had this fone since august last year,, never had the chance of exploring it yet,, but the usual usage, its great... now i want to know if SE K800i can use mig33??? anybbody?

[deftsociety]

i had it figured out,,,this mig33 thing!... now m thinking,, nobody pala is on this page... hehehe,,, knock2x!

i have one and i think it's just great. it's an excellent evolution of the K750i with a very high-end feel to it in terms of assembly quality and implementation of its features.

 

one feature that wasn't improved from the K750 tho is the video recording quality. it's not bad by any means but it was not brought up to W900 standards. but the emphasis of SE for this model is still images. there is speculation that they are reserving the top quality video recording for a different model. but if you don't really record that much video, then it's no big deal.

 

playing video is very good tho.

 

the only complaint i have is that i'm getting impatient for the larger memory sticks to arrive because of the new format (M2). the largest right now is 1GB although the 2GB stick should be released by the end of the year.

 

there are a lot of comprehensive reviews of the phone on the net. you can start by checking this one out:

Jurassic nga video nito, pero pansin ko mas malinaw sya ng konti kapag kumukuha ka ng vid naka 50% zoom ka..

Download the Update Service software first then it'll automatically install on your PC. Run the software then follow the instructions you'll see on the screen.

 

Here's the link for the Update Service software:

 

Update Service Software

 

yep ok sheila...got the link...maybe you can further explain this to me?

after downloading the software and opening it for the install

i get to the instructions until where you are given the procedure of

installing the software...

 

but first it gives this 5-step detail on shutting down the phone and

removing the SIM and then plugging the usb cable and then opening it

again...

 

 

no problem there...but after doing this, why does it not continue to the install?

 

it keeps asking to repeat the process (which i do) until i just basically lost interest...

 

tried updating through the internet but it keeps saying the software is current...duh???

or the same "device management interrupted...etc, etc...

 

[bukn0y]

1. remove the simcard

2. press the C (remember do not remove it until you plug the cable)

1. remove the simcard

2. press the C (remember do not remove it until you plug the cable) - ah i see...press then plug...ok will try it...thanks buknoy!

[topak]

to clarify: hold down the 'C' key, then insert the cable into the phone and do not release the 'C' key until you are instructed to by the Update Service.
