                  Can anybody help me with my i-mate 8502 problem. I did a hard reset and then the screen would not work. It does not go beyond screen alignment. I tried removing the batteries for a few hours, still it does not help. Please help.

                      Just press bottom left(fn)button and immediately press next button(sys). You can see a new screen which contain many buttons. Just check whether phone button is enabled or not(If enabled means the button will be visible in blue color comparing with other disabled button.)

                                Ahh....I forgot to add... Because of the Win Mo operating system, the 8502 comes with the mobile version of Internet Explorer, which really responds to the stylus but not finger commands...

                                So another important add-on is to install either Opera 10/11 or Opera 5 Mini browser software, both of which provide a similar and far better browsing experience, much better text alignment and finger-based page movement/scrolling.

                                  I bought this phone from Expansys almost a year ago for about $100, but only recently have started trying to use it...and make it work for me the way I want... I have a generally good opinion of the phone and its features, but my model has a horrible quality 2 MP camera for some reason that produces very soft, blurry photos.

                                  Other than that, and that may be just some fault with my model, there's a lot to like. My phone came preloaded with Win Mo Pro 6.1. The manufacturer, I-Mate, is out of business, so they're not providing any support or firmware updates. And all the I-Mate customizations were either gone or inactive on my mobile.

                                  The good things about this phone are:
                                  a very crisp and good quality display screen, a small compact size while also having a full QWERTY keyboard, excellent connectivity with quad-band GSM and 3 of 4 3G frequencies (excluding 900), meaning it can access 3G worldwide, very good wifi B/G connectivity. It also connects easily to all my Windows PCs, including Win 7 OS, via MS Activesynch or Windows Mobile Device Center for Win 7. The phone charges and connects via a standard micro USB plug.

                                  But because it's a WinMo 6.1 touchscreen, out of the box, the phone relies heavily on using the two included stylus pens (one and a spare provided) that slide into the body of the phone. I don't personally like using the stylus especially when I'm on the move or out and around. But there are solutions.

                                  I did a couple of things to make the phone work better for me, including installing the SPB shell software, which overlays the WinMo OS and allows the phone to function much better via finger touch commands to the screen. The software doesn't come with much documentation, but once you figure it out, it's highly customizable and allows you to basically create either 3 or 5 home screens that you can access via horizontal finger slides...

                                  So I set up mine with the center home page as containing the key icons/functions I want, and then, the two screens to the right of that with one for music/audio functions/programs and the other for video/photo functions. I then set up the two other screens to the left of my home screen, one for phone utilities/commands and the other for other misc. programs I've installed.

                                  I'm a big guy with big hands, so the keyboard with its relatively small and closely space keys is a bit tough to use, though I can if I really try and the keyboard itself has a good and responsive feel. So instead, I installed the Resco keyboard software that gives you a highly customizable on-screen keyboard that you can use via finger or stylus....

                                  So after a fair amount of fiddling and adding on some extra software, it's a pretty sweet, good looking, good functioning phone. My only real irk is about the camera, and I'm afraid that's likely to be a lost cause.
