    smooth-because nobody wants to sell their E398.Its better than it's immediate competitors,the K700 and the 6230.

            To lola

            Trans flash is the only card it takes.

            You can disable the lights on the side for everything, eg. incoming call, sms, rythimic, ect.

            It can only riabrate first then ring doesnt do both at the same time.

            Bluetooth speed i have no idea, It takes around 20-25 mins for 4meg to be transfured from my friends k700i to my e398.

            Hope this helps.

                  To ^_^x or anyone who could help: Does the E398 support any other card besides the trans-flash card ? How fast is a transfer via Bluetooth ( kbps ) ? ive heard that the phone vibrates first n then starts ringing (vibration continues)... does'nt start at the same time. Is it true ? Do the lights at the side of the phone alwayz stay active, or can be disabled ( dont want it to come on ) ? Thanx in advance ...

                              To Canderous-If you have the software, it's pretty easy...but you do it at your own risk. I haven't flashed mine yet because I don't want to void the warranty...and I haven't had the time to go to the service center to have it flashed so I'm still stuck with good old 34R.

                              To Shah-you need to put it into the SD adapter, then you can insert it into the card-reader.

                                Should I have my SIM and Trans flash card out of my phone when flashing?

                                To shah A SD card reader will work as long as u have the SD card adapter that came in the case with the Trans flash card.

                                  What type of card reader needed to read the 64MB transflash?..Does the transflash card need to be attached to card adapter before inserted to card reader?

                                    Just got this phone yesterday.Really impressive!It's worth every cent.

                                    Now I have been hearing things about the 95R firmware and I wanna get it.Between going to the service center and getting them to do it for me,or doing it myself,which one is better?I guess the obvious choice is going to the service center.

                                      Now if someboday could tell me where or how to get some games for this phone here in .au that Optus has access to, i will be forever in debt to you. any advice, please email me at radiobirdman@gmail.com

                                      oh one other hint thats useful for this phone (and others), when you go to sites like MyMoto and play the sample of the MP3 realtones atc, instead of paying $$ for them, just go fish the file out of your Temporary Internet Files/Opera cache/wherever on your computer, then rename the file and upload with MPT. i did this with a System of a Down tone just for kicks and it worked a treat! FREE!!

                                        for those having trouble with MP3s and Mobile Phone Tools...
                                        you need to remove the transflash card when using MPT so it's really only good for uploading small MP3 files to use as ringtones etc that fit in the phone's 5MB memory.
                                        for uploading MP3s to the TransFlash card, i recommend getting an SD card reader and using that to up the MP3s to the card. this is very fast (less than 1 minute to fill 64MB of MP3s), you don't have the 3MB limit, white-space is allowed (the fileneames can be whatever format you want, but keep them short) and if you know what your doing the whole exercise of removing phone from your case, removing battery + TF card, loading MP3s with your new SD card reader and putting back together can be done in
