If SMS msgs are stored in the phone or on the SIM card is a flexible option. Your operator has most likely decided that all msgs must be stored on the SIM instead in the phone.

I must say alot of you don't noe this phone well... this phone supports transflash memory card not mmc ! and i can find 128mb simply at any motorola shops btw i can store up to 100 messages not 15-20... and SE K700i is far too lousy for comparison the radio in that phone have to be used only with the headset(as an antenna)this phone have an accessory called "FM stereo headset" too...This phone is the best!!!E398 RULEZ...

Hi I read somewhere that you can store other files on the Sandisk card as well. Although the phone wont read it the pc will. So if u wanna copy a file from a pc under 64mb u should be able to use this phone

Got this phone a week or so ago. Was getteing frustrated because it is not very user friendly. I cannot use voice dialing without having to alsmost scream and more often than not it picks it a wrong phone no.
I still have to use the rhythm light. it ikeeps turning off automatically.
I have T-mobile USA service and cannot download ringtones from them since it is not a t-mobile supported phones.
It still have to know how to download mp3 files...

Dear Moto,
I just buy my E398,black-silver metal striped.
Model & color is very match with my taste.
but why FM-radio is not include as "built-in"? if that so, this E398 is complete mobile exactly.
And Question, is the 64MB memory card can be expanded ?

I would sugest you take your phone in about the battery issue, I have a E398 and other than the first charge mine is fully charged in approximately 3 hours. As for the ringtone changing when you change a theme, a theme is a wallpaper, screensaver & ringtone so if you apply a theme all three gets applied, but you can easly customise your themes.
Here is a site where I get my thmes & other content www.mototone.co.uk you just need to register first.

the battery takes at least 5-6 hours to b fully charged..its not like nokia where it takes only 1-2 hours to charge
as for the 1 type of num thing..i think u can change the contact under phone memory then u can do more stuff there.
besides downloaded wallpaper..u can jz load in pics into the hp through the usb cable,so any pics can b as wallpaper.that's what i like bout it.not like nokia.
and for the ringtones..i think u gotta cut a portion of the mp3 that u wanted and put it under hp memory.that can be done through the mobile phonetools.
other than that..the phone is great.its loud and funky..so rock on!!

Must read for evryone.All owners are requested to read carefully and give your expert views....please ........
I purchased this set 3 days back . I wanted to go for K700 previously but due to loud and surround sound mp3 ringtones and 64mb capacity i got this one. I conclude that following are the drawbacks --->
1. phonebook contains only 1 type of number at a time .should have been more like SE or nokia and should have been expandable when 70 mb is avlbl
2. Battery (maybe due to new) is acting strange. I have charged for atleast 4-5 times for 8-12 hrs but only once it got "fully charged" message. on charging , out of 3 bars only 1 keeps on blinking . when disconnected 3 bars appear but drains very fast. do anyone know why this is happening ?????????
3.downloaded pictured appear very small and do not fit full on the screen .
4.mp3's which are stored on mmc have to be stored on phone memory to set as ring signal which is very small 4 mb only .it's frustrating to move each time.
5.sms capacity is very very less. It sucks bcoz even after having 70 mb you can store only 15-20.
6.Themes though loaded in by company are good but only 3 are there out of which only 1 is worth keeping . Also when themes are changed ring tone is changed.
7. I used T610 earlier and could load ample of themes from net for free but I did not find any theme or skins for this model.could it be bcoz it's new entry or I am not aware . Puhhhhhhhhhhlease someone advise as I am really bored of preloaded ones.
8. Camera is fairly good vga camera and the screen resolution is also v crisp and good even in sunlight.far better than T610 but I notice a flaw here . The pictures viewfinder is only 75% when shot , secondly when stored it is viewed blackened . To view it properly the phone has to be tilted at angle to see clear view and full colors brightness.
Lastly when pictures attached to phonebook, during incoming call the photo size is very small i.e thumbnail only . in this case the T610 pic size was better.
thanks in advance and waiting . u r also requested to mail if possible .

I have some questions for Motorola E398 users:
1) Does this phone has sms report (delivered/ pending)?
2) Can u add a picture from memory to a contact entry ?
3) Can u erase all the contacts on the sim with 1 touch? Or move ALL (not 1 by 1) the contacts from sim to phone memory?
thanks in advance
