i've heard many ppl complaining about not having video recording, if you think about modding it to i398, i say don't do that just for the video stuff! why so, simple after a while some e398 got their transflash card burned, and the video recording is just 10 seconds at a good quality an 50 sec at a poorer one! i myself own a e398 and i'm fuully satisfied with it, payed 100$, unlocked! you cand send/receive videos by bluetooth, i have some on my e398 made with SE P910 and the quality is not so good! i made some videos with a sony cybershot s40 (30 fps) and sent them to my phone as mp4, the quality is brilliant! better buy a camera and this phone!!! that's a deal!

    Well i am also looking to buy a E-398 {but due to no video is some thing that is stoping me }
    can any body tell me what type of simple upgrade can help me to record video
    As Motorola ROKR E1 is almost identical to the E398
    Why we can not upgrade E-398 to make it similar to Motorola ROKR E1 with single update?
    And How risky it will be for me{as i never have done it before}?

      I can't figure out how to change the ring tone from a midi to an mp3 and I can't figure out how to change my incoming text alert from what it is. Can anyone tell me how to get a song to play as ring tone .. if possible .. not as a midi? If it has to be midi, how do I make it one, so that I can get it to play when the phone rings? I've had this phone for about a year now and it's seriously frustrating. I'm thinking about trading it in to something more straight forward. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

        this phone is a great thing..such like the 3d stereo speaker, the mp3 player, an external memory also the clear screen..but it cames with a few poorness too like the bad way to charge (you will find it about 3 days after buy it new) and the screen is good but in some case u must turn ur phone into some position cause the screen looks dark, the bluetooth is good but it only for a 60s second lifetime, after it you must turn it on again and again..maybe i will buy for a new moto like e680i

              hey does anyone know how to turn my mp3 songs to a ringtone (if the mp3 songs are in the expandable memory card) so i can play the songs through these massive speakers. I know i can only do this if the songs is in the phones internal memory. But this only allows me to store one song and that's crap.

                1. Why there is no delivery report when we send sms in the sms feature?
                2. Why the battery get easily hot?
                3. When we play music,the cellphone vibrate hard,is it dangerous?

                  ok....so dear paul ...if by "continously" you mean playing without reapeat ....you just have to create a list . this option is in the bottom of the "sounds" menu.

                      Boys...enough with these complaints ....well ...the charger and the battery have no problem at all... the key of solving this problem comes with the mmc : this phone is kind of old technology binded with new softwere . if the mmc is not corectely arranged in the mmc slot ...the softwere kinda fails and all sorts of problems appear: bad link with computer,poor bluetooth conection,bad charging...if you have any more problems of this kind(battery-charge) just open the back protecive case , pull the batery out (carefull) and gently push the mmc in,till it`s stif(without opening the mmc slot ). it worked for me and for my and all of my friends . good Luck !!

                        to all those that have this phone.have your had this problem sometimes you can't charge the phone. i went to the service centre they solve the problem and say it will be working find. after a few days the same problem started i went there again and they fix it. i visted the service centre 6 times all the same problem. i can't take it any more and traded it for another phone. and the best thing is that i only used it for 8 months and never drop it before.

                                    well so far so good...i do like its sound quality but there are something that i don't like abt this phone...
                                    1st.. is there any ways that i can set my ringtones using the mmc memory instead of the phone memory...this becoz da phone memory is too small and only can store limited songs...
                                    2nd.. each process is kinda slow....where i need to wait for a few seconds...dat really bother me when it comes to speed smsing...
                                    3rd .. i dun really like its camera performance not really clear...
                                    finally....da charger!! everytime i charge there's problem with da connection between the charger and my phone...it loose easily where i need to press it from time to time in order to tighten it back...(worst case scenario)
                                    hope u guys can solve all these problems for me..
                                    thanks...
