I only sync via Motorola phone Tool, for contact, calendar, music, ringtones and etc.. Using the Phone Tool, I can actually direct where the song should go to, either Phone or Memory card and you can even create new folder to store different audios.

      I've not synced directly via Windows Media Player so I won't be able to pin point the problem you were facing, hope the above helps.

        I found yesterday that the album art is only supported on .mp3 files. Not on .m4a or .aac files. What a bummer.

        NOW I HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM :(

        Media library is not refreshing songs on the phone memory. Has this happened to anyone? I transfer songs as I've been doing normally (Memory card mode) and then I tried with Media Sync mode also, but only some of them appear on the media library of the phone. If I put them on the MicroSd car I don't have that problem. :( :( :(

                what do I have to do for my e8 to show the album art ?

                I use .acc files generated on Itunes, and I also use the Itunes id3 tag editor to add album art to my songs when it's needed. I have a new e8 since yesterday and for the love of everything I know I don't know why it doesn't display the album art !!!!!!

                Also, sometimes ( it's happened once yesterday, and once today ), sometimes the player just stops and I can't reproduce any other song unleast I turn off and on my phone again. ( It gives me some error saying that the player is busy or something like that if I try to play another song )

                Finally, how much does the battery lasts for you while playing music ( overall ). I find the duration of the battery quite a let down IMO. I had so many expectations for this phone :( !!

                  If you want to record calls all you need to do is to press and hold the green call button once you are on call. For voice recording go to multimedia then choose voice recording. :)

                            in most cases as i have tried some other brands...more or less, sound quality when listened to headsets are pretty good...

                            but you will feel the difference when you tested it with some amplifiers or with its built-in speakers...

                            N82 has stereo speakers, but it seems not so good when it was attached to amplifiers...well its not really a music phone...se walkman has a good piece of headsets and so good when listened using it, but poor really with built-in speakers...thoguh they might crush my neck to see this post...lol...but they will surely agree it is...coz my have se walkman and still he said it was beaten with my music phone(it is a not so popular branded phone)...tried w230 of motorola...and i say, it has great sound quality using headsets...

I've tested myself, found the Crystal Talk much better but that's my view so if I can get more feedbacks from more people, then it's confirmation instead of opinion. We can then talk with conviction.

                                        when i noticed e8, i really want it, but the high price hinders me from buying, thats why when i heard that em30 is less expensive, that is why im waiting...and should zn5 have good music, then ill settle for zn5, but i guess, em30 serves my budget...coz im planning to sell the other handset...hahaha just to make it to em30...goodluck stu and GOD BLESS you and your family
