Hi,
Not sure if anyone had asked this question before. I bought my O2 Mini in Singapore five weeks ago.
Like most of the features except that the voice/sound quality is very bad from the internal ear speaker - I could hardly hear the coversation except if the surrounding is very quite. I bump up the volumn but only make the sound/voice up with distortion. The O2 handfree earpiece did help a little bit but the sound quality for phone conversation is not so clear as well. The ear piece is fine for MP3 playback.
BTW, I did enable microphone AGC but it did not improve anything.
One thing thou, my Sony Ericsson bluetooth earpiece work fine with my O2 Mini and its sound/voice quality for phone call is good as well.
Do you think it is a defect for internal ear speaker or voice Codec?
I am planning to send my O2 Mini to Services Center for a check.
You feedback is appreciated.
Thanks,
pc

Got my mini in Feb. Today, discovered that can only use phone when handsfree in connected. Without the handsfree, can't hear nor speak to the person on the other line and vice versa. Any ideas what's wrong? Saves me the trouble of going to the shop/ repair center

My phone freezes sometime when I have meeting reminders or after the "message sent" confirmation. The anvelope icon is sometime still visible too even if I have read all my messages. I have to perform a soft reset whenever that happens and I am afraid doing that too often will cause more probs to my phone. Is anyone having the same problem???? Please help....

You didn't mention if the connection is via the PC's broadband network or thru the GPRS.
Assuming you already have an Internet connection on your PC (dial-up or broadband), connect the Mini to the PC via the USB cable and initiate ActiveSync.
Double click on the Activesync icon on the PC and look at the "PASS THROUGH". It should read as "The Internet".
Once you have initiated a connection, open up Internet Explorer on your Mini and key in the url for google. You should be able to go into google.
Even though you are using the Bluetooth, USB cable or SDIO wifi adapter, you may need to be connected via Activesync before you can connect to the net.
If you are using GPRS, you'll need to follow the instructions by the telco's website. Each telco has a different set of configuration to access their GPRS/MMS service. You'll need to set this first.
Have you configured your phone for GPRS already?

But, if you actually order it from expansys.com.sg, the price is only $1039.95 excluding delivery charges. Check it out at their website.
Not too sure if anyone has ordered anything from Expansys before.....

iz & Fotonutz,
i wanted to buy the o2 mini so much so i go spread virus to all my friends make them like mini so much also.. then we all go together to buy and so will have bargaining power =)
bought at harvey norman. =) my friend (australian) saod that harvey norman can ask for discount if u buy in bulk.. so we went to try out.
mine is paying $50++ per month for 24months.
anyway is 0% interest installments.. no need to one time pay all... can use the money at other things. =)

Mel: So envious...you got it so cheap !
$50 a month is a really good deal!
By the way, which shop did you get it from? Buying 10 at one go with frens is a good idea.
Steve,
To remove the remnants icons of the uninstalled or deleted programs, goto \windows\start menu\Programs and remove it from there. This way is much simpler.
Hope it helps.

Recently been having some problems syncing between 2 computers. THis problem arise after I did backup on one of my PCs (at home), and when I try to sync at Office, it gives me "error 608" which kinda requires me to do hard reset and loose all my stuff? THis is really frustrating as I keep hving to do soft reset a couple of times a day.
Also after sending in my unit for servicing and getting the s/w refreshed, when I intall my Computer Devices SDIO WIFI card, I am unable to configure my wifi networks. Not sure if its becos the WIFI card has died or because of the refreshed s/w.
Anyone got any good suggestion on how to overcome both problems? I'm quite tempted to convert back to Palm OS.

Steve,
Try to remove it from the active sync there. Soft reset it and see if that gets rid of the icons.

o2 mini lover,
Personally, I think it is cheaper to pay in cash as compare to instalment.
I really cant wait for my o2 mini.
