Just got this phone like five days ago and I'm enjoying its features; despite its not so long lasting battery time.

Installed the WMA 1.2 player via my infrared transfer from my computer to the X800. My laptop has a infrared port. Once the program is downloaded into the phone it is instantly recognized as an installer. Quite a good thing for a Symbian OS phone to perform that action.

Clicked 'Yes' to install the program and thats it. Transfered my necessary music files via the MiniSD Adapter. Transferring songs via infrared will allocate it to the phone's internal memory before it is moved to the SD card; which you have to perform by yourself.

    Im starting to like this phone more and more by playing with it. I just install the smartmovie demo and I just have to say wow. Im suprise how the quality of the converted video was. The downside of this phone is that the battery doesnt last very long. I had a full charge and only last 3-4 hours using it. It last 22 hours when I left it alone. Im not sure if that is right or not because this is my first cell phone. The video camera is okay not clear but ok for a cell phone. I give a 8.5/10

          Dustin,

          1) Install your driver disc which comes with the package.

          2) Connect your phone with the USB cable to your PC. (See manu booket for detail)

          3) Go "Manu > Connect > USB" and activate the connection.

          4) Start the porgramme

          5) Download and unzip the WMplayer which I have already posted the link below.

          6) It is a *.sis file, click on it and follow the step to install into your phone, not card.

          For the rest, please read the posts.

              Dear friends,

              You can actually create RANDOM RINGTONES on WMA Plus 1.2 and OGGplayer.

              1. Rename one of your mp3 or ogg file into "random_ringing_tone.mp3.../ogg" in your PC and upload to your X800.

              2. Keep all the tones into one folder - "Digital sounds".

              3. Open your player and add all the ringtones you wanted in your playlist.

              4. Go to "Menu > Setting > Ringtones" and slecet any profile you want, then choose random_ringing_tone.mp3.../ogg as your ringing tone. And try to make a call to yourself and you will hear different ringtones each call.

              5. Go out and show off to your friends :)

                Tetsu : Open WMA Plus 1.2 and add to the playlist.

                will: If it only happen on ringtone, how about keytone? If still no sound on the keytone that means the speaker is dead.

                william: First of all, before you open the programme...have you go to "Menu > Connect > USB" in your X800 to activate the connection? I do counter this kind of problem and need to replug a few times.

                  Hi Eugene,
                  The port connection is fine as indicated by hte mRouter. But the application is set to be offine even with my phone connected. And the program window is blank with only the tool bar on top. And the tool bar doesn't allow me to do anything except for help!!!

                    I just recieved the x800 from plemix on ebay, and for some reason I cannot hear any of the preset ringtones or any ringtone at all. I am wondering if this happens to be a defect? when I choose to play the ringtone selected it will indicate that the song is playing yet I hear nothing but when I stop it from playing I hear sound for a split second and thats it. is something wrong with my phone?

                        Hi Eugene,
                        I just got this phone this morning and have install the WMA Plus 1.2. When I open the application on the x800 and try to find new files it doesnt pick the mp3 that I have in the digital sound folder.

                          william,
                          1. Make sure your phone is set to the right com port. See manu for detail.
                          2. WMA Plus 1.2 can set MP3 as ringtone, but UltraMP3 doesn't. I have already posted the programme in here.
                          3. www.download.com
                          4. MP3Trim is a good software to do the job

                            4 questions:
                            1. problem with x800 and USB cord: I updated the driver that comes with the phone and then connected it with USB. But after detection by winXP, the program cannot run.
                            2. Which conversion program for MP3 conversion is better? WMA Plus 1.2 or UltraMP3? Where to downlown them?
                            3. Do I need a compression program for that? Where to download it?
                            4. Any program for trimming a song for ringtone? Where to download it?
                            Thanks!

                                unsure,

                                Ok, It is because your file tag problem...try to use either iTune or Winamp to change the ID3tage to V2.4...

                                I am using 1GB card and there is nothing wrong with it. I have download movies and songs in it...no lag! Just make sure you have close the programme when it is not in use.

                                One thing bear in mind, I tried to use my Mac programme - GarageBand to cut MP3 ringtone but when my X800 auto reset when I open it!! Be careful....

                                    hi Eugene,

                                    but when i send the mp3 file via bluetooth, i cannot open the mp3 in my inbox. so i cannot save.....they said: format not supported.

                                    if i want to change a bigger storage memory mini SD card. will my phone end up loading very slowly?

                                      Actually, they are the same...only each supports different format of music files. But MP3 nowadays is more common....so, your choice ;)

                                        To ken: It is because of the MP3 file. Try use iTune to change it to mono instead of stero.

                                        To unsure: The best is to use card-reader to install your MP3. Actually, I do use bluetooth to transfer and have no problem so far. Open the message and You can save the MP3 to the folder you want.
