Emily,the phone will download true tones from vodafone live but you have to be sure it will suit your model phone , because there are different versions of true tones..it sounds wierd , but true. My daughter has downloaded tunes without any hassles ,and we also have a data cable so we can upload songs from our computer and download photos from the camera. the cable was purchased from sagem Australia at about $76 , with the cable we can install any song we like onto the phone without having to search every where for it.I also find the camera is in a very comfortable positon at the top of the phone as it is easy to use the shutter while viewing the picture on the screen viewfinder.(you just have to watch that you don't put your finger over the camera lense.)

The camera is on the bottom half of the phone, just under the little ariel thingo. It seems a silly place to put it, but in all honesty, if you want great photos, buy a camera, not a phone...

Well honesty I bought the phone and I am looking to return it. The screen display is dismal, even though it boasts 64k colour. I previously owned a nokia 3200 which was a much better buy. Great features but I could not stand to look at the screen

I think this phone is just amazing. I bought it today and i thought it was boring and small. But when I actually used it it was better. This is just a lesson like don't judge a book by it's cover. (In this case mobile phone) I recommend you buy this phone the Sagem My c5-2. It is the BEST!

I'm thinking of buying one of these phones myself. How does it go with downloading wallpapers/screen savers etc? I've read a few times on here about it not supporting MP3's or real tones, but supporting WAV files, so that's alright. Just wondering about pretty pictures, ha ha. I'm such a woman, all I want is something that I can make calls on and that'll look pretty too all of my friends.

A freind of mine has bought this phone with a small crack in the screen, however she did not want to return it as she love the phone and it was the last phone that is in the store. Since the screen on the phone has stoped working. There may be a connection with the small crack that was there when she purchased it. both the external and interal screens have now stopped working. Can any one E-Mail me with what she should do next. Is she able to send it back and get it fixed, as she has only had it for 2 monthes? - My email is: nicholas.jackson.00@exh.tas.edu.au

Mr Do. Both MY C5-2 phones we have are Vodaphone. The seller of the generic cable told me a similar story, but they gave me my money back when I returned the cable. The official sagem cable was a bit different looking than the generic , but I had no trouble with it..it comes with a mini disc for the cable drive. DON'T delete any MPAS you have downloaded from Planet Sagem as it doesn't seem to come on the disc.I never had any problem with the phone being Vodaphone firmware, just had probs with generic cable.

Thanks for the info nobleknight..
Is yours a vodaphone handset?
I'm scared of wasting more money buying the official cable to find that the vodaphone firmware will cause it to not work!!

I recevied the following information from the seller of the third party cables:

Hi
The cable it has been made to work with sagem MYC5-2 phones, software at
sagem website it is compatible with
original sagem firmware (it is the software installed in the phone
handset)
if your phone is a vodafone live handset it is not compatible with the
software at sagem website that is why
vodafone selling the handset without the CD software cause every sagem
phone come with CD software that is why
we sell the cable without software cause it is illegal to give copies,
we supplied the websites they sell
software compatible with the cable under our description include the
sagem website which is the original
software, that is why every vodafone handset need to find the right
software to communicate with the firmware
installed in the handset, till now we sold 100 cables no one had
problems.

!!! Again i have to stress how absolutely annoyed i am with this vodaphone modified version of this phone as you can tell from my previous posts in this regard. I WANT THE ORIGINAL FIRMWARE!!! Vodaphone say i have to speak to sagem, sagem then say they cant as vodaphone makes them put that firmware on it.

As for Jadie, you need to call up the vodaphone help line and talk to them about it. They enable/disable voicemail.
PLUS if someone leaves a message i'm sure you pay for them leaving it as well as when you do 121 to listen to it. So make sure you have credit.. It should be on by default but. I thought mine was off.. only to find my x girlfriend accidently dialled my phone from spain when she was drunk and left this huge message of her pocket as she walked around. I listened to some of it before my credit was all used up from the whole thing. But basically your problem will only be solved from calling up vodaphone..

So what? Was my question too basic? Maybe you won't/can't answer my question because it's related to using my phone as a phone, not some wierd kind of sound playing machine.
