If your Jet supports 3G, that is not from the authorised dealer in China as China does not support 3G network. Your phone should be imported from Singapore or Europe and flashed with Chinese firmware.

If so, you can flash it without any problem. It still supports 3G network.

Maybe accelerometer only works with photo viewing in European firmware as there is a little difference between firmwares in Asia and Europe. Typing SMS supports auto rotate but not viewing SMS.

      my current firmware is S8000CZCIF8 and my bro get it from china.

      so is it possible to upgrade to the latest firmware "
      S8000XEII2"

      i fear that 3G capability will be lost after the upgrade.

      so please be adviced.

            why the accelerometer don't work in photo viewing and sms.

            in the gsmarena review,
            in photo viewing, the the phone is change from vertically to horizontally, the photo also rotate in same manner.
            in sms, when the phone is changed from vertically to horizontally, the QWERTY key pad will appear from normal numerical key pad.

            so advice me, these features are not persent in JET or only my bro's set is missing.

            thanks to all

                            my bro is using a jet which is bought 2 days a go.

                            camera perfect.
                            reception and phone call ok.
                            wi fi with ease.
                            battery normal.

                            only 1 problem
                            the phone change the photo by tilting the phone(i mean the accelerometer working),
                            but no screen auto-rotate either in viewing photos or in sms (so no qwerty key pad)
                            so where can i turn on the accelerometer feature for this function.

                            my firmware is (S8000CZCIF8)
                            so is this due to firmware or wrong menu option?
                            can this be solved by firmware upgrade?
                            my bro buy this from china, so can this phone work with latest firmware?

                            please reply me

                              Hi there. I've had this phone for 4 days now and no problems until last night. For some reason when I try using a GPRS connection (web browsing, weather widget etc) then I get an error message saying unexpected error or network connection error. Anybody know what the issue could be? This worked fine until last night and if I choose to use a WiFi connection it works fine.
