Does anyone know why my alarms don't work. Same for the appointment thing. Alarms set for the morning seem to go off whenever they feel like it. Apart from that, a great phone. Good cam, good video, easy to use, and you can even call people on it.

    Despite the negative views this phone is getting, I can honestly say it is great value for money. Only £40 from vodafone and it has got everything. Camera, video, infrared,bluetooth and WAP. It also looks stylish. If you are lloking for a cheap phone with basic functions. I higly recommend it.

      What a load of rubbish - this is the worst phone I've used. The menu navigation is clumsy and far from intuitive, sending a text takes far too many keystrokes and it's generally poorly designed. Couldn't wait to replace it at teh end of my contract.

        I've got a Gx 17 for allmost a year now and i like it...too bad it has only 1.8Mb of memory.for a phone it takes nice pics,and maybe the most important thing about it is that its verry stabile it does not has dumb errors

          Hi Do not buy this phone.I have had mine for 12 months and it has been repaired once and still does not work properly even after being fixed.
          Buyers beware that it does not play all types of ringtones either and that it has poor video footage and poor sound quality when recording

            i've got a gx17 as a loan phone, and it's rubbish! do not buy one! images are poor quality, video is poor quality, and although it says it has bluetooth, i can't get to send or receive anything. and it doesn't look goood!

            pay a bit more and get a better phone.

                      All you have to do is go to your bluetooth settings. Select Visibility and then select hide my phone. you will be connected to bluetooth but your phone will not be visible to others.

                        Hey there...

                        Brought this phone today and am totally confused with the whole bluetooth thing (this is my first phone that has got BT). I've read the book I got with it and looked up the net to find info. but I don't want to be connected at all in which I can send/receive or ppl detect me in their network. how can I enable this...do I just go to connectivity and then click BT and then off?...if i do this does this mean I have no connections with BT??

                        Thanks

                          Doesnt work with mp3s. Use mmf instead. The file cant be too big, around 50k. Mid sounds can be loaded too, full songs very small size :). Pictures work as jpg, use same size reference. I cant make the handsetmanager connect with my phone. thats awfully disapointing. Cant disable camera sound. :(
                          No options for changing interface colors.:(

                              If the phone doesn't recognize the file it is being transmitted (e.g. mp3) via bluetooth it gets 99% there then ditches it.

                                  Well, it is nice and I like it, but having said that there is one "little fault" that is frustrating me. In most cases bluetooth isn't working. The data would transfer up to 99% and than message would pop up saying that it failed. Really annoying!
