I have found more bugs recently that Sony Ericsson should fix with an update... No updates have been released for this phone (i think)...

When the Walkman changes track from a previous track (eg song has finished), the new track is said to be playing but no sound is coming out, even though the volume is at max. This problem is fixed by changing the track, and playing the track (that is not outputting sound) again...

Another bug is when the Walkman suddenly plays a monotonous sound. This varies from high to low pitched (has happened a few times...). This problem is fixed by simply rewinding the song or fast-forwarding the song, when the normal sound then comes back out... This happens less often (or not at all) when I use the headphones...

This is a great phone, it is just that these minor glitches prevent the W200 from being perfect... I hope that SE will look into the problem and fix the problems, which I suspect is firmware bugs...

PS I am not an American... (Not a great fan of them either)...

          Hi, I got a problem with the reception of this phone. This phone does not automatically select service provider from the available networks and instead goes into Emergency calls only mode. Can this problem be corrected.

          Any information regarding this problem would be helpful.

          You can reach me at gihan.is@gmail.com

          Take care.

            For SHA...
            VGA camera resolution uses the phones internal memory and hardware-specifications in order to produce images with the camera. Compare this to a K850i for example, which has a seperate chip (CMOS detection and such) to handle the images. And with specific chips, the phone will be able to produce images of varying quality...

            Basically saying, because the phone is forced to use its own limited hardware to produce images, VGA is not going to produce for you a clear and crisp picture, compared with a 3.2 Megapixel phone which will have a dedicated chip for the phone's camera and phone seperately......

            Hope this helps...

                    VGA means Video Graphics Adapter. Hehe. Well it means that u can capture photos with 640x480 pxls resolution equivalent to 3r picture size. But since it can be interpolated to 1.3 mpx, then it means u can capture images up to 1280x960 pxls even though it's only a vga camera. Most SE fones hav interpolated cameras..

                              I've been using this phone for almost a month already. Here are my comments, observations and answers to some of your questions.

                              1. Charging time is I think rated at 2.5 hours but in reality is around 3 hours. When it is charging while turned on, I did not notice if there is a 'battery charge full' indicator. You'll have to press the volume key to get the phone status where it will show as 'charging 100%'. When charging while turned off, it will show a 'battery full' message when done.
                              2. Yes it can save more than 10 SMS messages. All phones can save more than 10 SMSs.
                              3. Included memory card is 128MB M2.
                              4. Nokias are still more user-friendly. For example, in Nokia phones, after answering the phone you can select the loudspeaker mode in 1 click. Not so with this phone, you have to navigate by clicking 'More' and looking for the speakerphone option. Kind of annoying when I'm driving.
                              5. Battery lasts almost 3 days in my 'regular' use. That's a few calls, sms, music and much clicking without actually doing anything.

                                    Just letting you know that you cannot upgrade your hardware by upgrading your software... The W200i originally has 0.3 megapixel.... But this cannot be upgraded with a software upgrade to 2.0 megapixels...

                                    Use common sense mate~! What you're talking about is a hardware upgrade, which sounds like will cost over a $500US! I am a phone programmer so I know these things... Just getting a 262K TFT LCD screen onto the W200i is around $150, and I am not even sure if the W200i will work with that upgrade...

                                    Maybe you should speak more accurately, since your english isn't great, then I will be able to answer your (and everyone else's) questions with understanding....

                                      I am waiting for a new software to have bluetooth 2.0, 2mp camera with rich settings, 262k tft display, walkman 3.0, 1800mah battery and walkman strip as possible then i will be more happier with it. i am very sorry including 8gb memory card is a big mistake. i like this one but my advice is that one and let u know more if i need it as possible.

                                        People should research the W200i properly before they pplace opinions on this site... Some of the questions asked is getting, quite frankly, ridiculous.... Research the phone yourselves (even better, buy one...) and if you can't find the answer, this is the last place to look....

                                        AND NO, YOU CANNOT GET A 8GB MEMORY CARD WITH A SOFTWARE UPGRADE....
