Nigel

If you have this problem you need to wait (give your phone some time) after the transfer is complete, give it about half an hour, close the disc to phone window. Then use 'remove device safely' on your status bar, next to the clock (bottom right coner) if this works. The reason is even though it says tranfer complete, it takes time to actually save the music onto you phone.
Hope this helps

          You can transfer movies from your pc, mpeg avi even dvd movies. U need a converter to convert your movies to 3gp. 212mb file was compressed to 2mg in 3gp. Great phone.

                        Levi:
                        What about transfers between cell phone and pc via bluetooth?

                        I read a lot of complains , freezing screens, the need of removing the battery and turn on again, etc.

                        Thanks for the info, and another question, how much time you can video record and what about the quality compare to those regular sony digital cameras?

                          I've had this phone for almost a month now. I've sent a file through bluetooth before (to another phone Nokia6682) and there was not any problem at all. i have not experienced any loss of files like the pictures. I love this phone and i am not regretting getting it. It really is multifunctional, awesome camera, MP3 player, and of course, cell phone

                            Thinking of buying these phone cause I'm looking for these 3 things:

                            -Good quality cam with flash
                            -Bluetooth capability
                            -a nice looking "block" (i dont feel like opening stuff to make some calls)

                            Anyway.. reading some reviews, theres seems to be a problem with the bluetooth function when transfering files.

                            could anyone confirm me please or tell me if SE already fix it and how.

                            Thanks

                              The phone is very affordable and features are great even it is already old. And by the way I have a K750i and also superb features.

                                  so far the only way i would know would be ripping it directly.... i only know cdex directly from a cd, and xilisoft ripper to do so.... can't help you assides from this.

                                  to everyone:
                                  i purchased my phone in mexico, and being on silent mode no shutter sound while taking pictures.

                                  to awais:
                                  yes you do have equalizer while mp3 playing, got 5 preset settings: normal, bass, mega bass, voice, and acute, which you can change on your personal taste.

                                  to prawler, if u use a sim card u can store some of them over there, though, i'm not sure numbers are actually saved on memory stick though...

                                    Hi!
                                    I used to have K750 - it wasn't great - software bugs making it restart, buttons were stuck from time to time, sound had some noise after a month's use.

                                    Anyway, I was assured by my local store, that this is not an issue with W800, so I bought it.
                                    Well, restarts were rare, BUT today software completely collapsed and phone doesn't start at all.

                                    Local repairers said they have to flash it, but in this way I will lose over 400 contact numbers.

                                    DOES anyone know how I can save my address book? Is there any such software, for example like for PC-s, to just read the phone memory as a slave card?

                                    Please, help me!
