Anybody had any experience with this phone? If u want to buy this phone i suggest u all test the keypad first cause it's so hard to press. The centre button of navi wheel so hard to press it's so annoyed. Please test first before u buy and regret it.

however about 1 and 2... i havent yet xperienced that problem with the phone hanging during calls... about the music player closing, u have to do that by goin into the music player, going into options and then choose exit... then it closes... this is the only way....

> In reply to MZN @ 2009-03-06 18:16 from uWxy - click to readThe phone for rupees 20,000 is not justified it has many problems

1. if screen auto rotates while taking it out of pocket the phone hangs for a while when a call is coming

2. The music app. can not be closed by the Open/Active applications menu by pressing "c"

3. Screen Saver or the power out mode doest work. the screen saver starts with no screen light and den disappears in 2 secs...no matter waht the settings are.

4. Loudspeakers are poor literaly.

5. if the light goes out and you are in a working screen(other than stand-by one) the backlight of the phone doest'nt work.

I have some kind of "EMI" sound, the type where if your handphone is about to ring, your speakers will emit that sound if it's near it... and it happens within the phone itself. Anyone else got this problem?
