I have a problem with the alarm which keeps going of at 03:45 in the morning. If the alarms are set for 06:00 it still goes off at 03:45 and 06:00.

I have reset the phone, removed the battery changed all three alarm times but to no avail.

Also sometimes when dialing the person on the other side answers but I does hear a dialling tone or the persons voice until I have phoned a 2nd time.
Otherwise a great phone

Any ideas?

I've had this xda for abour 4 months now, and i am very impressed with the functions it has for what i need. I needed a phone with an organiser and satnav. This syncs up with my laptop, along with being on O2 network, never drops calls and the battery life is just great. Only funny is the thumbwheel on the front, Thats a but hard to get around. But scores a 7/10 in my books.

Those whining about the lack of 3g should just invest in the next model up the Orbit II as it has 3G support.

Personally I'm all for these slightly limited versions of expensive phones as it means we get a bunch of excellent features without all the expense of the 'posers' model.

I've just bought this handset and initially was very happy with it. My last phone was the SPV M600 on orange which is virtually the same device only without GPS and the FM Radio.

I bought the handset brand new online and was happy to find that it was unlocked as standard so could pop my Orange sim card in without any problems.

HOWEVER the reception is pretty terrible. There's no problems if I go outside, but any time I step into a building the reception either dips out completely or is very very weak.

Has anyone heard of similar problems?

I've had it between diff manufacturers yeah. They don't appear to be always compatable. If blue tooth is your only option then you could buy a dongle and plug it to your pc and transfer them to that then back off to the Orbit. Best way is to obviously use a data cable to get the info off your old phone, but I assume you dont have that?
