On the right side there is een lock botton, if you put it on lock, your mp3player will not switch on.
To have a better battery life, you must turn G3 off. Or try een software update, that helped me.

I have this phone because its the only one i could get at the time and the battery life on this phone does NOT last up to 400 h on stand by. it only last up to 48 to 72 h (2 - 3 days). i would appreciate it if the "Sony Ericsson Company" would have a better battery life on their products.

It is a good phone.
I experience no laggy even with few application opened.
Sound is good and got an easy access to music too. Camera resolution is good but it has no autofocus. The video also can record up to 15fps only. (well its ok since this phone is a W series) Out off all, I dont satisfied with the battery life. Just one and half day for a light usage. (25 sms)
I recommend this phone for music lover.

what i do recommend is
1- remove the memory card
2- restore default ( factory ) settings
3- do the hardreset test , take the battery out and the sim card, switch on the phone with the battery and leave the sim out, then switch it off and put back the sim again .
4- try the usb cable again and if it can read it then, update the software using the website and connecting ur mobile through the USB cable not the bluetooth.


hope it works for you

IMHO, its a phone at a great price [YUM], the keypad are good to press except for the navigating pad which is hard to adapt to.
Very light weighted phone. It doesnt lag for me [not an excessive user]. However, it cant detect my memory card sometimes, i have to repeatedly slot in and out till it reads my card. But thats no biggie. There is a flash menu, which i find it rly annoying, so i dled a couple of themes, to 'static' it
http://www.modopo.com/en/.
Im satisfied with the phone, and i rly love the poetic white it offers + free additional cover design. Like w595, i have difficulty removing the back cover of this phone if i have to take out sim/ memory card, [nails dmg ++]. The sound is great, but its annoying if u blast it at full volume, and to be able to access music player from the front cover is a plus plus for me. Camera is alright, as im alr used to having 3< megapixel for a phone, video is a lil disappointing tho, need some 'significant' amount of light to capture neatly. In a nutshell, if ur someone who goes for style phone + music lover, this is the one, if ur going for features like wifi look elsewhere, u get what u pay :)
