Emmy; U600 is also good. It has more features than D900 and also the FM radio. The problems are battery life of U600 is worse than that of D900, camera lag is also said to be more etc.

I like to take photos. So far, the photo i take using D900i is not bad. If u compare it with K800i, there is not much different when the area is bright. It make a lot different in the dark ( no light at all)...coz K800i is using xenon flash. Cant compare as the price oso different a lot.
I find tat the screen resolution and colour is better than K800i( my wife is using it).
Design wise, D900i is definately more classy. Its so much lighter. Its just look like a mp4 player without sliding up. Cool...

Overall, I buy D900i as I wan other design than "candy-bar" design phone. I like the phone very much...

To silent ur camera, u can do it by:
1. during the camera mode, press the "back" and go to the "setting".
2. choose the camera. inside there u can change the quality, shutter sound, auto-focus, etc...u can set the video setting oso.

Using the "auto-focus" can take better photo than "pan-focus".

Andy, The easiest way is to press and hold # in standby to enter silent mode before you start camera

TALS,

I mean images transferred from pc. Otherwise, you can zoom or view full screen with images taken with ITS CAMERA only. To know more, click the below link and download the help guide-it is prepared by me, for D900 users- and refer TIP 34

Rajesh,
regarding abrar - he stopped cooperating.
i sent him two person messages and he does not answer.

thanks you for sharing all the phone's bugs.
i knew most of them except for:
"You can't view full screen/zoom external images". can you please elaborate?
what do you mean by "external imeges"?

TALS;
I think this problem can be solved. Following that link, I saw your post in howard forums, with reference to abrar's post. I suggest you to make another post there, suggesting abrar to try the following two things and give a feedback:

1. In the bluetooth menu/my devices, select jabra bt 620s and from options, select 'AUTHORISE DEVICE'.
2.Always activate bluetooth in phone first and then only turn on jabra.

But I would like to caution you about some bugs in D900-i;
1.The document viewer is not included in it
2.You can't view full screen/zoom external images, because picsel file viewer is absent
3.It is not possible to install java through usb.
All the above are possible in D900, but it has no FM radio.

Rajesh,
i do not have the D900i but i strongly considered buying it.
i use D600 and the Jabra BR620s which is amazing.
The D600 have a major bug with stereo bluetooth (A2DP) when streaming music from the memory card. this bug was fixed so i wanted to buy the D900i. the problem with the D900i paring sounds bad however so i am reconsidering. i am not 100% sure the D900i have this bug really - i heard it only from one source (see link below) and i know it is not present on D900.

Just a minute TALS,

1. Have you actually tried a BT620s and experienced the repairing problem yourself ?

2. Do you experience the problem with any other phone/device?

Thank you.

So i guess we probably have an inteoperability issue between d900i and the BT620s. damn the Jabra is simply the best BT headset availabe...
Dirk thanks a lot for all your inputs!

Dirk, please take a look at the next forum:
http://www.howardforums.com/ar...88350-1.html
do you have the re-pairing issue mentioned at the bottom with the D900 as well?
i suspect this is a D900i specific issue or a usability issue.

but i tink its can oni play Ipod size file(320X240)or lesser...those psp size file(368X208) is not supported.
Coz i using convertor to convert from other file like .mov, .wmv, .mpeg, etc...try a few times then get the correct thing to play in my phone...Convert-USB into card-Play-Cannot-Convert-....blah blah blah

A question to ask, wat is the "locked" function for?Does it lock a file from other ppl opening it?
