Ho everyone, first of all, I'm from spain, so I'm sorry if my english is faulty.
Well, I've bought a sharp 770sh and i'll receive it tomorrow, I expect so much of this phone because my old phone (a sharp gx15), gave me tons of phoning pleasure. Little Questions: how good is the camera? I know it's "only" 1.3 mp, but it is said that sharp cameras are in general superior to other brands, is that true? how is the camera, compared, for example with the 2mp's motorola v3x?
Sound is good? it has stereo speakers?
I have heard that battery life in this model is such a concern, what about it?

thanks a lot!

Thanks for your help, I never knew the ringtones had to be in the the handset memory to be set as a ringtone, all I need to do now is download some smaller songs as most of mine are over 5.2mb. :D

To whom it may concern, this phone can set mp3s as ringtones if you followed these steps:

1, copy the mp3 to the phone (also known as the handset) memory. (not the memory card, important!)
2, go to "my item" then "music & ringtones".
3, find the mp3, select "option", then select "set as ringtone".
DONE!

Beware that the phone memory is approximately 5.2MB, so make sure that the mp3 is smaller than that. It's not easy especially when you want to set multiple mp3s as ringtones for different contact groups.

i think sharp 7XXX can not set mp3 to ringtone, it can use AMR and may be ACC to ringtone

Hewwoo!
I bought this phone yesterday and I'm so happy with it!! ^^ But the only problem is that it won't read files on the memory card, and it takes forever for it to put songs on my card... When I put the memory card into my sister's Samsung, it shows the music files but my Sharp can't see it for some reason~ It's so annoying >.< !
And I can't find any XDMF software either...
Anyway, thankies if you can help me! ^-^

Thank you so much Eras3r!!! I've tried that program before but it must have been the audio bitrate that was causing the problem! Thanks again for helping me! Now it works!! ^^

Hi. I've got this phone a few days ago and encontered a problem. It doesn't play my videos. I followed some tutorials here about converting to mp4 and 3gp but still, when I transfer the videos to my phone I can't play them. It gives me a 'cannot play' error. I've tried everything I could!! I tried converting from avi to either of those formats instead of the original file being mpeg, lowered the resolution (video and sound) and still can't get them to play! Can someone help me?

Hi, I already posted before. The best way to encode videos for this phone is by using Kingdia dvd to 3gp converter, video and sound are perfect.

On another note, is there a way to skip to a specific part of the video quickly rather then fast forwarding through all the clip. Because with a 1GB card i can load whole DVDs onto it, but what if i want to start half way through the DVD?

Thanks to all

you can't send Jar or Jad files to this phone! the ONLY way is WAP...

Recently got the 770SH as a replacement for my "aging" SPV E100. It's a good phone. Got 1GB microSD card and I use bluetooth dongle to upload stuff. But the only problem I have is that I can't send Jar or JAD files to the phone. It says the connection terminated on the phone and sending files failed on the PC. How do you send these files to the phone??

If I can sort this little problem out, I know I will enjoy using this phone for a long time.

Thanks for your commets, Eras3r :)

I've also checked this setup feature and it's ok. Just in case, I've just reinstalled the Handset Manager - not using the CD, but the downloadable file from sharp-mobile.com and the problem is always there...

When opening Contacts, it's interface shows a message - "Contatcs is read only before succesful download" [don't know if this expression matches the one you may see, I'm using spanish version software]. Then there is a blinking message at the Contacts' windows bottom side - "Attempting to connect to the phone" and... that's it! :) So it seems the problem is on the Handset Manager side.

I will soon begin to dream of wonderful USB data cables... easy to use... slightly uncomfortable, but aaah easy to use...

These techie-gadgets... they're driving me crrrazy!!! XD

you have to change the BT port in the handset manager! in the right top corner of the program you have some settings you can change! one of them is port COM! just change for the port that you bluetooth device is using (port 4 you said). after that close the program and open again!

Hi, everybody,

After installing the BT dongle, a Belkin, there's no way for my Handset Manager to work on my PC. I can send files to & from the phone, by using the Belkin Bluetooth application itself, but not so with the very 770SH Handset Manager software.

I've tried reinstalling the software, stopping the firewall, using both Windows drivers and manufacturer's ones... Thoug BT is working fine on the assigned port COM4, Handset seems not recognize it, so I just can send files one at a time (and, oh Gods, it's horrible! :-).

Has someone find the same problem please? I'll deeply acknowledge any comments.

Best,

DeGeer

It is not possible to create or download themes for this phone. The themes that were on the phone are the only choice.
