I have this phone for about a month and a half. Bluetooth is working perfectly, i have a bluetooth adapter to connect it to a PC and it's great. It also connects to other phones. I still haven't found something bad with this phone. Everything is working.

Ok, there has been many questions on how to connect to the supplied Handset Manager software with bluetooth and I too have had to search forums because of the absence of support for the software but here is the solution. Actually it is kind of copied from a few pages back on this forum but...... You must select connectivity...Pc Software...Bluetooth then use your bluetooth software (usually supplied with USB dongle) to search and pair with your phone. Then you have to select to use the phone as a serial port. Take note of the Com port number assigned and make sure the handset manager is looking for that port. Any questions email me at tommyg@curl.aunz.net because it was very difficult for me to figure out in the first place.

Nice looking phone, wonderful bluetooth, but why does it not take voice out sounds. Can anything be done about the memory?

I'm using bluetooth to connect it with my computer and it works excellent. I'm very pleased with this phone. Cheap and very reliable. Who needs memory? A phone is designed mostly to communicate. If you want to shoot pictures or movies, cameras were also invented.

problems arrive when combining unsupported transfering schemes. Like trying to transfer a vcf file format unsupported by the sharp phone.
Also when phone enters stand by while connectivity is on (either bt or ir) i noticed some problems like the ones you posted. All ok after reinitiating the connectivity service.
I think that a poor error management implementation implied a poor bug checking procedure by the sharp developers. I feel that this is the only error we'll see when something goes wrong with the transfer: return to standby.
As a conclusion: it is a low cost phone that wanted to implement medium to high end solutions. You can see that when you enter the menu that looks great and after that the graphical design is very poor in quality. And as usually when you try to build a mile long tower with the money that usually buy a cottage for the dog they got a broke legged chicken that doesn't lay any eggs. :))
bye not buy
