re:sms quota.
I have not had that problem with the sms quota. However some networks restrict their sms's to the simcard which means that you are restrcited to around 20-30 msgs. considering most people prefer to text these days this both sucks and blows at the same time.( didn't think it was physically possible for both at the same time.)
As far as i am aware thereis no options for setting the default message storage to the phone or the sim. but you can try setting the default phonebook to the phone and maybe that might somehow work. thats the best I can do for now. but I am working on it. good luck.

Hey, does anyone else have issues with the number of smses it holds? I can only get around 25 before the inbox gets too full...but there's still memory space for the phone itself. Anyone able to help?? Oh AND...can i add words to the t9 predictive text dictionary? Or is it just what's in there...cos that is REALLY annoying. thanks guys. cheers, caz.

I finally managed to get photos printed from this camera on a 6x4 inch. its actually pretty good. (its the most positive I have said about this phone for a long time. note eariler msg. I printed the photos on one of those kiosks in woolworths for 20p per print (they had a special opening offer on .)I have actually framed them today and they look good. One important thing however is that I had to really touch the infrared sensor to the one in the kiosk in order to get it to recognise the phone. just thoughti'd let you lovely people know. one more question why does it take so long to transfer pictures from the phone to the computer i have usb 1.1 but surely that cant be the issue. surely its a seimen problem. ( well you have to blame someone might aswell be seimens)LOL.

menu system is absolutely ugly
-love the polyphonic similar to t630
-twist camera is cool
-to check the time i have to open it so external screen would be great
-bought it not for media but just calls and text

Too bad its display spoil its camera function. Its 1.3mp picture must not goes with such 65k colours and supports only 128*160.

MotoRokr E1, is infamous for its VGA. However, when i compare the two, E1 seems to show a more vibrant picture on its display than SF65 showing a much higher resolution photo.

hi, as far as i kno you cant set ur recordings as a ringtone! however, if you are able to connect ur phone to ur computer, then you can upload ringtones onto your phone. [ringtone file size must be less than 50kb, and the file name must not contain any spaces or special characters]

this phone is cool but i would not recomend people to buy the siemens sf65 due to its screen quality and lack of options. also the volume dose not turn up that high. this phone looks cool but just dont buy it cause it is not that good !!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol liked ur review singing_sagaar, its kinda true. i've had no problem connectin the phone to the computer - uploadin pictures has been fine for me. however, the photo quality is kinda disappointin, not thaaat bad but could be better! bad sides to this phone, as nearly everyone else has experienced, is that it crashes now and then! i dont take the battery out thou, you jus hav to wait for around 5 mins and it switches off. the games on this phone is alrite, and obviously the swivel action is cool. another plus point is how the camera mode allows u to choose various modes such as b/w, etc. i wont recommend this phone though!!! peace out kimXx

This phone is like Paris Hilton, sexy, great shape, great to look at, Yet closer inspection indicates a pile of pants ( or lack of it in Paris's case) The more I use this phone the more it cheezes me off. The twisted screen one of these days is gonna come in handy as it will make it easier to break the darn thing. There is lack of customisation options. You cant send mms/sms without having to select an email/number from the address book. it will not let you type one in manually. what if you want to send an email which does not exist in the phone? ( say to Seimens telling them how SH1T this phone is). also the text when using GPRS is very large and means you have to constantly keep scrolling. There is no option for chaning the size of the fonts. Boy I feel much better now I have it off my chest. anyone else agree ?

Absolutely rubbish! I paid 150 euros for it last year and today I paid another 40 for the data cable. I feel like an idiot. I got the cable and can't get it to work at all. The phone freezes and gives me all kinds of issues. Bad purchase.

I've had this phone for about 9 months. It's very very laggy and its keys are hard to press, typing a simple message requires at least a minute or two cause you have to keep on deleting the words. It hangs very often too especially while using the camera.
