sony j230i this is the worst phone i used. random sounds (radio waves) coming from speaker randomely ,after unloking the key and pressing the "no" button the sound stops , and the battery backup also so poor, daily i have to recharge .the adoptor using a peculiar connector like data cable it is rare type and i hate to carry the phone with me.if i want to see the call history it plays eyes-spice raising my blood pressure.while dialing if delay for few seconds keylock locks automatically ,the time gap is to small(not adjustable).

I have activated GPRS on Dolphin (Mumbai).
Go to the mtnl website http://dolphin.mumbai.mtnl.net...olphin2.html (might not work for Delhi) , Alternatively, use the Sony Ericsson Site, which will work for any country & city : http://www.sonyericsson.com/sp..._1&pid=10354

Remember that WAP/GPRS is a paid service so you will have to get your mobile operator to start the servive as well (For dolphin, all you need to do is send a SMS - call 1500 from a landline for the MTNL helpline & find
out the details.
Going on to the Phone itself, I found the phone quite good for the price. The Phone was purchased for my wife.
She is very impressed with the radio/speakerphone quality - it is clearer than any other phone of any other manufacturer, period.It is also Louder than 90% of most phones, although some Nokia phones are louder (but not clearer).I use a W 810i & it is clearer than even that...(Unless I plug in the portable speakers of the 810i - Then the 810 is far superior) - Note well - accessories for other SE phones DO NOT work with the J230i - such as the aforementioned speakers, & also the data cable/software etc. The J230i is deliberately designed to be unable to use accessories of other SE phones. However, you can update it's software & use other such facilities through its GPRS connection.

Hi friends,

The SMS I receive are getting stored in some memory but when I load another SIM, all messages are lost and I don't get them back even if I switch back to old SIM. This means the SMS memory is volatile. Can you please tell me how to save them permanently in phone memory (not in SIM memory which is limited and is already full). Thanks.
