i bought this phone yesterday and it is purple. it seems to be a very fine phone and it has every feature that a great phone would need. my question is how do i change it so that everytime i press a button it vibrates? my friend said that i must change the theme but ive tried all themes and it still does not vibrate..

i love the look of this phone but the main problem is that the buttons keep cracking.. it happens to my friend as well~~ also my back cover is a bit dodgy... other than that, it's really lovely. i love the design of this phone :)

Apparently you can't put an 8GB in the phone because it wouldn't be able to read it correctly

Yeah, the keys crack, but they still work. Very pleased with it's functions and versatility regardless of frame weaknesses. Does anyone know the maximum memory card Micro M2 size? i've heard the website lists certain maximum capacities (2GB), same as W850, but people are successfully using 4GB M2 cards in their W850's. dare i buy a 4gig memory card?..

don't buy this phone! you'll be love by your technician after a few days only for going again and again for the same old reason, the keypad cracking!

and the worst, after a year you don't have warranty for the keypad no more, you'll have to pay for it. whew!

I dont recommend this fone if you live in a country that is always humid coz it ruins the settings and u might get liquid from the weather under yourr keypad and the keys will stop working. i hve this problem now i have the back button and the one above it dont work because of this liquid that is wasnt caused by me.

> In reply to Anonymous @ 2008-09-18 08:19 from jyB4Hi, I fix these for a living and the keypads crack on these and also W580 which is almost identical model. The keypad is just taped down though so easily replaceable.

Is the key cracking problem found on all S500's or just certain colors... ie: mysterious green???

can you lock the phone with a password? either the whole phone or can you lock certain applications like the messages, photos, call logs etc?

Awsome phone! I have been using it for about a year and i love everything about it.

I have had absolutley no problems with it and its never skipped a beat except for some of the keys "cracking" but thats something i can live with as im obviously not as picky as some. It dosent effect how you use the phone and you can hardly even see the cracks!

best phone ive ever had :P
