is there a difference when installing games on the E398 compared to the K700 or 6230?
the nokia's and the sony ericcsons are simple when it comes to using its features.
im told the motorola is a lot more complicated comparatively.
if i have Java games on my PC is it that tough to transfer them to my Phone ?
buying this phone in a few days, and im a gaming freak. this and the battery life is something im concerned about.
thanx.

k ... thanks, im guessing thats not too bad and a fully functional alarm. My only doubts about this phone was about the alarm and the synchronised vibrate n ringing of the phone when the calls comes in, which seems to be an existing feature on this phone.
well now one more thing .... Like the N6230 being based on n Symbian system, whats the e398 based on and also the K700i, if anyone knows bout that.(any plus pts or drawbacks with this system)

To Ebonk: Thanks, yea, I added a few new themes to me e398 with the TF mem and Sim in it, nothing happened. Is the 98R the latest firmware update? is there a newer version? I have heard stories abt a new firmware that lets you record vidoes and increase remove the max 5 alarm cap, is this true?

To Karthik - if you reflash your e398, it will erase your skin/themes, but I don't think reflexing will erase them, it should only affect specific flex. But prepare for the worst, it's not so difficult to install skin/theme - unless starting & stop page
To Sherry - s/w included in CD (MPT & Magix) r for sync yr PC w/ e398 and add/edit/create pic, audio & add video. Java, skin/theme not included.

Can someone confirm if it is ok to flex your phone (with themes) with the TF memory and the sim card in the phone? I understand that the TF mem and Sim have to come out when upgrading the firmware, but is it the same for skins/themes as well?

Well, I finally got around to flex my e398 and I am very much impressed with 98R. What I am really amaized was that before flexing I had a dead pixel on me e398, and with the flexing its gone. is that really possible? i thought it was more of a hard ware issue. hmmmm

For install Java you need to activate Java Application Loader from your Java Settings. By default this is not available but you can available it with P2K Tools. And finally use Midway to install it to your phone. For ringtone problems, just master clear then master reset your phone.

To Sherry - I sent it for an anonymous mailer who has d/l java games and has waited 5 days for instructions how to install them.
D/l using GPRS should be easier for you.
To Bill, if you can play your ringtone, I don't think its corrupted. It might be a glitch. To set ringtone, you can go to Multimedia>Sounds>Select your sound (this sound should be in phone memory) and click menu, in pop-up display select "Apply as ringtone" > select line 1 or 2.
