To malik

The speakers are vibrating speakers so they will vibrate more as the volume increases. So turn down the volume other then that you can’t stop the vibration. I find it isn’t much of hassle maybe yours vibrates more then mine?

The phone has a 64MB Trans flash so an average song is around 4.5MB so about 14 songs.
It can only play video in mpeg4 and 3gp not record.

    I just bought the motorola e398 phone. very fun phone to use. I have noticed that with some songs i play on the phone, the phone starts vibrating too much,causing rattling of the case, which is very annoying. does everybodys phone do this or is it just mine? Is there any way to tuen the vibrator off?

        Hello! I'm about to get this phone tomorrow, so I really hope that it's as good as it seems! I have two questions:

        1. Does the 'Video' function mean that i'll just be able to download mpeg4 formatted files, or can I also record so many seconds of video via the camera lens [or whatever it requires]?

        and...

        2. Roughly how many mp3 songs can the Motorola E398 store?

        ____________________________________________

        Please can somebody e-mail me with the answers these questions? I'd really appreciate it and find it very useful.

        Thankyou! :)

          everything seems good. mp3 or 3gp video can play well except the speakerphone sound not enough loud.

            I find the damn earphones that motorola provided very uncomfortable,and the sound quality leaves alot to be desired.I know that those earphones don't do justice to the true sound quality of the E398,because I have tried a pair of Sony earphones connected to a 2.5 mm adapter with the phone,and it sounds real sweet.

            My question is does anyone of you know of any good earphones that are natively 2.5mm?I don't wanna use the adapter because its pretty long,looks unsightly and could potentially damage the phone jack.

                You don't need to upgrade software of your phone just to have sms delivery report. You only need one software : P2KTools to enable sms delivery report. And many2 others hidden feature. For link to this software try to read user opinion C380 in this website. That's software is for all Vxxx, Cxxx and Exxx Motorola Series. Try it !!!

                                  the best way to copy mp3's to the flash card is, on phone, got to connections, usb, then sellect memory card, when you conect phone to pc it will come up a as removable storage, drag and drop eny files to it, rem to use phone tools, switch setting back to data/fax for usb

                                    to go_anna40: The best way to put mp3's on the T flash is to use a card reader to drag and drop files. In other sites reviewing the E398, they always recommend connecting the phone w/o the T flash when using the MPT. I have observed that with some phones, including mine, the MPT is hostile to the flash card and will corrupt it, but I think it depends on your S/W version. You have been warned.

                                      to katie-tweddle I have seen a problem like yours in a demo phone once. The software version of that phone is 90R. What is your S/W? If it is the same, might be a S/W defect. Your phone still under warranty? Why not bring it back for an upgrade or they can replace the phone. Hope this helps.

                                        To Katie Tweddle-you prohably have a corrupted file somewhere...check the sound files in your phone's memory.
