I bought this phone in May,2006.I was quite satisfied with the phone, especially, its camera. The picture quality was awesome but now, i am not getting the same clarity in pictures. Also, the pictures are not that sharp. Is there some problem with my phone camera...Please help!!!!

There is no “mute” option in video player of X700 but you can play video files in silent mode.... In standby mode, press “#” key for 2 seconds.... a “ Quiet mode activated” message will appear.... and you can see the speaker icon with cross .... Now, try to play any video file.... It will ask to you that “Play sound in quiet mode? ... Yes or No”.... Select “No” option.... The video file will be played without any sound....

Before starting softick ppp, please close the pc studio software.... and when you successfully download one software and want to download another one, just press “Add” button in java uploader and select jad file .... note that softick ppp shows “1 device(s) connected... ppp is enabled” message.... now enter ( #*5737425#) code in standby mode in X700 .... Select ppp up... usb.... serial download.... This will start downloading.... and java uploader will show “ Sending xyz ....” then “midlet list is empty” messages....
You cannot install same software again if you have installed this software in java world already.... installation will not start.... delete this software from java world and then you can install it again....
If your mobile freezes/restarts after selecting “usb” option in X700.... then try this:
1.Restart the mobile ( if already restarted then skip this )
2.right click on softick ppp icon and shutdown it then again activate it .... You can see “1 device(s) connected.... ppp is enabled” message.....
3.Now add jad file into java uploader and proceed.... This will install it ....

You purchased it a month before with no answering machine feature! From which country you belongs?... In pakistan, it comes with answering machine feature.... You have an older firmware of X700....

2- I entered Internet in the APN field and disable proxy.
3-started pc suite.
4-started softick ppp
5- upload the application 1341KB
6-entered the code #*536963#
7- press C
8- entered #*5737425#
9- selected PPP up
10 selected USB.
11-selected serial download.
The application started to download until finished and working properly.

To Fabias,
Battery life depends upon the usage of the phone. I have purchased it just a month back and the battery life is good. it lasts for around 3 days. I talk for abt an hour, listen to music/FM for an hour and check SMS.
However, if your talk time is high or if you are watching too many vids or listening to MP3 its going to come down soon. And this is a common phenomenon with every multimedia phones. Infact my friends Nokia 6270 drips down very quickly if he watches vids or listens to songs.
You can switch off the "Key-pad tones", "Key-pad lights", "Unwanted Tone -- such as the one which appears when an SMS is sent etc", "decreasing the brightness to 2". This should help you certainly.
Comparing with others, I wud say the battery life is good if not exceptional.
Thanks,
Ali

Hi Usman,
I have a problem with my handset. I do not see the 'answering machine' option in my handset. I purchased it just a month back. Is it due to some firmware upgrade?
Another thing that I would like to ask is about the video player. Is there anyway to mute the sound when the video is playing?
Also suggest the best game for this handset that I can download from GetJar.com
Thanks a lot...you rock as alwayzzz

To All:
If you tried USB installation procedure for games provided by "Azeem" (on 8 November, 2006) and unsuccessful even after all correct settings... Then check java world settings by going to:
menu...applications... java world... settings... and enter:
APN: internet
Login ID : (Keep Empty)
Password : (Keep Empty)
Proxy : Disable
and click "Save"
If you don't enter APN name, then you cannot install any java application on X700 ....
and after installation, clear the APN field otherwise you cannot access internet from midlet like Opera Mini .... and ofcourse, don't forget to enter this code after installation : ( #*536961# ) to remove any wap internet access problem....
