--> don't know exactly. It may be hidden somewhere in the phone memory (not readable from file manager). Just curious, is it some kind of FAR Manager for UIQ? Probably it can be read using that software.
and one more question is that how to stop torch when i use camera on day times.bcoz its "on" all the time when i take camera "on".
--> That's not torch, it's "flash". You can turn it off (at the camera viewvinder) by pressing thunder-like symbol, then choose A (for auto), or OFF. By selecting A, the flash will be turned ON if the light condition is underexposured. By selecting OFF, it will not be turned ON even if the light condition is very underexposured.

MS, 20 Nov 2008Great to hear ur comments.
What is the battery life ur getting ?/?Battery life is good. with moderate messaging (about 20 per day) and few calls it should go for 2-3 days before next charging. However, I found that my K660's battery life is much shorter than my friend's. So the actual battery life may vary from one handset to other.
At the top (90% above), the battery life seems to be shorter than at the range of 40-80%. At 40-80%, the battery life is at its best. At below 40% it is relatively short but still longer than 90% above. You know what i mean right? :)

The phone is so slow. Take my words on it, it looks very ugly. I read all of those comments here, before jumping in to the shop to buy this phone. Thank god that, it just got stuck when I tried to change the theme (happened in exclusive SE showroom). The guy over there had no idea and he kept on restarting the phone for almost 10 + times. Everytime I tried changing the theme it showed me " Network Busy" message and phone used to hang. Finally he asked me to go with any other model and now I have an w890i and its pretty good.
G700 - Realy sad to say that its a dumb phone in disguise.

The G900 and G700 are both very good sartphones. The G900 has the added benefit of a WiFi and 5 megapixel touch focus camera. Ive used both phones..and can certify for them. The G900, although has a bttr cam, its not as good as a 5 mp cam should be nd it only has a single led flash which isnt much for bad light conditions. the G700, although it lacks autofocus, the software more than makes up for that and you can take good pictures if u're hands arent too shaky :) also it has a dual led flash so night time pics are better. The G700 lacks a wifi though.

thank u karun and karan...
now i have decided to go for a Symbian UIQ handset.
i have dropped the plan of buying P1i because it has become pretty old. so, my choice wud be G700 or G900. eventhough G900 is better in all specs (except for the cost :) well, not a problem) , i heard complaints on its battery backup. anyone having G900 can guarentee whether the phone is reliable? pls help...

This phone will support only those symbian apps that are for UIQ 3.
Go ahead and get this phone. Its a pretty neat device, considering the price quality ratio. I'll be reviewing it on my Sony Ericsson blog soon.

i am planning to buy a new phone. i already own a SE W910. i am sick of its so called OS. so, i decided on a symbian phone. i checked the site. G700 and P1i are more suited me. but my doubt is, will this Symbian UIQ version support the softwares compatible for normal symbian ???

Hi Guys! I have my new G700 phone for a week now and so far I haven't encounter any problems ( I wish!). I've also noticed that whenever I received a message my phone didn't show up light (like what Nokia does) but it definitely rings. Another concern is the color of my unit is sandy brown (dark brown). Is this an original unit? Whenever I browse the internet the only color mentioned is silk bronze. Please help. thanks!

I have G700 for about 2 months, and it works extremely fine. I don't encounter any problem related to slow processing speed. Camera is awesome (compared with other non-AF 3.2 MPX), IMO just a little bit lower in quality than my previous K660. Plus a capability of turning on the lights during lowlight condition.
Sound is incredibly loud and clear, without much crack or noise. First time I try the music player, it really surprises other people around me. With such croud, it can be heard (loudly =D)from 5 meters away.
Messaging is quite fast, much better than previous M600. Texting is convenient due to good keypad. Tough it make some loud, same compared to K660, but that's okay.
The only problem is the bluetooth. I can't receive any file from other SE (probably only non-UIQ SE). But when I tried to send file, it works fine. However, it pose no serious problem since I usually transfer file from phone to phone using laptop. Does anybody here (preferably has G700 in hand) have experienced the same thing?

I repeat my question. Can anyone solve my problem? my G700 phone neither rings nor displays notifies when I recieve a message. I can't know whether I recieved a message or not unless I check the inbox. I don't know the reason for that. Does anyone know?

Jeri, 19 Nov 2008Hi evryone..am so mch confused abt purchase dis?i love se's sound quality..i hve already sold ... morePersonally , i think the only Plus G700 has got over N73 is..
1. More RAM , Its 128 MB
2. Touchscreen
3. Great Ergonomics
Compared to N73.. It Doesent Have.. The Important Features like :
1. AutoFocus Cam
2. Better battery .. its 2 days at moderate usage.
So i dont think u should go for G700 .. either choose G900 which had Wifi plus 5 MP cam or Go For N82/N85
