And the themes in this phone are installed in the system folder which is hidden from the built-in file manager. You'll need an application like the X-plore to view hidden folders.

I just got my G700 2 days ago. The looks is cool and the keypad is fantastic. But I find that the inbterface is abit irritatig due to there are a lot of repeating links and shortcut here and there, which i think it is not neccessary. Besides that, if i am sending few songs from other phone into G700, the files is sent as a beam msg, and I ahve to save the song individually into my folder! I am quite dissapointed about this functio. In addition, there are no msg counter function for this phone.

I hear irritable low frequency sound whenever I place the phone close to my ear. But if the phone is on a standby mode, it's gone. Is this normal or not?

Whenever I unlocked the phone and put it close to my ear, I will hear a very irritating low frequency sound. Is this normal? But, when the phone is on lock mode, you don't hear the irritating sound. I will appreciate if you can give some advise on how to turn-off the sound, otherwise, I'll bring the phone back to the dealer. Thanks!!!! Other than that, the phone is great!

The battery does not have to be charged for 10 hours. It is recommended to charge the battery for 4 hours the 1st 4 times with the phone off.

The sound quality of this phone is very good. The supplied headset is pretty average and is the standard SE headset that is supplied with the non-Walkman phones. Getting the HPM-70 or something like that can really transform this phone into a jukebox. The Walkman 3 player is also nice and can entirely be operated with finger tips like the iPhone.
The camera on this phone is quite good. However the colours are a bit exaggerated though.
The phone is also very slim and light, making it a good choice for women and girls.
Battery life is unimpressive though. Lasts for just one and a half day.
UI is slow. Period.
Notes app does not work in the phone that I have. Don't exactly know what the problem is. Trying to open it always gives the message "In use". Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
The pre-installed Blackberry connect software caused the phone to freeze every time. So had to uninstall it.
If anyone has anymore queries, ask them here. I'll try my best to answer them. :)

Hi I'm wondering what age level people think about this phone, as in what age level of people should own or use this phone. Just wondering because I might get it for my daughter but don't know if its too adult because its stated as a business phone.

Irina, 02 Jul 2008Hi!! My husband got 2 weeks ago... Battery - he has to charge it every night! Is it normal??... moreTurn of 3G, set the brightness to 70% and enable power save to activate after 1 min. With that it should last you much longer... mine could last at least 3 days with occasionally sms and short calls, a few camera snaps and listening to the radio.
