SOUTH AFRICA - I got my P990 06/01/07 and returned it to Vodaworld on 07/01/07. The phone hangs and switches off during applications, especially while on the Web. They upgraded the softwear 08/01/07, but the phone still does it. Is there anything else they can do or should I just throw it agains a wall?

Shezzi, the R9 firmware gets all the bugs out, the R9 will make your phone faster generally in any application, it is now able to run more applications at the same time, and the performance, the camera and stablity increased sharply.

Yeah Vince, the problem was something was bad when you updated your phone for first time, sometimes it happens, I got some problems when trying to install it to my phone, it downloaded the Firmware but when uploading it to the phone the application just closed and uploaded 10%, 18%, 25% until I tried several times until it got updated, since that day the phone has been ok! Maybe a ghost data cable was attached, since sometimes the application in the phone doesn't close by itself or it just hangs up, if it happens try to restart the phone.

I'm in Egypt - The cost of this phone is 5000 Egyptian Pounds = ~ $ 850 (One $ = 5.73 LE) - The average price outside Egypt is $ 570. The increase in price is ~ $ 300. I have 3 questions: (1) What is its Manufacturing Country (China, Finland or others). (2) What are the buying box contents. (3) From where I can buy it with $ 570, or less, in our middle east area and not from Egypt.

i bought a P990 a few days ago from dubai as an upgrade to my disintegrating p900.
i have read reviews and comments about this phone hanging in the first few hours of usage, and that the phone is really slow.
so far, i have not encountered a problem with the phone whatsoever.
d phone came with the R7 firmware installed. whats so good about the R9 firmware thats available for the phone?
is there a sharp increase in the phone's performance, or is it only to the internet function?

yeah Krlos, the update was completed before i unplugged the usb cable. so i re-updated my phone and i made sure i follow everything after the update. and then after 5 mins, the phone flashes this message and asks me to choose file trnsfer or phone mode? was there a ghost data cable attached to my phone? and after that i conected my phone to the pc and clicked on the icon on the task bar to safely remove the usb device, and so far, everythings ok now. The phone doesnt act up now as if its in the usb mode.
overall, the phone is fast!

Hey sticko, yeah that is true browser is kind of slow and a bit weird but with the R9 firmware it is better, it is also faser and it opens directly now, yeah and I also agree that the MS Pro Duo are very expensive, but well there are now up to 4Gb and P990 has support up till 8Gb and that is a lot of memory! And about TV out is not much needed, you better connect the phone through bluetooth as a multimedia viewer and it looks copmpletely good as with TV out and better wirelessly!

I have used a SE P910 for about 2 years and never had a serious problems and believe me I have used most of the features if not all offered by P910. The only thing that gave problem was the Bluetooth, when I was online with my phone via PC’s Bluetooth dongle it used halt when I disconnect the session with IE PC dial-up connection. Other than that it was super. I had 512mb card all other accessories and the like the phone was a bomb! I think it goes with your luck some people are naturally unlucky. Perhaps you should get another P990 or rather try W950 – referring to ‘EC’
