Bookmark topic
Well lads I went on a little trip over the weekend took my p1 and my standard camera, didnt use the camera once.
The p1 did its job took a lot of pictures, all of which while the quality was not great for the shots i wanted was more then enough and as far as the music player goes it did it's job and keep 14 people happy all done through the standard phone speaker.
In my opinion i will be confident to go out taking only the phone with me as my all in one media device.
But then again I know what to expect from it, because i know what my phone is a phone first and media device second.
Only think i would love is an improved video quality but never mind.

I spoke to O2 asking 'what I have to do to resolve the green tint problem'? They advised that if it did not get fixed after three repairs then they would have to get an engineers report before they would change it.
I know this is rubbish and if I wanted to push it, I could get it changed via my 12 months warranty. As we do not know if it is a firmware or a hardware issue I was not going to pursue it.
Unfortunately my P1 has stopped charging via the mains. I have now returned it to get it repaired for this and I have also put it in for a second attempt at getting the tint fixed.
I will let you know the outcome.

Anyway to all new readers to this considering to bring your phone for 'repair' due to green tint I advise you guys don't , they will consider it software fault and will just update your software. It is very rare they will actually exchange your camera part for a new module.

I assume it's the R9J005 firmware you updated to?
Wonder if a new update is in the making... Phone is stable enough for me at this time but always nice to have improvements on speed or camera for example

@pt020
Are those pictures taken at the same time of the day, and under the same conditions e.g. lighting, position etc...
Because the before seems far too dark and has a lot of noise. The second seems like a nice clean shot during the middle of the day compared to what i can only assume is a night time shot with the first picture.
If the two pictures do not share the same conditions e.g. lighting, time of day etc then it is not a very fair comparison.
If however you have tried to make the two conditions as similar as possible and these were the results then i can only assume yopu must be over the moon because the first picture looks awful

i did made it in the same room,both A4 white page about the same time,it is always gray here in Holland so light was poor in both .... but even then when i made the first pictures i had some lighter ones and on those i had a green tint too,did try few settings and when on cloudy mode it was/is the worst,funny on cloudy mode my W800i made the best pictures.....must have a day with some sun to make normal pictures.
about the update version.... hmmm i do not have an idea,went to the site of SE and used their update service,it was last night so i think it was the latest.

@pt020,
On the home screen, tick "meer", then tick "status", scroll down and let us know your firmware version please...
Do you have a Dutch phone or a World Generic version.
Half of Holland is waiting for the new firmware, so everyone is interested to learn if you are the first to have it
