Okay, I have one thing to say that is really stupid with this phone. After you use the Camera application and close the lens, the app stays running in the background. This makes sense for all other apps, but you can't really multitask with the Camera application. It is such a memory hog that Task Manager should just shut it down when you close the lens. Hopefully SE will fix this sometime soon. Anyone agree?

^^^ Try killing off apps that maybe running, probably low memory is why your getting crashes. Otherwise give the phone a re-boot to flush the memory.

the operating system will automatically shut down applications as it needs more memory, and it does this by priority
in reality there should be no need to manually close applications

Has anyone noticed that they are starting to get more memory the longer you have the phone and the more restarts you do? When I first got the phone, it had about 13 MB at startup before updating. After firmware update, I had around 14 MB, and eventually it got up to 15 MB and stayed there for a while. But today, I saw my first 16.2 MB on startup! Now each time I startup, I have over 16 MB. The most recent one was 16.4! Is there any logical reason for these gains and is anyone else experiencing a similar phenomenon?

1. Volume level of the P990. This is okay for me but I have now tested a K800 and the sound levels to be much higher, so I know what Spawn is talking about.

Hehe Jah, see i was right all along...its not so much the quality of the audio playback on the p990i, its the actual overall volume thats of concern to me.
But doesnt really bother me anymore as i dont use the p990i as my audio player, been using the k800i and it works superb with much better volume than the p990i. Shame realy as i bought a 4gb mem stick pro duo for the p990i.

i also notice the phone is getting more stable everyday...the answer maybe that, because i donīt check memory often
also, i think we can expect a new firmware soon, just look at what anotherguest, developer of ScummVm for UIQ 3 says here

Latest firmwares for M600 and P990 has distored sound due to a bad fix in the audio integration. Will be fixed in a new upgrade. (Fix is already implemented, but has to go out to the upgrade site).

Dunno mate, the most i get after the update and quite a few re-starts is about 14 mb of ram at startup. After running a few apps, it goes down to about 7-8mb of ram...most of that is taken up by worldmate pro program i recently bought...takes about 1.5mb of ram for itself:eek:, so quite a memory hog the program is.
At the mo i have 7.2mb of ram available....thats with the media player running for the quick menu transitions and also worldmate pro.

I believe that all those bugs will be fixed once the new releases of the firmware are publised, but anyhow I havent got the P990i yet since it is expected to be on the shops within this week or the next. I've been waiting for this for ages now. A bit off-topic but the price listed in Greece is 645.
