You mean you get charged MMS prices to send a Smiley?

Not a smiley, but those animations which I suppose are smileys in a way, but on all older SE phones you could send them in a text message. Then Vodafone munted that up, and now by the sounds of it, SE has taken the same route.

they were sent as EMS's (i think thats the right abbreviation)
Yes, that's the correct abbreviation and at least according to the wihite paper, EMS is still supported in C905 as well. Sounds like a bug to me. Anyone has tried to contact SE support about this to get an explanation ?

I have not heard many complaints as yet. Is this phone quite stable from the word go then? Though im sure it will have some bugs no phone is perfect.

Exactly. My C905 is running totally fine (Apart from more issues with GPS settings!). When I bought the K850i, it was clear within 48 hours there were lots of things wrong with it.
So I got Wayfiner running, but now I get a message saying the GPS can't recieve a signal. Any ideas?
is the gps reciver turned on in the menu? you can activate and inatctivate the gps recvier.

its so annoying with the animations turning my sms into mms on voda, as I think the animations are really kewl but not when they charge 36p for it
!
so can anyone confirm if the c905 does this on any other uk pay monthly tarrif because it was mentioned earlier that this is a generic problem (gutted if so!!) i'd well cancel my current vodafone deal if another provider had kept the animations on the c905 ems
apart from the above with animations, ---I wish they did what o2 does and charges 4 texts from ur free texts allowance for mms. For the last 2yrs since i swapped from o2 to voda ive hardly sent a picture msg or animation as 36p per go ontop of your monthly bill soon adds up

Anyone on Vodafone I would highly recommend debranding it like I did the moment I received my phone.
Costing £8.33
Davinciteam is the one I used.
Select this firmware:
C905 R1BA038 CID52 CUSTOMIZED UNITED KINGDOM WESTERN-EUROPE - EN EU CA NL FR GL DE PT ES TR PL
And everything is all sorted

I can confirm that this happens on generic firmware, it might be different on some other branded firmware, but i wouldn't count on it. If SE themselves have done this, its unlikely networks are going to change it, I'm sure they love this idea
@Bonovox
the phone is stable, apart from the tiny bugs, but they are bugs, and don't affect phone performance. Had i little hiccup today. Was taking a picture, and there is sometimes a bit of a pause between the photo being captured, and the 'saving' dialogue appearing (the picture is still taken correctly though) and at the same moment i did this, i got a delivery report for a text i had just sent. The phone just kept vibrating for about 5 seconds, then all was well. TBH I'm not surprised its doing this, its still first release, and its saving 8MP images whilst multitasking. Compared to the K850, this is an absolute godsend!!
