So no direct access to the shortcuts? Wow? And how does se call it now, longcuts? Sorry, but its really a joke of se... Next time to record mp3 or make a pic will be the main features and i can download an app to be able making calls...

my orange k700 has no joystick shortcuts at all. only the down direction ones which go to the shortcuts on the screen.
this is a serious screw up by orange.... what happens if the button on the joystick fails? you have no way of getting to the desktop icons at least on the t610 you can just flick the joystick right and you are on the first icon on the desktop. i believe the t68 was the same too. i just hope they fix it soon as well as the extra camera button they added by taking the more button away.

Actually there
is a way of accessing the desktop menu without using the joystick, though it's somewhat long-winded.
If you press * as if you were locking the keys, then press * again you'll notice that it says 'more' under the right softkey. If you press that key a menu will appear, the first option of which is 'main menu.' Press the 1 key and it'll take you to the desktop.
In short - * * right softkey 1
Hope this helps

cool thanks for that! bit long winded tho. i had an argument with an orange muppet yesterday about it. he says that orange put features into the software that the phone may not support. errmmm he obviously didnt have a clue. he claimed orange write the software for the phone. when i started correcting him he tried to pass me onto someone else. why dont they just say i dont know.... i'll try and find out... instead of trying to weedle their way out of the situation?
orange have taken functionality out.. and there is no reason for it.

Having just come off the phone to orange where i also spoke to one of their resident morons i was informed that it was in fact SE's fault and not orange!! Can you belive it. I was also informed that there does not appear to be any firm plans to remedy the shortcuts issue which i find quite incredible with so many people unhappy.

Does this ** to get to 'More' also let you turn on/off silent/Bluetooth and status etc

No, the menu only contains:
Main menu
Camera
Save number
Hide number
Show number

So is the only way to get 'silent' and turn Bluetooth on and off to go to the main menu and navigate through Profiles or Connectivity?

I've managed to get Orange to agree to let me put the original SE software onto my Orange branded phone. Both Orange ad SE seemed to think it would work. It's in the shop now, I'll let you all know how it goes...
