What letter do you get when you connect with 3G. All I get is G and E,its bloody slow too:-(.I have an unbranded mocha W890i.
With standard 3G I get a 3G Icon and a "G" left of the reception bar. If it is HSDPA, it shows the blue 3G and an "H" at the reception bars.

@mrllcoolj:
when looking closely at your phone I get the feeling that it isn't a orgininal SonyEricsson at all. With mine there isn't a recessed border around the keypad as is on yours.
At least it definitely has a different housing. Either it is branded or it isn't a SE at all. Where did you get it from?
But if it is an SE: try to use the left / right button, because in the shortcut-menu there should be some tabs at the top to select from...

like Xellar said, its a crystal case to protect the phone that's all. the phone is on orange and i got it direct from them as an upgrade to my w810i.

Hi, is it true that battery life in this phone is not that good?
I've heard that it needs to be recharged daily with normal use...
Also, is the software stable?
thanks in advance,

Oh, dude, your operator must have branded your phone. That's not how the activity menu is supposed to look like/work. I suggest you debrand it (via DaVinci, for instance). For info. on how to do it, just search around the forum.
Debrand? you mean with orange written all over it? yeah it has, and it also came with that horrible Orange Homescreen, which fortunately you can turn off under settings (you couldn't on other phones such as nokias). I've never heard of DaVinci. how easy is it to use and has anyone else used it and got good results?

Battery life is normal. With normal use you can expect 3 days without charging it.
If you disable the 3G network you can expect 4 days without charge.

Hi, despite what you may have heard and what BUFFBOY says, the battery life is far from average, i get 5 days out of it, and thats with using games and talking to people, in-between charges. i do not use 3g, and bluetooth is turned off unless i need it. i keep my phone on all the time and always let the phone die before charging.

Is it?
I've had mine for a week now and only had to charge it twice. I'm sure as I reach the 5 charge cycle it will probably only have to be charged once a week.
Regarding the light sensor. It seems to get brighter if its bright and darker when its dark?
shouldn't it get brighter when its dark and darker when its bright that would make more sense no?

I'd be surprised if the battery life was poor as I'd have thought it would be pretty similar to the W880i and that was usually a good performer, also I believe the screen completely shuts down on standby.
