> W880i Alarm couldn't wake a cat
Bookmark topic
Just bought W880i to replace 3 year old K700
I use the alarm to wake up for work - W880i alarm is pitifully quiet and useless for this (i still have to use my K700)
Should i send the phone back for a replacement or is this a know bug?
Is there a fix for this? (new firmware maybe?)
Just as an aside - the general sound quality on the W880i is very poor ('tinny' compared to K700) considering it's a 'walkman' phone - i'm not sure how Sony dare put the logo on

Well my W880 wakes me every morning and I sleep like a log. But then again, I use the x-factor theme tune and that get me up... good and proper has done for aaaages. As for tinny sound, I use earphones...

I since noticed the alarm uses ramping (starts unaudible and gets louder)
Is there anyway of disabling the ramping? (like K700) so i can use it as wake up alarm - Latest firmware?
I'm a bit disappointed in losing a radio, I am more disappointed in loosing a very good flash light
There's no-way i'm keeping my old K700 just because the W880 can't wake me up - i need a phone that can replace it
I'm on the verge of returning it

Change it for something like the K770i, K810i W810i if you want something that suits your needs.
Latest isn't always greatest.
