> Bitterly disappointed with SE P910
Bookmark topic
I've owned various Nokia phones, and I have a Sony Ericsson Z600 and P910i.
What can I say? If my first Sony Ericsson was the P910i, I'd say that SE and their phones are utter ***** But that's hardly surprising when you take into account how my P910i has been acting, and how I've been fobbed off by customer service despite paying nearly 1,000 for the damn thing.
I was also going to get the K750i, but I've certainly decided that's a no-no. It costs 500, and after reading how many problems everyone else has been having, I've no doubt I'll have loads too and the way SE treats their customers, it's not worth it.
What problems are there with my P910i?
Well, firstly a problem when reading text messages. I click on one message, but it opens the one above. This can get somewhat annoying, although isn't the end of the world especially when SE just said Oh, it's not a problem, just remember to click the one below.
Now, the phone doesn't work at all. There's a white screen I cannot even switch off by holding the off button. It just doesn't work. The only way is to take out the battery. I haven't even bothered to phone SE yet because my experience with them has been FAR LESS than satisfactory.
It said there was some error 11 - I've no idea what that is though. And taking out the battery, waiting a while, putting it back in and restarting doesn't help.
So I thought I'd try out here on the boards.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

change your firmware, recalibrate your screen, remove any dubious recently installed software...
The P910 is a great phone.

Ok,
Well thanks for the replies everyone. I decided to go and update the firmware, and so far everything seems to be alright - touch wood!
But, the problem is I cannot restore a backup I made. Before updating the firmware, I backed up all the contents of my phone which amounts to 7MB... but now I cannot restore it.
It says "NOT CONNECTED" despite being connected. I can do everything else - synchronise, install software, etc. - but not restore my backup.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

This happened to me when I updated the firmware. I rebooted leaving the syncstation plugged in and it worked upon restart. Bizarre, but the phone has been solid as a rock since the update.
