Something odd happened with my k700i this morning.

I switched it on, and I got a txt from my mate - instead of it usually just beeping and showing the little message icon (in the orange menu, by scrolling up twice on the desktop) - it actually showed a picture of my mate which I had assigned to his number, and underneath it said 'text message received from Gibbo, read now?' - its NEVER done this before!! Does this happen to anyone else?

Hi u know the latest firmware for orange k700i, can u still not get the more function? And if I go into orange shop, how long will it take to update the phone?

Thanks

Yeah it is a good mobile, It will still be concidered one of the best in November. The price will have probabably dropped by November anyway. So yeah I would get it.

@n4rut0 : What do you mean it is so cheap on Vodafone. I got it free on a contract which costs me ?15.99 if thats what you mean.

i was goin to sign up for 3G plan in here the $79 talk cap but with LG mobile that cost me $19 per month (2 years contract)

but then my friend told me to get vodafone the same plan with k700i and also the same price per month (2 years contract too)

that's what i mean. ;)

Of course SOny Ericsson is much better. :D

I got a friend who has a spare dock, it was originally for a P900, I got it off him.

I used it, my K700i fitted fine in there. But I need the drivers for the dock, I used my K700i CD (which comes with the phone) but it had no drivers.

I think I will have to get my mates P900 CD, and install the drivers from that.

My phone looks nice in the silver dock ;)

I was gonna set up WAP on my K700i but wanted to ask if GSM/CSD or GPRS would be cheaper. Is data sent even if you go to a new page?

one more thing, for the people who used the update online serice, how long did it take? mine is still on one page:

"Please wait...

Checking the installation of Sony Ericsson Update Service"

Which country are you in? If you are in the UK, and have free minutes I think wap is included in ur free minutes.

Some tariff includes GPRS data too. so...

answer to the second Q, did u have java installed?

Just updated my phone, a new thing i noticed (seemed no one really mentioned on the forum) the screen quality is much better, the backlit is brighter.

i just did it too, will see changes as time progresses.

I wanted to know why the phone doesnt synchronise with the dock. it doesnt even go on the settings. this is a p900 dock which I got off my mate. like this, i cant do jack with my phone, ie: upload stuff.

It always says:

    • I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.
    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
