that phone takes amazing pictures
Yes, it does. Sony Ericsson phones are consistently praised for their high quality digital cameras. I just bought a W900 yesterday (I hope it comes tomorrow!), and many reviews said it has the best camera in any phone to date. SE is really a great brand, and with their new phones coming out, like the K610, they are only going to get better. :)

I am thinking of getting this phone soon, ?150 (or cheaper, depending on if discount can be gotten). My mate has one, and his joystick hasn't died on him yet.

You might want to wait for the K800, which is set to replace this model once it comes out.

I've had a problem with my phone this past few days. It started putting itself into hands free mode and even when I switch back to normal mode it auto answers all my calls and I can't hear anything, anyone have a clue?

Had a similar thing with mine - seem to recall we got them at about the same time. I solved it by switching to another profile.

As to the other probs, my joystick's holding up well (oooh, matron), but then I think I'm a bit of a freak, because I mainly use my K750i for making phone calls. :blink: :D

I got mine a few weeks ago...I figured I'd wait for some more reviews etc... Man it rocks! Only problem I'm having is when using my 1GB MS PRO DUO card, the phone takes around 5mins to fully load the file structure, during which time I cant navigate the file explorer, play any games, or even take a picture without the phone freezing for 30secs.

It's not the Memory Stick thats faulty, or the phone either, I've tried 2 other sticks, and tried this stick in 2 other SE phones, all with the same problem.

It's not much of an issue since I rarely remove the stick, or switch the phone off, I just have to remember to leave it for 5mins or so before I start taking pics or playing games. MP3s and videos work fine straight away, just the other functions.

well I have a 2GB MS PRO DUO and my K750i dont take so long, even more, I havent notice that it load the file structure, but what I dont like is to see the photos in thumbs so if in a folder I have 20 pics in 1600X12000 it take like 10 secs to open it.

Maybe in the next firmware they improve it

Pffft mine gave up on me. When I turn it on it just flashes. Light off - light on - light off - light on ... and no text on the screen.

Damn phones.

You've just received a bad handset, that's all. Get it fixed (or do what you need to do) and you'll be happy with it (Y)

Just to add a few things...

Mine is getting quite confused with the radio now. When I quit the radio the little icon appears, when I go in to it the icon goes away. It happens all the time now, and often turn the phone on and off.

Standby time is amazing on battery life, IMO. You can get about 26 hours with the radio and nothing else at a push - a real push.

I turned down the brightness a lot on the phone and it's absolutely fine. No idea if this saves battery life, but I didn't need it as near as bright as the default.

Maybe, but I'm never paying over ?200 for a phone. Although I will get it if the K800 doesn't have a joystick - it seems to be the only major problem with SE phones nowadays. Thanks for the heads up though.

Sony Ericsson have realised the joystick problem and have fixed this for the K800i. They've ensured no dust (or limited amounts) can get underneath the joystick. I really like the 'stick method.

I thought that dust couldn't get under the K750i joystick as well, and the faultiness was simply because joysticks are moving parts and break down over time.

    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta

      By Copernic · Posted

      BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

      DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
