Okay I'm getting tired of phones... They all have nasty bugs that are quite serious and some do not fufil their task of being fit for purpose.


Sharp GX15 AND GX17 (unknown FW, latset release of each model)

Loses network all the time, requires restart.

WAP was missing a "back" soft key when you visit an invalid URL (only way out is to EXIT wap and lose everything you were doing)
F
ar too slow to respond to tapped keys when dialling numbers and sending SMS (multi Tap is IMPOSSIBLY slow.), the switch dethumping circuit is about 250ms

Nokia 1100 FW v 7.34

Kept powering off previously when receiving an SMS, Predictive TXT entry weirdly went between Caps and Lowercase letters.  Firmware upgraded.

Phone now still crashes (power cycles) when browing and reading TXT's no more powering off. Phone also shows "1 message recived" and says MENU under the Navikey when it's supposed to say READ

Using the menu function "FDN or Fixed Dialling Numbers" instantly kills the simcard.

Nokia 2118 (unknown FW)

Display in engineering mode top line skews, not capable of that tiny text mode probably which indicates more problems coming.

Message alerts work when they want to, Sometimes beeps, sometimes not.

Previewing ringtones and message alerts in "profiles menu" are way louder than when it's actually ringing., Message alaert "Beep once" which is a loud distinctive sharp BEEP! becomes this dull, Puuuud when actially getting a message (IF it even goes off at all)


Panasonic VS2 (unknown FW)
Actually a very good phone, Has features like Copy and paste, use any file where you like it, Custom SMS alerts for each person but.....

Hanngs randomly when sending large MMS messages. just stops.

Predictive SMS Learns words automatically like Tha8'7, , CBD instead of bad,  and other words I might mistype and then makes them cup up instead of the normal words. EG:
I type
"i'm going to get some milk on the way home" which comes up as
"I'8m going um get Nikk no vid yay hood"
Rather frustrating...you can't remove the word, you can't make it re-use the defaults as it thinks you want to ALWAYS type VID instead of THE, Hood instead of home, Yay instead of Way

Delete option does not appear in all menu's, sometimes you have to select a different way to delete a file.

Wap browser does not let me login to M.Gmail.com, myrealbox.com or ANY other submitted forms, it deletes the password or scrmbles it up somewhere and comes up "bad password"

I-Mate
MMS client does not wrk, Feflashed the whole thing, Tried everything and still no joy.. Apart from forgetting it has a mobile phone when it shifts in and out of coverage and the very occasional crash it's very good.





ARGH!!!!!!!! (As I lose all my hair).
