Ok.. this has got to be the most annoying phone there is..Motorola seems to have dedicated their software to annoy me.

1) Maasssively slow!!

2) No multiple alarms

3) Can't change the functions of the soft keys

4) Setting voice commands, and shortcuts, it doesn't allow you to chose create SMS, alarm, set profile to normal.. etc

5) Requires a minimum of pressing the buttons 5 times to change a profile.

6) No way to easily enter a reminder

7) Caller groups, when you set a ring tone for a certain group, no matter what profile you chose the one you chose for the group will always be used. (This is a problem when you only want the phone to beep when a call comes)

8) Operator logo.. you can't remove it, its not centered, and has the most hideous cyan shade to it.

9) Minimum of 3 button presses to start creating an SMS.

10) To send a SMS, you have to press send.. press options..press select(to select phonebook)...scroll to the name..press mark...press done.. then finally press send. OMG!! Why can't it just go straight to the phonebook when you want to send, and why does it have to be 'marked'??

11) Everytime the phone turns off, the camera quality, lighting, and sound setting resets.

12) Everytime you turn the phone on and off it will make the gayiest startup and shutdown sound which you cant disable.. thus you can't dsicretely turn off the phone

13) When typing SMSes, if a call comes or if you accidently hit the 'end' key(right underneath the 'delete' key) the message you were typing will be lost.


I had this phone for about 3 months now, and I think its probably one of the most badly programmed phone money can by. What do you guys thinks? and any solutions to the annoyances listed?

thnx.

i have a motorola t720 and i pretty much have the same problems... not many solutions, all you can do is fiddle around with shortcuts and stuff.... and there's no solution to the lag factor :(

you will only need one of the files, they are the same, just different format.....
sony ericssons support .jar

download the file, right click on it, send to, select either bluetooth/infrared, and select your phone...
that is all
should install by itself

did u turn on infra red on your phone?

it's actually
send to -> send to nearby computer

when you put your phone directly to the infra-port winxp should acknowledge it and you get an infra-red icon in your starttray
