    There a nice little phone but I've seen a few with glitches, I've had a look around and I can't see any option to enable the messages to be notified on the main screen.....

    Do you have it long?

    Have you tried resetting the phone, make sure you back up everthing first..

    i have it a few months.the strange thing is it started off gran, being notified on main screen and after a month or so its being changing over and back every few weeks

    Back up any photos and stuff you have and save all your contacts to the sim....

    go into factory settings and restore factory settings, the code is 12345....

    see how that goes....

    i was looking at that phone today what do you think of it ?

    Great phone for the money
    Only annoying thing I find...... the rear cover is kind of rubber coated. I carry it in my change pocket and after about 6 weeks, it looks like its years old :(
    Suppose a new cover will always have it like new again

    Apart from that, cant say I have any issues at all. Reception is excellent, call quality is excellent and overall, even when I had about 1500 sms between inbox and sent items, it functions very fast between menus. One slight issue, and maybe its just me..... I sometimes find when replying to a text, that I inadvertently hit the red/end button instead of the 3 for def and it saves the message to drafts and I have to reopen it and continue. Dunno if thats just me and my fingers or a common thing, but again, its very rare, so not an issue

    i got that phone on upgrade 2 weeks ago and the same thing happens to me writin a text it's very annoyin isnt it

    Ah! Good to hear it.............well, not good, but you know what I mean :D
    Thought it was just me!
    Yeah, I think the problem is there is not enough of a gap between the 3 key and the red key and its very easy hit it every now and again. Its very annoying alright, but apart from that, its a great little phone

    By the way, can you type in *#0000# and see what firmware version you have and then go to the video recorder and see what is the max resolution you can choose?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,496 ✭✭✭✭guil


    v 07.16
    RM-364
    variant 134.03
    640x480 is the max resolution i have

    Yeah. Mine was on something like 6.2 originally and I'm sure 640 x 480 wasnt there, but I upgraded and have same as yourself. Was just wondering if I am dreaming or was that one of the changes made in 7.16

    they're talking about the 3120 classic, not the 3120. the 2610 would be a big downgrade from the 3120 classic
