Sony Ericsson W600i / W550i

Does anyone know if there is a way reprogram the w600i to increase the volume on the mp3 player? Some songs that are recorded louder sound fine and others seem to be too quiet, even with the volume up all the way. I have tried at times to leave the headphones in while in my car instead of listening to the car radio in case I would get a call but at highway speeds, once again, it seems too quiet. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

i just have a quick question. i used to have the t637, for the t637 there was this little adapter that you could hook on the phone, and then use my own ear bud. i have the w600i. i just want to know if anybody knew if there is one of these adapters for the w600i? i know that it comes with a cord that has it on the end, but it also has a mic on it, and the cord is too long. so it doesn't work for me, since the sound gets muffled from the mic, and the cord then becomes 6 feet long. many thanks for any help you can lend.

I have had the w600 for a little more than a month, and listen to this::

the loop antenna came apart
the blue cover thing snapped on the side
it blanks out about once aday

now i have had this phone replaced twice
once for the white screen of death
and once for the loop antenna coming apart,...and both have happened once again

now I know if i call warrenty extange they will send me the same phone. now I hate this phone and dont want it any more so could cingular replace it with something else?

Can I put ring tones for certain people in my phonebook? I ask because when I try it never works and the ringer I have for my phone calls goes off not the ringer I set for that person.

i tried to transfer some mpeg files but it wont let me view them.



Any suggestions

Im not sure if there is a problem with my handset or I am just expecting too much from the w600i. My old phone, which was the sharp tm-150, had a macro switch on the side, you would switch it down for close photos (1-3 inches) or up for regular photos (a few feet away) and it took remarkably clear photos in either case. I recently upgraded to the sony ericsson w600i expecting an even better camera, since this is a 1.3 mega pixel and my old phone was just a 1 megapixel. However, the picture quality seems not as impressive with the ericsson, especially up close. On my old tm 150 i could take a photo up close of a tv guide listing or any text for that matter and it would come out crystal clear, but it seems that with the w600i the closer i get ...

I had set up the screen saver on my W600. I did not like the feature and turned it off. Now when I leave the phone idle it takes a long time for the phone screen to go blank. Is this normal? Thanks

I have this phone synced up with my G5 (internal Bluetooth) and I can't move it more then a foot away from the computer without the connection dropping off. I can get my Motorola v710 15 feet across the room and the connection doesn't drop off. Have any of you experienced this? How about performance with headsets?

Thanks,

Brad

Does anyone know what mobile communications chipset is in the SE W600i/W550i? Is it the Qualcomm MSM6275?

Ok I'm thinking of buying this phone one question is can this phone use SD cards if not what phone would? 🙂

This happened to my 600i and my fiance's too. Downloaded WorldClock 3D from the sony ericsson site. After running the application, started getting the wsod after closing WorldClock 3D. Phone seemed to keep rebooting itself. Eventually, phone came back online. After phone booted successfully, noticed I was missing all my downloaded games, applications and ringtones. Seemed like phone reset itself and deleted anything that didn't come with the phone.
I recommend staying away from this app.

take the baterty out for a while then put it back in

charge up your phone for a while because the rattery could be low

while connected to the usb cable make sure to close all the programs running then disconnect from the computer first because reports was that there have be many causes of wod with the usb not being taking out right.

you could also try a filmware update to help also ehich people says work

go to sonyericsson.com to download the filmware

Loved this feature on my older Sony Ericsson phones but it does not appear that the w600i has a bug when it comes to recording phone calls. When a call is in progress and you do the following:

More -- Record
Recording 0:00 appears on the screen it beeps then goes away


In the my stuff sounds folder the recording name is there but it is only 4 - 6 byes

If you go to the long process

More -- Main Menu -- Enterainment -- Record Sound

Recording 0:00 appears on the screen it beeps and then it goes away


My phone is unlocked and thought that it may have been a cingular restriction. I used my Tmobile Sim and got the same thing. I've seen on other boards that users are experiencing the same thing but no responses from anyone...

Is this the pre-paid model number?

I'm trying to get the software that came with the phone to work on my computer. It get to about 3/4 done and just stops. Is anyone else having this problem? I've tried to use the CD and the download on the the sonyericsson...It keeps happening. AHHH please help! thanks.
