W810i games?
OK nothing big, but the phone comes with 3D bowling. But you only get three frames. When I go to buy the full version, it says the phone is not capable. Any way around this?
DEBRANDING JUST DO IT
Just debranded my phone using wotanserver.com, it's the best thing you can do to your W810i if you have a cingular branded phone. The one thing that made the most difference is the web key on my cingular phone became a short cut key that you can customize to like I think five different things that you do most. It makes turning on blue-tooth very simple. So no more accidentally hitting the web key and pay to be on the Internet. I don't have a Internet plan so last month I spent over 35 dollars for accidents. Like all other threads about debranding you can use whole songs as ringtones and all that other stuff.
After debranding the phone you can go to your cingular account and have all your settings for e-mail, web, and mms sent to yo...

Bluetooth Headset preference
I'm trying my second Sony Ericsson Bluetooth headset in the past month. The first one, a HBH-610a sounded great but hurt to wear after one hour of use. I followed up with the HBH-GV435 which is soooo comfortable but doesn't sound as good as the first. I'm thinking of sending it back and buying the Plantronics Voyager 510 because of all the good things I've read about it. What about your Bluetooth headset experience with the W810. What should I look into and/or what should I avoid? BTW - I use prescription glasses out of necessity all day. Thanks for any advise you could give me.

W810 Low Earpiece Volume
To all who don't know how to fix the low volume issue. It can be fixed, my W810 earpiece volume went up by about 100%, by downloading new accoustic drivers to the phone. For more info go to howardforums.com
and look into the SE modding forum.

Album art?
It just came to me that I remember thinking that the SE W810 is capable of displaying album art while in the Walkman mode. Or am I confusing myself with what I've read of higher end SE models? If it can display the album art, how do we go about setting it up to do so?

Taking video clips longer than one minute - possible?
The default video length is about one minute which is annoying. Anyone know how to set it longer or to unlimited? Thanks.

Can you adjust the timing for the automatic keyguard ?
The default timing is 10-15 seconds, which is too short for me. Anyway to make it one minute? Thanks.
Fast forward/backward or bookmark mp3 files
This might be a dumb question, but I have really been puzzled how to fast forward/backward when playing mp3 files. On the nevigate key, when I press any of the four directions (, up, down), I only get to the next (or previous) songs on the playlist. How can I make the key work? Are there other ways to navigate within a single MP3 file?
Also, can you bookmark a place in the MP3 file so you can get back to the exact position next time?
Many thanks!

Debranding-Flashing the W810 - before and after
I was wondering if anybody has debranded their phone but lost their stored content after the procedure. I casually searched along this theme but I didn't see anybody report on this. Also, I'd like your folks' recommendation on why you chose your website to handle the debranding. What made you choose Davinci over Wotanserver and vice versa.
Leather Case
Just got this phone. I am looking for a nice leather case.. Most the stuff I find at Cingular stores and kiosks look generic. Any suggestions?

Figured I'd ask here now...
Hey all... I tried asking this question in the Cingular forum since there seems to be a high volume there but didn't get a response so why not try here. Any answer would be appreciated.
Hello... I was thinking about joining Cingular/ATTT and I believe I found the right phone for me. The Sony Ericsson W810 looks like the perfect fit for me because of the fantastic battery life, FM radio/MP3 for when I work (Which is always outdoor) and for the gym and from what it seems like good reception. Now my question is, I read on Cigular's website that this phone has advanced XHTML web browsing, what the hell does that mean? Since working outdoors I really need radar on my phone and purching apps after paying $20/MO isn't going to happen so I was ...

One simple question about this phone...
I've never owned a candybar-style phone before and am just curious about how it can differ from a flip phone. With a flip, I just close the phone up, and don't really have to worry about the small buttons on the side of the phone being pressed.
How easy is it to lock and unlock the keypad on this particular phone?

Preventing unwanted internet sessions
Other than locking the phone, is there a way to block the command associated with the MEdia Net key to start an Internet session? I could have sworn I saw something in the menus that accomplishes this. Has anybody seen this too or am I just dreaming?

how to bookmark place in mp3 files
Is there a way to create multiple bookmarks in various mp3 files to later pick up exactly where I left from and continue on? I listen to 1+ hr long files such as audio books and it is a major pain to find where I was.
On a related issue, scrolling through the mp3 file is also very slow. For 2-3 minute music files it might be just fine but try going to the middle of a 1 hr file and it takes forever. Is there a faster way of scrolling through the length of a single file?
Thanks much

worth the hype?
Just wondering if this phone is really worth all the hype? Is the signal really that good? Then regarding the earpiece volume while talking to someone, is it really that low? Any insite would be greatly appriciated.... Also, is there another phone that is coming out (or already out) that is better then this one??
