Guest Brody Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Great news about returning to homescreen after a call if keys are locked, shame about calling still showing number insted of name!
Guest tomesy Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I tell you what annoys me - only being able to have 1 SMS number per contact. When I have contacts who have 2 mobiles, I have to create a seperate contact entry to be able to SMS that number. Has this been fixed?
Guest Animefan Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I Makes me irritated to! The contact thing has SO many different things (email 1,2 and 3 or all these phonethings) so why just kill one of the email things and put an Mobile Number 2 iN!?
Guest Brody Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I agree with 2 mobile slots, Paul, can u say something to them, this is needed!
Guest Lexxy Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Just a quickie, my SPV is currently app unlocked, will applying this upgrade mean I will have to unlock again??
Guest the loc-man Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I know its prob been asked loads Paul but when can we expect to see the 1.6 ROM update available for download to us users? I can't wait for the SMS fixes, can you please give us a few other hints as to whats been fixed and what is new please I take it that the 1.5 has now been scrapped? why was this? why didn't they release this in July whenever it was due and then release this as well? 1.5 must have had some fixes for us? thanks LOC
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 1.6 shouldn't re-app lock (IPSM is untouched). Not 100% sure on the release date yet, "soon", as always :/ UK 1.5 will now no longer happen, it was delayed due to issues getting it working properly (IE half working SMS counter on e100 1.5 release) 1.6 no longer "clunks" when you click the to box in a new message :) As we've already pointed out, the call screen now times out after a few seconds too.
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 i think the internet explorer slowdown when listing history items has now been fixed, by listing only the first half dozen entries, and not the entire last. Dont quote me on that though, i cant remember exactly how it worked before :) Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest Pagemakers Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Are T9 words ALWAYS remembered? Is it now possible to resend a text message that failed to send first time?
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 T9 isn't saved. I've never had a failed SMS message, however trying to send a SM with radio off told me it couldn't be sent, but still left a copy in sent items...(not sure if its the same thing, i keep a copy of all sent items).
Guest Pagemakers Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 T9 is one of the biggest failings of the phone. It's pathetic that after several updates this major bug remains.
Guest Kallisti Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 A copy in "sent" items is pretty useless as you can't re-send it. You can forward it, but you'd have to remove all the crappy headers it adds. Oh, and hasn't there only been one update?
Guest Pagemakers Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 2 if you count what's in the e100
Guest kingbing Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 I tell you what annoys me - only being able to have 1 SMS number per contact. Â When I have contacts who have 2 mobiles, I have to create a seperate contact entry to be able to SMS that number. One "solution" to this is to put extra SMS numbers in the email slots. Not nice, but it works...
Guest Goutetsuu Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 with this up and coming update do you know if they have sorted the problem where when you recieve an SMS that starts with +44 and you have a contact stored without the +44, whether it shows the contacts name despite the fact the stored contact doesn't have + 44. as before if the contact doesn't have +44 at the beginning of the number, the phone with only show the the number with +44 at the beginning and not the contacts name even though they are the same numbers anyone understand me, don't think i wrote that very clearly Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest Brody Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 I would imagine this wont be fixed as the phone is triband and therefore may confuse two numbers that are the same apart from the country prefix...
Guest mcwarre Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 One "solution" to this is to put extra SMS numbers in the email slots. Not nice, but it works... Cool. Never thought of that thanks :)
Guest morpheus2702 Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 Sorry but has this thread degenerated into another 'wish list' rant? Sure I'd love my E100 to make toast but I'm not expecting it to be in 1.6, never mind how much I want it to be there.
Guest Brody Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 I think the reason that it is looking alittle lik a wishlist is that Orange are obviously taking into account the views of the MoDaCo moderators!
Guest morpheus2702 Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 OK 1p text messages, free GPRS (for ever) and a new smartphone FOC with every OS upgrade.
Guest Brody Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 Hmm, whats the problem here?! I see no issue in letting the moderators know what we want fixed with the software as they have been asked to beta test the 1.6 update. This therefore means that they will be in contact with the right people at Orange. There's no need to be upset by this! Just ignore the topic if you don't like it!
Guest morpheus2702 Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 For f***s sake I am having a laugh! Lighten up!
Guest Brody Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 Ok ok! U just seem to be questioning something that is reasonable, i wasn't taking your free gprs seriously! :)
Guest morpheus2702 Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 No worries! :) Surely the Orange bods should be steered towards the Wish List section? Just think there is a place for what we can realistically expect from this update and then there is a place for everything else.
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 If you're that unhappy about the features that have been fixed, firstly don't update your phone and secondly, we won't give you a tip off next time ;p Lets try and keep the topic on the new features :)
