Guest beckett1 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 just to name a few probs with my spv: bad quality call quality, including buzzing unable to receive call, many people have said they tried to call we I deffo had my phone on. Crap battery life, needs to be charged EVERY night, even tho I never used it 1 day! I will decide this weekend if I will keep it or not. But if these bugs take as long at my old SPV did a being resolved (over a year and still waiting for 1.6) I don't think i can last with this phone buts whats my alternative?

Guest g_lined Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 I've just sent mine off today! I sure hope the new one works! Nice of them to offer an exchange. Well they swapped it! I got my Viking 128Meg SD back today. It works fine - straight off! They sent me a single cell SD card...it seems that's the trick! The one I bought originally was a multi-cell one. If you have a Viking card and it doesn't work email viking support, they will exchange it free of charge. They're quick and efficent also! I'm very excited to finally have an mp3 player! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Toyota-F1.com Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 Advice please, is this a good price: http://shop.game.net/ViewProduct.aspx?cat=...1138&mid=323038 :?: Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chavyboy Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 I found this today. Seems like the only ones which don't have compatibility issues are Panasonic, and Lexar. PAn. is a good bit more expensive, but this looks like a good deal: http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/in...oduct_uid=51048 Anyone seen cheaper than that for a 256?

Guest chavyboy Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 Clearly, I'm a fool. That price is rather sneakily without VAT. The real price is £57, plus delivery. Sorry if I got your hopes up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Toyota-F1.com Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Are these good prices: 64MB Panasonic SD Card for just over £20 and 128MB Panasonic SD Card for £40-and-a-bit? Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pd.ryder Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 I wish I knew how to find and post a link to the post I submitted a while ago. I had exactly the same problems with Viking 128MB SD. Worked for ages in my E100 but failed completely in the "better" E200! Sold it to a mate with an E200 - works fine, both 200's are not "updated" with that glorious upgrade from Orange. There was a poll done re SD card compatability at that time, anyone got access to the results? I'm in the market for a 256MB card and obviously don't want to waste time / money with a duff 'un. There are a couple of comments in this thread about MP3's - do you mean WMA's or will the E200's Windows Media Player support MP3 now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lingerhosen Posted July 3, 2004 Report Share Posted July 3, 2004 Had the same Viking problem, the damn thing wouldn't even fit properly! Got a speedy refund from 7dayshop.com (good lads!) and have just received a Transcend 256Mb 45X speed for £47 from Offtek (Within about 48 hours as well, cripes!!). According to their website, they only use the single layer cell cards, not multi-layer. Not sure if this applies to their bottom of the range cards, but definitely to the 45X and 65X speed versions. All the other websites I sent e-mails to didn't reply and didn't say what kind of card they used in the tech specs. Fits snug as a bug and as yet, working a treat in my E200! :D I believe the Sandisk Ultra II cards are a similar deal, but cost more than the Transcend 45X as they are the same speed as the 60X version, (which I'm guessing is of not much use to us anyway using USB1.1!). Their bottom of the range cards can be EITHER SLC or MLC, which is why they work for lots of people but not at all for others! Not worth the gamble if you ak me if you have to spend money sending them back to get a good one... Definitely recommend both Offtek and Transcend thus far... *crosses fingers* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted July 3, 2004 Report Share Posted July 3, 2004 Lingerhosen, Could you post their websites?? 256Mb for £47? And it works? Sounds good to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lingerhosen Posted July 4, 2004 Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 I ordered it from www.offtek.co.uk and like I say, it was very speedy, but I couldn't tell you if their customer service was up to scratch as I haven't had to use it! It has a compatability matcher on the site that said the basic Sandisk would work in the e200, but I'm sure that's not always the case, though I believe they do guarantee compatibility if they suggest it? Not sure who would pay the return postage though... I took a gamble with the Transcend card because logic told me it should work as it was a SLC. (Be warned though, I did see a couple of posts about SLC cards that DIDN'T work, one of them being a 512mb Integral and one a Sandisk ultra, but I don't know if these were rectifiable by formatting the cards...). Plus the website info. looked promising! www.transcendusa.com All a bl**dy palaver though, considering you don't see other SD card device users faffing about which card to buy! Good old Orange/HTC! Sigh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
