  • If you want free full programs go to (the sMartphone heaven). and download : Eset Antivirus Mobile ; Esmertec (for running java games) ; Vito Audio Notes (For recordings in mp3 format) ; Core Player 1.25 (For playing all kind of media files); UnRar sp; Binarys Smart Explorer ; Feadie (with this program you can download all kind of programs from internet).; and the most important program is: NETCFv2). and if you need something else contact me [email protected]. If you will download all this programs you wont nee anything. Sorry if I didn't wrote correct :-).

  • I don't know, but this phone of me constantly compains about low memory, and this is because in order to use a mp3 as a ringtone you have to copy the song to the phone's main memory i.e. it cant use it directly from flash card. Same for doing voice recordings, you cant use the flash directly for this purpose.(Although media player can access your flash.) This is a big deal since I have a 2Gb flash installed, but the phone itself has only 16mb of which 500kb is free at the moment and I cant improve on this situation. At any rate this phone has quite a lot of software bugs that I hope will be resolved someday with a firmware upgrade, but this seems unlikely as I heard that the phone is discontinued. So bad things about this phone is a lot of irritating bugs/flaws as well as poorly laid out keypad, as well as others. But I have to say for its price it is a good phone, and I especially like the windows media player embedded. Camera is average.

  • I bought my S310 (from Orange Romania where it's called SPV C100), and I'm pretty happy with it. Despite some Bluetooth connectivity issues (I couldn't manage to get it connected to a Nokia 7xxx series and a Nokia 6300 - the Nokias just wouldn't see it, but transfered successfully to and from a N70 and my wife's S-E W810i) and some occasional system blocks (probably due to relatively tiny RAM) it works like a charm. It's my first smatphone and I just hate the main menu of it, so I downloaded and installed a free frontend application, called Smart ToolKit (google it), which adds a bunch of new features, including a Windows-like Start button and menu, auto keylock, system shutdown/restart and others (btw, the system blocks may be due to this app as well, it's in beta stage). Battery lasts about a week, with at least 15-20 minutes of talking per day, occasional mp3 listening and playing. Anyway, I recommend it warmly to anyone who wants a fully-featured smartphone at half the usual price. @Simich - the memory size is a marketing scheme. What the specs tell you is the maximum memory capacity for RAM and ROM, but they both share that 64 MB. The ROM is where you install the programs (you can install them directly to the Memory Card to save memory) and the RAM is the memory used by programs to run. The maximum capacity for each oscillates according to needs and available space, so if you install all apps on the Memory Card you should allways have at least 48 MB of RAM (I have around 48, of which at least 20 ar allways free).

  • could you help? what is the max capacity for card?

  • lool..man i know one metode much easy.press and hold the red button,end call.

  • penzo just press the power key on the side and select key lock and not device lock that does not ask for a password

  • hi all Can anyone help me on how to lock the keypad of this phone without having to put a code. this code stuff is driving me maaaaaaaaaad. your help will be appriciated thanx

  • for this price you cant get better for all south africans check bid or buy for great prices on the htc s310

  • Cheap and nice phone which ensures u stability....

  • In general I'm pleased with the S310. Serious problems though with upgrading to .NET V2.0 due to memory shortage in the Store. The CeleTask utility shows the following memory status: Memory (RAM): tot/free = 43.56/25.33 Mb Store (ROM): tot/free = 15.94/ 2.57 Mb Card (mSD): tot/free = 1.94/ 1.78 Gb Installing .NET V2.0 needs at least 5.7 Mb free store memory (even when .NET's cab file is resides on the mSD card...). I don't know how to free up more Store space. I'm confused anyway because the S310 specs tells me the store (ROM) should be 64 Mb (equal to RAM) instead of the 16 that the task manager indicates...?! Help much appreaciated!

  • 1.3m camera. is not quite good at night , but it has many features and settings 1.2bluetooth supprted.

  • I recently purchased one of these so called smartphones from Orange in Sutton Coldfield England. I had various questions answered and they even turned off the annoying orange menu bar for me. I went away happy with my purchase and headed back to sunny walsall and charged the phone up over night. When i got up i thought i would put the phone through its paces as i had previously owned an SPV C500 Mobile phone and it had a terrible problem with sms ringer. What problem i hear you ask. The problem is that when someone sends you an sms text message and the ringer is set for instance Mission Impossible any normal phone inc symbian phones if you touch any key or the green answer key the ringtone normally switches off promptly but this phone carrys on ringing until the end of your mp3 or midi. This is wrotten design from HTC. If the rest of there phone range is like this then the company should be avoided like a bad smell. I wont be buying HTC or SPV phones anymore and neither should you guys.

  • For �59.99 from the orange shop on payasyougo its a bargain!!! i have had a n70 w810i and a d600 and this beats them all ok it might have a 1.3mp camera BUT! its fast and has a hell of alot more features and the fact that you can run anything on it its ace also the best feature has to be the battery 1200mah! the battery life is amazing i had music on 3/4 volume for about 4-5 hours and still had 87% battery left! anyway great phone especialy for the price!

  • Does anyone know how to sync this phone to a MAC?

  • This is a great phone, I love it. So much beter than then the symbian platforms. And yes it has instant messaging, msn mobile and it is awesome. Because it is based on microsoft mobile 2005 there is literally thousands of applications you can download for this phone. I have completly changed the interface on my phone, with right menu. Now it exactly like the full windows menu system

  • this is a good phone. i downloaded gps from the leaf website it helped a lot. great sound great picture quality. i would really recommend the phone.

  • i was thinking about buying this phone.. does it really have instant messaging? (cus only here i saw this speciffication)

  • Best phone ever :) My phone is call orange spv c100 same as HTC S310

  • I have user many other phones before:nokia, moto,ericsson, siemens. they all have some minor problems. but this one is terrible in reception. although HTC phones all have strong office functionality , which is why I chose it this time. However, most of my friends complained to me : why I ignore their call? or it sounds like I picked up the phone and hanged up immediately....... I tried many things , such as changed a new sim card, compared with friends' signal strenth in same location...... I am 99% confident this phone really have big problem in the most fundamental function: reception!

  • shop around first

  • Hi - I'm interested in buying this as a replacment phone for my dying mobile and iPaq H5500. I need to have Avantgo and Sync to MS Outlook. Anybody have any comments to make on this kind of use? Thanx!

  • seen it the other day for 70 pound . not my type of phone im looking for really buts its a cheap pc based mobile

  • This has been discontinued already by orange and is being sold off for �79.99 but this could fall further. Its not a popular phone. Poor Display with an out of date version of windows mobile (5) the current version is 6. I believe the phone is an SPV C500 re cased and with its bluetooth fixed. One to give a miss unless your on a budget. If it drops to less than �50 then it will be a good buy.

  • How much internal memory does it have?

  • It doesnt cum with a mini sd and its placed underneth the battery like the spv550

  • During java games the screen turns black.Dooes anyone no why?Otherwise the phones nice.

  • Hi! Does anybody know whether the phone comes with an external mini SD slot or is the SD slot underneat the batter or something? Thanks in advance!

  • Hi! Does anybody know whether the phone comes with an external mini SD slot or is the SD slot underneat the batter or something? Thanks in advance!

  • A nice package, good value for money. not the best features on the market, but then also it is not that expensive compared to other phones. it is also rather small for a smartphone, and also very fast compared to other smartphones I have seen.

  • mp3 sound is pretty good, but not with preinstalled Windows Media player. mp3 player with equalizer is needy. I recommend to use Pocket music. HTC S310 is good phone for listening music. Battery life is also pretty good. I had turn on display whole day, ocassionally worked with phone and after 16 hours battery still had 20% of power. Consequently reading of books whole day by S310 is possible.

  • could anybody help me i want to know how is the mp3 sound on this phone an does have windows mediaplayer

  • Can anyone help me with the GPRS data settings for this phone on Vodafone UK? Thanks

  • Hi all I'm interested in getting the HTC S310 does anyone knows whether you can change the backround colour on the phone, cause i don't like the green backround colour.

  • i like the phone.how is the mp3 sound of the phone?

  • i have some questions for everbody who uses this smartphone. i am eager to buy it in march and it will be my first smartphone on Windows Mobile and that's why i have some questions! 1) is this phone a good choice for listening music? 2) what's the quality of the headphones? 3) are there enough software for WM 5.0 in the internet?

  • does this phone support AJAX? as i see it has pocket IE

  • because the software is a bit different&stuff/sim+ allowes you to save apps etc on the sim card(128 mb capacity) .it also has mem card

  • why in orange shops or others shops who are orange parteners this phone is with name "SPV C100" ?? and orange have "spv c500" "spv c600" "spv m500" etc. but that phones are made bi HTC

  • You can drain all of your battery and still all your data is still there, even if it's on the storage card, phone memory or SIM+. I can guarantee you that :)

  • does the HTC also require you not to drain the battery totally or else all data is lost? My HP 1910 was like that. appreciate reply.

  • The battery life is pretty good if I may say so. I own an Orange SPV C100, which is pretty much like the HTC S310, and the battery life has amazed me so far. It lasted for 3 days with like 30min talking and 1h using the internet on edge :) I hope this info will help you decide upon buying this device because it's a jewl I tell you, especially at this price.

  • hi to all , wanted to ask , how is the battery life of this phone? all smart phones so far have a very bad battery life.Hope this one is different because its cute! thanks.vss

  • Hi again so soon What I was trying to ask was, does the phone support A2DP for advanced audio (stereo)? Thank ya :-)

  • Hi Peeps What is this, " 3D Graphics and Orange SIM+ " that you guys are talking about? and then also does the phone support Bluetooth v2 with the capability of Stereo Wireless? Many Thanks

  • could anybody tel me some information about the mp3 sound??? is everything ok with that???

  • Hey guys and gals, I am interested in buying this phone but I can't find much info on its standby time - or how much battery lasts. Anyone? Thanks

  • It supports mobile 3D Graphics and Orange SIM+

  • Does anyone knows where I can download an english version of the manual?

  • It has a 200Mhz ARM Processor.

  • What is the processor and can anyone mention its speed???????

  • Does anyone know of a better way to search for a contact.

  • > Problem with the bluetooth stereo stream < I bought a new bluetooth stereo headset(jabra bt620s) and tried to connect to my phone. it works very good with the handsfree, but in wireless stereo(music). it always lost contact.

  • Hello all, I would like to know if this mobile HTC S310 Oxygen support m3g (mobile 3D Graphics). Thank you in advance! Susana

  • In the box; the phone and the battery(of course ;)), headphones(seems like a very cheap one, but the sound is pretty good) charger, data-cabel, cd-rom(software), and 2 manualer(one for quickstart).

  • Can you please tell us what's in the box ? I read something about no headphones or smth. like that. Thanks :)

  • I live in sweden, but I'm an asia(1/4 viet and 3/4 chinese)lol. I bought the phone here in sweden and it cost me about 270 euros with tax(about 300 dollars). I have checked little bit about how long battery lasts. almost 4 days, then I had made some phonecalls everyday and listen some music. I gonna make a real test very soon, and I let you guys know.

  • No, I have a T-Mobile SDA (US Version). But it's made by the same company (HTC) so I figured it would be the same.

  • That'a a standard function on all WM smartphones :) BTW Tan can you please tell us what country are you from, where did you bought your phone and how much did it cost with all the taxes ? Thanks in advance :)

  • Aaron, thanks alot, lol. I didn't know it was so easy, I tried. thanks. do you also have a htc s310?

  • Tan, to lock the keypad on HTC Smartphones press and hold the red End key.

  • I got this phone a few days ago. it's pretty cool, but too advanced for me. It have so many features that I don't need, but a very good smartphone for such a price. I don't know how to lock the keypad, anyone?

  • The HTC phones with Windows mobile are exxelent! I love it! there is only one weakness, the camara is behind the new standards with their camara. Should be at least 2 mega pixel and not 1.3 that is "old stuff"

  • ...nice phone...i think the price will be similar to the nokia 3230...in this case RELEASE THE BEAST! :)) :P

  • if this is going to be a "budget" smartphone, with price within the range of the XphoneII, then i'd say, "Nice Phone!" Hardwarewise, it's better than Xphone2 - WM5, larger ram, 1.3 megapixel camera and EDGE. =)

  • Fugly as hell. The Xphone II series looked way better.

  • this phone sucks....SPV c600 is way better than this one. i dont't know why they're releasing a phone with old features

  • cool phone
