  • im using this and now facing probleam actually its charger not working required new charger and also its charging IC gone which is not getting here anywhere so required that also can yo help me pls for thos material to recived me -pls.

  • there is no possibility to unlock the device. you can make a hard reset and restore the factory settings.

  • you can try a "hard reset" (it delete the memory and load the original settings of the OS)

  • I want to know how unlock this if pass word's forgotten.

  • shutting down anytime maybe means that battery is dead. you can find them cheaply on ebay. other issues are maybe cause the system got stupid, that happens with windows after a number of years. flash it if you know how, or give it to someone else if you don't. cheers

  • sorry but it seems that you cannot fix the mic since it is built in, either you have problem with mainboard or speaker.. try to go in test mode. by pressing the power and reset button about .03 second then hold the camera button for 5 seconds... you will see the test mode to check all the functions of your device... send me an email to [email protected] if you need any help.

  • send me an email to [email protected] for your inquiry of lcd screen, your location. i can give it to you for $100 if you are going to pay the courier.

  • please update your os to wm6, it is downloadable from the glofiish site, then let me know if you are facing the same problem. actually so many revisions of OS because of windows bugs. and the final released was wm6.

  • i can not open the attached picture when i receive mail. also i can not send picture attached in my mail. all are in format pdf or jpg. waiting your replay nesim afya

  • whoever has a problem with the phone, let me know. the device itself since i do the service was a perfect pda phone. people doesn't understand the true meaning of pocket pc. you should minimize the applications because of low capacity of the ram. As a logical knowledge, anything who has a problem with the hardware should be replaced.

  • am having problem with gloiish m700 whenever i wanted to brownse or play video the storage memory appear an said , storage memory is critically low.if you do not increase storage memory,you may not able to start some programs. use file explorer to delete files you no longer need,or move some files to storage card, can anyone help me out?

  • Yep yep. I got my M700 01/2007. Still in (private)use and work like a clock. GPS is great (Route 66), well, start up is quite slow. Battery problems? Visit: batteryupdate.com.

  • My brother got the glofish m700 about 2 years ago, and he loved it. Now I'm using it and I love it! I haven't gotten any of the problems that I just read about on this site yet. Contrary to what everyone has said about the battery life, I charged it to 20% and it lasted about 8 hours. Maybe it's because I froze the device... not program freeze but actual freeze... in a freezer, and it seems to be working AMAZINGLY.

  • What a waste of money to many problems, GPS freeze that require reset, camera lines , slow , and finally it stopped working sent it back to China and it has been gone for the last 3 months!

  • I have a problem with my m 700 glofiish. I just use it for a week but when I input the password, it says incorrect and I did resetting and cold boot but still my password is wrong. What procedure do I need to know just to open the screen...Please somebody help me...thanks..

  • i drop my m700 but it didnt break. its strong but its slow

  • i have only one problem with M700 and i hope,that you will help me. if i want to turn on phone, this PDA have problem,because it only search some signal but never find it...not never,but many times.if it find some GSM, then has this signal only few minutes and after 5 minutes turn off again to flight mode...help me please. [email protected]

  • my extanle memory dos not working

  • I had the same problem , when you remove the battery cover you will see on the left hand side where you unlock the battery a hole , fill it with a bit tissue and jamm it down. You will see on the inside of the cover a small plastic pin which should keep it down when closed , either the pin is to short or the cover is to loose. hope this helps

  • i have a glofiish which was given to my mum but its all in russian! how can i change it to english!? HELP!

  • hello, i think i may be able to help with your problem, but i am not sure. i am also an owner of the glofiish m700, and i have the same problem, and i think i know why. the battery cover of the phone is fragile and useless. it barely goes into its slots, so the battery cover is always partially off. as a result to this, the phone turns off because the battery cover is off. all phones turn off when the battery cover is off!!! i am not sure if this is the reason your phone always turns off (because thats why mine always turns off), but if it is, i recommend that you buy a sturdier and stronger battery cover.

  • hello i am an owner of a glofiish m700. this phone absolutely sucks this phone sucks big time! the battery cover is very cheap!!!!! mine broke, so my battery cover keeps on coming off, which results in my phone turning off. so, in the end, my phone turns off about every five minutes, and it takes about three minutes just to turn on. this is a pain in the neck. and not only, but the phone is huge!!!! the pictures of it make it look very small, but it is the biggest phone i have ever seen, i am not joking!!!! and it is very laggy and slow. and if you drop it once, i assure you it WILL break. there may be a lot of features like word and excel, but the phone in general is a piece of s**t! trust me, DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!!! YOU WILL BE VERY DISSAPOINTED!!! i payed $300 for it!!! biggest waste of money i have made, EVER!

  • i want to install java in my glofiish m700 whwere shod i go to donload?

  • where can i find other additional software?? any idea?

  • u will have to do a hard reset......press the power button together with the rest button (with ur stylus) it will restart.....then leave both the buttons and press and hold the call end button (red one) till it asks u if u wanna do the hard reset,,,,,,thats it!

  • How to install GPS - Maps on M700

  • try to tap/click the power button, its just a power-saving feature of windows mobile devices. it turns off but it will still receive messages and calls. you can disable it by navigating through power settings and tap on battery power then uncheck turn off when not in use, also you may want to uncheck this option in the on external power tab so it won't power off when connected to ur pc and not in use. another way is to tap the battery indicator in the home screen and do the same thing. hope it helps! enjoy ur mobile! God bless!

Thanks and waiting for the reply...

  • can anyone give username and password for eten users.eu forum i tried to register but fail there is no register button to submit the registration form

  • Guys, I bought my M700 6 months ago, My phone simply does not starts up. I recharged the battery a lot of times, I did a hard reset, it worked for two minutes (it started installed somehting and showed the main screen... and they it died...any idea if this is a problem with the phone or with the battery?????

  • This phone sucks balls!! the battery life is like 2 seconds. I can barely hear anything when i talk to someone. I have to turn on speaker phone and yet still its like talking on a normal phone. Dont get me started on the ring tones. Dont waste your money stick to a HTC TYTN 2 or BlackBerry Pearl you will be soo much happier

  • This phone's built quality is really poor. the vibration is so strong that it scares me every single time. It does have a lot of features but i would not recommend this phone to anyone using it for more than just playing about. The battery life is really poor - having only the phone in standby i have to plug the phone in overnight, otherwise it dies during the night. so 200 h standby is just false advertising by ETEN. Even the extended battery gives you barely two days of standby. The phone jack WILL break in year's time just like 90% of people's who use the headphones/handsfree, then you won't be able to use the phone without the handsfree. Warranty service pretty much does not exist in the UK - service centre in Germany... Just check the forums on ETEN M700 and you will see.

  • how can i found my gps maps in glofish m700 please help me i really need it now

  • have question is there photo editing. reply soon about to buy new phone

  • i've used the phone for a few weeks and no troubles yet. update to wm6. bright screen and lots of features

  • Bought my M700 3 months after it came out and let me tell you. nothing but problems. after being on for 3 day it starts to lag and hang. Try to do a soft reset and it just freezes. Had to remove battery to restart the phone. then it worked ok for another 3 days then same problems happen again. That was the first problem. Second was the camera took ugly pictures at the full 2mp it had lines in the picture when viewing it on your computer. other small problems was ear piece volume was not loud enough. battery was ok for me I use car charger if I needed it. can't seem to remember anything else at this moment. Gps was ok with tomtom. wifi was ok, data side was ok too. Phone is on the light side to me my HTC TnTy II is heavier which I don't mind. I am sure there is ways to make it better and run smoother But I just got to frustrated and gave up after sending it back in for repair it came back the same. I did the WM6 upgrade but still same lagging and hanging problems. I been using the forum for help and its a good forum. If anyone is interested in buying the m700 you might want to read through the M700 section of the forum first.. Hope this info will be helpful

  • Hi, I used this one sience 3 months.It is a good generally, but it has 5 big problems. 1) it has an echo in the talking sound. 2) its size is very big. 3) its battery does not take long time. 4) its screen is not bright.(you can n't see it in the sun) 5) its external sound is not a loud. and some small problems.

  • guyz now its been 6 months since i used eten m700......it used to hang alot but now i figured out that it was my mistake......i installed some corrput applications......this cell rox without any doubt!!!! love it!!!!

  • Don�t buy this phone. Freezes a lot, the battery ends really fast (2 days at best, without using any application). The tech support is unreachable. Tried to contact them for about 2 weeks about a problem in the WM6 upgrade with no luck so far.

  • Bought unlocked M700 coz one of my friend has it...paid over $600 with accessories....phone got locked after a month and i literally had to beg and call 10 million places to get my phone fix...finally i am sending it in for repair...and yes i will be charged shipping/customs charges (even after paying over $500) for the phone...good luck...phone is like a beautiful girl...looks nice but once you have it in your life then *&^(*&^&^%

  • My M700 works perfect, you known why because I update to last version of ROM and WM6. - There are the pack which make the phone speaker louder - Improve the quality of the camera - Reduce the crash - Improve the performance of phone Find it your self in Or in download area name: eten password: etendown Good luck guys !

  • don't buy this phone if you live in the middle east and want integrated arabic. the phone randomly switches b/w arabic and enlglish whilst you type messages. there's like a million other bugs that i can't rememebrs because i got rid of this piece of junk months ago. do yourself a favor and sell this POS, you owe it to yourselves to buy a decent pocket pc.

  • the m700 is full of bugs, crashes, settings change all the time, nice in theory, horrible in reality

  • :) @ Foxtrot, m8 trust me I�m using pda�s for looong time and this is my Vorst gadget if I have to compare this is 5 out of 10, start with camera , the battery, the sound when making phone calls its slowww crashesh all the times �.. jast ask and reed the anthers forums� plus at my work we had more than 20 and we swap them for hp�s�.

  • @cpam: Are you a misguided or are you new to PDAs? M700 is one of the best PDAs out there. You probably didn't know how to use it.

  • Please help me how to fix Eten glofiish M700 the touchscreen doesn't work Thankssssssssssssssss

  • This phone has been brill apart from when it froze. Anyway i am wanting some advice on the windows live messenger on it as i cannot get on it, it says 'Theres a connectivity problem. Make sure your in an area with good phone reception and try again.' But the problem is that i have full reception with the full 4 bars along the top bar. What should i do? Any advice?

  • I�m happy to get rid of this. Guys PLS don�t this is proper waste money and time. I had this for 6 month camera is SH... Making phone calls difficult, bad reception ... the device is extremely slow, when battery is on 45% device just dead . no support from E-TEN .... PLS pay little more an get soothing else.....

  • Wait a new E-ten Glofiish named M800 arrives with a 640*480 screen and a 500 Mhz Processor!!!

  • I have same problem you guys, the touch screen doesn't work. Better thing don't buy any from Eten , they are not support and answer email for you

  • I bought my M700 five months ago, till one month ago everything was doing well. I could use GPS sotware with google maps, make calls, receive calls, radio, mp3, divx, etc. What bored me is when you synchronize with PC it just join the Outlook email with your phone contacts and MSN contacts. Then when you need to make a call it is crazy. Don't synchronize your contacts. Another problem is the Wifi isn't useful as when you connect to a home wifi, the softwares on the phone connect to GPRS network besides everything is configured following the manual. Recently, I had problems that I didn't find any explication yet. Sometimes I can't make a call or look my emails by GPRS. When I tried to make a call and the phone/SIM Card connects with the phone network, my M700 just freeze and show me a black screen and turn the keyboard lights on. I need to turn off my M700, removing the battery, and remove the SIM Card, put the battery again, turn it on. It will claim the SIM card. Turn off everything, GSM, Wifi and Bluetooth. Turn it off again, put the SIM card on the slot, and turn on. If I have luck it will work, therefore I need to do this many times till it works. If you are thinking that could be the SIM card or network mobile problem, be careful, as I tried many different SIM cards and from different companies.. I had this problem in Brazil and I'm having it on New Zealand. If anyone here know the problem, please let me know. Best Regards, Adilson Dias

  • exact same thing happened to me, touchscreen doesn't work, no support. this phone sucks!!!

  • I Love this phone. I am with my wifi in internet, i play fifa. and i am changing tha chanels of my dreambox. NEVER CRASH until now. I play with this machine all day and the battery is respondingto my needs. thanks god for that machine

  • Well what a surprise, I am still having difficulties with a phone that has no product support! I am in UK on the O2 network. If I connect to my home WiFi and then start surfing the net the phone immediately starts the gprs connection - thus costing me money. Does anybody have the correct settings or any idea how to stop this. thanks guys.

  • I am very disapointed with this phone. It does not automatically switch between frequency bands - UK - USA. OFTEN it refuses to read the sim card - making it impossible to connect to the network. Calls are not connected when others are having no difficulity. I purchased what I thought was a good phone and have ended up with rubbish. I am going to get an iPhone instead I think.

  • The WM6 upgrade is off etencorp.com and GPS software you pick yourself... Route 66 Navigate 7, CoPilot Live 6, and TomTom Navigator 7 all work great in North America. I love this thing, it's the only one I found that has everything I wanted in a pocket pc: WM6 (after you upgrade it), bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GSM/EDGE, GPS, touch-screen, and a QWERTY keyboard... well, besides the HTC TyTN II, but that one's a little outside my budget.

  • Helpppppppppp!!!!!!!!! From which web Address can I upgrade my M700 (both the software and its GPS Software). Thanks.

  • Guys,the use of the radio only with an earpiece is due to the fact that you would have no signal otherwise.All radios need an aerial(yes really!) and the cable works as the antenna,without this you would probably need a ~1m antenna to pick up a station while listening on speaker.I have Eten M700,with route66 GPS installed,only issue I have is battery read which has a patch.Otherwise very impressed with software and hardware provided on phone

  • Dang it! Their official sites are a nightmare! It seems like it's still under construction, except for their original Taiwan based site. Thank god that I can read and write in Chinese or else I can't even get to download M700's manual online. There's a patch or two in the site which fixes battery reading errors and POP3 password bugs, but the thing is, you must install .cab files manually.

  • LOLZ There's no radio available through the bloody loudspeaker! What a joke! They can make a phone like this but they can't think of a simple feature like that?! I'm better off with Moto's E680i, which I can tune in through the loudspeaker, whilst the handsfree is jacked in. Taiwan made products sucks.

  • hi guyz.....i bought this pocket pc around 15 days ago.....n it kind of inevitably hangs everyday atleast one time.....i bought it from saudi arabia.....and there it comes bundled with around 50mb of arabic softwares installed in the phone memory.......so does any one have any idea what i can do.....im using a 2 gb mem card too if that of any help.....will upgrading to windows 6 help me?????please help.....im really frustrated

  • Cpam, I believe that most phone radios require the use of a earpiece/headset, in which the cable connecting the earphones act as the antenna, providing the reception. Unless there's an override attached to this phone to allow it to play both through the headphones and the main speaker, I think you're out of luck.

  • Proper proper proper rubbish , build chip , crap software combine with hardware as e result E TEN M700 :D. support :d just forget it no responds form them ( e ten ) :D

  • I am a little amazed to find that I cannot listen to the radio through the main speaker of my M700. Does anybody have an idea if this possible? I am very dissapointed by the lack of support for what appears to be a very good pda despite WM6.

  • When using the GPS, does the M700 have to connect to the internet (and thereby incur data charges) or can I use it even if I don't have any data plan with my current provider?

  • Hi Guys i just baught myself an eten m700 its working perfectly fine for me but reading all the negative comments i am getting really upset that i purchased. This phone is pretty costy and what i dont understand how is it that the voting results on this phone are so high but yet so many negative complains. Furthermore if any one knows any way i can update or add any features to thos phone making it better for use let me know please.

  • I have a M700 and have to agree with many points of the postings: - No Support replies from ETEN. - Very confusing WebSite (not clearly stated what downloadable files apply for what WM version or similar). The local agent has an even more confusing structure of the website and guides for some udpates to sub-supplier companies of Software. So it is up to the ETEN user to study these 3rd party software websites to find any possible updates - this is NOT done by ETEN or the Agent and posted on the ETEN site. I looked at least at one such site, but could not find any reference to my M700 there - so how could I find the right updates? - The Birthday Reminder Software from ETEN distorts all Outlook pictures to a square format - I use WM6 and 10 days ago it locked me out. Just as I changed battery it did not recognice my lock password any more. so for the rest of my business trip I had no phone at all. Back home I was told that I have to cold-boot the device - i.e. everything gone. Since then the GPS does not work any more ... have to see how to fix it, but support of ETEN leaves much to be desired - Keyboard has NO illumination for special characters, makes it difficult to use at night - But some time ago I made the mistake to try the encryption - turned it on. Since then about 70% of the files and software that I have on the memory card can not be read. It seem WM6 is refusing to recognize these files with the addional extension at all. Have also still to see how to solve this issue. So be careful when you turn the Encryption on (it sounds good, but after the first booting the files on the Memory card turn useless. Good sides I find is the speaker - it is of good volume.

  • Could anyone please tell me how can i find out witch OS version i have? thanks a lot! This phone rocks!!! :p

  • DON"T BUY IT This device has a lot of serious bugs. -icons disapeare into thin air. -list of installed programs also. -verry bat BT-interface witch makes the use of carkits impossibel. -Device related activesync problems. -Radio simply quits on you. Stops dialling. Reset is requiered. Al kind of vage failures in sending and receiving E-mail. Attachments can't be sent. This list of bugs is almost endless. -No support what so ever. The producer doesn't responce to questions. So DON"T BUY it. Be warned. It looks great BUT IT ISN"T

  • could anyone please tell me the real dimensions of this beauty? thanks a lot

  • Hi I just got my M700 and I upgraded it to WM6 and its great! I only thing I don't like is the volume is too low but I saw some post on how to fix that just have not tried it yet

  • I have had the phone for 3 months, was reasonably happy with it, although I was unable to update it to WM6. However, the touch screen stopped working, which makes the phone and pda essentially worthless. I am traveling and have sent several emails to ETEN asking for help and have received NO help. I cannot recommend any ETEN product and in particular the M700, because I cannot believe I am the only one with this problem with the M700 and with the lack of support.

  • Hi, need some help here, I have a M700 upgraded to WM6, due the fact the cell sometimes lockup and is necessary to remove the batery to get it working again. With WM5, the problem was worst, so we upgrade to WM6, however, problem persist. any ideas?

  • Hello, I just received my M700 in the mail. It's a great phone to say the least. I have a couple of questions: 1) Can anyone tell me how to search for WiFi connections and 2) Does anyone know of a good website to download software for the M700. Thanks!

  • hy, please help me with a software for instant messaging for yahoo. X700 came with agile messenger preinstalled, but u need to buy the licence, M700 did not had any software preinstaled for messaging. What can u use for mobile instant messaging? free - if it is posible

  • I am interested in this phone to replace my Garmin iQue M5. Does the M700 come with any mapping/routing software? Can I use my Garmin software on the M700? How do you load the software onto the Glofish? Thank you

  • no GPS wil not disconnect .. you can process your call .. GPS work in background without trouble

  • look exactly the same 90% as my htc tytn and my toshiba g900 why did eten want to do this design and why do they want to make it soo confusing when it comes to appearences?

  • i bought this phone in 5/2007 and its a dream. no other phone brings to the table what the glofiish does. my friends still cant believe what it does. sound quality is amazing. gps rocks (especially with Copilot Live 6). wifi is super fast. connectivity w/windows vista is smooth and fast. 3rd party products are endless...view mpeg, avi, wmv, ect. 2 gig microsd card has plenty of room. cant say enough good thing. i wish it was same price as iPhone though...but iphone doesnt touch this pocket pc. great product for a company that is unknown in the US.

  • can anyone pls help me. coz i have a bad experience with the phone while i making call. very noise echo i read throw all the opinion here. There are ppl say to upgrade the ROM. but how? can anyone teach? pls.. but overall M700 is a very nice and a good phone.

  • does this phone have a2dp- stereo bluetooth?

  • I hope someone can answer this doubt of mine before I made my mind to purchase this gadget. Anyone knows when the GPS is on, what will happen if a phone calls comes in? Will the GPS connection fails? Or the phone call got cut off? Please advise.

  • This is for NEW GUY your provider doesnt need to know that you have GPS on your phone they have nothing to d with it because you have the chip that contactsd the satellite. But you do have to purchase a navigation system and maps. I Have Navigon 5 and works great.

  • Hello Every, I'm from the US and am serviced with Tmobile. So I hear the GPS is great, but my friend told me that your phone service provider has to be able to support gps technology. Is this true?? or can I get GPS regardless?

  • I have one M700 GLOFIISH & it`s great. I have WM6 on it , it`s work great, it`s verry good. I use it for Game Developement ... I develop a game for PEPSI ROMANIA ... a flash game ... The phone is veri good !!!

  • I don't find the modem driver anywhere. Have any ideea?

  • Hi, I am looking to get a phone and the M700 seems fit my budjet. Having read some of the comments on here it does sounds like a problem product regarding an issue with sound and PAYG sims. I also read that a later ROM release (and WM6) would resolve it. Has anyone who had an upgrade found any improvements (sound/PAYG) or is it still duff? Cheers

  • Great phone!nothing to complain! Anybody now If or How I can get some KeyPad Skin for this phone?

  • everything is OK but one for me minus is the etnen doesen t have IRDA

  • echo problem very annoying.also the phone suts down by itself.dont know what to do

  • it write:"os image is not compatible with this hardware"

  • I bought the M700 yestrday and today i want to upgrade on wm6 and during a process it say that is not compatibile with my eten. Is there anyboody whit the this problem,maybe i make mistake during instalation,please help major version:wwe minor version:0355

  • No way to fix it ... But if you use itech bluetooth with radio earpiece, the sound is very very loud. since the phone's FM radio only works with the wired earpiece, so i suggest itech with built in FM radio, but you can use one without the radio if you don't listen to FM radio.

  • Does anyone know how to fix the ear piece volume? Even at max volume I can hardly hear the other person.

  • Got Problems with Vista ? .NET Framework 3.0 Windows Vista, .NET Framework 3.0 Runtime and Windows SDK Downloads Get all the latest downloads for Windows Vista, the .NET Framework 3.0, and the Windows SDK. I'm not sure cos I don't have Vista ... But maybe it is because of the Net Framework Version.

  • I purchased a Glofiish M700 from PC City in Spain two weeks ago and have now had to return it for a full refund. The main problem being that there is no possibility to change the language of the Operating System. I contacted Eten via email and received no reply. I also pointed out to them that I was using Windows Vista and that the software upgrade wasn't working they responded 2 weeks later telling me that I had to change Active Sync settings, even though I had stated that I was using Vista and therefore Windows Mobile Device Centre as opposed to Activesync. Re the wireless LAN I also couldn't not get this to function...., it found the WLAN, connected then lost the WEP code and wouldn't connect again.

  • Hi, Does anyone know how to set up the wifi connection? I was able to connect to the wireless router but it doesn't seem like it's using the wifi to download when using the Internet. Please advice. Stewart

  • I've upgraded to WM6. Everything works fine. Coool :)

  • can i get the driver for win vista i mean my pc can not install the driver

  • i just recieved the phone today ordered it yesterday from omnicelusa.com for overnight shipping got it the next day thanks for the great service, loving the wifi and the speed of the internet.

  • BTW ... I am an actual user. and on the 23rd of May 2007, I will upgrade my M700 to WM6. It's already worth every penny now but after upgrading? I would'nt have paid premium for other brands that just sell better cos they're more famous ... and you can't really compare till youve used a wider range of brands. I've used Sybian phones before and theyre only good as a phone but really slow and poor in functionality, HP ipaQ GPS enabled 6515 and 6965 is worse if you like to knock your technology about the primitive ways. HP6828 the screen will make your eyes very tired cos it's too small and when you want to input data, you will suffer. It's more a ladies type PDA Phone. The best o2 is the XDA IIs but it's now outdated and all the newer models battery don't last long. BenQ P50 and P51 is very solid and you can knock it about but battery life is very poor. and my friends all commented that it is ugly so I gave them up. This is the first time i'm using Eten, It's performance is most satisfying, I don't use any case and just put it in my back pants pocket which means I squash it wif my ass all day long and it don't break ... and I weigh 80KG ! The GPS better than both HP and BenQ although BenQ is also using Sirfstar. The battery ? I've yet to experience any dissapointment by PDA standards of all those I have used before. I strongly Recommend this and ..... NO ! I DO NOT WORK FOR ETEN ! I am a Manager of an Optical shop selling Spectacles.

  • I have no Vista ... But i do a Google and got this: I hope that helps you. Just my thots ... Ya shud take more good care of ya PDa ... Knocking any kinda technology about the primitive ways will getya a paperweight in the end ... so take care.

  • i have big problems syncronizainig with windows vista,no conactivity through usb, or bluetooth. anybody help me

  • I bought the M700 hoping it could deliver on all its promises. Sure. For all of a day or two. Trouble with this phone is that the slightest knock renders the thing incapacitated with its plastic side buttons jamming down and freezing the software. Having then been forced to prise them up again higher than they should go to prevent more jamming, an additional knock (from car seat to car floor) finally did for the thing and my callers could no longer hear me and my bluetooth would only make, not receive calls properly. The software was full of spelling errors and typo's, which should have been a sign of how clumsily it had been cobbled together. Now I am left with an expensive paperweight only a couple of months after getting it. Avoid at all costs unless you live in a cotton ball lined world. Replaced with HTC P4350 - Much more robust and a better, simpler interface.

  • people if you haveNT already with the first Unofficial release then Upgrade to windows mobile 6 on the 23rd May VIA ETEN CORP WEBSITE! im using my M700 and it is a whole new phone all bugs Fixed and it just seems better and faster! so go for it -

  • yes it has a 2.0 megapixel camera

  • hey im looking forward to buy this phone. I just want to know if this phone have a flash for the camera. thank ytou

  • I am using this phone. For Viewing Pdf use 3rd party Application like PocketXpdf v0.5.0 - it is freeware. For Echo during Call, Upgrade the ROM to the latest Version.

  • very loud echo when speaking during a call

  • I was wondering if you can view pdf files on the M700

  • I just got the phone. I put my tmobile sim card in but can't pick up the signal. Called tmobile tech support but can't seem to be of help. Does anyone know if this phone works with tmobile service in the US? Or do I have to upgrade to the latest firmware for it to work...Thanks. Stewart

  • I am interested in m700 but I wonder if there is any support center in Indonesia? Does anyone ever use e-sword on it? Your feedback please

  • I am quite satisfied with my M700. Never had any software crashes or hangups. You should check what softwares you install, and what softares create problems. I had problems with Pocket Mechanic and SPB Pocket Plus. I install SKTools and SPB Mobile shell, and things are working just fine.

  • I just sent my M600+ back is the M700 better?

  • Can someone please post a link to the new 354 Rom for the Eten m700. i registered at the eten users website but cannot access the download section, If you can help Id appreciate it

  • Can anyone tell me if this works with captive portal wifi connections? My school wifi uses a log in based on opening your internet browser, will this work with such networks? thanks in advance

  • RE: download sites for PPC apps. Go to w w w.ipmart-forum.c o m (remove spaces). You might need to register to see downloads. Scroll to the PPC section under Fun, Games etc. You'll be spoilt for choice.

  • To Mr. Paul: Could you please let me know what website we can download software application? I would like to install software to my unit like "Full Screen Photo Call", "Video Player for .divx extension" and "Media Safe" to keep all your confidential bits & pieces. Thanks for your help.

  • i am looking to buy M700 but not sure if it's good enough for GSM att wireless. I currently own M500 which is gone bad already. Not picking up any signal recently. any suggestion?? Will it pick up the right signal?? it's very important. I put my simcard into Nokia N73 which picks up the full bar but M500 has nothing

  • No, this phone is not compatible with Verizon Wireless. Verizon uses CDMA technology, and this phone uses GSM technology (SIM cards). Sorry buddy.

  • This mobile uses Samsung S3C2440, which in turn uses an ARM920T 32 bits RISC processor: So this mobile phone uses a 32bits CPU.

  • is this phone compatable with verizon wireless?

  • the HTC doesn't have a keyboard... this is a really bad point... than the processor of 400 mhz is more important than 16 or 32 bits...

  • u might be right but p3300 is smaler ,nicer and it works great. dont forget that HTC is no 1 in Windows mob phone...about eten i dont know what to say...asembled on a boat in free wather of dubai... maybe?

  • kln, anyone can google and find m700's Samsung S3C2440 400 MHz CPU is 32bit too and yes, you forgot the m700 has a slideout qwerty keyboard and has a real audio jack separate from the usb. Of course, along with liking the "cheap" TI OMAP850 200 MHz CPU you probably like a proprietary extusb for audio when not charging or syncing, like the weaker battery and like playing with your loose screwball on the 3300 and spitting on it when gets dirty, which are cute things you will miss on the more professional m700.

  • ..HTC P3300 is beter because have the same function but is smaller and light with abouth 40g and most important have a 200Mh procesor witch work at 32bit rather than 400 at 16bit. and the last thing the p3300 is only 400 euro in ROMANIA

  • and its very easy to do, back it up first though

  • The newist ROM is 354

  • I have M700 and it's a very nice phone. Regarding the ROM I have 300. what is the latest ROM? What benefits the new ROM update has?. Is it a safe opeartion to upgarde? please reply

  • I have used it before. It is alright. Nothing special about it. Amazes me how it can such good reviews though. Nice but boring.

  • This "phone" (how zou call it) has the best battery life, most slim design with qwerty keyboard and gps and wifi... so zes its ugly, but good!

  • The points for this device is justified because i feel the actual users have a better idea and feel of the phone than people who just read the reviews. people who are upset with freezes should realise that that is common with windows devices? The design is very good and though i was sceptical about the GPS let me tell you its awesome. Tried TOM TOM and iguidance and i feel iguidance is faster and it rocks. I also like the Mdesk and quicklink features provided by eten. After holding the HTC Tytn and the Eten M700, you suddenly realise that M700 is weightless in comparison. Awesome. Also the guys at eten forum are very helpful. They go out of way to solve each others problems.I would definitely recommend this phone unless you want to wait for its 3G version

  • i dont know why such regular uncommon fone has rated such excellent i think its not gooooooooooooooood it look bad ..... arghhhhhhhhhhhh

  • though the i300 lacks the m700's sliding qwerty keyboard and quadband world roaming, it looks like a nice phone if it were available in the u.s. at least the m700 has touchscreen and looks to be less expensive than those e90 and n95 symbian phones, which btw you can also run the tomtom 6 gps navigation software on the m700 just fine

  • About the problems of Dr. F. Shalabi, many users of M700 had different opinions, and still think it's a good machine and great buy, including me.

  • I am not surprise at Gigabyte i300 rating at all. I had to get mine directly from Taiwan. The size is perfect and very stable. The problem is they are hard to find and TomTom doesn't work without GPS Gate. I heard they will be releasing a ROM update soon. Hope that will fix the problem.

  • for my very bad luck I bought thid stupid expensive machine, I feel that somebody fooled me and took my money. the more I'm using this stupid machine the more I'm discovering its problems, it is no more than 10 days that I bought it and I'm completely fed up of its problems I reported some of the problems I have to the company but no support at all this is the letter I've sent to the support Dear Sir, I'm Dr. F. Shalabi. I�m used of using Pocket PC as phone devices. I new about your product (ETEN M700) from the Saudi market and the web site of Eten. Frankly the advertisements attracted me a lot, especially when I saw that it included both GPS and FM tuner in addition to all the other features that other brand names have, except for the 3G support. Its price is about 800US$ which is somewhat high, so I took the risk of buying this marvelous device. When I got the device it was my greatest shook; I had tens of problems, I tried to report them in a scientific way to the agent. The only thing they did is to install the new software. Non of the problems was solved, surprisingly they told me we an�t help you anymore, because; when it accepts a signal this means there is no hardware problem. The problem is with the software. So no changing of the device and no solution for the problems. Sir, for me as a customer it doesn't matter whether the problem is software or hardware or even the problem is with compatibility with the provider�s networks, since you give a product to the market with a high price between a lot of good reputation competitors, it should be competing the others, or at least it should give me a service equaling to its price. I'm very sad for losing my money for a very primitive mobile (as I'm using it now), I'll report you with some of the problems, and I wish that I'll find a solution from you since the local agent didn't help me. While using the device M700 I faced many problems, unfortunately a lot of them are non-reproducible (I faced them one time, I can�t give the reason for that and can�t get them another time to report them, but they happen every now and then without a reason) but these are some reproducible and others I met a lot of times: 1. Keyboard problems: after using the shift whenever you press the space it�ll change the language (10 characters or even more) 2. Sometimes multiple pressing of shift and function key (the red dot) will change the language. 3. The text message is only 70 character length in English or Arabic, which should be 160 in English and 70 in Arabic 4. The soft key �Calendar� opens the frequently dialed numbers, sometimes after hard reset it will change into �Frequently Dialed Numbers� (not stable) 5. In the calendar; when you press the time it�ll edit the date and when you press the date it�ll edit the time. 6. GPS altitude is not right: if you turn on the device you�ll get the altitude, turn it off then on it�ll give totally different reading (50 meters or more difference), this is while using the given software and others. 7. The flash of the camera sometimes works after you take the image (not stable sometimes normal sometimes after) 8. The flash of the camera doesn�t work with the video mode 9. The radio works only with the headphones 10. When the battery goes empty, the machine turns off with the light of the 4-way navigation, send and end keys are on. 11. Also the battery can�t be recharged after complete discharging until I remove the battery and return it, then remove and put the plug 4-5 times 12. Sometimes when you remove the battery and return it, you can�t operate until 5 minutes pass, a flashing red light appear in the charging/signal LED 13. The voice commander is tried several times with different voices, it is not responding in the right way. 14. According to the manual, there should be a tab under the voice commander settings named Digit Training for digital dialing; this tab is not available in the mobile. In addition, the advanced settings should include setting for the length and sensitivity of the digital dialing, which is not here. 15. Sometimes the today screen hangs up and stays empty and nothing will resolve it except �restore factory settings� 16. While using the phone there is a very loud echo heard from both the speaker and the receiver of the call 17. when I reset it, the settings of the phone will change especially that for vibration and ring tone Sir, I wish I�ll find a solution from you. If I have no solution I�ll be very sorry to sell this device as a used one in the market� at that time I�ll sell it in a very low price in the market, to give the indication of the problems it has especially that it is still very new in the Saudi market. And I�ll not keep any instance without advice the others that I was deceived by the advertisement for the lot of problems it has.

  • I have been used m700 for one month, good GPS service, and almost no bug, I feel the thousands votes and rating about m700 is correct.

  • Ha ha, if you\'re truly obsessed with just peoples\' ratings then just go with the truly fatty ones like the nokia n95, nokia e90, o2 xda atom life, htc x7500 and the gigabyte g-smart i300. LOL.

  • Have this phone and it's really bad. Turned it on and it froze already. The camera isnt all that good has blur doesnt matter how still you stand. Battery is ok...design is..not suitable for those who seek style and fashion. If you want a typical normal phone this is for you. Functions not that well, but i mean it has good resolution and its touch screen like iphone..but wouldnt reccomend it. Wonder how this got such high ratings but it really isnt all that good..people stop rigging the ratings will you?

  • I bought one amd the touch screen froze on the first day after charging, I could only enter data via the keyboard. I've sent it back to them, but unfortunately for me, they say they never got it. Nightmare!!! Nice to see other people have good things to say about the device.

  • i hav purchased this phone and its the best thing ever! but today i was playing some music and then i heard no sound and all my music and sounds where not playing so i cant even hear it ring..did i blow my speaker can anyone help?

  • Good points of Eten M700 Great Gps aquisition Bluetooth & Wifi easy to use Keyboard. Bright Screen. Loads of Software for it on WM5. Great battery Bad Points Terrible Camera/Camcorder Payg Sim card problems Alarms are quite and have to convert MP3 to Wav to change to different alarm. Easy to scratch Big in the hand (but you can't have everthing) Occassional freezing (WM 5 Fault) If Eten could sort out Sim card problems and the camera it would be great but not being able to use it as a phone can be a bit of a problem !. Hope this helps

  • Hi, Do you recommend to buy this phone? Have you had any problems? Please reply. thanks

  • How does it costs for 1(I'm in Indonesia).. I think no 3G is ok(for me),coz in Indons packet data speed is still 2 low..Video Calls are lagggg n can't browse the internet except with a WiFi..So WiFi 802.b/g is good enough

  • Its good!! But it hasn't 3g and it's big!! The very positive thing is its GPS, radio and slide-out qwerty key. The ideal size is like HTC P4350 (109x59x17mm)

  • can i listen music from all formats when dowload from my computer, like sonyericsson phones?

  • Great phone overall, a few niggles though the camera (2mp LOL) is useless, UK Sim cards PAYG don't work properly there is a work around I've found but unexpected flaw. Keyboard is ok, Bluetooth GPS WIFI is all great, Calendar alarms can't be change to mp3 as I know of, and the alarms are to quite, software issues aside one of the best on the market. Battery is fantastic. Hope it helps

  • this is very good. i am going to buy 1. i love the performances but i wish it has 3g. but this is good enough

  • got one last week. took it to china this week. last nite used skype to call LA fr the wireless in the hotel lobby.....COOL!! some repetitive clicking noise but with gsm switched off etc liveable. battery doesn't charge well with usb chargers other than the one that came with the phone. some bugs but overall no regrets. :)

  • This is the perfect PDA. But it lacks 3G, in fact... There are a lot of places (as here in the UK) where UMTS works fine. So this with 3G would be perfect.

  • I want to buy also an Eten glofiish M700 and I want to know if it has also touch screen like a normal PDA and if the GSM is locked for an dedicated mobile probider (e.g Vodafone or is free for all mobile provider all over the world) and also for which contrys has maps GPS software or is posible to install any GSM software like iGO Thank you very much in advance

  • So it has GSM/GPS/Camera/Keyboard/Windows. Its just enough for me. I'll buy one as soon as i can afford. It does alot more than i can, so i have no bad comments about it.

  • do eten has msn or any other chat tools?

  • People say that the lack of 3g on this ppc-pe is a really big down size. I don�t see it that way. 3g networks have a very unstable link to the 3g phone, and I think that it makes 3g still unecessary right now, maybe in the future it will work better, but now.... So this phone has everything we need right now, and the features it got works pretty nice on the tecnology we have today

  • I have been used m700 for one week,this is the best gps phone on the market.i had the p990i befor,but this one is much more powerful,thanks Entrepot cellulaire in peel sell me the nice phone.

  • So when you say this phone lacks 3g capability...what do you mean? I live in the States so is this a 3g market? Do you mean video calling because no carriers offer that service here. I want this phone but what exactly are the drawbacks for not having 3g capability? If it's wi-fi capable then what does it matter the data speed?

  • This phone oh, multimedia device rules. I had the G500 previously but the M700 takes it to another level. With style and processing speed I would recommend this to Bill Gates. I got mine friday from and haven't put it down yet.

  • Nice review here:

  • I had the i-mate jam and then i bought the Eten M500 .It was the best PDA i ever had. Then i bought the I-mate jasjar (which is the most advance brick in the world) and now i will probably buy the Eten x500 or the m700. I never had any hardware problems whith the m500 , it was a very fast pda and it had a great screen. The only drawback was the plastic cover.

  • Why is it a rip-off? sure there's bugs in it, but HTC and others don't have a phone like this. They have a GPS phone but it as no keyboard. Read the posting rules, no bashing, no trolling.

  • i advice anyone that's going to buy an Eten to think twice because they are all nothing but rip-offs! at first u'll be happy with it but it's later on that the problem will start so if u like your money then take my advice!

  • Rip-off...

  • Have a look at the Eten users forum, it seems like hardware isn't a problem but the firmware is.

  • Hi, I am planning to buy eten. What does user think regarding quality? Do I need to go repair shop recently? or it is good as nokia? Best Regards

  • So it lacks 3G? so what. Find me a phone the same size at the M700 with the same features but with 3G and the same battery life and I will then see it as a weakness.

  • hello, waht's the diference between the browser of tytn(WAP 2.0/xHTML, HTML) and the asus p535(WAP 1.2.1/2.0)and the Eten glofiish M700(html) ????????????????????????' ????????????????????????' ????????????????????????'

  • Probably because to keep cost down (supplier, manufacturer, user purchase and service costs), conserve battery power and await for the wider deployment relative to the common 2G technology and then bammo launch a huge holy war on all the poor saps who primarily use their slim, light phone for phone, messaging and editing text to buy into the marketing of "very cheap" high speed wireless services like videocalling that everyone absolutely needs (and not just the technonerdy and cool geeks).

  • lack of 3g is a great disadvante to this phone.apart from that its excellent in all features.i dont know why eten forget 3g in this handset.

  • 3G is a disappointment for both, users and GSM providers. By the time 3G will be as spread as EDGE, 4,5G will appear. I will buy a M700 as soon as I have a good price. The Samsung@400Mhz is a very good CPU. And WM5 + Sirf III GPS + FM Radio w/ RDS and TMC is a killer combination. Good job ETEN !!! PS: The design is OK. X500 is the ugly brother.

  • it is ugly,3G support?demode ,,

  • They also both have same 400Mhz Samsung CPU!

  • M700's 236.8k EDGE versus Trion's 384k 3G must be HUGE whenever need to make that precious videocall but 3G is not widely available then you might as well wait and go for 4G, 5G and more g's to the provider. If you you believe 3G market is still the best then have a bridge to sell to you. Caveat emptor. ETEN M700 pda is imho currently the only best choice that has both GPS and FM radio services built-in that are widely available everywhere you go for free so would not trade that for paying provider(s) for spotty 3G service. Besides all that can also do just fine with the M700's Wi-Fi too especially the free hotspots. Guessing you will buy what is more important to you regardless so to each their own.

  • You're better of getting an O2 XDA Trion - it has all the same specs as this phone and more resilient hardware. I had the M500+, and its CPU burned in 2 moths of use!! This phone is NOT 3G compatible.

  • where is the 3g ??? dead ??? will o@ and htc release good pda // porcketpc phones ever ?????

  • Hmmm...only thing missing is a business card scanner and a Tv output...wat else can be put.

  • Seems to be an X500 with a qwerty keyboard!!

  • I really like this. Competition will bring down the price and will force competitors to add features like GPS, FM Tuner and others. Welcome m700. Please tell us your price!!!

  • Please bring this one home to us soon. This looks to be one variation of the Eten X500 that is slightly thicker with the added slide out QWERTY keypad. This M700 will surely be one to beat and be a base for comparisons.

  • Sorry. i meant compared to X500 there doesnt seem to be much of a difference

  • Couldn't spot any difference in the specifications when compared with M700.

  • Looks aside, this has bit of kit has ticked many boxes. Just need a price, a solid date and if the end of November remains to be true then Christmas really has come early! :D

  • nice bit of equipment
