The phone works but just displays the incorrect network name I think the network number is 23410?

  • dear new owner. this is quite an old model. i'm using this phone for about a year now. some explanation for those who don't know. 1. no usb driver needed. install activesync 3.8 and plug your phone. won't work with activesync 4 since it was tailored for wm5. yes, you can sync using bluetooth. 2. no mp3 ringtone. only wma and wav. so sad o2 didn't come with ROM update. BUT you can replace your ROM with others e.g. imate. anyway this void your warranty. 3. default file manager won't allow bluetooth transfer. need to install third party. 4. auto GPRS, WAP, MMS setting can be done at data connection at start menu. 5. for the reminder thingy, try google for maniac auto keylock (freeware). i think that's it. just caring to share some information. TQ.

  • Great Phone buddy!!! www.google.com

  • have had this phone for a couple of months and it works sweet. I have made a few mod's and I suspect that is the main reason for some system hangs. I need to restart once a week to avoid lock ups. It can be a little hard to use initially but once you get used to it you won't go back. Main plus is that it uses Windows Mobile as the OS. You can sync with Outlook as it uses activesync, which for me is fantastic. Has all the features that you could want (well, that I could want, and half of them I don't use). Installation of software is pretty simple but can be a little problematic due to compatibility. Greater flexibility over look and feel that I am used to, however, to really customize it, I would suggest that you actually be a developer in this field. Previous phone was a motorazor, which was great except for the calendar function, single entry contacts being duplicated. I find that this is more of a general use phone (work, rest and play).

  • Has anyone installed a flash player into this phone? Or any other apps for that matter - I keep getting CAB not designed for this system errors. . .

  • can this phone open a powerpoint file and connect it to a tv projector for presentation?

  • Hmm. I want you to share my results I found for the XPhone II. How to send files via bluetooth. You have to use Smart Explorer. Register urphone at seeo2.com and u can get a free download of the software along with Register code. How to receive files. Make sure RECEIVE BEAM FROM ALL USERS is active in BEAM Sounds. I got the files in my ringtones list. Search in download.com for MP3 to WMA to get the software. For alarms etc it aceepts only WAV files. Make sure to download O2 Connect from the seeo2.com website. It allows automatic keylock and theme organiser among adding a nice cool interface. Now regarding download for codecs. I found this really good player called TCPMP from www.tcpmp.org The player has a host of codecs which are available on the website. PRoblems i am facing with the phone. 1)Battery gets discharged fairly quickly.Even if i am not talking full time, or watching movies or listening to music. I think its simply the problem of the display so make sure display settings are low and display goes off fairly quickly. The helpdesk said to keep GPRS and BLUETOOTH off when not needed to save battery. Ok last thing for the very bravehearted check the link to download the latest update for Windows Mobile SE. Not 5.0 but i think installs Mediaplayer 10. Again this is HIGHLY RISKY. Please take backups and if u screw up ur phone is gone. Anything else, you can always email me.

  • dear all, can anybody tell me about O2 connect for thi Xphone II, cause until now i can't connect to the internet. if anybody know how to setting the internet/gprs please send me email. this is urgent thanks allot guys. . .

  • Does anybody know if this phone offers pocket excell. I have heard that you can download it as a 3rd party softwear.

Kudos to them and keep up the good job!

  • Hi Eleanor, Your phone should be GPRS ready the moment you switch it on! You�ll know this when you see a �G� symbol on the top of your screen. If you don�t have this �G� symbol, do contact your service provider.

  • Yea, i also wanted to ask how can I use loud speaker mode when talking to someone over the phone

  • Hi, can this phone change the viewing setting for the icons(message,camera,etc..) when u press the start. i mean like thumbnail. Xphone IIm can make. Anybody? Thanks!

  • i love my phone by the design and its function. The thing is the bottons are very easily damaged and the after sales is incredible. The product like this require 3 days to have it checked or I have to pay extra as urgent case. Please note that they havent checked, or touch, my phone at all but insist that they will need 3 working days to do it. What if the problem is so small as just a s/w set up or manufacturer error? another point is as a phone, I suppose i might have extra to use during the 3 days but as a PDA, with the lifestyle that required a PDA, can we live or should i use the word survive?, 3 days without PDA? so 1: Can they take a look at the problem to defy the problem? then name the period required for fixing it. 2: If they can do an urgent case at extra cost within 5 hours, why normal case take 3 days? Isn't that an unfair play? I feel like being forced to accept the extra charge for the urgent case. Any explanation? Kidz

  • I am impressed by the feature of the phone.But my problem is witht the keys as I find it difficult to enter indormation faster which is frustrating.Also the speaker volume is not sufficient.

  • Hi folks, Could someone on this forum help me set my message centre number for sms - I am receiving regular sms (txt) messages but cannot receive business cards!!!! plz help

  • This phone is awesome, anyone who wants a quality phone with heaps of features should buy one. I had a k700i before this and a string of Nokia's, Motorola's and Sony Ericssons as well. This is definitely the best, especially the huge colour screen. Initiially, it can be difficult to use for people used to the Nokia menus, but use it for 3 days and you'll find heaps of cool features and shortcuts that'll make you forget all the others. You can customise the ringtone and message alert tone, but not with MP3's which is annoying. Also, not being able to have a different ringtone for each profile is frustrating, as is lack of OBEX Bluetooth file transfer. These slight annoyances are far outweighed by the overall coolness of the phone. IM fans will appreciate the built in MSN client.

  • does the phone has mp3????????

  • hi icarus the best gprs services telco in m'sia is DIGI!!

  • Hard reset O2 XPHONEII if anything else fails: - remove battery for few minutes, put back, hard reset is done by the pressing the two black buttons (left/right just below the lcd). Hold the soft buttons and then press the power on/off button (it takes some excercise). Release the power on/off button but keep the L/R soft keys pressed, until you see a message for factory settings. Relase L/R buttons and choose '0' button to continue. After that your phone is back in default factory mode. - it does take some time and excercise to push the buttons in the right sequence. Just keep trying.

  • Hi everyone, please let me know how to hard reset o2 xphone ii?

  • Hi Malaysian users.... what telco supports GPRS the best in Malaysia? I'm currently on Celcom is its very very slow. Can anyone recommend a faster GPRS connection in Malaysia. Thanks.

  • to search for contact, use keypad 2-9 like in Nokia O2 will search it accordingly. Example, John, press 5646 SIM contact are all contacts stored in SIM card if I'm not wrong About GPRS : if you've turned it off by holding the home button, then it's off. The G symbol appear at the top of the screen shows that there is GPRS service available, but it's off.For GPRS on, there's another symbol (refer to the manual)

  • how to do a search for name in contacts? what is the diff btw sim contacts and the contact button?

S'pore here just repair the casing cost abt S$180 & S$80 for the labor fees. the weak point of this phone is can't read or write microsoft word and excel. knew there are some 3 parties software but still only read. by pressing "house" button, it will lead u to how to off the GPRS or BT. a lot of bro here just posting q but no one answer q. hope i have answered some of bros q here!!

  • I have been using it for about 2 month. Following are the problem that I had with my unit. Can anyone verify it whether it is just the problem of my unit, or it is a common error for all the units? 1. My Xphone II seems like it only can support half duplex when it is on speaker phone mode. Meaning if two party talk at the sametime, the non-Xphone II user will not be able listen to my voice. 2. Music/Sound quality turn bad whenever perform the following: (a) Make a call -> (b) turn on speaker phone mode -> (c) turn off speaker phone mode -> (d) terminate the call -> (e) listen to any MP3/WMA song, the sound quality turn bad.

  • Great phone,quite user friendly. The only thing which I can't do is to send contact number to someone else using sms. Btw, anyone knows what is the maximum size of SD memory card which can be used in this phone ? I think 64 Mb is not enough. What brand is good ?

  • Hi, I just bought this phone few days ago all because it looks good, and people recommend. This is my first smartphone, I dont have a clue how to use its features apart from normal phone use, eg. how to download mp3, themes etc from the internet with or without the WAP and from my pc. The manuals doesn't explain all this. Does anyone know where I can get a step by step tutorials to do the above? Thx guys..

  • Where can I get software for Chinese support on XphoneII?

  • how i can get free software of notepad or microsoft word? thank you

  • Turn off GRPS? If I'm correct: hold HOME key for few seconds. Menu will come up with GPRS ON/OFF....

  • Communications between other brand of phones to O2 Xphone II. a)Put the O2 bluetooth on discoverable mode. b)Then search for the other devices if possible do a pairing of the two devices. I believe this can send ringtones, contacts , pictures from other phones.

  • O2 Xphone II has no automatic keylock, need to actvate manually by holding the red off button for two seconds and then release.

  • How do I send a Contact via SMS. So easy on every other phone I have owned...

  • Does this O2 Xphone 2 have automatic keypad lock? Please tell me...thank you

  • I am struggling to have the phone syn with Avango.Also, using the bluetooth from my SEMC phone to send contact list to 02Xphone is impossible. Can someone help me.

  • Does anyone knows how to disconnected "GPRS in use" symbol (refer to user manual under Status indicators p. 13), after finish browsing internet??? Cheers

  • May i know how to listen to mp3 via bluetooth headset? The sound is from the phone rather than through the bluetooth headset. When i plug in my stereo headset,the sound came out from both headset and phone..Is this normal for XphoneII? Thanks.

  • Is the Xphone 2 better that the xphone 1?

  • please give the price of this mobile

  • Does anyone know if this is the same as T-Mobile SDA? Thanks.

  • Can anyone tell me, whether this phone has a certain function whereby it permits the user to block and or reject automatically certain Numbers/all numbers in their Phone Lists..kinda like in the Sony Erricson Phones and or the Nokia ones.

  • Hmm...that's odd cos one of the thread from mok has been able to do hard reset. I had forgotten my password and followed the manual to reset but in vain. Not sure where I had gone wrong :(

  • hey, to do a hard reset is impossible. Although the manual books written the instructions to do a hard reset, I can't do it. They require a special card to put into the slot and perform a hard reset. Only the O2 centre has the card. All you need to do is send the phone back to the service centre. They can do for you. I can't find anything good about this phone. I've been "dealing" this phone and less features then Nokia. This phone doesn't even have a callers' group ringtones... Not sure about that. But it's running quite slow.

  • Can't hard reset my phone :/ Have been trying over 10 times but it just starts up as per normal. Anyone out there able to do it? I did press and hold the 2 softkeys(below the screen) and power button at the same time and keep holding till it starts up. I am at a lost now...anyone have any suggestion?

  • yes this phone can send files via bluetooth by default, just on the bluetooth then load up the file explorer (or send via IR) and send it will show searching infrared and just searching (which is bt)

  • headsets use the head set pin depends on your headset check your user manual for example nokia and se headsets are usually 0000

  • I can't sync my bluetooth headset with my Xphone II b/c of lost pin. Any ideas? Would hard reset work? Thanks!

  • New user to O2 Xphone II .. everytime i try to go to certain websites .. the top of the screen shows that title . but the page never loads into the phone .. can anyone help me .. do i need to get some Java application or something ... other pages like yahoo .. etc .. ok .. thanks .. email me at [email protected] greatly appreciated

  • Cannot enter a new line for SMS/Text Message. It looks fine when you compose the SMS, but when you sent it, the text is shown on the same line.

  • - free utils + games (classics). See website for instructions free registration. Better produce your own ringtones. Use any soundclip/movieclip, edit (about 20 sec), save as wav, put in my documents folder. Start->settings>homescreen> choose your own sound.wav

  • I'm a first-timer.Could someone pls tell me where to get free O2 xphone II games and ringtones,thks!

  • hon: you need to get pocketMAC program,

  • If you want to send pics/sound/files use the multimedia album. Start> Menu> Multimedia Album. You can send SMS with any pic/sound/files with it.

  • adi & others: Here's a list of things to improve your Xphone II smartphone. I won't copy&paste links, you need to find for yourself. Must have: - RJV SMS Scheduler (freeware), - Cleartype (freeware), crisp display! - Oxios Hibernate (freeware), frees up memory, - Speedboost (freeware), speedup your smartphone, I tested, it works! - Speedmenu (freeware), speedup menu scrolling, it works! - BetaPlayer (freeware), nice movie/music player, equalizer settings etc., sound quality is noticeable less than the MS Mediaplayer, - Karpersky Mobile Anti-Virus (trial), DOES NOT WORK on Xphone II, - Trend Micro Mobile Anti-Virus (beta), does work but for some strange thing the ActiveSync is lost (I've contacted support and wait for answer), first product working with resident scanner, - Airscanner anti-virus, does work, except no resident scanner (pity), - Regedit for MS Smartphones, the version I had does install, does run,does edit only gives soft reboot when do a FIND key.... Hope this helps!

  • you can do speakerphone by holding the green button when calling. Can someone tell me how to attach contact/phone number in SMS?

  • Anymore try synchronising the phone with a MAC? Does it work with Bluetooth on a MAC? Thought of getting thid phone but then I m using a MAC & the Xphone r on a Windows version. dunno whether it works?? pls advise, thks in advance

  • thanks mok! i took the battery out and put it back on. the phone's working fine now.

  • Great, exactly what I need, a combined Address-Contact PDA and Phone. Very compact, great to use, fabulous Synch with Outlook. Q1: how do I send a contact via SMS. So easy on every other phone I have owned...

  • Hi. I got my XPhone II about a week ago. I wanted to get the O2 XDA II Mini, but instead I got myself the XPhone II because of my tight budget. But to my surprise, the XPhone II works well and I loved it. It's a great phone to have. Here in Malaysia, mobile phone vendors are selling the "normal" type of mobile phones. So owning a smartphone like this one will surely turn a few heads. Parts? Batteries? Covers? Repairs? No problem. There are many O2 dealers here in Malaysia. The replacement parts are cheap and easy to find. Truly, I am happy with my XPhone II.

  • Did someone noticed that putting files in your temp directory always get deleted after power off/on? Is there a way to keep those files you want to have without regediting values? I've downloaded unlock program which seems to work excellent, everytime copying back is a nag. Thanks.

  • The O2 Xphone II does not support beaming of files to another phone via Bluetooth. The 3rd party software, Smart Explorer can do.

  • can anyone pls gimme information on its bluetooth usability?i mean can i send pictures and stuff thru bluetooth??thans

  • Oh, yes, that's true forgot to mentioned, you need to take the battery and wait few minutes before putting back. From then follow what I've written before. Should work, don't worry and your xphone2 is up and running!

  • hi mok, thanks for your advice. tried hard reset but nothing happens. what's strange is that i can't turn the phone off by pressing the power button either. i am very tempted to just take the battery out....

  • Freshman: try a hard reset, or your settings for the screen timeout/backlight is too short? Hard reset is done by the pressing the two black buttons (left/right just below the lcd). Hold the soft buttons and then pres the power on/off button (it takes some excercise). Release the power on/off button but keep the L/R soft keys pressed, until you see a message for factory settings. Relase L/R buttons and choose '0' button to continue. After that your phone is back in default factory mode. Hope this helps. BTW the O2 website doesn't work, the helpdesk is slow to react. Pity, the phone is stacked with well thought functionality.

  • Just got it 2 days ago. Everthing has been fine until this afternoon....the screen went dark but the LED light shows good status. No matter what button i pressed, nothing happened. i charged the phone for about 10 hours last night, so don't suppose it's because of power problem.... Please help!!!

  • Another thing I look for: How to edit any shortcut in O2 xphone II? I mean, you can display the shortcut (file) properties, but cannot change the directory path. I've got an app which I want to customise to /storage card/programs/ etc. Any ideas, or is there a system util for this?

  • Oh. I got it. Found with some testing around the sequence of hard reset = soft key (L/R) + Power Button.....

  • Excellent choice! Only question is how to hard reset this phone? I bought mine in HK with only the Chinese manual supplied. So again, hard reset for this phone type. Thanks!

  • Hi, Can someone share with me, how to read chinese on XphoneII. Can i download any software to make it work, thanks.

  • I've been using xphoneII for about 2 months now. And i find it to be an excellent device. I'v read thru the other opinions and realised that most, if not all, of the problems can be solved. its just the matter of whether the owner is willing enough to read thru the manual or explore the phone's functions and capabilities.

  • bought this phone 3 days ago. had a hard time finding a spare battery! can someone tell me where to buy in singapore? quite difficult to find accessories

  • I bought this phone 2 days ago, and I think this phone, good enough for using. But, I'm so surprised that this phone only can send data via infra red, for example, sound file, on the other hand, this phone cannot send picture via bluetooth, or infra red. also, this phone can not loud speaker..

  • How on earth do you do a "hard reset" on the "Xphone II". I have tried removing the battery for 5 secs and holding down the voice record button then rebooting the phone .......etc without any luck. phone running Mobile Windows 2nd ed. Please helpppppppppppp. Regards Elie

  • before buying this phone, i just wanted to ask for some opinions. does it have excel and word in it? does it hang as often as XDA II ? how long does the battery really last? thanks.

  • Potential buyers: Check your keypads and cursor to make sure that they work. The cursor and "2" key on my phone don't always work and be careful when putting the phone into the case because the cursor will come off. Happened to me twice and lost the cursor the second time it happened, brought it to the distributor and have to shell out 20 US bucks to replace and they blamed me for not being more careful. Setting the phone can be a bit of work for those not familiar. I travel a lot and getting signal and logging to networks are not always successful, I carry 2 Nokias as well and they do not have this logging on problem. Status of phone: In the distributor waiting for the cursor to be replaced, will have it back next week then it's bye bye. I am selling it.

  • Have been using this for 2 months. Excellent device. Some things I particularly like bout it: - Very compact design, optimised surface space use. e.g. big screen. - Solid architecture. No creaky sounds, elegent matt dark surface. - Good tactile feedback. The keys are solid but comfortably sensitive. - Fast interface response time. - Good mp3 player. Ditched my 30Gb mp3 player and got a 512Mb mini-SD for this. But the bass' weaker. - The 'joystick's response and feel is good. Probably considered a bit too sensitive. - Fast and reliable data transfer with the PC via usb. - Good screen rez and colour contrast. - Good shortcut keys configurability, like the siemens', but not as good as moto's. - Con: Camera's quite bad, esp in night mode. Not sure what's the issue bout the backlight, mine's back-lighting happily enough. May wanna check your settings. Another con's it doesn't have in-built capability to send data via bluetooth. Needs a 3rd party software. You can use the 'smart explorer' to cut-copy-paste, ZIP, and send by IR/bluetooth. Can get this from: Have used the 6230, cx65, t630 before. Wanted to get the k700i earlier but read that it keeps falling apart, glad the xphone2 entered the market and solved my dilemma. :). Have fun.

  • i heard that this type of phone have a lot of comments. first, the bluetooth connectivity was not working as normal. for example can receive data but cannot send data. this true or not. one more is no back light for the keypad. anyway i hope this kind of problems can be solve as soon and now i in planning buy this 02 xphone 11. thanks.

  • is there a usb mini mouse for this phone(orange spv c500)

  • I bought this phone yesterday from [email protected] for �179 on pay as you go. its the damn cuttest phone ive ever seen, small too and really powerful. i can use programs that are designed for pocket pcs and its fast too, 200mhz processor. the good part is they threw in a free 128mb card for storage. long live mp3's

  • I want my phone to have all those features listed,especially a built in ATi Imageon or a nVidia GoForce,but you realise it will cost an ungodly amount!

  • Hi pipol! Any idea where can I buy the unit here in the Philippines?...Thanks in advance!

  • How can i buy it from istanbul ??

  • also nvidia 3d graphics chip would be cool for games.

  • i would really like to see this released with wifi, an sd/sdio card slot along with a compactflash card slot (so i can use the phone as an fm radio tuner), also a 256k color screen, 1.3mp camera or higher. i would like to see it accept up to 4gb or higher as you can get software for a neonode n1 to accept up to 4gb max.

  • SP3i can be had from many vendors including www.expansys.com and www.e-fonez.net, priced from free on contract to 280UKP sim free. It doesnt support WIFI, however can take minisd cards up to 1GB at present HTH jim

  • Anybody know what the video quality is like for clips that have been uploaded to it from a pc? Also is it true that there are no MP3 ringtones?

  • excellent looking especially with the joystick, its looks and features. i wish they would hurry up and release this phone in the uk there are hardly any smartphones released where i live the only ones i know about are the n gage, the xda II and a few others but i never seen this babi. :)

  • received mine today from [email protected]. locked to o2 uk but the first thing i noticed is how small it is, like a t610 exactly and it looks gorgeous too. i love it

  • NIce handset, thin, light and feature packed, I have the imate sp3i version, but expect o2 to add their active userinterface amongst other things, also would have thought that MS would have added a document viewer / reader. No mp3 ringtones, no dedicated delete / cancel key as per symbian handsets, nor the ability to copy paste text some feaatures i loved in the 6600..... thats me for now. jim

  • is nice and portable, that is the phone am dreaming for i need it. thanks bye.

  • i love the phone and will want to use it

  • that is beautiful and charming. I like this style. It reveals my style

  • It's actually an Orange SPV C500, or HTC Typhoon as it's also known. The design of O2 xPhone II is, however, far superior in my opinion. As it's based on Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003SE, the phonebook may contain exactly the same amount of data as the MS Outlook adress book. Which means almost unlimited number of fields. It has mobile internet explorer, msn messenger, pocket Outlook - everything that the Orange SPV C500 / HTC Typhoon has, as it's basically the same phone.

  • nice this is a great job from what i hear the phone is compact i will enjoy using this

  • nice body...Finally, an O2 phone which looks solid and beautiful...really suites me!!!

  • Its just like motorola mpX 100!!

  • alafantastic man, i love it, whats the price. i need to buy now

  • its ok i found out it does. im stupid for askin that.

  • does this have internet explorer

  • hmmm great might purchase one is it small ?

  • looks realli snazzy i need to know the price now !

  • speaker handfree? phonbook memory should be more than 2000 x 3 feild

  • it looks good,much better than the xphone I.However,it is still lacking in several areas.A 256k screen would be a massive plus.Also,i may be asking for too much,but built in Wifi will be good too.Overall first impression:7/10

  • Looks similar to another phone but can't think which now! T9 text is back though unlike the woefully bad x3 model! Can I upgrade to one of these please?

  • it is cool fone,mp3,bluetooth,video record .....and so on,just like small note book.

  • hmm cool
