  • This is my cousin's phone and it came from japan and was sim locked there. We unlocked it and it worked fine and receives and sends sms. The only problem is when I try to seccretly browse her files via bluetooth (I do this all the time with other people who have a Nokia and other manufacturers and it works fine. Even on laptops.) But I always get disconnected so I can't remotely obtain,delete and modify her files without her permission. It's so frustrating! I also have this file browsing problem on Samsung phones.

  • is there any shop here in dubai, uae can buy accessories for 703sh?

  • I want to know where I can download driver for sharp 705sh connect by cable

  • in the philippines, you can already openline 705sh using xsim.i bought one that costs 900 pesos only in the mall beside quiapo church. it's on the second floor, right side of the escalator.just look for the shop coz i asked the other stalls and some of them sold it for 1,200 and up, but you'll find one that sells it for only 900!

  • In japan i can use this phone perfectly. cause those who are out of japan are hacking into the sim to make the phone work. So stuff like internet and mms do not work outside of japan, unless u are using softbank. So unfortunately for those who do not live in japan, u'll have to make do with 160 character sms. in japan we send emails rather than sms so therefore its very limited. Download games- i just download mine directly from the phone. Maybe u should try transferring the jar. files into your memory card directly. or try sending it by bluetooth from computer to phone. MUSIC- for music, u can use iTunes to convert all the songs into .aac format. which is technically .m4a Then just transfer via usb or into the memory card. as for using the music files as a ringtone or message tone, u cant use a large file size. only formats like .mid and .amr can be used. m4a however, can be used only if the file size is really really small. ( i think) Themes- custamo.com has some themes for download. They might have free themes? i download them directly with my phone. so i am not sure. Themes are in .thf format just my advice. do try them out and see if it works!

  • huh where and what web page can i find a free screen themes for 705sh?? any one can help me?? and what format it is?? im waiting

  • if you want to buy x-sim here in philippines if you are in quezon city area you can buy it in EVER Commonwealth it cost 2000 pesos service free of charge.

  • my fone automatically turns off and turn on immediately.... whats is the problem??????

  • and where i can find an x-sim?

  • sure?! but how much its cost an x-sim???????

  • you can now use your 705sh in the philippines using x-sim hehehehe

  • how about ur mms, does it work already?

  • Uhmm... I am not using my M4A formatted songs as any ring tones im using it in my Media Player, My only problem is i cant use any .jar and .jad file

  • i can use Media Player well i don't know what your problem is all my music are in M4A format we have disame problem about not using it as an message alert tone. but there are many sites that you can download polyphonic tones

  • i've already converted the songs to m4a format but still it cant ber set as a ringtone as well as a message alert tone. and regarding the sms, why cant i send a message that goes beyond 160 characters?

  • does anyone know what music format does this phone require so i could set a particular music that i prefer as a ringtone, if not as a message alert tone? and any ideas on the gprs and mms settings?

  • I Said Use MP4 or M4A Type Of Songs Convert Them Using ImToo MP4 Video Converter, I DOnt Think They Dont Support MP3 Type of Songs

  • I'm using this phone in Japan. I want to buy a bluetooth handsfree and thinking of Plantronics, but don't have idea whether they are compatible or not. I've checked in plantronics site, but they don't have this phone on the list for checking compatibility. Anybody can help me? thanks alot

  • Levi! hey, your from the philippines right, so your brother is using it right now, maybe the fone is just roaming and not using the simcard in the philippines, i hope you will respond to my question.

  • Of course it shows who's calling....why else is it there? Think before speaking....

  • A little question... does the outer display shows who is calling?

  • Whats the deal with the tiny front LCD screens on Sharp phones? No good.....

  • wheres the sidekicks? i know theyre made by sharp, i think, they say SHARP on the back of the screen when its flipped out...

  • Levi, i use itunes to convert the mp3 to m4a so it would play on the phone..did u encounter that prob even b4 its unlocked?

  • SX633 IS NOT 705sh... SC633 is a combination of 705sh and 770sh

  • i bought this phone almost 4mo ago in U.S, and still waiting.. so this is not unlocked yet right? whats difference between SX633 and 705SH? how do we know which is which? Thanx :D

  • yeah, thanks Levi.. will wait for your update :)

  • Hey Levi, was it unlocked in the phils or just roaming service?

  • The can be open. My brother is using it here in the Philippines.

  • No, mobile phones bought in Japan are locked and cannot be used outside Japan.

  • the phone it's very good.you love it if you will buy

  • Can you buy this cellphone from japan and then use it in a forgein country? thnx ;D

  • it has mp3 ringtones

  • at the features it says that there is an mp3 player but at the ringtones section it says that there are only polyphonic ringtones.

  • my friends say when they first see 705 oh you got a motorola v3????

  • mp3 max 192kbps

  • Hi, I have problems to put mp3 aac and mp4 files on the 705SH. After formatting the SD card with the phone, I can see at least the files on the phone, but they have a wrong format. What might be the reason?

  • have u done any market research?? do u have any idea what u r talking about? have u heard of 910sh!?!?!

  • i'm disapointed..because i'm a big fan o Sharp camera's and i expected that the next phone that they will bring on the market will be a 5mpx one with a real Flash on it..to beat n95..and any other 5mpx phone brand out there....i'm just waiting for that day...:(...

  • TO GSM arena, this phone is not the HK version SX633, the 770sh is the SX633, please take a look

  • for gods sake, no english predictive text.... does ANYBODY know if it can be activated, all of these good reviews are pointless, a phone with no english predictive text is like living in the stone age ug ug...

  • 705sh is an excellent phone, except cant unlock, yet!! What the hell were they thinking???

  • I can�t use mp3 files with this phone. I�ve tried with the Sharp software and saving directly in the microSD card. The only way I found is to convert to m4a file with iTunes. Who had this same problem?

  • its a nice looking phone but since its locked to use only softbank simcard which is not faire at all thats ok to use in japan only softbank card but you should provide software to use in forign country also. my friend has brought phone for me but it has became just a paperwait on my table .please provide software to open simlock.kamal Vijay from India

  • erm....theres not 705sh logo...omfg...use ur brain!!

  • for mp3.. try to use Itunes for loading music to ur 705sh.. u can also set as ringtone.. new 705sh logo has changed to softbank..

  • wow, its been a long while and no unlock mechanism has surfaced for these in all this time... mine has become a very pretty and pristine paperweight on my desk. i guess it would be too easy if this phone could just be flashed w/ the FW from the SX663 version to get it unlocked? i'm starting to despair after this amount of time, especially since Softbank has now taken over Vodafones JP interests.. :(

  • To anyone who has the sx633. How easy is it to upload mp3 music files to the phone? And can you use it as a ringtone or do you have to trim the size down first before you can use it as a mp3 file ringtone?

  • matthew, you can change it by pressing the upper-right button - the one above 3. i have that phone and it's great - the only problem i have is that nobody can take off my simlock here, in poland.. guess i have to wait.

  • Ive heard rumours that this phone requires a DRM (digital rights management)wrapped MP3/MP4 before it will allow you to assign the file as a ringtone. This Means that you have to buy the Mp3 or MP4 from your carrier before you can assgn the tone to be a ringtone .....sucky!

  • hey matt u bought ur 705 in softbank? does it still have the vodafone logo on the phone?

  • Ive just bought a 705sh from softbank here in japan, the overall phone is pretty good. But... does anyone know how the hell english predictive text works, i cant get it to work at all, the phone operates in english but when typing msgs etc the pad will only type single letter at a time?? thanks m

  • I am so far unable to use .m4a/.aac files as ringtones on my Japanese 705SH. I've tried files under 300 kb, on the phone memory and on the card memory, still nothing. Suggestions, or am I screwed?

  • too bad that this phone is only a 2 megapixels phone with a CMOS camera lens.... if its a 3 megapixels with a CCD lens and key buttons like 903sh, i will definitely consider this phone.....but i dun like HK's SX633 smartone-vodafone fw....coz SV really suck at making fws

  • To the reviewer above, you obviously posted more than once. Get a life and stop posting garbage reviews. You are obviously bitter that you could not even get your hands on this phone to review it. Spare reviewers your brainless comments. Now for a review of the phone from an actual owner/user: I have the SX633 SmartTone Vodaphone. It's pretty much the same as the 705 but with different firmware to accomodate language. The UI is somewhat complicated to use at first but with all Sharp phones, it really takes some getting use to and changing the UI is not something Sharp has planned anytime soon. Despite the difficult UI, the sound quality of the phone is amazing. It's crisp, clear...I was simply amazed this mobile could play my tunes better than some of my MP3 cell phones. I have yet to run a movie on this phone so I aplogize I have no comments for that feature as of yet... The screen, as usual, is brilliant. The small screen in the front of the phone is somewhat useless though as it is often quite difficult to see the little icons and lettering for Caller I.D. If this is Sharp's way of implementing design improvement or change for their line of cell phones, it does not win me over at all. The small screen at the front is definitly not a value-added benefit. Perhaps it would be better to remove the front screen to bring down the price a little... Portability - the Sharp 705/SX633 is convenient to carry around (this is obvious). The 2megapixel camera was a fair trade off to slim down its size. Besides, at 2 megapixels, it is good enough to take decent photos for print. The switch on the outside of the phone that changes camera modes is also a rather cute touch...it gives the cell phone a little bit of photo versatility. All in all, the Sharp 705 / SX 633 is a decent phone.

  • Sharp is Blunt get a move on Sharp or get out of the way so annoying seeing same product recyled 10OX like the V3.

  • AND ALL THESE GREAT BENEFITS OF 705SH For rediculous price of $450!!!!!! WHAT'S UP SHARP? Why should I choose you and not Panasonic SA7? Only because you have garbage quality video call (which is not in the U.S. anyway) and because you have a card slot???? No, I don't need a card slot on a phone! I need great batterry performance for my bluetooth, and strong, stylish durable design. That's why I choose Panasonic!!!!

  • Now, Sharp got infected with slimness as well!!! WHY????????? WHAT DO YOU NORMALLY GET FROM A SLIM PHONE? -Small batterry capacity -Unconfortable phone holding -Low earpiece sound quality -Unusable Bluetooth (because of small batterry) SHAME, SHAME, SHAME, SHAME!

  • Can someone tell me how the "face recognition" work? What has it to do with my normal daily life?

  • I want to buy a phone but I don't know which..I like this one but I have doubts about it: the trasference of photos to a computer it's easy?; how many days battery keeps alive?; and about camera quality?is it good? I apreciate that you answer me as soon as possible!I need a phone urgently! Thanks

  • my friend changed his phone from 903sh to 705sh....and he regret about the change... well the only thing which is good about this phone is the slim part..no other but i do think that 903sh is a whole lot better than 705, 904sh...

  • SHARP....u r the best of the best.....to be honest...i love sharp phone i owned sharp sx813 ....huuuuhhuhuu....this is the best phone in the world......honestly

  • I recently left Japan and when I cancelled my cell (a 705SH), they took the SIM card so I'm unable to view all my saved mails and pictures. Is there any way to access these files? Do I have to unlock it to do this? Thanks and sorry if this is an uninformed question.

  • why tt dun have gold... izzt they dun sell or ?

  • dis 705sh is available in hk know as sx633, only sell in smartone-vodafone stores.the price in hk is bout $4000 which is almost 400euros. ppl can check out smartone-vodafone will unlock the fone for 800HKD. the fone lang can be either english or chinese

  • Hi Guy, I think that you must have the Sharp 770SH not the 705SH cos the 705SH is sold through Vodafone Japan and isnt unlockable 1st, you will need to get network information from your service provider. Did you know that this phone will change from a Vodafone 705SH to a =SoftBank 705SH?? Softbank will take over vodafone KK on the 1st october and these new handsets are going on sale 19th Aug i have seen but i wouldnt imagine that we will see them until october. This is the same with all sharp and toshiba phones - Vodafone 904t - Softbank 904t they have changed the colours on the phone, the Vodafone 904Sh was Black, Violet and Blue but the Softbank 904SH will be White, Pink and Navy Blue Regards Tim

  • Hi Tim, What do you mean when you say that the device is unlockable??? I have a device here in Israel, and an Israeli sim-card, and I can use it to establish a simple phone call. What I didn't succeed to do is to create an HTTP connection to the internet. Any ideas?

  • @ Unknown ========== 902SH is ASV too :P 902SH is 2.4" in size though as where the 705SH is 2.0" or 2.2". That'll make it look much finer. I felt like that with my old 802SH (2.2" ASV) and the 903SH (2.4" ASV). Harlekkin

  • @ Timmy Hey, forget about 905SH all together. There is no unlock for it as it is only single-mode WCDMA. You can't even roam on the damn thing (source: vodafone.co.jp). Reasons for this is the incompatibility with foreign TV signals. It could overheat and damage the phone. 705SH is sweet, though I did hope it's size would be smaller. I saw the 770SH in the UK and was quite shocked that it's only slim, but not necessarily smaller. Other than that SHARP phones are the bomb! The quality and easy of use can certainly compete with the overrated Nokia. Let's not even talk about camera quality... cheers, Harlekkin

  • this photo does not do the phone justice...saw it today at Smartone in HK and it's not only slim as a Panasonic VS7, but comes with a very smooth, polished finish (like the LG chocolate, especially the black version of this phone). Also, the screen is absolutely fabulous....sharp has adopted its Aquos LCD tv technology to the screen of this phone, so in fact even though it's only QVGA resolution, it looks markedly better than my 902sh :) Good job Sharp!

  • Hi Kevin If you are wanting a Sharp slim phone then get the 770SH, this one is fully unlocked without some not so good Japanese locks and aplications on it. 705 904 804 905 arnt unlockable yet, We will see what the not so far away future holds for us 904 owners ;) Tim

  • i juz wonder if the 705Sh is the same as 770sh ?? i have looked through the specifications of both cellphones and they are pretty similar for outlook or functions .. but the camera s different though . btw.. is 705sh available for sim unlock ?? otherwise it cant be used in anywhere .. .T_T

  • Hi Guy Do you meen that you are using 705SH outside Japan??????? They arnt unlockable yet?? Tim

  • Im trying to use this phone with an Israeli sim card. How can I connect to the internet?? When I go into "Vodafone live" I get the following error: "Network connection information is not acquired. Please retrieve Network Information First". What should I do now?

  • kewl phone! juz got it today... hahaha... guess i might be e first to own tis phone in my country... superb features!

  • This wouldve been the best mid class fone if it has flash. -.- i'm not even asking for autofocus. but at least give a flash?

  • whats happened to sharp, the design of their phones has got vey boring & square, come on sharp we expect more for our money

  • Hi Pepto 804ss is a very very nice phone, but you gotta get 804ss firmware from Japan or the Z540v Vodafone one.. the Z548 and the Z540 is BOOOORING!!! As for the 705SH... If you arnt in Japan.. dont get it yet as there is no unlock for the phone yet, Unless you wanna get it.. sit on it for a bit and when the unlock comes out sell it or then use it? Otherwise I recomend the UK ver of the 770SH (705SH) jus that the UK version can be unlocked and dosnt have those Japanese Sharp firmware limitations. Overall.. Id get the 804ss now if you do need a phone NOW. or sit on a 705SH until unlocking.. as for me... I have Brought a Black locked 904SH and I am using my 903SH UK version until the unlockng for the 904SH comes out and then.. Out the 903SH goes. All sharp phones are AMAZING But this time due to there being no unlock out yet.. i would have to recomend Samsung 804ss this time. Thanks Tim

  • I'm wondering about the mp3 ringtone option too. I can't decide between this and the Samsung 804ss and that may be the deal breaker.

  • it doesnt say theres mp3 on the ringing tone but it does hav a mp3 player so does it mean i can still set mp3 as my ringing tone? and also, anybody know where i can get this phone online? i really like it... >< azn_boy r u selling them...?!?!!

  • azn_boi_128, You mentioned you can get the Japanese version of this phone. How can I contact you? Cheers

  • i also know exactly where you can get one if you arent in japan --> me

  • its avaliable only in japan

  • nice specs and all too, anyone know places selling it already? I know only saw a couple on ebay so far.

  • looks good, but does it work well? And why would u want to collect phones, get a real hobby whoever u are (to the person below)

  • Its really a fantastic phone, i am surely gonna buy this phone. Sharp always rocks!!!!

  • already ordered =D should be a nice phone to add to my collection of sharp phones

  • hot phone.

  • this phone has been released today .. its a good phone it may look "bland" like hana says but in terms of functional use sharp always wins

  • I think this one's gorgeous

  • ....I think they need to recruit some new designers too,the red 903 is the only sharp model that looks half-way attractive in my eyes,this model and most of the others sharp have released just look pretty bland compared to some of the competitors.

  • sharp should start putting a radio in their latest phone, this feature becomes a standard feature in other brand and sharp should catch up

  • @ Unknown, it's actually a Japanese model, released by Vodafone KK. Just found it on their web site. We'll see if it gets released in Europe, as I think the 770SH is its European brother. Just an observation, nothing more... no reason to get upset. Skater42

  • this phone looks pretty sweet... i just bought the 904 waiting for unlock.. prolly will buy this one too in GOLD cuz its so sexy!!

  • Very interesting... I haven't seen this phone at Softbank/Voda KK, but if you look closer at the keys you'll find Japanese Characters printed on them. Cool! Skater42

  • nice phone. sharp make da best phones
