  • Yeah he did.

  • Hello guys, this phone has maga bass feature or no?

  • W995 is 2G or 3 G phone

  • 100th fan of this phone

  • The video camera is abysmal for a phone of this range. It's not even at least 240p!

  • Everything is working except Skype. Skype is officially discontinued for Java by Microsoft. Also, I still use this phone for music and incoming calls. I am really crazy about this phone cuz it is my first phone.

  • i love this phone and i wish in Malaysia still can sell this original model of W995

  • Does gps and email services still work on this phone?

  • Got this lovely phone a month ago as a fairly used one, everything is still intact. It feel robust and sturdy, the stereo loudspeakers sounds awesome, the battery is good as well. I can't let go of this machine no matter what, i'm just feeling the days of old again, the sony ericsson era

  • I need two devices from Sony Ericsson W995, can some one support me to get

  • I have two. but one of them had break becoz an accident. now, I still have one. still use it till now. best featured phone ever ! I also have another phone like c510, satio, c905, c902, k770, k800, xperia smartphone, and many others sony ericsson phone.

  • One of the best feature phone of all time, at least it's better than Blackberry

  • For internet use Opera Mini 8 java is great!

  • Yes very great and nice no tactile model, rivalise actuely no tactile because he's quality ! The last Sony Ericsson all options!

  • can u give ainformation that this phone has watsapp or not?

  • i have two sony ericsson w995. i like this amazing phone. i'm sony ericsson lover : )

  • Had one for ages never let me down,good battery and screen size 8mp camera is superb Can still pic up on auction sites Highly recommended....

  • I need it in which country are

  • hey. W995 is not slow, but it's not a smartphone. It doesn't take applications that run on smartphones. It was never slow on me, and never lagged. Sometimes the camera takes a few seconds to save a photo, but I didn't mind. It can have facebook and applications as jar files, and they won't lag at all. It's a fully featured phone, and a music beast. It has the best music output both from it's speakers and through headphones, and the loudest. (with rodriguez mod, mind you). Really if you are into music, there is no better choice.

  • goodmorning. may I ask you sth? experts say to prefer phones with over 3000mAh battery when we use iternet otherwise you are gonna load it 2, 3 times every day. Does it run quickly generally? either it is internet or other uses? I want to buy it but some told me that it is gonna be very slow. your opinion makes me think that they might be wrong

  • replce antena

  • i have one. but does the phone handle whatsapp ? if yes please send the link Thank you

  • I have used the W995 for six years,now its having a network problem which is no network coverage what should i do with it i do not want to lose this Phone please help me people.

  • Location please?

  • i have this fhone 5 years...together all the time .never have any problem...do you know any one if it is posibile to put 2 cart sim? thanx alot.

  • Hi there I have a preloved Sony Ericsson w995. Looks brand new and in great condition. How much are you willing to offer? :)

  • if there anyone still have this phone, i will buy it

  • I'm gonna buy this phone,although I used w810 and w910 in the old days, I'm gonna go for this ultimate walkman soon harhar...

  • If the item is refurbished it means it has new parts, replaced and it still can be original, as many parts are still has the same manufacture, most of refurbishment it's outside the phone, changing new fascia and battery giving a new look. But inside it's still the same Sony Ericsson mobile phone. Sony Ericsson W995 its' grea mobile phone, nice camera lenses, the phone produce great sound with two speakers, has a good memory. Would recommend to anyone looking for reliable mobile phone. Though it's 6 year old but it's much better by quality than some touch screen phones at present days

  • how to raise the volume of music in the sonyericsson w995 without button

  • well if you bought it in package then it might be original other than if u bought it by ebay or amazon it could be refurbished one..check it by connecting to your pc suite or i heard about that the malaysian manufacturing parts are little bit poor in quality...

  • No

  • How do you open this phone to change the SIM card?

  • Can you use Whatsapp?

  • it's true,this is a perfect stuff in every angle,i loved dis phone evertime

  • And I forgot to say one more thing; for all of you who are still using this awesome phone, if you have problems with his stock internet browser - install opera mini on W995. Go to m.opera.com with W995 and try it. It spends less MB during the month. I use only 250MB for a month. Now, which nowday smartphone is 'satisfied' with that amount of MB? :)

  • I got it as a gift from my uncle. I must say, W995 is almost better that all the smartphones out there. No need for constant app updating, it is compact and the battery is excellent. Excellent mobile phone in any way! Old is the best! :)

  • Still using mine after over 5 years. Best phone ever!

  • welcome to the club :)

  • I can't sell my 5 year old friend buddy, sorry.

  • the most durable phone i have ever had, although its a sliding phone but its stronger than any solid one, and has unbelievable features too, i still use it

  • i want this phone because it has a full pack features even i have sony k800 and i want even a used handy.

  • at amazon or ebay

  • you and me both my friend, you and me... both

  • This phone.. I have no words to describe it. It's part of me! I'm using w995 since 5 years ago, yes 5 entire years. We were watching all the idiots becaming smartphone obsessed and not obsessed with their real life. My W995 survived falls, water and it's still fully functional. Awesome 8mp camera (that with a camdriver the camera becames almost the same as C905's (Mine doesn't say camera, it says cyber-shot since the camdriver). Superb loud sound that beats the crup out of almost all current smartphones (especially through headset ear speakers). I compared it's sound with sony z3, and W995 has deeper and louder sound through the ear speakers, from their normal speakers W995 is only just a tic louder. I can surf the web. That means facebook, tweeter, youtube etc. W995 supports all these. I can download so many games from the internet (and now 100% free, if you know where to look for them), download very useful applications like water level and unit converter etc. And the best thing, it fits in my pocket XD.. let's see your smartphone do that! Plus I watch movies and pull a lot of attention in buses, people wonder how on earth a phone that old can be a movie player. Others complain about it being so loud (can't blame them here). So yeah, if you want a full feature mobile phone that will stay with you for years, go for it. It's small, it's freaking VERY durable and a great snapper (you can even let it on flat areas to take a group photo, no.. smartphones can't do that because of their ridiculous slim width). Oh and.. it can fit in your pocket, many smartphones can't do that. I have mine since 5 years ago and still love it.

  • Hi karthik, May I ask you,where did u buy it from? Amazon,ebay? I would like to buy one, I can't find any

  • not the quality i was expecting from Sony, weird charger port, extremely hard to use menus, sim card contact backup doesn't work, tiny hard to use buttons, kickstand is flimsy, normal sd card dose not fit uses an outdated (m2) card hard to find & expensive, & only has enough memory on board for about10 mp3's,, this phone was outdated before it was released not even close to the quality of other phones from 2009 not pleased at all

  • does my sony ericsson w995 support whatsapp

  • The best of Sony Ericsson Walkman series. Legend !!

  • In My Mobile Youtube was not working pls give me suggestions

  • I bought my w995 secondhand 5 years ago. I've replaced the battery once, which still lasts about 14 days between charge. Its only use is as an alarm clock, and music player when i'm fishing. I will never throw it away. These days the charging port needs regular cleaning to ensure a good connection.

  • STILL ON SALE on Ebay at £60-70. Bought 2 this year.

  • Anyone after getting a 2ndhand w995? Try looking in CEX - they check the imei before they buy their phones - so you know that you should be ok with w995. Camera is fine for things that are not moving! Anything that moves will become blurred - w995 is NOT a cybershot! My k770i took better pics than w995! Also paint comes off quite easily on red and black models even the genuine ones! Sound is crystal clear though - all together a nice premium slider! Not a smartphone though - you can get a few basic apps and games if you know what your doing though! Try searching umnet for games and apps - remember to put in 320x240 on the search so you get the right screen resolution!

  • It did support skype though!

  • does not support, it is not smartphone dude

  • i need to know whether it supports apps like wechat viber and whatsapp

  • The phone denies to play some mp3s. I don't which ones. Any ideas? The camera is terrible. Photos are full of noise. More like 1.3 or 2MPs. Even the slightest shake and the photo is completely useless. What am I doing wrong? Will waxing the camera glass help?

  • Check in eBay bro... I found one in eBay USA for 100$. Check in ebay UK. Getting a Brand new phone is not easy, since this phone is discontinued. U can get refurbished/new other.

  • Hi, I live in the UK and want to buy this phone (preferably brand new) . Do you know where I can buy it? Thanks

  • ideal phon3.

  • i wanna buy this cell

  • i wanna this phone. where i can buy here in portugal? it's still exist? what's the price? thanks.

  • hi !! my phone open than close in very schort time.....batery ok , band changed,,,

  • Don't buy one of these if you're in a poor signal area, these phones suffer from very poor reception. I only had one or two bars signal (or no signal at all) which dropped off completely when I picked it up, the ol' grip of death. Had to sell it, completely useless to me. You might be alright however if you have a phone mast in your back garden.

  • yes buy a aluminium haze ones not fake. the fake ones are lighter in weight. and check th emi number I've had 3 from china and all have past

  • if you buy one off eBay buy a aluminium haze phones that way its not fake. chines one. I've Had bought2 for spare phones and they are the real thing. If its fake the emi number is not recognised approved by BABT,(British Approvals board Of Telecommunications)IVE DONE THIS .AND BOTH HAVE PAST.I hope this helps you.

  • Hello I am looking forward to buy this phone. It is only available on ebay. As someone said ebay phones are not orignal. Can you tell following is orignal or duplicate.

  • I was used four years. Waste of money...range prblm. 8.1 mega pixel camera but bad clarity photo's. But that phone have good interface....yearly stip probleme...

  • viber device for sony ericsson w995

  • plz plz. Show me how to download whatsapp?

  • iwanted to know does sony ericsson w995 download whatsapp??if so whre cn i download it!

  • Regarding my earlier post about my brand new phone's short battery life, I figured that the ones from Ebay aren't the original models. They were just copied, since I noticed that the phone's box looks different as compared to the ones posted in Youtube around 2009, so therefore, my battery isn't really original too. It now lasts less than a day despite the fact that I don't use it all and there are no running apps in the background. It's ok though, since all phones are made in China nowadays. Just expect the print and casing colour to fade easily. I did notice something regarding the keypad. I noticed that the silver part that surrounds the keypad is starting to have little cracks near the keys due to constant texting. It is made of soft material to begin with. Does anyone else experience this? My phone is only 5 months old already.

  • if you need the best camera from "a phone", well u must have it... it's not good for ppl who want to explore what they want like android or anything (because nothing store in here), THIS PHONE IS GOOD FOR MEDIAS! Good speaker, very interesting!:)

  • in music and camera W995 is the winner, and come with top quality premium material case. N86 only win come with Symbian OS, but the build quality is sucks.

  • turn off 3g for much better battery time...(under 'internet settings')

  • I having trouble about my sense me media player please give me the total solution of the player.

  • w995i or N86 which is the best ??

  • how do I recharge

  • I bought this phone few years back. All I can say is its awesome. I've never post any comments regarding any phone I've used before. but for the benefits of others who want to have simple and affordable and does almost everything we need in a phone. this phone I can absolutely recommend! dedicated music button and loud speakers and calling clarity is just fantastic. And bright flashlight is a plus. And I don't have any problem with this phone so far even after using for a longtime.

  • Well, I had this phone for 3 years and love the sound out of the speakers and its small size too, and recently had to replace it. I bought it from 2 different reputable vendors on ebay (from the u.s. & the u.k.)and all 3 phones they sent me were Refurbished/rebuilt. The kickstand was weaker, the keypad wasn't the same as my original (it even had slanted numerals), the glass screen was inferior making it hard to see the display in sunlight. It does work technically fine though. I still am very upset because I wanted this phone brand new, but I may keep it because I don't think this phone can be easily purchased truly 100% brand new because its an old model....well if its really 100% new its gonna cost over $250 probably if you can find it....well, i dont recommend ebay is what im saying...and im not sure about the sellers from hong kong and china if theyre truly new or rebuilt.

  • I always love SE product.....great sound quality and cam are my major point

  • How can I find it in Egypt? I wish I can have a new one

  • plz vist near custmr center ...

  • I will start by saying that I refuse to advertise products for free if they are of poor quality or the company itself is shonky/shady and will only give praise if it has been earned and is deserved- I have had this phone before and am in the process of buying another. It is by far THE best phone I've ever had and will have again. It's a little old now given its release date was 2009/2010. However in some respects this phone was and is still a pioneer given the features it is crammed with. If you want an affordable, *tough* and *durable* phone that has great battery life and can still give the smartphones of today a run for their money. Dollar for dollar value, power and compatibility of modern phones. The only thing holding it back is it's out of date screen size (240X320) However, with this drawback comes a smaller phone that you can bump in your pocket without destroying the screen and hence the entire phone. If you can afford it and want a tough phone, BUY THIS ONE!

  • i forgot the security code of my phone.could anyone help me to find out the default securiy code. Its very argent because there is so many personal datas in my phone,so i want to keep it safely. Pls help me :/

  • internet & data plan will "not" work in america, you will "not" be able send or receive picture texts messages! the camera flash isnt as bright as you expect either, but everything else seems to work really good

  • Can i use what app on this phone???

  • turn blue tooth off myine last bout 4 days but the ribbon cable for the slide part keeps breaking!

  • I have owned this phone for about a month now. It's a brand new phone, but how come the battery drains so quickly even when I don't use it at all? I own 2 phones, and 1 day, after I fully charged the W995, I turned it off and I didn't use it for 1 day. So after 24 hours I tried to turn on my phone, but it won't turn on because the battery had been drained even when it's turned off! And when the phone is in standby mode, it only last 24 hours WITHOUT ANY USE. The charging time is 4 hours too, whether the phone is on or off. My phone is only in 2G mode too. Is this normal for the W995? I bought my phone on Ebay if ever some people who are having the same experience are wondering where I bought my phone.

  • What about sound quality n loudness of inbuilt loudspeaker? N if compared to Nokia 5800 xm?

  • Because there is no anti hand shake function. This is the only down side of this phone everything else superb. Masterpiece. If only this one would have the software of SE C905 it would be the ultimate phone.

  • @bobby2016 You should buy this phone...great for backup mobile...has two loudspeker...and also good quality camera..the battery is also good...buy this

  • This is the gagdet u can dream about,best phone u can think of-battery is ok

  • Nice phone generally, but ClearBass doesn't work well with some genres of music, practically removing the bass instead of boosting it. Also, it doesn't allow folder browsing in the media player, which is infuriating. Shame.

  • it s gud mbl. Bt camera quality nt fine..why?

  • It's an awesome phone. Good gaming performance, great music quality, cool motion-sensor, good internet speed, youtube streaming, high quality camera.

  • i like this mobile very much this option are very good

  • Awful camera, awful phone by sony ericsson standards. Also high priced.

  • Had this for about 2 years. Love it. Took great pictures and the external speakers were some of the loudest I have heard on a cell while still sounding good. Attached to some Sony Bluetooth headphones this was also my primary music player with a 16gb card. GPS was a nice feature and I actually used it a few times when I was driving in a different city and was lost. The biggest con for this phone is the Sony Fastport charger connection. A Sony only charger so don�t lose your charger or replacing it will be a pain. Sadly I lost my W995 and had to replace it or I still might be using it.

  • Im wana buy a phone wth excellent camera, which 1 should I go for?. Cuz ryt nw I using hazel and im nt happy wth d camera

  • Please help, I have had my w995 for 4 years now and suddenly I have a problem. The screen distords, the buttons stuck and I cant use the phone at all, not even receive a phone call. How can I fix this problem? It also switches off by itself.

  • Hi, I think my W995 has a virus. The screen started to distord and know I cant use my phone at all to phone or sms or do anything. The buttons doenst even work. Is there anybody that has some advice for me please? I had this phone for 4 years and no problems.

  • I purchased my original W995 in Nov. 2009. Absolutely loved it, recently lost, replaced with an Xperia U. After a month, selling Xperia U and buying W995 from eBay (its still available). Why? Because this phone operates via firmware, whereas new Smartphones are software. I fucking WAIT for everything on my dual core Xperia U, whereas these older phones do what they are supposed to do FAST and RELIABLY. I will lose many Smart functions, like touch screen and stuff but for the three functions i want: phone, camera and music, can't beat. Dedicated walkman buttons are SO appreciated. Push and music plays... ALSO... listening to music, get call, music pauses, when call over, music resumes, this does NOT happen with my Xperia U. Push camera button, music stops, take picture, close camera, music resumes. This does NOT happen with Xperia U. Speakers on W995 are stereo and LOUD, this is NOT the case with Xperia U. I feel Sony abandoned their brilliant years of innovation with their previous user interface, for the stupid useless, buggy Android.

  • I had sony ericsson w995 for one year and half (before it's stolen) and it's the ever best phone i had, now i'm looking for buy the same phone.

  • Have used it for abt 4 yrs .I have dropped it on hard surfaces more than 10 times (unintentionally) Never gave me any prob. Button colors have fade out.ear bud is dying but I am totally happy I purchased it.I have used it for maximum. Unless some OS and few other improvements these days I would have bought the same phone again. Honestly I haven't seen better music quality on recently bought latest phones of my friends.Not even SE. That's disappointing.

  • i wan the w995 wants puk pin

  • where can i find sony ericsson w995 in johor bahru , malaysia ??? please .. i really wanna buy this se w995 .

  • This is a brilliant phone for people who only really want a phone for calls, texting and pictures. It is so easy to use and if you don't want a touchscreen phone like myself, then I thoroughly recommend this one. I have now had my phone for 4 years and it stills works perfectly well. It takes photos that are just as good as a camera. It does have several other features if you want to use them and it is also a very good walkman to.

  • its suport skype but not all version. I am ustng this phone ower 2 years with skype but it not i dont have found any app with video chat for now. The phone is good for his time and has app old 2 years, no body will make some new app wor A200 platfotm they make for android. I just love mu w 995

  • So my cousins have iphones and i am on the att network with them as well. iphones have facetime that can be used throughout the world when they have a good wifi connection and we all travel a lot so this is very important to keep in touch. does this sony ericsson model have any sort of wifi run app such as facetime so i can connect with them with the videocall camera? can i get skype for it? other possibilities? i just don't wanna pay att videocall fees. thanks.

  • My w995 worked ok-ish! When it worked it worked well! The paint comes off too easily which makes it look cheap! With a few apps and games installed it slows the phone down - good job I didnt completely fill 8gb memory card! I could get just as good pics from k770i cybershot which was only 3.2mp cam! W995 definitely NOT quality that 8mp cam should be! The lights wouldnt go out once - both walkman and normal lights were stuck on for 3hours even with the power off! W910i had similar problems although w995 not as bad! Speakers were superb on mine no problem ever! Bass was clear but not as loud in the headphones as w910i or k770i! Buttons was good no probs! Lot better than other se models! One phone I want is the S003 as it has 12mp cam, 1ghz processor and incredible screen! Only prob is japan only but its a w995 thrasher! Look at the specs of it!

  • still Have it, still, use it, still love it.

  • nope, not as best as others (that are using rhythmic LED light). But they also bores me cause i'm bored with SAME ORANGE LED colour.. Wake up sony, try to design other stylish LED design (with different colour of course) yet heighten the quality... I'm just using it for 4 months, but i gotten hotter at back battery case, probably the battery problem i guess.. The ribbon also easy to tear up, making the screen dark (common slide handphone problem) ! Lame u.. Others go check at my other comments 'the wonderer'.. Same problem, same issue. I don't want to trust sony anymore...

  • i used for a few months and it started giving problems with the network.

  • no whatspp thats for sure,i tried different websites but the app never runs it says app error

  • no whatspp thats for sure,i tried different websites but the app never runs it says app error

  • is the best walkman phone

  • forgot to mention that, although this phone was in walkman category, it didn't have a rhytmic LED light. Thats really awful, because those are the uniqueness of walkman series. I hope in a future, SONY will gain more ideas that will change the people mentality (showing that they have low quality, too many weakness) for their future products after broke up with 'Ericsson'.. Anyone with me ?

  • i had using this phone almost 1 1/2 year. First of all, this phone is amazing. Lots of features and stylish (i got a red version). But after i used it for 4 months, it have speaker problem. The bottom speaker didn't produce any sound, that seems really annoying ! I didn't drop it earlier (before this problem), so it didn't make any sense. But after 2-3 weeks, it soon became normal as before (i didn't go to repair it anyhow). It also goes into blackout sometimes (suddenly restarted). But, the good things is, this phones is really can withstand many drop fall for about 2-3 feets including a fall onto a coarse asphalt road (yes, the body is full with scar afterward). Now 3 of my keypad buttons comes off, leaving a naked white buttons (still can use them though). Oh, how sad... :(

  • Can it whatsapp?

  • dont know

  • its the great fone h have that fone for more than 15 moths the perfomence is very good and able to keep the clear capturing and for listning music love it that is amazing phone

  • it's very easy 4 using.and im happy to using this phone.

  • i used it for almost 3 years and i can say that it's awesome phone. I never had problems with it

  • i wish i knew about it before i bought the sony experia x1...this phone is a must have people go for it..this phone ke bosso...........copy that

  • very nice phone great camera !

  • Good phone. I have it for more than a year, never freezed or restarted, not once!

  • The walkman live is louder with its Xloud feature but that is also the downfall of it since the sound starts to distort or crackle when the volume is too high. Overall, w995 is still a better phone be it on earphones (with its clear audio tech.) or its loudspeaker.

  • :-Dcouldnt have said it better myself!

  • about the wi-fi internet

  • It has got games although nothing like as good as android. Got wifi 3g 8.1 mp camera and good sound with stereo speakers. Its a very handy compact phone and im using it as a spare to my live walkman. I suggest before you comment on w995 you brush up on your phone knowledge as you can download applications such as the spirit level app and various others! This is not a smartphone but you can get barcode reader for it and you can multitask. Only gripe i have is that if you download a lot of apps or games it slows the phone down when you turn it on!

  • it is most simple phone, it has nothing more than phone and cam, no applications no games and very poor browsing. i am not recomend it

  • Try the wt19i live walkman! I thought w995 was loud with its stereo speakers but wt19i is even louder! Only thing though is it has 5mp camera! Anyone whos got a w995 I suggest you try the wt19i - you wont be disappointed!

  • Get a 3 sim card because o2 and orange wont play unless use wifi!

  • I bought this phone twice.First my friend bought from me and I just bought this once again. I love this phone. This is the complete phone ever i have been use. Look Style, Simple to make phone call or bu answer the phone just slide it. Good offer for camera resolution 8.1 mega pixel. Java support. and style on listen to music. The alarm also very good and never get over slept if this phone beside.

  • I've just been using this phone for three days and I love it. I was looking for a non-touch music phone. So, after a lot of thinking I bought it. The phone has all the good features of a really good music phone. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: 1. Very good music quality. I'm using a Nokia 3.5mm earphone and it works great even the mic. 2. Very good battery life. I listened to music all day and the battery had only depleted to 55% !!! 3. Camera is not one of the best feature of this phone but it is not disappointing. Especially flash is very good; performance is close to xenon flash :) 4. Telephony and messaging is also good. For some reason the network bar remains mostly low but reception is never bad. I think it is a software glitch. 5. Internet browsing is really good and fast considering a non-touch phone. Wi-fi works just fine. 6. The phone does not lag even with a full memory card. Trust me, I use a 8gb and already 7gb is full. Cons: 1. Charger port is very wobbly. I have to struggle each night to get the phone charging. Seriously considering buying a battery charger with an extra battery. 2. Music is very good but not all the earphones works. My HTC headphones creates a buzzing sound with W995 but Nokia headphone works just fine. I do not use the SE earphone that came with the box because it uses the fast port and as I said the port is wobbly. 3. Uses M2 memory card. I had quite a hard time finding one and it cost me almost 3 times more than a MicroSD. Despite the cons the overall performance of this phone is really good. It has a wholesome feel to it and I have a feeling I'm gonna use it for a long time.

  • I had the device for almost 2 years and it is one of my most durable phone.

  • Also had this phone for 18 months and it's been great. Nice solid quality feel in the hand. Very good camera, a little slow on 3G internet compared to the new smart phones, but makes a great modem for my laptop. Obviously for music it is excellent. But I like it best for its main use for me as a phone.

  • all in 1!xcellent...4 me!

  • I have this phone at 1 year and a half. And i just have to say. it's very good. Only the gps i can't renew the licence. :(

  • This phone is very good. I am using for the last one and half years... Performance is very very good.......sony ericsson ... Picture quality excellent.

  • this phone is legendary, everythong about it is top class...moreso the features, WOW the battery life.

  • so watts d price in dollars and naira> rilly wanna order one of these aight.

  • wow superb phone! i love this

  • i have been using it since 2009 and i am so attached to it, it has even blind folded me in a way that i don`t find any other phone as attractive as it is, the pictures,sound, memory & features are doing it for me, so in a scale of 100% i definetly give it 120%

  • has been using this for more that 2 yrs & i am loving it...battery back too good...sound clarity awesome...& the phone does not hang....smooth & too good

  • I am falling in love with this phone

  • Camera superb.

  • Which one has better loudspeaker volume - w995 or live wiyh walkman?

  • 1.How is its camera? Some 1 wrote that its camera is equal to 2 mega pixel camera.is it true? 2.Can it stream you tube video nicely? I have K850i and its video streaming is very bad.

  • this phone is so good.this phones specificationes are good.sound quality are aewsome.camera so good.

  • After all it's a Walkman phone.... I only watch out for it's audio quality and that is awesome. Believe me... Even better than all Walkman phones that literally existed.

  • Friends i posted equalizer settings a little while ago these EQ settings are only for hpm 77 type headphones not for hpm 64 types. SOLID BASS : 3 -2 -2 1 2 3

  • Yes u r right dude this phone really blows off the head with its BASS oops Clear BASS. Really! distortion free dyanamic BASS. No phone can beat the sound quality of this phone.Simply world leader in music. ... forget abt ipod(any generation),forget abt xpress music....this phone beats everything. EQUALIZER settings:- Rocking high output : 2 -1 0 1 2 2 or 2 -1 -1 1 1 2 Pleasent music: 1 -1 0 0 1 1 Auditorium like sound : 3 -2 -1 1 2 2

  • Anyone knows how to lock the keypad with passcode on this phone?

  • HI ! brother hw can a phone which has wifi connect to the computer which also has wifi , how is it possible , is it works like a bluetooth also ..

  • This is an awesome phone. The best equipped walkman phone ever. It has every thing you need 3G, WIFI, GPS, Great multitasking like smartphones. You can more than 15-20 applications at a time without a hitch. It also have WLAN so can connect it to computer as a LAN device and browse fast internet even on 2G. No device can beat W995 in music clarity and quality. Sadly i have to sell it to purchase Xperia play. I want to keep it but can't afford two high priced phones. You can purchase it from me.

  • btw, ebuddy does work on w995 , you got that wrong now.

  • I have lost mine and I am looking for it in Kolkata. Can't find it as dealers say it's production has been stopped. I want to buy it and nothing else!!! Any help? Is it available in anywhere else in India? Any old stock will do.

  • I love this phone got one for my birthday few months back best pressie, it takes awesome pics the video is awesome and the music rocks. The GPS is great very easy to use and very accurate. Its great to text with and call clarity is great. One thing that would have been nice is a scratch resistant display. Awesome phone.

  • If you are looking for entertainment(specially music), this is the phone. Phenomenal!!! LOVE IT.

  • can u please name the place or showroom ( in mumbai ) from where u r have bought this mobile. thank you...

  • but buying a bigger m2 is not the best way to solve the problem. after few months it will get the same. somewhere in my country forums i have found that one guy lives with this problem, he just restarts it each day. maybe reinstalling soft is the last thing which i could do,but i dont believe that it will work very well. btw there's only 91mb left from 118mb's.is it normal? guys,i dont believe that noone have faced with this problem,please share your experience :)

  • Restore the phone or for better way you need to upgrade a bigger micro SD memory..

  • Yeah, it can play youtube video

  • why are my picture sepa

  • does anyone know why everyday phones free memory is getting smaller and smaller and when i restart it gets back to the first stage like nothing had happened

  • i have now my SE W995 but i am really disappointed because i grab the one that china made.. i have my K800 later but it down after 3years also because of my negligence so that i want to have a new model once again, i am so excited when i see the W995 series so i grab it on the store then when i'm at home i check it.. its shit!! chinapone... if you want to satisfy your money dont act like me... check first everything, my unit is non-refundable non-exchange just warranty only.. i prepare for real W995 again but this time i take assurance... hope this help us... More power to the seller at kota raya kuala lumpur.. you bet me... ilove SE

  • how much for this fone in indian rupees. and is it still vailable as on 2nd sept' 11? any onther Se fone in this range?

  • 4 me i lv this phone cause its more ossome and u can,t get to anyone,so to be honest i enjoy w995 to the fullest,the picture of its pefect so people dont be afraid to buy that phone go u will enjoyed.

  • i like this phone, is perfect for me

  • My equalizer setting is full clear bass. behind setting is 0 1 -1 -1 1.

  • Camera quality not worst but not nice. because i take picture with the same scene by using N95(5MP), K810(3.2MP), 5800XM(3.2MP) and this W995(8.1MP) , after that i put them in computer n zoom out, the quality of W955 camera is lower than N95 and K810. Its quality is actually not match to 8MP. Fake sell point. Other performance is impressive.

  • i am using this phone since 9 month display is nice speaker sound is awsome every thing is awsome but there is one problem with every sony mobile the problem is its nevigation key colour is fading after 9 month use i am soo dissapointed sony :(

  • yes it has and i am using it well

  • does w995 has flash support

  • @SE lover hi der, gud day.. ders a confusion here, the camera quality is great, i mean awwwwsome.. no question bout dat, the problem is fon screen..its not bez screen dats why the pictures taken look suck, actually its not.. if u trnfer the pics to computer, u'll see da differ.. the camera is great it juz the screen dat couldnt match the quality of camera.. sorry 4 my english..cheers,

  • I am also going to buy this mobile back,,besides how good it is even battery the styling is 10/10 and all these new boring full touchscreens can go away.S/E need to bring back walkman but i like this style of fone with buttons and real d-pad.. I hate the new touchscreen fones i pray s/e bring out a powerfull device but with w995 styling..

  • im confused over the w995 and the c905. i want to experience clear, studio recorded-like audio and a bass as deep as the sea. at the same time i would like my phone to deliver sharp photos without overexposure under the sun or either getting my photos too washed out when its dark. help me decide over the C905 or the W995!!! this 2 phones are so GOOD. oh and btw im ownin a w995 now.

  • Thanks a lot. I had some confusion over it. Now I am clear. Definitely I will buy this mobile back. I love this mobile more then any other...

  • is it true about the phone????is it has superb sound and volume and can play utube video???plizzz reply

  • If you prefer Music, there's no better model than this one!! Nte is also good but W995 is the ultimate in Music. Never thik twice because let alone Non-SE phones, even SE Walkman phones can come close to it. It's simply superb and awesome! We're having a whole group of music lovers as proud owners of W995.

  • Btw I love this phone so much after I sell my best W980 due to software problem. But its camera quality suck. A bit unbearable to its 8MP. lose to my cybershot and N95 too much.

  • I using 2 phones now, 5800XM and W995, i change my phone every half year, but i must have a walkman phone because i tried other sony ericsson products and music quality not good as walkman. if u love music, walkman (especially clear audio one) is irreplacable. But if want play software u beter extra buy another OS phone.

  • I used this mobile for more than one year and I missed it before 20 days. I had a little confusion to buy this mobile back or to buy Xperia mini pro. My first choice is music. Then only internet and other things. So please someone tell me which one is best to buy. Thanks in advance.....

  • I jz bought a 2nd hand W995 na di absolutely LOVE IT. I jz writing a review about dis phne and my opinion is as follows. The display is pretty bright and delivers sharp, vivid pictures to my eyes. Well of course u cant compare it to the iPhone4's retina display or Samsung's Super Amoled. But for a mid-range phne, dis display is like no other. Next up we come to the music. SERIOUSLY, its better than an MP3/4 player. Experience music like u're in a concert or watch movies like in a cinema. Dis monster delivers GREAT sound through any headphones if u have one. =) Oh and not forgetting about the camera, i wonder what SE put in the lenses of the W995 but pictures produced are of a digital camera quality ones. The build is also quite sturdy for its size as i dropped it several times on concrete floors and its still working. And the previous owner did me a favour by dropping it really hard.. and its still working. =) so i'd say GET THIS PHONE~~!

  • Hey, I just bought a silver one, And i love it !

  • I have had the W995 for one week, buying it in Kuala Lumpur for 580 Malaysian $ = 193 USD (probably could have haggled a better price). I am very pleased with the performance of it, my first smartphone. The 8mp camera takes very good pics, better than my old SE k800i. Low light pics are quite acceptable. With the on-board photo software you can make many of the usual changes (contrast, etc) but also 'frills' such as frams and the addition of text and clip art. You will not get high quality as from a digital camera, but even with my old 3mp SE K800i I printed pics up to 5x7 with nice results. It has a solid well-built feel. The battery lasts longer than most smart phones - I suppose 3-4 days with light use, however if you stay on the internet all the time or do other energy-draining tasks then with any phone you are going to deplete the battery in a day or less. I spent several hours comparing specs and user comments and decided it was a choice between another Sony-Ericsson or an Android, but all comments about (low to mid-priced) Androids were that the battery lasted a day at most and sometimes only a few hours. The LG, Samsung and HTC Androids I looked at were also physically larger than the W995 and were approx twice as expensive. The volume from the speakers, and ring/text tones is excellent. I can watch Youtube videos and have to turn the sound down from maximum (although in a noisy Starbucks I had to hold it to my ear as I did not have the headphones). I had considered getting a SE 'Hazel' but that had low volume and problems with signal strength (phone calls). Video quality is very good, better than I expected from WQVGA, probably due to the impressive 30 fps. Even on our 42 inch LCD TV the video looks good (although of course not 1080p HD quality), and is far far better than the pathetic video on my old K800i. Internet: Good for Facebook, GMail and News / Weather / Sports / Blogs. You can also enter any URL, but not all web pages have a mobile phone format. AFAIK it does not do Skype (correct me if I am wrong). However if you really want good internet usage then spend more $$ and get a larger screen Android and put up with a shorter battery time. In conclusion, I think the W995 is good for the price and small size. My next smartphone will probably be a larger screen Android - when their batteries last longer and when I figure how to cope with carrying around a larger size phone. Final comment: You will see a few very critical comments saying this phone is rubbish. If you read the comments for ANY phone you will find someone who hates it, or got a faulty phone with problems, or caused the problems through mis-use. There ARE better phones than the W995, but you will have to pay more and cope with other shortcomings. No phone is perfect; all will have something that someone will not like. Read *all* comments of all phones that you are considering before you make a decision.

  • aweeeeeeee!! absolutly true!!

  • reset the phone back to default settings and you should be able to

  • must only be u thats experiencing such issues..shame..u dont seem like very nice character, neither do u speak with intellegence..ur comment doesnt make the phone look bad u look impractical and not the phone..ofcorse ebuddy wont work..ITS NOT A RIM OR BLACKBERRY DEVICE...theres apps that works perfectly and apps that just wont, so unless u know excactly what will work or not by doing ur homework and not just trying everything then getting frustrated and "impractical" rather keep ur comments to urself....as the w995 i had for a year and a half worked absolutly awesome, no issues with any feature or apps...:)

  • i had this phone for about a year and a half and absolutley loved it.The 8Gigs memory card was definetley in favour as well as the 8Megapixel camera,took very smart pictures.The volume on the phone was at the time the loudest than what i have heard on any other mobile of that time and also the video calling feature was fantastic.I dont think that if there was not blackberry right now that i wouldv gotten another mobile,as the w995 did all for me at the time. The problem about some mobile phones is that they look better than what they work,thats why its imperrative that you view all specs of any mobile that you are interested in order to make sure that you not only purchasing the best mobile , but the best mobile for you. :)

  • w995 its ok i am using it for last 2yrs. not a supportive phone for this era................

  • I have a w995 for about a year now. I droped it quite alot and its working finr other than the part whe it lags n restarts. The phones great :)

  • Mobile Applications

  • how to use wi-fi ?

  • ur mobile's sliding chip has gone change the sliding chip as per so that u will not get any problem........

  • I've had this phone for 2 years now, it is rubbish, worst software I have ever had to deal with, no major apps run on it (skype, any flash based apps not even fring) only opera and ebuddy, every 1/5 times I turn off Wi-Fi the phone hangs for about 2 minutes for an unexplained reason, you can't play youtube videos with Wi-Fi connection for some reason, and the notifications on this phone are horrid they are in full screen and take forever to go away and always trivial, the camera quality is equivalent to that of a 5 Megapixel Nokia phone, don't get fooled by the 8.1 it's rubbish, and I can't wait till I can get rid of this piece of inpractical junk.. The only good thing about this phone is that you can drop it 20 times a day and it wouldn't get a scratch great material, but that isn't saying much now is it ?

  • Are you for real? You cant start a update and unplug 1/2 way through or the phone will crash and is worth nothing

  • Really? You sure that? But don't they warn, not to un-plug while updating the phone? Isn't it harmful? Have you done it before? Sorry for asking too many questions. But I really do want to know that. Thank you! ^_^

  • My heart...only disadvantage is no touch...SE's best invention now till as far as i know...

  • you can't...but their is a way ...i founded myself ! for the new software you update the phone ... well ...for the old sistem software you update again ..but in half of update you pull out the cable from phone ... and you'll have the old sistem ...i tried anything to have the old software back ...and hardly founded !

  • Hey guys, is it true that I can't put the same old OS version when once I have installed a newer version? One of my friends told me. Can anybody explain me?

  • Best phone I ever had . I've been using my phone for almost 8 months . It does not give me any problem . WiFi is very fast . Great and best quality sound system, it's clear and loud . Very beautiful and convenient. But the downside is the camera . Not too good as the Aino . But it's OK when the brightness is good !! i'm still satisfied with it =D I love W995 !!!

  • Hi there. I've been using mine for 2 years now, time in which i've opened its slider 11789 times and it's still perfect, same as when I bought it.

  • I still cannot find a brand new of this phone here in the Philippines... Can anyone help me... thanks

  • Don't get this phone. I'm 2 months' before the end of a 2 year contract, have spent the last 6 months not able to charge the phone properly. I'm apparently under warranty as I'm under contract. They fixed the power charging - no usb/ audio functions working. As it's the second time it's in to be fixed, they're offering me a replacement but a phone which has the same (depreciated value) as the W995. So I had it fully working for about a year (and to be honest the thing was really slow the whole time). Have a look on ebay and see how many faulty w995s are on sale.... This phone is just not worth the hassle.

  • Black is nice but red is sexy and looks better

  • hey guys, can anyone tell me if the pink color for this unit is still available?? When i was in Hong kong last summer i saw the pink color of this phone and i was wondering if it is available in the philippines?? thnx

  • I like dis phn.bt I can't buy it now.how long will it be available...

  • may i who can tell me, how to upgrade this phone. this phone can watch pdf (adobe)file. watch photo very hang up..

  • One of the best phones i have ever used... i had W980 previously... all the faults and all the negatives in the W980 were fulfilled in this model. Love it a lot. volume is great.. light is awesome. camera quality is good and good for long hours talk. i hate touchscreen mobiles. so i find this mobile the best phone... fast in messaging and wi-fi....!! I would suggest this phone for one who wishes to have the best phone without a touch screen....!!

  • I have been using this phone for about 17 months & talked about 1500 hours with it, It just hanged once and I was needed to be flashed. It is still in a very good condition, and I recommend it to people who want to use phone call while driving cars and also people who want to talk long time, it's very easy to work with it. And you can make very useful short cuts. Just during phone calls if someone comes on your call waiting, the voice of call waiting calling, will be heard on the other line, so if you have two girl friends that will be a pity !

  • anybody knows how to configure SIP settings in w995?.kindly reply

  • Had this phone over a year now, very good phone all round. Only little things that bother me are, the volume of music through the headphones could be louder, and the camera takes a bit of getting used to, I find the auto options not very good, best to manually setup your picture type, and on the 8 mega-pixel setting can be a bit slow at times. Was worried about the camera lens getting scratched when I bought this phone as it has no cover, but no scratches so far.

  • I love my W995. It does everything I want without that touch screen nonsense. I like to 'feel' the phone & that's exactly what the phone supplies.

  • I think it is almost impossible for those applications to be working on this phone. They need air pressure and heat sensors to be working properly. I remember the old samsung phones had a secret code so it can show you temperature's degree, but actually it just measured the battery's heat, not the outside temperature.

  • Plz tell me how to switch on the front camera

  • You probably should get your eyes tested!

  • you must have no taste to say that. o_O its by far one of the best looking feature phones.

  • this must be the ugliest phone i have ever seen~!

  • thnx,all ur info helped me a lot.. :)

  • plz anyone tell me how to switch on the front camera???? plzzzz

  • Yes, it's still fine - 20% - or you can use the capacity until it drains to its critical capacity, some say it is 5% left when it reached its critical capacity. If you let the battery thru its critical capacity, it needs about half an hour after you plug the charger to start charging. PS. You also asked about the latest firmware, I think it is R1HA035 if I remember correct, there was the newer one R1HA036, but later SE has removed it from their site. Sorry if this info might be incorrect or already outdated.

  • *correction= 20%

  • i think i'm gonna charge the phone when it reaches 50%-20&,is it good..??another thing,do u think i must use the phone till the battery is empty after fully charge or not..??is it safe..?

  • Yes, for initial charge purpose only, after that is up to you when you decide to charge the battery, coz after a proper initial charge the battery life should be much longer and you can get the benefit of it (use the phone longer until the battery goes empty).

  • so,wht do u mean is charge the phone every time it reaches 50%..??

  • ONE WEEK of initial charging would be enough to maximise the battery life. 50% to start recharging means @ medium usage eg 30 min call, 30 min internet, 1 hour gaming etc etc.. it takes a day to drain the battery 50%. Less is okay, but I said 50% so you remember to charge it frequently 3G can make video call, video streaming...

  • and 1 more thing,that's it..??the difference between 3G and GSM..??only call quality n internet,data transfer speeds..??is there anything that the 3G network have that the GSM network does'nt have..??sorry if i ask too much..??please reply,thnks in advance.. :)

  • so anonymous, i must charge the phone when its 50% forever or only few weeks after bought the phone..??

  • *correction: (first 3-7 days)

  • Charge the battery frequently in the first few days or a week after buying the phone. This is useful to calibrate the battery so it can use the maximum capacity to the fullest. Lets say in this period of initial charging (first 3-7 weeks), do charging when the battery capacity is 50% left, stop charging when the battery is 100% full. No need to turn off the phone while charging, but I recommend to restart the phone every day. Sony Ericsson phones use both GSM and 3G networks when you select GSM/3G networks. Between GSM and 3G, regarding voice call quality 3G is better because it supports AMR-WB technology aka HD Voice. Only two SE phones support this technology - Elm and Hazel. And overall 3G is faster in data transfering compare with GPRS/EDGE

  • and 1 more thing anonymous,if i disable 3g it uses GSM right..??if i turn on 3g it uses both 3g and GSM or only 3g..??another thing is,which is better..?? 3G or GSM..??or both 3G and GSM..??

  • hey anonymous,u say that charge the the phone frequently,so how frequent..??every day..??N how many hours i must charge..??

  • Maximising battery performance ~Charge your phone often. The battery lasts longer if you charge it frequently. ~If you are in an area with no coverage, your phone repeatedly scans for available networks. This consumes power. If you cannot move to an area with better coverage, turn off your phone temporarily. ~Turn off 3G, Bluetooth� wireless technology, any active Wi-Fi� connection, and GPS when you do not need these functions. ~Do not cover the phone antenna when you are engaged in a call. Go to to learn more about how to maximise the battery performance. SE Answers Team

  • btw, in indonesia, it was discontinued, hell

  • hey ajmal,if the Update Service does w995 then what's this..?? it can update through PC suite,here's the proof ,http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/phones/­detailed/updateyourphonesoftwarewithpcsuite/w995­?cc=gb&lc=en please reply ASAP !!!

  • Update Service does support W995. Also, i do not think any sofwtware update has been released yet.

  • Yes you may, no probs...

  • Maybe you should try with even smaller videos. The features provided in the mobile phones are very limited and they are just for name sake i think. If you want to update any 5 or 6 minute videos, you better try from the PC itself.

  • I also get the same error message maybe once in a day. It gets solved either by turning off and on the router or the phone. That's all....

  • It does take stable pictures except that you can't secretly take photos of your friends when they are moving around as they will be blurred most of the time. And yeah, the keypads are pretty comfortable to type in.

  • hello anonymous,please reply this my previous qeustion and this,how to check if new software is available in sony ericsson website..??PLEASE 3x REPLY ASAP !!!

  • hai wayne n anonymous,i was told that Update Service application does not support Sony ericsson W995,is this true..??so,where must i update my w995 software if a new software is available..??,i checked through the SE official website,it says that to update software in w995 is through PC SUITE,is this true..??if it's true,then how to update software through the PC suite in my w995..??please reply ASAP . thnx in advance :)

  • can i put my older se headphone to the fast port like normal se phone?

  • Help! Is there anyone having problems with the WIFI connection?sometimes it connects with no problem but most times it gives me the error report connection error please contact your internet provider! there is nothing wrong with my router or internet connection..... is it a problem with the phone?

  • HELP me please,i want to send videos/picture to a website like Facebook n Myspace,but after i sent it,then i go to to the website(FACEBOOK n MYSPACE)through PC and logged in,then there's no picture or video that i just sent through the w995..n 1 more thing,evry time i sent videos to a website it says video is too long but the video duration is only 4-6 minutes..??? REPLY PLEASE ASAP !! thnx in advance :)

  • For music I prefer W995, for movies Hazel is better... All other features are almost the same...

  • hey deborah,yes u are right..this phones rocks right..??i'm glad u had it,i bought it in red .. (^^)

  • I have had this W995 for over a year now. I am very satisfied with it's performance overall. I have had several SE phones over the years but I must say this has to be one of my favourites! The music on this mobile is exceptional when played through portable speakers or listened via your headphones. It takes upto a massive 16GB memory card. To give you an example of how much data, photo's and music etc, I currently have an 8GB card and have 1307 music tracks, 71 short video clips, 11 games, and 737 photo's stored on it and it's still not quite full. I am going to buy a 16GB card though so that I can download more music and photo's later. It has an 8MP camera but I've found that most SE Walkman phones lack in this department and picture quality isn't as good as others BUT it's not bad either! I wanted a good all rounder and to me this is. The screen size is decent and texting is easy. I'd happily recommend this phone. I bought mine sim free when it first came out so it was expensive but I'm sure you can get a great deal on this phone at the moment. Treat yourself for Christmas!

  • hey cas try to find it in malls coz i saw a lot of w995

  • sorry to say this, but that 'abu' maybe right. i had the w810i phone with very good 2MP camera. now im having w995 with 8MP camara. but im not much happy with the camara. because not much different in the picture quality camparing to my w810i 2MP camara. and this 8MP camara is small than k850i 5MP camara. and this 8MP camara is far back from k850i 5MP camara. this 8MP camara size is same as w810i camara size. small. it is just like im having my old w810i 2MP camara back.... -bad english- -this may be a personal experiance or my eyes may have a problem or my feelings may have problems. so plese ignore above info if you willing to buy w995-

  • For pictures, I think Nokia and Samsung are better. Sony Ericsson camera lacks quality nowadays. This is a music phone and in that arena, this is the king.

  • hi guys, jus want to know how the camera is ? does it take stable pic (not blurred) ? and the keypads ..are they comfortable enough to text message ? and guys its been more than three times that i have asked the same question but nobody replied to my query...pls those who own it give me advice on my questions...and one more thing...most of the keys are of silver color...will they change color with time ? bcz most of the cellphones havng silver colored keys start losing their color bcz of the sweat/water we have on our hands...pls pls pls help me with my queries ..i got to buy this fone :) pls help... thnx

  • 8.1 MP = 3264*2448

  • hey abu,it's a phone with a camera function not a camera with a phone function,if u want a great quality pictures use a real camera instead like the DSLR etc..for me the w995 takes quite a good pictures(but at night,it's quite poor but i use a real camera if i wnt to take pictures at night not a phone camera) if you set the camera settings depending on the situation.. :)

  • can you help? where can i buy w995 in baguio city. second hand please

  • every 3 months

  • very very very bad camera.....8.1MP = 2MP..

  • Don't worry, you made your point from the first time. Anyway, I have decided not to install a2uploader. I'm not that desperate to have flash menus. Cheers from Romania!

  • I'm here again, asking anyone's help, I want to know where can I purchase this W995 here in the Philippines. PLEASE.....Thanks

  • i cant use the sense me,bcoz i loose the mood songs, how can i bring it back, pls help me

  • no need to thank me. ur welcome. Pleasure to help. But im not sure wether u understood my reply. In that my reply, 'google' means 'search in the internt'. ('google a2uploader' means 'type a2uploader in the google serch and serch') here, i did it my self, this address might help. It says how to install a2uploader. forums.se-nse.net/topic/39748-tutorial-flashing-­a2-phones-with-a2uploader/ but think twice or more. i cannot get the responsibilty of installing a2uploader. TakeCare.

  • Great phone good looks good music quality I guest good allrounder

  • It is a great phone good looks good allround

  • hello,i'm using w995 and can anyone advice me when to update the software..??i used it for 3 n a half weeks now,when to update the software..??every 1 month..?? every 2 month..??every 3 month..?? PLEASE REPLY ASAP !!! :)

  • Thanks for replying!

  • to use flash menus, u need a thing called 'a2uploader'. It is a thing called 'firmware' or something. installing it is a riskey thing if you dont know how to install it correctly. I didnt install it becouse im affraid. So im not having flash menus either. For more info, google 'a2uploader'. not only flash menus, u can also install new aplications after you installed the a2uploader. For example: lighteffect. (ur phone side buttons will glow in orange when incoming a call or sms). If u install a2uploader, google applications for a2uploader. Serch w995 lighteffect at youtube to see glowing orange buttons when incoming a call. -my english is poor-

  • Hai dreamer, yet again i found out a kid who want to have W995,......buy at least one then give your commends.... I have it since Feb 2oo9... what shall i say....an excellent walkman system for those who love music....i really thank GSM Arena for assisting me choose this baby....thanks all.

  • If its really a crap,then y u bought two?????

  • i want it to take pictures...

  • i have a sony ericson w995 it is the worst fne that i have ever had i have had 2 in the last 18mths and thay keep falling apart total crap please DONT get one

  • Lol....k700i juz 0.3 mp dude...

  • What is it that you're really looking for in this phone. This phone is not good to play full length movies and camera not excellent but not bad. In all other aspects, this is the best phone. Very stable software. I've never had to restart this phone in the past one month I think. Also, it does whatever sony ericsson says this phone is capable of. Go for it if you don't want to watch full length movies.

  • Please any body tell me about how i can use skype on W995. and sorry for poor english

  • please, someone tell me if this mobile is good..because as I read here, it doesn't good as I thought...it's important... PLEASE!! THANKS :P

  • thnx 4 ur rply basheer...actualy i dnt hav w995,,,wz jst planing to! nd i need a video centric fone,,,tht u mite guess 4m a sort of question i asked. nw i wont go for w995... thnx a million!!!

  • the camera is not as good as other sony ericssons, eg k700i with just 3.2 mgapixel

  • what an amazing tecnology!i really like this!! Thank you-sony ericsson -deepak.j

  • It does not play full length movies properly. Maybe it's a problem with just my phone. I've asked about this elsewhere on this forum and no reply yet. But for 5 mins or 10mins videos it's ok, it's play fine. Full length movies sometimes lose sound or the playback becomes fast and slow randomly. Not at all advisable. So what I do is, I split the movies to 10 minute files and play them. That's what I do now. Somebody please check on your w995 and tell me if you also face the same problem....

  • Hi dudes. Please reply: how can I make use of the flash themes that I download? I mean when I set a flash theme to my phone, the menu isn't flash, just the same sony-ericsson icons. The theme background is there but no flashy menu. Please help!

  • and 1 more thing anonymous,did u mean that the FB application can be use only through WIFI ??? (OPEN CONNECTION) ,please reply ASAP !! :)

  • hey anonymous,what do u mean by "OPEN CONNECTION' ??,please explain.. sorry if i ask too much.. :D

  • Thank you YKH. I think it'll sets automatically when the brightness set to higher or lower. CMIIW.

  • WIFI must be enabled with open connection. I had trouble but now uploading photos to FB.

  • hey guys,my FB application didn't work in my w995,it says "LOGIN FAILED" every time i login,is there anyway to make it work..???? please reply ASAP !!! thnx very much :)

  • Hi guys jst i wnt 1 infm W995 browsing hw wt . rply must..

  • /.\...I also want to know...I check carefully already,I think can't set the time out.

  • Superb Quality..!! Sony is the Best.. !!!

  • While on call, you can see that the left soft key says options. Select options and you can see record option. Select record and it'll start recording the call, both sides. When you end the call or when you stop the recording, the recorded file'll be saved in the music folder. Go over there and playback the file. Any doubts, please ask.

  • First open main menu, then go to settings, then connectivity, then wifi. Then turn on wifi and it will automatically search for available wifi networks. Select the required network and connect. Once connected you may open the required application and access the internet. Whenever wifi is connected, the phone'll always use wifi only to connect to internet. It'll not use your mobile network's internet if wifi is connected. It's very simple. There's nothing more you need to do. Please feel free to ask any more doubts.

  • Hello, Does anyone know if this phone is capable to record conversations during a phone call -both parties- ? Are you aware of any Sony Ericsson which can do it? Thank you

  • My phone stopped receiving texts... I will hear the text sound and feel the vibration. Then I will see the notification that someone texted me but, when I open the conversation up there is nothing there. This saddens me. Is it my phone screwed or can I fix this?

  • i think the sliding is the only way to lock/unlock the phone faster. But you can unlock the keys after you slide down, by pressing the up left key and then up right key faster. you can still lock the keys even you slide up, by turn on the automatic keylock. Menu> settings> genaral> security> automatic keylock>on. But you have to wait few seconds it to lock. I think they belive that we dont need to lock the phone when it was slide up.. So dont be upset about it. thank you.

  • Hi guys just bought this phone three days ago, it's awesome!! But one thing I need to know, how to set the backlight timeout? Sorry for my bad English.

  • Hi guys just got it in silver! One question! Is there anyway to lock the phone without pushing the slider up and then down. Usual "* + Unlcok" combo isn't present and I am a bit fussed over it! And video playbakc is very choppy! Damn, I hate it! Help me!

  • ok ok, i found out about that glowing thing. It was a thing called 'lighteffect'. It is not coming originaly to the phone. u have to install it on the mobile. And to do so, u may have to install a thing called 'a2uploader' there are lot's of info about it. So u have to google the 'lighteffect' and 'a2uploader' to get clear info. But as i found out, intalling a2uploader is a bit riskey thing, but worth much the use of it. For example, when we download the new themes with flash menus, the flash menus not working without the a2uploader. Only flash wallpapers will work. But with the a2uploader, the various flash menus in various new themes, will also work. above all the info are a mix of comments from various sites. I dont know more about a2uploader. So im not responsible for any troble. So, google your self and get a clear info. my english is not good. so, above info may not correct 100%. thank you.

  • These three buttons do not light up when recieving an incoming call, nor are there any settings to make them do so - no matter what videos you've been watching.

  • no need for a anti-virus program as these se platforms do not support wide variety of application software formats...and a computer virus cannot damage the device in any way coz the computer virus is usually designed by its author in an executable code .exe which is not supported by this device even if a virus file is present in ur memory card it doesnt do any damage as the os is not capable of running it...

  • formatfactory works very well to convert video files. you can also add subtitles to the converted file and most important it is free. there is some problem with the latest updates of this software but version 2.30 works like charm.

  • u cant....

  • whats the different between the AP set n Midland set of this phone...is the AP set is ori or not?is AP set is ok?is the AP set is the same wit china set?someone plizz explain me about this...

  • Ya, you're probably right. It just may be the new signal algorythm wich now is faulty because before the update it was always showing full signal just like my 2 other phones. I just hope it's not the signal itself that has droped. As for call quality, I haven't experienced any difference because at 3-4 bars out of 5 I don't hear any audible difference. I'll have to check it on the subway where signal is usualy lower. Thanks for replying!!!

  • My PC Suite is not working?!...downloaded the latest only to be disappointed again! How do i save my text messages on my pc?!

  • Thanks a lot my friend, i was on holiday so it as been a while that i didn't came where. I will follow your tips, thanks. All the best for u ... and people this phone rocks, don't have any doubt about it if u want to buy it. Peace

  • Thanks Basheer, that's the answer I'd been looking for. After a long time I got the comparison. Thanks a lot !!!

  • I use 30fps video, mpeg4@512kbps video codec and aac@256kbps audio codec. This works well for short videos but when I convert full movies with this setting, the playback loses audio and video might play frame by frame or else very fast. Anybody knows a solution for this?

  • If it is sound volume that you need, then W395 is better but in terms of sound clarity(both treble and bass), W995 is the king in the whole mobile world. I do not understand what you mean by internal and external but if it is the headphones and loudspeaker that you meant, then also W395 is louder both in loudspeaker and headphones and while the W995 has better sound quality but lesser volume both on loudspeaker and volume.

  • You cannot turn off the light sensor. It is by default set to be on all the time.

  • Great comment buddy. You may use 'Any Video Converter', chose 320x240pixels, use mp4 formatting with 30fps, mpeg4 video codec@512kbps and aac audio format@256kbps. You will be able to play videos in full screen and good clarity with normal file size. You may increase the bitrate for higer video quality but the file size will increase.

  • I don`t think a new firmware version can bring you these kind of problems. I think the algorithm which calculates the balance between bars and real signal strength has changed and now you get fewer bars for the same signal. Probably this was an issue and got resolved with this update. Do you feel a difference in terms of call quality, are you having drop calls or it`s only about having fewer bars now in the same area?

  • Still available.

  • While watching video using Media Player, you can see there are 4 controls: they are play/stop, fast forward/next track, rewind/previous track and the 4rth one is the slow motion button. Looks like this |>

  • You have to convert the videos to mp4 format. Use 30fps video, mpeg4@512kbps video codec and aac@256kbps audio codec. This works well for short videos but when I convert full movies with this setting, the playback loses audio and video might play frame by frame or else very fast. Anybody knows a solution for this?

  • Yes you can zoom with full 8.1 mega pixels.

  • Practically unlimited. You can set it to save messages to memory card and untill your 8GB card is full.

  • Hi guys, whats the max messages this phone can store? in a fix between Aino & W995! Damn This dynamic mobile world!

  • Where can I get those apps and games listed below???

  • I bought it one month ago. It's a powerful pretty phone and I'm in love with it. It has a pretty intense sound quality, not the loudest, but surely on of the clearest. It's Wi-Fi is alright. Camera is fine. Music Player is awesome. Finally it's theme "Divism" is probably the best mobile theme I've ever seen in my life! That W in the middle of the circle moves according to the sensor when you move your phone. No, I wouldn't recommend you to buy it, because it's so unique and I don't want all the world to own it. =]

  • My dear fellos, I really adore this phone. In fact I love all kinds of slider phones. It would have been far worth if it could access Micro SD card. Because M2 cards are less available (not more than 4GB) and they are very very expensive.

  • my w995 is getting hanged and slows down when i choose 3g mode. After taking it to SE S.C. my problem is not solved!

  • Greetings to all, from Portugal. First of all, sorry for my mistakes. I had lots os phones,but this one really rocks the house,best buy for shure. But i have a litle problem. I tryed and tryed in diferent ways to convert videos so i can see then on my w995 but i cant seem them on full screen, i used format factory and super to convert them but with no results. The video always plays in smal size, can you guys tell me what program do you use to convert videos and the right setings please? Thanks a lot and to all the people who might want to buy this phone i can only say what everybody says...BUY IT NOW!! It rocks,i had my phone since the last wednesday ( 27-10-2010 ) i use it hardly do put the contacts, setings, tested with lots os photos, ear lots of music,and several phone calls and messages and the amazing thing is that i still have kind of 15% batery to use, i maybe have to charge it today. But hey, what can i want more, almost 6 days with a single charge and intesive use everyday, its unreal this phone, or maybe im just really lucky :)

  • I'm interested in buying this phone but I'd like to know how's the battery life of this phone with a moderate use?

  • comparing original and fake handsets can be easily distinguished.. the screen itself says it all.. if the colors of an image on your screen is not that solid, it's a fake.. if the response of the menu or any other events, it's a fake.. and, you can easily tweak the settings of your camera in order to have good images.. set your white balance to daylight.. and if you will get a picture on a poorly lit background, just adjust the brightness.. but I'll warn you that that will result in more grain appearing to your image.. hope it helps:)

  • what photo?

  • Wa did u see the results of Sony ericcson,they are now not the top 5 anymore..All Sony ericsson users we should help sony ericsson go back again to the top 5..Pls tell ur friends or relatives to buy sony ericsson phones..This makes all se users down damn it

  • i fully recommend this, best fone i ever had

  • no, w995 rules and is stil the best phone out there in every way

  • based on my full experience of 18 months with this phone, its class and the radio reception is amazing, 10/10

  • hey user maybe the phone u bought w995 is fake that is why you can't play the mp4

  • yes its great. always listen to radio in the morning and at nigth before i sleep.

  • Hi guys. Based on your experience, how would you classify the radio reception? Is it ok?

  • if the resolution is very big, you need to compress the MP4 file so that it would play. That may be the very reason that is why it won't play

  • My w995 can't play mp4 videos. Is it supposed to be like that?
