Sendo X-series vs. Nokia N-series

Diverts are automatic redirects (diverts) of calls to some other phone number (like your voice mail) when you don't answer after a certain time, or when the phone is busy or when the phone is not reachable/turned off.

Thanks. Yeah I haven't really been active here because I am renting a Nokia 3395... very old school phone but works. In fact it works too well; my bill this coming month is $394.00 USD as opposed to my usual $108.00 USD.

My sendo still has a lonely place since it really has no use, so it stays in the crap drawer for now.

One other thing is that when I go into MENU ---> TOOLS ---> Settings ---> Network, then change Network Selection to Manual from Automatic.... it never finds a connection. I've done many times before and after a key 5 reset memory clear and backup restore, etc.

Does this Network Selection to manual from Automatic work for anyone? It searches without any changes and sometime prompts "No Network Found"....

AWESOME

Oh yeah one more thing, Sendo X1 = crap crap crap, Since last year... and going strong

DON'T YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND!?? 😡 I DONT WANT TO CONVERT MY
MP3's JUST TO BE ABLE TO USE THE SENDO X AS A MUSIC DEVICE, I'D RATHER
BY A NEW PHONE!!!

IF YOU GUYS THINK IT IS WORTH IT, GO AHED! I WILL NOT SPEND EXTRA
UNECCESARY TIME TO CONVERT TO OGG!!

END OF DISCUSSION!

Messus - are any of these any good for you?:

UltraMP3

Mp3Player for Series 60 by Viking Informatics

MP3Go

Some of these have some really advanced features - it might be worth trialling a few. As for freeware solutions, I'm not too clued up, but I'll keep my eyes peeled for a good one for you...

Give HElix MP3 Player a whirl - https://symbian.helixcommunity.org/preview.html

Hey Messus. PM me, I have the perfect phone site for us consumers that were let down, and robbed of our hopes.

My three are working quite well actually on T-Mobile in rural Kansas (near KCK). I have not ventured out with the phones that much, but can only guess that if it work on my street-level here then it should work just about anywhere.

If you want to get rid of it, hit me with a PM and let's talk price 😉 I need one more to make four...

Mark, please buy it off him. Maybe he'll shut up then.

None of the above works any good on the Sendo X, have tried them all!!!

And as weird as it is, they work even worse on the Sendo X than any other
Symbian device I have tried with regards to multitasking, even if the Sendo X
has an extra audio processor to handle audio playback!

Understand it if you can...

The helix player actually works the best of them, but this does not handle
multitasking at all, and can only play one track at the time, no playlists!
But at least the Helix is a living proof of how bad the embeded software
mp3 player in the Sendo X is, because the helix player starts the track
instantly, and fast forwarding works really good!

Sorry man, I tried...I know that there is a very limited amount of RAM available for multitasking - I had a similar problem when trying to use a screen capture app with an MGS game, fortunately Stu was able to find me one that used less RAM and so worked that much better. One way you might be able to improve performance is by shutting down the Now screen using an app like Taskspy - What program are you trying to run with the MP3 player?

No, Mr. Mesus, I'm not on any medication, not even any to stop me wanting to put you in your place. I'll simply keep this forum to the point of the forum, and talk about the phones!

Yes, the N70 looks good, but I don't think it's as nice as the X2 (it's certainly much bigger and heavier!). Have you even seen a real X2???


i know aesthetics dont much matter to some people but i say nokia didnt put a lot of thought into the design of the n70. the x2 stands out better than the 70 does. but i guess the greater question is, is it features that hotmarket a product, or is it sex appeal? this question only comes to mind wen i think of the phenomenal success of the ipod...a bit of bland lookin gadget.

Dude what the hell??? That's a major kick! Last post was over a year ago. I don't think it's wise to continue this old discussion. Maybe it's better to start a new thread...actually, I don't think it's wise to continue the discussion at all. The X2 never made it to mass production, so comparing it to existing phones doesn't seem fair. Why talking about the X2 and kicking an old thread anyway?:con?
