very dissapointed really

No promised MMS, no signal improvements, and although I have yet to install, it looks like there is no fix to the following problems either

1 - SMS name fix, althought the patch on this site does that so feck em!
2 - Switching to phone app after sending sms AFTER a call has been made/received
3 - O2 CS in general, look at all the other international releases, yet O2 are still waaay behind.
4 - Action update is beyond a joke!

What? 3.14.13? .... I am expecting a new rom with MMS fuction...

Is it just me or are people not bothering to read the O2 site properly.

They didn't actually promise the MMS update in March. This is due "later in in the year", along with modem capabilities and other stuff.

MMS or sms name fix is not built into any ROM available anywhere. I know somebody who works for O2 and has the next ROM/Radio being tested and apparently this doesn't have this either.

I agree, lets kick their ass on how long it's taken to release this, but lets get our facts straight first.

Lets be realistic. A lot of the stuff we want is not going to be available until PPC 2003, so we will all have to buy new devices by then.

absolute disgust !!!

this is a shambles I wonder how this company continues to exist ?

how can they promise items in an upgrade then basically take 4 months longer than anyone else to put out this "upgrade".

Seems to me like they have the attitude "we have your money so f@ck you"

I WILL NEVER purchase another XDA from o2.

the idea was fantastic the way they treat people is an absolute disgrace.

could you imagine the rebellion there would be if you bought a telly that kept on losing the channels you had programed when it felt like it.

this was a total waste of money on my behalf.

I will go back to my ipaq and nokia combination.

does anyone want to buy a pretty ppc with a half functioning toy phone built in.

:twisted: :x

THIS IS CRAP!

radio 4.16 still has the unable to re-aquire signal unless plugged into the cradle.

****e ****e ****e I gave O2 the benefit of the doubt for tha last 6 months with the promise that this radio version would fix this problem but it does not. I repeat NOT !

now my blood is boiling time to start a campaign.

The problem with not reaquiring the signal is SIM card related. Get a new SIM card and the problem will disappear.

Atleast this is what I found.

amarko5,

So you have been waiting 6 months for an upgrade to fix your xda not picking up a signal unless in a cradle? And it never occured to you that you have a broken xda or sim?

Well done on winning the completely stupid 2003 award. How do you not fall over more often?????

Unbelieveable.

Now, now, settle down or there'll be tears before bedtime. It is ****e though isn't it? How many people do you think O2 have got working on software? Could it be as many as one? Do you think he(she) works full time, maybe he has a day job as a plumber, very busy time of year this! The nokia/ipaq option is looking good.

Unbelievable you are so wrong

I have contacted o2 on many occasions and it is a "KNOWN BUG" so keep your simple minded comments to yourself.

i have tried 3 sim cards in the phone and all are the same.

I have 2 friends who suffer tha same complaint and there are also many people reporting the same problem on the official source o2 website.

it occurs if the phone loses signal for any extended period of time and if the battery is less than 3/4 charged.

when dropped back in cradle the extra power seems to kick it back up.

if signal is not lost ie local in good area then the phone functions normally
even with low power.

get your facts straight before making childish comments.

P.S. i only ever fall over when i trip over idiots like YOU !
