931SH Thread

[ConKhi]

now im torn...what should my next phone be a 931sh or a sh1810c

[easternlight]

Not a 931SH slow interface and touchy screen always ends up on yahoo or some other app when you accidently brush the screen a pain in the *** this phone. Tiny keypad too, I am trying to find a way to like it as it was a gift but so far it has just been annoying. Still looking at your sig you are either a sucker or addicted to the next big thing or have money to burn so go ahead do what I do. Stick with Nokia.

blah to nokia

931sh is underpowered so I am not surprised its slow, after all its a emp u360 platform is probably being maxed out.

Dear lord, not a Nokia. I've not had a single Nokia stand up to extended use. I'm amazed I didn't start using keitai sooner. Way more durable than Nokias ever were. I like to think of the time I had a 6820 and then a 6670 as just a phase (both lasted me about/less than a year while my Toshiba is on its 3rd year and still going save for BT).

Back in the Voda JP days the grass was always greener on the keitai side. Now it's not so easy unless you want a Chinese Sharp.

I think my old nokia 3360 lasted about 2 months..... And then it's sitting in a bag in pieces.

My friend's Nokia 3500 lasted a week, till it fell out of his pocket and the 3500 has a new friend after that... Car Tires But you should have seen it, smashed into little peices, there was no way that was going for repairs At least we got the SIM Card out

[stevetam]

you shouldn't even get me started about how much I hate my.....I won't go any further on this discussion

[yangj08]

So it's settled, ConKhi should probably get a SH1810C (a recent price drop here should be carrying over to the other side of the Pacific... sometime). But no attitude, please. (oh dear lord, awkward would be an understatement)

[Chillyman]

SH1810C? Well it's been nice knowing ya Conkhi!

do u hear notes of death?

Dear lord, not a Nokia.

We had a Nokia 3595 for about 4-5 years and it still works perfectly to this day. I even IMEI unlocked it...

I think the newer Nokias are cheap. The older ones are pretty decent for what they are.

I'm trying to use it as my CPR phone, but it doesn't seem like a good CPR phone or else AT&T hates my hypersim (why can't I have a happy, cooperative AT&T sim like other people? ;_; )

Claim you lost it and get a new sim card =\ You probably have to pay a small fee but make sure you get one that works.

Nokias, lol tell me about it. There's actually a bunch of us regular forumners over at HWZ at the Exotic forum, who's pretty much anti-Nokia in a sense, i'm definitely anti-Nokia for now. Never had a single Nokia phone in my ownership ever since 2004, my last one was a 7610 actually and that one was pretty understandable since it's one of the more popular Nokia S60 model during its time, and it's consider a fashion statement to own that model as well back then.

Not to mention that the handset upgrade transition from the Nokia 7610 to the Vodafone 903SH was a great one for me IMO, especially with the megapixel jump from 1MP to 3.2MP of CCD quality goodness. But in all honesty, the reason why I dumped my 7610 back then was because it was already giving me LCD display issues in less than 1 yr of ownership, so I had it sent to NCC and had it repaired eventually since it was still under warranty, and sold it off shortly thereafter in order to recuperate back some cash to fund for my 903SH purchase back then. That's partially my whole history with the 7610 that is.

I have to admit, before I started the ride with 903SH, I didn't know much abt Sharp phones or japanese keitais in general, I was only mostly in touch with Nokias/Panasonic back then. Even up till this day it still kinda surprises me how good the build quality of japanese handsets can be, compared to the typical Nokia handset that I had owned. My almost close to 4-year-old 903SH had never given me a single hardware/software problem since the day I own it, not even rebooting/hanging issues that's usually associated with Nokia Symbian handsets these days.

@sega: You might wanna try using Sony Ericsson/Samsung handsets to do your CPR procedures instead, over here at HWZ most of us don't have much luck with Nokias, personally even I haven't had much luck with my family's S40-based Nokia 6280 or S60-based N81/N82, it always results in lost of signal after a day or two, this was back then when I still had to do CPRs for my SH905i though with iNex hypersim. Now with my new anti-CPR based hypersim (it's not really anti-CPR, some people get it some people don't, I'm just lucky) sold by one of my local sellers, I never had to do a single CPR since then but to be on a safe side, I tried CPR-ing once with my Samsung phone when I initially got the hypersim, never had a problem since then with regards to auto-connection. I do get random outs at blind spots every now and then, but usually it will just auto-reconnect if I left it by itself, or sometimes if I know I'm moving into some well-known blind spot at some random building/underground basement carpark, I will just switch my phone to Self Mode and then disable it again when I'm out in the open.

[stevetam]

sega! its a matter of which hypersim for At&t..and it looks like at&t doesn't like keitais! Hell, even rogers will take keitais. (Given the 4000 card requires inex)

att works if you got decent 1900 gsm
