Philips 650 Details

Wallace HOW do I check the firmware version?
WHERE can I download some java application for the phone?

ajegilefajar I bought it about 3 weeks ago @ Indonesia, it still using firmware version 13 :(

+ nice battery life. +++
+ nice design, altough a little bit fat.
+ loud song, altough a little bit scratchy.

- sms not automatically saved into archieve,
when SIM full, don't have any option to
select where we want to save the sms.
- sms sorted in ascendent, not descendent.
- can't read phone book from the SIM if the
card obsolote, siemens cellphone can.
- not too good lcd, compared to another
vendor.
- must choose between two, phone books from
the mobile phone or from the SIM, can't
mixed it together.

Bogdan In the Organiser menu, is there o possibility to insert bithdays? Is the phone ringing on the birthdays? I played with it at a shop and did not find this possibility. Thnaks

ergun using it for last 6 months. i'm talking ~2 hrs perday. average battery life for me 4-5 days. i'm so happy that i found a hp that has a batterylife more than 1 day:))

Wallace How do I check the firmware version?
How long should I charge the battery for the first time? My battery does not seem to be working properly.

I liked the executive looks of the phone. Overall I liked it

cw Look around in DJ, KJ n Summit, can't find 9@9C phone. Can someone tell me where to buy in Petaling Jaya and how much? Is the camera accessories available in Malaysia as well?

Dan I was looking for a long time for a phone with this standby time. I have five months using it and I am really pleased with it. I am not such a power talker (average of 15 minutes per day) - I recharge it at a two weeks interval. I have a few requests, I mailed them to philips, too. Maybe if they get more requests they will release a firmware upgrade:

1. There should be a possibility to have the external display on permanently.
2. The missing call announce should be louder, at a fixed interval and also, maybe a blink of the icon on the external screen would help.
3. For the phonebook:
3.1 Once you highlighted a name in the book, pressing OK should display the information about that contact, not the menu it displays now.
3.2 There should be a possibility to change the way the names are displayed (now they're sorted by "last name"). I would dlike to have them sorted by first name, as long as I have different fields for first and last name.
4. There isn't T9 function for Romanian.

Overall it is the best phone I ever had.

khuongnt Customer support of Philips is so bad! They don't have website for customer discussion, no website for downloading firmware, java app, and tips.
The cover of philips 650 is scratched very quickly, if U take the phone in hard surface and set vibrate --> it will come bad

<unknown> Has anyone experienced that the blue OLED suddenly lights up with no outstanding items? It does not go off until you open & close the flip.

itirl I have this phone for 2 months now and I'm very satisfied with it. The only thing I miss is a way to copy the contacts from the phone to the sim card.
