Strictly speaking this is not money saving, but I got the phone off my daughter at a bargain price, now I need help to work it!!
Before I got this phone off my daughter, I had an O2, X1b.
When I recieved a text message on the X1b, if I didn't read it straight away, it used to repeat the message alert every 10 minutes or so until it was read.
I found this really useful, in that if you don't hear a text come in, the phone will call you periodically until you do hear it.
1) Can the K700i be made to do this?
2) Also when a text message comes in, is there a 1 button way of reading it, if the alert is on screen or do you have to access the message box?
3) Same question for a missed call, is there a 1 button way of reading it.
4) Last question, would this "debranding" do anything good for it? It is already unlocked.
I find it much harder to work than the X1b.
Many thanks in advance for any answers.
