Problems with SonyEricsson K700i

Seem to get a vary variable signal level with this phone at home yet when I put the sim into other phones the signal is rock solid.

Should I try to update the software or contact sony to see if it is still under warranty. I believe the warranty might be 2 years.

Has anyone else had problems?

Phone is just over a year old.
Never argue with an idiot. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

  • My brother in law has had his for over 12 months and he's had trouble free use since.

    He says that its the best phonewith the best reception hes ever had.

    Saying that, hes always tinkering around with the software etc which I dont really understand.

    for the first question press *# then send (it may not work on all networks)

    the acessories (eg.battery) are garanteed for a year and the handset, for 2 years

    If you eventually get through would much appreciate any feedback.
