Please Don't Make Same Sony-Ericsson Mistakes

Congratulations on your Erricsson's share acquire, i must say i have been Sony phone holder from the day SONY CDM-Z1 was created, forced my self to stick with SE... and now happy to come back to SONY again. i would like to talk about couple of things...
Response:
The major fall of SE is the fact that they did not listen to fans and most importantly customers. we complained so much over Xperia X1 and Xperia X10 until SE forced us to purchase other brands due to lack of response. so please, responding to complaints is critical when there are so many better phone makers out there.
Lack of future vision:
Look at the Galaxy S, Galaxy Sii, Iphone... you know what they have in common? light years technology for the same price as Caved in SE phones. Arc vs Sii?... SE was against technology for some reason, for instance. who ever was against dual processor and how much it would attract customers, needs to find another company to put down. Lack of LTE?, how can someone not find that as something a cell phone can use in the future? Market share in USA? why would someone not give the US attention, no one buys a full priced phone these days, that only worked when there was no contracts. these days i don't mind a contract as long as i am getting a phone a i can not afford. also i never understood this frequency difference, why did SE wait until iPhone 4s marketed the idea a "world phone" that works anywhere? why did SE insist on making an american version and an international version? example ARC LT15A and ARC LT15i is it SO HARD to make a phone that has all the frequencies LT15Ai? really? who ever was against that idea needs to go as well.
Wrong Focus, right focus was a little too late:
SE phones especially in 2011 was way behind any other company in smart phones, yes the ARC S was maybe a nice attempt but simply not enough... the world is advancing really fast, if you dont catch the train, then your about to bankrupt. it took forever to jump on really powerful phones and instead there so many variations. you can get a cyber-shot but not a Walkman.. you can get a walkman phone but not as smart as the p900 you can get the p900 but not as slim as the p600. SE was competing with its own self ... lets FOCUS, get your stuff together and make a Quality phone not Quantity phone. (GOOD JOB ON THE TABLET) the variations are based on needs not confusing differences. The ARC was a great phone, but SE had missed the train.
THE UPDATES:
The most frustrating customer service i have ever experienced, and when updates come out, they come out first in Nordic places then in middle east country by country... giving every day more fuel to angry customers wondering when they will be lucky to get an update ... why can't there be one global update for all phones and different updates to phone carriers for each country. make it easier, it does not take a company purchase to do so.
Announcements:
it was frustrating, just like it is right now, i still don't know when ARC S comes out. oh wait i am in the U.S. it comes out "WHENEVER" does it look like i am happy? i need a new phone, how SE expect me to purchase an ARC S when i don't know how long i am waiting for it and there is GALAXY and Iphones released in the markets hovering around me every day?
USA, USA, CHINA, USA:
Why was the U.S. not a focus, please someone answer!
Creativity:
androids are awesome operating systems, they are simply great and simply work every single time you use them. i believe, i gave SE so many ideas, non of them were integrated. to be able to distinguish your self from the rest of the pack; you need to be the alpha. simply having the most powerful phone is one factor, Xmore R is another, crazy led designs. look at the Tablet S, it's not the thinnest, it's not the cheapest, it's not the most powerful, yet it's unique in design. and for the market with the dull flat tablets, who ever designed it should design your new phones. the ARC design was AMAZING but lacked the items that are enough to give it a competitive edge in the market.
Charging:
Why is it only micro USB is the main charger, Why can't it be that and another EASY WAY OF CHARGING, why do we have to wait tell apple go to conductive charging? SONY come up with two ways of charging, micro usb is great cause every one has either a BB or an android somewhere. but imagine just placing your phone on something without me connecting... I AM BUYING.
Pricing:
SE charges an arm and a leg, when Galaxy Sii and iphone 4s are $200.00... do you not thing there is something wrong here?
Accessories:
i have suggested times and times, make more accessories, lets compare phones covers for the Iphone and the Any SE phones... the amusing aspect is, why did not SE see what i see?
Cool names PLEASE:
the ARC is a way to start after 10 years of naming products like fax machines... i need to see jina, president, awesome... less chemical equations of fax machine names. LT18a, imagine i tell my friends have you seen the LT18a or have you seen the Sony ARC?
there many many things i can bring to the table, question is, SONY are you going to do the same Mistakes? or am i going to changes? perhaps you need to hire me, so i can get somethings done. how open are you to changes? how open are you to listen to your customers and fans? how open are you to realize the completion and take actions to be ahead of the curve? how open are you to realize that the Video games on cell phones are only fun the first 5 minutes but after that iphone 4s is better?
LTE, Gorilla Glass, conductive charging, Unique design, unified phone, focus on 1 - 3 phones for the whole year, interactive customer service, New logo, Battery performance, UNIQUE DESIGN, top notch camera, waterproof, why dual when you can go Quad... go in to the market with a bang and bigger bang with it's prices. Start cranking AT&T and Tmobile, Verizon and Sprint from now in the U.S. chop chop you have work to do...
I wish you the best of luck SONY and hope to see interesting phones coming from your end.

PLEASE don't make me use microsoft word!!!

I purchased Avery business cards (product number 15871) and was wondering if any templates exist for AppleWorks 6.2.7. Any ideas??

If you open AppleWorks and see Starting Points (press Command + 1 if it is not showing) there is one tab called Templates. Is there anything in there that can get you started? In my version (6.2.4) there are a couple of business card templates.

To SONY management not Sony ericsson Management, please don't do the same mistakes.

I will assume who ever is reading the example i mentioned above is grasping the importance of it... it's as simple as this SE would have been more successful had more people bought SE phones, i am interested in the ARC LT18A, well there is only LT18I that wont work 3g on At&t. here are the problems that you will face... 1 - a happy innocent customer that did not know that, purchased a LT18I (international) and realized SE customers service in Canada or USA that it won't work in the U.S. on 3g... 2 - a frustrated customer like me who knew about the difference from previous mistakes and decided to buy an iphone instead just bc of the being neglected or carelessness from SE towards people in the U.S. either way, wither those two two points were shocking to you as a SE manager, or a common fact that is not important enough... that manager needs to go. with a tahnk you note for loosing market share in the U.S. deserves an excelence in that actually.

FM:
Really? your research says in 2011 people won't buy a phone without FM? and the customers would also do the twist dance from the joy of knowing the phone has FM. it's 2011, perhaps you need to look in your research again.
SonyEricsson does not see the need for a dual processor for an android that won't support it yet:
that right there shows the difference between a company with a long vision and another with a short one. my answer to that statement, please set down get some popcorn as you are just about to watch S ii and iphone 4S a chance to be light years ahead of you, and sell millions of more phones than you. just because someone that works at SE has a very short vision ruining a whole company. president of Syria bashar alasad, believes that his country is under control. the achievements of democratic countries did not impress him and the fall of Lebian, Egyptian, and Algerian presidents did not get him to even think twice about what is happening. it amazes me how people can be so selfish and short visioned.
Waterproof:
Great idea, where is the phone, i am in the U.S. while you are at it, let me suggest accessories. a helmet accessory that would station that phone on my helmet while i am racing... right there i can buy a phone that is weather proof records 720 p and when i am done from my athletic even i can use it as a phone. knowing SE, don't even think about that idea, and i will get an email saying we only have a shoulder accessory for now thank you for inquiring.
Closing fan websites?
xperiablog.net, um........ ?
now there are people at SE that need to be promoted,
Updates had gotten faster and better, but they still need more work
unlocking the boot loader is a great i dea
designs started becoming extra beautiful
SE website is beautiful
facebook page is great
xmor r, phone screen size EXCELENT
forum support is getting better

Solved!
Go to Solution.

lov2bugu, you said things the exact way I wanted to express them! It was like watching me talking to a SONY’s CEO.
I don’t really think they are not aware of the problems. SONY used to be the 27th largest company in the world, according to Forbes. They are now at the 456th place!!
They are aware of their problems and I think, the move to buy the remaining stocks from Ericsson, is a move to bounce back into the market. They found the right time, where the stock is too low and the economics around the globe don’t look promising enough. I have to recognize them, all the bad phases they went into this year … hacking attack, loss of their factory in London, global economic climate etc.
But these are not excuses good enough not to produce quality, reliable and technologically advanced goods. I think that SONY is not to blame for the bad course SE has had. I think this is what SONY wants to revert. They want to “embody” all their technology … BRAVIA engines (TV Tech), Walkman and Cybershot tech (using Carl Zeiss lenses), VAIO (Comp tech) and finally PS3. Ericsson tried to integrate them, unsuccessfully.
Overall, I thing SONY, did not have or did not attempt to have the control of SE, hence, the answer you got back from SONY “… anything related to SE must be posted on the website of SE”. I think they will bounce. Just give ‘em some time. I’m willing to give them time, but not too much though. Just because I’ve always loved this brand!

Please don' make us wait... it's time for ICAL iPhone task integration

With many app developers having great success with task/to do list, isn't time (or way past time) for Apple to allow tasks, via iCal, to flow to the iPhone and push technology to prompt users of important things to do, at a certain time? I am very busy like many other mac users, and I don't want to litter my calendar with many, time sensitive, todos. Beside,s other to-do apps would be able to offer customers up to date functionality with iCal task support.
Please don't make us wait any longer.

Never buy a Sony Ericsson for it's Customer Service ? What do you think ?. Terrible experience.Please advise.

Hi , my name is Jomon Philipose . I am from Bangalore and a victim of poor workmanship and service of Sony Ericsson C905A. It was not even 6 months that the camera , for which I bought the set showed it's true colours. "Open Lens Cover problem in Sony Ericsson phone". Yeah , just try and put that on Google and see the number of negative matched results for it !!!!!!. Guess should have read the reviews for Sony Ericsson before spending 12000 INR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.It's not only your hard earned money but the free frustration that you get for no fault of your own .. Taking it to the service centre is the only option where they tell you to repair it in 7 days but takes 2 weeks forcing you to buy a new phone if you do not have one. Forget all the re syncronisation and setting that you have to do about it, and think about the responses that you get from the Service Centre , in do not know what language. Caution : If you talk to them for more than hour it's hazardous to your spoken English .
All you get to hear is the recorded tone of "Please wait for 48 hours " Even after you call them after 2 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
No response to the Work Order complaint (SE311SS211175) what so ever . This is a crazy customer service !!!!!!! . I will definately never buy a Sony Ericsson no matter how good a phone reviews are . Neither will let anyone whom I know buy it and put in best efforts to awaken them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! .
I have logged innumerable complaints at with Legal Feedback , Media Feedback , send an email to [email protected]@support.sonyericsson.com>
Don't believe me ? , well you would have if you had heard the conversation with the Shrishti Services guys who tells me that neither " can they give the phone on time " or " Will they return it to me unrepaired!!!!!!". At one point of time I thought , the phone was Sony Ericsson's intellectual property!!!!.
My phone is under Warranty . I am being told by the Sony Service Contact Centre guys over and again that my phone is not liable to change WO Number : SE311SS211175 old Work order : Se311SS210347. Request number for the replacement of the product
90599712.
They tell me I cannot speak to the escalations manager . Neither can I escalate it .
Is it that all I have to do is keep on waiting without my phone ?. It's been the 17 th Day now . I am sure it is going to take a lot more time . They shamelessly said 8 more working days yesterday lol!!!!!
I am definitely seeking help from the Consumer Court of India .
Guys ,lucky you if you had not to face the Customer Service Centre especially in India , or else may God help you .
I really want to hear from the people who actually think there job is "Customer Care" and they are been paid for it coz I am still without a phone.

If you think you are lucky go ahead and buy it,maybe by this time you could have already bought it coz God forbid something happens to it, you do not have a good customer service to support it. After getting my phone back , not surprisingly again for the 4 th time the camera stopped working . It's a faulty product altogether and I do not want to go through the pains again to go through them . They are supposed to check the set again within 90 days from the time , the repair was carried out. But you know what I have given up on them as my work does not allow me to keep my phone away for a long time .
It would be a real pain in the place you know where . All my research for buying a good phone at competitive price went straight into the gutters .
. I would rather buy a new phone than going through the same process again for the 4 th time. And that would not be a Sony Ericsson for sure. They simply wouldnt agree that it is a faulty set and give me all kinds of stupid excuses like your phone has been used for 11 months and all . I have a question for them do you really spend thousaands for a just a phone only for the features or the peace of mind as well. Cause this one has definitely not brought peace to me . I mean c'mon 4 th time, same problem!!!!!!!

Sony Ericsson Cedar - Suddenly switched off not restarting. Battery is fine. Please help me in solution.

Hi,
I have a Sony Ericsson cedar which is more than one year old.
One day i switched off it and tried to switch on the next day.
But it was not switching on. A blanck white screen was coming up for some time and disappearing.
What might be the problem, please help me to get a solution as there are lots of information in it.
Thank You,

I suggest that you try to run a software reinstall using SUS.

Don't make mistake of assigning credit to wrong Sk...

Skype should be ashamed of their confusing and lacking user interface. Don't make the mistake of assigning credit to the wrong Skype Account, because Skype will not let you transfer it back and refuses to give you a refund or have the amount transferred to where you want it or can at least use it. Basically they will keep it. We accidentally added credit to an unused Account which is now wasted funds and in these times, who can afford that. Thanks a lot, Skype.. (offensive text removed) what happened to consumer laws here.. Skype, this is Australia. Get with the xxxxxxx program. At the very least, provide a way for account holders to forward credit to anyone else, maybe just to someone with the Group or Skype manager. We bought a product that we cannot use. Consumer law says that it must be returned within 7 days. Very disappointed, Shame on you.

FEV27:
Skype does not use a telephone call-in service facility. I just tested how to find instruction on contacting Skype Customer Service myself. I clicked on the Help link (it turns into a tab as I scroll over it) at the top of the Skype website, and then typed "contact customer service" in the search box. The first two items that appeared were,
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA1170/how-can-i-contact-skype-customer-service?q=contact+Customer+... and
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10656/what-is-live-chat-support?q=contact+Customer+Service
Here's a screen shot of what I see (the blue titles are actually links to click on):
Choose and pick your way through the various drop-down menu options as they are presented and you will be connected to a Skype customer service agent. If you are redirected to the Community or experience any problems reaching an agent, try again using a different web browser, making sure pop-up's are temporarily enabled. Choose a different path through the various options than you used before.

Elaine

I bought 2 of the same song by mistake and they were the short version i was listening to in order to make sure that I was buying the correct record. How do I get a refund in order to buy the right song?--

All purchases are considered final, but you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

I lost my Download Stacks option. Now it is just a Download folder. Need to find out how to get the Download Stacks option back. Previous answers to this question don't make any sense to me. Please help in explicit detail. PS I'm using Mountain Lion.

Need to know how to get it back to its original Download Stack. Previous answers to this questionin Apple Support just don't make any sense to me. I'd appreciate explicit directions on how to restore this feature. Currently it's just a Download folder... must have accidently poofed it away.
Help!

And if what WZZZ suggests doesn't work (and hopefully it will) move the file name below to the desktop, log out or restart and the Dock preferences with its defaults should be recreated. You'll need to re-configure it as you like it:
com.apple.dock.plist
It's located: in Finder hold the Alt/Option key and from the Go menu select Library>Preferences.
If it fixes things, delete the file on your desktop.

My iPad can't find my Sony Ericsson phone via Bluetooth

Hi, can anyone help me please? Both of my devices my iPad with retina display and my Sony Ericsson Arc S, have the Bluetooth turned on but they won't connect with each other. Does anyone have advice on how to connect them as I'd like to transfer my photos from my phone. The message on my iPad is cannot find phone make sure it's switched on :-/

iPads and iPhones do not support bluetooth file transfers to each other or any other device. There may be apps in the app store that can allow such things but each hone has to be running the same app. iOS Devices also don't allow bluetooth transfers from computers.

Remote update service on sony ericsson G502 does not work

I have a Sony Ericsson G502. The phone has a problem which causes it to restart when I am on a call. Sometimes it just restarts on its own. I searched on the net and found that other people have also seen the same issue and I believe a software upgrade will fix the problem.
I dont have the usb cable of the phone so I cannot do the upgrade using the 'Update Service' software from the pc. I tried doing a 'remote update service' from the phone in Menu-->Update Service-->Search for Update, but it just says that your phone is running the latest software. The current software version on my phone is 1203-8254 R1FA031 080512. Is this the latest software available? I have bought the phone 2 years back (but used it sparingly), and I am not convinced that there is no update to this software.
Please suggest a way I can upgrade this phone? I like the phone, but this restart problem makes the phone very unreliable for everyday use. Kindly help.

Your best bet is to get a USB cable and update the software with SEUS on your PC.If, as the remote update service tells you, you already have the latest software, you can only re-install the software via PC anyway.Alternatively, you can perform a master reset on the phone and see if that fixes the problem.Hope this helps.

What bit of "Please don't phone me" doesn't BT get...

What bit of "Please don't phone me" doesn't BT get?
I have experienced a cataloge of corrosponce with BT dealing with the bad broadband speed issues that I have had on my connection since last november. Too long to list here see the link below
Terrible broadband speed
Its fair to say that individual BT operators and advisors have been courtious and have tried to be helpfull most of the time but...BT have failed to find a long term fix for my issues.
The last month up until yesterday I was lucky enough to experience a wopping and reasonable steady 1.5 mbps...wow! Seriously it was fantasic! Compared to a miserable 0.3mbps or worse. I felt I was getting what I was paying for! Then the bill came in (and was wrong yet again!)! and coincidently? the speed returned to its former low!
Without baffling the humble user with scientific terminology, it turns out the problem is caused by line noise - not of my own making! Well, I noticed that incoming calls on the landline telephone were knocking my broadband out, after a while I made the desision to dissconnect the phone because of the issues with calls knocking my speed down. I imformed as many of my familly and friends not to call me on my phone and use my cell instead. However I can't stop random incoming calls, which sends the blue lights on my hub to flickering orange. This in turn equates to the stupid adsl2 software that BT use, knocking down my profile and hence speed!
When are BT going to get to grips with their stiffling system that takes up to ten days to recallibrate itself?
Their old system used to work fine at this rural address, quickly reasserting itself if there was a line knockout or interference - which is common in rural locations. Now it seems in order for BT to advertise super fast speeds to most that can benefit from it who live within a couple miles of the exchange. The rest of us that don't, have to suffer for the sake of this new adsl2 system. Its a shambles and at times heartbreaking and BT still expect us to pay the same as anyone else!
Dont be fooled. If you live in a rural location or more than two miles from the exchange, the chances are that if you are experiencing loss of BB speeds recently, whence before you had a reasonable service. Its down to the new BT adsl2 system they have brought in. Its not your fault, don't let the customer support advisors tell you otherwise! At least thats my experience!
The new system is more sensitive to noise, true it may be marginally faster, but as it turns out at what cost?
I have had a dozen engineers who have come round and each remarkably have "found and fixed the problem" then I get a reasonable speed for a few days before it drops again as of yet I have not had a pernament fix!
The loss of speed issues have led to a series of 'knock on effects' including my wireless BB BT mobile going beserk leading to a £260.00 bill for one month!
#Being charged £40.00 for Broadband phone calls I did not make - I had to call in the police for the theft of phone calls made before BT would take me seriously - they said there was no record and that it was impossible to hack BT broadband phones! In the end they found a 'mistake' but it was a **bleep** of a fight to get them to admit that!
Even after that, they cut me off (for non payment of these calls) and are now trying to charge me a reconnection fee!
Also I am paying for an 'unlimited' broadband package and broadband anywhere - which is a complete joke because I am lucky if I can get broadband anywhere at all!I know I really need to sort this out - but there is no one dpartment it seems that can deal with it all
After my BT Broadband Anywhere phone freaked out (Down to issues related to my BT hub losing connections - I ended up asking BT Mobile to dissconect my gprs for fear of it happening again - even though I was paying for the 'unlimited 'gprs service) and the 'stolen' BB phone issues, I dissconected my wireless completely!
So NO BB on my BT mobile, on average I am lucky if I get a week a month on maybe 1mbps, the other three weeks on 0.3mpps on my home broadband.
The trouble is that I am so sick and tired of being pushed from department to department and repeating myself on a weekly or even daily basis. I can never get one individual who can deal with all my problems in one go, #I am absolutely fatigued with it all.
Going somewhere else is not an option I am imformed where I live.
I have written letters to the customer service department and they have phoned me back and said things often at times when I am off-guard , so its hard to remember the details.
Now my policy is to have everything put in writing.
Despite using BT's 'contact us' form to report the latest speed issues and ticking the box that says
"respond by email" and stating "Please don't phone me" as well on my message body....I get a series of phone calls! Both on my mobile number and on my landline!
No comprehensible message returned as requested by email but phone calls from polite and friendly Indian help advisors...and guess what? The calls the BT staff have made on my landline, has knocked my profile down even further!
Even though I headed my message with "Please do not phone me on my landline phone number"
How ignorant is that?
I have even asked for my landline calls to be diverted, but that costs £5.00 pm - I don't see why I should have to pay for this.
What I would like is for one BT person who can sort out All of these problems for me
(That'l be technical department, security department, billing department, sales department, customer service department and more and then back again - I hav'nt got the stomach or time for being pushed from pillar to post!)
- but from BT that is probablly asking too much!
I fell I have had so many problems with the BT Broadband service, with the time I have spent trying to get things sorted, BT should be paying me! And they should take a good hard look at how their system works!
Bt have a **bleep** cheek to charge me £150.00 per quarter for all this!
My father pays £96.00 for this same service, gets 8.00mbpsm, can use his landline and hubphone, can use his wireless, plus BT vision as well - How fair is this?
I think its time for Ofcom

It would be Otello and not Ofcom but in my experience they are very much in the pocket of BT (not least since they are funded by the telcom companies).

Adobe Acrobat for Sony-Ericsson P900 "Master of All"

A year later and the P900 is finally available (in a "watch this space" kind of way) and the lucky few that have them already are starting to fall in love with them.
Perhaps a Sony-Ericsson digitally signed version can now become available - running under what is essentially "Open Symbian" not "Nokia Symbian".
The P900 seems pretty much like a dead cert to take over the Marketplace that the Nokia Communicator never quite managed to properly target.
Looks like a few diehards will still be using their Communicators in five years time after having forked out for the hardware in the first place, but there is a new sheriff in town.

' PLEASE GAWD!!!! We need a PDF reader for UIQ that will allow us to read DRM (sPDF) protected eBooks. PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!! eBooks and the ease and portability thereof is one of the PRIMARY reasons I have myself a PDA (or in this case smartphone - one beefy enought to be classified as a PDA essentially as well). Not being DRM-enabled is crippling.
' Because of Adobe's seeming disinterest in the platfrom, and previous experience I've had on other Symbian devices - for PDF access I HAPPILY use MBrain Software's "PDF+" - BY FAR the best PDF-reader for the Symbian platform... It runs on MOST Symbian devices and looks great. But no DRM module exists for it.
' Methinks Adobe is asleep at the wheel though... The smartphone market is one of the fastest growing market segments globally and Symbian is leading the way. And yet Adobe supports a total of 3 different Symbian devices?!? All from the same vendor and in the same model family!?! Scary.
' Makes you wonder whether someone else is likely to run over Adobe with a superior format of their own IP. Heehee. Looks that way.
' WAKE UP ADOBE!!! For goodness sake - the UIQ platform has been widely available for over two years already - let's not even mention the myriad other Symbian platforms!!! Get with the program!
' Please?
