They are undocumented, not supported by Siemens and should be used at your own risk. All data will be lost if you use this feature. Top Links. If you're looking to get hold of this handset, try the following: Try a search on Pricerunner or Kelkoo for current suppliers Take a look on eBay.

If you're looking to use your SX1 for sending and receiving e-mail, consider taking out an account with free provider, BT Yahoo. For details of connectivity, see our Series 60 Getting Connected section. If you don't currently have the ability to beam files to the handset via Bluetooth or infrared either from another handheld device or from a PC , then you may wish to purchase an IRDA adapter for your PC this means you'll be able to install software, backup and synchronise data between phone and PC - See our Series 60 PC connectivity page for more.
Install via PC - Assuming you've installed the PC connectivity suite that was supplied with your phone, look for the "Install software" option.
You'll need to have the handset connected to the PC via serial, Bluetooth or infrared for this to work. By email - The alternative, is to email the file that you're trying to install, typically a SIS Symbian installation file to your own email account, and then use your phone to logon to your email details and download the SIS file as an attachment into your phone's Messaging Inbox.
You'll need to have a file manager on your SX1 to access the file from the memory card file managers are available from Handango. And on top of that, thanks to me, the Recorder button on the side is now broken as well and the front panel is cracked and may split into two. Fortunately, the loose numeric keyboards can be fixed by first cleaning them and then by using pliers to carefully bend the metal brackets that secure them.
Once rebuilt, the difference is huge. Cleaning the back of the button on all of the three keyboards fixes the lack of sensitivity and pressing hard on the buttons would no longer be required.
When it comes to the software, all of the devices are unmodified with no additional application installed and no media is found either. All the devices run Symbian 6. Any kind of packaging paperwork or accesories here are out of the question as already mentioned. I feel lucky that I got the two chargers and the battery, which is not even original. Keeping one of the existing devices as a development platform would probably be the best combination.
I might even sell them, if I find a well preserved unit to swap them with. No plans for hardware improvements except for peeling off the ruberised coating of the experimental SX1 to see how it would look like without it, which I already did — it looks way better! While the black SX1 and the Ice blue one will be left in stock condition, the experimental SX1 will be set up for booting an alternative platform known as Qtopia.
Based on Linux, Qtopia later known as Qt Extended and then QtMoko is an embedded platform for mobile applications and was running on various devices of the past such as phones, PDAs and others. This means that I get to keep Symbian on the internal memory, allowing for some mods while dualbooting Qtopia. It's wide, it's striking looking and it's just a little bit different. Measuring x 56 x 19 mm and weighing grams the SX1 might make you feel a bit ill at ease at first.
The main reason for this, and also the main talkinig point at parties, is its defining and perhaps "win or lose" feature -- the quirky keypad which sits not below the display but either side of it. On the left of the display are the digits one to five and the star button, and to the right six to zero and the hash. Like most things, it's a certainty that with time this would feel right and normal, but not in the review period.
It was a struggle to send SMS messages, a task involving a lot of concentration and frowning whilst you work out which button to press. You can't just bash out a message and off it goes. You need to grip the phone and unless you've got very long fingers you need to use both hands, which is clumsy if you happen to be carrying shopping bags or trying to open a car door at the same time.
Underneath this unusual display there is a 5-direction joystick and two soft-keys. This is all good. On either side there are buttons for answering and rejecting a call. Beneath there is a "C" button for deleting symbols during typing and a "shift" button for use when working with lists and texts. These buttons are huge, because they can be. Buttons aside, the display itself is very impressive, even in direct sunlight.
The handset is equipped with a 65, colour TFT display, with a resolution of x pixels. The keypad glows blue. I just about to return it to the cellular shop. So bad. WEll i luv the looks of the phone,, N yet confused if 2 buy it or not. IF yes which 1's? Or if with in this month? M frm the middleeast UAe ,Dubai..
