please can u help me to select one from this two product, Sendo x or Sagem my x7,  please back ur choice,

Sendo x is a smart phone can't compare with sagem

Sendo x is a smart phone can't compare with sagem

be aware that the sendo x comes wit a lot of bugs in the firmware so u need to upgrade it to the latest firmware which is x1.198.8.2 release IG, expansys version. u can get the flashfile at www.sendosmartphones.com as well as some cool themes there. register and checkout my posts. also download the pdf howto first as it tells u how to go about it. but the website is buggy itself so if u can't get the flashfile email me and i'll send it 2 u as well as the pdf. can't give my phone num for security reasons. sendo x is the best series 60 OS6 phone out there( even better than 6600 and 7610, which are s60 OS7 i.e they run on newer symbian OS). i currently use it and i love better than any phone. its a phone while sagem x7 is, well, just a phone. and a crappy one at that.
p.s in most forums I'm known as broken-glass, kain and neoteny so if u see either just follow the threads.  email me neoteny7@yahoo.com

Yeah  I agree with u. I use sendo X too before changing. That release did not correct all the bugs. infrared problem for instance. I updated mine to that release and that did not correct the bug.

actually there are no fakes, one in ten sendoXs hav a problem wit the infrared and as yet no one can tell if its the software or the hardware module, and since sendo as a company is no more we may never know, but trust the geeks. if your infrared is not workin then there isnt much u can do about it ( who needs it anyway), but if the problem is that the infrared is always bright red and the phone heats up, simply open the phone and disconnect the IR module. this poroblem is all over and has to do with the fact that sendo ran into serious financial probs after their case wit microsoft based on the z100 phone sendo built for them. of course the z100 never saw the light of day, just as the sendo X2 may never be launched. motorola has acquired the whole sendo R & D dept because those sendo boys are good at symbian programming. sendo X is a great phone, one of the only fones u can firmware-upgrade yourself (flashing,really). if u are havin any software problem just do a hard reset (off the phone, hold down 5 and keep it pressed while powering on the phone. select yes to clear memory and the phone will reboot-be aware tho that you'll lose all videos, ringtones, user-installed applications etc.) the good thin is hard reset takes care of 97% of software problems.
if u have a sendo x i recommend u go to www.sendosmartphones.com, download the new 1.198.8.2 flashfile.  after savin the driver that comes wit the package and installin the upgrade software in ur pc, switch off ur phone, connect ur usb data cable to the pc then pres and hold * while switching on. u'll see an orange connector plug. fix the usb to the phone, and when the found New Hardware wizard comes up, select to browse from a specific location. click on the sendo.exe driver file u saved earlier and when the driver is installed ( the orange plug becomes green) start the update program and follow the instructions. never switch, disconnect or use the phone when its updating. when its done you'll see a green tick (as in the Nike swoosh). unplug the phone, pull out the battery, re-insert the batt and switch it on. when its done bootin press *#0000# and you'll see the new firmware version. the new firmware comes wit a new theme called Curves and, a message letter counter, and the ability to delete the default NOW pane. (it also comes wit a program called EasyStart that supposedly makes gprs setup less hectic though i can't get it to work.neither can anybody, it seems, but MTN, GLO and Vmobile all offer OTA gprs setup so no probs). now go back to sendosmartphones.com and download tons of themes. however these themes only work wit firmware updates so if u have not flashed ur phone, forget it.
benefits of firmware flashing? here are a few:
1. ur phone becoms faster and less prone to freeze up (it will still freeze but only once         in a long while
2. night mode in the camera is gone, good thin because u hav a camera flash
3. u have five Mb of RAM, 1mb more than befor flashing
4. u can delete the default Now pane
5. gprs freezing bug is gone
6. the camera becomes marginally (repeat, marginally) brighter
7. slightly higher framerates for 3gp and mp4 video playback in RealOne
8. smooth camera framing before takin a shot
9. u can install custom themes (windows xp, porsche, linux, apple, woodboard, N70            theme, Modry Sendian, silver Azurro etc)
10. sms letter counter when typing sms so u know how many letters u have left.
   all in all ur fones performance improves.
  now on to software. you can get free apps, games and videos for your sendoX in the following websites:
1. www.aivanet.com
2. www.mobuniverse.com
3. www.nokia-world.org
4. www.puremobilezone.com
4. www.mobango.com
5. www.allaboutsymbian.com
to find more sites, go to google and type the following:
1. inurl:symbian_freeware
2. filetype:sis
3. allinurl:nokia_apps
4. inurl:blzpda
5. inurl:binpda
6. inurl:evilpda
7. inurl:ximpda
searches 1 to 3 will take you to any site or article that has anything to do with freeware for symbian fones or applications irrespective if the're free-or shareware. searches 4 to 7 will most likely turn up anythin that has to do wit symbian apps hacker teams blizzard, bin, evil and xim, or stuff hacked by them.
now, before u begin installing, i suggest u back up ur phone if possible, and/or install FExplorer and simworks antivirus ( can get them from most of the above sites for free). FExplorer is a program very much like windows explorer, it lets u get in all ur drives-C: (flash), D: (RAM), E:(MMC,where available), and Z:(ROM). in essence, it lets u burrow deep into ur phone to delete, rename, copy and paste files among lots of other things. simworks antivirus is self explanatory, lol, and is necessary because u are downloading from the net.
before  you start downloading please note the following:
1. sendo x is built on the series 60 symbian OS 6 platform. this means that apps and sis (symbian filetype) games meant for symbian OS7 (6600,7610, etc) may be imcompatible wit ur phone. note before downloading.
2. java games wit the jar/jad extension designed for  java MIDP 2 will not properly install as sendo x is MIDP 1.0
so what is series 60? well it is nokias way of making the symbian OS (which is really based on Psion's EPOC OS)  user friendly and easy to navigate by designing a simple interface. series 60 is the most popular symbian series. others are series 80 (communicator), series 90 ( nokia 7710) and UIQ (sonyericcson P800, p900,p910 etc, all pen based symbian devices). symbian series 60 constitutes 7650 ( the first symbian phone), 3650, 6600,7610,6620,6630,6670,6680,N70,N72,N73,N90,siemens sx-1, sendo-x and others i forgot, (hey, I'm writing all this from memory)
  the following applications are recommemded by me:
1. smartmovie (player and converter, for playing avi movies). u simply pop in ur fave vcd or dvd, convert it to any lenght u wish and send to ur phone. superb framerates and quality.
2. FExplorer
3. Ogg player (non mmf version) for playing ogg sound files. better than mp3
4. blizzard installer (blzinsapp) for playing ngage games wit the .blz extension on ur sendo x.
5. instantsys, for sending user-installed apps to a friend via bluetooth.
6. mobireader or isilo ebook reader
7. sms guard
8. calcium, a far better calc than the crappy nokia clone
9. highviewer, for viewin interactive docs.
10. agile messenger or I'm+, for loggin in ur msn,yahoo and icq accounts.
11. chat conqueror,irc chat, same as the pc version
12. symella, a gnutella-like file-swapping p2p app
13. taskspy, monitoring processes, threads and tasks, compressing runtime memory and killin errant apps
14. torch, cool for dark places.
15. stacker, for compressing user memory
16. mobiluck, bluetooth chat client.
please note that these are only a tip of the proverbial iceberg and represent only a tiny fraction of what i have in my phone. u may not like some or all of them.
well i hope this helps. as for that guy asking for the firmware I'm sorry but I'm havin probs uploadin because its  a hefty 30mb but if u are in kaduna just mail me and i'll send u my number. cheers and really hope this helps.

 
neoteny,ure d bomb men.I use sendo x and for the price it is the best mobile anybody should have even with its numerous problems which could be solved with genius like u around.I can't imagine having sagem and my friend displays all this applications on his sendox am sure i'l sell it off at a give away price.Sendox competes conveniently with d likes of sony ericsson,d cores of nokia and not to talk of motorola.please i would mind if u keep posting this lovely info on how 2 make sendox the best or kindly keep me updated by mailing rotimi_olusola@yahoo.com thanks buddy its being a nice time learning from u and for that who needs an advice kindly buy sendox if u can't afford the expensive ones.Safe

@ rufai.
someone asked what phone is better between sendo x and sagem my-x 7 but theres nothing foolish about the question nor our humble attempt to let him and others know that there are smartphones, and there are plain phones and its a little knowledge between the two that determines what u end up wit at the end of the day. the whole idea behind a forum like this is to assist each other however trivial the issue may seem. and i really hope the info we gave really helped him to make up his mind what he wants. almost everything we know came from forums like this, and not all of us hav the means nor the time to scour the net endlessly for info so lets help each other and cut out the gloating crap. its insulting and unbecoming of an adult like u. so its not foolish its just knowledge.

Neo u are a champion. I live in Pakistan, far away from your country but i am ur big fan now . u helped me too much in my Sendo X problems. plz give me ur email adress

nice job man i just got to know i really need the firmware thanks man.please can u keep me updated talktoleke@yahoo.com

Hi guys , i think from my own opinion, sagem is better than sendo x no matter the features it has. Merely looking at it,i have used sendox before, but it has many problems.I will advise you that you shold go for better phone don't look at the features ehn

Sendo X is better am using it presently and it has spent up to 1yr plus with me bt only that u ave to remove the infrared because it is always hot
