Guest o1honey Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 My goodness. So I went back to Sin Tat to get the sh01b after thinking about it and even though all the stores say they have it none of them actually had it in stock! o1honey, do they actually have the 9020c? I asked about that too and the stores did a bunch of phone calls and they didn't have it either! Now I'm stuck without any phone ideas since Sin Tat might not even have them now. Does anyone here sell any fully unlocked keitais? I'm willing to buy the 9020c online since Sin Tat isn't offering any help. oh they don't sell them =\ I saw a few stores that had them, but that was almost a month ago. This one store told me how the sh9020c is old model which sharp doesn't make anymore and it's hard to find a new one and mostly used sh9020c are for sale now... idk if he was BSing or not... but i did notice a lot of stores selling second hand sh9020c >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty much the 9020c but with 3G (similar to 0902C but without goofy orange buttons). I thought I saw the T923 on howardforums in the BST section (not sure... was just browsing really fast). You might wanna check that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emui Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 I found it odd too. Like they had the models etc. but when I went to actually purchase it they didn't have any behind or like none in stock. They called all throughout the mall and they made calls throughout HK for the sh01b and nowhere actually had it. It was really weird. I'm leaning towards the N-08A now since it's sold at canadajphones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisismyv Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Does anyone know where I can buy a USB cable for my DoCoMo P906i, or the CD? I saw two on ebay for like $20, but wondering if there's any other places I find the cables? Or, if any of you guys got them when you bought your phones. I'm mostly curious if you guys have them, is it worth buying, otherwise I'm having a really hard time getting music or ringtones on my phone. I've been using the Hardwarezone tutorials, and I can't seem to get them to work.. ><; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you need to set your system locale to Japan/Japanese or the Data Link application will not install. Hope you can read Japanese as well LOL.

aw614 Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 you can get a cable for like 5 bucks on ebay it doesnt have to be an official "docomo" one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisismyv Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Thank god I asked you guys before forking over $20 + shipping + 3 weeks of sitting by the mailbox. Thank you! Probably a dumb question, but do I need both the cable and the CD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tirahbunny Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 so what's good about these phones? i have a friend who keeps saying how much she wants a keitai phone but from what i know, they're pretty crippled in the US right? and most of them are just like flip phones... unless there are any smart keitai phones that has wifi or allows you to have a data plan.

Maybe we like nice looking flip phones and don't care about constantly needing to browse the internet while we're away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has multimedia locks to lock you out of using the camera and listening to music on it but other than that it's okay I guess. Some of the Japanese mobiles do pack a punch that I guess can be considered as cool features but if other don't see it as cool features then it's just bleh~~~ Some have CCD cameras that take pretty good photos as opposed to a CMOS sensor for phone cameras that usually take crappy photos. Hmmmm... Fujitsu made mobiles are waterproof on select models. That's probably one of the most convenient "features" on a phone as I've been rained on several times while mid-conversation. Thank god I asked you guys before forking over $20 + shipping + 3 weeks of sitting by the mailbox. Thank you! Probably a dumb question, but do I need both the cable and the CD? Probably not the CD. A bunch of my keitais all come with original boxing and CD that I've never touched. I've read the manual and all but other than that the CD gets to sit at the bottom of the box. Data Link software is handy but just far too lazy to set it up for it to run correctly. There's other methods to get media on the phone without the use of Data Link software.

thisismyv Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 ^ That is a sexy phone! I like the simplicity of it... not a whole lot going on, which is why I love ketai so much. Is that an older model or new? @IonNuke awesome, thank you for replying again! Sorry for asking so many questions, but another one.. would this particular cable work? It's the closest I could find to the DoCoMo one, so hopefully it's similar... here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L shaped travel plug is like the cheapo kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisismyv Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Ah, I see. So far that's the only one I could track down on ebay or monoprice, but I'll keep looking. Maybe RadioShack would carry them? Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest peppermintsugar Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 They are very expensive. I don't know much about that one, personally, but I'm sure one of the boys from HoFo would be able to answer it for us haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
