    Awesome list. I am new, but this is some good stuff to follow.

    Any insight as to controls available during fullscreen video? All I have discovered how to do is pause. I can't even minimize or anything.

    Hello David. A word from Karel (Belgium).
    Your site has been so usefull to me. It's amazing.
    The frontrow, the update,... my 750i and i got much closer :-)
    I still have a question: i can't take pictures or make movies with my camera without the shutter- and sharp noise. Pressing the # won't help either. do you - or anybody else - by chance happen to know how to shut it down?

    Thanks man!
    Keep up the good work!

    ps: i hope you won't change your mobile too soon.
    All my tricks and apps are actually yours :)

    To Karel: Some customized firmwares you can't shut down the shutter sound. You can only completely flash your firmware without customization.

    It's not so easy graham, in some customized firmwares silent mode don't kill the shutter sound.

    A GOOD SOUND FOR YOUR K750i

    Here's a good idea. Change your headphone / headset of your 750i with the headset of the SE w800. What is the difference? The w800 headset (named HPM-70) has a jack plug. You can listen to your mobile files with any headphone you chose. Very cool feature. Besides, my k750 headset was broken only a few months after I bought it. pff.
    So fellas, go new, go better.

    Hi David!
    My name is George.
    I need to know can I change system font smaller or bigger on my k750i?
    I mean, that on my country - Bulgaria, call numbers is in range of 08** 123456 and last number (6) is going on second line. And in different case - can I change font to bigger around 2 times.
    Thanks !

    When I receive an SMS the phone automatically saves it to the SIM rather than the phone memory. How do I stop it from doing this?

    Hmm I wonder maybe the address book capacity can be tweaked via FAR Manager?

    For the time being you can export your address book to an html page and view it via your browser.

    Hello David. Great page.
    I was wondering if you maybe know, is it possible to change the font size at reading SMSes to a bigger value. If not by phones software, maybe via patching?
    Thanks for your help
