i just got a sony ericsson z710i phone but when i turn up the volume on mp3's etc. it goes very distorted

i've had two older sony ericssons (z520i and k750i) before this phone and the sound was crystal clear - and this phone is far more expensive than both those phones!

If anyone has a z710i could they tell me if this happens to them as well so i know if this is faulty or not

thanks!

well the software on my phone is the latest z710i software. I dont think you can upload walkman software to it, can you??

and would that make any difference, maybe my speaker is faulty?

u mite have faulty speaker rather than software? could be worth just taking it to a local service centre (eg cpw) and gettng it checked out...

as for the walkman software u can get a cd off ebay or get it done online via a software download from the net, my cousin did it with his k750i not too long ago

yeah i know you can do it with the k750i as i did it myself but i dont think you can do it with any other SE phones.

after using it a while now i have realised that it actually only happening on some of my mp3s and some of the sony ericsson ringtones. I probably wont take it to CPW though as i'll only be listening to mp3's mainly using the earphones and its a great phone

no probs pal

its annoying when such things happen...the only similar thing that i can has happened to me is that the odd track on my ipod comes up grainy, and thats usually down to the original track ive burned onto mp3 not being of the best quality

uve got a top phone tho! the w710i is similar in most ways to yours, easiest phone to use ive ever had!!

I've had it almost a week now and its such a great phone i couldn't care less about the sound! (since it only happens on a few mp3s anyway)

I had a SE z520i and it was also a great phone so i knew i wanted another sony ericsson

i could have bought the motokrzr phone for around the same price, but my brother has just bought it and i have to say it does much better but everything else is crap! for instance the mp3 player is a java app and it actually has to load the mp3 player

Ive had a moto rokr (IPOD PHONE) and it was the only one that didnt load up the mp3 player, altho sony wise they are a mile better than moto, my old v3i was awful like that, really made listening to music appalling when it took a full minute to load up the mp3 player purely down to the fact i had a load of tunes in the player

ughhhh! long live the sony ericsson!
got my eye on a w850 now...gotta start saving the pennies lol!
