Now my review
The moment I bought this phone I started getting troubles.The camera was not great you can say it ok.The touch screen was actually knock screen.Sometimes it required to press it hard to get it working.The screen would get hanged every now and then.I got really frustrating as the phone was totally touch based.It has warranty for the period of 1 years. I took it to the service center.The guy there told me that its software needs to upgraded.He upgrades the phone and problem was resolved.Worked fine for 1 day and then callibration problem started .Again I went to service center there they took my mobile for 1 day.Then after fixing the callibration problem I received it back .It was working fine but when I thought of putting some Java based software I came to know that the application folder has disappeared.Then I again went to service center.They told me it is impossible.After much discussion which was of no use,I returned home.Already frustrated by this dubba worth of rs5500/-,I called the H.O.There I reported the problem I was facing.There they told me the phone I am using is non Java type.I replied to which the phone had java before upgradation.From there they called service center and ask them to fix the piece of crap into a master piece.The service center guy called me and requested me to again waste my time with them.I went there & they fixed it.Cool I got my java folder back but to no use.
I installed opera mini & used tata docomo for internet service.I got internet setting but the phone was unable to read it.So I myself set the internet setting in the setting option.It wasn't that hard.You just are required to set wap setting.After that I got a page loaded.After some hours it had callibration problem.So I deleted the software.For 1 day it worked fine.Then again touch screen problem started.Again whole process of service center happened.
All this things repeated 3-4 times.Then they told me that it is really crap and promised replacement .
After 1 day they issued me D O and I got a new piece from the same shop from where I bought this phone.The second same new replaced phone worked fine for only one day then again it repeated same hanging syndrome.Afraid of all the previous time waste.I went to mobile shop.He said to see the service center guy & if the guy recommend he has no problem replacing it.
Now I had had enough of videocon services.So I decided instead of replacing the handset I must rather change the company.
I talked with shop owner and he agreed.This time I bought micromax w900 touch screen window mobile phone and I am very much satisfied with this phone.
