Useless mob. Ph. Feature.
Hi to all,
My friend was given a Promotional Ph. as he is a good Customer of this Electrical Place. Gave it to me as a gift. Thankyou. No box, no booklet, just the Phone.
1st. problem ; locked into a certain Ph.Co. I wanted to use another one. yes we can unlock it for you $110.80. Jam that?.
2nd.problem ; Found a Co. in the UK, sorry we can't unlock it, got my money back.
Next UK Co.sorry can't unlock your Ph. Can't get my $A10.99 back.
PayPal could not help me, Sorry.
Found someone local, they would unlock it $7.50, Beautiful, Done.
3rd. problem ; Good Camera ?. Have taken 40+ Photos. Impossible to get them out.
No holes for a Cable to connect to the Computer. Dash. Walked all over Geelong.
7 Ph. places I went to, "Sorry it wont happen, will not Download Photos ".
Googled, Motorola W218, Review.
They were right, It will not Download the Photos.
Why oh Why would a Co. do something so Stupid ?.
Anyway the Ph. works OK, has a great FM Radio, but you have to use the Ear Phones for it to work, as it is also the Antenna.
I must be to old, can't get the Stupid things to stay in my ears.
As I said the Phone works OK. ????
Regards,
issatree.

It looks like a very basic phone. No Bluetooth, no email, no pxt. Not sure of any other way to transfer photos from a phone if there's no cable, so it might be that you can only view them on the phone and that's it.
The other day I described to my daughter how to find something in the garage by saying "It's right near my big saw". A few minutes later she came back to ask: "Do you mean the black one, the green one, or the blue one?".

How about re-setting your life, to just before the "gift"? Start over (reboot) from there, but without the "gift."
Might be the path of least resistance.

One would think so, but reading the product blurb it says it has up to 1Mb of memory configurable by the vendor and there is no mention of any other card.
My BIL had a phone like this - the (dumb) idea of the camera was you just took the photo and looked at it on the phone and then overwrote the pics.

I agree, don't you hate it when you get something for FREE, and it's not perfect! I hate FREE stuff at the best of times, but when thet same FREE stuff doesn't do what I want, I get frustrated that I spent absolutely NOTHING to get it!
It was a free phone, use it for what it's designed for (phone calls). If not go and BUY one that does what you want, then complan about it! Crikey, some people just want it all.
