CECT I9 Cell phone Part 2

[Ipadboymatt]

I'm gonna buy one for my 5th brother as he wants an iPhone £49.99 I'll be paying 

[garikbabayan]

How do i fix power settings ? my power gos off every 4 - 5 seconds, even if i am using the phone at that time ?/?

[chuckmusic09]

DO ( WI-FI) (TALK ) AND TEXT) ( WITH PIC TEXT TO WORK ON THIS PHONE

[mfpmaxturbo]

@chuckmusic09

There is no Wifi on this phone at all, never was an option.

Text works, talk works, picture text was never tested

[chuckmusic09]

WHERE R U AT I STAY IN VIRGINIA BEACH WILL THE PHONE WORK IN VIRGINIA

[mfpmaxturbo]

@chuckmusic09

Phone works wherever you have GSM(T-mobile/AT&T) coverage at.

[inukordra]

Very informative. Thanks!

[corydicks]

can you download ringtones on this phone? and/or do things like msn messenger?

[OregonBurls]

I just got one. The manual is pretty bad. Mine says on the back 32 gb. Is that internal or that is what it suports? Thanks

[mfpmaxturbo]

@OregonBurls

It most likely means the max size of the MicroSD card it'll support.

[nessa6565]

anyone want to trade their i9 for 3gs?

[nikkih24]

Hi, I'm trying to input events on my calendar and I am not able to do so. when i open my calendar, it is just useful as a calendar. It isn't giving me the option of clicking on a particular day to enter text. . I even tried putting events in the note section but it doesn't register in the calendar. Do I have a defective phone or am I doing something wrong?

[mfpmaxturbo]

@nikkih24

Its probably just a poor design on the phone's part.

[nikkih24]

@mfpmaxturbo OK, thanks for replying. I'm going to send this phone right back to China.

[shadosayinx]

Does this phone have the "turn" capability? where you can turn it on its side and the screen switches to landscape mode

[mfpmaxturbo]

@shadosayinx

I believe it only does it in certain places like in the meida player.

[BbyFitri]

um hi, i wnted 2 ask, did u gfet this of ebay? if yes, then how long did it take 2 arrive, bcuz i bout mine yesterdai, but im not sure wen it will come. plz reply as soon as poosible. thnx

[mfpmaxturbo]

Yes purchased off Ebay. Expect between a week or 2 before it arrives as it seems most items that come from China take a bit.

[MrJeacock]

hi i was going to get one but im not sure if i should what is ur recomendation and how do u rate the phone

thx

[mfpmaxturbo]

Average...its a phone...it makes calls, it plays MP3s...not really anything special. You can probably do better for the price with a used phone.

[RaidersGurlX7]

i68 is i9 same but i have this phone how can i change the shaking wallpaper

[mfpmaxturbo]

Not a clue, you can try looking through the phones files to find the same wallpapers.

[nikkih24]

@RaidersGurlX7 You can change the sliding wallpaper by going to SETTINGS - GENERAL - SLIDING WALLPAPER and sliding the switch to the OFF position

[cjcogswell]

This phone is part of the CECT phone line. But isn't this one the i68, not the later model i9? Or the one after the i9, the i9 TV.

[mfpmaxturbo]

The phones look the same, this one is an I9

[J3ngl3f3tt]

can you add any programs to it. Like games etc. in the iphone you can

[mfpmaxturbo]

You can add JAVA only apps...so nothing like the iPhone.

[XxrobbyxX7622]

it has to be java. and most of the time not even the java games work lol. You cant have apps. and if you get the newer ver like i have it says file not found when you get an app other than that its a good phone

[tainapr711]

How can i find the pics and music that are in my memory card?and also how can i get it so when people call me or text me they names come up...

[mfpmaxturbo]

Look under the Documents icon. Don't know about the names thing, never used the phone to call anyone.

[lordsavemusic]

Boys, what do I do to upload music on to this thing! It's saying I don't have space! 183kb ! WTF. What do I have to buy now to get some damn music on this sucker! :(

[mfpmaxturbo]

Did you install the MicroSD/Transflash card? You have to put the music on there...but its been so long since I gave the phone away I don't remember how to.

[lordsavemusic]

@mfpmaxturbo

O so do I have to buy this thing or install it? Ya the guy on ebay I bought it from told me something about that when I asked him a couple hours ago.

If you don't remember though I can try and dig around for it. ;p

[jijinamalia]

question...what is the differences between cect i9++ and cect i9 +++ and which is better?pls...

[mfpmaxturbo]

Not a clue, haven't looked into any of the CECT phones since I purchased this one. You'd have to research that yourself.

[sharpeezy19]

When I Click On My Inbox It Just Has Numbers Instead of The Contact Name . How Do You Fix That ?

[RickyRicardo10001]

you need to save your numbers in (phone book) with prefix before them--for me ireland will be 00353 then the number--eng 0044(no etc)

[sharpeezy19]

I Bought This Phone . And When I Click On My Txt Message Inbox or Outbox It Just Has Numbers And Doesn't Have The Contact Name . How Do You Fix It So That The Names Will Show Instead Of The Numbers .

[RaidersGurlX7]

Question my charger that came with it is not charging how long does the battery need to charge and does the phone need to charge on the computer

[mfpmaxturbo]

You can charge it via the USB charger adapter or with the computer. The Charger adapter may be a dud, who knows. Think it took about an hour or so to charge.

[Vinnyb42]

Do you have to have internet for this phone to work?

[mfpmaxturbo]

Nope

[pcagulada]

i have a question. so can you sync this with iTunes? cause i want to put the games that i have from iTouch to this i9. please help.

this vid helps me in deciding on getting this phone. but i just need ti know if i can sync with iTunes.

[mfpmaxturbo]

It is a knock off and won't work with anything that iTunes works with.

[countrycutie6388]

I got this phone but I have no idea what setting it needs to be on. Another words I live in the USA and I have t-mobil. It said that it is compatible. Where and what settings do I have to set this phone on to work because I only get a "emergenccy call onnly" thing.

[mfpmaxturbo]

For me all I did was put the SIM in. Make sure its in the primary SIM slot first.

[reddorf]

oh yeah can u like flick across the pages like the iPhone or ipod touch?

[mfpmaxturbo]

Think it only has one page so probably not.

[SuicidalxFail]

Yes u can if u get a newer model or Better Firmware

[reddorf]

can u use your music as ringtones? im thinkin of either getting this, the i68 or the LG Cookie! thanks

[alexcm27]

can i use messenger, and office documents?

[stezz93]

how do you get apps on the i9

[mfpmaxturbo]

They have to be Java apps I assume, but not a clue myself.

[77MichaelDenby77]

do u need to use 2 sims in it????

thanks

[RevdUpChainsaw]

nope. one , but wait for it to get a signal :) i was having the same problem u c an see on my profile it says i asked that a couple times lool :) glad i can help:D

[ksmxx]

Nice video, I couldn't find a decent review anywhere.

[SuperDwang]

looks kinda laggy a little

[wogzii]

Great Work man, got alot of info of this video. Thanks again.

[naimae]

Thank you! this was a great video, not boring at all, very informative. I just ordered an i9+ i just wanted to get a good idea of what it was going to be like. Thanks again n blessings to you

[michtenn16]

tht fone sux i got it 2day:(

[DerTeufel0707]

it looks like its working pretty well. i'll maybe buy it. but it will be of course better than that mp3 player i bought from ebay(some china thingy, i bought it because its cheap and it had around 16 gb), it turned out that it cant play my songs i had on my old mp3 player and after 2 days i couldnt even turn it on. xD i wanted to message the seller and tell him about this, ebay said me that the account was closed. i give it a try(LONG... ASS.... SPEECH...). nice vid! :)

[Smoxa]

If you want to buy this phone, then buy it from Big box store, lots of poeple recomend it.

[mfpmaxturbo]

What store sells chinese phones?

[charlesdean03]

dude learn about the electronic that and then make the video the first one was a drag and it looked like you dont know shit. this one is cool (^_^)

[mfpmaxturbo]

I didn't know shit, instructions are in engrish and every other video is just people going through the menus.

[fishmaeg]

look like a nice phone maybe i buy it...

Can anyone say if that Phone great or something about that...

thanks

[biglou117]

the phone has a good few features, however it is not very good for having fun on. it only accepts java games which are crap and the phone can't play most of them because it has no buttons. NO INTERNET WIFI! only WAP which is utterly crap and you have to pay for it.

[imdabeast100]

is it paid off

[aaronsheridan547]

DOES IT HAVE BUILT IN WIFI

[JAYSODMG]

Yes but it does not come right away its tricky message me 4 further info

[orangutansrule]

nope...but the CECT T32 does....bit more expensive though....

[vietandrew1]

Do you think these phones are good?

[irishpbreviews]

will this work with at&a 3g

[sdc111111111]

have you been able to put itunes music on it? if so how can you show me thanks

-sdc111111111

[adriandance]

hey does the phone works whit i cell phone companie called cricket becuz the i9 is a TRI BAND phone.

[mfpmaxturbo]

Wouldn't know never heard of them.

[ppawriter]

Will the i9 sucks if you have Media net it wont work on unlock cell phones.

SO BUYER BE WEAR

[chaosdude1234]

hi i was wondering can u put apps on it tht uve download from itunes on your pc?

[ppawriter]

I see you didnt show the Media Net WHY???.... AT&T said since the phone is a unlock phone I'm going to have too find someone that can set my setting.

[mfpmaxturbo]

Because we don't have Media Net.

[FIGFUNK2]

what phone company you with

[mfpmaxturbo]

AT&T

[travistk55]

hows the battery life

[mfpmaxturbo]

Average

[Mishal040]

what is new in this phone ?? what best this or i168 ???

[mfpmaxturbo]

Couldn't tell you at all.

[MOCHADEVIL83]

is it worth buying? i all ready have a data plan. have you heard about the internet is it good?

[mfpmaxturbo]

Nope, didn't try the internet since I don't have a data plan.

[CDubb2k8]

does it have itunes?

[mfpmaxturbo]

ITunes is an Apple exclusive thing, this isn't compatbile with iTunes.

[hoIIa31]

how much do you think is the cheapest i9 or i68? cuz I'm gonna buy one next week...

and oh yeah...is this phone good? :)

[mfpmaxturbo]

The phone is okay. And not a clue about the price, its been awhile since I bought this one and compared the two.

[gergm]

Hi there. Thanks for your vids. I got a one of these i9. Everything works ok but i cant change the sms tones... do you know how do i change them? Thanks!

[mfpmaxturbo]

I did but I don't have the phone so its hard to explain, its somewhere under the profiles or something, its a real pain in the but because they don't label things like you would expect to.

[gergm]

Yes... I know how to change the sms tones, but I meant i wanted to put my own mp3 tones for sms but i cant. I just have 10 horrible default tones. Anyway, thanks for replying!

[dodoegg1]

cool video- was this phone bought off ebay? I want to get one off ebay but all the sellers are chinese- are they to be trusted or do they send a piece of junk?

[mfpmaxturbo]

Even if you didn't get it from a seller from China, its still going to be a Chinese clone/knock off of the iPhone.

And yes, the seller I purchased it from was a Chinese seller.

[ftwrunescapedude1]

try

easy_deal_2008

i bought mine of him.

(he only sells phones)

he has 6 negative feedback and thats it he has sold 1510 items to this date gl getting your phone.

[mffnr1]

can you jailbreak i9??

[mfpmaxturbo]

Isn't jailbreaking only for iphones? The i9 isn't locked to any particular network.

[bimbolino14]

can you put a 3,35 mm speaker plug?

[mfpmaxturbo]

You have to order a 3.5mm adapter off Ebay

[bimbolino14]

ah ok is it good or ise the touch screen working good?

[mfpmaxturbo]

touch screen ended up working just fine.

[Evolution835]

awsome vid man apreciate it alot im getting 1 of these for b-dai also does it ave WiFI?

[mfpmaxturbo]

No wifi, one of the other clones may have wifi.

[RandomGuy2012333]

And does it work for itunes

[mfpmaxturbo]

no it does not

[RandomGuy2012333]

Does the i9 phone have internet???

[mfpmaxturbo]

no it does not

[realherotay]

I appreciate your video. I'm wondering what service you were using while you still had the i9? Also, may I ask how the reception was? Last, while I assume yours included a 2BP camera, were you able to capture any good quality pictures you were able to either text or send via email? Thanks- Keymontay in VA

[mfpmaxturbo]

AT&T was the provider. The reception was decent, of course it had flaws in one area but none of our other phones got good reception in that place either. Picture quality with this particular phone was subpar, however that doesn't mean the other models with the better chips are better. But that is a risk you will be taking since I doubt any retailers show you the true quality when advertising.

[kispenge]

how i can put videos on thi phone? and avi, 3gp???thx

[mfpmaxturbo]

3GP format...but its picky and since I no longer have the phone in my possession I don't know much other than that.

[EthanJacques1]

it may not have gps but google maps 2.0is available for java use.

[xnoheart16]

I just got one, and I can' t understand any of it! How do you put it in silent mode? How do you activat the bluethooth?

How do you connect to the internet?

How do you put your music and pictures in it?

How do you put new notes?

How do you delete the chinnese games, they suck »:( ?

HELP! PLEASE! REPLY PLEASE!

[YorunoHimitsu]

Haha, weird sounds! X3

[sonnicheeba]

he just showed you how to set silent mode and ring tones phone settings , general , ....

[MasteredMitch]

Ok, thanks. But if I buy a New Earphone Converter for CECT i9 mobile phone, would I be able to use Sony Ericcson ear phones on it?

[orangutansrule]

if you found a sony ericsson to CECT i9 adapter then yes!

[MasteredMitch]

Hey, I just got one of these, havent recieved it yet though. I was just wondering... how do I set it to silent mode? Also, are you able to use mp3 as ring tones, message tones etc... Please reply. Help appreciated! Thanks.

[yldrouge]

thnx for da video got a lot of ideas about da fone

[HummersROCK08]

Is the mp3 player on this anygood???

[bilox2000]

use opera mini (best free web browser)for internet.

and use nokia 2610 wap settings to get best wap parameters

[CookieMoster32]

I have this phone and i love it!!! great vid by the way really helped me with deciding all my friends think its totally awesome!!

[ewoodlin1]

omg can somebody please explain to me in great detail how to add music to this phone i would greatly appreciate it.

[craigcreationz]

Also, whats the differnce between the i9 and the i68?

[craigcreationz]

Can you get internet on this phone? because I currently pay for internet with tmobile on my tmobile g1, but I'm planning on getting the i9, can you please let me know.

[mfpmaxturbo]

I don't think this phone will fit your needs since it doesn't look like it had a great browser.

[owlpot]

how do you get the webcam feature to work with the USB cable? please i need help??

great review thanks

[mfpmaxturbo]

When you plug it into the computer it pops up a screen with three options I think? Its been awhile, but one of them was Webcam, along with the other two which was charging and the memory access.

[amborsiabt]

by far the best review of the phone, Thank you!

[tonyspinningg]

Great point on bringing up which CPU your phone has. I hear that helps a lot in understanding the phones limitations.

[tonyspinningg]

I should be getting mine in a couple of days. I'm gonna do everything but internet with it.... pictures, music, apps, texting, etc... give me a few weeks of playing with it and I'll put up a video.

This is a good video but I still haven't seen one from people who own it and use it regularly.

[vatoloco200]

good work, thx

[woody13428]

there is not point buying this , waste of money

[KippTheKidd]

This was actually a pretty good review. Thanks for the info.

[uchihagurl92]

What format do the music and movie files have to be? Please and Thank you -CGP

[mfpmaxturbo]

Music was in MP3 format, it might support others, the manual covers that, but Mp3 Format is all I have. Movies I "think" can be in Mp4 format and 3GP format. Its picky on the exact format but i'm not good at converting 3GP videos.

[BLOOD1MONEY]

does anybody know how to use the internet on this phone?, i have a t mobile plan, when i go to the net it says gpsr not subscribed?? please help meee

[KippTheKidd]

You still need to subscribe to a dataplan with T-mobile.  It's currently an additional $20/mo

[BLOOD1MONEY]

i have a data plan already, but it still does not work

[Jouskaaja]

seems that the back button isnt working so good :/ but u can press the square to go back

[mfpmaxturbo]

Nope

[LancerFootball9867]

Do you have to have a special plan to text on this phone?

[mfpmaxturbo]

If you don't want to pay per message you need a text plan period, but no not any special plan just for this phone, it most likely would be the same plan as any other phone.

[lilleax]

hi, do you know how to get it so the name of the person texting you comes up and not the number? thanks

[mfpmaxturbo]

Nope, not my personal phone and my dad doesn't do texting since its his phone now.

[lilleax]

ive found a way its kool just got to put contacts in as +44 instead of the zero

[tylerjl]

This phone sucks have had it for a month and it freezes all the time especially in cold weather. calls dont come through sometimes the charger is very cheap. I would not buy it

[NKVDdevaint1]

cant get any service with mine, dont know what the deal is unless it the sim, but it shuldnt be, its a at&t 3g card

[dovaje]

Hey, this phone doesn't support 3g cards, only gsm. Just so you know.

[mfpmaxturbo]

Some have said it won't work with 3G SIMs however it worked fine with ours, but it doesn't support 3G network. This is a your mileage may vary situation it would seem.

[PennCoup]

Awesome video, but... can I change the background when it starts?

I'm going to buy the CECT I9 phone, and I want to know more about it.

Thanks ;)

[NKVDdevaint1]

mine should be here tomorrow, i wanted an iphone, but i got offersd a second chance buy now option for an iphone agter i bought the i9

[Chevyslam88]

scnursecat ...you gotta make sure that yuh files are in the supported formats...like: mp3, mp4, and the like...I'm still waiting for the arrival of mine....it ain't no iphone...so...I don't expect much from it....

[mfpmaxturbo]

Yup gotta either download them as MP4 or 3GP or convert them.

[scnursecat]

Does anyone know how to download music and movies and videos to this thing? I've been trying to download for 3 days with no luck

[mzmillion]

this is probably one of the best reviews, all the others, show music, the shake, and dialing, i was interested in seeing the messaging and knowing about how pics and everything work, I think I am going to get this phone.

[dillpick44]

i was soooooo pissed off i ordered this one thinking it was the real thing and now i just found out it wasnt

[CODYAUSMITH]

how do you turn the shake wallpapers thing back on?

[mfpmaxturbo]

Don't use the phone and none of us do texting so no clue. You just lock the phone(pressing the only button on it and holding it) and then shake it to change the wallpaper.

[CODYAUSMITH]

what about texting??

[academicscienceboi15]

wow i love the way it turns off!kool

[jameswood6662]

could you do another quick video showing the music player capabilities. If so i would be very grateful. If you decide to send me a comment through youtube. thank you :)

[mfpmaxturbo]

If I have time I will try and make another video.

[chelseadi]

please make a video whith the music player :D

[vkm89]

where did you go to adjust the touchscreen sensitivity? ---

I didnt think it was a boring video at all...i was quite captivated for both videos you made. I have to collect mines tomorrow actually, so a little bit excited about that.

[mfpmaxturbo]

There are two ways that I know of getting to the screen calibration. One is written on the battery cover itself, it involves holding the up volume on the left side till it displays "Press volume down to check" then press down volume and it brings up the calibration. The other is under 'Settings' and 'Pen Calibration'

[LiveLoveRockMusic]

does it have a touchscreen keyboard

[mfpmaxturbo]

Yes, but you would be better off using the stylus. I didn't try to use the keyboard by hand but the keys are VERY small.

[tonyspinningg]

Yeah, I've heard people mention that the keys were small on the screen but the keys are small as hell on my blackberry but I got used to it.

[ngsaytar]

hmm..

this is i9+ izzit?

or sciphone?

i9 dun hav touchflow system (as i know)

wat u show is way different from my i9..

[mfpmaxturbo]

It is a regular I9 as far as I know. I have yet to see any I9+s advertised on Ebay but have read about the I9+ firmware on the I9forums.
