Softpadia is claiming that the France Telecom owned mobile operator is recalling the first shipment of Sony Ericsson W910i phones.

Sony Ericsson W910i

Orange customers are experiencing problems with their newly bought Sony Ericsson W910i phones. Apparently, the device has some serious problems with the basic phone functionality which results in switching off after ten seconds and not answering the calls.

Unsatisfied customers are returning them to Orange at a great rate, and the carrier is offering them a new mobile phone instead of the faulty one. Still that doesn’t seem to help, as many of them returned just a few days later complaining that the new device has the same problems.

It would be a shame for Sony Ericsson to blew this off — after all, many people eagerly expected the release of the W910i Walkman and now when it’s available they want the smooth user experience. We’ll see where this goes…

    My W910i phone turns off too… it is very annoying.
    Does anybody know whether i can still return it.
    I have only had it for a month or two.

    It also cannot send SMSes but can receive them.
    Everytime I try to send an SMS, it will get stuck in the outbox.
    Sometimes, when I try to delete it, my phone would say “1 or more messages could not be deleted”

    Can anybody help me please? I really need the help.
