i own sk17i from gujarat i have only one major issue which is at night when the phone goes in sleep mode for a longer span of inactivity even if its on and in sleep mode any caller from the other side finds my phone "switched off" but as soon as i activate my phone when i wake up in the morning again it resumes normally.
this is very problematic in case of emergency if anyone tries to call me at night!!!
thanks for your help in advance!

changed the sim card- got a new one.
updated the phone software
have a new issue - sms were not going through before the update, all my yesterday's sms are still in sending mode.
i m monitoring my phone for sleep mode and sms issue till tomorrow
shall update you thanks.
you probably need the correct APN settings
settings -> sony ericsson -> connectivity -> internet settings
APN are ok i double checked it with the carrier.
I guess replacing the sim should work .
after the new sim for last 3 hours sms are going fine.
will wait and watch till tomorrow.
thanks!!
will update you tomorow.
if the SIM card it's older than a year or two, it'll be wise to get a new one.
hi there...after about 5 days of observation:
1. sms prob is gone... its working normally.
2. but the sleep mode switch off issue is still there... suddenly the mobile starts showing the "service is unavailable" and after sometime it resumes again weird..
observation: during the service unavailble notification i tried to search my service provider all other providers were visible only mine was unavailable.
which is odd coz my service provider Airtel is top provider with great coverage.
is this antenna problem, software problem..???
will appreciate your help on this one
indeed it might be a hardware issue, you already did everything from your part, you updated your software, repaired the software, try different SIM cards, entered the APN, Got a new SIM card, and the problem persists
Contact Sony Ericsson
Try flight mode and you'll see new "features" like phone restarting..or other problems :smileygrin:
I don't have this phone, so I can't really test it, sorry
Maybe i need to reflash... also i removed like 20% of system/app shit but it was only shit..so it shouldn't effect phone... also i think it was happening with fresh install of firmware. Do your shutter button launches camera?
it does
