Issues

Issues are being reported by users regarding WLAN connectivity. YouTube videos do not play correctly on WLAN on some handsets. This handset also supports Bluetooth 2.1, but the A2DP profile isn't supported by the phone software, resulting in any stereo headset not being recognized. Furthermore, it has issues regarding call logs.
