[dre@ms]

Hi Guys,

I came across this website which has the steps on how to use the shake feature in w580i without pressing the walkman button.

Here it goes.

1. Press Walkman (W) button.
2. Press Play.
3. Press down arrow (V).
4. Press right arrow 2 times (> >).
5. Press Walkman (W) button again.
6. Shake the phone left or right.

Shortcut - ( W Play V > > W ) - Shake shake.

Song changes. Cool isnt'it?

So why you have to SHAKE? Just put the next button.
I'm pretty sure that the keypad will be locked after a while of standby. At that time to press the Wbutton you have to unlock it first. That's the reason. I used it when I was walking and it worked just fine. I think you might have some trouble if you... run :D

it's a nice feature if you are sampling songs. but is there a way to go back to normal?
