Hi All

I need little help as I m confused a bit over some phone (as i m buying 1 in the coming weekend). So far after my R&D, I have concluded there are 3 phones worth buying (in 8k to 12k range). Those are Nokia 5220 (Cheaper 1), Nokia 5610 and Nokia 3600. So I would appreciate if anybody can help me out (please send me the suggestion at karanyad@gmail.com)

Thanks a lot!!

> In reply to modifii @ 2008-10-20 05:18 from 2S}T"I bought it 3 days back, everything is ok but there is one problem:

When i edit 'Go To' menu and try to open 'Application List' it just goes blank. I mean screen remains empty exept for top indicators and bottom menu captions. On pressing any button it refuses to reply, only phone off button works. It does not look like hanging coz phone works on incoming calls. I had to restart it to get into normal mode. Tries many times even removing memory card but nothing seems to work.

Is anyone having same problem???
Any expert listening???? pls reply."


I had posted above post but now I resolved that issue by upgrading firmware from 4.00 to 4.86.

Also tried Nokia Maps for India, awesome tool for metro cities on such a low price handset. Best thing is it works offline so no data charges.

I will post full review in coming days.

> In reply to abhi @ 2008-10-20 12:10 from Cm1jTO abhi and anu, get mobile connected to your PC and let it synchronized , I mean install the software CD. Then remove your MMC card, format it and use it again. If the same problem happens get it to Nokia dealer.

Sound from one speaker is quite noisy some times as it is stereo sound. SO dnt keep it on maximum volume. It will add some crap sound. And its obvious bcz this mobile is not high end like N series.

1) Voice clarity of front speakers are not good, it produces noise.
2) Snaps clicked are not deleted, we have to delete it on goin to that location. This problem is coming when the loaction for storing images is memory card.
Do anybody facing same problem?

Else works fine.

Multy tasking means you can keep many apps open in the background and access them instantly without opening the menu.
This is available only in smart phones, such as symbian 60 or windows mobiles, gsm areana has quoted it out of context.........

> In reply to finn @ 2008-10-10 14:15 from PV2dYes, I agree with you. Noticed the distinct cracking of sound on my Nokia 5220 XpressMusic phone after upgrading the firmware to 4.86. Hope it was not intentional, and gets resolved in next version upgrade.
ciao
