Same here buddy with real player. try using emtube if u want to watch utube videos on phone but on edge I am not able to download big files anyways.


@meh

It is surprising. When my 5700 discharge completely and I charge it:

Screen automatically Flashes showing charging bar changing but phone does not start.

When screen goes down again I start 5700 by pressing the top button, screen flashes & phone starts smoothly.

Nothing happens to me like u describe.


@masud
My PC Suite version is 6.85.14.1. and its latest I assume but I still verify this.

Is it possible to play you tube videos on this phone using real player?
Every time I select a video to play on the phone real player pops up, it says connecting then the great disappointment, "unable to connect" Do I have the wrong streaming settings or something. Please Help!!!

Hey aditya, are you from india?
I'm from india. My firmware is 3.27. Is there any update for me? And the production of 5700 has stopped? Because my friend went to buy on my recommendation but the shop keeper said that the production has stopped for 5700

Anybody using Nokia Music Manager to convert files from MP3 to AAC or M4A with success.

Every time I tried this. Nokia music Manager closed with out any message.

I am trying this on Dell Optiflex GX620 with windows XP SP2.

@Shiva

twisting mechanism is very stable, no problem found in 4 months.

I did not possess walkmen phone so can not comment/compare directly but if you are looking for some mega bass or loudness than this is not for you. I have used my home theater system with this phone & this phone produces simply great sound. bottom line is sound quality is excellent from phone but rest depends upon which headset/external speaker u r using. HS44 are fine if not great.

Mobile is really fast comparing to previous symbian phones & yes u can shoot photo without twisting but ur camera will be pointing at side obviously.

@Jamal

GPS you saw is an app which needs a external GPS receiver & is trying to connect that via bluetooth.

Can’t access phone memory via USB - I never felt the need for same yet.

Scrolling through music player with joystick freezes constantly - Not True(checked with 3.27 & 3.83)

No gallery slideshow - can achieve third party apps

Unattractive flashing of the screen when certain apps. are selected. - Not Found

Not compatible with all apps. -
It is compatible, provided that the app you are trying to install is for 3rd edition & not needs ngage or accelarator.

Camera in low light is inadequate. Completly agree.

& Browser connection fails constantly {or is it just me} - definately not a problm, may be a provider issue.

@Jamal:
Maybe the uncompatible aplications are fpr earlier Symbian versions, that's the reason I think, you need to install S60 3rd edition applications in order to work on your phone
