Love the phone. Got it cheap too (AU$350!), however I'm having a little problem. Can't seem to edit pictures. When I select an editing option it just returns to the preview of the picture. Any one else have this problem?

In reply to the guy that cannot send sms. I think what you should do is got to settings->personal->profiles->then select general. Hope that helps. The problem that I'm having with my 5800xm is that when I save mp3s/songs on the phone. some of them just DONT WORK! It really is frustrating. Will be very appreciated if someone could help me

Just try going to your text message settings and check whether your message center number is properly saved.

I have my N95 for almost 2 years now, It's one of the best mobile I ever had (less the battery life, but it's partlyh my fault), and later tonight, I'll get a 5800XM.

I really really hope that I will be satisfied with this mobile. I know and have already accepted that the camera (of course) isn't any better. I personally want to have a touchscreen mobile, after weeks of hanging out at GSMarena, I decided to get this one. And the ONLY reason why I chose this over the S8000, S8300, Arena etc. is because of the battery life. A very simple fact but is most important to me. ^_^

So maybe after a week or two, I'll tell you guys how I feel about the 5800. And I am really hoping to write a review on how satisfied I am.

> In reply to KceeGee @ 2009-07-20 06:00 from PMTH - click to readYes the initial charge does matter. you should drain the stock charge before you do the initial charging. First it should be charged for 8 hours straight with the phone switched off, use the phone until the battery is completely dead, give it another 4 hour charge with the phone switched off, use the phone till the battery is dead, charge it again with the phone switched off for 4 hours.

You shouldn't charge the battery while the battery is half full and also you shouldn't leave the phone plugged in all night. The battery will be fully charged in less than 2 hours and just unplug it soon after that.

Using too much of brightness on the display is also a reason for poor battery life experience...

Just a few questions, Ive been reading the posts but haven't read any tips about this...

Anywho, MOST said that their battery life lasts about 3 days... and some said 1-1.5 days... and a few said just 1 day. Im just curious, maybe this is an issue with the initial charge?

I just MIGHT be getting a 5800XM later (can't wait to get off work!!)

So just to ask, do you have any charging tips for the initial charge? Like how long should it be? should I drain the "stock" charge for charging? or any battery-care tips?

My N95 gets charge everyday because I think did not care for the battery properly.. >_< I dont want that to happen again.
