If u r talking about me,I have already done that.And yes,I did install many apps & games.

The phone became very unstable,it would hang within 5 secs on powering on & then would reboot.I couldn'nt do anything.So I decided to reflash it with the official ver 15.But unfortunately,it shut down during the process.ANd now it wpnt power on......

I've had my phone for a few years, I work in the pc industry so this phone fits my style. The errors are usually due to me messing with it. I've got updates and manuals, I have java applets, chess and even solitaire, and have other programs that allow sending and recieving of sms, and mms free. I constantly max this phones capabilties. Outside of not having a wi-fi card, or built in GPRS, this phone pound for pound, or lets say ounce for ounce is untouchable. This phone is a tech's dream, if anyone would like assistance or is in need of software/information I will certianly assist.For the posting that's having a problem resetting the phone attempt holding down the ( # + *) as you power the phone on.
Peace....

This was my all time fav phone.I still have it albeit,its dead.Every one kknows about the features & its pros & cons.But I would say the biggest disadvantage was that it was Siemens.They really couldn't market it properly & then they shut shop.

I searched all over Mumbai for this back in Dec 04.I finally got it from an obscure shop in the outskirts.The phone was amazing,but mine came with an fauly charger.Forunaely there was one service center (for the whole city) & got it repaired after 3 months(yes thats how long it took them!).It was quite stable since then,excpet it would occasionally scare me wth those wierd sound at startups.

Anyway,in Jan this year,it finally died,the battery just died & even after getting another one(searching for one took me a whole month & an duplicate Chinese made),just couldn't revive it.Its locked in my cupboard.I did get myself an N80 though!
Sorry for a long reveiew ;)

Fenomenal phone, for ones who know what they've got in hand. For those who don't, well... Give it away to someone who can and will use it!!!

This phone is a freak!!!!!!!!!! very low quality key pad design. It firm-ware sucks!!!! Fragile operating System. This phone freezes after every 1 hour. Just it has a good FM radio. Otherwise Nokia 6600 is far more better

My phone is out of its guaranty period. When I switch the power button on,I get the following message: app closed main !
The phone then switches off...this all happens very quickly.
Has anyone else experienced a similar problem and if so can you help?
Thank you

I extremely hate this fone.. But I love the looks!!

I have the normal one.. I had to change the software 5 times the past 2 years!

It always got stuck and I had alot of errors.. and now.. I've got very important messages but the phone won't engage.

So, I have to go and install a new software which will make all of my messages get deleted. I don't want that. Those messages and calendar dates are very important.

Can anyone help, please?

One more question. I would like to change the cover to the McLaren edition. Can I do that? or it's not possible?1

As well as.. How can I convert it to the Symbian programming? and what is Symbian anyhow. I don't know anything about phones!

How can you convert the camera from VGA to Mega Pixel?

Is it possible for me to get the phone started without updating the software? and can I save my messages on my sim card?

Please help me.

Thank you!

when writing text messages, need both hands to hold the phone and type because of the layout of the buttons.
