I'v been through 7 units this yaer with Vodacom. Even received a unit directly fron Nokia SA. All suffered the dreaded zoom/freezing keypad problems. Vodcom has thus finally exchanged it for a Nokia E72 (Which I want to sell because my other phone is a blackberry)

my 6710 works perfectly now. i got frustrated with technitions that dont know what they are doing and decided to do it my self.
i CAREFULLY removed the screen and remove the copper plate "sensor" clip it with small nailclipper right where it came out of the phone.
clean the screen and got some adhesive tape wich has no chemicals that can destroy the phone and put the screen cover back on. since then i can use the zoom manualy on the side button and it works great.
besides the zoom this is the best phone ive ever had from nokia

Got this in Nov 09 and am now onto my 5th one, as none have worked longer than 4wks. I just went to check my current one only to find it has now totally died. I also have had major issues with all of them turning themselves on/off, zooming pics in/out by itself, changing alarm times from am to pm by itself. It feels like it's possessed. Anyway it appears I now don't have a phone so DON'T GET ONE OF THESE, VERY VERY UNRELIABLE, and as I said, this is my 5th one!!! My provider have finally agreed to allow me to get a different phone, now I have to find another....wish me luck!

What do you think of the firmware upgrade 031.22 06-Apr-2010 ? Does that solve our problems?

Also had this phone since Feb 2010 and doing the same thing. Zooming in and out by itself in camera mode, navigation, internet and picture viewing. The keypad is non responsive at times, but works fine in MXIT, which means its not hardware, but a software problem. Was in for repairs twice, but always comes back with same thing, even after handset was replaced. Don't buy this phone. You will regret it.

The 6710 is the worst phone i've ever had, besides the well known self zooming problems the phone seems to have the devil in it,mine zooms by itself,keys dont respond as i text,it lists every available w-lan network even with the feature turned off and then recently as though i hadnt had problems the screen light died and i can only use it when it wants to be used!why cant nokia behave responsibly and have a recall? Is that too much to ask? Toyota admitted and recalled their faulty cars why not do the same or better still fire the entire quality control staff at nokia! Ii'd really like to shove this piece of sh....t up someones ar... IM DONE WITH NOKIA ,THATS FOR SURE!

Today I got rid of my Nokia 6710 and traded it for a wonderful 2nd hand Nokia N82. The seller told me the Nokia 6710 was such a big flop because many people avoided buying this model.
Despite the disappointing experience, I will still buy a Nokia. But I will only buy a 2nd hand Nokia or wait 6 months - 1 year if I want to purchase a new model.
The seller gave me some tips when buying handphones & the rules apply in my country Malaysia.
1. LG & Samsung handphones hold the worst resale value. Reasons - difficult to find spare parts & expensive to repair.
2. HTC, Blackberry & Apple iPhone are very expensive to repair. Better resale value because quite popular with the businessmen.
3. Nokia & Sony Ericsson retain the highest trade-in value. Reason - very easy to find spare parts and cheap to repair.
4. Nokia N series have higher resale value than E series.
5. Sony Ericsson Cybershot series have higher resale value than Walkman series.
It is clear that a strong cameraphone from either Nokia or Sony Ericsson is a good bet. So while waiting for Nokia N8 to appear, I'll use my N82 for the time being.

> In reply to PJE @ 2010-05-17 10:17 from N9D1 - click to readI am also from South Africa and have just received my 6710 Navigator and your post and the others have put me in a state of shock - I thought the in and out zooming was a result of my 'clumsy fingers'. Please, please let my phone be the exception.

The zooming problem on the 6710Navigator is not a major problem. There is a small flex modification that can be done and the unit works very well after that.
