its nice phone but there is sound problem, that is very low even its incoming calls cant be known without vibration. Internet using is good and other facilitis are also nice. Battery back up is also gud ultimatey in short it is a nice phone in very chiep price and providing the trust of nokia.

I did not try to install maps in tribute when i used it. But you can try like this --Extract the rofs2 of tribute with firmware editor. Now you will have an extracted folder in the NFE folder.
Now open nokia firmware cleaner. Using it, open the above extracted folder. You can see tick marks on the built in apps in the firmware. Now only tick the app you want to delete.(maps ). Click '+ 'button and then click delete button. It will say 'done '. Now close the cleaner.
Open the firmware editor now and repack the rofs2. Flash with it. Now you will be able to install the latest version of maps in your phone.

AnonD-542, 28 Feb 2011Hey dude, do you know how to change the katalyst^2 startup screen. It doesn't look good at all.....Well, at boot up, we have two images
(1)splash screen (blue nokia logo)and
(2)boot screen (hand shake )
We can change them within the phone so that no flashing is required for each time we change it.
You can change your boot screen using a sis applicaton. The name of the app is 'gif booting by oreo27 and crazygen final.sis'.Using that app,any gif files can be used as a boot screen. You can even use any jpg wallpaper by renaming it as 'startup.gif'.put it in c:/boot/
(go to daily mobile topic=15613.15).Worked fine in my phone.
You can restore default boot screen (nokia hand shake )using another sis app . (daily mobile topic=24686.0). Worked for me.
You can change shutdown image using a patch in rom patcher. Google 'symbian freak -change shut down splash screen '

And btw Nokia maps 3.04 works just fine on Katalyst^2.

I purchase this phone 5 days ago. it's video quality is amazing. but exception of some videos(those which previously storage in this phone like 'yuvraaj' or 'dabaang'song is really awesome) whatever I download from zedge.net or mobile9-that videos are just average quality when it's playing in 5233. i'm not satisfied with this type of average quality videos. so my question is to all of u guys-FROM WHERE I FIND GOOD QUALITY VIDEOS(CRYSTAL CLEAR)? please help me a.s.a.p.

AnonD-542, 28 Feb 2011Hey dude, do you know how to change the katalyst^2 startup screen. It doesn't look good at all.....Hi mate I haven't actually done it but here is a guide I've dug up from dailymobile.se. It's quite simple. All we need to do is use Nokia fw editor to open the rofs2 file and replace the startup screen with custom one. The startup screen is splashscreen.mif in resource/apps and shutdown is sysap.mif. You will need a jpeg to mif converter to get the job done.
