AnonD-1845, 19 Feb 2011HEy expert plz. help me friendzz... i want a new fone today and m stuck between two plz. give... moreHi Mr.Oswal! well i wouldnt agree less with novice, sb and all others.nokia 5233,5230,c5-03..i hust went specailly to my frnds nokia priority shop today and had a hands on experience with c5 03..its very good better than wave atleast..its a very light model with 5 mp cam and all other features..i would rather call it an evolving 5800..i have also tried wave 525, which my frnd had purchased, i should tell u i wasnt really satisfied with the os, it yearn for more..and u wont believee me but after 2month there eas a software or hardware prob and the phone wont start..i also did some research on the build quality and it shows that all these 3 phones can take better damage than wave 525 in the long run..moreover apps for symbian use all the core processing powere thu swhat you really get is mart apps.
I'd be you id take c5-03, its got 600 mhz and ui is snappy moeover u can put a cfw which bada will be no competition against..and yes samsung service osnt the best around too.anyway let us know what you decide

If you want to stream videos then you should use real player. Just open video links through default brower and it will start playing(eg, youtube mobile). Bolt is very bad at displaying videos.

my answer is very simple man. if you had ever used nokia symbian phones in your life then buy it. it is one of the most trimmed down version of symbian lacking wifi,3g, gps, however you can get lot of valueable softwares and games. but still you have to sign most of them. lot of cracked softwares are available but you have to sign them with softwares.after then u will be able to use. themes are supported. upto my knowledge there are no themes for bada samsung.listen if you dont use wifi,3g,gps and camera for photo printing then do buy this. symbian phones depend on your use. you can replace your laptop with this. it can do every thing for you from internet browsing,video streming, pdf documents,ms word,excel,powerpoint, social networking, video playback, great music player navigation throuhg google maps but for all this you have to learn some easy methods of installing softwares and to get used to symbian you may require time. i am user of symbian from 2004. i am still sticking to it coz it has never disappointed me. all what i can do on computer it can do but it took some time to learn how. i used to operate my woofer system with 5233. i watch movies, listen songs and lot nore with this symbian. i never missed my laptop when i have this mini computer(nokia 5233). i would recommend you this device. once you get. we will always be here to help you in learning. and at last if you still cant decide.... then take a piece of paper on one side write down bada and on other symbian. throw it in air and see what are the results.........:-}

AnonD-1845, 19 Feb 2011HEy expert plz. help me friendzz... i want a new fone today and m stuck between two plz. give... moreI think you shouldn't go for Samsung. Reason is that although its connectivity options are good with Bluetooth 3 and wifi b/g/n, it has a catch. If i was to make a choice at that price budget, i would rather go for a nokia 5230. Bluetooth 3(B3) is useless unless the other phone has it. And B3 needs wifi to connect. Samsung's screen is the biggest downfall. Its bad enough that if you see both side to side, samsung's screen will make you laugh. Capacitive screen is a good thing but i prefer these feature are better suited for expensive handsets with brilliant screens. Furthermore, samsung isn't a smartphone. And that ruins everything. A friend of mine was very excited buying a samsung jet 2 with very good hardware and features but just because it wasn't a smartphone, he lost interest under a month. But my 5233 still intrigues me with news softwares and tweeks.
Samsung has no 3g, 5230 has. Samsung's video capturing capability doesn't come close to nokia's. And the fact that samsung wave wasn't reviewed by gsmarena should be proof enough that they are class apart. And without wifi hotspot, samsung becomes just another feature phone. And don't forget that without a hi resolution screen, web browsing isn't enjoyable. 5230 has better web flash and silverlight support too. So go for nokia 5230.
But if you can live without a superb camcorder, a powerful smartphone, a brilliant 16M HD screen, millions of apps and games etc and the customer service and trust of nokia then go for samsung.
Now, tell me what you have decided of and give us the reasons behind it.

AnonD-1647, 18 Feb 2011Well i flashed my fw to c6 tribute from c6 unleashed..isnt very happy with itim not sure why..... moreThe 'abruptly closing' scenerio of Tribute is what made me revert back to original firmware the very same day i put it in. Its not a glitch. Its an issue present in all C6 cfws. Default web browser, opera mini symbian and swype are the most affected.
Oh btw, i am now using a original v40 firmware (non cfw). Just hacked with install server.exe,

AnonD-350, 19 Feb 2011Dude, Can you send me that ttpod with skins ?Ya sure, why not.
Btw i just did the lyrics experiment as Sidewinder told and i have to say that nokia has finally done something useful to us. Also found another cool feature. We can drag (or scroll) the lyrics which in turn brings a line in between the screen showing the time that we scrolled upto and when done scrolling, the song plays from that exact same position. This feature i saw in Ttpod 4.0 but realised now that it was actually an inovation by nokia (for s60v5).
