This way I can truly judge the performance of each variant. And it isn't that time consuming too. I have a copy of all the installation files on my memory card and it just takes around 15 mins to install all the essentials. Fact is I don't like stuffing up my phone with crapwares though I am totally capable of unlike some other smartphone platform. But it sure does help others who doesn't like going through the pain of having to install each and every app every single time they flash their phones.

I want to let you know that you don't have to reinstall all the applications or games while flashing with JAF. If you are following the flashing guide of arun sharma, then just do this. Instead of formating the phone before and after the flashing procedure, just flash your phone. Don't delete the private, system, sys and resources folders as told by arun. I myself have swapped my phone's firmware a couple of times between aov and revenge and still my applications are intact. Although rhe phone memory doesn't increase as it should. If you have 20mb before flashing then you will have 20mb after flashing too. This method saves a lot of time as reinstallation isn't required. Try it...

I've recently flashed my phone (again) with Revenge^6 custom fw. So I had to reinstall most apps. This time around, i was a bit selective and picky about the apps that I installe on my 5233.
Here is my list of must have's to make up for a great user experience.. Bear in mind that some of these app may not be that eye candy and there might be better alternatives but anyway it's just my opinion. So here goes the list..
1) Best screen snap
2) Kill me for killing unwanted appa and precesses
3) Orange tsunami HS. The best HS according to me)
4) Alternate PDF reader
5) Landscape pro for assigning selective turning controls for only the app you want.
6) Quick office pro
7) LCG Photobook (the best and fast alternative to the builtin gallery and photo viewer)
8) Opera mobile
9) Symtorrent (the only and by far the best torrent client for symbian^1)
10)Panoman ( a cool app for capturing super wide panorama images)
11)SPB Tv (good to have an ip tv to show off with a few good channels)
12) Pencil app (a must have app which emulates the pencil button of non touch symbian phone). Pressing and selecting files or pics or messages will allow you to mark multiple files.
13) Bluetooth receiver for receiving files sent via bt directly on the mem card.

JustBought5233, 06 Oct 2010Hey sidewinder & sbdevilmind, after using my brother's 5233, i just can't resist myself fr... moreWe will surely help. But we can't if your question requires a lot of writing to do. I mean, just to write the names of the applications will take a hell of a time, and that would only be an answer to one question of the many you posted. So ask the questions in an arranged manner so that we could explain them properly to you.
The error you mentioned is not a fault of the application. The application is fine, only its got an expired certificate or it doesn't have any. So the first thing you need to do after your purchase is to get yourself a certificate to run all applications without any trouble. The details will be provided once you get the mobile in your hands. Good luck!

xpress music, 06 Oct 2010does the truth hurts? Yeah the default 5233 music player is useless, use 3rd party app to play... moreOhh walkman... Thanks for the jokes, you made my day. Thanks for showing us once again that you know nothing about what you are talking. I'm pretty sure you even compared the audio qualify of these devices using the default headsets. 5530 comes with a decent quality in-ear headset and the one that comes with 5233 is crap. That explains why you experience such a huge difference in audio quality between the two. Btw i suggest you read the review of 5230 given by gsmarena and keep in mind that 5230 was released after 5530.
