Can any1 help me..please?
On my 5800 the phone memory is too low..I mean TOO low...only 1MB free space. I've tried erasing the web cache,cookies etc..but it doesn't help at all. It was on v30 so I thought maybe an update will correct this problem. But NO! it's still the same amount space free! So pls help me..my phone is like a turtle!
PS: All applications are installed on my memory card!

The scrolling and tapping issues have been fixed in the fw updates i.e. you can ks any type of menu be it grid or list. the touch sensitivity is as good as it may get. Email never gave me trouble at all! Ya, i too couldn't delete the headers! :( Don't ever use file manager, it is a crap! Use file brouser, or xplore. Most of the probs u have listed have been rectified, but the components are really fragile.. Ever heard of cfw?

The media key on my Nokia 5800 is stuck. There’s no problem when the screen is locked, I assume because this negates screen input. As soon as I unlock it, though, the media menu opens and closes continually and using the phone is impossible. I haven’t dropped it, gotten it wet, or installed any applications beyond YouTube and Shazam from the Ovi store. There is nothing pressing on the media key from the outside of the phone. Help!

I don't recognize some of the things you complain like the email having a mind of its own. I have been using the email client of the phone and so far i don't have any problems. and with the text message i think you can arrange it in the options of the messaging. so far i have this phone and a nokia e63, and i think they have same capability in terms of email and messaging

Guys stop criticizing about 3.2 mp camera. Its doing the best job a 3.2 mp camera can do. FW update cannot improve camera quality. If you really are annoyed with its outcome then buy a digital camera OR a Nokia N8.
While shooting at night by Nokia 5800's cam, Switch to night mode with flash on & always change colour tone to Vivid, It adds life to the picture.

The stylus on this phone falls out after being used a dozen times, because of wear to the internal clip. The stylus hole is on the bottom edge of the phone, so the stylus then falls out. Since the wear is to the phone's innards rather than the stylus, buying a new stylus won't help.
The wrist strap is anchored to a concealed hook inside the phone. The hook is very weak, meaning that the slightest stress leaves you with a broken hook and intact wrist strap.
Every couple of months the email app simply forgets all the accounts. This isn't a simple case of reconfiguring the accounts - it then tries to download all old emails from the server, runs out of space and locks up. Trying to delete emails it had already downloaded didn't work because it got "clever" and assured me that despite me wanting to delete them it would keep the headers because it knew best.
Incoming text messages are timestamped with the time of ARRIVAL, rather than the time they were sent. So when I switch my phone on and get a message I have no way of knowing how old it is. THIS IS PATHETIC!
The touch screen is sluggish and the interface laggy. The menu system is inconsistent... in some contexts you can drag the actual menu to scroll (eg in Contacts) but in some (eg Apps) this just launches the app you touched. The scroll bars are far too sensitive and all too often there's too much content, so that it's actually impossible to see it all as moving the scroll bar a pixel whips the content up and down whole pages at a time.
Despite having installed several software updates since having the phone, they do not take effect. The date of last update is shown as two years ago!
The screen lock/unlock is a slider switch on the side of the phone... a switch even more vulnerable to accidental nudges than a numeric keypad, rendering it completely pointless!
The sensor which tells the phone which way up it is works only sometimes - I have to gently shake the handset so that it notices a change in orientation.
The email app behaves differently just about every day - sometimes automatically downloading everything, sometimes only headers, sometimes going completely manual, and sometimes (mentioned above) all but uninstallng itself.
The controls for menus, camera, etc are all awful. It's been designed with one aim in mind: To make you press lots of buttons. eg. In File Manager, you can view a list of photos. You can tap a photo to view it. (oops - its DOUBLE tap this time... that's another seemingly random arrangement - insome contexts you double tap, in others single.) So, you're viewing a photo in file manager... Can you delete it? NO! Can you move to next photo? NO! To do either of these you have to... TAP the photo to get a menu, BACK UP to the previous level, THEN go ahead and delete or move to next pic. Imagine going through a couple of dozen like that!
To delete all text messages in my inbox is easy. To delete them from Sent Items is completely different. Der!!!
I could go on and on... even a simple thing like making a telephone call is deliberately made difficult. And the apps?? Wow! Imagine this scenario EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU START FACEBOOK: Tap icon. Wait ten seconds. Get asked permission to continue. Tap. Wait ten seconds. Get asked again for permission to continue. Tap. Wait ten seconds. Finally get into app. ooh - I have a message... tap to show it... NO! Doesn't work! In short, this is the WORST phone I have EVER had. I implore you not to buy one, even very cheap second hand. In my honest opinion Nokia and (in my case) Vodafone are breaking UK law by even selling it. It's not "fit for purpose."
