You know what? i missed the notification widget of symbian anna.. That widget is really awesome, it's cool to have it on your screen and when you play a video a small box will appear on top as a preview of your message.. I missed that.. I want to have it back! Do you know how?

Mine is black and I have no worries about the back cover cause it's made of stainless metal and it doesn't have any scratch yet for a couple of months now.. Anyways you can buy some soft gel cover or hard case cover online.. They're good!! :)

Does this shiny plastic around camera gets scratched easy?
I got my 808 few days ago and i am happy with it but i think that this shiny part will get scratched no matter how careful i am. When i put my 808 on table it's standing on that part.
I wish it was other kind of plastic around camera.

Holala,that is what is called a camera phone. Im so fascinated i cannot be without it for a second. The camera is superb i could take a picture in pitch darkness of my living room. Hey, Nokia should stop the idea of throwing symbian into the gutters.

I am going to buy Nokia 808. I always search and read reviews and ta... moreIf you already have enough info about this phone, then what you need is to listen to your heart and follow your heart - coz your heart won't tell you lies.
As for me, I don't regret buying 808. I don't care about Symbian because I know Belle is a mature form of Symbian and it is a good OS.
I don't care if Nokia doen't support Symbian anymore because I know all types of OS inside any phones in this world will eventually be dead after approximately 2 years (simply no more update from any OEMes). Think it wisely and take a look at Lumia 610, 710, 800, and 900, they are all already dead in less than 2 years. Do you think these WP phones will get updates to WP8, Portico or Windows Blue...? No way..! The same story is true with all other Brands and types.
What matter most to me is that I like this phone and enjoy it very much. This is the phone that I'm looking for. That's enough for me.

Hi Carol and others...
I am going to buy Nokia 808. I always search and read reviews and take decision and I feel nokia 808 is an All-In-One Gadget. Camera, Audio, Touch, 4", Memory Card, Looks different and High quality hardware.
I know that nokia will not support symbian anymore. And i feel they dont release any major updates for nokia 808.
Lumia is on the market but Win 8 still not stable like Win 7 and its dropping in the market. So lumia will not be success because of the OS (I feel but not sure)
I just want to know my decision is correct on buying "Nokia 808" at this time?

AnonD-2665, 04 Apr 2013oh then u can help me, tell me how to manage when phone doesn't respond for a long time or res... moreI hoped that you will search this forum for the solution cause i said that i already posted many tims how to fix some problems. I am on my phone an i cannot help you with adresses. You will need to search for them in this forum. Anyway, your problem is cause of the system. Something is not right there. Just backup your data (only the important stuff: contacts, messagest, notes, that's about it). Do transfer your mass storage files to a memory card or in your pc ( do not save any apps or settings in this proccess. After everything is done, first do a factory reset: in call area dial ”7370" wait for the feedback, give your security code, if you have any, and hit ok. Your phone will restart and everything will be deleted. Formating process will last from 5 to 10 minutes. In this time, your phone will keep loading or will show only nokia logo on a black background. After everything is over and your phone starts, plug it in your pc (in nokia suite mode) let all the plugins to install then reinstall your firmware. If this does not work. You will need to do a flash with phoenix. This kind of solves them all. For phoenix flash please refere to google. Look for: flashing nokia 808 with phoenix 808fanclub. This is a tricky business but if you are good you can do it with no problems:). I you do feel like doing this, then just take it to nokia care, they will fix all your problems. After fixing it, try to be careful with the apps you install. There are many useless an crappy in the maket. Hope i could help...

AnonD-2665, 02 Apr 2013now I don't wish to use this phone except for camera and music ! So I am deleting all apps/the... moreYou know, there is a saying: If you don't know,don't use them! My brother-in-law, who has no clue what a smartphone is had always recieved on contracts only Nokia smartphones, this was before this touchscreen trend. Anyways, he always managed to make them freeze and going crazy (funny part is that i never managed to do that with the same phones). After only 2 days he got them soled (is to big, is to dumb, he never understood that the problems is his, in fact, and not the phones) If you think switching to other systems will solve the problem, think again! Android is not better then symbian and ios is no way near, they are quite worst. But there are people who know how to maintain and manipulate operating systems and there are people who don't know that. There are people that don't sacrifice anything for nothing in there phones and, like my self, are keeping them in constant stress without getting any freeze or restart. And there are people who just don't understand the using of a OS, making this systems useless. The only difference here are the apps. Which are more powerfull on other platforms and not so well done for symbian. In nokia store there are many crappy useless apps (i'm not saying that android's/ios are not having crappy apps, but in those stores are just many, way more apps then in symbian store) and with this small number of apps they shouldnt afford to let crap inside. We should have only great premium apps... Anyway. I always explaind to people how to flash their devices for a better performance. Wy don't you give it a try and see if there is a difference. If others have no problems, you shouldn't have either.
FOR THE REST OF YOU GUYS. There is a new extreme beautyful and fast theme called jb hybrid by blade. Give it a try and support the developer if you like. I wish you all a nice superb day. Chears.

But if you really have a bug, it's worth trying to bring your phone to Nokia Care Center, and show them the print out from this link:

I make themes using carbide ui and I try it on my phone, so when I have to delete it I need to go installation manager !
I have 3G connection of 500kbps speed but still when I open nokia store it shows that circle for long time !
Anyways I have solved problem by deleting everything except songs and few apps ! I m not looking for s4 or any other but just a stable phone ! Little lag is ok I can adjust but it's too much when I have to remove battery ! Bye tc !
