Aniketwww, 13 Mar 2011One problem-when i hold lock key flashlight turns on... how to disable that key? cos whenever ... moreYou can disable that by activating power saving mode..thats by touching the battery icon and selecting "activate power saving" , which will disable the flashlight (but also put into effect a lot of other power savers). As far as i know there is no setting for the flashlight, its a "hidden" talent of the C7. If you cant prevent the lock switch from getting stuck when you put it into the pouch, then activating power saving before putting it into the pouch seems to be your option. Anyone else has any ideas?

A real positive.

I bought the C7 last month. It's really a good phone... It's really a brilliant phone... It's got everything you want....
The only disadvantages are the sound of the external speaker when playing music is relatively low with hi treble and the screen really gets dirty by fingerprints easily... besides these 2 disadvantages, it's a great phone that i recommend to anyone

Want to know disadvantages/the parts you hate, read on:
1. Your a very bad boy for "restarting/turning-on" the phone.
If you try, hook the phone up to a nuclear power plant & wait 2 mins till it usable.
Now, just watch & suffer at the battery drop...you just feel so cheated and used.
HENCE, don't restart, keep the POWER, there isn't any errors on the phone that dont fix themselves.
2. The web browser sucks. its horrible. but your all sweet, go download Opera and it works as fast,easy,simple and flexible as chromium development builds on PC.
3. Because it lasts so long, you want it to last longer and its just not enough for u as it feels like it stays on forever, and you&your friends have gamed on it for 9hrs whilst you made calls and sms randomly between the breaks.You can't go back to other phones with crap battery life. Your stuffed.

Maverick75, 13 Mar 2011Good to hear mate..cant agree more with your comments and especially the cover flow..I have an... moreExactly. But its not true that nokia copied album flow from apple. Nokia was the first to introduce a similar feature in gallery of s60v2 devices. Although the name 'album flow' was apple's but if one compares symbian and iOS album flow then they give a heaven and earth difference. And the way the album flow of symbian^3 seem to come from infinity at 35° towards Z axis (considering the screen as XY plane) and the albums coming side to side instead of one over the other (iOS style), makes more sense as the user can see and understand all the far end albums. IOS album flow is difficult in the sense that unless the album photo is at the center of the screen, one won't know how the image looks. Now apple's album flow looks like a cheap imitation of symbian's.

Details of how to apply certificate or how to get them can be found by googling.
As for your restart problems, I don't know whats wrong. Maybe it has something to do with the apps you installed. For eg, opera mini symbian and swype don't get along too well. They tend to crash each other (low probability, but still...). I am not sure if they do the same with C7 but it did on the C6-00.
If you want to play games for long then I recommend you to keep the mobile plugged to the charger.

I finally got my hands on nokia c7. I have to say that its a massive improvement over symbian^1 or s60v5. Everything seems perfect now. No lags, no waiting..... nothing. The screen's sensitivity is just too good. Sometimes I don't even know I even touched the screen.
The music and video player intrigued me the most. The album flow is sooooo good. No lags and the implementation of kinetic scrolling is an added plus. One thing most people might have missed is that the tiny bar at the bottom which signifies the position we are at can actually be moved. So if we have to go to the end of the albums then all we have to do is drag this bar to the right end and all the album covers flow to the end with the smoothest of effect and slows down to a halt. Man....it looks so cool. Iphone album flow is nothing compared to the speed and usability standards of symbian^3 album flow.
And the video player.....all I can say is that it played everything.....simply everything I threw at it (of course videos).
Oh btw a new application of around 28 mb size has released. Its some kind of gallery app with lots of effects and transitions. Check out n8fanclub for more details.
