Hi everyone. I think it is a great phone although the software has some major problems. I unfortunately, accidentally recently damaged my N78 when it was in my pocket walking. The LCD had black markings on it from the impact and navi key no longer works. The marks have since faded and the LCD seems fine now. The only problem is that the backlighting no longer stays on the minute the phone is idle it turns off. The only way to get backlighting to come back on is to lock and then unlock the keypad or alternatively go to the display settings and move the light sensor bar. The weird thing is, if I do a hard reset (*#7370) The phone behaves as it orginally did, the backlight works and so does the navi key. But the minute the battery dies its back to the same issue as I mentioned at the top. I have bought a replacement LCD and want to replace it, if necessary. Has anyone had to do a LCD replacement themselves and has this every happened to anyone else?

hey guys using N78,
i have a question. i wanted to check the microphone prob with nokias. those who have n78, please do this and tell me yr experience.
call up customer care or any free of cost no. after the call starts, mute using options--> mute. now go to recorder (i think in settings/ applications), press record to record yr call. now just say something..."hello.. hello.." for some time and then hangup. now check the file that is recorded, go to gallery, refresh it and then in sound clips find the recording and play it. we had muted our microphone, so there should not be any "hello... hello" in the recording. please tell me what did u find.
all phones nowadays have digital mic in them. so when u record a call with mic muted, the caller wont hear yr sound but the recording will catch up all the surrounding sounds. this is not the case with n73. n78 and n79 (as told by nokia care)
Plz guys and gals, help me find a clean recording abled phone.

ok...so after you reading everyone's rants about the Nokia N78, I decided to write a short review regarding it..since I've been an avid user of the device for over 2 years now.
1) Design: The device is modestly built. It might not be for everyone. You either hate it..or your love it. It's as simple as that.
2) Exterior functionality/Build: So it seems like everyone's biggest problem has been with the keypad. True, sometimes the buttons are hard to click but once you get use to it, it's all gravy. Sometimes I have trouble pressing on the different buttons on the keypad. It seems like Nokia built the buttons too compact together. Again, it takes a while to get use to There's definitely useful buttons on the side such as shutter, and zoom in/out. To tell the truth, the back cover for the battery of the phone has been troublesome since day one. It just doesn't seem like it fit right and keeps moving up and down. That's my most disappointing upset about the phone. Other than that problem, the phone is pretty solidly built and the screen is quite nice and bright for a phone from 2008.
3) OS: Nothing much to say here...Symbian OS...let's just say it does it's job and leave it at that.
4) Camera/Video Recording: decent camera for a phone from 2008. You got your 3.2 MP in the back and a VGA front facing camera. The 3.2 MP camera takes decent photos. Can be shaky at times. I do warn that the flash is very bright and at times annoying at night. However, all in all, the picture quality is quite good. Nothing much to say about the video recording. Quality is also decent and viewable. Nothing spectacular.
5) Call Quality/Sound: Very good. Haven't had any trouble with calling and receiving. Calls are relatively clear and reception good in most places.
6) Audio/Speakers: Very good. Needless to say, one of the phone's best qualities are the speakers. Very loud and can be heard at the other end of the room. Nokia built the speakers very well and are probably evenly matched with the smartphones coming out these days.
7) Software Functionality: I bought this phone knowing that it wouldn't really be a smartphone. You have a phone which is in between a feature and a smart. Your able to connect to wi-fi but it's just too damn slow to really do any surfing. Surfing the net, GPS, and downloading apps is laggy at best. There are limited apps which Nokia offers. Lots of games though. The most I play is Tetris.
8) Battery Life: Really good. After 2 years of non-stop use, I'm still getting a good 2-3 days on one charge. At the beginning, it was almost 5 days on one charge. I'd say I still charge less than someone with a smartphone, so it's quite decent still.
9) Conclusion: After using this phone for 2 years, I'd have to say that it has gotten the job done. When needed, I've been able to make the calls, and take the photos. There hasn't been any problems with the phone over heating or shutting down by itself. I am still a bit cheesed about Nokia's build quality on the back case. I do have to also note that the phone is starting to become a bit slow and getting on my nerves. It takes a good 2-3 seconds to open contacts or text messages. So the reality is, I'll be needing to upgrade some time soon.
