n79 really sucks
it cannot convince me that it is a 5mp camera.. it is the worst 5mp of all Nseries..
believe me!!!
for those who are planning to buy this phone,better think twice...n82 is much better

my rating is 5/10

    Only phones that are registered in Euro can be silenced. The other way to get rid of the camera shutter sound is to hack it. But it is very hard as the sound is to prevent upskirts .

    Secondly, you can lengthen the backlight by going to settings->personalization-->display-->backlight. to 90secs

    Thirdly, n79 rocks

                    hey. @ all users of n79. im sure u all have the same problems that i face with my fone... the major prob as we know is the backlight.... it goes off after 5 secs... we need to complain to nokia about it. on their website, their forums and also through their nokia software updater... we need a solution to it... so plz.... all of you complain to nokai so that they can get a new firmware put asap that will solve this problem... also complain about the problem of the voive mailbox num,,, it doesnt stay in the fone... it disapperas after a wyl... plz do it for ur own fone... thnx

                          what are the real disadvantages of this phone?
                          And what are or can be the consequences of it high SAR value(1.4)?

                            It's true that phone is a little bit creaky,but I'm perfectly satisfied with it's possibilities,screen quality. Picture quality it's not great,but it's good enough.I didn't regret the money!

                              today i purchased a N79 canvus white from the mobile store at kolkata for rs 17699. & when i opened the seal of the box to my surprise i have found a TV out cable & a leather carrying pouch (original nokia branded) along with other accessories mentioned here inside the box. I dont know why nokia didnt mention about these in their website.

                                      Hi guys,

                                      I'm sure that you know about this:
                                      http://www.polar.fi/en/about_polar/news/nokia_n79_active_adds_a_polar_dimension
                                      But did anyone of you buy it separately?
                                      I really like it but I don't know how/from where I can buy it. Does anyone has an idea?
