      !!
      my n79's er vertical button on the keypad fell off!!
      what do i do?
      i can say that it is a pretty pointless button since you can still access everything in the menu, (it is a shortcut)but i really want it back on the keypad since the phone gets terribly ugly whenever i see the button missing..
      i doubt that using glue or mighty bond is safe, so should i just bring it to nokia care?
      i've only had it for a few months, and the warranty receipt is still with me..

              I regularly backup my N79's phone data to my memory card using the file manager every few days. The other day I did a hard reset, and as expected I was able to restore my phone data from my MC with no trouble. But when I tried to back up my phone to my MC as usual some time later, it wouldn't work! It kept saying, 'Memory full. Close all other applications and try again.' But no other apps were running! I've been trying ever since, to no avail.
              When I checked my MC on a computer, the folder where the backup file usually goes is empty, but a file is supposed to be there. How do I get that back? It seems my phone couldn't generate a new backup file.
              Any help please? Thanks.

                        This one is the best to use and understanding features is also very easy,in fact a total beginner will also not have any problem using it.Just takes some time to switch on...rest everything about the phone is perfect.

                                will cut straight to the point!this phone is marvellous with its wifi,edge,awesome sound quality,picture clarity nd its cheap price.this is a dream phone for any phone lover.BUT, there is a problem which i think was why nokia had to stop its production,its keypad goes bad after a while.Of course not in all n79 phones,but whoever is unlucky to land a potentially bad keyboard would inevitably have to change it and pray the new keyboard is also not a potentially bad one.
                                i have d phone nd unluckily have landed 3 bad keyboards in a row.i see all d great features,but mostly unable to use dem cos of d keyboard.i m still working on getting a 4th keyboard(which costs 50 dollars each),maybe will be lucky......
                                MY ADVICE- RIDE UR LUCK!!!!!

                                  The n79 is good i just wonder if people know how to use it...it is a fantastic workhorse but with good multimedia..All fones can hang i even have a fairly top gaming computer not the best by any means but fairly high powered and that can still crash..The biggest cause of hanging is low RAM so be sure to exit apps your not using,,reboot your fone at least once a day to clear out heavy browsing junk and clear cache which fills up..Keep your fone updated and spring clean it cause just like a computer temp files caches all build up and clog the system..My mates i-phones crashes so does my touch pro 2 ,n958gb,,n82,,n900 and hero,,i am tech geek but even the best smartphones need some help to keep fresh and uncluttered..
