Stupid me, 07 Aug 2013I really like your term "capability". It is an AWESOME little gadget that can do so ... moreMost reports say it's true - charge it whenever you can. Li-ion batteries have a longer life if they are always around 3/4 full, and can be damaged if you run them completely empty and leave them like that. Also, always try to charge it fully, until the charging animation stops. Of course, once in a month or two you can empty it completely and then fully charge it all the way - it's for battery level monitor calibration.

But for sure it cannot connect to a network without knowing it's password:). So, the bottom line is that. When you give a password for a network, the phone will know The particular network as KNOWN and will be connecting automatically whenever you are receiving signal from it. But will not know other passwords and networks without giving their passwords.

AnonD-131418, 07 Aug 2013today i get a new nokia n8..how to make wifi is connect automatically..?my nokia required pass... moreOh! Good for you! We'll learn together. Always nice to have company!!! This phone will exercise your brain, guaranteed!
For wifi: Settings/Connectivity/WLAN. Try whatever shows up. My wifi is permanently "on" and it comes on only when I am using it (for browsing etc). I have wifi at home so that helps.
I had a little trouble getting the hang of it the first few days. I use data on demand (from my prepaid money) and that is the extremely rare occasion. Not tying up my foot with any data plan/contract.
Don't go into F Secure at all!!!! Nothing in there to interest you either. GOOD LUCK!

Carol, 06 Aug 2013Yeah, sounds like new after a factory reset:)). Anyway, to see what maps you have installed, y... moreCarol! Carol! Carol! I have a bone to pick with you, dear!
I was in the menu going to App Stop to close off the running applications when my eyes fell on the Map Loader icon. I went in out of curiosity and there were all my maps listed plus the options to download etc. I did not have to go into Maps at all! I could have just used this shortcut. I think that is what I had used, but that was sooo long ago :-).
Oh! When, when, will I learn this MARVELOUS gadget inside out??? Hm! By next week, it'll be out of my mind and forgotten again, I'm sure! But I hope not!

Mannix, 07 Aug 2013N@QK I absolutely agree with you, i had Android 4.2 jelly beans it was nice and have millions ... moreI really like your term "capability". It is an AWESOME little gadget that can do so many things!!! I find it particularly useful that I can just plug in the flash drive cable, attach my flash drive and access my stuff. It's the nearest thing to walking with my computer :-). And the flash drives are so conveniently small now! 11/4" is no sweat at all. I probably have to worry more about losing them than carrying them.
Haven't tried the earphone yet. I'll compare the one in the N8 box with my headphone and hope for the best.
I read somewhere that these batteries "thrive" on top ups which in itself can extend the life. So I don't wait for it to go down to the warning alert. I give it a charge every night. Apparently, it likes a quick zap during the day too!!! Maybe the pros can comment on this because I am only reporting what I read.

But it's a phone one of its kind and affordable i wonder why Nokia stopped it production and jumped to the most disappointing Lumia which lacks touch and break down any minute!

I connected my phone to the TV in my room (anyone reading this, yellow is "video" and the other two are "audio") and played Rally Master Pro for an hour. Managed to break some records too. :-D
Games with accelerometer make much more sense when the whole screen isn't moving. :-)

MdN, 06 Aug 2013Well, the whole map of my country takes just 192 MB :-) that's less that one movie, for exampl... moreAha! You had me fascinated about how you found out the size of your map. Well I slo-o-owly figured it out after some hours :-) and fruitlessly looking all over the phone. All I had to do was go through the process again, as if I was downloading them and voila! So we're looking at a mere 17mb. All my four maps together total 116mb(less than your country). So, I'm paying a little more attention to mb & gb now even though my concept of them is rather vague.
Seems to me that this little "beast" as someone called it, has enough memory to hold quite a number of maps, plus a ton load of apps and games and a few videos thrown in. Don't think I can ever fill it! Hope you find your stereo recorder app. Hey! I am totally dependent on the sound recorder. Can't read a note of music. I wish there was an app that can could tell you the note and the chord for it.

Would be interesting to play a bit. i also played games on the big screen. Does a nice job, just one bug is that you don't feel what the hack are you pressing. So only games like NFS can be played without problems, at least until you get used to...
