@Sameh
Open the maps application and tap the spanner icon. Then tap Navigation > Drive guidance and select the language you want from the list. You may be prompted to download the drive guidance file if it isn't already installed on your phone.
All the best.

n8, 09 Nov 2011When will belle update comes of n8....?
@ n8
Nobody knows when Belle will be officially released for the N8. The time frame given by Nokia is sometime in Q4 which translates as anytime from now until 31st December 2011. That being said, it's not unusual for Nokia to miss their own deadlines so don't be too surprised if it doesn't appear until 2012.
Cheers.

@ celladik
You are correct, Android running on low spec hardware is a nasty experience.... more
@ Suhanoo.
You should have read my other post regarding Android running on a sub 1 GHz CPU. You can read it again by clicking on the " in reply to ..." link at the top of this post.
By the way, there are NO viruses for Symbian ^3/Anna.
All the best.

i agree with you those android phones lags even on angry birds(wildfire, g ace etc) android running on low spec cpu is like a hell of lags.. While n8 can give you better performance in the same hardware specs.

th3D, 05 Nov 2011N8 is a 50cc scooter with lots of bells and whistles and stickers saying GTXi and MUGEN RACING... moreIt looks like you haven't use an N8. 50cc scooter? I laugh at your comment. Scroll down & read all the comments I wrote today. Comment me back, of them which are possible in N9. I'm not telling you that MeeGo is bad, but it is a dead end. Unfortunately, Symbian is going there too (thanks to Elops).
Well, back to you, tell me, why did you think N8 is 50cc scooter? N9 has upgraded UI & browser, but that's that. Harmattan is a new technology whereas Anna is backdated (comparing to Harmattan). So you'll feel the better experience in N9. But that doesn't make N8 a scooter. Believe me my friend, use N8, use the features & you'll be in doubt which one to keep amont N8 & N9. Both are very good phones, no doubt. But the price of N9 is over-hyped & is not comforting me with the package it is coming to me (HDMI, USBOTG, Superb camera, xVid & DivX support out of the box, supplied HDMI & USBOTG cable are to name a few). I forot to mention the radio, N9 has the HW, but don't have the SW. So I'm hoping that N9 will have that too in a giffy. But what about FM Transmitter? N9 doesn't have the HW either. So, it will NEVER have the transmitting ability N8 has. If N8 was a scooter, then it wouldn't be so popular. Anyway, I can't change your mind unless you see both the phones side by side. So, please do that.

MdN, 05 Nov 2011Not really, unless you do the trick with changing the year in the phone settings, but that's o... moreNot really. You just go to Settings > Application Manager > Installation Settings & do the followings:
Software installation: All
Online certificate check: Off
Default web address: none
Now, exit the settings & try to install the SW you wanted to install. But i should warn you, it opens your phone to ANY virus (if attached to the SW you install) & just install the SW only if you're sure that it is not harmful. Else, the result may be devastating, hang your phone, restart it, even fry it.

N8 and me, 06 Nov 2011hi
Ray, Martin, Suhanoo and other users out here, I just got a doubt n wanted to share with ... moreI totally agree with you. If N8 was given more RAM, it would have been AWESOME. And in my opinion, Nokia shouldn't have left Symbian (also MeeGo) right when they were ready to fight Android, iOS & BBOS. Right now, except for the eye-candy, I can guarranty that my Anna updated N8 with a Mega power can do everything that an Android can do with a Giga power and more. By the way, the problem that caused my N8 to lag was in my laptop, which, by the way, was attacked by virus & was attacking my N8 everytime I would connect it. Now when my N8 is back from the care, and my laptop is free again, it is running smoothly again. I'm the same happy with my N8 like before.

Thanks for your input but let's face it the N8 is lacking in the hardware d... moreDear Ray,
Have you used those phones (Galaxy Ace & HTC Wildfire)? I used them & G Ace is very much laggy & Wildfire doesn't have half the SW a normal (1GHz plus) Android have. So, get one of those, try to install the following SW from the market: Google sky map, Ashphalt6 HD & lemme know if they run as smooth as you claim. Me, on the other hand, from a hand on review, can tell (read assure) you that you won't be loving those Android anymore (as they will lag almost on anything, if you run them on background). And please, I have posted a few posts here, asking you to clarify me. I request you to read and comment on them. I really need you to prove that I'm wrong.
Keep N8-ing
