GUys iam a very happy and proud owner of N8 with not i single problem..thou its been nearly a year of ownership..and my fone has gonew thru many falls and sme very nasty one and the color had become dull.........So i decided to change my fone body..i got a new N8 body blue color...and my org body was also blue....i saw the full video on youtube...i sucessfully managed to change the body...But then camera flash refused to work...i opened again..try to fit it well....but to my bad luck flash still not working..but red focus light was working....i will load all pics how i manage to change the body.......
then while putting the body back..i broke the camera button.....i was very angry with myself.......i had ruined my precious N8......i thought i had to buy a new one....i was confused get new N8 or samsung S2..i tried samsung..lovely screen and all, but i cant live without N8 camera, hdmi output,Fm transmitter,and my lovely symbian belle...and android battery is very short....N8 battery works for 2 days......Then i met my friend who works for Nokia care...and he has promised me to get me a replacement..with New N8...and iam praying i get it....thou i have paid sme amount for 1 year xtra warranty....he asked me if i wanter diff color..but i said no i like blue....in 10 days my New N8 shld be with me.....few days without my N8 and iam feeling lost......Guys beware if u plan to change yr fone shell.....Go to some proffess to change it..but be very careful while removing the flash....

Ray,
I have an N8 with Symbian Anna running on it.I can't wait for the official release of Symbian Belle and so I have decided to flash my set with Belle .But is it safe to install any of these custom firmwares available on the internet? I'm not bothered about the warranty and stuff as my N8 is almost a year old now, but I don't want anything bad to happen to my set because it's working just fine .And with the custom Belle running on my N8, will I be able to revert back to Anna and install the official Belle OS when it is released? Please help.
Thanks in advance.

purple screen is never a issue in my phn.. ya 1 of my frnd has the purple screen issue but he has nt yet updated his phn to symbian anna.. and in my opinion its not a matter of concern... bcoz now in new and even older phn this issue is almost fixed.. the all u need to think is can u get a feature rich phn like n8 in its price.... Nokia N8 is 1 of the perfect phn produced by nokia... like 6600, N73, E71, etc.....

Most of you know that I use both Nokia N8 & Samsung Galaxy S II. I have been experimenting with my S2 & comparing it with my N8 since my N8 came back from the Nokia care last Thursday. Now, when I tried to go to internet from my office (which has Wi-Fi connection & I have registered my phones with the network with the WEP key) in my N8, it uses the Wi-Fi instead of using GPRS/EDGE (I didn't have to switch on the Wi-Fi, it switches itself on & connects to the network, choosing the best connection comparing on GPRS/EDGE/Wi-Fi). But my S2 didn't do that itself. I had to manually switch on the Wi-Fi to let it access the Wi-Fi. Then again, after finishing the browsing, I let my N8 stay idle for say 5 mins & it switched off the Wi-Fi itself, but even after 30 mins, S2 didn't switch off the Wi-Fi. Now, you guys tell me (specially Ray Hipkiss), which one do you think is "smart phone" & which one do you think is "dumb phone"? Waiting for some answers. Any fandroids are also welcome to answer my question.
Keep N8-ing.

Whenever i am connecting my Pendrive or USB memory stick with the USB OTG adapter and trying to Copy an Excel or a Word file to N8 it always shows an error" NOT ENOUGH MEMORY" and then stops.
My Internal memory is having a space of 12 GB free.
Could any one xplain why is it happening and how to rectify it.
Thanks in advance.

There was a guy, he was not happy with the software of N8. I think there is only browser problem, but you can download Opera Mobile 11.1 (6.9 MB) or Opera Mobile 11.1 with asian language support (8.3 MB) from m.opera.com. It will also save your data usage 80%. It will compress data and whatever you supposed to get in 5 seconds you will get in 1 second. You will feel 500% faster speed. First download and install Opera mobile 11.1. Do the browser settings as per your taste and eye vision.
Open the browser. Tap right bottom corner icon, then settings and try the settng as follows:
Load images : ON
Opera turbo : OFF
Opera link : OFF
Single column view : ON
Full screen : ON
Zoom : 250%
Text wrapping : OFF
PRIVACY
Remember password : OFF
Accept cookies : ON
ADVANCED
User agent : MOBILE
Opera keyboard : NEVER
Connection : USE SYSTEM DEFAULT
After doing these settings click on this link. www.bbc.co.uk/news/mobile/
I hope you would be flying.
