Hi, it sounds like the N8 is either brilliant or problematic... My network provider doesnt offer an I-ph as an option, so its either a BB Torch or the N8 or N72, could anyone offer some advice on which to go with???? thanks

    After installing various software overlays like SPB mobile shell (which is great) I still use the symbian UI 99% of the time. Sure S3 may not be the best OS around but there are things that kind of pull you to it. Dont allow the rest of the world to make you discontented with your N8. Judge from your own experience. Curious to see what Anna will bring

        dude7, 20 May 2011Yes, I have that problem too!!! I think that is the windows problem... How to uninstall all ... more@dude7.

        Below is a solution taken from Nokia support discussions official website.

        --------------------------------------------------------------

        1. Disconnect your phone from your computer.

        2. Go to Add/Remove programs in the Control Panel.

        3. Remove Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver

        Remove Nokia Ovi Suite

        Remove PC Connectivity Solution

        4. Download and run Nokia PC Suite Cleaner from

        http://www.nokia.dk/produktsupport/download-software/pc-suite/how-to/nokia-pc-suite-cleaner

        5. Reboot

        6. Download latest version of OVI Suite from

        http://www.nokia.dk/produktsupport/download-software/nokia-ovi-suite/compatibility-and-download

        7. Turn off you AntiVirus/Spyware and Firewall(Including Windows Firewall if enabled) software before you start the install of OVI Suite- very important!!

        8. Reboot after installation of OVi Suite

        9. Do not start OVI Suite yet after reboot!

        10. Make sure your AV Software/firewall is not turned on.

        11. Connect your phone using your USB cable.

        12. The drivers should install without any problems. Takes a minute or so.

        13. Start OVI Suite after Windows reports that the installation was successful.



        Everything should work now.


        --------------------------------------------------------------


        The credit should go to Vesperillo if it helps anyone solve their USB / Ovi suite problems.

        All the best.

        Ray

                            If i get this can i do the tranfers of data from an E72.What i mean is an app called switch,,you put both phones linked by bluetooth and it exchanges contacts/texts/MMS/calleder entrys and notes from old device to new,,Thanks.

                            Its such a nice smartphone in solid aluminium ive seen it a few times in store but just started taking note with summer coming up that 12MP camera will works wonders.I have a digital camera but only take it to special evenmts.I have missed some moments not having a decent cam,,also e72 is only 15FPS video record @VGA so this would be superb update.

                            Who says Nokia is dead is silly ,i think windows 7 will flop and Nokia will do series 40 for budget,,s60 for midrange and Meego for high end.

                            Meego is a linux powerhouse by the way..Anyhow i am still supporting Nokia.Just had sgs s2 but its too biggggggg...It went back..

If the battery does fail Nokia will replace it under warranty. Please do not attempt to remove the battery yourself as that will void the warranty.
                                      The FM transmitter is disabled in some countries for legal reasons, such as in France.
