Anonymous, 23 Mar 2011Yeah, but you shouldn't have to do that just to stay in communication. It's very similar to th... morei dont undersrtand wat you mean..
yes both the N8 and X6 should have capastive screens. so ur saying x6 have the same problem? probably...
no, you dont need a pencil or a program to lock/unlock the device ..
and finally, i think u recommended the "E7", E7 should have the same problem..(i dunno, but im guessing)
the problem is "just" annoying.. its not THAT big of a deal, once ur used to it, i certainly wont trade my N8 for any other phone JUSt coz of that.. :)
but i agree, its annoying, and a silly mistake, and nokia should of fixed it before launching the device, i dont know how/why they missed it out..

Me too so disappointed with N8's proximity sensor. I got my calls dropped several times.

It's very similar to the X6 in this disadvantage. Let me guess if your locking system is slid like the X6 you need a pencil or app to lock it? I owned a X6 for about 7 months before trashing it and i'm still paying for the plan for it. Better of buying an X6, unless you want that keyboard i think it's this phone and the high resolution's camera.

dear Nokia company . I'm always interested in buying Nokia phone for my favorite but I'm very disappointed with Nokia N8 because its sensor does not work well when i was making conversation my cheek touched to the screen then it disconnected my conversation sometime call is on "hold" then i tried to glance at my phone screen i just knew that the ear sensor so bad. So i think Nokia N8 is the worst ever in my life.

Dear all friends,
I was not really disturbed by this so called AMOLED defect because I really didn't experience such a huge difference in my cell... For an example I saw the Grey and black just like they are and not like purple... But in certain cases (such as movie trailer etc..) I saw this purple issue but very rarely and not noticeably... (I'm saying this very honestly not because I love the mobile...)
However I still understand there are some other users out there who're not really lucky as me and they've got defective screens which are ridiculously reddish and purple... I saw some videos and photos and yeah.. It's quite an issue...
I updated my firmware to PR 1.2 yesterday night and surprisingly noted that my very small purple problem, it also has disappeared completely...! I ran the movie trailer immediately and it has no purple issue any more.. not even as tiny dots which I saw before...! I'm very much pleased with this result and just wanted to share this experience with you guys..
Those who're experiencing the issue, please try the update and check for the issue using the standard purple issue checking procedures whether it's there anymore..
By the way, Nokia's official change log doesn't mention about such a bug fix in their PR 1.2 (they only tell about email synchronization problem has been fixed..) but I think after considering lots of user requests they've give the fix as an update but without letting us know that's a fix so that they can hide the mistake they've done... (I'm not happy that Nokia is trying to hide the mistake... But I'm totally happy that it's just a software mistake not a hardware problem...)
Please check guys and let us know whether i'm missing something here...
