    Why? I read all the previous comments and it all say negative about N85. I don't know why u r facing such low quality of N85 since I my self experience good quality of pictures, sounds, and all. My N85 camera is just great if compared to n95, and I think its video recording is nearly to n82 video quality which is for me very clear and good. This phone is better than N96 in my opinion since N96 does not have fm transmitter, and since the tv tuner in the N96 is not working in my country. What can I say about this phone is, it is not that bad, it is the opposite.

      .bought it at 350USD

      Pros:
      *It looks really great.
      *Fm Trans.
      *Amoled
      *8gb Card
      *Can be charged via USB

      Cons:
      *Slider and battery cover make it looks cheap.
      *5Mp Still photos are not as good as expected.
      *30fps Video is way too bad.
      *Stereo speaker aren't loud enough.

      and 100 USD and get N86.

          grgo, 10 Nov 2009Thanx, but I can't turn FM transmitter on, it just stays off...to keep activate FM transmitter u must have keep playing a song in ur device otherwise it will turn off automatically, and remove the headset if connected, its easy.

              I am using this mobile from last 2-3 months and now there is crack formed between the "c" and the menu ,sound quality is also not as good as I expected and when I'am in playground or driving my bike at that time I have to receive calls without knowing the caller's name because of this OLED. And the 5mp cam is also not as good as my frnd's n79. I am feeling very sad why I purchased this mobile. I would say go for N79 it is just the best.

I can say that I would think it was a virus because I had downloaded themes and that's when I first noticed my songs missing. But after reformating and reinstalling the phone's fw 3 times, the problem didn't do away. And I didn't download anything after the 1st time. So the last time it happened I didn't have any downloads and my antivirus didn't detect anything and one day out of 250 pic I was left with 186. And for no reason at all. I took it in to get it checked by the carrier's phone repair guy and he checked it for 2 days. After those 2 days he said nothing was wrong. That I was putting things into the phone's memory and not the memory card. I was like wtf? I've had so many phones and this guy says I dont know how to put music on this one? So I sold it and now I own a BB and am quite satisfied with it. Of coarse the camera sux compared to the n85. But I can live with that. Thanks anyways ;)

                      After you "turn on" your fm transmitter, you should play some music (via music player) on your phone. But make sure you asign a frequency (XX.XX KHz, where X is a number [0~9]). Then you need to turn your car radio (or any other radio) on THAT particular frequency & make sure that your phone is NOT far away (10 mtr) from the radio antenna. Please also make sure that the frequency you selected is NOT occupied by any of the local radio channels or the frequency is NOT close to any local radio channels. For example, suppose a local radio channel runs on 98.60. Make sure you don't tune fm transmitter between 98.10 & 99.10. It is better to clear yourself +/- 0.50 MHz as your phone has limited capacity and can only transmit to a close range.
                      Take care.
                      Suhanoo

I used to have a 6600 & 3230 in the past. The problem you said happened to me on those models - the reason was the same - downloading directly from the net. I would recommend you to download via PC, check it with a anti-virus program, then load it in your mobile through data cable. I hope you can do that.
                        Take care.
                        Suhanoo

                                        @ Shukrima - You need to go into the settings of the phone, and change the application settings, from signed only to any (Can't remember the exact phrase Nokia uses, but that's the gist of it) Once you've done that, you'll be able to install the software. Sometimes software has an expired certificate, to install that you'll need to change the date on the phone. HTH.
