I'll try plugging in the headset if it freezes again. Thanks!
One question to anyone: how do you make your music to show up in the media gallery? I see in official pics that it says Now Playing and it has a song and album cover. Mine says No songs in Now Playing and My music. Any idea?

I installed a few on the memory card and the images appeared in my gallery. After deleting the theme the picture stayed in the gallery but couldn't be erased. It gave me an error saying it was unsafe to open the file. So I reformated the memory card. So far nothing has dissapeared. I installed 3 themes that I had installed on my mom's n95 and they havent caused any problems. Hopefully everything will be ok now. Ever since I reformated the card I only had one problem. Today my music didnt play, I had to turn it off and then it played. But thats it. Now its up to 8/10. If it doesnt mess up my pics then it could go up to a 9/10.
I wanted the n86 but it hasnt reached my area yet and I didnt want to wait. Maybe later on I'll buy one :) enjoy it! I hope its a great deal after the n85 ;)

do not buy this fone, normally this fone hangs alot, i am just listening to mp3 then when the fone rings it hangs, i could not answer the call and the vibrate does not stop and the only solution is to remove the battery, also when playing games. in the middle of the games it will hang(AGAIN!!!) so the battery needs to be remove again.. this is the worst mobile phone that i used. so i gonna sell it. while the camera is good, for video and picture.
i think n79 is better, but i will go will e52.

This phone has been nothing but trouble for me since the day i bought it. I had it only a week and it began freezing up so i took it back and it was replaced. Its now since stopped working again (buttons wouldnt work and it kept freezing) Im very disappointed in this phone

Here's an update on my experience with this phone after one week (I think):
The first days were great! Camera seems good, my mom's n95-3 still seems better though. I managed to set up share online and stuff for sending pics online :) then about 2 days ago I noticed ngage wasnt working properly. Nokia Care said I had to delete it and reinstall it. Still cant reset my account though, luckily I only had 2 demos xD. Then 5 songs and a ringtone magically dissappeared from my memory card!! Good thing I had created a backup but I decided to wait and see if that was due to a few themes I'd downloaded or if its the phone. I already have the newest fw according to nsu, reinstalled it just to be sure. I also recently reformatted the card and manually reloaded the pics since music isnt as important to me. Hopefully nothing else will happen. I haven't noticed any otger bugs except the ngage and music loss. And twice when loading the camera it gave me an error and I had to restart my phone :@
Also I noticed that Facebook mobile turned all white and I noticed a link at the bottom where it says Facebook C (copyright) does anybody else have that link? It seems like a status message from someone I dont know but when I click it it takes me to a blue Facebook page buy nothing comes up? Any feedback on that would be nice!
Any ways to finnish off I can say that so far the glitches have made this go from a 9/10 to a 7.5/10. Hopefully a newer fw will change that ;)
