    Need help on my nokia N85. When I'm trying to watch youyube, it says " Maximum number of connections in use. Close an active connection first. " But I don't have any open connection, just the one on youyube. Can any one help me on this ?

        ALSO n79 has 2 mb less internal memory and no 1900mhz band..The n79 reminded me of the n82 too much to consider buying it..

            Anonymous, 05 Mar 2009Hi, I'm planning to buy this phone but I need to know first if the text message size can be in... moreyes,,i went to other in mssge settings and putt 999 in cause thats the biggest amount you can put and also i use memory card as default mssge settings,,if you change to memory card as default it asks if you want to transfer your mssge from inbox so all messages are stored on card,,

            YOu cannot get free n-gage games ,,however you can try them and nokia gives you a code in the n85 box allowing to upgrade free to 1 n-gage games full game..

            The n79 has smaller screen and no oled screen but i suppose pretty much the same cannot see much else but battery life in n85 is superb

                Nokia N85 is a good phone and very handy.
                I love it so much compared to my previous N81 8GB & N95. 5MP & good sound quality.

I want to buy a phone which is better than N73 in every possible way.... moreCammille put a post just further down,,she had n95-1 and n73 and she is immpressed with n85...WHY dont people read thru some posts or use search function at bottom of screen..

                            Which is better n79,,n85 comment,,how do we know we have not got all three fones..Go read some reviews or compare on gsm arena itself plus if your using gsmarena you have a comp so do some googling..ITS still up to the individual what fone they buy and what they need it for...

                                currently i'm using N73. I want to buy a phone which is better than N73 in every possible way. I don't want a phone with screen smaller than N73, so all xpressmusic except 5800 is out. I don't want phone with only 3.2 mega pixel as N73, i want better so 5800, N81, N78 are out. I don't want phone with poorer batt life than N73 so N82 and N95 (old one) are out. I want faster processor than N73, all other phone has faster processor. I don't want phone without camera cover so N96 and N86 8MP are out. I don't want girly phone so N79 is out. I don't want unexpandable memory so N95 8GB is out. That leaves me only with N85.

                                    Hi all,

                                    I was a fan of nokia , but now i'm not. I will tell you the reason.Let me ask you a simple question, which is the most important part of a mobile phone, we use mobile phone to make and receive calls,right?? so the vital part is earpiece of the handset,am i right??

                                    So the nokia should keep a minimum quality standard while assembling and testing the mobile phones.I bought N85 two months back,in the end of november.In two months time the earpiece stopped working.For making/ receiving a call either I need to use loudspeaker or headset.It is not a feasible soultion!!!

                                    I contacted nokia care and they told they can replace the earpiece since it is under warranty , and last one month i'm waiting for the earpiece.. in between, once they told me that the part is available.I went there with the phone, they told sooo sorry its out of stock...See how careless is the customer service !!!

                                    I came to knew that most of the N85 users are facing the same problem.. You can see tons of such reviews over net.. So please please think too many times before buying a nokia...especially N85...As you all know the N85 price is not affordable for an ordinary person... !!

                                    Nokia should take care to keep the minimum quality standard atleast to keep their brand name :D

                                      Its a gr8 phone, I am using it for past 4 mnths.. Battery time is excellent, FM Transmitor and Camera are too good. I think its ROI is very high!
