this actually quite annoying.

first time when you inserted the cable, X6 will prompt a menu of 4 choices (headphones, speaker yada3).

Pull the cable off.

Then insert back and the menu is gone. test if the button function properly.

should be ok.

there shud be a menu prompted when u inserted the cable.

don't select anything at all.

instead, plug off, the menu's gone.

then plug on back the cable.

phone will not prompt anything. then u can use the buttons on headphones.

if you select headphones, it will treat you headphones like normal headphones, without buttons.

because they don't know how to use S60v5. too much of iphone and BB.

as recommended by icednyior, don't use opera mini. instead, get opera mobile. feels like using new LG chocolate without 4"inch screen. and opera mobile comes with the tabs.

choc can display 1024 resolution without any zoom in or out. same as opera mobile in S60v5. dunno if choc using opera mobile.

my X6 wishlist is: get it repaired! + multi touch + more unique apps. for now i love endomondo so much. this apps really rocks.

opera mobile got vertical QWERTY what...

maybe after repair I will sell this phone. Thinking of getting a solid and durable phone. maybe e72 or 5630XM.

no. and probably will not include in firmware upgrade.

but for Symbian^3, of course!

repair first. then see if i want to sell it or not...

i thought you ware a gal....

X6 runs on S60v5, same as 5800, N97 and other nokia touchscreen phones.

N900 runs on Maemo, which is for me is 'performance godlike' . A 'all-about-performance' device. None of any other devices like iphone, Satio or other can beat N900 performance.

Future nokia devices will run probably on Symbian^3. New generation of symbian. One of its new featureis graphic accelerate function which can be seen like CoverFlow on Apple products or real 3d games on iphone/ipod touch.

But there maybe (read:maybe) future Nokia devices will not run on Symbian. Right now Nokia runs a poll of how their future device will be on Nokia Conversations blog.

I bet this device will shows up its form in the end of this year since lately Nokia will release their flagship device about once in 6-10 months. The latest is N900 and before that is N97. If I'm not mistaken N81 once been Nokia's flagship device.

it's up to u what kind of phone u prefer.

X6:
pros:
-sleek design although not slim
-capacitive screen
-Music Store 'buffet' a.k.a Comes With Music
-very large storage. suitable for anybody who loves to watch movie file on the go .

cons:
-very fragile body
- hangs occasionally
-not have search by keyword in music player
-small RAM, very frust when you download something then exit automatically because of it's autokill when RAM not sufficient.
-doesn't have horizontal home screen (even hacked 5800XM have one )

for me I prefer device which have durable body like E72 and all Nokia slim phones coz usually they have very durable and sturdy body. My spare phone (7210 Supernova) is slim, but very durable. I mean VERY.

For me right now for performance per price for high price tag, E72 beats all Nokia phones. Quite decent function, A-GPS, 3.5mm jack, 5MP, what else do you want? Design is not my priority although I prefer clamshell like N76 and 7510 Supernova.

epikcase i believe is something more special. Never use it before though.

Still not repairing my X6. Why NCC is so far away? Don't have time to go there.

for me la, as x6 user,

if you want to buy it now,

i suggest you to save some money

then buy n8. saw a picture that n8 can play sims 3 with not-much-difference from PC version.

coverflow music player.

and lotsa apps. Nokia is working SUPER HARD to compete with Apple AppStore.


N8 + 3m mini projector = present everywhere.

not sure about proejctor thingy, but anything which can display something and have a digital interface (VGA/DVI/DP) sure can convert to N8 HDMI port.



anyway, if you still insist to buy x6, get also a leather pouch @ epikcase @ capdase silicon cover + decent screen protector.

for me, if you want to use it casually without stressing multitask, i think this phone is decent enough.

i use this phone for music, skyping and emails. other function, rarely use.


since i'm using 32GB version, i also store some movies to watch it during travelling. converted to mpeg format i think, since i rarely travel right now.

what phone ur using now?

the only major upgrade in X6 compare with 5800XM is...

audio chip (freakin fantastic), new body design (better than 5800), capacitive touchscreen and awesome 5MP camera.

I once capture Le Tour de Langkawi in race and X6 can give me a continuous still image! Just like DSLR.

speaker also better.

lagging... hmm this is subjective. depends on usage. Usually this small apps from Ovi Store will drain your battery fast when you quit improperly (still hidden in task manager). And makes phone lag.

For greedy people who wants multitask at maximum, get N900. I bet soon-to-be-launch N8 also cannot compare with N900 in terms of memory based on N8 demo video.

if you already used to 5800 QWERTY pad, it's not much different compare to X6, just a little bit sensitive.

call duration, damn long. As it can resist 3G + wifi on for a whole day, call duration is nothing.

else are the same.

casing quality very louya one. get silicon case fast.

budget case = epikcase (only sold online by ebay, askarperang and other dude; forgot his name)
a little bit branded case = capdase (even got leather pouch special for X^ if i'm not mistaken)

but leather pouch seems like an old guy in mid 40's.

X6 dont have much fans here. Maybe because outdated GUI (doesnt much dfferent from S60v3 and V1) and laggy-ness.

As long as I can use Skype on mobile, great camera for reference purpose and awesome music player, a little lag doesnt disturb me at all.

But a virtual RAM will be a gift if its available.

Anyway, it's free phone. Cant say much complaints.

car cradle?

i found similar to this one but china made and can fit into ALL PHONES (almost, exception to nokia's past weird leaflet design) and guess what, the price is RM9.90.


Comparing to one i saw at Nokia Authorize reseller that reached almost RM200. just because it's 'made by nokia'.

p/s: it's similar to car cradle that ngbh done at bulk orders section.

That RM20 car cradle have many design to choose. At my place (johor) it ranged from Rm9.90 to Rm16. dunno KL selangor price.


WH-701? i tried to find that earpiece also. No luck here in my place.

But I prefer BH 214. Less clutter. Do you know the price for this one?

you should ask aspires2006 and some others (including me:P) how we felt when it's still not release in malaysia while you already bored playing with it.

Pros - Can show off to friends and even Nokia Authorized Reseller (I do this )
Cons - Very ^*&%#*%& lag and too much problem compare with Firmware v20 nowadays.

Since RAM and processor for X6 are not good enough to run Symbian 3, seems Symbian 3 will be a dream to those X6 owners.....








....unless they buy N8 soon.


BTW, have anyone here tried F-Secure Anti-Theft?

I installed it but still not trying this app capabilities since it claims 'can detect stolen phone through GPS and lock it'.

but the downside of it, it needs to run everytime on background. So, right now I can't use my Opera Mobile while using this app.

because they didn't have even 50 apps in Ovi Store when S60v5 phones already reached market about... 1 1/2 years ago? starting with N97 and 5800.

just save up some money, or sell ur X6 + top up some money, then N8 @ iphone 4 release just grab it.

1. normal
2. normal
3. normal


after all this is x6. not x666.
