Try updating the firmware or hard resetting it. Never had any hangs at all when I used the N97 Mini before.

Hi all.

Using E71 now. Looking at N97 mini as upgrade.

does the email app (not the new PUSH email) work the same way as the E71? This is the old email app that appears in the same folder as SMS Inbox. I'm not quite comfortable with the new push email app. Looks quite clumsy and slow.

just got a less than 2 weeks old ap set nokia n97 mini

the apac latest firmware is v11.0.045.. who still in v10 can go update..

Anyone wana let go their ORI N97 mini can pm me thanks!

someone selling RM900 for AP set 2nd hand check it out

I've used a few touchscreen phone before and maybe I am suay, most of those phone have touchscreen problem. Even 5800 also got.

So dont mind paying extra for ori set worrying the touchscreen got problem

Worry away, chica, the mini seems (at least according to uncle google) to have a high lemon rate, lol.

Not that I have anything against it or anything (typing this on me brand spanking new copper mini - add me to the club guys) - but me brand new mini seems like its a lemon edi.

Why? The metal bezel around the screen has popped loose, causing the touchscreen to go loose as well and it's wrecking havoc whenever I call anyone (screen goes blank unless I press and hold on the top left corner of the screen) . And it's barely a few hours old...

Funny that my (traded-in) 5800 never really gave me such scary hardware problems even with all the heavy abuse I put it through (even though in terms of the firmware, it was generally a jammy mess - must've been all the hacks I did to it).

Sigh. It's a real shame because other than that little niggle, I LOVE mY mini - uneven keyboard lighting, light leaks, loose battery cover, tiny chiclet keys and all.

Anybody can reccomend me a good Nokia Care center to go to for me to sort out this mess? Planning to go to the one in Plaza Berjaya after work tomorrow.

i think u bought a bad apple...

Lol, I guess so. Was so pressed for time that I didn't have time to check it properly.

But really, other then the loose bezel and loose touchscreen, everything else is more then bareable:

1) "Y" key light a bit dim - nothing major
2) Loose batt cover - fixed with some diy
3) Chiclet keys - well, I DID want a slide out keyboard + touchscreen + slimness. The keys could be worse, lol.

And in terms of firmware stability, I really don't think anything can beat my jelly unstable 5800 which needed almost daily restartng.

Sad I haven't seen an epik case for the mini yet. I NEED one to make sure my mini survives through the year - like my 5800 did before it lol.

N97 symbian is same as i8910 omnia hd?

Just got back to KL (Kuala Lipis) from KL (Kuala Lumpur), lol... Seems that I'm not as remote and ulu as I think I am. But anyhow, service was okay as usual from Plaza Berjaya's Nokia Care. Firmware Update + Full front panel replacement + Back cover refitting in less than 3 hours. Also got a Capdase Soft Jacket for me Mini, the closest I got to an Epikcase. Works swell, shame it's not available in fully transparent form (only black + clear front)...

Now I'm really lovin me Mini. Plus the fact that I got it at the same price I paid for me 5800 a year ago, and me W810i a coupla years back (all original) - main reason why I was not as exasperated as I should be over the cover issues... Only problem is, other than the hardware keyboard (which I now bust out constantly), solid build quality, the svelte size and the OH-ME-GOD-THERE'S-KINESCROLLING-EVERYWHERE - it's practically my old 5800 in brown, at least in terms of OS performance. Yeah, it hiccups less, but you'd think that a smaller screen + faster processor = noticeably faster performance?

Gonna test some of the homebrew firmwares later (not for the Jack Sparrow stuff, I swear!). There's one that promises 60MB of free RAM at boot, W00T...

@bboyspirit - Basically, it's the same. But not all the stuff you can install in the N97/Mini you can stuff into the Omnia. Likewise, the opposite is also true. Omnia runs smoother initially compared to the N97, but Symbian is REALLY like windows - it lags with time (price to pay for it's extreme flexibility and relative robustness). Expect both the OmHD and the 97 to run at the same speed after a few days due to what I can only describe as memory hemorrhaging.

hi there~ i just got my mini last week...mine is the music edition..bronze color.. When i bought that time, they said have the ovi music store where i can dl music for free for 1 year together with the activation num.. i follow the instruction and it still cant work. I open the ovi player and try to create new acc..dunno y cant click the button... ANy1 face this prob?Can any1 help me here?

Joined the Mini's club yesterday, first problem, "scratchy vibration". Have touch vibration turned-on, sometimes it doesn't vibrate, but generate a "scratching" sound. It is like the loose vibration motor. Upon searching the net, found many N97 users with similar problems, but yet to read Mini owner has such problem.

Any feedback? Hesitate to send in NCC to have them dismantle a day old unit.

my n97mini and my previous n97 smtme hve ths prblm but it's rare,it hapen ecpecially when the bty is low.if the btry is 2 bar n above,i dont have this problem at all.
