ok, i will try it now, thank you guys!!!


Added on June 28, 2010, 9:17 pmok, it works!!! happy smile.gif

so, when will n97 mini got new firmware? i found out that there are still some bugs and flaws...

1. when i received more than 1 sms (that means 2 or 3), i wanna view it, then whole screen will go blank for very long time. then i have to slide the unlock key or slide out the qwerty, then the screen is working again...

2. my loudspeaker sound very very rough in maximum volume, even though i already set the equalizer to default, and turn off the stereo widening and loudness option inside the music player. all of my mp3 are also 128kbps and above, should be no problem, right? even my old antique n71 sounds better. but when i plug in headset, it is very good though...

3. the camera is a bit disappointed, most of my photos turn out to be very white-ish, even though i capture under yellow light inside living hall. weird huh?

4. for the auto key lock, there's no option to set the time, i think the default is about 10 secs...

anyone here got same problem with me?

Okay so it only lags if you install too many applications .

Another thing then : http://www.gsmarena.com/reviewcomm-417p2.php

All the comments seem to imply two problems with the phone :

Horrible battery life .
S60 Os is unstable .
Phone hangs alot .
IS this true ? Or did they fix it with a firmware upgrade ?
*
s60 unstable? hmmm, this is very subjective... well, this n97 mini is already my 3rd s60 phones, and i feel that the platform is getting more mature with each new models coming out...

occasional hang and lag is very common for most smartphones (wm, android, palm, maemo etc), not fair to say only symbian hang and lag....

as for the battery live, if u want to save as much as possible, then use less wifi and bluetooth, and try to set the screen brightness to minimum level.....

i charge mine once every 2 days, with average use of music, cam and sms, didnt use much wifi.......

but u got a point there, firmware update can improve performance and some minor issues... i love gsmarena too, they're very honest in review....

Also , other than my Volume and Camera button "not working" , I'm also stuck in FB since I can see all my friends updates but I can't seem to post anything....(Can't find input area)
Also , I noticed that at the bottom of my screen (Vertical position) , if viewed in a really opposite angle , I'm able to see white lights "leaking" out of the phone . It can't be seen during normal use , only when you look at it from an extreme angle .

button not working, must be faulty...

for fb, can try log in to m.facebook.com instead of facebook.com....

about the white lights on extreme angles, i think that is common, i'm having that too......

1. install ovi suite / nokia software updater from the nokia website, or install from included cd

2. charge ur phone battery to the max

3. dont set phone to offline

4. plug in usb cable

5. start update, and dont use ur phone during update

or u can direct go to nokia centre to update, they might charge u a fee for that though...

if u were me, u will get the n97 mini or n97? compare with the hardware(camera quality, touch screen sensitivity, sound, gps, battery usage) and software which is the best ?
*
n97 = bigger screen, larger battery capacity, larger internal memory, got fm transmitter and lens cover thumbup.gif

n97 mini = feel more comfortable in hand (very subjective), more nand memory, weight less, back cover is stainless steel, cheaper price rclxm9.gif
