022.009 available at nokia.com.my, will try it tonight.

mymetz, how is it going?

good so now its official. so you guys update it with the super short USB cable? I havent had a chance to update mine yet.

hmmm since its now official, I suppose can also go to the nokia care cantre to have it updated right? (at least if somthing goes wrong, they will be responsible )

will update the first page for the official update...

out.

i just update my phone, so far so good.

Updated mine last night, no obvious improvement, anyone knows what has changed?

Garmin Mobile XT still take as long to lock satellites, and crashed after a few minutes, no difference in this aspect.

Anyone knows how to get Ovi Maps Drive running?

So far .... OK..

garmin take about 20 sec to aquire satellites... inside my house. maybe depens on area and weather too...

mymetz, 20 sec is using Integrated GPS only? or with Assisted GPS?

I m thinking of getting this phone (regardless of hardware issue) or N79
One thing though...

The camera..

Can someone post few pics?

Actually i m student, and i msearching for a phone that can 'snap' timetable, notes (save time to jot down on notebooks, and yet still readable)..

N79's 5mpix for sure could do that.
what about e55's 3mpix?

What diff between that? at GPS information signal tu wrotes assisted GPS.. this night I test about 15 sec...

The phone hanged again exactly when the alarm was supposed to go off this morning, luckily my sister woke me before she left the house, now I need to kick some nokia asses...

inside building just take 20sec to lock d gps signal???damn goooddd!!

there ia a difference because A-gps will use data from ur network via 3g or edge to help the satellite know ur position. If just gps mean it uses straight satellite and usually takes 1-2 Mins on a good receiver. Using A-gps incures some data charges but just GPS is totally free.

Go to ur phone settings and then select positioning methods and only tick integrated gps and leave the rest including agps un ticked.

Then test the results.

this has been discussed many times..without A-GPS, it'll take minutes to lock gps signal.. with A-GPS, it'll take seconds..and the 3G charges aint that bad, supposedly something like cents or point cents for every lock.

Added on November 16, 2009, 4:12 pmi'm not sure if u know but camera quality, best if you go with sony ericsson phones... anyhow, 3.2mp camera by nokia should be just fine to suit your purpose, just be sure to press 'focus' before you snap...if u use E71, that'd be 't' to focus..

I see..

I was wondering if u (or anyone) could post some smple pic?

using EDoF, are you sure there is "focus" , or does it even matter at all on E52?

Sorry but i dont own e52..i'm using 't' to focus my camera..i dunno e52 camera have auto focus or u'll need to press any button to autofocus

neither do i, but i do hv interest to own one..

for what i understand, the E52 does not have focusing mechanism. in return it uses a deeper than usual depth-of-field (DOF) to capture anything clear from 1m (ft.?) away.
this actually allow it to have quicker than usual shutter speed according to some.

e52 is using fixed-focus mechanism, like u mentioned above. So almost like autofocus, only thing is must take object more than 1m away. If you take photo of text, still possible but u'll have to play with the distance between camera and text few times until u get a focus, then only can snap.

so this will be not convenient if msh8h plans to snap timetable and textbook notes and such...go for e71!

Ooo.. I c ...

Just changing the Positioning methods to Integrated GPS only... an test in my house... Wallauu... 15 sec.. My house atap adec (abestos).
but... I test outside my house (open area).. about 70 sec.. pening laa pulak ni...

yesterday.. I test on my car on the way to work... about 10 ~ 15 sec..



Alarm I test so far ok... phone doesn't hang.

Is the E55 out in M'sia already? if yes, anyone here bought one? what's the price?

1) Get and install the Nokua Software Updater (NSU) http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-so...software-update
2) Connect your E52 in PC Suite Mode
3) NSU will connect to Nokia and downloads the new updates, size around 148MB.
4) After updating, the E52 will reboot, and enjoy the latest firmware.

I just updated my E52, few minutes ago, and hope everything works fine. My first impression... it seem to be much quicker or responsive.

With previous version, I can make my E52 reboot itself by browsiing a Internet pages with huge images/pictures. Other than that, no critical issue. Never hang during receiveing, making and answering calls.
