cant connect my ext harddisk 500gb to the phone. Probably not enough power
*
the N8 can't power up any external harddisk no matter 2.5" or 3.5", all external harddisk need external power supply... nod.gif
the N8 can power up the SS harddisk direct if not mistaken but not those "old" mechanical harddisk... sweat.gif

I haven't tried this. Can you directly upload the MP4 HD video recording to youtube?

hehe, here i will list down something that I might try to evaluated first... (if anyone have more time on hand now might try it first as well) nod.gif

1. GPS performance compare with the tube (since both using same gps chip, would like to check the N8 gps attenna performance)
2. The camera mod functionality, will capture some b4 and after mod photos/videos see got any "good" result or not.

but still, applying for the cert now for my beloved N8 ... tongue.gif

Tried it with external HDD (laptop HDD) and can't work. I can hear my HDD go 'click...click' which indicates lack of power.

coz the original charger only 800mA so for full charge should be 1 and a half hour loh... 800mA+400mA, somewhere there loh as efficientcy is not 100%.... nod.gif

u can use old 5800xm charger which i think have highier rating... 1000mA?? hmm.gif

If you are not on any data plan, change your settings of the phone to always ask for connection.

Also, you can put your widgets on homescreen to offline mode.

Another tip: Create a new destination (which is a prioritized list of connections the device will use when searching for network)

Make 1 list/destination: "Free internet" and put only WLAN or free wifi under it.
then make another list: "Paid internet" and put your operater network connections under it such as Maxis 3G, Digi internet etc.

Whenever your app or device wants to connect to the internet, it will then ask and you can decide whether to choose "Free internet" or "Paid internet".

It's troublesome, yes, but this phone is designed to work in default to have full network capabilities.  Therefore it is highly recommended to get a data plan (unlimited or at least capped after reaching a limit).

Remember, the search function in Ovi Maps needs the network otherwise you can't search.

oh,

Compare GPS of N8 and 3GS, N8 wins by a mile. Ovi Map lock my position really quick and navigations really accurate in my place. Somemore, u can install garmin on the N8. What kind of GPS Chip N8 use?  hmm.gif

Compare HD recording of N8 and 3GS, N8 wins~ oh yea, forgot 3GS doesn't have HD recording tongue.gif
Browsing experience on Opera browser is better. But Nokia's Opera browser doesn't have pinch to zoom. There are 2 kind of Opera browser; Opera Mobile 10 and Opera Mini 5. Prefer Opera Mobile 10 than Opera Mini 5

gps use same chip as the 5800/n97/x6 Navilink5.0 but i've tested it this morning from ipoh to penang the sensitivity and accuratecy improved A LOTS!! compare to my 5800xm... i still pending to verify the SNR from garmin satelite maps but BUT BUT!!!!! MY N8 IS DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

go to all your destination setting, for all the paid internet/wap/mms conection change the "ask for password" to YES, so everytime if it connect to the 3G it will ask for password then u can cancel it... this would help in term of accidently connected... but for the prevention of no 3G at all u might need to dig deeper for all those installed apps and widget that use internet... nod.gif
