Hi my N8 friends wave.gif

I'm planning to get an orange N8 this month and join the club, but I've not much experience about phone stuff sweat.gif
May I know is Nokia N8 good to buy right now? I mean, they have newer firmware and is the "DEAD" of Nokia N8 already solved? Cos I read here in the previous thread said that it has sudden death cry.gif

By the way, I've read the first page of V27, there's a lot of things, those are something like "jailbreak" or....?

Sorry, i'm really noob in phone, hope to learn more here thumbup.gif

Dun worry, there are plenty of senior members and junior members here who owns an N8 willing to help u anytime.  icon_rolleyes.gif

For the dead issue thing, I rarely or sort of haven't heard of any incident anymore lately. If there is any now, it usually happened on the older batch of phones.
Some speculate that the newer batch is more stable. But regardless the risk is still there and it's less than 5% so it's up to u n ur luck.  sweat.gif

If you are looking for a phone with a good camera then it is definitely a good buy if u minus the fact that a normal basic digital camera just cost slightly cheaper.

There's no "jailbreak" here but there are something called "mods" and "signed certificate"  tongue.gif
We'll teach u more bout it once u got the n8  thumbup.gif

Thanks first, anyway, more questions.

1. How to know that the phone is actually not the older batch that you mentioned? I wanted to get newer batch in order to avoid the risk of dead N8.

2. Actually I'm a user of Nokia N8 for more than 3 years, camera is my highest priority in buying a phone, that's why I need a N8, is there any better camera phone than N8?

3. laugh.gif for your mods and signed certificate statement, it's just another name of "jailbreak" like IP4 ya? tongue.gif

4. Between Original and AP, is there any different in term of the phone's quality and parts ( I mean, inside the phone itself like the LCD and etc ) or just the warranty coverage is different? Which one is better price?

5. Orange color is now available for local distributor right? I tot last time what I heard, only black, silver and green are available. Wanted the orange one badly, cos I saw in picture, the color is very bright biggrin.gif

Hi biggrin.gif

Setup my Nokia N8 today and finally put my sim card into it, firstly, I've setup Mail, social, Ovi store and etc by using WLAN, the problem is, when I disconnected the WLAN, it will connect back automatically, sweat.gif

I've google and set all the things I found on google but still the same sweat.gif
