Transferred my main SIM into E6 as my N8 failed me for the 1st time yesterday (Batt just drained out completely as I'm out. Must be my Mail For Exchange sync setup)

This gave me idea to flash Belle onto it laugh.gif

Questions tho, which one is better? Leaked, stock Belle or CFW Belle?

And I suppose Opera Mobile cant be used, but how about Opera Mini?

Hi, after upgraded to Anna installed the 4 updates in SW Updates,
I found some questions.

1. The WiFi will not connect automatically anymore, everytime when I wanna sync my email, i have to connect at WLAN there first only I can sync my mail, did I miss any setting?

2. The WiFi will turn off automatically after idle for maybe 1 or 2 minutes, and after that, I've to reconnect it manually in order to sync my 2nd or 3rd mail account.

3. It has horizontal QWERTY like I-Phone or not?
Thanks guys biggrin.gif

1&2. TBH, my wifi still reconnecting like usual. Maybe you can check your destinations in your connectivity setting, and add your wifi AP.

3. YES, it have horizontal qwerty.


For those who felt that the portrait qwerty is too small, I'd suggest installing Swype from Ovi Store. Much better keyboard provided, even if you didn't use the swipe gestures. The only downside, there is no T9 keyboard.

And I checked my SW Update, but there is no camera update available for download. Did you guys download it from somewhere else?

And I think my N8 is due for a hard reset. Only 28.8MB free memory available in C, and I dunno what filling it. As what I learned from using my N97 before, little free memory on C = Disaster waiting to happen.

What are the apps from OVI store that you people think are the most useful for the N8? Or which do you think are the good ones and the bad ones?

Hmm. Some of my apps used now don't come from Ovi Store. But hell, lets get started

1. 4squick (Blardy awesome app, really enjoyed using it compared to official 4sq for Android)
2. Fmobi (Makes having Social on my phone pointless)
3. Gravity (Best Twitter app. On any OS. Period)
4. Opera Mobile n Mini (What more can be said?)
5. Youtube Downloader
6. Whatsapp
7. Music Stopper (Listening to music before sleeping never posed a problem anymore)
8. Force Control widget
9. Nokia Situations (Cool stuff. Helped me to save battery life by switching to power saving mode automatically after midnight)
10. Picsel Smart Office (Best PDF reader for Symbian)
11. Dorian (Epub reader. Hey, reading is fun! laugh.gif )

So meaning that the focus point will always be at the center of the picture?

I can't focus on the object on the left or right of the picture izzit?  hmm.gif

Yep, atm u can't.

Still, what u can do is by focusing first your subject at the center, and then pan the camera around to get your subject into your desirable position in the picture. icon_rolleyes.gif

Is the latest email regarding the lifetime VVIP support for a FREE phone which the warranty is ALREADY expired? Ok, that is interesting.

I personally feel that probably there is a better way to do it instead of annoying someone. After all, most of we Rangers are working adults and I hope we are matured enough to understand that there could be some reasons on why we were told not to send emails directly to him.

It is just my 2 cents though. No hard feelings. We are not Power Rangers but JUST Nokia Rangers. Nokia doesn't owe us anything just because we carry that title.

If some of you still want to email Thomas, then it is up to you. Cheers

Well, 1st of all, the warranty is still not expired. Our N8 have 2 years worth of warranty, due to the fact that our set is the pre-order sets. Yes, I confirmed this with Thomas during our 1st meeting nod.gif

That to be said, I do believe there is much better way to deal with this issue. We are not VVIP that for sure, and TBH, its not Nokia's obligation to give us VVIP like treatment. And I do believe that if Thomas request that we remove his email from the chain, we better respect his intention. After all, he is one of the more helpful Nokians I ever met, heck he is the one who actually honored our 2 years warranty (All of the Nokians are helpful ok, don't get me wrong! laugh.gif) He have reasons for requesting that, and I'm sure, as adults, we have to acknowledge that and not throwing up tantrums. All in all, respect given is respect earned icon_rolleyes.gif

And I'm sure that he himself doesn't know the answer for that. He is more towards marketing IIRC, and IMHO, Glen Cha is more knowledgeable in hardware issues. After all, he is the Product Manager for Nokia Malaysia.

Abit slowpork here.. I only notice that lotsa HD videos actually not compartible wth N8 sigh.. I downloaded few youtube HD MTV via youtube downloader app but can't play esp mp4 files. WMV file OK..dunno Avi can or not.. Mkv file last time bigger than 2GB also kenot.. I din know such limitation..Sigh..

Weird. If HD Youtube video from the youtube downloader app, it shouldn't be a problem. Do you download the 720p or 1080p video? AFAIK, N8 only support 720p max. All of my youtube HD videos were at 720p and plays without a hitch. And yes, it was downloaded using the same app.

And tbh, video playback is such a messy clusterf**k in all mobile devices. Its not about the container (avi, mkv, mp4), its just the plethora of codecs available now. For N8, the codec supported is h.264, wmv and DivX IIRC. Stock player wise, I find that N8 video playback is really great in terms of codec support compared to other mobile devices.

As much as I loved my N8 with leaked Belle installed, there's no way it can still be my daily driver after all its limitation. So, I'm jumping ship, nope not to Android. Much less iOS. I'm going to use the uber-exclusive Windows Phone 7.5 Mango powered Dell Venue Pro as my daily driver. Really digging the integration in WP7 as well as its smoothness. And quality time with E6 makes me realized that I cant live without hardware QWERTY keyboard. Plus, I get it for dirt cheap! laugh.gif

Still, my N8 will be my primary camera and media consumption device. And I already rekindled my love for N8 after installed being installed with Belle. Maybe its because of my geeky soul craving for something more exotic laugh.gif
