well, there are few hiccups with E51. i've heard of bad grounding. got hissing sound when u talking on the phone if you didn't touch the metal part. which means the batt cover.

another one is silent autorestart. you don't even know the phone will autorestart. this is not really a problem. i've experience it once b4.

Silent autorestart?
Are you saying that the phone will auto restart itself without you knowing it?

silent auto restart? won't you need to key in your PIN # again? i never had a problem with the phone restarting...

as for the hissing sound, haven't experienced it... but then again, my hands are always on the metal part, which is the battery cover.

Never had any of these problems so far(touch-wood) is your CKD or CBU? hehehe.,...as in ori or underwater?

well.. i've checked mine.. it says made by nokia... doesn't say finland or china... mine confirmed ori cause bought from nokia shop with zitron warranty

I guess, like Windows, if you load too much crap on it, it might cause some system instability. Me, I just use the apps bundled with the phone, as well as Windows Live, Google Maps and Gmail only. None of those problems happened with mine.

Time to count out phone prob huh?
here i found one wanna discuss with you all
it's the camera, please notice this photo i taken...
how come got green-ish around(not just this shot)
especially the black area
was it normal, or my phone's prob?


Attached thumbnail(s)

I'll try some outdoor shots tomorrow and attach some samples here. You took those under fluorescent lighting, correct?

yup,but i use night mode is just normal...

nothing is wrong with my camera so far. Touchwood

wah...seems to be problematic mate

well not so much for me since it is a business phone and i only use the camera function for business purposes i.e taking pics of the parking lots so that i wont get lost searching for it after my meetings hihihi

wow, dam good idea bro, never thought of that, thanks for the tip
Currently my E51 tends to lag slightly(not much) other then that 100% happy with it...
Have not installed any softwares other then what came with the phone....

Wow, low light condition brings out the worse in the camera. Not that it functions any better in broad daylight. Check out my pics attached below. Absolutely crap.

Anyway, that goes to show, after 2 months of using this phone, now only play with the camera that I'm not the one to whip out his phone just to take snaps. I have my point and shoot for that.




Lowlight, taken in the stairwell heading up to my office. ZOMFG!


Taken on the street at mid-day. So-so only. My previous Panny VS7 took nicer pics and that's almost a 2-year old phone.

why not u try to off the phone once in a while to free up the memory coz sometimes there are programs that wont close properly eventhough its stated closed in the menu.

seem same with me...dark area it become green-ish
i'm sure your office stairwell's wall paints is white right?

Actually, it's more yellow than white though the greenish tint is definitely there. I wonder if we can get a software fix for this.

uiks i've experienced it too this morning (auto restart)...hmm is it just a bug or it it just a way to free up memory? coz it didn't ask for SIM Password the way when you manually restart your phone.

[UPDATE] i noticed that the auto restart thing is not a model specific problem. it happens to other models as well, A lot of people had post the same problem in the E60-E61i-E90 and E65. Now i wonder...is it the Symbian OS problem?

did the phone just go back to the nokia logo?

i wonder how often the phone does this... luckily it's my personal line so i don't get much calls on it... so i wouldn't know if it restarted or not...

yup it just goes to the nokia logo for no apparent reasons...again i think that this effect alot of nokia models with symbian OS.....not specific to e51 it self.
