@ SMartie experienced Users

A few noobie Qs ( tats y i don like to get complicated phones...so many things to do/to know  biggrin.gif )

1. GPS is free ? Does it access tru 3G? Runs on data chargers? (so pai seh)

2. Nokia Map is the Map application, does it come with Msia Maps? ( AP sets)

3. Does MapKing directly has Msia and SG map loaded?

4. What else i have to do with my new N958GB..??

5. where? or can i install the V menu style(found on n81) into my N95?

blush.gif
*
1. Its totally free because it access thru satellite... but remember to disable your network usage so tat it wont use your 3G/GPRS to download/update the map details.

2. At least ap set doesn't. not sure about the avaxx set.

3. Nope.

4. ah??? in terms of?

5. v menu style? im not really sure about this..

I also wanted to try out the Garmin XT, downloaded the k*yg*n but still not yet experiment it yet mainly I have to search for the maps lol. I did downloaded the whole china map for garmin (updated 3rd quater of 2007) but hell I'm in Malaysia so no point la haha (though I'm going to macau and guangzhou very soon). Although maps are more detailed but I'll just stick to Nokia Maps first cause too lazy to do experiments now.

By the way, I think I found out why the battery is draining so badly out of a sudden. So it happened again just now and I think I tracked down what went wrong - apparently I accidently pressed the symbian key (menu key) and made the camera running in the background and stupid me I press the shutter again and call up the camera once more. And then it seems to have 2 instances of camera app running without showing the 1st instance in the task manager, but normally recalling the same app will just switch to the app but not open another instance. Whatever it is, so I think there's a hidden camera application running so even though I quit the 2nd instance the 1st instance might have running non stop there. doh.gif

Anyway I think it was the same that I accidently pressed the menu key then switch back to camera via task manager but I can't recall if I did that. Nevertheless, from now on whenever I use camera I don't dare to touch the menu button again or else I'll have to restart the phone to ensure no unwatned battery power drain.

As strange as it is, I'll just stick to this weird flaw first, hopefully this is addresable by Nokia developers. rolleyes.gif

actually you can always check whether the camera shutter (the internal one) is open or closed... if its open then meaning the camera app is running... the shutter will be closed when camera is not in use or in standby mode... imo, standby mode does not consume tat much power lor... so thanks to you, few posts back you'd mentioned bout this edi so everytime i close my camera app, i'll make sure my shutter is shut too (because this will make sure that i'd quitted the camera app)

No leh, mine still start up super fast even after using for 1 month (but I'm new firmware though), less than 30 secs...Even though I already put in more than half of the 8GB storage already, and installed quite some applications (but not running in the background).

Hmm I smell defragment of your 8GB... (kidding!!) tongue.gif

I suggest you backup your stuffs and do a hard reset to see if that helps? Better than taking the risk to install stupid v11 firmware... shakehead.gif

ya... i also tidak rela update la... but i really don like my phone now -.-" how to do a hard reset? and hard reset means something like reformat rite?

reflash= redo the firmware updates.

if that sound messy, try hard format. Turn phone off. Press and hold these three keys together:. Green dial key,; Star key (*); Three key (3) and then turn it on.

this will restore everything back from the ROM. sort like reinstall back Windows

i'll prefer the redo the firmware updates... currently my phone isn't on the latest firmware and i don wanna update it to the latest either... any idea i can reinstall my current firmware?

NSS - Nemesis Service Suite (3rd party software),

Want to ask..

Pouch for classic N95 cant fit the N95 8GB??The shop people told me cannot..

Izzit need the rotateme running background always for the screen to flip?Cause i notice the N82 running without the rotateme and the screen still can chg..
*
The outlook of N95 and the 8GB one is different... the pouch used to click on the side of the classic N95 and therefore will scratch the 8GB one if you insist to put it in... rotateMe beta5 has got the option to hide app from task menu, therefore you wont even know whether rotateMe is running only if you access the menu rclxms.gif
