QUOTE(stringfellow @ Nov 25 2008, 06:53 PM) I'm coming to my second month using this phone and UMobile, and still no news on DVB-H compatibility. Once the two months are done, I'm cancelling my UMobile subscription. owh?...how can i forgot that part...guess,its another down part...caused,didn't think other than UMobile will be offering that services... FYI, I've tried DVB-H while in Italy, the TV signals there are flawless! Just like TV, only digital, with EPG and all.  |

QUOTE(cabi11 @ Nov 29 2008, 02:09 AM) i'm not sure how 6110 navigator works but it can navigate user step by step with nice voice navigator but need to pay for service like drive and walk guide, and one more important thing, it'll drain your battery so fast. battery not so good la. yups!...GPS drains the battery really fast... QUOTE(aruja_69 @ Nov 29 2008, 08:51 AM) OF course lah..u need to pay for the voice navigator and battery for a while will drain off. That is why u need to buy the hp stand to pllace in your car and must connect with the charger too. any suggestion good stand for this model?... QUOTE(cabi11 @ Nov 29 2008, 04:37 PM) how to make sure u reach destination by walking without getting your phone battery empty? in car of course can use charger. that is what my comment all about. the battery is really not reliable. even a 100m radius walk in a city like lodon, battery can easily drain off. i experience it before. frustrating. at the end, i still need manual hard copy map. what u think? yups!...drinks like water...somemore you can't get so much information for the short-time of like that battery...kind-of disappointed with the battery...  QUOTE(kunyit_kampung @ Nov 30 2008, 10:56 PM) up until now im using ori n95 8gb batt replacing standar 950mha n96 batt,working flawlessly with no problem at all + i get more power heheheheeh......................but back cover slightly "kembong" it not a big prob to me u dun now bout ya all,more important to me is more power heheheh owh?...the battery works well with N96?...how long compared to standard battery?... i'm facing a wifi problems,which can't connect to the wifi and usually the phone would hang...did anyone faced the same problem?... |

QUOTE([N�) 3on,Dec 1 2008, 08:57 PM] are you targeting something from this phone?...as you can see from any thread(s), AP and Ori works difference in-term of warranty and seller's services...others depends on how the phone works...can't say much about it... Is there any difference between AP set and the Ori set for this phone? QUOTE(dewa_poyo @ Dec 1 2008, 11:09 PM) hello guys what's your current firmware?...are there any other problems occur from your phone?...if it works great then just maintain with your current firmware... i just got my n96 last week. but i never change/ugrade the firmware. any suggestion on uograding the firmware? must i do that? right now, the only problem i noticed is that no navi wheel function. i looked into help content, but still cannot enable it. the first thing i asked the 'penjual' is, show me nokia's phone with navi wheel and he recomended me n96. but then, now i feel like being cheated! try to check this website,hoped it answer or showed how to solved your problem... nokian96.net website nokian96.net/forum all the best...do report in with your phone situation(s) here...  |

QUOTE(sharkteef @ Dec 2 2008, 11:42 PM) eh hang on abit, owh?...really?...Renee would bundle it with gmxt for free?...then,those bought AP-set from her is so lucky... diff between ap and ori sure got apart from warranty. the gps system trial period is one of em. when consulted with renee (lowyat garage sales), ap sets donthave free trial period for nokia maps. only for ori. thats why when u buy from her (ap set), she'll bundle it with gmxt for free. where else when u buy ori, u have a certain period of time trial for smart2go. yups!...Ori-set mostly you're tied with certain period of time for its software this and that... QUOTE(aruja_69 @ Dec 2 2008, 11:59 PM) To me, I always get ori bcos the casing is cover by Ori like mine N76, N95, N95 8GB and E90..all casing got replacement if faded...not like ap set.... yups!...still wondering if Nokia putting some serious thought in N96?...please don't kept themselves in "silent-mode"... Added on December 3, 2008, 11:07 amStill no news about V12???  |

QUOTE(dewa_poyo @ Dec 15 2008, 11:29 PM) hi, i just found new problem. actually i just reallized that i cannot online via wlan. the funny things is i topuped rm50 just to update the firmware using 3g connection and u know what, about 85% the download completed, connection lost. insufficient credit. know i have to re topup again.. aiseh.. whats wrong with nokia. they privide WOW specs inside thier web. but then the actual product really made me kecewa.. anyone got the same problem with me. care to share any solution? i faced the same problems...can't detect and connect to wifi...supposed updating the firmware through OTA but wifi can't be detected...  so,need to update using cable...but around 3-4times failed to download completely the new firmware...now,even with the new firmware,wifi still unusable and will hanged...  from what i see...updating using cable,the fail size kind-of very very big...119MB...or using OTA the size is the same or other way?... |

QUOTE(dewa_poyo @ Dec 16 2008, 09:49 PM) hi,unknowndevices, yups!..updated to the latest firmware...but the wifi issue haven't solved yet...so disappointed... have u upgrade it yet? i topup rm60 just to update the firmware. i did it, but it seems like nothing different. rm60 for 5 megabyte file. this is madness. but the wlan connection problem is still the same. any news from others? my advice...better you sync with PC Suite...using USB cable and download firmware from your PC/notebook...save your money,no need to waste just to update firmware...  |

QUOTE(dewa_poyo @ Dec 17 2008, 02:31 AM) haha, yeah, thought so too. that what i'm hoping from the latest firmware,fixing the wifi-thingy problem...but its not...so disappointing... but i really hope the wlan prob will be solved in future. that is 1 of the main reason i buy n96. by the way can u feel any different after updating the new firmware? anyway thanks for the advice:D the differences from what i see...more of performance and sound better and other kindly the same...till now no big or serious usage yet...  but still faced 2-3 times phone hanged...that's another big disappointment... |

QUOTE(aruja_69 @ Dec 18 2008, 10:18 AM) Take time bro...or sis..handphone nowdays are like that....up and down. I still prefer to N96 then N85.... there you go...a BIG support from SUPPA phone collector...don't play~play with him...   QUOTE(ongpok @ Dec 18 2008, 08:12 PM) i have owned a zitron set, no problem with my WLAN so far (fw ver. 12.043) that's the problem...up till now,still confuse,everytime when searching for wifi,half-way surely hanged...previous and latest firmware also like that... BTW, why dont u update ur firmware by Nokia Software Updater?  QUOTE(booooster @ Dec 18 2008, 10:04 PM) Can install on screen qwerty for n96? mind to elaborate your question?... QUOTE(Andrew @ Dec 18 2008, 10:53 PM) I've just purchased a N96 a few days ago (AVAXX). No problems with the firmware updating (I did it via Nseries PC Suite while connected to my laptop, and my laptop was connected online via Wireless LAN). as what i mentioned above...can't use wifi or even searching half way hanged...really disappointed... I've also been able to access and surf the web and check email via WLAN without difficulties or connection problems. Overall, I'm very pleased with it. QUOTE(ongpok @ Dec 19 2008, 12:18 AM) i just have some battery problem, it drains very quickly, emptied my battery just in one day! i did not leave any running app in the background on idle... this one can't say much also...the most the battery can stay around two days or probably three days(only if there's no action upon it )... |

QUOTE(dewa_poyo @ Dec 19 2008, 05:53 PM) good day everyone. i wonder what would happened if we do hard-reset or factory-setting?...would there be "missing" lots of thingy?... i still got problem with wlan. right now im staying at kampus, so the internet coonection very suck. that's why i didn't update the firmware via sofware updater. okey, so there is an application inside my phone called mobitubia for downloading youtube file. but until today i still cannot use it. and about the avi file, anyone can play avi file inside their phone? N96 is still young, just give it a chance to grow. hehe:D |

QUOTE(aruja_69 @ Dec 27 2008, 12:49 AM) I think all these problem is settle with the new update..mine is fine.. that's the problem...even with the latest firmware,still got issue on the wifi-thingy...really disappointed... previously wanted to update OTA,but couldn't access wifi,then update using USB,got problem as half-way surely the download-thingy stopped and re-download again....don't know why and it takes really long time to finish download(as somemore the size become very BIG)... QUOTE(Andrew @ Dec 27 2008, 01:18 AM) Agreed with aruja. I'm very satisfied with my N96. that makes us(the one with problems) jealous and frustrated with the phone...eventhou normal usage didn't encounter much problems,just sad can't access to wifi as what other users are enjoying their phone at full-performance... |

QUOTE(Andrew @ Dec 28 2008, 04:55 PM) I'm sorry to hear of your predicament. thanks for the advices...probably not the the shop but would try to head to the Nokia Service Centre...as i remember,this kind of problems shop can't do a lot,scared they would charge upon something else,as i bought an Original set and get the trusted one handling the problem,just hoped Nokia won't take long time to settle this kind of problem... I would advise you to bring the phone back to the shop you purchased it from and ask them to test the set or arrange an exchange if possible. |

QUOTE(aruja_69 @ Dec 29 2008, 12:53 AM) I never try the wifi yet with the new update....but if u got Nokia Care..i think they will reflash your hp again unless the motherboard got prob.. that's why,might consider before going...anyway,other than that,everything works normal...somemore,n96 battery wasn't that great,doesn't think will do so much with it... QUOTE(smashpOp @ Dec 29 2008, 06:42 PM) thanks for the tips...how i hoped the wifi-thingy can works like normal,but its not... |
