Does anybody know anything about this mymaxis deal of RM1688 for N82? Apparently bloody maxis locked the left soft-key to "mymaxis" which is some suckass wap portal. anybody knows how to remove this?

plus there is an acute "shortage" of N82 in low yat and sg wang all the low life dealers jacked up the price to "RM2899" - that's a figure they pulled out of their ass. mad.gif

Hiii... The RM1,688 deal only applies if you sign up for Maxis RM150 Value Plan. I signed up for RM80 Value Plan so I got the N82 for RM1,888. I was at RM75 before that. Then I also signed up for Extra 5 - 1cent per sms to 5 maxis no. and 8 cents per min to 5 maxis no.

It can be removed, that soft-key. Just soft-reset your phone with *#7370#.

I finally managed to install these on my N82:
SmartMovie 3.41
Profimail 2.87
Garmin Mobile XT 4.10.40
Opera 8.65
X-Plore 1.20
Emtube v1.00
Calcium 3rd v1.21
Device Status by Nokia 1.1.95

Somehow, I cannot copy the SimplifiedDictionaryDB to \Memorycard\Private saying it's access denied all the time - anyone know why?

You can't access that folder in your phone. You must take out the memory card and open that folder with a computer. Hope it helps. icon_idea.gif

Yo, download Garmin XT v4.10.60, it's better then Nokia Maps. Also the latest Malsing maps are really detailed. I contributed 1 POI, 2 errors in naming and they gave me the unlock code to the new maps.

Yes, GarminXT is a lot better than Nokia Map. I'm using ver4.10.60 with v2.20G.

Hmmm... I noticed something interesting today. I got a belt pouch for my N82. Each time I take out my phone from the pouch, the screen show as if it entered camera mode and back to standby mode.

I did some test and noticed that the magnet causes the camera to switch on (@_@)

I put the back of my phone with the camera cover to one of the magnets (which is near the camera cover when the phone is in the pouch) and viola, camera interface activated, and as I keep the phone there, I can even take shots (which are black because the cover is closed). When I put the phone 1 inch away, it goes back into standby mode.

I then tested by putting the phone in the pouch and just do some light shakes (the pouch is slightly thicker then the phone) and the camera activates and closes and activates and closes, sometimes the forward camera activates (@_@)

So something at the cover mechanism is reacting to the magnet on the pouch. Anyone else experience this? I got the pouch from Novacell.

probably the built in camera switch uses the magnetism mechanism to detect the opening and closing of the switch hence if you bring a magnet close the phone will mistaken it as you opening the shutter switch. just a guess

Today, when my fren took a look at my N82, he returned it to me immediately with an ERROR on the screen and says it needs to be restarted - that was quite scary. Anyone encountered this problem before?

For Google Maps, do we download the .prc or .cab format?

Yea it's better than Nokia maps, its true. Now I'm trying to unlock to the new maps. How do we check map version?

Yea, Maxis doesnt lock the right key. Its just that I'm not willing to go through all the steps you provided above for someone who doesnt even bother exploring his phone (the other guy complaining above). I realized it went away when I soft-reset my phone so I posted that workaround for him.

Dont be too concern about the pricing, you got yourself a good investment. Tinker and play with it. I got mine for Rm1,888 Zitron with the Maxis Mobile Deal.
