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.

downloading atm icon_idea.gif
gonna take me awhile,though looking at the instructions on pg 1 laugh.gif
but thanks to dzi921 for the step by step rclxms.gif


Added on February 14, 2008, 10:53 ambtw,no one using oggplay?
that's terrible! tongue.gif
google oggplay,then convert your mp3s to ogg(but if your using m4a/aac,then there's little difference happy.gif )

for those who use their gps constantly,what's your in car setup?

do you hold the phone constantly while driving sweat.gif
do you place the phone on the floor/cup holder/arm rest? sleep.gif

or do you have a specific holder for it? icon_idea.gif

i got myself a pda/hp holder,and an in car charger thumbup.gif
so can gps pretty much all day long and not have to worry about killing my phone battery the minute i reach my location laugh.gif

Regarding my battery issue, I tried today again with my GPS, phone calls, photo taking (with flash), until now, still got more then 1/2 battery on meter. And I used GPS even more this time, about 45 minutes.

What was different, I didn't carry my phone in my pouch, but in my pocket. I'm guessing, the magnet on the pouch is causing the camera to activate in the pouch without me knowing and when it keep activating and deactivating it drains hell of a lot of battery juice. Just my deduction. Will test again tomorrow and see any difference again. Will update you guys and gals.
*
hmm.gif today i used GPS for about 30 minutes, wifi abit, surfed using 3g/3.5g a few minutes,and took a few useless pictures in class,and it went down a bar.
a few games later it went down another bar! rclxub.gif

maybe it's just me,but the battery is kinda weird...sometimes goes down easily,sometimes takes forever to go down laugh.gif

QUOTE(xXAaronXx @ Feb 19 2008, 07:31 PM)
Hows the sound quality for this phone compare 2 N81?
*
personally,i think the sound kinda sux doh.gif
even measured on it's own.. sweat.gif
i used a 3230 before this,and the ringtone i used which had to be modified(had to make the volume louder,since the phone had soft speakers) sounds even worst on the n82.
it is somewhat louder,but during certain parts of the song it goes shallow(the sound volume)

when i have the time,i'll try a new set of the same tone.. hmm.gif

QUOTE(BBXiong @ Feb 19 2008, 09:32 PM)
well, from what u guys said, i'd say this phone have a buggy firmware??
i've used 6680 for 3 year now(yeah, kinda old phone) but nvr really discover that much bug, infact, cant really remember discovering any bug...
maybe just cos my phone have less function, that require less programming...
*
did you have the latest firmware on that phone?
maybe when you bought it,it had the latest firmware on board?

sometimes upgrading the firmware does wonders tongue.gif

QUOTE(wongkev @ Feb 19 2008, 10:12 PM)
that cinabeng place underneath the escallator in selayang capitol is SUCH A WASTE OF TIME. one guy said they are selling zitron set for RM2100. then a fat chabo came around and said RM2300. but have to wait for somebody to send from their "HQ in KL" and that will take 1 hour. a few phone calls later, the cinabeng told me there is nobody to send from "HQ". i offered to goto their HQ myself to collect the set but they said "cannot cause that place is not a shop" etc.

moral of the story is : N82 does not exist! they've sold out! zitron is a stupid company that does not bother to restock their goods. they probably launched this phone with like 100 phones in their stable. it's really irritating to goto all the nokia shops which ADVERTISE N82 in BIG BILLBOARDS etc to have them tell you they have no stock. same story in KLCC ikano lowyat sg wang and even selayang bloody capitol.

same goes for MAXIS advertising like RM1688 or RM1888 etc which is all bullcrap cause they don't have the phone. they promised to call me back "tomorrow" or "later" etc. well, "tomorrow" was 2 days ago!!

i'm so sick of this. if you don't have the goods, pull all the fragging advertisements!!! such an eye sore!!!!

why i need to buy a new phone?? because my 11 month old dopod 810 has been doing the matrix on me for the past 5 months. everytime i send it back to SIS in timbuktu-alam all they did is hard reset the thing and said everything is okay etc etc. bull crap. the "okay" didn't last very long. every once in a while matrix will come on. literally. the screen will come up with some weird display and will hang even when you're not doing anything. what a waste of my fragging 3000 bucks!!! frag frag frag. 11 months of half baked use. that's like 272 per month to have the fragging phone screw you up!

we've just gone past CNY,so i think it'll take some time for them to restock(this is malaysia,you know? tongue.gif )
be patient dude,who knows you might be able to get the black n82 brows.gif drool.gif

QUOTE(snakevenom @ Feb 19 2008, 11:27 PM)
bought at low yat, well price kind of hefty a bit but meh~ bought it at RM195.

195 for 8gb?? shocking.gif
lol i remember buying a 4gb fake mspd for 140 a few months ago doh.gif

tempted to get the 8gb myself drool.gif

do report back if you happen to fill it up to the full 8gb tongue.gif

on a seperate note,anyone manage to check their processor speed?
i tried checking it with some kind of software,which i cant find atm rclxub.gif doh.gif and it stated the speed as 206mhz blink.gif
i thought this phone was in the lower 300s? sweat.gif
anyone can confirm? icon_question.gif

btw,anyone know of a good screenshot program?
sucks not being able to take screenies on this phone doh.gif

just plug in the headset(need the headset,as it acts as an antenna sleep.gif)
a few months/years ago,n70 users(IINM) used to short circuit their phone connectors to use the radio without the headset sweat.gif
bold move,but i guess to each his own laugh.gif

If internet radio, we just go to those Hitz.FM / Fly FM website and register and it will play on the browser, right? Is that the one you're talking about?

this site is great,IMO.
i did a run a few hours ago,and the application installed on your N82 will use the GPS to calculate:
1)how far you go(distance)
2)your highest and lowest altitudes
3)your max speed
4)average speed
5)slowest point on your route
6)fastest point
7)draws your route

and when you upload the data to the site,it shows your route on google maps automatically thumbup.gif good stuff!! rclxm9.gif

Go to your application, in the first tab, left click your soft button go to Options.
Then go to N-Gage Settings.
Then go to Connection Settings.
Connection Permission set to : Always ask before connecting
Preferred Access Point : Change it to your WLAN, NOT your 3G/GPRS
Alternative Access Point : Also change to your WLAN

I hope that'll help.
