Hello N95 users do you have any idea of price for changing new housing for N95? Mine is still under avaxx warrenty so should be exclude service charge right? And another thing will nokia service center fix the slider machanism problem on this phone? Which is a common issue.

Slider so fast spoil d?
I doubt that u can change the casing for free as the warranty doesn't really cover it for wear and tear, u will have to fork out $$$ if u wanna change

No la the slider loose lo like shaky then abit not as tight as the old time d. Not spoil la don get me wrong. My housing full of wear rough usage lol. So plan to change new housing lo.

ori casing would be great.....and nope, I dont have any more warranty....mine is a vietnamese AP set bougth in New Zealand with a ridiculous price and only 3months warranty =.=

i ask my friend who work in nokia care center so far i check front cover cost 60 plus, Back cover 40 plus, front keypad the navigation key 30 plus. If your phone without warrenty add 50 for service charge this can be change in amcorp mall or imbi.

Depends whether u want ori/normal casing... btw u still have 1 month warranty rite? why not wait till the warranty finishes only u change the cover

What r u talking? If the phone with warrenty go ahead and change la save the service charge and don tell me u expect ppl to use cheap A grade housing right? Plus to change whole housing 300 will be more than enough.

Yeah nokia use new rails but althought it fix the woobie stuff unfortunately this time it face some minor loose (up and down) something like not holding it tight. Well slider often cause problems.. Anyway just get use to it at least no more loose see saw phone and a reminder is not under warrenty so don think they change for free and for those who is still under original warrenty they will charge RM200++ my suggestion is wait till ur phone flex ribbon break onli change. I change whole housing and cost me RM300++ so make ur calculation. Bout the firmware i wish nokia post it fast cause now V20 seems damm buggy sometimes hang in the sudden WTF!

Thanks for the info. But my n95 v20 is working great no buggy at all and i think v20 is the best ever fw update. When new v21 available soon i'll wait and see other feedback before upgrade smile.gif

Now the firmware is available on the net unfortunately is EURO firmware if u don use chinese just flash to it using crack PHOENIX i hope u heard of it b4.... I just flash to V21 EURO1 and i love it soo much the update is magnificent love the media player now the sound seems to be louder and the bass is nice compare to previous firmware on the headphone and the UI respond is abit faster compare with V20. I give it a top score. You can also check from nokia outlet for the update i think they should already have the update. This firmware is a must flash firmware. Now what i haven found out is wheater is battery wise not. Soon to find out hehehe. So my conclusion is just update to it. And a hint for those who want to have silent mode during camera capture go for EURO1 cause APAC cant cancel the capture sound produce by camera. (For those who like to take sneek photo go and flash EURO firmware biggrin.gif ) TRY IT!!!!!! JUST CHANGE IT!!!! icon_rolleyes.gif

But EURO firmware don`t have chinese word support right?

Lol how many of you willing to go nokia center to flash firmware? They took few hours to flash it. So i don bother bout it at all. I use phoenix to flash not by changing to product code plus i don really like NSU it once damage my N73 b4 and the worst thing is AP set they say is not under thier warrenty therefore now i choose original. I think nokia malaysia is flexible as long u are under warrenty u can choose what firmware u wan i guess plus i does not affect the hardware software is just minor problem i think they wont void unlike europe. Yeah EURO can not read chinese but u can use FONT ROUTER if u wan which u can customize ur font to make it readable thought i a chinese but i m not chinese educated so chinese is not a matter for me for those who always type message in chinese better wait for APAC update. And i don know did u all notice in APAC the font is not as nice as EURO wan just my observation. icon_idea.gif

By the way for those who wan to flash their phone by using crack phonix kindly add me in shuyin1946@hotmail.com i will give some guide for u by the way a reminder take ur own risk to flash ur phone with crack phoenix.

What's The Probability Of It Becoming Dead If I Follow The Instructions Closely? tongue.gif How Long More To Wait..? yawn.gif

Haha the posibility for ur phone to brick is 70 30 lo if ur comp is error free and u don interupt the process while flash should be ok what i fear is system32 sometimes it will clash with the software this what happen to those unlucky ppl cause while flashing phone will boot to ADL mode like u see in NSU if the driver clash in ur system and is not detected during the flash then ur phone is good as dead cause there got timer for it to connect thats the thing i worried all along besides that everything sure work and to flash using phoenix u need 5 minutes.

oh yeah another thing now u can use the phoenix to flash ur phone does not mean in future u can flash ur phone cause phoenix got updates to support new firmware so if the next batch need higher version then current phoenix is useless therefore i was kind of shock cause N95 still under support in this version where N73 need higher version d which can not be crack therefore u need NSU to do the flashing job. Compare phoenix and NSU i prefer phoenix cause u can change the product code just by flashing the firmware with that specific product code and there got refurbrish option but too bad it does not reset the warrenty timer lol.
