lol....i was thinking of selling it as well...gonna migrate to iphone...hehe

new version camera also 2mp....u wan a good picture juz use digi cam la...hahahha

i couldnt agree more that gps is very useful....go anywhere...i really mean anywhere in msia u wont get lost....unless no satelite reception la...hahah

u need to at least plug in an earphone either nokia or other brands to work the radio....if u wan to listen the radio in using the in-built speaker u would still need to plug in the earphones....and no the earphone doesnt function as an antenna....coz when i plug in other earphone ie for ipod...i still can listen to the radio....

u juz gotta wait for it to lock the satelite....about 5 to 10 mins for 1st lock...juz wait patiently...

find an open space...ie stand under the open sky with nothing to block u...in the middle of the road...haha...but watch out for cars la...

how come? changing phone eh? =)

the free maps by malsing are kinda outdated....if u need the latest map...u'll need to contribute at least 2 point of interest (POI) to get the unlock key from the admin....cheers..

izit? never really tried using nokia 2.0 for the gps...does it provide turn by turn navigation?

but switching on gps really consumes alot of battery power...like wat u said....i can last about 1hr 30mins ....hahah

i duno now it works anot...but b4 i update to the latest firmware...i need to install the accelerometer plugin and then the program....remember to install both programs in the phone memory....voila u switch on the program and swing ur phone around to mimic the lightsaber sound....

first lock to satellite usually takes longer as in like 4 to 6 minutes...make sure u're in stationary mode ie not moving around....u'll get satellite lock in a shorter period of time....

OT: i'm saying bye bye to my n95 8gb...changing hp edi....hehe

ya...leaving the family edi...but i'll still be here to provide support whenever i can....haha...nevertheless n95 8gb is a very fun and powerful phone...juz that i wanted to try some other phones...haha

latest firmware is v20

not that sensitive as in it is slow to update ur movements? did u slide out the keypad? u need to slide out the keypad to make the gps more sensitive

lol @ snake

anyway....so far n95 8gb's gps has been performing well...altho somethings the signal can be lost and it drains quite a far bit of battery but still it is very reliable....i've used windows mobile's gps before as well...performance wise...not bad but reliability bad...half way using the whole phone restarts itself...and u're lost in the middle of nowhere....

well.....i'm on vista and i can update my firmware tho....wat problem do u encounter when u update on vista?

u install the pc suite from the dvd right? update the necessary files and try again?

u install the pc suite from the dvd alredi then u update using the net thru the pc suite u juz installed...after that try to load the app installer again...

8gb is one advantage, it comes with more ram as well 128mb and the screen is larger and bigger battery capacity...

ok i tell u wat...delete all the files and download the pc suite for vista from nokia website....have u try that?

the signal meter wont show if u're in 3.5G unless u start to browse the net or activate the connection...if u're in 3.5g coverage area u will be automatically connected using 3.5g which the signal bar will show...if not u will only use 3g or edge whichever connection is available...

it really depends on how u use it tho...if u're actively into gps...it wont last more than 1.5hrs....

u can get malaysia and singapore maps at www.malsingmaps.com

wa...left it untouched can go dead in a day? thats very weird...coz mine if i charge it fully...super seldom use...juz put there standby...can last up to 4 days max....wat firmware u are using and are there any background programs running?
