can sum1 teach me how 2 use the Maxis 3G wap on this phone? i am getting the error message "packet data: connection not allowed"
*
Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > APN control. Switch that to inactive. Default PIN2 number should be 12345.

Note: If you get it wrong. Pls try only max of 2 times. The 3rd time u try and still got it wrong.. Get prepared to call maxis for the PUK2 number lol laugh.gif

Cheers. hope it helps

Is there any possible way to do this :

Vibrating alert ON for incoming calls and vibrating alert OFF for incoming message? I dun like the phone to vibrate due to "incomng sms" but at the same time i want vibrating alert  for "incoming calls" only

ty

Another things is the Camera have timer countdown (example set 10 sec and the phone will capture image after 10sec). But the problem is hte N82 canot "STAND" to be placed stationary. Any idea how to place the phone stationary?
*
1. Unfortunately.. there isnt a way to do that unless theres a 3rd party software/hack to do it.

2. Ive seen videos on youtube where this guy opens up the memory card compartment and pull the cover of the memory card facing outwards (camera's side) and place it on the table and it'll stand.. try it. it works for me wink.gif

Guys, i need professional advice on this. Just bought my n82 few days ago. The problem is with my battery, it seems like the battery cant last even 7-8hours per day. FYI, i only use on phone calls and sms-ing, no wifi and music player. Is it normal? should i claim warranty ?Need advice pls
*
Go claim warranty. Mine can last 1 FULL day with heavy usage (lots of taken pics, wifi an hour or 2, music an hour or 2, average 10 minutes of calls, alot of sms). If idle leh.. 2 days charge once.

Oic, at first i thought N82 battery performance was bad, cant even last 1 day on normal usage for calling and sms-ing. First time usage have to charge 8hours right?
*
Nope. I didnt. That time i cannot wait to use my brand new baby. So once charge full, I straight use already tongue.gif Cannot resist the temptation blush.gif

highwindz88,
This will get technical. For a 2GB with FAT (FAT16) file system, it is using 32KB cluster size (default).
e.g. If a file is 100KB in size, it will take up 4x32KB space = 128KB. The remaining 28KB will be useless/redundant.

Of course in FAT you can use a smaller cluster, e.g. 8KB (for discussion sake). For a 100KB file, it will use 13x8KB = 104KB. You will waste 4KB only if you use 8KB cluster compared to 32KB cluster.

The advantage of using bigger cluster is faster seek and read time, as the OS need to read from fewer clusters and shorter search time for each of the cluster. But it waste a lot of empty space.

To free up space, either you save all your files in 32KB cluster size (which is near impossible).

The free space will be released automatically when you delete the file. e.g. when you delete the 100KB file, it will free up 128KB (based on 32KB cluster for 2GB FAT file system)

If you don't understand any of my explanation above  rclxub.gif , read more about FAT/FAT32/NTFS and cluster size from
1) Google
2) Wiki
3) close one eye and accept it as how computer file system works. If you don't believe me, backup the entire memory card, and delete all files. You will get back all exact 2GB. That's 2x1024x1024x1024 bytes = 2,147,483,648 bytes. Or 2,048MB. Or 2,097,152KB.  rclxub.gif

Some of the drawbacks of N82

1. The phone body design even though looks nice, but actually poorly manufactured compared to other Nseries like N95 or N95 8GB. (Look at my previous post regarding the sides gaps)

2. Battery not lasting. (10 msg, 10min call, 2 hour game, 2 hour wifi, 30mins touch here touch there) battery low already.

3. Everything micro. USB and Charger is micro, so when u go out, make sure bring charger coz ur buddy with N95 8GB or other Nseries cant lend u his.

4. The phone likes to lay down and rest. If u know wat i mean. (cant stand)

5. 2GB memory i think not enuf.

6. The D-pad a little hard to use. But u'll get used to it.

7. I still have problem installing animated Symbian S60 3rd themes.
*
1. It seems that every n82 comes with the gap whether u like it or not. I dont feel its manufactured poorly due this problem coz everyone has it sweat.gif Im starting to feel that it was designed to be like that. Dont ask me why. lolz laugh.gif

2. Battery life to me is GREAT. Atleast it can last a full day wit heavy usage. Considering you have a phone that can do so many different things (Unlike SE that dun have WiFi GPS and unlike PDAs which are HUMONGOUS). If you were a n80 user in the past as me, you will be grateful that you can fully utilize your phone and not worry it'll be dead before the day ends tongue.gif

3. yeah.. have to agree with you on this. But its no biggie rite? smile.gif

4. Thats coz its meant to be on its back i guess. Ive read somewhere that the back of your n82 is scratch proof? But I myself dont dare try icon_question.gif You know wat i mean rite? Its like "drop proof laptop!".. you dare to drop it? LOL laugh.gif

5. 2gb not enuf then buy more bigger mem card lor thumbup.gif look at it the bright side, you're able to have more storage space than n95 8gig if you want rclxms.gif

6. yeah.. d-pad can be frustrating at moments. But look at the built quality. Its better than having a joysticks. And you all know very well how easy joysticks are to spoil icon_rolleyes.gif

7. I tink with the FP2, n82 is able to support animated themes. I once saw a theme based on flash. Its really cool. It is total personalization. People are working on it. Jus be patient dude rolleyes.gif

One more thing i have to add.. Before i bought my n82, i was contemplating on either n95 8gig or n82. Wanna know why i chose n82? because of its candy bar form. I was previously an N80 user. my N80 was working very fine till the day its ORIGINAL warranty expired. cry.gif I went back to Nokia Care Center numerous times because of the slider form problems. I couldnt hear the other party because of the earpiece having problems and my 352x418 LCD had to be replaced due to the flex (the wire connecting the top half and bottom half of the slider) teared. mad.gif manyak mahal ohhhhhh

Cheers biggrin.gif

Another thing regarding GarminXT, after installing garmin, in the Gallery folder appears many picture and icon. Anyway to make it don't appear in gallery?

And the #key for font change during messaging, when press will auto copy/paste. The only solution i know is holding the menu button, but stlll annoying. Any new way to fix it?
*
1. Look for the photo files in the garmin folder and hide it. Just like how you hide files in your computer, do it with the garmin picture files. They should be in *.mbm extensions. Correct me if im wrong tongue.gif

2. Download and install garmin v4.10.80. That version fixed the bug but unfortunately, that version has another bug of its own (when switching from portrait to landscape or vice versa whilst garmin is talking will make garmin hang)

Cheers flex.gif

Using USB data transfer or direct from applications like Ybrowser and change attribute to hidden?

they are the same. applications like ybrowser gives u more functions over the files in your phone unlike the built in file browser.

If you ask me, I prefer that stupid multimedia key not working, as I don't use it (yet) and sometimes press wrongly.

Better still if can reprogram it to be the pen+edit key  rclxms.gif

If only theres a hack to change those keys. rolleyes.gif I wud really like that multimedia button to become the pen key whilst the gallery button (the one beside the shutter button) changed to multimedia button lolz tongue.gif

Just found another software deficiency.
If you create a new profile, for example you'd like some personal settings and call it "Home" (when at home where ringing tones are set much softer and maybe different tone), you can't rename that profile. It'll be called New Profile. The work around is to modify one of the preset profiles and use that named profile.
