My E71 behaved weird again today..I turned on the camera and a message came out saying 'another application is using the camera" and I can't use the camera. Had to turn it off using the red power button and restart the phone to use the camera. Went to the Nokia centre again and the tech guy checked my phone memory. Said its free memory was low .. down to 10 MB from the 120 MB built in RAM..filled with downloaded GPS maps, pics, etc. Sort of told me that if it behaved funny check the phone's free  memory. He transferred the offending files to my memory card (except contacts which cannot be moved) and freed the memory. Hopefully the phone won't behave "weird" again. Can check Ram usage by going to settings > option > memory details to see how much free memory your phone has. Mine is using 13 MB at the moment with 110 MB free. Hopefully it remains OK.

Quick questions: How to setup e-mail? Hotmail can or not?
We should have an owner list + an recommended application list.

Ok, how about Yahoo Mail?
Hope you dont mind answering even though its probably asked before. Reason being, I dont use much of a Gmail.

Alrighty - thanks a lot!

Now, I have installed Garmin Mobile XT version 5 with a free map. I've been wondering should I turn off A-GPS so I dont get charge for data rate? Or it doesnt affect anything since I'm using GMXT rather than Nokia Maps?

Yea, it comes with Yahoo 2Go! but I am kinda tempted to download version 3 available on the net instead.

Is having A-GPS enabled so dangerous? With it, I can still get signal in a moving car but without it, I can barely get any signal even while standing still in the middle of the road.

I take it as none of you has any A-GPS enabled?
I installed it myself.
FOC.
Where are you from and why would you want to buy from Msia when you're not from here then?

this phone got chinese word support?

I got it yesterday !!!

hey guys... just wanna inform u guys bout the problem i faced with this phone....

at first my nokia maps GPS is working fine.... then i installed solitaire which is default in my phone....
suddenly the nokia maps GPS stopped working... it will load till about 30% then suddenly it stops the loading n an error msg pops out. it says to go to www.nokia.com/maps to update my application.
i did it a few times but still the same thing...
then i uninstalled the solitaire but the problem persist...
so i reset my phone using the "reset to factory setting" n still the same thing...
i gave up n sent it back to nokia service centre yesterday...
it says to pick it up today...

Also another problem alltogether, sometimes when i press the menu button, it still stays in the home screen...

quite a sad thing to happen to such a fine phone.... quite disappointing especially when it is an ori zitron set...

and can u pls tell me how u installed it urself for FOC? thanks... 

meaning i can type and read chinese sms ?

Ermm... My set is fr UK and doesn;t has Chinese character... How can I install Chinese character ah?

Thanks...

Oh... hmmm... Thanks... Gosh... Can we reflash ourself?? hmmmm

2 questions here...

1) Is it possible to turn off the camera sound when u're taking a picture?

2) Besides the notification light, is there a way to enable sound/vibration to know that i have a missed call or an unread msg/email? cos i'm pretty busy most of the time n i tend to forget that i have not read my msg. As i put my phone in my pocket, i can't see the notification light.

So is there any solution? thanks! 

cheers guys!

I have been usng a 3rd party software for taking picture without shutter sound. Try it. Here's the.... LINK

But for the second part nothing much u can do, there aren't any settings. Only possible is a shareware I found but need to pay. Don think u will want that.

guys..pardon me for my noobness..this is my first symbian phone..was wondering how do you guys apply the theme?do you need to install the theme or just normally apply?

Hi all,
i`m just wondering tht using E71 GPS is there any charges on the phone bill !?

can any1 point me where can i get a full instruction for doing the garmin GPS installation !?

Hi guys,

I got myself an E71 too. Its an AP set from Taiwan but it doesn't matter since I could change the product codes. They ran out of Singaporean APs so most of the units are from other countries. The phone is nice and its great. Happy to join you guys.

Will the backup feature possible to restore everything after updating the firmware? or do I have to reinstall most of the programs?

the backup feature got options where u can check which stuff u want to backup. go check all if u want
if not mistaken upgrade firmware wont delete anything from your memory card..just phone memory

wah.... i'm not like an E71 expert, seriously!!!

And to post all my knowledge is kind of impossible as I learn it through trial and error. Just play around and u will get it.

I agree with a new thread for it but hey, I really have no time for it all fellow E71 users. Maybe we can set up a team to contribute to the thread. I can contribute to the PDAir pouch review though and some picture of my phone with the pouch on.

Superman is an expert here as well. I'll vote for him to start the new thread.

Ok if they say certificate expired,u must change ure date(change it to year 2007),then u install the app..after u install the app,change back thw date to 2008,,,n ure done!

I heard its bulky, it is true?
