Is it possible to receive/answer a call directly via loudspeaker for e71? unlike e61i that need to answer a call first then go into option to choose loudspeaker.
*
for nokia phones, u dun need to go into option to enable loudspeaker.

once a call is incoming, u just press accept, the "loudspeaker" icon is displayed on yr bottom right, u press the right action key to talk on loudpeaker mode. this is actually a better arrangement for privacy purposes. some calls, u dun want the whole world to hear .. hehehehe.

ya ya zeyoon, mikelanding covered most of the theme links. the one that i like most are those from pizero and taieb. my personal preference is dark coloured themes as i find reading text in white is more comfy for my eyes tongue.gif


Added on September 16, 2008, 2:19 amkeep a lookout over here too, some good suggestions :

i totally agree with eye. dark coloured themes make msg reading much much more easier.

but right, i went to E71Blog.com and downloaded a theme. the file is in 'sis' format. i saved it in my memory card and then executed the file from my File Manager. It starts with 'Preparing Installation'. But after a while an error msg pops up and say Certificate Error.

is the file corrupted or something? or am i doing it the right way?


Added on September 17, 2008, 2:00 pmjust wanna ask the sifu's out there. my internet connection settings for my E71 is set as Maxis Wap. and when i surf sites, its so freaking slow. is it cause i use Wap settings?


Added on September 17, 2008, 2:01 pmerm, i am surfing FB with my phone la. i'm viewing on mobile mode. still it takes like forever to send a message in FB.

zeyoon, follow this installation guide and they will install fine wink.gif

e71blog.com : How To Avoid Application & Theme Installation Issues


slow surf on maxis, not your phone's fault, is maxis. maxis 3g was totally out yesterday. even now when it runs, it is struttering. i wish i can sue them for dis-service.

yes, the radio is streamed over the internet connection.

the application is free.

if u connect on free wifi, it is free.

if u are on 3G unlimited, consider the application as a bonus to maximise your monthly 3G expenses. biggrin.gif

is this applicable to other countries radio(s) worldwide?...Japan?...US?...

Yes, it can connect to countries worldwide. That is its sole purpose.

This is only applicable for those radio stations who stream their broadcasts over the internet though. Bear in mind that not all radio stations broadcast over the internet. Thus you may not find your favourite stations which do terrestrial broadcasts only.

When i filter for US, there are 430 stations available for you to choose. Where as for Japan, there are only 2, Hong Kong 5, Msia 2 (domestic, u dun use ip radio .. hehehe just for info), Spore 1, UK 119, Ozzie 20, India 9, etc etc. Indonesia, China & Taiwan are not listed in the country search tho.

It's similar to those internet radios one uses on the pc or notebook.

owh?...that's ok...as long as can listen to other countries radio(s)...
anyway...this internet radio function,can it be downloaded by other model?...is it just a software and straight can be used or only selected models?...
*
here is a listing of compatible models :

Music Device Compatibility

most, if not all of the apps, can work on other models with the same symbian OS. can test out and see, if dun work, just uninstall .. hehehe.

obviously, i m trying to share those apps that are useful/playful (in my opinion) and that can work on the e71. keep the lowyat e71 community growing maaaa ... the e71, so far, is the best phone i bought todate in terms of usability and quality for that price. i thought it would be nice if everyone can share their apps.

rest assured tat it is not yr fone. it is becoz of the 3g services, they r not up to par. my maxis 3g service sucks sad.gif the connection times out often, in particular, weak signal areas. wat to do, in a country where "everything boleh", like dat one ler.

i hv similar issues with realplayer when i try to view utube. u shud try mobitubia. it's better for watching utube on the fone. im using it on my e71.

the default e71 earphone is good for voice calls only. for music, it is horrid. i wud recommend tat u get a 2.5mm to 3.5mm audio jack and a reasonable earphone to enjoy yr mp3 collection better. do note that sound quality for utube is inferior. internet radio stations, depending on the bitrate they are streaming, can be awful when heard on a good earphone ... hehehe

... tried watching and downloading utube with realplayer this morning, connection is back to normal in my area, so no timed out.

Here's the free audio book reader workable on the e71:

Nokia Audio Book Reader
Nice gui, optimised for 320 x240, but only play amr-wb codec. The Nokia Audio Book Manager is available for download at the same link, this is installed on yr pc/notebook to convert yr audio books to amr-wb for transfer to your e71

Nokia Audio Book Reader


If you do not want to spend time on conversion and play yr audio books (mp3) direct, you can try the platysoft's Scheherazade. Works on the e71, the gui is bland but hey it works and it's free


Scheherazade

enjoy!
