Hey guys, first of all, i am a totally noob in purchasing handphone.
But i am kind of interested in getting this model since there i already asked for a recommendation in the specific thread and got a response to buy this model sweat.gif

So i would like to enquire, what should i ask when purchasing this model at a handphone shop?
Just afraid that i might get cheated for broken items, or got charged over-price.
What is the range of price that i must expect from this handphone?
Do i need to switch my sim card to cope the phone's features?

Refer to this thread for guides on buying phone - http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/534463

N82 is basically around RM1380 from known AP company, might be cheaper if from noob AP. You can still play with the phone without a SIM card in, just that you cannot call or text with it.

You are using Garmin on your N82 or it's a separate device?

It's kinda weird. My phone shown 6 bars of battery. Then i usb transfer with my pc. (Extremely slow)About 30 mins of transferring. I pull out and my battery turn to 2 bars. I was like wtf... then I take 3 pics with flash, straight away low battery. Then i try restart the phone but it seems like the battery really low jor. sigh... the battery life really....wtf lo
*
Sometimes the N82 shows the wrong information. When it's 6 bars, after I reboot the phone, it drops to 4 bars. Not all the time, but just some times. Sometimes when I suspect something because only 1 bar is used for all day long, I reboot but it shows the same thing.

like some certain phone numeric pad there is added vf some EXTRA word like arabic,pinyin,thai word n so on.... icon_rolleyes.gif

No such thing on my keypad. Depends on supplier I think. I did ask first before I buy, just in case. I don't want to end up like someone's phone with those vodafone branding and weird characters on the keypad. Just spoils the beauty of the phone.

By the way, if no one is wanting to join the LYN Flickr group, I think I will delete it by this weekend. Just noticed there is actually another group for the entire LYN members.

This means your phone are from SEA or China, because from what I know is that one of my friend's N82 from Europe doesn't have those Chinese stroke printed on the keypad, but my another friend's N82 china set have it, some of the chinese strokes peels off already and he told me that it is not printed, but using some sort of tatoo method (dono hw 2 explain sweat.gif ).

Mind to tell us your N82 product code?? You can get it by remove your battery and look at the sticker on top of your sim card brackets.

mine is 0566174, google it and it is from SEA. tongue.gif
*
Mine is also 0566174. But I think mine is an Arab unit because the manuals stuff in the box are partly in Arab, and the Nokia Maps is loaded with Arab maps. But yet, not Arab character on the keypad. Perhaps they changed it, and that is what causes the squeaking sound on my keypad flex.gif

How much does that thing cost? And if you just want the phone to stand for taking timed photo, you can just pull out the memory card slot and twist it a little to the side. It will then be able to balance up.

Battery life only last 4 and a half hours?!
And i am thinking that it will at least last 2 days with a little shooting with the camera.
Can anybody kind enough to confirm the battery power of the N82?

Much appreciated.
*
4 and a half hours is the talk time. Stand by up to 225 hours, that's what claimed by Nokia. Personally I charge once a day for a moderate use, quite a few pictures + Wifi + 15 minutes loudspeaker mp3 + fooling around with the phone. With lesser usage, it will last more than 1 and a half day. No worries at all if you can charge once a day (night time, unless you are camping whatsoever).

At least you will still be able to bring that phone back alive at the end of the day.

Unless you are taking timed photos frequently, I think it should be fine.

i always charge my phone once my batt goes down by 3-4 bars.
i dont like seeing my phone die the next  day before even dinner tongue.gif

I charge when it goes to 2 bars. 3 bars sometimes when it's the beginning of the day. It's not cool to have the phone died when you are out or something.

hi...i'm a new owner of a N82 as well.....still exploriong the phone...symbian is really new to me as i have been using a Nokia 2600 previously...so this is a big thing for me...haha...

btw, why is it when i want to use the dictionary, it says, "Dictionary word information missing. Install word database". I'm sorry if its a noobie ques, but i really know nothin bout it....
*
Meaning you have to install a word database first, I guess. I'm using a third MSDict, "ahem". Not a bad one after all, just Google.

I went to survey the price of N82 at a shop yesterday.. the says that original cost only Rm1490 something. then i asked them what is the company? they told me 'connection'.. i never heard of such name.. then i ask the warranty period. handsfree and other accessories only 3 months warranty.. i don't think it's original set
*
Don't think they are selling authorized set. Haven't heard of that company before and that shouldn't be that cheap.

You need to have an account with them before having access to those files

Anyone know how should I clean the camera lens? Sometimes I forgot to close the cover and there's a little dust in it.

Nokmote and the like won't work on my N82. I can't start those apps after installing. No response no matter how many times I click on the icon.

You are using Nokmote? I should try once again I guess. Do you install it and start it right way or you need to install something else first to make it work?

QUOTE(xk2 @ Aug 20 2008, 06:08 PM)
u download it free or u purchase ? mind to share the link if u download ?  smile.gif  if got serial key then best brows.gif

You might want to Google it instead of asking them here. A closed N82 thread isn't pleasant.

Did you install N95 Accelerometer plugin by the way?


Damn! I installed N95 Accelerometer plugin and it works like a charm now. Hurray rclxms.gif

P/s: Playing bounce with nokmote requires a good deal of hand-eye coordination sweat.gif

hi there,

Would like to ask something related to GMXT. I followed all the procedures as stated in the installation of Garmin Mobile in post #6.

However, when i opened the GMXT application, and went to view map all those, it doesnt show any map.

Anyone knows what's wrong with it?

Thx.
*
Try zooming into it. You will see the map after zooming if you installed it correctly.

battery juice since accelerometer in standby waiting for command lols

Yea, notice a sharp decline in battery juice. But I shall wait longer and see if I can live with this. Installed Phone Guardian at the same time, which is standby all the while to guard the phone from thieves or whatsoever. I guess I just should bear with the battery it will use since phone > battery.

Anyone else here uses Phone Guardian too?
