Scary leh if update failure brick my own phone. Is there any major change with the battery life? That is my main concern over the new firmware update. Don't mind sharing any major changes to your N82 after update? Thxs!

I think there isn't any setting for you to remove it. This appplies to WLAN Scanning and Calender too. Except you deactivate "Active Standby".

wow..is it just me,or does the Ngage app take a shitload of battery life?

was on the train earlier,otw back.
had 1 hour to kill,so tried out dirk dagger (a ngage game) i didnt even reach my destination (<50 minutes of play time) and i had only 1 BAR left!
WTF doh.gif

Yes. You are correct. N-Gage games take lots of battery juice. Even I played games for 20 minutes, after full charge suddenly 1-2 bars of battery indicator dropped. Maybe N-Gage utilised the graphic accelerator.

My phone froze for the first time since I bought it late May. I had just downloaded a large file from email (5MB+), then listening to music while chatting on ebuddy. The freezing happened when I wanted to switch task from music player to ebuddy. I tried to reset the phone by using the power button without success. The screen just turned brighter but still showing the freezing screen. So had to resort to pulling out the battery.

One thing I don't like about N82 is the tight battery compartment and the slippery back. Tried a few times without avail so I went to fiddle with the manual in case I was doing anything wrong.

My phone was on the table when I was going through the manual. Then suddenly the screen turned black and the phone reset itself. What a relief! :-D Everything is fine now. Anyone had a similar experience? Btw, this is posted from my beloved phone ;-)

Last time I tested how long my phone's battery can last with "normal" usage. Such as:
- few calls a day
- some sms a day
- take a few pics, no flash
- less than 30mins wifi a day
- pda functions like calendar and notepad

In short, not intentionally playing with the phone. Was a hard test because it's hard to put this baby down! :-D Anyway, the battery lasted a good 5 days! I was impressed :-)

Hmm...your N82's battery life seems impressive. Is your phone's firmware V20 or V30? I tried my one before after full charge, can last about 70 hours. Roughly 3-4 days. But...I didn't off it all the while. N I didn't use the phone much. Just take 3-5 photos a day, listen to radio 10-20 minutes via loudspeaker, make 3-5 minutes call a day. My phone setting was GSM mode with the display brightness 50%. No sms, no games and no music playing and last ard 3-4 days until battery low warning. My phone is V20. Is there any improvement over the battery life once updated to V30? Thank You.

Once you get your phone...test for any dead pixels. Look closely. Second, test for both left and right speakers r they functioning well. Then...you should also check for the key-pad. Does it has any squeaking sound like "yik-yik". Basically test for every buttons. Next camera function. Lastly, ask them how long is the warranty period. My suggestion is that you can go to CSL shop. Coz they are selling quite a number of quality AP products. Good luck. Cheers ^^

Ah...I remembered I took one photo is almost like this. But its not when flash is on. I think its out of focus. So no worries. Its just one or 2 photos affected.
