Ya..the E-series. Well, I dont think its targeted just for businessmen..coz its multimedia features are pretty fascinating, almost on par with N-series.

As for the keypad..isnt it pretty much the same as other phones?? Just a few more shortcut keys added for the keypad for added functionality and ease-of-use biggrin.gif

Of course I'll recommend it, since I'm an E66 user..haha tongue.gif

Anyway, I really advice you to drop by a nearby shop and have a look at the actual phone to help you decide better. Cheers.

Seaedge,

I just felt that its better to have an official thread for E66, whereby everyone can get more info and share their opinions etc here. Not trying to compete with LittleCow here but I'm just doing what I felt right for E66 users and enthusiast in LYN. Besides, I did post in LittleCow's thread whether they wanna make it an official thread, but no one replied me.

Hope my answer addresses your confusion.. smile.gif

smile.gif okay.. noted. i do notice ur intention... but its confusing to see both topic. thanks to the mod for clearing up...

anyway continue from the previous topic..

QUOTE(lynxs @ Sep 29 2008, 12:31 PM)
how so do u mean? and would it make that much f a difference? we are talking about a phone camera anyways.....

thnx
*
what i mean is the software implemented in the phones for camera. and yes, i know we are talking about cameraphone... none of wat is said previously were about digital camera. and then, the imaging software is about how it captures the image, the details, the noise level, compression.. and all sort of things which lead to a decent photosnapping. if not, why would a normal pns camera also have ranges when they can have only one model to cater all?

here, E66 is business phone, hence imaging software is not well tuned, which leads to poor performances. comparing back to N82 or N95, its imaging is much better when look into the detail, colour reproduction, noise level and so on. u might say it is equipped with Carl Zeis which i think it is not really relevant, but if u compare with N80's 3mp, i would say N80's takes better image. *i am comparing those photo's via gsmarena. please take note ya. smile.gif

p/s:i am not saying e66 sucks; i personally like how E66 features which makes like a one stop solution for business executives.

So if u dun get my point, why dont we see pictars... people say, pictar worth a thousand words...

I would really agree with Seaedge here..anyway, one will have to be clear that E66 is still an E-Series, catered towards business people. Its just that the E66 is topped up with pretty good multimedia features to add to its value. Some may find the images taken with E66 camera terrible, but some may find it just great for specific-situation image taking. It all depends on how you're comparing it with..Still, imaging software does affect a lot on the output quality as stated by Seaedge, and perhaps Nokia will release an updated firmware from time to time to improve its camera functions..who knw? tongue.gif

Anyway, how about I add-up Seaedge's review with a comparison of pictures from GSMArena:

Seaedge,

Truly sorry for the confusion. As I've mentioned earlier, i just want all e66 users to gather here and share among themselves. An official discussion thread with lots of info may be best for all E66 users to make full use of their phones..including myself biggrin.gif

Btw, calling all proud E66 users out there..come on in and share with us your experiences and comments, recommended softwares, tips and tricks etc.. nod.gif

Camera on phones are usually not meant for professional photographing, but more for convenience and for capturing images for uploading to the net, sharing etc. A simple digital camera will do the tasks much better.

The E66 is truly a rock-solid-built phone. Not to mention the stainless steel finishing truly captures the attention of the crowd. Besides, if you can notice, the main casing of the grey E66 (plastic) is actually metallic with tiny shining particles!! Wow.. biggrin.gif

doomx, not planning to get this phone? Hehe.. tongue.gif

Camera on phones are usually not meant for professional photographing, but more for convenience and for capturing images for uploading to the net, sharing etc. A simple digital camera will do the tasks much better.

The E66 is truly a rock-solid-built phone. Not to mention the stainless steel finishing truly captures the attention of the crowd. Besides, if you can notice, the main casing of the grey E66 (plastic) is actually metallic with tiny shining particles!! Wow.. biggrin.gif

doomx, not planning to get this phone? Hehe.. tongue.gif

well for the meantime i will sit back and wait for all the phones to roll out still waiting for n85 and n79 smile.gif.
and also funding, im attracted to e66 when the first time i saw it. really nice design

Haha..no lar..i bought it mainly becoz of its WLAN and GPS coz I travel a lot on business trips... laugh.gif

Please do consider what are the features that you are really looking for coz there's difference between E-series and N-series as each has its own advantages. Not to mention there are some cons of E66 if you read the reviews links which I'd posted on main page.. smile.gif

I'm afraid I cant coz the cons are actually very abstract..some may take it as a con, some may think otherwise. For example, some may hate the below average 3.2mp camera on E66, but some (including myself) felt that its performing great and dont see this as a disadvantage.

Please kindly read through the reviews and judge for yourself ya..Cheers. nod.gif

Haha biggrin.gif ..IMHO, the n85 will be kinda pricey as it adapts the OLED display and features some tech goodies in it..and it looks really similar to the n81..whereas the E66's looks is a huge jump over its previous sibling E65.

Just my 2cents smile.gif

hi skylancer,

An early welcome to the E66 club then rclxms.gif .

I've been looking forward to upload some sample pictures here. I think everyone who read the reviews on the net should noticed that they all commented how bad the performance of the 3.2mpix camera is blink.gif ..but I'd like to prove them wrong. I believe most of the reviewed E66 sets are on older firmware version 100.07.78 (built 16-06-2008), whilst APAC sets are now equipped with firmware version 102.07.81 (built 12-07-2008). I also believed that in this new firmware version, the image processing of the camera was somehow improved or fixed icon_rolleyes.gif .

Note that the Nokia E66 is not meant to be a camera phone, but it does impress in all aspects. Look at some of my sample pictures and do compare them to the pictures of reviewers (eg GSMArena, AllAboutSymbian, Mobile88 etc - find links on first page):

Hello everyone,

I just got Nokia E66i from my GF for our anniversary. So sweet of her. She got me the black color model zitron set and with 4GB memory card. rclxms.gif I got little fuss regarding the OS. Previously, I use NgageQD, I can just connect my phone to my PC and create folders and store all the files to the correct folders and it will display each folder in the phone but now with e66 I cant do that. I need to create all those folders first using the phone before I transfer all my files into the memory card using mass storage method. It will display all the files on their category rather then the folders I created.

Next is the album cover.. I can't get some album cover load up. I've to manually upload all the album cover into the phone first then login into the music player and add the album cover. There is no visualization... no full screen album cover like my GF Nokia N73. cry.gif next is the playlist... I cant load ".wpl" list.. now want to try using m3u. keep you all updates biggrin.gif

i bought mine ap set. around RM14++. i think it should be cheaper, but u know la, raya season, all shop are marking up their price again.

so far so good. my first slide phone. everytime i slide open it, worried i break it. hahahah...

can recomend any good software (free) to add to this phone?

bro benzee, i think u should realize that bit every phone is capable of having all the features that we want. like the album cover feature is a special trade of multimedia phones (music phones) like n73me or expressmusic phones. right? e66 is much more simplified phone thats for the business, email priority and files and schedule priority.

Bro..is this your first time using S60 phone? Hehe..coz s60 memang like that. You can actually create folders in your PC and view them using Office>File Manager. I believe the problem you're talking about is the Gallery, which I dun really use. I prefer browsing my files using File Manager and some 3rd party software like PhotoRite. Besides, you can actually transfer all your files using the Media Transfer method, which is a lot lot easier.

About the album cover, I dun face any problem like wad u've described. I can upload the album cover on my PC and it shows on my music player. Well, I'd like to comment that E66 is really not meant to be a multimedia phone..thus these are some of the drawbacks. However, some 3rd party application should easily solve this problems though smile.gif

I was pretty surprise of the captured images as well until I found out that the firmware was updated. However, I still cant confirm whether they did improve the image processing in this new firmware, but comparison between the images does prove something... biggrin.gif

As for the difference between E-series and N-series, it's really hard to say. Both are targeted towards different market. I'd like to think that E-series is a superb business phone with great multimedia features, whilst N-series is a superb multimedia phone with great business features..haha laugh.gif

Raul Bro,

I still have to say that the E-series and N-series both have their own advantages. My comments would be that multimedia features on E-series are on the low side compared to N-series, as this is the way it's supposed to be. If E-series are great in both business and multimedia, Nokia wouldnt be making profit out of their N-series..rite? smile.gif

Perhaps you can go through all the reviews on the net and judge their comments ya. I would say that E66 is the perfect phone for me in every aspects, but some may think otherwise..its pretty abstract. Cheers.

Hem, surprisingly I faced the same problem with my friend's E66 last night, after restarting the phone..everything's ok. But I didnt face that problem with my phone hmm.gif Did you install any 3rd party software in your phone..coz smts they may be the cause of this problem. But its really minor though.

I think the software you're looking for is FS Caller.. try looking for it at www.ipmart-forum.com, and good luck searching. There's tonnes of software there.. brows.gif

Hem, since last nite till now, are you running memory-hungry apps such as camera, GPS, WLAN etc? Mine can lasts for like 2~3 days with usual usage of SMS-ing and answering calls. Did you charge your battery for at least 8 hours in the first time?

Unfortunately, we cannot verify the BL-4U battery as it does not have any verification code. Perhaps you can go to this link :

Nokia - Check your battery

and check if your battery is original or not, although fake stickers nowadays look so real tongue.gif

if i will go for est. usage per day as below:

30min internet browsing(3g)
20min wlan
1hour+ phone calling
20+ sms
very minimal music/camera

the ori battery could last up to?

Maybe 2 days? Coz tat's roughly my usage as well..minus the 3G. It's really hard 2 measure..but I think bringing the tiny charger around shouldnt be a big problem..hehe. Besides, the charger charges extremely fast..charging to full from flat takes less than 1 1/2 hrs..!! thumbup.gif

i dont think lithium ion battery nowdays need to be charge 8 hours on the first charge. but, well. maybe i play with the phone so much last night. maybe thats why...

As a matter of fact, I think they still do. New batteries will need to be charged for that period of time to fully ionized (if this's the correct term) the battery. Perhaps I need to do some research on this..hehe

wow..ur budget's pretty high shocking.gif
IMHO, some of the extra thingys which you can consider are:
1. Maybe add a car phone holder (useful while GPS-ing)
2. a nice Golla phone case
3. an extra battery
4. an "Invisible Shield" for protection
5. a nice bluetooth stereo headset for music listening cool.gif

Seaedge,

I was pretty surprise of the captured images as well until I found out that the firmware was updated. However, I still cant confirm whether they did improve the image processing in this new firmware, but comparison between the images does prove something...  biggrin.gif

one thing for sure, that they remove the tint in the photo that the previous firmware had. besides that, the image looks abit sharper than previous one.

I think you should go for the black version but most of the ladies will like to have white. The white back cover looks better with the black model. Too bad I cant switch it tongue.gif

benzee,

Welcome to the club!!  rclxms.gif
pls pm me your info as per 1st page so i can add you to the "CEO" user list ya  biggrin.gif

Bro..is this your first time using S60 phone? Hehe..coz s60 memang like that. You can actually create folders in your PC and view them using Office>File Manager. I believe the problem you're talking about is the Gallery, which I dun really use. I prefer browsing my files using File Manager and some 3rd party software like PhotoRite. Besides, you can actually transfer all your files using the Media Transfer method, which is a lot lot easier.

About the album cover, I dun face any problem like wad u've described. I can upload the album cover on my PC and it shows on my music player. Well, I'd like to comment that E66 is really not meant to be a multimedia phone..thus these are some of the drawbacks. However, some 3rd party application should easily solve this problems though  smile.gif
*
hey bro,
Just send u a pm. I did use before the old version of s60 which is my NgageQD. Then play with my GF's n73. I want the FS caller software too bad is not free blush.gif I got some problem installing some themes that I dl from mobile88. It has this error msg stating certificate error. Can anyone help me? shakehead.gif doh.gif

Ya, notice all the reviews mentioned a kinda bluish tint on the output images. In the new firmware, colour processing seems really improved. However, I failed to find any changelogs on the firmware releases...anyone successful in finding the changelogs?

Another question...any one can describe wad does EV (Exposure Value) do in camera? Thks

benzee,

added you on the list d!! Welcome to the club dude!! biggrin.gif
For the FS caller *ahem* version, can try go to this link:

Ipmart-Forum

Good luck searching ya. I just posted a link previously for a website with really nice themes. As for the certificate error, try go Tools > Settings > Application > App Manager; then select All for "software installation" and Off for "Online certificate check". Hopefully this will work..if it doesnt, I still have another method that might work brows.gif

I am not sure what it means EV in the phone camera but in a digital camera, it means that the level of light capturing ability. If the reading is higher, it means the picture would be brighter.

ev is the exposure values. if the current value is a +, then ur picture might end up overexposed. if the value is -, it would be underexposed. it should help in a dark/light situaton, but take note ,ur picture will end up with noise...

same as the ISO use.

alamak..... ISO is different la... ISO is how fast the shutter captures the light la.... EV is adjusting the values already... for example, normally in studio pictures, they would tend to use higher value of EV

I tried checking online for EV, and I know that it's got something to do with lighting + shutter..haha. Real confusing..but all I knw is that higher EV = brighter picture and vice versa. Hehe.

Maybe shud go photography thread and ask the sifus' there...

haha. i didnt say ISO and ev the same thing. i meant that it would help u in the same kind of situation. yes, ISO and EV is different thing. same as ISO, lower ISO for bright situation, and higher ISO for low light condition.

EV is used with the light condition in studio. high EV value maybe because they were using white background in whiterooms...

i dont know how to explain it. but if u own a dslr, u could test it...

ok, back to the phone... OT a bit dah ni

Haha..ur rite, back to our beloved E66 discussion !!

Btw, did you guys check your phone's product code? I've posted a list of E66 product code in the main page. I'm asking coz one of my ex-colleague bought an E66 online which is suppose to be AP Set. And the product code is 0558511 (Philippines) instead of 0566493 (Msia) ohmy.gif . So pls be careful ya.

I kinda think the speaker is pretty good enough, and wont make me miss any calls unless I'm in a disco. I think the speaker facing the surface of a table wont really affect the volume, but unless you cover the speakers then it'll turn really soft due to the placement of the speaker very near to the casing.

I'll try to search the net and other forums to see if there's any way to increase the volume software-wise, but a much more practical way is to change the speakers at phone shops (will void the warranty) blush.gif

Ya, i actually read through the definitions from Wiki-wiki, but its pretty confusing though. Its all in "photography" language..haha tongue.gif .
Anyway, I was asking as in the E66 camera, we dun get to set the ISO level, but we can only set the EV instead. The output is that higher EV = brighter picture and otherwise. So I was just hoping a good explanation in layman terms might help photography nerdie like me to understand more, hehe sweat.gif

the current E66 is FP1 topped up with some FP2 features..but a search on the net certified that the E66 and E71 will be the last batch of Nokia phones featuring OS 9.2 FP1..others and future ones will be completely FP2.

I'm nt sure if there's a way to "upgrade" our OS to FP2..but it'll be great if this is possible, Hehe.

Ah that is sad to hear. Guess they purposely leave out the FP2 same like n82. Sigh. FP2 looks neat and not to mention it also saves the battery life alot smile.gif. Well,for now i guess i just waiting and waiting. Playing the waiting game. Lol

well, tech gadgets memang like that..a phone can be state-of-the-art today, but an antique tomorrow..

besides, i highly doubt that a full FP2 will make so much difference with FP1..coz they'll still be based on the same OS9.2 platform. Perhaps the most noticeable changes would be the animations, UI and useability improvements...whereas performance-wise will not differ much as they'll need to re-design a different system architecture for that.

Garmin Mobile XT is an alternative GPS navigation software to Nokia Maps. Its totally free, and GPRS charges occur only when you:

1. Surf to Garmin Online via phone
2. Use A-GPS (lock position faster via web)

yes the ori nokia 2gb microsd.

A question here, if we choose using mass storage instead of pc suite while connect via usb cable, looks like something weird happened. I can't access the memory card after that and have to restart the phone, and some setting will back to factory default such as if before this i set to store sms/contact in memory card, etc. Anyone having the same syndrom?

erm... that is not common thing for symbian phone (as far as i have used symbians)..

It is best that you make a serious complain about your phone to higher level in zitron. if AP phone can perform without any problem, yours as a original phone shouldnt have such problem. besides, if it(memory card) comes original with the package, they also shouldnt say its memory fault and ask YOU to replace it. if i were you, i will look for higher management level and voice out the problem faced. that is why we buy original rather than AP. smile.gif and ask for a new unit rather than wait for repairs.

raul,

My experience with my E66 is:

1. Choose PC Suite > Can access both phone and card memory
2. Choose Mass Storage > Can only access card memory
3. Choose media transfer > Can only access card memory

During the first few days, there are times when after i've accessed the memory card, unplug the data cable, the memory card says that its still in use. So have to restart phone, but didnt experience any factory default thingy. Then I tried exploring using PC Suite and Mass Storage..now everytime I connect using PC Suite, I can access both phone and card memory.

Did you remove the Mass Storage properly by clicking Remove usb mass storage at your taskbar on PC? Or perhaps another way is just plug your memory card into adapter and use a card reader.. icon_rolleyes.gif

Hi Darren.q,

Care to tell us which date you bought your E66 and the firmware version at that moment? If its the latest V 102.07.81, you shouldnt have faced these problems. Unless its solely the memory card's problem..but so far this is the first time I heard this problem.

Anyway, has Zitron revert back to you d? Have you got back your phone with the new memory card and is everything back to normal?

I totally agree with Seaedge..even my AP phone shop gives me a 1-to-1 exchange warranty within first week..Perhaps you're really unlucky to get a faulty set..so I would advice that you be STERN vmad.gif and insists on a new handset, regardless whether its just the memory card problem. nod.gif

always look for manager level if things doesnt work it out. then only start using the word press conference, complaint to newpaper section or maybe tribunal? the best would be " See you in court! "... but make sure it is full with evidence against them ya...

Hello everyone,

I just got Nokia E66i from my GF for our anniversary. So sweet of her. She got me the black color model zitron set and with 4GB memory card. rclxms.gif  I got little fuss regarding the OS. Previously, I use NgageQD, I can just connect my phone to my PC and create folders and store all the files to the correct folders and it will display each folder in the phone but now with e66 I cant do that. I need to create all those folders first using the phone before I transfer all my files into the memory card using mass storage method. It will display all the files on their category rather then the folders I created.

Next is the album cover.. I can't get some album cover load up. I've to manually upload all the album cover into the phone first then login into the music player and add the album cover. There is no visualization... no full screen album cover like my GF Nokia N73. cry.gif  next is the playlist... I cant load ".wpl" list.. now want to try using m3u. keep you all updates biggrin.gif
*
benzee,

Are u still having problem with the album cover? I tried and its fine with my phone. I just attached the cover to all the songs via TT Player, then transfer to phone. And it'll display the cover when I play the songs..is it becoz your album cover images are too large? hmm.gif Mine is all below 500 pixels.

As for the folder, only File Manager can display your folders as per the memory card, whereas the Gallery will dump everything into its own categories ie Images, video clips etc..u have to re-create the folders inside Gallery. That's why I prefer using File Manager or some 3rd party apps like PhotoRite SP to view images.. blush.gif

I havent tried the playlist though..

Here are two samples taken by my E66. Not too bad though but these 2 are the best among the pictures I took.

Basically the whole phone is great but I'm looking for more usefull applications to be installed into my phone.

Btwn, Any idea is the nokia maps still usable after 1 month? or I should change to gamini XT mobile when the nokia maps expired? : )

Nice pics dude..now we've proven that the E66 does indeed have a reputable camera, not as described in reviews online. rclxm9.gif If add Carl Zeiss lens on the E66, this phone is perfect d!!!

There are quite a few "hot" applications out there such as FS Caller, FExplorer, PhotoRite SP, Opera Mini, SmartMovie, Divx Player etc..besides, I've posted a few good applications links on the main page as well, be sure to check those out ya biggrin.gif

The Nokia Maps offers 3-month free navigation license only, after which you'll have to pay for the services and its really expensive. There are quite a few free GPS software out there which you can try..but Garmin Mobile XT is not free. You may find "free" ones if you try hard enuf though whistling.gif

Btw, first time see you posting here..new E66 user?

ck,
Thanks for replying my PM. After mp3 problem, now I've my own "Album Cover" folder in my phone. Some of my mp3 unable to load the Album Cover that I added into the mp3 using Winamp so I manually add them in the Phone. Tested the playlist " *.m3u " playlists is supported but don't know why when I open using File manager I got corrupted file end up the playlist I created using the Phone itself also gone. sad.gif Have try the second time because preparing a trip up north.

I thought the Gallery can have the view like the N series where we browse movies and photos but at least is faster the loading time compare to N73 and with some animation transition. I Loving It! rclxms.gif Problem with file manager is that we are unable to have a preview instead we need to open only we can see the files. PhotoRite SP is a trialware rite? I click to the link that you provided in the first page. Is not a freeware rite? blink.gif How about the Garmin? Have you try it? I downloaded the GoogleMaps.

BTW, I found another issues. I'm not sure whether you guys having the same problems. If we've the auto-rotation ON while we on a CALL we might endup line break. I hope you guys understand what I'm trying to say. Even the other side party can hear the line breaks. After disable the auto-Rotate, everything went fine. doh.gif shakehead.gif

Some ways you can save the battery is to turn the power saver mode faster, remove screen saver and things like that..it does help.

I read from some reviews that the reason its not full FP2 is becoz at the time of E66 design stage, FP2 is not readily available/released yet. So perhaps the FP2 features was tested on the E66 n E71..thus creating a Symbian s60 v9.2 FP1-FP2 fusion. Hehe. laugh.gif

The album cover problem may perhaps due to Winamp and not the phone..coz I tried using TT Player and it works fine..unless you had no problem loading the covers with Winamp with your previous phone. As for the playlist, I really have no idea.. hmm.gif

The Gallery in E66 is much simpler than N-series since it aint multimedia..PhotoRite SP is a good alternative IMHO..and it is trialware. The link does work..search carefully ya? brows.gif If you want a preview, try the built-in Search tool. I seriously find it superb..as you can search everything in your phone easily especially multimedia files and contacts; have preview as well thumbup.gif

Garmin Mobile XT is definitely high recommended..and again..search carefully..hehe.

The auto-rotate problem during calls...hmm..I tried that but its fine with my phone. Besides, I dun reali think we'll rotate our phone while talking..rite? laugh.gif This prob occurred due to the "slower" processor..

Guys,

I was exploring the Nokia PC Suite and found out that this is really a SUPERB software..cant believe I have this great software with me all this while..it can indefinitely perform almost every single tasks..such as accessing files from phone and memory card, accessing contacts, sms and emails, multimedia files, video and audio conversions, install applications etc.

This is really cool..not like the old PC Suite.. rclxm9.gif

benzee,

For the call button problem, are you sure your phone is in Home Screen when you press call button? Coz it only works while in Home Screen. Besides, are there any running apps in the background at that moment? Is your phone locked?

Ya, we cant use the front camera to capture images..but why? shakehead.gif Can use 3.2mp camera to take self-portrait...dun use the VGA camera la...hehe biggrin.gif

There's some 3rd party software that allows you to take images using front camera though...

lksing78,

sad to hear tat ur P1i got stolen..be careful with ur new E66 ya blush.gif .
I feel tat the sound on E66 is pretty good and loud enuf. No prob with the alarm tone as well..very loud and never make me late. Can u explain more with wad u mean by alarm tone slow down?

If u like qwerty keypad, why not opt for E71?? unsure.gif

WLan can definitely be turned off..:

1.At Home Screen, scroll to WLAN (shud be 4th row if u left it at default setting), click on ur D-pad, and choose "Switch WLAN scan off", OR

2. Go to Menu> Tools> Settings> Connection> Wireless LAN> and choose "Never" under "Show WLAN availability". Tada biggrin.gif

Btw, pls provide me ur info as per main page's format so I can add u to the user lists ya. Thks

today the 'infamous' green call button cant work again for once after made calls of 40 min, 20 sms, 30 min music playing, 5 min wlan. Called to my supplier and they said it was 'software' problem.

During the green call button jamming, i tried to navigate the whole phone and i think it should be the software/firmware problem too. The button actually still working for other functions but just no response for CALL function. Just weird. Even if i try to use the menu button to access Call function, still the same, can't make any call. hmm.gif

By the way, sound and alarm tone is fine for me, i don't feel any loudness problem at all biggrin.gif

bro,

wad ya mean by the green call button can work for other functions? As far as i knw, its function is only two: to access call list and make a call. pls explain ya.

so u'r saying that even if you access the log, view your call history, then press options>call>voice call, nothing happens? I've gone through quite a few other forums in europe and singapore..but didnt come across hearing this problem though. Does ur supplier provide 1-to-1 exchange??

I am currently planning to get this phone but i am still uncertain coz i am not one for keeps up to date with the handphone industry. It would be helpful if anyone could give me some 1st hand experience on this phone and the pros and cons of it. I am looking for a all in one phone; 3G, camera, wifi, music, so is this a suitable phone?

I am situated around Subang Jaya/USJ so if anyone could recommend some reputable/reliable/trustworthy dealers it would be helpful. Original set preferred. Thx!

I kinda disagree that the green call button problem is a bug in symbian..coz if it is, all of us will face the same problem. Perhaps there's some other reasons that triggered this malfunction..how bout posting ur problem in nokia forum and s60 forum? Maybe the experts there can help. But my advice would be change the new phone asap juz to be safe..hehe. Did ur supplier tell u how long is their 1-to-1 exchange warranty period?

lksing78,

when it shows "WLAN scanning off", the WLAN is actually off. While the WLAN is off, and you tried surfing the web, it will reconnect according to your preferred access point. If the WLAN is on, there should be a "WLAN on" symbol (four connected squares) at top right of your phone. smile.gif

** Copied from Nokia E66 User Guide, Chapter "Troubleshooting" pg 155:

Q: How do I switch WLAN off on my Nokia device?
A: The WLAN on your Nokia device switches off when you are not trying to connect, not connected to another access point, or not scanning for available networks. To further reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your Nokia device does not scan, or scans less often, for available networks in the background. WLAN switches off in between background scans. To stop the background scans, select Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Wireless LAN > Show WLAN availability > Never. You can still manually scan for available WLAN networks and connect to WLAN networks as usual.
To increase the background scan interval, select Show WLAN availability > Yes, and define the interval in Scan for networks.

is ur phone running many apps in the background while u'r typing sms? I had mine for almost 2 weeks d..still very fast, even when running multiple apps at the same time. There's only a slight lag while doing auto-rotate when playing movies...

Perhaps you can try wad I did..which is to save everything in the memory card. All my messages, caches, files are all stored in my 4gb memory card. Maybe will help.. smile.gif

On top of that, I normally leave all the common applications running at the background such as Contacts, Messaging, File Manager, Logs so that I can access them really fast. You can do this by opening the applications then pressing the "Home" key to go back Home screen. This way, the apps are all running at the background, although it may consume more battery..but i always have a handy 2mm usb charger by my side..hehe thumbup.gif

I kinda disagree that the green call button problem is a bug in symbian..coz if it is, all of us will face the same problem. Perhaps there's some other reasons that triggered this malfunction..how bout posting ur problem in nokia forum and s60 forum? Maybe the experts there can help. But my advice would be change the new phone asap juz to be safe..hehe. Did ur supplier tell u how long is their 1-to-1 exchange warranty period?

i don't have any problem today after i reset to factory default by yesterday, although i made 1 hour+ calling, 20+ sms, 15min gps, 30min 3g, etc. rclxms.gif everything is smoothly. hope thats the problem will disappear forever. sweat.gif

I read from the mobile phone reviews web page saying that the pictures taken with E66 are bluish or reddish, is it true? Or is it improved in the retail version?

Whats the diff between E66 and E71? The specs seem the same. Only the form factor is different. Am i missing something? I'm thinking of getting one but dunno which to get.

Bro...besides the form factor difference, there's a few other minor difference:

1. built-in accelerometer (on E66)
2. different battery capacity (bigger on E71)
3. QuickOffice premier on E71 (can edit docs, spreadsheets etc.; on E66 can only view)
4. QWERTY keypad (on E71)
5. Removing memory card without opening back cover on E71
6. No dedicated camera key on E71

Tat's all I can think of for now... biggrin.gif

Go to Menu> Tools> Settings> General> Slide Handling> and choose "On when closing slide" under Keyguard Activation. Tada icon_rolleyes.gif

May I knw wad type of document are you referring to? The QuickOffice software we have can only use for viewing. However, if you want to edit text, there's a really powerful tools inside the phone> Active Notes. smile.gif

you can read through the reviews on the net for both phones, they're pretty good to help you compare and understand more. www.gsmarena.com is a good place to start with. nod.gif

CK, I mean when the slider is closed, and then i turn off keylock so that i could browse the menu and stuff... but after that, how do i turn it on manually again?

ANd yes... i look at the hologram... it is lack of 1 point. So, it could last me about 2days max.


Added on October 10, 2008, 2:39 amoh... another question. How do i make my active note to be on my home menu? actually, how do i make my most used application to be on the main menu.

Anodize,

if ur slider is closed, u can lock ur phone by pressing power button (short press), then >Lock Keypad. There's some 3rd party apps that can put a Lock shortcut on the main screen though.

Attached Image

Try to get ur supplier to change the battery for you k? It happens to my previous phone too..screw and bomb them, thn they'll change for you. icon_rolleyes.gif

To change shortcuts in Active Standby, go to Menu> Tools> Settings> Personalisation> Home Screen> Mode Settings> Home Screen Applications> Applications Shortcut. nod.gif

IMHO the Symbian Browser is much better than the award-winning Opera browser thumbup.gif ; especially the mouse and smart zoom feature.

Hmm, planning to get an e66 but can't make up my mind so need some input frm u guys. Whtz the major difference between e66 and e71 (other than the rotation thing and minor fuctions). Can we sms while driving using e71 ( I know it's dangerous but no choice when rushing biggrin.gif )? I'm a rough user would the slide in e66 last? By the way can u search ur contacts by company name using e66? Thanks in advance for the replies. biggrin.gif

Thr's some comparison btwn E66 and E71 if you read thru this thread, as well as the reviews on the first page. Of coz can sms on E71 while driving once u get used to its keypad..

The E66 slide is spring loaded, one of the most solid mechanism in slide phone designs.

Wad ya mean by search contacts via company name? It supports grouping..similar to othr Nokia symbian phones biggrin.gif

dun sms and drive since u know its dangerous. but since it sports keypad rather than touchscreen or qwerty keyboard, yes you can fairly sms simple msg.

as for searching companys name, i dun think that features available but i do know a trick, just put the company name infront of the contact name. sure helps me alot. smile.gif

Anyone had their E66 protected? I mean screen protectors or full body protectors like Invisible shield. Wonder how much a full body protector will cost and where to get it.

I'm getting my E66 tomorrow anyway, omg. can't wait.

bro,
I still havent get my E66 a screen protector yet but got it a pouch. Dont feel like using the original Nokia pouch included in the package. Want to keep it.

Ck,
just wondering is there anywhere to get my Apps installed in the phone when it prompt me "Certificate Expired"? I installed the Nokia Video Manager or something that included in the CD. I found out that there is some bugs. When you're trying to convert videos to playable video on your phone and transfer to your phone it will hang on the second video.. maybe I convert the best quality. Let me know if anyone find something..

i've got my phone protected... It cost me RM69 and then discounted RM4 as i took another 3 phones for protection. However, i wouldn't reccomend you to go protect it as it doesn't look as class anymore and the feel of the button is strange.

Select Menu> Tools> Settings> Applications> App. Manager> then choose "All" under Software Installation, and "Off" under Online Certificate Check. If this doesnt work, change ur date to 11.05.2007 (if tis dun work, try play around wit a few dates) and try run the installer again. This works for me icon_rolleyes.gif

You mean ur phone hang or PC hang? All videos converted via Nokia Video Manager works for me, but quality is nt so good. Go to main page, I put a link there for Any Video Converter 2.6.3, pretty good. Another alternative is SmartMovie Converter. My video settings are:

Video codec : mpeg4/xvid
Video size : 320 x 240 or below
Video bitrate: 384 kbps
Video framerate : 15fps for normal playback; 25 fps for DVD-rip

Audio codec : mp3/ aac
Audio bitrate: 128 kbps
Sample rate : 44100 Hz
Audio channel : 2

** Please do calculate the video size that you need to choose so that ur video does not appear cropped/out of shape during playback. biggrin.gif

Hi there thanks for the reply, got my e71 (white colour) yesterday. Sold all my phone to get this......cry.gif (n78 for Rm1000.00......my beloved n9500 for RM400.00 only cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif and some more top up RM 1850.00, I know price is a bit high but in jb no choice if we wan to get an ori set frm nokia priority shop). Tried sms....no problem at all but as for the company contacts I dun agree with u because I was told that the phone book should be functioning same as my n9500. My n9500 can search by company name, I like to save contacts in full as it's easy to search when u have a phone book of more then 1000 contacts, at times I forget their name and remember company name or the other way around. Anyway I found a way of doing it by using search function which is available in all the new S60 phones but still I'm not happy as it's slow abit. Tom heading to the nokia centre where they promised me it would work and going to goreng them brows.gif. By the way if we hard reset our phone would all the original software (games & office) installed would be gone? Thanks again. biggrin.gif

Can you explain more bro..wad u mean by messing up? hmm.gif

I used the copy-paste feature eg. copy certain text frm sms, thn paste in entry under Calendar (or any othr places)..so far so good, very convenient and useful. No prob wit "messing up" thingy...

Guys,

*Update*

The "Memory Card In Use" bug (which happens whn you unplug data cable thn unable to access memory card, showing Memory Card in Use) seems to happen all over the world for E66 and E71. It has already been reported to Nokia and Symbian and they're looking into fixing this problem. According to them, this problem probably occurred due to some minor software glitches. However, it was not told when the fix will be available. Hopefully soon sweat.gif

My advice would be using the memory card adapter to transfer the files to avoid this problem. Let's pray the fix will be available soon..

Can you explain more bro..wad u mean by messing up?  hmm.gif

I used the copy-paste feature eg. copy certain text frm sms, thn paste in entry under Calendar (or any othr places)..so far so good, very convenient and useful. No prob wit "messing up" thingy...
*
Hmm maybe I didn't bother to read the manual or something. When the phone is "locked" into copy paste mode, the navigation keys don't work for some reason. After I press # once to get out of copy paste mode, usage of the navigation keys kick me back into copy paste/highlight mode again.

I wonder if I'm just dumb or something's wrong with my system. (probably im just dumb lol)

previously, i have problems with the transfering using cables. but after i transfered the files, i turn off and on the phone, everything is back in order with the transfered files in the phone.

as for the copy and paste, i don't have any problems with it at all.

Ya..have to restart ur phone thn everything ok. It seldom happens to my phone though, juz once in a blue moon. Smts if u wait for a few minutes, can access the card without needing to restart. Hope Symbian fix tis prob in the next firmware release.. blush.gif

Guys,

*Update*

The "Memory Card In Use" bug (which happens whn you unplug data cable thn unable to access memory card, showing Memory Card in Use) seems to happen all over the world for E66 and E71. It has already been reported to Nokia and Symbian and they're looking into fixing this problem. According to them, this problem probably occurred due to some minor software glitches. However, it was not told when the fix will be available. Hopefully soon  sweat.gif

My advice would be using the memory card adapter to transfer the files to avoid this problem. Let's pray the fix will be available soon..

**Source frm Nokia E-series forum and S60 forum

CK,
Thanks God, my E66 dont have this problem. Like wht the other said. Just reboot the phone everything will go fine. This week will go back and set the date for the installing the part. Yup.. forget to bring my USB cable with me along. Anyone know how much is the USB cable? The Video Manager hang when I'm coverting the video. mad.gif

I'm planning to get the E66. I'm using the 6680 now. Can i find out how do i transfer all my phonebook, sms/mms, pics, games, etc which is mostly in my memory card (old Mini SD, not newer Micro SD) to the new phone?

Btw, any recommended seller for Ori E66? Looking for one this weekend. Thanks.

1. transfer frm old memory card to new memory card; OR
2. Use PC Suite to do full backup, thn restore at new phone; OR
3. E66 has a very very good n useful "Switch" tool used to transfer contacts etc btwn compatible phones

Can try Sunway or Subang Parade..or get frm one of our forum sellers here..

ya..the battery is actually kinda a drawback..but charging once every 1-2 days is ok wit me. Dun think thr's any 3rd party apps for this, but future firmware may increase the battery life.. biggrin.gif

The looks is just amazing..I'm getting all kinds of attractions while attending meetings and appointments with my clients..especially the "flip to silent" feature; really amazed the others during meeting..wakaka laugh.gif

Well, the fact that it has a normal keypad, and it has accelerometer which enables you to flip the phone into Silent mode when there's an incoming call.

Will not be selling the E71 if I do get the E66, instead will use it side by side. tongue.gif

old software might not be compatible that much as it is new OS. then for phonebook, i use MS Outlook to sync all contacts. for pics and music from old RS-MMC(6680 use rsmmc rather than miniSD) to MicroSD just use memory card reader enough lor.

wah..so rich..envy ler..You can actually use this software > RotateMe to rotate the screen without accelerometer..But for "flip to silent", Im afraid only works with accelerometer. blush.gif

yeap! So far so good! Although my 4GB memory card sort of screwed up just now. Couldn't access and save any files in it. But after reformatting it everything's running ok now. Basically everything else is running fast and smoothly biggrin.gif

menu wise..it's somehow a little different from the N series..or maybe it's psychological effect and due to the use of SE phone for the past 2 years. However, after a few hours playing with it..sort of got familiarised with it..all I can say is..it's nice =)

1. Copy the the .vcf file from System/Pim in the memory card of the SE phone (SE phones usually save the contacts in a single .vcf file if you chose to backup the contacts to the memory card)

2. Download the vcfsplitter software from here. It's free smile.gif

3. Read the readme file included in the software for the instructions to split the single .vcf file to multiple .vcf files of your contacts.

4. Import all the .vcf files in PC Suite and all the contacts should be transferred to your e66


I've done mine and it worked like a charm smile.gif

Hmm..I have some issues here.

1. I browsed the net and found that you can actually do an auto contact search by pressing the numbers in Home Sreen. However, mine doesn't work..only the numbers appear as I type but no search results shown.

2. Whenever I restarted the phone, an installation bar is shown. When the installation ends, a message stating that there's an unsafe content in memory card that is not installed and asked me to proceed to app. manager to have it installed.


Anyone encountered such problems?

Answer 1: The contact search feature in Home Screen only applies to Euro firmware. APAC firmware doesnt have this feature, and I dun understand why too. Hopefully the next firmware release will add this useful feature though biggrin.gif

Answer 2: What is the last application you have installed before this problem occurs? If you have .sis or .sisx files in your phone memory or memory card, this do happen as the phone scans the memory for installer files. Try to delete all the installer files.

bro,

Garmin Mobile XT is meant to work with Garmin GPS Bluetooth Receiver only. Perhaps the internet has instructions on how to make it work with Internal GPS. Be hardworking enough to read through this whole thread and you might come across some "useful info".

if im not mistaken, this is because the ringtone section is associated with the music player..perhaps if the songs is not in music player, it wont appear in the ringtone section.

maybe best way is to remove memory card, then prob wont appear in ringtone section?

Nope it dont, but no big deal coz u can just assign any shortcut key for camera. As for opinion-wise, it actually depends on yourself blush.gif Since both E71 and E66 are siblings and have 95% similar software+hardware specs, in the end its more on the looks which you favour most. If you'd like to know, I'm against the E71 for a few particular reasons:

1. Looks just like a Blackberry
2. Smallish QWERTY keypad
3. No camera shutter key
4. No portrait display mode
5. More bugs and problems reported compared to E66
6. I prefer slide phones compared to bar phones

However, it's just my personal view.. tongue.gif

More to a fan of a candybar but then i cant seem to use the E71 QWERTY keypad without pressing both alphabet at the same time. Have to FOCUS rclxub.gif .

Im totally satisfied with the volume..reviews on the net have claimed that both the sound processing of E71 and E66 are totally same.

Vibration is super strong.. smile.gif Prob the best way for you to decide is to play around with both phones at the shop.

Im not really sure but I think its like a shareware, after 3-months trial period, perhaps it'll request for license code or smt like that.

Yeah that's the problem, no accelerometer, no "Flip to Silent". That's why thinking of getting the E66 just for that feature.

But the E71's keypads are really nice, the best from Nokia to date.

I self profess to have large fingers, and yet using the E71's keyboard is a breeze for me, and I don't have any problems in pressing 2 keys at the same time. tongue.gif

Having said that, I sometimes still prefer a normal keypad, like the one on the E66. smile.gif

Lol, my initial view of getting the E66 is for that feature too, but then looking back i rather have the shake to read sms since most of the time i use my phone to sms. Less calling smile.gif.

I dont know bout who has the most bugs but Im sure it can be overcome with the recent firmware update so no biggie.

If I'm to buy the E71, it will be the first QWERTY keypad phone i have,nervous smile.gif . Both E-series seriously kill this time

p/s : I'm pestering my dad to get himself a blackberry bold. I wanna play with it tongue.gif

Lol, my initial view of getting the E66 is for that feature too, but then looking back i rather have the shake to read sms since most of the time i use my phone to sms. Less calling smile.gif.

I dont know bout who has the most bugs but Im sure it can be overcome with the recent firmware update so no biggie.

If I'm to buy the E71, it will be the first QWERTY keypad phone i have,nervous  smile.gif . Both E-series seriously kill this time

p/s : I'm pestering my dad to get himself a blackberry bold. I wanna play with it  tongue.gif

If you're like me, once you go QWERTY, you won't look back!

And when you use a normal keypad-ed phone, you'll start missing QWERTY phones. tongue.gif

They say, once get used to it, never look back. Lol.

guys, i think i had settle my phone problem. Guess what's the stupid problem...

Caused by corrupted software/applications installed in memory card! I had default installed 4 games by supplier when getting the 4gb sandisk microsd but after few days bought it i found that all the games are disappeared under the folder INSTALLATIONS, but i didn't beware of this. Until few days ago i look into my whole phone applications carefully only i found that the games are gone but the APP MANAGER is still showing their present, but fail to remove! I tried to format my memory card and till now the phone is working fine after 5 days.

For my conclusion, the call log problem/phone book call problem is due to software faults!

dats the problem. i used to enjoy Imbi plaza. then there was Low Yat. Imbi soon died, leaving Low Yat to monopoly. kinda had to grew up with it...
Low Yat then gets a lot of LowYaLty from us all until the sellers dark side starts surfacing. now they have all perfected the art of deceit.
U can get cheated on everything! Especially on cheap bargains.
What i cannot take the most is the attitude of the seller there! Snobbish and Arrogant!
They really put us end users lower than their shoe. Just want money!
Giving Service? dat's B*LL**IT!

Thou, i still enjoy the forum.

and i still would love to be helped with this GPS thing. anybody? pls drop me a line.

Hi All,

Does anyone of you have this kind of problem where we can't unlock the keypad when we push up the slider? Mine seems sometime cant unlock. I need to close it then it will display keypad locked and push up again then only works. It happens when I put the phone on standby for couple of hours. sad.gif

Nope. Probably your phone problem I guess.

Question: If I'm to transfer images from my PC to my E66, how do I organize them in photo album? Instead of marking 1 by 1, make new folder, and move the marked ones into the new folder and rename it (all these done on the phone manually), is there anyway to just directly move a folder of photos into the E66 and it stays organized and listed?

This is because I tried moving a whole photo folder (400+ pics) into the E66's memory card under Images, the photos ended up scattering all in the Image folder when I access my E66. ehhhhhhhhhhhhh

I think both have their pros and cons..I personally preferred the UI of Nokia Maps..very very nice rclxms.gif ..while Garmin's Malsing map are more interesting as they have more POIs compared to Nokia's. I'd use Nokia Maps to search for addresses (reali powerful) but too bad its only a 3-month free trial..sigh.

Bro,

are u actually referring to the Gallery? One of the drawbacks of S60 is the Gallery..the only option is to use a 3rd party photo app such as the one I've recommended on main page icon_rolleyes.gif

Does the Nokia Maps need to do a map search via 3G or GPRS when u key in the address? Is there any localised map on that software? I tried it but it seems to be accessing the map somewhere via my 3G connection

The nokia maps we have comes pre-installed with Malaysia map. The onli time whn it's accessing 3G or GPRS is when using A-GPS for faster locktime, not the map. You can go to Nokia's website to download the maps and load it in your phone if u want biggrin.gif

I was playing around with my phone and realised something.

When I accessed my phonebook and then exit from it using the "exit" function button, I can go into my phonebook again in 1 second.
But if i were to exit from the phonebook using the "end call" key (the one with red symbol), when i access my phonebook again it'll take me almost 2 seconds..tried that a couple of times and still the same.

Anyone has that experience?

never experienced it before, but u can try to open the phonebook, and exit using "end call" key. Thn long press on "Home" key to check if your Contacts is one of the running apps..if it is, it shouldn't take too long. If its not in the list of running apps, then it's suppose to take longer. nod.gif

yeap..checked that smile.gif

still the same..tried both method (using the end call key to exit and using the "exit" function key on the right button when i'm in phonebook).
In both incident, the phonebook is not running in background, but the speed in loading the phonebook is quite significantly different. Re-accessing the phonebook after quiting using the "exit" button is still faster than re-accessing the phonebook after exiting using the end call button..

lol... that happens on most of new symbian phones... like my n95 also same. my theory would be, contact that close by "exit" left some "trails" in RAM while "red button" force exit the apps, so resulting a longer (another sec) time to open the app back. thats what i think la...

Easiet way out is to close the Contacts using "Home" key, this way ur contacts are still running in background, so accessing will be super fast. Dun worry bout the memory, coz Nokia E66 has ample RAM for use.. laugh.gif

The nokia maps we have comes pre-installed with Malaysia map. The onli time whn it's accessing 3G or GPRS is when using A-GPS for faster locktime, not the map. You can go to Nokia's website to download the maps and load it in your phone if u want  biggrin.gif

is it mean A-GPS is the software show u the road u want to go?....

cos everytime charge me only i open the application for 7 second....n i set the location to go it wont charge me any 1 sen....

Hi, just bought e66 for myself last night.

shoppingqueen - [25/10/08] [ORI CSL] [White Steel]

I din see anyone here bought an ori set with CSL warranty. I've told by the sales that CSL is the previous O' Conners. But this fon is completely Sg set, with Singtel logo inside also. a bit worry. The guy said its hard to find white color with other warranty, ie. avaxx or zitron. Anyway, this one comes with 15mths warranty. shoud b no problem? {i wish}

I bought it for RM 1750, with nokia bluetooth set (BH-100). A good buy?

Have a few questions here:
1. anyone downloaded msn messenger to the fon? any software recomendation?
2. Garmin, the sales said that i hv to pay RM 100++ to get the crack code. Can i get it online?
3. I dun understand how Garmin works. Is it whenever we wan to use the GPS, and we launch Garmin, it needs to be connected to GPRS? y cant WIFI? then, the data rate will be charged up til the launch? a bit concern here, dun wan to get a bomb in fon bill. this question may sounds a bit stupid. :-)
4. Opera Mini - it can replace the current web browser? when installing software, does it mean i have to download in my pc thten only transfer to fon?

TQ

Can't find white steel in AVAXX/ZITRON? I have it. Below RM1750 as well. ORIGINAL NOKIA only 2 distributors - AVAXX or ZITRON. IF I'm not mistaken, there are a few forumers who are selling ORI E66 @ RM1630, and BH100 is below RM100. laugh.gif

shoppingqueen,

added to the user list d. rclxms.gif The only ORI distributor is Avaxx and Zitron. CSL is considered AP, but their set usually sell at higher price than normal AP IMHO RM1750 is not reali a good buy, coz at this price can bargain for ORI+BT Headset too!! shocking.gif Can tell us which shop u buy from, so that othrs can be warned..furthermore, I'd advice u to change ur set for a Msia set, coz if its Sg set, chances are it could be water set..go bomb ur supplier!! vmad.gif
Any company can give long warranty..24mths, 36mths..but it makes no difference if their services are terrible, inexperience and slow rite.

Answer to ur questions:

1. u dun hav 2 download MSN, the phone comes with it..u can try the famous Fring software for chatting and more thumbup.gif
2. ur salesguy is definitely conning u..they shudnt charge u any penny IMHO since u'r their customer..try ur luck online sweat.gif
3. data charges onli applies whn u use A-GPS, whereby it connects via GPRS, 3G etc (depending on ur preferred settings) to lock ur position faster. It wont cause u a bomb coz its usually ~1kB for every A-GPS locking.
4. many ppl like to use the Opera browser, but I felt the built-in ori browser is good enuf. download the .sisx file, transfer to ur phone, thn install frm thr.

hope my answer helps.. blush.gif

Easiet way out is to close the Contacts using "Home" key, this way ur contacts are still running in background, so accessing will be super fast. Dun worry bout the memory, coz Nokia E66 has ample RAM for use..  laugh.gif

As far as I know, the GPS will be activated automatically as long as you run any GPS-related software. I've tried disabling the A-GPS and the time that I got locked on was pretty long. And like what ck_spaceboy mentioned, the data packet that goes through by using the A-GPS isn't much..the max that I've observed were around 5KB for each locking.

yeah, actually i did. just that for that instance, i'm in love with E66. I was actually thinking btw E66 and E71. when he show me the white steel set, i just wanted to buy it on the spot. when he told me CSL, i was a bit reluctant too. but when he mentioned o'conors, then i felt ok. coz i know they r nokia distributors, but din know that they were taken from being distributors for a while ago. me long time din buy nokia handfon oledi. sad.gif

i really kenot believe that i was cheated! i will always do research before buying anything, but this time, i jz failed. sad.gif anyway, there's not possible to get a refund. and the product code is not M'sia or SG. jz coudnt find it. wat to do? jz pray hard that this fon is not a defect one.

Perhaps try to play around with the connection settings manager and see if ther's anything wrong with the settings. However, by right ur new phone shudnt have such problem, u shud seek help frm ur supplier regarding this problem when u went and bombed them..hehe.

hahaha.

only sometimes nia, when phone is idle (which means i m not using it and not incoming calls). It shows "system error" when i try to search for WLAN. when it shows, u can only click "OK". but it stil there. i hvae to switch off the fon and restart. if the error occurs before i go confront him, then i can tell him wat's wrong. but it only happens after that. sad.gif i told him the fon lag, he said symbian fon is like that, i need to off and restart every 3-4 days. :| before buying he said system stable, after buying he said system lag. before buying said fon is original and authorised distributor, after buying said fon is original (still) and is from one of the authorised AP distributor... so far no other problem, i try to forget this by liking my fon more. hahaha. white is nice!

i will not go back to the supplier liao, oledi "fan mian". no need to bomb liao lah, useless.

hmm, while purchasing the fon, one guy approach me and selling this cheap IDD fon service to me. it's call UNOS (www.unos.com) and we can install this software. whever go oversea, we can get a local simcard and divert the call to this local number. free sms btw unos users. cheaper IDD rate/ receiving call. can check it out. but, i think GPRS charges still apply when opening the software and get connected? not too sure.

You mean the one where they're selling the E66 at RM1,399 and you'd have to pay RM 150 a month and sign a 24 month contract?

Nope, I don't think it's worth it. The difference in selling price between this, and the price you pay without having to bind yourself to a 24 months contract is too minimal! A E66 Ori set is selling at around RM 1,6xx now.

tech gadgets price will always drop, but it always depends on the demand:availability ratio. But I doubt that E66 and E71 prices will drop fast, perhaps after Christmas kua. Take N82 for example, its price is still so stable after years in the market due to the demand..

I've seen the n85 and n79 in MidValley..looks so nice in the photos but the actual phone is kinda a disappointment..

Nope, it only charge you per locking session. As long as you're locked on there's no more data packet transferred. BUT...if let's say halfway driving and your signal with the satelite got lost, another locking session will be activated automatically. When that happened, you will be charged again.

Bro,

is the Killer Mobile Blackballer software a filter list for ur contacts? If u wanna prevent some guys (or gays in ur case brows.gif ) to reach u, u can use the built-in Advanced Call Manager to filter the numbers which u wan to kill.

Thr are some software which only works with genuine certificates so perhaps u'll have to find some ways to "sign" ur software on the net.

u cant blame the seller actually..its all in the factsheet of Nokia E66 and the features are also stated in the reviews posted in the main page. Perhaps its best to do some comprehensive research before purchasing the phone.

Just switch OFF, take out SIM card, clean the gold contacts, put it back, switch ON again. See if that works?


Added on November 2, 2008, 1:57 pmIs there a voice dial command on the E66? Like you press the side voice command button and say "Joe" and it calls Joe for you. I think it has for Profiles, Voice Mail and other built-in functions but how about phonebook contacts? Has anyone tried? I cant seem to find that function.

Im not sure, perhaps you can play around and see if there's any options to change the command. But say for "LYN.ck_spaceboy", you can just speak "spaceboy" and it'll find the closest match as well as list down a list of closest matches. Still, I dun find voice commands effective enuf, I'd rather use my manual hand..kaka tongue.gif

the screen protector for the e66 is really difficult to find. I've asked around a few places but they don't seem to have em. my itchy hand pulled out the original screen protector and when i tried to put it back on, there are lots of bubbles... hehehhe...

and i would not suggest that anyone using e66 to go for phone protector as it would make the phone less class.... i really regret doing it.

Does anyone know where i can find the "big head" to "small head" power adaptor or converter? I have the old Nokia charger (for 6680) with big head and i want to use it as spare for the E66 which uses the small head. I bought one from a store in Wisma Sentral but the connection was bad and it couldnt charge unless i hold it at an angle. Bad QC. Any recommendations for a good one?

Has anyone tried YahooMail using the email function on E66? Not the Yahoo2Go application or via browser, just plain email in Messages. It doesnt sync well with the Y! inbox and it keeps asking me for username/pw and "to save? multiple times.

Ya, The Symbian has some problem synching with Yahoomail account. This is not a Symbian problem, but a Yahoo problem as their POP/IMAP features are limited, unless you pay for the Yahoo Plus account. I've tried some 3rd-party email software and it has same problem too. Meanwhile, using the browser to check mails are quite ok.

its not that, its actually your settings. You have to have the correct settings in both your email account and account on phone. Basically you can retrieve the mail from the mail server, and retain it after deleting from the phone, or delete them completely off the server.

I copied all the tracks and sound clips from my old 6680 to the E66 but when i play them it says "no activation key". Does it mean i have to pay and download the stuff again? sad.gif

they got sell Avaxx warranty phone but they marked the warranty sticker as of October...WTF mad.gif ..its already November so that means I will lose 1 month warranty period if I buy it...some more paying for original warranty price...why the heck they must mark the warranty sticker before its even sold to customer? hmm.gif any clue on this matter?

thats why I prefer CSL warranty..at least got 15 months warranty plus its cheaper...look at adrian_huan report on the SC at SP...sigh..poor service by authorise dealer vmad.gif

I believe coz the phone is either open-box, or used, or someone confirmed buying the phone but didnt collect..

CSL got 15 months, but some other APs has 18 months and even 24months. There's a seller in tradezone that offers 36 months + some sort of phone insurance shocking.gif

IMHO CSL is not much different from other APs like First Choice and Comsat..but they kinda arrogant coz they sells their AP PHONES at HIGHER PRICE!! And if you read this whole thread, one forumer just posted before how he got CHEATED by CSL... whistling.gif

depends on where you downloaded the songs. If lets say u downloaded from Nokia Music Store, you can only listen in one device, and the files are not transferable.

problem is they wont simply replace with a new phone coz this affects their profit margin, only unless the phone is above repair.

I highly doubt it, as I know they will only replace when they've confirmed the phone is beyond repair. We cant just ask for a new phone anyhow..else sure bankrupt biggrin.gif

Thn you need to check with Maxis, but as I know most OTA music downloads cannot be transferred or shared to avoid illegal distribution. Most prob the activation code is encrypted within the audio clips..

Nokia would repair or service your phone based on the date you purchase, as long as you have the original receipt. I know this because had the experience of sending a nokia 9500 which had a warranty sticker that back dated from the date of purchase for service. No problemo. biggrin.gif

not really, as the stickers are only sticked on the phone when arriving at distributor's office and marked only when you purchase them. I've confirmed this with some of my phone-seller frens.

I've been on and off on WM phones for some time now, as I have 3 lines and I can afford to use different platforms at the same time. So not so huge a gap. tongue.gif

Diamond is sold.

E66's firmware:

102.07.81
12-07-2008
RM-343

I didn't notice anyone mentioning, so what's the latest firmware?
