yeah bro i tried that, but still has got flash....
whats wrong?

cant detect the phone guess i have to bring it back to NCC. darn....

anyone got any idea to solve this problem? which is when n97 powered up, it will just show nokia brand on the screen with the white background. nothing else happened.

this means your fw got prob... did you try it in the shop when buying it?

Hmm i just tried installing Garmin Mobile XT version 5.00.50.. Everything is working fine.. I was using version 5.00.40 earlier. No wonder got problem on the screen.. hehe

for the flash thing.. really dunno... does the icon - slash lighting?

i also dunno bout the flash, i tried every single option and still has flash.
lucky 2ndary camera doesnt have though or i'll need shades man

yeah.. flash same like mine also even off.. when u press button to focus the light will come on.. but when u snap no flash.. weird..

it shud have no flash at all..

Er, this has been implemented into phones for quite some time.

It's for security and discretion purposes. New phones have this feature so that when you take someone's picture, they will know it.

the light cannot be off,it is too alert the person that u are snapping their picture. incase some ppl decided to take naughty pictures

i tried my phone before bringing it home. i was using my phone for the past 3 weeks until today, just now when i restart my phone cause i feel that it is getting sluggish.

after restart, it just stuck at nokia screen.

how do i save like sms directly into mass memory rather than phone storage?
it seems phone storage is pretty small with only 70mb compared to mass memory...

anyone can help? thanks

Go to Messaging > Option > Setting > Others > Memory in use > Mass Memory

Thanks so much

I Had The Exact Same Problem As You Too.. The Phone Just Takes Forever To Boot.. The Trick To Solve This Problem Is To Turn Off Your Phone (By Removing The Battery And Place It Back), Plug In The MicroUSB Charger, Wait For The Phone To Boot Up Till The Screen With The Battery Bars At Top Right, Now Hold The On Button To Turn On The Phone.. This Time The Phone Should Boot To The Standby Screen... =)

Hope This Helps!

Hi, I recently tried to save movie into my N97 using the OVI program provided.

The 1st movie converted and transferred like a charm. The movie was perfect for viewing.
Its initial size was 700MB and after conversion, 800MB++.

Then I use the same method to transfer the 2nd movie and 3rd movie.. Didn't work.
Both of the same format as the first, about the same size too but both after convert, become the size of about 30MB.
they'd play like video only there's no image. just sound.

Do you guys have the same problem?

Please Help.

Thanks.

Don't think OVI CD (Ovi suite) provide any video conversion software. I don't know how you did it because i couldn't find it anywhere. What i would suggest you to do is, go download Nokia PC Suite instead from the nokia website or click here. There is a component called "Nokia Video Manager" inside, which convert all video files to MP4 and i find it very user friendly and make effective conversion. A medium quality conversion will typically reduce the video size to about 1/4 of the original size, while a high quality conversion will simply half the original video size. The output can be played using the built in Real Player.
