i din use the integrated IM in E71. Instead i downloaded MSN messenger from Download!

If u r user of a different IM, trying using Nimmbuzz. Im not sure how ergonomic izzit, but frm the reviews, i heard its good.

http://www.nimbuzz.com/en/mobile/pc/download

i'm using this version too. working perfectly.

i want to use YM as my IM, can that nimbuzz do that eh?

can. pls refer here: http://www.nimbuzz.com/en/mobile

After trying Nimbuzz, I still prefer Slick as my primary IM software. It supports file transfer and even buzz/nudge respectively for Y! and MSN.

oh i got slick installed, but din use it cuz i used MSN. OH, thx fr the info about the features on Slick.

I shall try it next time i'm in a hot spot. Btw, anyone have tried hacking their E71s?

I just bought the IS from tan alliance not long ago.. got it last week i tink.. Wah took me an hour + to apply it to the whole fon.. n u noe e71 the back casing is made of tiny 'holes' , so after applying multiple times the IS just get stuck and form bubbles within the holes.. they are quite visible too..I've tried many times reapplying it but it turned out the same
On top of tat, the screen protector is kinda thick.. so after applying u can see like a rough surface on top of ur screen.. its not as clear as normal screen protectors .. But acceptable also lar coz its military grade ma
Another thing is that u noe the 2 chrome sides? Its really disappointing that the IS doesnt cover that 2 sides

Anyway.. its not like i wana spoil their sales .. Its still a good product.. at least now i dun nid to use a bulky pouch/crystal casing anymore Btw the IS feels like holding a plastic wrapper.. neh u noe those types where they use to wrap food to keep inside the fridge? yeah something lidat.. It feels kinda good as it wont get smudged by ANY FINGER PRINTS!! including the front n back.. which is v good compared to our naked e71 ahha

Dun have pics to show coz i dun have a good camera.. fon camera cannot take macro shots to show the bubbles Will try to boro cam from my bro to take some pics..

Yea charles.. I've hacked my fon before..and it did not take longer than 10 minutes.. I did it bcoz my fon is an AP fon so its okay.. since claiming warranty is not based on imei like ori fons.. so if u're using ori set DUN hack ur fon if not u will void ur warranty!!
After hacking i can install any ahem ahem software.. those signed and unsigned ones and i dun nid to change my date to install 'expired certificate' softwares .. Really vvv convenient .. Last time b4 hacking, 7 out of 10 of the softwares i downloaded kenot be installed.... So that's basically it.. If u're a great fan of applications i tink u shud hack ur fon.. provided that its ap hehe

Oh ya btw.. yealo hp prices increasing like mad.. e71 ori selling for 1420.. the price u saw 1 was wrong price.. partner made a mistake.. i've changed it dy

used for few days.. 3 4 hari

Arika-chan,

Thanks for the review on ur IS-equipped E71. If I were to get d IS, covering the chrome surface is a MUST! Now dat you've mentioned it, I think I'll opt for normal hp skinning. I dun really need a scratch-proof cover, just as long as it keeps my E71 clean while maintaining d shiny' naked phone look. Hehehe.

Another must-have-software for your E71.

Watch (..and save) Youtube clips from your E71 with Mobitubia.

I just updated my E71 to the newest 200. firmware.

The phone is a lot faster and no hangups.

GPS was an instant lock from my house (before it took 10 mins)

I have the quick access to my contacts by just typing their name at the home screen (asia version was disabled before)


I hacked my phone before, and i dont regret one bit upgrading. It is well worth it .

Just remmeber to backup your phone.


Oh yeah, new themes are awesome

I noticed, my LCD screen seems more sharp and nice after the firmware upgrade

oh. so hav u try reformatting ur MC?

is there any other way to update the firmware apart from sending to nokia or using the pc-sync thing?? the pc sync very slow la

and if send to nokia how long will it take for them to update the firmware

Yeah... was kinda sad when i realized that there wasnt a cover for tat

O?? GPS FASTER? dam.. mine still runs on the 100.07.76 AND I WANT THE QUICK ACCESS TO CONTACTS! my ap fon is not equipped wif that function too..
But after flashing my firmware my gps garmin have to reinstall rite even it was installed in the mem card?
Hmms.. but faster GPS and quick access to contacts is what all i've dreamed for..
