red...i will test out the earpiece problem later.

The earpiece problem can happen anytime so very hard to test. It may be fine for a week or like mine last a day and then got problem, or like some here no problem so far. At least you know Nokia will do something about it as it is under warranty.

Here you go, the guide how to install: its actually in the readme file:

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic - Talking Dictionary Installation Steps
1. Download the file (TalkingDict.zip) to your PC.
2. Unzip the file and then copy all content to memory card, i.e. copy “Data”, “private”, “resource”, “sys” and “TalkingDictionary_S60_SA_siged.sis” to memory card’s ROOT. (Please refer to diagram below)
3. On handset, please press menu button and go to Application > File Manager > Memory card. Click Talking Dictionary_S60_SA_siged.sis to start installation.

Haha...yes, u are right. Didn't think of that.  smile.gif
But I guess if one really wants to check and read emails, an s60 device probably not as good as WinMo6 or iPhone
*
Haven't tried the iPhone but I never really liked surfing with a mobile device, no matter how good I'd rather use a netbook at the least. Nevertheless, it's great to have that ability. I feel the 5800 browser has much room to improve, albeit I say this with my limited experience of using mobile browser.

As for e-mails: same thing but great we have the capability.

5800 Wi-Fi Bug??

Hi all, I think there's a bug in the 5800 wifi's connection. After I connected to an access point, it seems that I am unable to disconnect from it, even though the access point is already out of range (few kilometres away!!).

The Connectivity menu still showed "Connected" status. Selecting "Disconnect WLAN" from the Options menu does not have any effect whatsoever. If i tried to connect to another access point, the phone will give error message saying "WLAN connection already active. Close it and try again".

(I think i have the latest firmware e.g. v11.0.008 dated 09/12/08).

So far the only solution is to reboot the phone. Anyone experiencing the same situation? Anyone knows how to hard-killed the wifi connection?

Cheers
*
Happened to me only once. After that I've so far have had no problems with disconnecting the wi-fi, instead I discovered that the 5800 will automatically disconnect if you connect through an app. It's only when you connect Wi-fi by itself when the disconnection is needed.

wow.. so many bugs... i thought of getting this phone today.... urrr...

Most of the bugs are firmware issues that should be fixed in due course. Don't worry about it. The 5800 remains as one of the most compelling touch screen phone right now because of the price/value/features. The more owners would mean better suppport and eventually a large number of 3rd party software. So just get the phone! Join us. nod.gif

Well if you go back and read a little, there are Atlantis & Eaglecomm both at SS2, Giant Kelana Jaya Kiosk and more. Do some searching. Or call Nicky: 012-6666675, I bought mine from him. His shop is in Pudu Plaza.

I've been experimenting with bluetooth file transfers and I discovered that I cannot send a very large file via bluetooth, dunno if that's a file size limit imposed or is part of the bluetooth technology limitations. At first I was thinking because I set my messages to save in the Phone Memory as normally files transferred will be notified via a message, so I set it to memory card and tried again, file failed to send. BTW file size was in excess of 500MB. Hmmmm hmm.gif

Found a useful application for our 5800, especially those frequent flyers, it's called WorldMate - has weather, currency, time and flight information if you buy the Pro license, get it here:

H...yr phone memory is far less than 500mb..U set yr sms to save in phone memory. Sure it cannot go in. logically.

I would suggest use sync cable or card reader for this kind of task. It is more reliable and faster.
*
Agreed but there should not be any file size transfer limitation theoretically. If the limitation is the phone memory, then when we set message memory to the memory card, the limit should be the free space the memory card has. Unfortunately that does not work too. So it should be a system issue, maybe Nokia developers overlooked this as they do not expect people to normally transfer huge files via bluetooth. Why I tested this is in the cases where we do not have a card reader or a USB cable available, bluetooth is the only other option, therefore if it has limitations then the utility of the bluetooth is reduced.
