2) How would I know if I'm using A-GPS. Is it when at the start they ask me whether wanna go online? I assume online means that I will be connected to the service provider which then means A-GPS

3) There is no new firmware at the moment but I'm refering to the future in case they update their software etc. Will be hard for me to keep going to the service center coz I'll be leaving overseas after CNY.

good luck weyh bro

2) yes you are correct

3) In future, if you wish to upgrade firmware, mostly the NSU is simple and successful. dont worry too much even if it fails. only go to service center at that case.

1) sorry but I have no idea on the you tube coz i'm not a fan of it

2) 7 days = voice assisted, Free = without voice. Both are able to utilized the Positioning and Map function FOC

3) Nop it won't brick that easy depending on what you did., it's just tat 5800 is so newly launched. Considering M'sia is always slow when it comes to technology it's understandable that the CD for updating is not that updated either. For example, just go to the website and go to the 5800 page. You can't even find the OVI softwares inside. Best is to just give NCC to update since it's already covered in warranty.. at least they will be help responsible while you can go shopping or something while waiting

4) The tube can play MP4 and WMV file without problem for now... whereas the rest.. no news yet =/
It depends on the video's setting/personalization... even if you put in an MP4 file, if it's not converted properly it still can't be played

1) This is just a guess because I don't have the phone yet. Does mobile Youtube display video in this small resolution? Have you tried using the normal Youtube?

Thanks. Questions 2 and 3 are answered.

Added on January 22, 2009, 1:20 amI guess that's right. I was told that the web browser for nokia 5800 renders the videos smaller that it's suppose to be.
I don't know how (if it's even possible) to use normal youtube on the phone.
For the same video when I watched it online with my PC its much higher resolution.

Try clicking "view desktop version" on the bottom of the page.

too many threads about this, but i wish to ask a simple question: -

is the audio good for palying songs? i am beginning to think abt this phone.

thanks.

Wow it really works!! It's a little slower but definately what I wanted. Thanks.
Question 1 answered.

Question 4 also answered.

You're welcome. Just hoping you're using WLAN or an unlimited data plan...

yeap using wlan.
thx for reminder

I back when I restore, the file will go back in there.

To my surprise, it's really not bad after all. To be honest, as an audiophile I'm really impressed because I've never own a Nokia XM before and I don't usually trust any phone sound quality be it SE or others. I can give two thumbs up for this.

Is it normal the picture quality very blur when taking pictures but after taking it the picture quality is actually better then what the preview shows.

When I aiming, the quality seen is very blur like a picture taken from vga camera, but after snapping it the preview of the picture becomes better by alot.

Dude.. u asking for the capability of Nokia XpressMusic line up phone??

thats because ur 5800 has auto focus feature. it focus on the object before snapping it.

if u want to see objects clearer when previewing (before actually snapping it), just press the camera button halfway until the white rectangle in the middle of the screen turns green.. and press the camera button the whole way to snap the picture.

hope i give u the right answer.

An audiophile can give two thumbs up for a phone's speakers..that's something new

Guys , how to solve the Youtube problem? My tube can load the video but only sound come out, no video/picture.

I'm surprise no one mention about the OTA firmware update function available in the Nokia 5800. You can easily update ur firmware even without sending over to NCC or connect to PC.

Excerpt-"The phone flaunts an amazing frequency response keeping within the +-1db range effortlessly. Furthermore, for most of its range it is right on the perfect track. Noise level and dynamic range readings are also praiseworthy and so is THD. IMD and crosstalk are not as impressive but still quite good. All in all, you will be enjoying some of the industry best quality audio with Nokia 5800 XpressMusic."



Test Frequency response Noise level Dynamic range THD IMD + Noise Stereo crosstalk
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic +0.09, -0.77 -92.2 92.1 0.013 0.297 -75.0
Nokia N85 +0.28, -1.19 -94.4 95.4 0.305 0.701 -88.1
Nokia N96 +0.52, -2.14 -90.6 90.7 0.016 0.364 -73.5
HTC Touch HD +0.20, -2.29 -86.7 89.2 0.024 0.253 -86.1
HTC Touch Diamond +0.35, -1.12 -85.3 87.9 0.027 0.267 -86.3
Apple iPod Touch 2G +0.04, -0.05 -91.4 91.5 0.0027 0.012 -90.0
Apple iPhone 3G +0.52, -1.05 -89.9 90.1 0.0033 0.016 -93.1

Conclusion: The audio quality is excellent but still not at par with Apple iphone and Ipod products. My advise is if u already own a full fledged handphone, and an audiophile type of listener, get the ipod touch 2G.
