the last 2 days' i've been shooting a lot of pictures with my N79. overall it give very good picture quality. but there's a few shots where the flash don't synch with the image capture. the flash fires a bit slower, resulting in my pictures got overexpose near the corner where the flash is.. so sad

juz upgraded. had a scare just now coz didn't go smoothly had to retry twice.
but everything ok. don't look like any improvement to the phones, didn't notice any new icon maybe because i had my themes on, and installed quite a number of application like ovi store earlier.

feels a litttttlle slow though, just a little. maybe its psychological

to install Garmin mobile ONLY... to install only ah...
1. connect usb cable - select USB disk mode (not pc suite mode)
2. click the installer for ur garmin on ur pc.. let it run, when it detect your card on ur phone, select the drive that points to it..
3. install and finish - done
4. unplug usb cable, your phone will return to normal and auto-start the garmin on ur phone (coz it detects it)
5. repeat the same for support files (voice nav, etc)

i've heard about your problem before, but my friend (nokia e71) don't know how to fix it and he notice it clashed with google maps, so he formatted his phone and everything ok liao.

pc suite - normal sync software lor
ovi suite - more feature packed sync software

i haven't tried to sync n79 with pc suite before, normally i install ovi suite, and used the PC Sync software from there to manage my PIM

if you see ur phone's middle button, surrounded by the navigation "pad" or "buttons", you can actually, move your finger around it.. and it will scroll through your menu like a wheel.. see below..

Added on July 27, 2009, 2:29 pmyou can try to connect her phone to the latest pc suite (just to make sure it has the latest drivers) and see if it works..
if cannot, then you install ovi suite, but choose only the software you want, for synching, ovi suite calls it "Pc sync"

in all honesty.... it's useless
the only time i use it is to scroll through the menus.. which i don't do often

just earlier today.. i tried to select a video with the navi-wheel.. it took me a few tries.. and it was very frustrating!

mine was ok.. i spent 2 days running a lot of programs in the background at the same time, really stressing the phone.. using 3G some more..

- tweets60
- web surfing (open 4 windows
- music player
- seven email
- messaging (for inbox, sms, email)
- log
- handy shell
- handy taskman
- msn messenger

>2 hours of solid web surfing, email, chatting, listening to music, nothing crashes or slowdown on the phone.. excellent experience!
battery only used 1/3 during this time..

wish i had a n97 though because of the bigger screen and better qwerty keypad, coz a lot of viewing and typing.. hahaha

n85 is slower than n79.. tested..
if money no issue, i would go for n86 or n97
also, new phone released E52

juz want to ask you guys.. what do u think is a good price for a second hand original n79 is worth? if used for 2-3 months?

i'm like the n97 very much.. thinking of selling my n79 to upgrade.. but then let me do some calculation first for my budget

will let you know if i'm going to sell.. it's grey by the way.. with mocha, red and white xpress on cover..

i wud choose n79, because its much faster.
not impressed with n85 although it has amoled and review say better camera quality.
price is higher, but feature the same, and slower than n79...
but n86.. now thats a different story..

not sure if using the same cpu.. forgot and lazy to check.. but there is a real life difference when you use both n79 and n85.. can feel that n85 is much slower and lag than n79

forumers here will tell you otherwise, 8/10 have no problem.. right guys?
i don't really trust handphone shop sellers when it comes to smartphones, i'm not generalizing but not many of them knows how to squeeze or make the most out of symbian smartphones, so your mom may be dealing with one.. OR.. your mom should start to avoid the seller coz he sells a lot of problematic handphones!

sometimes the recommend u certain model.. coz they want to clear stock.. like n82

welcome to the n79 family hcfoo!

i'm using tweets60 mainly for twittering, though fring works ok ok only.

to check your software version, you can use the "SW checker" icon or press *#0000# on your phone/
latest firm ware is 30.019 released 11/06/2009 but you can choose not to upgrade.
normally, upgrades is recommended if you face certain issues with phones, or when nokia pushes out newer applications like Ovi or Nokia maps

i got mine straight from nokia.. i think this is how i got it.. if i remember correctly..

the gmail app have no problem downloading attachment, but i don't see any option to upload attachment

you need the quickoffice app to open ms office document, the premier version allows you to edit. i'm not sure if it comes with n79.

i installed garminxt on my own, search the web how to do it. garmin xt is just the application, you need the maps to power it, thats where malsing maps comes in.

i use Fring (free) to tie all my IM, supports YM, MSN, Gtalk. you can try nimbuzz or ebuddy as well.

there's a lot of apps, so just install a few first.. test it out..

if you don't want to "ehem" the garmin, and you have an unlimited data package.. can consider the newer google maps..
not bad also

Added on August 24, 2009, 3:01 pmfm transmitter works very well.. but u have to remember that your car radio antenna is on top of the car.. (top right or back center of the car), so don't think that putting nearer to ur radio head unit will help..


ver30 does nothing to me, and i noticed no new buttons or functionality

my n79 is grey with red cover..

yeah.. pix quality pretty nice
i'll just upload one only for comparison.

nope.. the pix quality remains the same no matter which firmware i use.. need to adjust the settings like sharpness/saturation etc
