Mini Introduction

Announced at Nokia's Remix event in London, at the beginning of October 2008, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is a mid-range, music focused phone, running S60 5th
Edition on Symbian OS 9.4, with a 3.2 megapixel camera, integrated GPS, WiFi and HSDPA connectivity, and a 3.2 inch touch screen. It's the last item on this feature list
which draws attention to what would otherwise be a fairly standard mid range phone. For the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is one of Nokia's most widely talked about (and
leaked) phones of recent memory. There's no doubt that it is going to garner attention, coming in the wake of the recent spate of touch phones, including, of course, the
Apple iPhone. While it's not Nokia's first touch phone (Nokia 7700/7110) or its first recent touch device (Nokia N810), it is the first S60 touch enabled phone and is a
significant landmark in Nokia's mobile device story. However, it is worth noting from the start that it is not "Nokia's touch phone", instead it is the first in a portfolio of
touch enabled phones from Nokia. This is an important distinction because, while the 5800 can tell us much about Nokia's touch platform generally, it can only be fairly
assessed in the context of its own market positioning (music focused, cost of 279 Euro before taxes and subsidies). (Continue More in REVIEWS)

5) KNOWN PROBLEMS & SOLUTION FOR YOUR TUBE

DIY FIX: Speaker volume problem.

(Do it at your own risk. If you can't handle it, send it back to Nokia Care Centre and let the professionals do it for you)

=====================================================

Articles & Photos courtesy of Snake from mynokia.su & our LYN forumer jye'n.

Before you start, there's a suggestion by the Snake.

**Attention! All the action is desirable to carry out in the bathroom, because there is no dust because of the humidity.

1) Use the plectrum, open the top cover/lid starting from the camera button.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


You should remove only the plastic 'frame' which locks the screen to the phone's body. It is detachable on its own (no screen, no metal parts).

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Oh hey, you look lost!!!
No worries, here's a Youtube LIVE demo about the DIY steps!!


2) This is how it looks like when the earpiece is in place:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Next, use a flat-head ('-' type precision tool or any small screw driver.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


3) Removing the earpiece will reveal the two contact points on the mainboard for the earpiece.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


4) Here's the default appearance of the earpiece (bottom):

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


To make sure the pins can touch the contact points (highlighted above) properly, I bended the earpiece pins 'upwards'. (Be very careful here not to break the pins. You may want to hold points A and B while bending.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Now, you're done with bending. Next, put back the earpiece. Here's the tricky part, as you may have forgotten which is the correct position to put in. No worry, the part is keyed, meaning, it can only go in one way. Try the other way if the 1st trial fails. DO NOT force it in, it should go in smoothly.

5) Put back the the cover and the plastic 'frame'. Now you're done
and can forget about the earpiece problem forever smile.gif
