i tried updating my QuickOffice. it says update failed

mine is version 6.1.94 trying to upgrade to 6.2. any ideas? do i need to uninstall my QuickOffice fully before upgrading? i remember upgrading to 6.1.94 was easy breezy. dunno why this time got error

Hello to all bros in LY forum, i just bought myself a Grey Steel E71, wanted a Black E71 but due to no stock and can't wait as my HP RW6828 is faulty....so get the grey one. mine is a AP set, after reading the E71 thread, become abit regret as here got bros sell ori with good price.

So far i think E71 is cool and have almost everything that a phone user needs (Except track ball and touch screen), i'm still NEW and yet to explore the potential of E71. So hope that bros here can help out some of my curious.

1) Battery life : I checked feedback on net..some last 2-4days, but mine is only 1 DAY (No Wlan, No bluetooth and with switched to only GSM, and 5 min on phone, 15 min play song, 5 text msg) that's all i got from my E71... worst then my HP RW6828 that has a faulty battery (atleast my HP i get to ON bluetooth for whole day) Any1 experience this and norm how many days the E71 last u?

2) I use a AP set, so i found out after i go nokia to update my firmware, it's Euro firmware which don't have Chi and cannot read chinese. So i can stand those "squares" when i receive chi msg or play chi mp3, i have to go back and ask them to reinstall for me, and they installed V210.21.006.

I saw this V3 thread got V300 firmware...but anyone have it? can help me on geting V210.21.006 and V300? But i need the asia version which is (Eng, Malay, Indo & Chi) language..

I really appreciate bros that can help a newbie here and to those that keep this forum up

use microsoft outlook, very convenient

1. use your SE PcSuite to synchronize your SE phone contacts to Outlook.
2. Use your Nokia PC Suite to synchronize from outlook to Nokia.

1 thing though, set the dialing country to other than malaysia (i use mexico), if not numbers all will be +60 12xxxxxxx (got space between 0 and 1). i'm using outlook to sync both my SE K810i and Nokia E71..

When we connect to EDGE, the phone will ask us to connect using GPRS (WAP2.0) or DigiInternet. Are they the same?

xD Thanks bro.. gonna try it

digiinternet is boradband, faster than gprs

For DiGi terms, it's EDGE connection right? I've subcribe to DATA UNLIMITED PLAN so I guess I can select DIGI INTERNET when connecting to internet.

mine can last 3-4 days even with 3g network on, with some sms,calls,games,msn on,surfing n gps.
u can try go to ovi store and get "battery extender" software, its a 14days trial..have it a go and try. maybe the settings u chose drain the battery alot

im happy wit v21, i read at nokia forum v30 alot of ppl complain.

Digi broadband support on phone d meh? I m unlimited plan as well i choose diginet though.. Edge is 2.5 top speed at 293kps nia..

That means I won't get extra charge for my wifi..? Thanks

And I am new user of e71, grey steel.. Add me to the list..

I got the problem that the menu will hang sometimes, so I changed it to other shortcut key like clocck, so far I tried one day and no menu hang problem.. But before that my phone menu will hang twice a day.. I think someone in this thread occur this problem too.. You may try the method mention above.. Good day

Bro, that's y i was abit frus of the bat life with so little usage.
Lucky i did some survey b4 buying, so i requested to install Garmin, and they charge me $ with that..so a little extra is no choice cause not familiar with this phone and tweaks yet.
My E71 no chinese word at the keyboard (above chr /ctr key) i checked with the back is RM - 346..like that. I use the product code to update and nokia site gave me a V200.18.. which no chinese support in read or write. So i have to goto the shop to ask for help and they helped me to put in V210 now and with chinese support (sms to read n' write) the language in setting back to 4 language. which is what i wanted.
From this forum i know that got V300, but i'm not confident to update as i scare will be like previous exp, update a Euro ver which only got Eng, french and etc.
I thought of getting the asian version of V210 firmware is for my reinstallation in case the worst happens .

As for my bat life, i request to change a New bat..on next week.

if unistall quickoffice... then update it.. ?? the quickoffice wont be in the phone anymore?

its when you wanna call someone up then its popup. it connection error actually.. how meh?

battery life for my E71 roughly about 4-5 days if i'm just call and sms only...

but when i'm on garmin twice daily, song, video music etc my battery life...just 2-3 days only...

i think..mine not that bad...ori ma..

go check your fon if got file name "CARDRUNNER" delete that file, it drains your battery from what i read. and make sure garmin setting auto startup disabled.

hey all..im new here...
does theres any sites that can download free software for E71?
please advice...thanks
