New phone

[matt]

While we're all hanging around drinking coffee, I just want to show off my new phone - Nokia N97. It's a shame none of the cool software I had on my Sony Ericsson P910i will run on it though

Not frequent travellors, daily travellors - home to work and back

PS: My latest phone is a Nokia Xpress Music. The cheapest Ive bought so far. I note that as time passes by Im opting for cheaper phones.

Nokia 6020 -> Nokia E50 -> Nokia Xpress Music.

I wonder why???

Oh yeah.. Im a Nokia junkie too. Hmmm....

[Former Member]

This is Law of Inverse propertion ;-).... means your exp is increasing and phones are decreasing..... So when you are busying Nokia 1100 or say 3315 (if by any chance exist in market )

Thanks,

The worst part is I dont know why I bought an XpressMusic when I just dont listen to music in my phone. (I listen to songs only in my Apple iPod.) I guess the saleswoman was BIG influence

[Former Member]

after a break from series of Walkman series phones from Sony Ericcson phone I moved to Nokia 5800 Xpress Music, Especially for its bigscreen & GPS. You guys can try Nokia Sports tracker application on it. Its a good GPS based application. Apart from that its a best mobile phone for music followed by walkman phones by sony.

Guys,

we were discussing about the new phone, and this morning my N97 has been stolen , so now have to buy new phone, your suggestions are welcome...... but this time no hi fi phone, just the phone by which i can check mails, do SDN and music will be added advantage.....

Thanks,

Thats sad, hope you had the mobile theft software installed on it which helps track down your mobile.

[matt]

Get another N97. You'll see that the models they sell now don't have HiFi. Mine certainly doesn't.

[Former Member]

No praveen, No mobile theft Software , even the cop said forget it and buy new one..... Grrrr.....

@Matt--> I am not going to buy N97 again, though i lost that but after your exp i will consider some other option.....

Thanks,

Raja

[former_member205352]

Oh thats bad then.Tough luck.

You can try HTC mobiles with windows OS which has almost all facilities at low(pretty low for high end phones) price.

Android OS ones are better but costlier 😮

[Former Member]

Thanks Praveen, I too thinking about HTC....by the way which HTC model is best? Diamond is some what heavy on my pocket.....

Thanks,

Raja

[matt]

What did you use for SDN? The browser included with N97 doesn't let me log in. And I couldn't get opera working.

matt

[Former Member]

For SDN i use My spare cell Nokia 6233 and opera works pretty fine in it.....

Thanks,

Raja

[JPReyes]

Yeap... I use Opera Mini and SDN works perfectly fine in my Samsung

Regards

Juan

[matt]

Yay. I can SCN through my phone! Only works with wlan, the trick was to connect first, then launch Opera mini.

Hi Guys!!!

Please give some valuable feedback for iphone for usage in India. Good??? Bad???

Thanks...

Vishwa.

Hi Vishwa,

Here you go from [another medium |http://cellphoneforums.net/general-cell-phone-forum/t300795-need-feedback-iphone-clone-cect-india-chennai.html];-)

PS: Just for fun

[matt]

I have to say the iPhone lacks in a few areas.

1. It can't receive vCard messages via SMS

2. It can't run Java mobile apps

3. It isn't multi-tasking.

But it does look pretty.

[ThomasZloch]

It has iBeer and Doom Resurrection

Yes, some specs are falling behind compared to other phones, but you can't beat the overall user experience, imho. Now with the 3GS the response time when clicking around is really quick too. I'm happy.

Cheers

The specs were behind other phones before it was launched! I can get Sim3 for mine. Which seems odd. Of course your 3GS is fast - it's not multitasking.

I'll definitely agree about user experience - my son has the iTouch iPod thingy.

[Former Member]

I Love my HTC Touch VIVA....simple n cute with Win Mo 6.1

[former_member181995]

I'm pleased with Nokia 3315 .

May be I'm chasing the History?

Nice weekend

Hi,

Don't Know much, but my IPhone (Unlocked** one) is working fine. Only problem with unlocked Iphone* is, it will get locked after Firmware upgrade 3.1.

• Unlocked IPhone - Bought outside india, in some contract, lets say contracted by TPHone / AT&T, and Unlocked through jailbreaker.*

• Unlocked iPhone - bought at IPhone Store (in my knowledge, In HK only, from where i bought, donno about US).*So be careful if you are using IPhone in India and wat to upgrade Firmware.

rest, IPhone is a dream phone to use, My rating is 5 out of 5.

Regards

Aashish

[ThomasZloch]

Always wait for the hacks to be out and tested before upgrading firmware

Thomas

[aashish_sinha]

Thats true. One of my friends is crying foul after upgrading firmware to 3.1. There is no hacks till now :)..

But i am relaxed coz of Unlocked Iphone bought at apple store :).

Aashish

[ThomasZloch]

I see. To clarify the terms as I understand them, unlocking means that you can use any SIM card with the phone, whereas jailbreaking means that you can install programs which are not available via the app store.

With an "official" phone you don't need to unlock, but a jailbreak can still come in handy

Thomas

[aashish_sinha]

Exactly .

But app store have almost all the necessary applications until or unless you search for some bluetooth file send to any other phone. Then we have to rely heavily on jailbreak software.

The best feature given by firmware upgrade 3.0 was to use your IPhone as modem and use phone's internet connectivity (Internet teethering). Before this, Jailbreak has the monopoly of internet teethering for IPhone.

I can open any website from my IPhone, but didn't tested any SAP Webapplication (WDA/EP).

Anyways Iphone Rocks !!!

Hi Matt,

I also have N97, and i guess its bundled with some great features. The reason why sony and nokia;s application is not compatible because they want something unique in their phone. Anyways, Its nice to know that you have both P990i and N97

Thanks,

Raja

[matt]

They're both symbian OS - but different versions. And the software I was using wasn't developed by sony or nokia, but 3rd parties. Some of it has been developed for oldre Nokias, but, alas, not for symbian 60/5. I'm not concerned that I can't just load the old stuff onto my new phone - I can't even purchase a Symbian 60/5 version. grrrr

[Former Member]

Yeah, Thats right, So cell phone companies now has to come with an idea, so that you can change your OS as per your Use,

And now i feel you have a Great knowledge about that Cell software, Till now i was not knowing about 60/5 or anything.......

Thanks,

Raja

[Former Member]

or a Dual OS option will do..

Android or Apple iphone OS (Mac) will do for me. Symbian is volatile.

[matt]

Well, I've got the replacement for one of my apps - language dictionary. It's a pre-installed free application.

[Former Member]

Great..... Now you might be some what Happy

Happy Week End

Thanks,

May be I'd have something to contribute to the discssions here when I get my next [phone|http://www.pomegranatephone.com/]

[amit_khare]

Well, this is a kind of a subject I always love to talk.

I just bought my new [HTC Touch Diamond|http://www.htc.com/in/product/touchdiamond/overview.html] - an Absolute charm.

I am using HTC since last 1-1/2 years now previously I had HTC S710 which is a wonderful phone and new Nokia E75 is mostly based on it.

Anyways, let me stay away from any discussion here as I am completely Anti-Nokia person and favors Sony more than any other phone.

PS - I want to buy XPERIA X1 but it was a bit over budget for me

[matt]

Annoyingly, I can't sdn from my phone. It says "error connecting". That's helpful, isn't it.

• grrrr *

[ThomasZloch]

I'll tell you how it works from my new 3GS, should I ever receive it (t-mobile hotline: "supply < demand!"). Of course they have switched me to the new (more expensive) calling plan already.

Thomas

[faisal_altaf2]

Sir,

Please Check [Opera Mini|http://www.opera.com/mini/]

Hope this will work for SDN

Thanks and Regards,

Faisal

[amit_khare]

I can SDN from my phone. Its a windows OS and IE is there

PS - I know most of the SDNers don't like IE but in this case I believe- as the BASIC, as the BEST.

Good idea. I was after some other software and eventually found it as a generic Java Mobile app. - works beautifully. I must get out of the mindset of just searching for N97 software.

matt

[ThomasZloch]

I will hopefully receive my new 3GS by the end of this week. No, I will not start a discussion on which one is better

Cheers

Thomas

[stephenjohannes]

Thomas,

You will hopefully enjoy your 3GS iphone as much as I do. Not to start a phone war either, as there are plenty of nice smartphone models for everyone to enjoy.

However Nokia has become increasingly not relevant in the US mobile market. It could be that most carriers here, really only truly support the "low-end" nokia phones.

Take care,

Stephen
