Maybe this thread is the best place to ask. Where can I find a good replacement housing for an N95 8GB? Already tried the one on dealextreme... a waste of 4 bux. It seems Nokia does not sell one. The plethora on eBay is difficult to choose from. Maybe an aftermarket housing is a waste of time?

I had a blackberry that would exhibit similar random reboot behaviour when it was subjected to being moved from a hot and humid environment to cold air conditioned environment frequently. It stopped happening after the battery was replaced. I would suggest opening the back of the E71 and see if there is any corrosion or damage, maybe bending, of the battery contacts. Since it happens when on AC I'm stumped.

The cameras on symbian phones are awesome. Check out this photo taken with an E72. What other platform sports a camera anywhere as good? The new aye fone?

Doesn't the E72 have a significantly better camera then the E71? Here's a flickr album that has more decent images taken with the E72

nerdz posted:Goddamn, Is there any way to access your Ovi Files without having to install the stupid files connector app in every PC you use? That's probably the most stupid design decision I've seen nokia make after the NGage. I sent some pictures to my Ovi account from my phone, and decided to open them from my linux pc at work, and I can't access them without installing the app. You could just browse for the images in mass storage mode. There should be an "images" directory on your SD card or phone memory. No need to use OVI suite really.

The samsung Galaxy S pro looks like a good phone to jump ship to. Their Omnia i8910 HD support was neglectful at best thus the fact that the Galaxy S is open to rooting, even already has cyanogen ROMs, is a good sign.

Anyone have experience with Nokia's repair service? I can only find horror stories on the various Nokia and Symbian sites out there. According to Nokia's website the turnaround time is 5-7 days but everywhere I look it is weeks to months.

If only Nokia would condense their smart phone line a little... perhaps Nokia's resources are spread too thin. Or their management's capabilities are not adequate.

HUMAN FISH posted:What's the point of having a smartphone without a data plan? Is there like a 100% free WLAN where you live? Just curious. Well, in my situation wifi is freely available everywhere except in a moving car. That's where the unassisted GPS comes in. Why pay for costly data plans? I would get a garmin or something before doing that.

I have an N97 that gains scratches when wiped clean with dilute rubbing alcohol and microfiber. Very unfortunate since the touch screen needs cleaning regularly. Sounds like Nokia used the same material on the 6700!

Are you experiencing issues with wifi? I have a WRT54G with Tomato. Occasionally the wifi craps out on my N8. The workaround is to manually disconnect and reconnect the wifi.

I noticed that wifi is much more stable and holds a connection. Before the update the connection would hang frequently.

LiquidRain posted:Installing QT SDK/etc? Yup, all failed. As did reinstalling 1.1 using Ovi Suite or Software Updater to do a total reflash, resetting the phone. Yup, it needs to go back to Nokia for repair. A friend in the USA will need to help you with this one. Before you do that though call 1-866-596-6542 (Nokia USA) and have the rep verify your warranty and send a UPS label to your contact in the USA.

It's nice to see that the N9 has an offline GPS with navigation. It's the one thing that differentiates Nokia phones from iOS and Android devices that rely on assisted GPS.

JSW2 posted:I don't know if you all have seen this yet, but there was a video made of what is supposedly a beta version of Symbian Belle, which, honestly, looks really nice. It's a shame that this wasn't the version of S^3 that originally shipped; it probably could have seriously competed with iOS and the rest. I know that I'd be using my N8 a hell of a lot more if this was on it. Nokia should skip straight to belle for the next PR update. When is anna supposed to become available anyway? This month right? edit: Just read on another forum that supposedly there is a 50% chance that belle is released instead of anna this month.

Nokia has made it clear several times exactly where its priorities lie with regards to north america. So a september time frame is more realistic. Makes installing belle all the more attractive. Only issue is whether or not doing so is reversible...
