Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!

Thanks Hanzy.. Hopefully this would be fixed in their next firmware release. Not sure whether I'd be happy turning the accelerometer feature off. Just want to see that the display does not auto rotate even at the slightest jerk/bump which seems to be happening now.

+1 , but then ive mentioned in my review that i turned it off since i dont like it....the accelerometer is very sensitive.....but im not bothered and nor should u be bothered ..cause thats a KNOWN thing to Nokia and is as a upcoming fix in their next firmware release :) ......go thru my review thread all the replies and u will find a link there posted by someone for the list of fix's or just google :) ....turn it off and njoy.......but wait let me tell u , turning it off only disables the switching between landscape and portrait every now and then , in games i can still use it :D...but yes again very sensitive there....lets be patient and wait for the SP1 on this S60 :D

hmm... read about it on other forums too... it seems like you are right... whats the use of the phone if one is not able to make a call with constant sound for even 3-4 mins :|

lets face it...a huge chunk of the shipment must have come to India by now....some are expected to be V11 while some are expected to be V10.......I just spoke to someone 2 mins back and the call dint go in and out....although in the immediate next call it happened again....its like the person constantly fades away and then pulls back in to the normal ....u can maintain a conversation , its not that u cant hear the person all-together.......its all over the place..this is NOT a firmware problem cause people with V11 are having the same issue as well......and i really dont think nokia india people would have a fix / expertise to fix the issue...the last thing u would want is to have your new phone and make your first call from the showroom to ur loved one and have this fade winamp like plugin :lol: although the issue in my phone started almost 10 days later....im more of a handsfree and sms person so it really doesnt bug me.....although its good to know Nokia UAE has a fix for this and already has fixed the issue (got it from the other showroom)...and it feels more good to know that it goes today and comes back in a week...so im cool with it...........so a word of caution...all phones havent been affected but then u never know when the issue might crop up OR u might be 'THE ONE' :bleh:

Edit : :lol: this now gives me a chance to review the N78 :lol:
 
Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!

Well nokia personal will have to give a replacement/ or repair the sets for the problem once a proper solution is out. So as such i have no problem.

Great news, They are here at last ....!!! I got a call from my NPD to come and collect the two pieces I pre-booked. Unfortunately the payment receipts are in my sisters hand bag and she is at office. I will be collecting them tomorrow.
