[GenetiCDisasteR]

i got the red one and yeah im regretting it kinda... the brownish tint that it has when under sunlight, it is just gay. not cool at all. i wish i'd have gone with the blue one atleast.

beware buyers, don't go for the red one, its got a really ugly color...

Nopes... nothing like that here... pressing the volume key while music player is playing mp3s and running in the background... just increases and decreases the volume...

Yeah.. it's present in my Sony ericsson walkman phone... hyeah:

Short key press will increase/decrease the volume.. how about long key press(press and hold for a few seconds) ??

nope it is simply a volume rocker, no next previous track sorry. it can control volume any time though...

Hey , here is one link from Ebay

http://cgi.ebay.in/NOKIA-5800-XPRESS-music-with-WARRANTY-BILL-AND-ACCSRS_W0QQitemZ220353410192QQcmdZViewItemQQptZIN_Mobile_Phones?hash=item220353410192&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A1|65%3A1|39%3A1|240%3A1318

The brand new 5800 is listed for 18k.

By using a 5% voucher I can still reduce it to 17100 Rs :cool2:

Also FREE shipping..

Too good to believe and the the seller seems to be having no feedback or rating.... I am suspicious

Any suggestions ?

IF u r doing payment thought paisapay then there is no need to worry even I had found a deal on 5800 on ebaY for 16,500 bucks shipped but the guy was not accepting paisa pay.

How do I check what maps are installed on my phone?

2 tips for 5800 users, i found them out recently. Many might already be knowing these, but what the heck.

1. Flipping the phone on to the touchscreen side face down when you receive a call,automatically silences the call, no vibration also. Works even in Vibration mode.

2. The picture gallery works somewhat like the iPhone when it comes to going to the Next/Previous picture, by just finger flicking it in the appropriate direction.

3. Speeding up the phone TRICK :

Courtesy : DailyMobile.se

(Place the current date in the phone on the 01.05.2005.)

The first two tasks must be created. This is done with the following menu:

>Options

>New entry

>Task

Create the following two tasks in the following order:

1.Task

*Subject: Speed

* Due Date: 04.08.2005

*Priority: High

2.Task

*Subject: Qoukie

*Due Date: 04.08.2005

*Priority: Low

Confirm with OK both tasks.The calendar does not close before!

Choose now the task of view on the following menu:

*Options

*Task view

Set Speed first, followed by Qoukie menu is done:

*Options

*Done

Under this approach, you can close the calendar and the current date back correctly.

From now should speed the navigation menu significantly increase. Also, the gallery should now be a performance boost get.

After a reboot or reset the phone, the effect is lost.After the switch, everything has to be repeated

I tried this method, and it seemed to work. BUt dunno why i think i did not do it right as i cannot find any "Tasks" Option in my 5800. Only to-do notes/memos/anniversaries/meetings . If anyone else knows how to get it done, do post here.
