After upgrading to V31 i found that GPS is not working properly. It cant connect to satellites immediately. It takes 10 min to lock the signal and when i move i loose signal even i stand below open sky. GPS works like charm in the V30. Does anyone face the same problem.

it asks when u connect the phone with the cable .. it will detect it automatically .. then when u try to copy the video .. it will ask and if u select tht option it will convert and paste .. but not recommended for big files ..as u need to keep the fone connected to the pc.. maybe u can use the settings .. of the converted file and use those with other wmv convertor..

Try ultra mobile 3gp video convertor, it has got the phones native resolution and it allows you to convert your video to mp4 superb quality + you can change the audio quality, the codec etc. This is the best convertor because i convert movies for watching the quality is super sharp and clear at full resolution.

@rakeshinx
It is not the convertor of win 7. It is of the pc suite which is installed.

I hacked mine in ~60 seconds flat, using HelloOX2. No problems.

And for v31 its not available for me too yet. You have to change the product code of your phone to get it.

im assuming the main purpose of this is to install unsigned apps. any other advantages apart from the same ?

@ All : im still looking out for a no frills solution to video conversion. Earlier I was able to download youtube vids directly in .mp4 format and run them on the phone but now even though the vids from youtube are downloadable in mp4 format they dont seem to be running directly :mad:

Hacking mobile is not only for installing unsigned apps, it will open the door to a lot of customization and modding. for example, please check the below cool theme effects on S60v5. This will be done only after hacking the mobile.
