AnonD-24173, 29 Mar 2012Yeah I think u can understand the problem. And Windows phon... morebut wp 7 still miss some basic of smartphone this day... They can't use bluetooth file transfer, can't support external memory, not good in multitasking... Every os has their own weakness... Just wait belle fp 1 and fp 2... The man who kill symbian is their CEO elop with his burning platform notes...

    I downloaded this new update 10 days ago & my Nokia Lumia 800 battery life got much more worst & shorter, only on standby without even using the phone it gave only 12 miserable hours !
    Until when Nokia will keep bluffing its customers ??!

      AnonD-24173, 29 Mar 2012Nope because of their own company's developers. You mean that Developers are not available ?
      or you suggest that they should be proactive to start pushing the releases without a business decision?

      dont get me wrong , i was trying to interpret what you intended to say

        I just hope that Nokia won't forget bringing updates for Lumia 710.. I know Lumia 800 is more important but Lumia 710 still needs the same fixes, especially for the poor battery.

                This battery-boosting is really helpful: discharge rate is now 80-90mA, used to be around 200mA.Good work on this! Another good fix is that headsets are now working perfectly. Thank you so much!

And its not Microsoft who is bringing all these updates to Nokia devices, its Nokia itself. And they say Symbian can handle almost everything , we can make any app run on Symbian devices and they cant even make their simple update run on my device..thats my point.

                        Its evident nokia manufacters two main stream mobiles ,with Symbian and Windows.

                        It was your choice to pick Symbian device.

                                this is something good, nokia finds a flaw and tries their best to make the device keep up and running
                                though i love apple products, but instead of saying "just go with it" they could have done something remarkable like this

Nokia updating their apps on WP7.. They say they have provided microsoft apps , and they have but they just doesn't work on my device. The battery life they tell is a lie my 701 cant even last a day. Only S^3 phones have been provided with a major update by uprading them to belle. The browser in 701 is just plain crap. Cant even browse properly. Check it out on youtube. Nokia maps was the only best thing on symbian and they ported it to WP7. I feel cheated.
