        had the phone used it for four days, the keypad just screwed up, it has something to do with the top board of the keypad, its too thin,numbers become jumbled and will not function well.in terms of features i really liked everything but the physical set-up can't support the overwhelming software it has so overall, i rate the phone as...too bad it had to be in that body.

          well....i am going for a new phone by the end of this month and i am confused whether the 3230 is better or the 6260.
          do let me know frankly with no prejudice about either-especially tell me in terms of sound quality and applications which is better camera dosen't matter that much.

          pls hurry and let me know i would be going for one soon.
          thnx very much

            Sorry didn't know that :)I didn't know it's a software problem,i've read that this phone's hardware doesn't support stereo mp3.But if you say that upgrading makes the difference...my mistake :)

                        @Mihai, i beg to differ regarding the phone playin mp3 in mono only..the new upgraded version (v4.0526.2) plays mp3s in stereo..(though quality isnt THAT great)..and usin 3rd party mp3 apps will produce even better sounds..yup..

                          If somebody thinks my previous post was wrong or wicked then here are some further details...you do the math!


                          3230 Video camera recording details:

                          Sqcif(128x96)/night mode/mute: Bit Rate: 21kbps ; Frame Rate: 3.66fps

                          Sqcif(128x96)/night mode/with sound: Bit Rate: 28kbps ; Frame Rate: 3.63fps

                          Sqcif(128x96)/with sound: Bit Rate: 71kbps ; Frame Rate: 11.18fps

                          Sqcif(128x96)/mute: Bit Rate: 66kbps ; Frame Rate: 14.90fps

                          Qcif(176x144)/night mode/with sound: Bit Rate: 40kbps ; Frame Rate: 3.65fps

                          Qcif(176x144)/night mode/mute: Bit Rate: 36kbps ; Frame Rate: 3.68fps

                          Qcif(176x144)/mute: Bit Rate: 66kbps ; Frame Rate: 10.01fps

                          Qcif(176x144)/with sound: Bit Rate: 70kbps ; Frame Rate: 6.45fps

                          Note 1: I used the same light conditions and I recorded the same place in all modes.Time per videoclip approx. 30 sec. each.
                          Note 2: My Nokia 3230 was: V 3.0510.0 / 06-03-05 / RM 51 (I don't know if a software upgrade will improve the camera performances.Let me know,pls)
                          Note 3: This test was repeted twice with a slight difference between the Frame Rates (max. 0.50 difference)
                          Note 4: Remember: I'm not a proffessional tester!

                            The mp3 on this phone is dual mono so it doesn't matter if you're using another program because it cannot play stereo,only the Fm is stereo. :(

                              Hi,
                              To all guys who r searching for msvdriveE.sis u can logon to www.mobango.com and create a login of ur one and u will get it free or u can also try it on www.getjar.com.
                              Can any one suggest me which mp3 player for n3230 will have equalisers option for better music quality, otherwise the mp3 of n3230 is too bad even with 128kbps stereo sound.

                                in my opinion mpeg is better then 3gp,more clarity...About the ngage games,yes they can be played on 3230

                                  G r o w up it's just an opinion.I see you find yourself in my post about the phone since you're so upset ;)

                                  use msvDriveE(which was created for ngage but works on 3230 too) to save you messages to MMC.Give a Google search and if you don't find it tell me and I'll send it to you

                                        To Elyl ,
                                        Man, you have some serious problems!Why are you so upset?it's MY opinion so it doesn't have to be the same,no?Plus you don't know me therefore you DO NOT have any idea about having or not having money to buy myself another phone so KEEP YOUR MOUTH CLOSE,dude!Oh,and judging by your reaction to my opinion,it seems that you find yourself(/your phone)in my treat.And i stop here because this is not a battle ground.People are interested in phones,opinion about them etc.
                                        A piece of advice for you: GROW UP!

                                        Peace!
