beat, 16 May 2010i m waiting 4 ur answer , i m asking my ? again 1- can... moreOh sorry mate.. Been busy all day.
Well by default there is no option to turn off the camera sound. But there are applications available that can do so.
Yes you can install sis as well as sisx apps. To be more specific, it supports most s60v3 and v5 apps. It can also install .wgz or widgets.
Camera menu is in menu->applications. It can be rearranged any way you want. And also pressing the camera button automatically switches on the camera.

              @marieta yeah the audio is very low even you increase volume to maximum. 5310 xpress music is better option for music lovers

                Hi friends, this is a wonderful phone. I want to know about some issues. Date and time is always reset whenever I remove the battery for a while. Everytime I have to correct the time and date. Any help?
                Moreover, I want some applications to be installed on my phone, like some call-blocker or sms-blocker application. Can any one tell me from where to download it and how to install it? Do I need a zip-manager also?
                Thanx

                            A smartphone is a term used to describe a category of mobile devices with computer-like functionality. These devices support complete operating system and have a platform for application developers.

                            and raj, let me remind you that nokia 5233 is not A-GPS enabled. meaning you need to use GPRS/EDGE connection to use your GPS. so for this, NOKIA 5230 is better.

                            and about the internet, i think 5230 is still better since it is 3G-enabled. and consequently, it has HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) with a maximum speed of 3.6 MBPS. so for this matter, NOKIA 5230 is still better.

                            hope i helped mate. :)
