k then first try to update your firmware cause this update really had a lot to do with Flashlite & if you know the Technicality of it then you must be knowing that Entire Youtube works on FLASH. So this update is definitely a must for you cause its gonna fix a lot of bugs related to Flash Streaming & Flash Buffer Rate.

Secondly if you want then before updating the Firmware try using a browser like OPERA for YT n see whats the result.

One more aspect is that many service providers do give an unlimited Internet Service but they deliberately disallow online video streaming services for obvious reasons. So check that out with your customer care.

Lemme Know.

          @emir.well,yeah it is certainly fast here too.anyhow,then maybe you're using the unlimited internet thats why it cant play,just like me when using the unlimited internet.about the direct play from page,im not sure,usually i click watch video,then it will initiate connecting then loading,after few second,the video will start.(:

            Hey Dude, what are you upto with this Youtube thing for so long now. Did you update your FIRMWARE to the latest v12 because it contains a HUGE update to the FLASHLITE Feature. The Update consists of Flashlite 3.1, Python 2.0 & JAVA MIDP Plus a FIX to a lot of other Bugs here n there.

            Also do tell me how exactly are you using Youtube on ur Phone.

                @emir.first of all,i have two simcards,one with unlimited internet and the other one is not.i had succesfully stream videos from youtube using internet connection(not WAP) and my internet is limited.but when i use the unlimited internet simcard,which only has WAP connection,it says unable to connect.so in my opinion,try using the limited internet,or INTERNET connection rather than WAP,hope it works.

                    You won't find the setup of files downloaded from ovi. Nokia did this so as to prevent the users from distributing it. And when you format your memory card and not your phone memory, you will have problem downloading previously downloaded apps/files from ovi. I always save/archive setups so i avoid ovi.

                      skynet, 06 Mar 2010what is 64 Bit sim ?@Skynet

                      Well a 64K / 64bit SIM is a kind of Technological Advancement in the world of Sim Cards. What they are basically trying to do is Combine all the Network Options into one (All in One soughts) ie in todays Mobile world you need a SIM thats capable of supporting GSM + WCDMA + 3G + EDGE + GPRS so thats something that they are trying to achieve. It doesnt necessarily mean that you will get a very STRONG Signal though (still work under construction). In India this whole thing is in a very nascent, TRIAL Phase.

                      MOST Importantly the REASON for this kind of SIM in INDIA right now is availing the 3G services. Because Obviously theres absolutely no way to get a 3G service on Older or 32K SIMs. So you can even call it a 3G Sim.

                      What you will benefit as an end user:
                      -- More Space & More Fields (email, notes, picture etc) to save on the SIM itself.

                      -- ROAM accross the world on any network (GSM or WCDMA) including 3G ROAMING as long as your Service provider has a contract.

                      --It will COST the same as OLDER Sims but with higher Capabilities.

                      The Problem is that in India the latest 64K Sims are having certain incompatibilities with TOUCHSCREEN Mobiles.

                      The BEST Example for a 64K Sim would be iPhone & AT&T Sims.

                      Hope You All Get the Picture. Get iNformed & Be Informed so that you dont say something that someone from other Country will laugh at & make FUN of our Country.

                      Surya Singh.

                                Atleast are you able to see the installation Files in ur Mobile in Application Manager-->Installation Files. Because there are Ovi Apps that only allow a Single Installation ie they get self deleted once the installation is done. On the other hand if the Apps are still there on your Memory Card you still wouldnt be able to see them or search using your computer because the file names are coded using numbers n alphabets. You can try your luck searching for the files using the *.sis & *.sisx naming convention on ur PC OR try sending the Installation files to ur PC over bluetooth [if thats allowed] let me know about it.

                                    Dude Obviously there is NO Software in your Phone (Nokia 5230 - I believe) that can open a .conf file. I dont know whether the Internal Nokia Notes is capable of doing that or not even if it does then locating the sms using the file manager will be like SIR mein DARD or (DIMAAG mein SHOT) as Kids nowadays like to call it.

                                    SO connect ur phone to ur PC & either send the .conf file to your Computer using bluetooth or use Nokia PC Suite to open the message on your PC & get the .conf file in ur computer. Once you get the file on ur PC just try opening in with NotePad...... Thats it n Your DONe :)

                                    (But Airtel 64 Bit SIM ...... Sounds PROBLEM to me)

                                      Developers have LONG GONE Done the JOB ..... Now its your JOB to SEarch for it in the Right Place.... Hai na??

                                      You are not expecting the Developer to come to your place & Personally Install your Virtual Dpad in your Phone .....Na??

                                      Dont take it in the WRONG Way I might sound RUDE or HARSH. Simply Understand :) Everything that you can think of for your 5230 has been taken care of because Nokia 5800 has been there for more than 15 months NoW & We Developers have developed everything possible for 5800 & OBVIOUSLY for OBVIOUS Reasons all of that will work on 5230/5233/5325 etc....etc... SO!!!!!
