    PP007, 14 Dec 2010Hi all, After doing a bit of research I hv decided to bu... moreGuys use this link for getting detail on c6 custom firmware n also to get the files.n also guide for flashing. http://pnht.org/?p=446
    Thanks for ur support, the sound of the mobile is good,just the headphone that comes in the package is not good enough for music.i brought a diffrent headphone and the sound is loud,bassful n warm enough now.there is no problem in making and recieving calls. I am using ucbrowser in my mobile and i can download a 450kb file in 25-35 seconds and i am using reliance network. Net speed is good in the mbl.you need to install opera seperately.

                  Most of the people are in big
                  mistake - Image acceleration
                  and 3D acceleration are
                  different things. 5800
                  has Image acceleration
                  (that's why it can take
                  VGA video @ 30 fps),
                  NOT 3D acceleration
                  (that's why it s**k in
                  gaming, compared to the OMAP
                  powered phones).

                      Download speed depends solely on the network provider. I was able to download 450kb file in about 30 seconds, but this speed is quiet rare for me. In normal conditions I guess that file may take about a minute or more.
                      This mobile has superb sound quality (i am not talking about loudspeaker). But you have to get yourself a better headphone. The default ones are just too bad.
                      I will give more details later.

So maybe this fact that you mentioned has slipped from my notice. Still i am very much sure that the graphics engine of 5800 and 5233 is the same. I played this game which i found somewhat laggy. Although not as much as nfs shift.
                            Hey, side and utk, have you encountered this issue. Am i wrong about the graphics engine being the same.
                            Anyways, have you got the 5mb version of Ferrari gt evolution hd for s60v5.

                                      Hi all,

                                      After doing a bit of research I hv decided to buy this phone. Although I will buy this phone in a couple of months but i thought joining this forum from now would increase my knowledge and save my efforts later. and i am following this from atleast a month.

                                      but I hav sum questions

                                      1) Is Opera Inbuilt in it? & wht is the general speed of the default browser. say how much time it wud take to download a 450 kb ringtone.

                                      2)i saw a long discussion abt bad sound quality. i just want to ask is, is it bad for taking/making calls as well.?

                                      more queries will follow later

                                      SB/utk/overseer/ and to many more.....

                                      u are doing a gr8 effort to enlighten our knowldge abt this phone.....

                                      but pls dont forgt to answer my question

And compare with u i am a noob. But what i say u reply its true. I realy check it. If u dont believe then dwnld 'Asphalt 4' racing game which belongs to 5800,n97. Many games which run smothly on 5800 don't run smothly on it. And i dwnld 'Space impact'(8mb) which is os9.4 belongs to n97. My 5233 couldn't open this...!!! And if u browse nokia.com then see 5800's specification. 5800 has 3D Image ingine which is not in our mobile. But its true our 5233 can support all os9.4's softs. Afterall its a gud phn in campare with money. I am hapy to have it. Bcz its a great phone in my ability.
