cyber-shot under dog, 28 Apr 2010YEAH! man ahahah nice another audiophile. . senheisers are ... moreDear cyber-shot under dog,

Thank you very much brother... I think I would buy one of those you've mentioned... If I ask you what would be best suited for me among those two considering my requirements below.. Could you please tell me which one I should go for..?

1) I listen to all kind of music but Hip-hop, R&B would be my best choices... So I need to feel considerable amount of bass in my ear.. Not over powered bass but just as the song delivers it...

2) I like alternative rock too, (blue, techno too) so I think middle range and trebles also should be there fair enough... Stereo cross talk is something I really appreciate...

3) Look of a headset is not that important to me, but it must go in to my ear so that it'll seal the environment sounds disturbing my experience... And I don't like too much long wires around my neck and all...! So shorter cable is preferred... And BLACK color is the only color I want..

I personally think I should go for mdr-e12LP but I don't know whether it suits for my Audio quality requirements... Please comments on this matter... Thanks...

Yes.. You're correct.. That software can do the locking, unlocking without making you to use the unlock key... But there are so many options and customizations and you should be able to be patient to discover them all and get exactly what you want..

And I strongly suggest you to read the user comments under the download before you're going to install it.. If most of them are OK, then you can proceed with the installation..

I used that software for two three weeks but now not that interested due to several reasons... Eating lots of RAM is one of them...

Jett, 28 Apr 2010oh! is that so.. so i really need to do it before i bring m... moreDear Jett,

For your first questions I've already answered for someone else.. I think it'll be enough...

And yeah... You're talking about 'Escalado photo viewer' right....? That's cool but takes a long time to make the photo cache... If you've got thousands of images, then it'll take like 15-30 minutes to make all of them in to it's cache... However after that, everything is fine..

But I don't personally think that application is greater than 'Resco Photo viewer'...! Resco is a complete package which also including few photo editing options... Zooming is excellent in Resco compared to Escalado...

And if you've tried 'Nokia Photo Browser' then that's the coolest photo browser for me... It doesn't require a hacked phone so even now you can download and try that from Nokia beta labs... It also has a very cool zooming feature.. When you press and hold a spot of the picture it'll zoom and it's really cool...!

Every software you mentioned are great... I've got all of them installed in my mobile.. You can find everything from www.dotsis.com...

So far I couldn't find a voice changer application... There should be one.. But I couldn't find...

xplit, 28 Apr 2010can anyone confirm this? after firmware update, its phone m... moreDear xplit,

It's really strange why your phone memory has been so dynamic...! Because it's not so... May be you're transferring some bluetooth files in to your mobile and you may have deleted the bluetooth files from inbox after saving them to the memory card... As default inbox is situated in phone memory, when you delete messages you'll gain a free space.. Specially when you delete Bluetooth messages which are often larger, then that free space will be significant... I think that's what has happened... (Or may be you've cleared the internet cache from the browser or something..)

Hei.. I'm telling you... Those software updates which can be downloaded from Nokia... They directly will be installed to the phone memory without asking where to install.. (I also am so angry with Nokia for this..) There are updates that should be installed in phone memory (like python runtime or flash) but OVI store or OVI maps... Or even mail for exchange.. Nobody whats them in phone memory as they eat lot of space...

So you're correct... My suggestion is, if you really don't intend to use those, don't get those updates.. Flash, python runtime are really essential so you may get those.. (I didn't install mail for exchange for an example... Because I don't use it..)

And it's true.. OVI store separate installation ate lots of space and when we update the firmware, it was there and we've got more free memory...!

I'm glad to hear you liked digia web... But Opera mobile also should work fine...

Anonymous, 27 Apr 2010Brother, I've read your comment to jett regarding hacking.... moreDear Anonymous friend,

No brother... Once you update your firmware 'hacking' will be gone.. But there is a great chance the software you installed will be still preserved... That's why I'm telling you, before you update the firmware install the essential software which requires hacking... Otherwise you'll regret...

For your second question.. Yeah... I've already tried 360ting player and I've already commented about it a long ago in this GSMarena... It's indeed a great player and now it has become my favorite...

Pros:
** 10 band equalizer (with amazing frequency response)
** i-phone like very nice kinetic optimized interface
** Automated artist photo, lyrics download
** So many audio effects
** Bass, loudness, stereo improvements
** Very very stable (very rarely crashes...)
** Home screen mini player which can be dragged and moved..

Cons:
** It's still in beta stage so there may be bugs.
** Eats a huge amount of RAM... That means you must have at least 20 MB free RAM memory for this one... And if you do multi tasking a lot, there's a tendency to restart the phone too..
** Due to the use of high amount of RAM, the battery drains so fast... (Eg: If I can listen to 5 hours of Music using default Music player, from that battery I can listen only 2 or 3 hours using 360ting player...!)
** Skin is not very customizable as TTpod
** Automated artist photo and lyrics downloads are not accurate... Often there are mistakes...
** Home screen Mini Player has stability problems and less functionality

However overall I like this player due to it's excellent frequency response and i-phone Music player like interface... May be with the final version, this will become a fantastic player... But even for now, I'm totally happy with this one..

But your phone MUST BE HACKED in order to install this player... Signing will not be helpful because I tried in my 5800 and didn't work... (can be installed But doesn't open...)

I brought this phone on the 20/11/09.
work good for 1 month them started to give problems, 1st problem the volume drop, 2nd freeze up alot of the time especially after installing apps/SW,3rd always have to reset time and date when the phone have been turn off,(not the removal of the battery), 4th shut down when receiving and making calls, 5th camera would freeze up sometimes.6th weak WIFI receiver, 7th weak vibration when calls coming in.. such a very BIG disappointing attempt, I guess when they cut back on the feature of the 5800, they also cut back on quality and performance on the 5530, SUCH A WASTE 5THUMBS DOWN....

software included:very poor.
Other nokia less expensive phones have best software (agenda, alarm and so on).
Very bad connectivity to the mobile network, very poor the sound quality. Good the wireless.
Buy another phone.

dear guys.. im using 5530 for the last 4 months.. it gives a difrent experience from the ordinary express music phones.. i think this is the first phone with plug in earphones.. it gives avesome clarity.. camera in night mode does not give that much clarity.. bcz led flash is used in it.. a silly comfortableness i found is that their is no option for mark several.. for marking more than one item randomly for all time we shud take options and do marking..
