I think all have to Upgrade the Firmware, so as to Keep the phone not Hanging. My Phone's Firmware Version is 20.0.08, Think so, i didnt had any hanging problem at all. The Phone Really Worked Very Fastly , and the Touch Responsive is Amazing , just like capacitive.
But sad thing is my phone's Camera key Got damaged, lock jey got damaged and battery life was very Poor! So Gave it back to Nokia Priority people for Exchanging for New Piece and Now Waiting For Their Response whether i will get new Piece or will get the handset repaired!!!

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970Dear all my friends in GSMarena,
Please note that there is someone else who uses my name (Nuwan) here... This is just for you to know that my posts will always come with the three words 'tev' at the bottom of the post.. I think that indicates something particular to my IP address... As I'm always using the same IP and I don't use anonymous IP software/web sites to surf internet, always my posts will be with these three words... 'tev'
Please look for these three letters too... I don't want you to be mislead by someone else who uses the same name as I am...
He often use the sentence 'God bless you' which I've never used in my life, and his posts are too short and can be identified easily if you look at them carefully...
(Special thanks goes to my brother 'Nafis' here...)

lllllllllll, 19 Mar 2010hey nuwan bro!!!
whts up?? how u doing... moreDear lllllllllll,
I'm sorry for the trouble brother... I can see how much you're frustrated...
Actually with the previous firmware versions (Previous Firmware version means any firmware which is lower than the latest one that is 20.0.80 if I remember it correctly...) the things you've described could happen... I used this mobile only for several days with the old firmware and it always hanged and automatically restarted during that time... (May be twice a day it happened...) In your case, you only faced it twice a month, that's because you're not a hard core user of the mobile.. You only use the mobile for listening music and watching videos except for calling and SMSing... But I did so many things so my mobile hanged often.. Then I installed newest firmware and now it's working fine for several months... So far so great... (Not to mention that I'm a hard core Music listener and I do so many experimental software installations risking everything and so far phone is working like a charm...!)
So as far as I can think, the problem is with the old firmware you have in your mobile... You better update the firmware as soon as possible...
(When this mobile switched off, sometimes all the recent data get deleted... Though it's weird, it happens sometimes because we sometimes have to remove the battery in order to make it start...) Sometimes it keeps the memory but sometimes it looses all the recent data.. (I don't think it has anything to do with firmware)
Your second paragraph is not really clear for me... Can you please describe it bit clearer...? You've asked 'y the way why do we need to upload softwares ??' but I didn't get what you meant... Do you mean why do we need to install applications...? Right..? If it's that what you meant then this is my very simple answer... "By installing 3rd party software, we can achieve numerous things and you'll not even believe how many things can be done using this small device... It'll be very like your Computer after you've installed software in it.."
Please have a look at below list of applications... And you decide whether they are not useful or useful...
Here is a MUST HAVE application list for Nokia 5530 Xpress Music.
1) Google Maps (Just like Google earth on your PC)
2) Y-Browser (File manager software, but way better than the default one... You can go in to hidden system files too)
3) PowerMP3 (Good Music player)
4) Resco Photo Viewer (Photo browsing, Photo editing software like ACDSee in your PC)
5) Photo browser (Photo browsing software with a very cool 3D like interface)
6) Quickoffice (Can Open, edit Office documents like Word, excel & power point.. Even Microsoft Office 2007 files can be edited using the new version of quickoffice mobile.)
7) Adobe PDF reader
8) Paint pad (Picture drawing tool)
9) Opera mobile (Very good web browser)
10) Youtube (You can view even high quality youtube videos directly from this software without any problem.)
11) Fring (VOIP calls, Video chat via Skype, Facebook, yahoo messenger, google talk etc chatting...)
12) Bright light (Use your mobile as a torch)
13) PhoNetinfo (Gives the System information of your mobile)
14) Kaspersky Anti Virus (Protect your mobile from virus, Spams etc.. Block unwanted calls, firewall also available)
15) JbakTaskman (Very good task manager like software)
16) RAMBlow (Memory cleanup tool)
17) Free i-SMS (Threaded SMS view just like in Apple i-phone)
18) SymSMB (You can connect to any network via Wifi and you can share a folder in your mobile as well..)
19) VMenu (Menu view just like in Apple i-Phone with kinetic scrolling..)
And much much more... (There are hundreds of them...) You will come to know if you really need your mobile to be a small wonder...! (Which will give your friends huge surprises...!)
If you want to see screen shots of above applications please click below links (which will direct you to my facebook account photo albums..) and you'll be surprised...! (And I bet you'll not leave me alone... I want this... and I want that etc...!)

OK.. as I said before you better thank the phone because it has worked fine for 1 month with the old firmware... (It's really strange why...) May be because you're not pushing the mobile to hard works as rest of us do... Whatever it is, I can definitely say, listening music or watching videos is not the cause for your trouble... It's the old firmware... Update your firmware and everything will be fine...
Good luck brother...

ss, 19 Mar 2010Hi,
i am planning to buy a new phone... and my choices are... moreDear ss,
Nokia 5530 has speaker phone facility... Who told you it doesn't....?
It's up to you to decide whether to go for 5800 or for 5530 because it's totally depending upon your preference...
5800 is more feature rich but 5530 more stylish...
Go for what is more important to you...

Tell your friend (who's sick and tired regarding often hangings...) to update the firmware of his mobile... Then everything will be just fine...
Now I'm using this mobile for few months with the latest firmware, and it very rarely hangs.. That also due to my own experimental software installations etc... very reliable phone... I love the experience with this so far... and have no idea of replacing it to a new one sooner... However this is my personal opinion... You better wait for bad comments too...

Hello everyone-my relative recently got ths phone-and he says that the phone hangs a lot, keeps ringing even after the caller has disconnected and in short has a lot of problems to the extent of which he's considering selling the phone.
I liked 5530 a lot in the very first look and am considering buying it.
could u please tell me if you guys have been having any problems with the model? or if u have heard anything?
Thanks a lot! :)
