bastigutz, 17 Mar 2010Dear Nuwan, Is it safe to update your firmware? Cause i... moreu can update firmware through mobile itself. press *#0000# then from option go to check for update. and install the update. i've done that yesterday and after update i've not find any problem yet.
i've tried to update through NSU using pc but after update my phone did not start at all and i'd to get replaced from Nokia Care. then i tried to update form mobile itself. there is update option on application menu but it did not work. then i tried this method using *#0000#. at first it says server error(something like that) but on second time it ask me to download the upload and it works fine. hope it will also help u.

    mina, 18 Mar 2010nuwan, which is the best antivirus for this fone? thanks! Dear mina,

    I only have tried Kaspersky Mobile Anti virus (version 8) and it works fine for me... I like it due to following matters.

    1) Though it has real time protection, it doesn't slow down the mobile
    2) Updates are regular and reliable
    3) Built in firewall available and you can customize the strength of the firewall
    4) Custom scan modes available (Full scan, memory scan etc..)
    5) Anti Spam - Black list/white list of contacts.. (You can either block or allow calls)
    6) Stealth SMS facility (if you lost your mobile, it can be locked and you can delete all your private data using a simple SMS)
    7) SMS watch, SMS block, Parental control etc...

    If you find above facts are reasonable enough, then you can go for Kaspersky mobile Anti Virus... (I have to admit that it's bit expensive for me... So I'm not using a paid version... I downloaded a cracked one from www.gsmarena.com and it works just fine...)

      Ruben, 18 Mar 2010Can anyone tell me if i can change the ear phone contained ... moreDear Ruben,

      Though I haven't tried it, I think it will support... (The headset coming with N97 or Nokia 5630 Xpress Mesic should work with this handset too...)

      However I can't confirm this as I haven't really tried it.. Anyone who've tried it, please tell us whether it's compatible or not...

          Can anyone tell me if i can change the ear phone contained in the nokia 5530 box (in pack) with the one having the next, previous, etc. function. Because the box contains simple ear phone and i want to change it. I love music so it is a must have facility for me. Will it be compatiable.
          Pls reply...

              Connect your mobile to the computer through the Data cable and use Nokia OVI application installer in order to install/uninstall applications... (It'll take time to load all the list of applications in your mobile.. If there are many..) Be patient and then you can uninstall what you want to remove...

              One more way though... You can go to the menu and where ever the unnecessary application shortcut is located... And click 'options' and select 'Organize'. Now select the one you want to uninstall and click again 'options' then select 'remove'.

              That's easier than to use the default application uninstaller... But in that way you can't remove applications which are not in the menu... (such as plugins, themes etc..) In order to remove those you should use OVI installer...

              Good luck brother...

                jihanna, 18 Mar 2010hi!since this is a 2g phone,does this phone can have a yaho... moreDear jihanna,

                This mobile has 2G... Further more, it has EDGE that is 2.5 G to 2.75 G... (Though it doesn't have 3G, the data rates are very close between 2.75 G and 3G)
                Please refer following table.

                Basic GSM (2G) – 14.4Kbps
                GPRS (2.5G) - 48Kbps
                EDGE (2.75G) - 236Kbps [64Kbps upstream]
                UMTS (3G) - 384Kbps [64Kbps upstream]
                HSPA (3.5G/3G+) –- 14.4Mbps [5.8Mbps upstream]
                HSPA+ (3.5G/3G+) –- 42Mbps [22Mbps upstream]

                Source: http://www.ispreview.co.uk/broadband_mobile.php

                So anybody can see there's no such big difference between 2.75G (which we have as EDGE Class 32) and 3G..

                You will be able to connect with yahoo messenger and/or windows live messenger using Edge (2.5-2.75G) connection without any problem... Use the third party software (freeware) 'Nimbuzz' or 'Fring'... Using 'Fring' you can even make video calls via skype... (However, you can see the other person, but he/she can't see you...)

                However compared to 3.5G internet connectivity EDGE is way too slow.. But compared to 3G, it's very close...

                            lorinser, 17 Mar 2010hi. i need help my phone turns off when i answer a call ????Dear lorinser,

                            If this happens once in a while I think it's because you're still having the old firmware in your mobile... You'll have to update your firmware in this case...

                            If this happens always (or often) when you are answering a phone call... Then the problem should be with your battery contacts... I mean battery has been loosened and the contact between the battery and the phone's battery connectors might be not that good...

                            You can use small pieces of papers where ever you think loosening occurs.. And put some folded paper in between the battery and the battery cover... (Because battery cover in this mobile is bit loose...)

                            Hope this will help...

                              When using Sis Signer, you'll need 2 files which are particular to your mobile and your mobile only...

                              1) certificate file (Extension: *.cer)
                              2) Key file (Extension: *.key)

                              I'm pretty sure it won't ask a 'pass word' or something similar... I think you've misinterpreted this 'key' file as a 'pass word' file... Haven't you..?

                              Anyway, you will have to go to the following web site and register there...
                              http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_5530_xpressmusic-reviews-2832.php
                              And then you should upload your IMIE no to that web site and after 48 hours you can download your own Key file and certificate file...
                              You must do this procedure if you want your phone hacked...

                              Don't worry... It's not harmful because I've done it for several phones and not only me, thousands of people out there do this in order to hack their mobiles...
