Guillo, 31 Oct 2008other thin, does any one knows how to aplly images as full ... moreI'm sorry.. but there is no way to apply an image as a full screen wallpaper on a series 60 3rd edition device. Its really a major thing that should be dealt with. Like you said... whatever you do, the top and bottom parts of the screen will not be covered.

The only way around this is to make your own theme. Select your own picture as the background, tweak other areas to your liking and you're done. The S60 Carbide UI is complex to use... but does everything. Download it from:

Otherwise try www.zedge.net & www.ownskin.com to quickly create themes using your own wallpaper.

                                No, there are no problems with the display after upgrading to v5.11. Color, contrast, brightness are all fine. No dead pixels. No incompatibility issue with any J2ME or Symbian software.


                                AMARJEET:
                                Yes, you will be able to use the phone in normal networks in the US if you've got roaming. However, you wont get 3G services because the US implements a different frequency.

                                        For all of you who want to upgrade to v5.11:

                                        I just updated from v3.27 directly to v5.11 with Phoenix Suite. In comparison to any other FW version, v5.11 is the best.

                                        1) Its extremely stable. I have had no unwanted restarts since I upgraded (which is about 4 days ago). Thats a big step ahead from v3.27 where the phone would just restart in the middle of anything unexpectedly. On restart, if you call anyone or anyone calls you, the phone mic didnt work. I mean that even if you were screaming on top of your voice, the other person couldnt hear a thing. The only solution to this was to restart the phone manually. But this annoying problem has been fixed in v5.11.

                                        2) In v3.27, the "Last Call Duration" in "Log" would always show 00:00 or 00:01 even if you're last call was like 2 hours long. v5.11 now gives the correct information.

                                        3) When talking on the phone for long periods of time, say more than 10min, the phone would get unbelievably hot. This also happened when the phone was used as a modem to your PC. in v5.11 the phone doesnt do this and it just gets warm enough how it should.

                                        4) in 5.11, sound quality has improved a bit through loudspeakers and earphones. Sound distortion has definitely decreased, and its more comfortable to listen to music for longer periods.

                                        Its definitely worth upgrading to v5.11 without any doubt. If you havent done so already, DO IT NOW! Its easy. Do it with Phoenix. DOTSIS LINK:
