I just bought this phone off craigslist and I LOVE IT. I checked to see what firmware I have and it says -20.1.014- Now, is it nessesary to dl the new firmware? Or could I just wait til the new one comes out? I've read that the latest fw (30) is not a big upgrade. Also, what are the settings for OTA upgrade? I like in the U.S and am with T MOBILE. Thanks in advance.

    I haevn't had a Nokia for years but so glad I switched back! I love this phone! I thought I'd have a problem texting as I have long nails but it's absolutely fine. Just one thing, I don't seem to be able to find a usb cable to connect to the computer, is there suppose to be one with it?

      I primarily bought this phone for the fact it offered a 3.5mm earphone jack but was quite taken by a lot of its other features. However the one thing i find more than a bit disappointing is that i have to exit the music player if i want to read a txt i might receive while training and listening to my music. I had a sony 800i and it is able to minimize the music player and launch the texting mode. Or maybe there is something about this phone that i am overlooking? Also buyers beware, i thought i was buying 'the whole packet' when making my purchase, but found out too late that the operater im with doesnt include the 'tv out' cable or the 'small tv stand'. My operater in Ireland is o2

        5800XM, 04 Aug 2009The latest update V30 is not available on NSU. When I try t... moreIf you could spare some money, why not use the Internet of your Service Provider or your Network.
        I'm sure you have 3G or a faster connection in your location. The update is only 4.4MB.

        If you still cant connect, try configuring your Operator Setting..
        GO to Apps>Welcome>Sett. wiz.>Operator>Start..
        It will configure your Networks Internet and MMS Settings..

        Hope I have helped..
        Good luck!

                  this kind of an embarassing question but becoz i just bought mine 2 days ago and because of my poor eyesight and astigmatism i would like to ask if the signal & battery bars have 6 or 7 bars maximum? my eyes can't really decipher and my old phone was an s40 therefore the bars have different systems..

                            i have bought one, and i thought that its camera from the specs is good , but it is very bad camera , and i have tried both the made in in china and made in hungary versions , it appears for me that the middle east version has bad camera, because i wasn't able to find in made in finland one , and nobody seems to complain from the camera like me ..but anything else in this phone is wonderful ....

                              i think that leaving it plugged in to a charger overnight really affects the overall performance of the battery.. try draining it all the way until the last drop then charge it for 8 hours

                                then you are stupid for spending money on a crappy phone. you are so stupid that you didn't even bother to check this phone's specs and reviews before getting it? such stupidity is unforgivable..

                                  my battery didn't last a day.. i charge it at night and unplug it after i woke up.. DOES THAT AFFECT IT'S BATTERY PERFORMANCE?? but it's not working.. i listen to music for like 6 hours and then it started to drain some batteries..after it drained one bar.. i try not to listen or do something with it.. i just put it on my pocket and it's done! after like 2 hours or so.. i saw my battery level drop to 5 bars and that's kinda annoying! i 'm not using it and yet it's draining my battery without me knowing it! it's just a month for me now! help me guys! and hey.. is there no V30 yet here in the PHILIPPINES?? thanks!

                                        i love this phone. i got it about 2 months ago.
                                        i am absoulutely crazy about the phone.
                                        unfortunately my mem card was corrupted because i took the mem card out without putting the phone off.
                                        so, remember if you buy this phone, put it off before you take the mem card out!!!!!!!!!!!!!
                                        thank you, have a lovely day!!!!!!!!!!
