As for hacking, I always install my firmwares with phoenix. That is not a problem for me. I'm a pretty much Symbian geek:). I wanted to know more about the phones behavior rather then it's system:). But, what you've said was useful to, making me think there is no problem with the phone and i did a good purchase. Ok besides the wlan signal problem which i hope will be fixed very soon. Or they change the phone and give me a new one... Thank you again. Keep it up helping people. It is nice what you are doing.

              naved, 05 Jan 2013Dear Rather, will U help us regarding 701 pf2's problems... moreSure, but only if I know probem and I'll try my level best to help you, and I cant guarantee 100% help as nobody is perfect.
              I Think you are a bit confused.

              First of all its FP1 & FP2 (F=feature P=pack).

              Now coming back to your problems:
              1) Keyboard.- here you not clearly mentioned the problem, so I guess you may have same issue as mine. I'd two languages like English and Hindi. and it was annoying as i was having Hindi keyboard instead of english If I by mistake tap the globe icon at the bottom of keyboard. So here I just go to settings>Phone>Language>Writing Language>English (Checked) >Qwerty or Phone Keypad (depends on ur choice). Then you also have word suggestion there, which i think is good so i keep it on but you can also turn it off if its annoying to you. Just simply tap on its button on right side andd it will be off as you'll then notice the button turns black instead of blue.....





              2) Front Camera. I think you need to read the previous posts as i have already provided links for SCAM. By scam you can access the front Camera and take pictures via front camera as well as back camera and its totally free.

              3) Photo Gallery. Here its disappointing that nokia has removed the options for sending multiple files buy marking, you can only delete multiple items by marking. But here nokia has added the FACEBOOK button thats pretty decent as you can directly upload photos and videos to facebook.

              4) Photo Editing. Yes you can edit photos but you have less options as compared to FP1 or previous Software versions. Simply open gallery tap on photo then tap on Right extreeme button thats options then choose edit.

              5) GSM Network. I cant guess here, so you need to clearly mention your problem.

                              Carol, 01 Jan 2013Ok, let's see, you seem a nice guy who will try to answer t... moreI remember some 701 users reporting problems on nokia disscussions forum regarding WLAN (auto disconnect), then soon a WLAN update was rolled out that solved the problem. But in your case, Well you seem to have Strange problem, I mean not a phone-model specific problem (WLAN), may be a manufacturing defect. As In my phone Wlan works Smooth, Even i've Transfered Lots of files to and from my Windows Pc using "MyExplorer" via Wlan, no issues.


                              Well as far my daily use and the phone's performance In every aspect I'm pretty much Satisfied Except (Still) Camera(Fixed Focus) because i usually shoot Macros (Close Shots). I need to adjust the Phone at proper distance, otherwise If I get closer i get blurry Images.


                              Now talking About Pros And Cons.
                              I think this Phone has Little cons than Pros.

                              Pros:
                              Superb Gaming, Although lesss games available as compared to Android.
                              Superb 720p - HD Recording with continuos Video light, great even indoors.
                              Superb Multitasking. - A Symbian legacy Feature, that I'm Addicted to.
                              Cool looks, Beautiful widgets, Multiple Home screens, fluid Interface, Very fast response.
                              IPS LCD, best outdoor performance, even in minimum Brightness settings, - really the brightest smartphone in the world.
                              A good video player, supports wide range of codecs.
                              Best Audio player, Dolby Digital Headphones - Exceptional.
                              Exceptional third party apps - A little tweaking is needed for some apps.(Hacking - for certificate errors) Full tutorial is here http://www.n8fanclub.com ...
                              and much more pros to say regarding overall perfomance,,,,,,,,..

                              Good battery backup.

                              CONS:

                              1) Fixed focus camera, although not too bad, but capturing text for OCR, usually disappoints.
                              2) No third party Video Player like CORE PLAYER or MX player.
                              3) Third party apps are few and Don't expect much increment in the coming days as the Symbian platform is now Officially to be discontinued from 2016.
