About the screen burning from the screensaver, what i have done is put a blank (white) picture as the screensaver, which makes the fone look like its turned off and does stuff up the screen.. just a suggestion..

The gunmetal 8800 is special edition and is different from the black one. The software ver for the gunmetal special edition is 3.94 - the clock and date bar do not move, which means it will burn an imprint on the LCD screen. You can see it on dark images better - try the converter

Gun metal colour 8800 is not the same as the black colour Russian version.
See the gun metal colour 8800 at the Nokia website for China.

I have had one on trial for two months.It is a very stylish phone.Function wise it is quite basic and the battery life is disappointing. On the whole it looks good and gets a good reaction from others who look at it.

Probably you have the newest firmware v3.94 but a previous fixed bug is back in this firmware. The bug is the power saving time bar that appears after the screen saver, this really does save power however the bar should move from top to middle to bottom of the screen every few seconds, this is to prevent the bar from burning out on the screen.In v3.94 the bar does not move, as a result it burns out the image on the screen, which is visible on darker backgrounds/images etc.
Basically it’s damaging the LCD screen!!!
Nokia made a big mistake to release this faulty phone and rip off people.
The worst phone of 8-series.

well its a great phone to have .. though scratchless screen gets scratch pretty soon and there you got it....
there is one more problem.... the clock in standby or power save mode.... if on for a long time it leaves a permanent mark which you can see when there is black background such as converter application... any new software or anybody can help

I just got the 8800 and cleaning it is really a task. Can someone tell me how to adjust the call volume? Maybe i'm going deaf but the speaker is quite low (outside of handsfree)
