    mani (karachi), 21 Jun 2008hi do you know nokia release e66? what is the major diff... morewell in general both are 3G enabled phones while the E66 has a dedicated cam for video calls, a larger display, 3mpxl cam, an accelerometer, considerably more features than the E51 and 128MB of ram. i cant say much about the E66 since i have not got a chance to examine it physically. so i will leave that to the experts at GSMArena or a person who has got a chance to experience both phones.

        HBK, 21 Jun 2008Hey fellows e51 user im sms lover and i send and receive hu... moreI don't think anyone here will store more than a 1000 messages in their phones. because having lot of messages in your inbox is kind of annoying when you have to search for 1 particular important message. so therefore i don't think anyone here will give a proper answer for that. but as for your next question, yes, you can change the message storage location from phone memory to memory card. goto menu > messaging > options > settings > other > memory in use into memory card.

          Ridewind, 21 Jun 2008Where can we find all the codecs for this phone? For exampl... moreyou can download smart movie player from www.mobango.com and you can get the newest version of divx player from the divx official web site. but .wmv is a format that i'm not so sure about whether you can play with those players and codes. but instead you can always convert any video file you want into .divx or .avi and play them with the above mentioned video players.

              Yesterday, I updated the firmware for the E51, it is now the latest: 200.34.36.

              However after this update internet from phone stopped working. I can't use e-mail, browser or any other app that needs connection to the internet. It will not work over gprs, edge, HSDPA nor wifi. All it says is: "connection not available", it will not even try to bring up packet data connection, with wifi it will connect to the network but apps can't use it.

              Also, the (WAP. WEB and MMS) setting massage that the provider (or from Nokia site) sent to the mobile is received corrupted and can't be saved.

              Any tips?

For example, I am searching very hard for it to play all the streaming wmv but dupe because as it is it will refuse to play all the wmv streaming sites.

                      For those not on 3G network, do this to switch off the 3G scanning:
                      Tools> Settings> Phone> Network> Network mode> GSM only.

                      Why would one not want both? Well it has been proven time and again that scanning for both network strain the battery.
                      But more importantly in many locations, the auto switching of GSM UTMS(3G) often drop the call.

                              Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970don't be silly now. what is there to do with your computers firewall if there is no update for you phones product code? and have you updated your phone recently? if you have done it you must have noticed that the new firmware (200.34.36) is only 67MB, not 89MB!!!! not even the new version of the the pc suit 6.86 version is also only 30.8MB so far i have never seen anything big like 89MB to be downloaded on the nokia's official web site. grow up boy. and stop bringing up pointless arguments in this forum. if you want to help someone go ahead. but make sure you don't give that person any misleading advice. and watch your language. if you offend me or any other person who is in this forum, your IP will be banned from the site allowing you not to post in this forum again.
