Hi
to all those wondering wether they should upgrade to the latest Firmware Version 400.34.011.
Well I did it yesterday. My old Ver was 100.34.20.
I have read the firmware review but you cant beleive everything you read so I decided to upgrade to see it for my self.
Since I have had this new version all I can say is that my phone runs alot faster, especially the menu key when pressed its almost double the speed as before.
Also some of my sofware runs alot smoother.
So the bottom line is that this new firmware is just a bit faster and more stable than the old one. If you notice any other improvments please let me know.
By the way if you have any bugs after installing this firmware then just reformatt your phone memory and only restore your contacts only, the rest you will have to do manually.
God bless you all.

Kako, 13 Nov 2009Original Jamaica. have u tried Opera Mobile 10 beta web bro... moreTo KAKO:
I tried Opera 10 the very same day GSMArena reported it in the news. It worked flawlessly for me.
The only thing I can tell you to do right now is to uninstall it, turn the phone off, turn it back on re-install it again and see if it works fine now. If it still doesn't work fine try installing it to the PHONE MEMORY and see if it works fine. If it works fine then that means something is wrong with your memory card...if it doesn't work then you should consider upgrading your firmware IF you don't already have the latest.
In the case that it works on the phone memory as it is, connect your phone to a PC and transfer everything from the memory card to your PC (leave all the files on the PC until Opera starts working, you will see why later on) then format your memory card USING the phone's format utility. You can also use the PC to format the memory card but you will get better results when you use the phone and a little more capacity when using the phone's format feature. Once the memory card is formatted try reinstalling Opera right away (before you even transfer back your files to the memory card).
If it doesn't work then more than likely your memory card have bad sectors. Use your PC to fix them by right clicking the Mass Storage Drive from MY COMPUTER and then click PROPERTIES - TOOLS then under ERROR CHECKING click on CHECK NOW and select both boxes.
If it works fine right after the format then uninstall Opera from the phone memory, transfer your files from the PC back to the memory card then reinstall Opera again and see if it works. If it doesn't work then there's a conflict with some of the system files which you previously backed up to the PC. In that case uninstall all the programs from your memory card, format it once again using the E51's format and then send ONLY your personal files from your PC back to the memory card...videos, photos, music etc. In doing this the system folders will be new once again (eg. PRIVATE folder etc.).
Once again reinstall back Opera 10 to the memory card again and see what happens now that it's installed to fresh system folders.
Please let me know the outcome.

this is a damn good phone ; I din install the latest firmware so do not know about the wireless Power . But the only con in this is the on/off button and the side audio buttons . Very poorly designed . Mine fell off !! Apart from that awesome. I bought this phone in March 2008

I've it for two years and doin well. The only phone to replace E51 is either E71 or E72 mono-sim. I dont like the dual-sim cramp. So, I hope next time you'll be commenting on E72....and I'll be there.
Nice time buddy.

I've used this phone for over a year. Wonderful Design and excellent performance. I generally like the phone. My only turnoff is the keyboard.

I have had this phone for a year and a little now and i regret buying it for 650 dollars, i say WHAT A RIP. might as well go buy something alot better. The camera is very poor. the buttons are very small and hard for my friends to use hah, and the top on/ off buttton is now broken and ripped up and pushed into the phone from being turned on and off. The Wireless is great. There is lots on the phone and i am still finding cool new stuff on it but ide much rather a beter camera and the buttons usually fall out which annoys me. But overall i am pretty happy i would just rather the newer one. Nokia 900! woo haha

I personally don't mind it the way it is, I rather to see than be seen. I don't even have a webcam for my PC (smile).

@others-->Many complained about the camera. But I find it working great. Well, for a small phone with so many applications and functions available, one could not ask for more.
