[deleted post]Buy from http://www.ebay.com

    I noticed in an online shop in the Netherlands, the N9 (silver) only costs 199 euro. The black version about 219 euro. Never saw the N8 being so cheap (199 euro), i think it's a good deal.

      Carol, 27 Nov 2012If, after 8 hours your battery qas at 95% the problem is so... moreTo carol :
      I have put to charge till 100% (charge complete indication) on 26th November 2012 at 10:00 PM.

      Now the time is 10:51 PM on 27th November 2012.

      Battery remaining now is 63% (as shown by Nokia battery monitor).

      No background applications (except BEST PROFILES software which activates the selected profile at the saved time) are running till now. Just 20 minutes voice call and 10 minutes GPRS (both not continuous) and ringtone testing for 10 minutes (each song clip one by one) at volume 7.

      They told that they have not changed the handset.

      If you feel that this is an improvement, which part of my mobile was faulty (before giving to the Nokia care)?. Any guess?.

Now you should get 2 to 3 days in normal usage and 1 day witj heavy usage. Also pay attention to what's running in background. Maps never close it selves and will eat a bit of your battery, a bit mor i may say. Last night i forgot to kill it's processes (use best taskman to do that) and through the night my battery came down by 6%. Normaly, in standby mode, my battery comes down with 1 to 3% maximum. Now i use an app which put's my phone in power saving mode auromaticaly if i don't use it. So after one night in standby mode, my battery is the same...

                          Hi All...


                          To have more battery life ...simple things to be noted

                          1)Do u use 3G data everywhere and always..If yes then ur antenna finding for best signal strength draws more power
                          2)If No or not often...switch 3G mode off when not in use and see....you will have max backup on battery....just use a toggle widget by defualt to switch....

                          I get 3 days flat battery by switching this method...even by hearing music and watching videos..meant movies...

                              I got my N8 back from the service on 26th Nov evening.
                              Now the time is 06:40 AM Indian Standard Time (GMT + 5.5 hours)
                              It was charged full at 10 PM Indian Standard Time.

It gave t... moreIf you were using Opera, it is normal, that program eats allot of space with it's cache files. If doesn't boot anymore you maybe have to do a hard reset. This procedure leaves you without C: memory, also with this procedure you will lose all the factory apps, the only way to get them fully back is to reinstall firmware with phoenix. Out there are allot of ways to get them but only half working properly. i don't like the mess presented there. So a good flashing with phoenix is the real answer to that. Your mass memory might be saved. I never had my mass memory deleted when doing a hard reset but some people say will be formatted to. Not in my case. So... what to say, you may not get back everything, unfortunately. You can go to Nokia, maybe they can help you more with the issue.
