    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.

    Now the battery level is 95% remaining (after 8 hours 40 min of standby). Lets see till 24 hours.

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.

Apparently your technology history is a "curpapir". But minding the fact you're a small boy, i forgive you... once! Second off all, in 2008 Nokia bought Symbian, that is what i've said. Learn to read, apparently you don't know to read either. Third off all, Symbian is older then you. 2004 my bright a**! Don't get "smartie" with me here. Now... go teach your self some technology before coming here with your ignorance.

More then 3mb you will not get from it, but only with mods. And i haven't seen a good mode for belle refresh yet. Anyway, it does not matter. The quality is more then enough with 12 mp camera. To see the focus indicator (a kind of "square", cause you can see only the corners, there are no sides) You need to press the camera dedicated button just until the first click (half down) don't press it till the end. If you press it a bit, you will hear a silent click, that's the point when it's focusing. keep the button pressed like this until the red light goes off, then you will see this "square" (red= not good, green = good). When it's green, take the shot (during this process never release the button, cause you will have to take everything from the beginning). Don't use the screen touch button to shot photos in dark light. they may become blurry.
