Dear Wheez,

I can understand your reluctance against 'hacking' thing because it's allowing us to do some illegal things using the mobile.. But for me, I look at it positively though.. Forget about fast typing and recording phone calls.. How about installing any software you like without having 'certificate error' bla bla...?

Well... I made my mind to buy this mobile after reading your comments earlier... Those were so positive indeed... And I was already a Nokia-Symbian lover.. So without any hesitation I went for the phone once it's out and when my budget was OK.. Now I'm using it for few months and still a very happy user..

Wonderful camera, so many features, the features I got after hacking all of them have made me so happy using this beauty...!

If I say I've installed more than 200 applications in my Nokia N8 would you believe that...? But yes... Still it works like a charm and I absolutely love Symbian for the exact reason that it's so damn flexible... After hacking it doesn't know the meaning of the word 'restrict'

I myself love the ideas of 'sharing' and 'freedom'... If you don't mind joining me at facebook, please search for me 'ppnuwan(at)yahoo(dot)com'

Thanks my friend...
(By the way, at those times, when you dedicate your valuable time to answer the questions regarding N8 for GSMarena askers, I was wondering whether this is a nokia company agent... Ha ha... You're obviously not... But you live in Finland if I remember correct.. and you're a college student who lives near a Nokia factory.. I remember that information from your posts... You did a really nice job back then you know... You almost convinced me to buy this mobile and I bought and have No regrets.... Thanks for that brother...)

Again, please add me as your friend in facebook... See you later...

    Dear 239,

    It's a MOD created by CodeRus... Well... I'm unable to paste links here... So you better search in google using below key words... "change song metadata mode by coderus" then you'll find it...

    If your phone is hacked then this is very simple..

              AnonD-2912, 26 Jun 2011Dear Wheez, I've been reading your posts from the beginn... moreActually I havn't. I'm pretty shy when it comes to stuff like this (I'm too afraid to even download and install a pirated Win 7, so I just bought it instead lol), and I believe that might even void warranty on the N8?

              And I still won't do it :D Maybe the SMS's keeping up a bit better sounds ok, but I don't type fast enough to usually for it to make a difference anyways. My camera is totally silent as it is and I never record phonecalls anyways :D

              Good to see someone still remembers me around here! :D

              Indeed waiting on Symbian Anna, although I don't really have high hopes for it, but at least the new browser is welcome. Using several tabs on the current one is a bit complicated at times :D

                I still love my N8. I just realized that I got everything I need in it. I keep on rediscovering its many features. I'm so satisfied. Can't wait for the update to Symbian Anna.

                    I've been reading your posts from the beginning... I know you're not fully satisfied with your N8 but still you're a quite happy owner of it anyway... (Kind of same here...)

                    I just want to ask whether your phone is hacked or not... Because I hacked my phone few weeks ago and now it's wonderful... I can type SMS very very fast... (I've installed portrait qwerty keyboard as well.. But I don't like it personally..) and I can record phone calls without beep with high quality... No sound when taking photos... I can install any software without getting any error message...! and Equalizer editing capability is now on in my N8...! I can edit song's meta data using the music player... And I have 4 X 5 grid menu instead same old 3 X 4 traditional menu grid...

                    How's that sound...? I think you've already hacked your mobile... Haven't you...?

                          On a side note, it's sort of weird to watch some videos about the WP Mango, when they are sort of hyping like "yea check out this awesome new feature" when N8 had it from a scratch. Mainly feeling this about it's multitasking that they really seem to be hyping.

                                  I'm somewhat attracted by both the Meego as well as the upcoming Windows Phones, but I know at least the Windows phone will lack attributes that I'm not willing to give up from the N8 - for example the possibility to use N8 as mass memory without needing a software installed on the computer.

                                  I really like the looks and feel of Meego, but I think it's a bit stupid to buy a phone that has absolutely no future. Then again, Symbian^3 is mostly the same, but at least they have some amount of staff for it and it'll keep going on the cheaper end phones, so some support will be there.

                                  And as a last reason, my N8 is only a year old by the time those come out and it works perfectly with no flaws and I'm perfectly happy with it. I hope that in a year the Windows phones develop many of the good features of Symbian (currently WP reminds me of iOS, very much locked down unlike Symbian).
