                  GD, 21 Jan 2011The headphone jack is not stable. It keeps coming off, ever... moreThe headphone jack is not stable. It keeps coming off, every time it comes off the music pauses. I tried to use it at gym. I mean the phone has some major issues but this one takes the cake. Seriously dissapointed. Would sell it if I wasn't making a big loss in doing so.

                  -> Before you insert the headphone jack to your device make sure see the logo of headest is face for you and insert it.

                  Messaging also u have to click on several times to get to a page. I am going back to my bb where it has all the functions and music player with a headphone jack that fits.

                  -> liar

                  If the phone hits ur cheek while talking then the line gets cut or put on hold.
                  OVI sync of FB/Twitter into one page is very unnecessary and browser doesnt work fast like a BB.
                  Phone dial pad gets stuck most of time. So calling isn't easy.

                  -> Social Networking FB,twitter need to log-in first in ovi for security of your Fb,twitter account.
                  -> Yes default Browser not too fast but will update soon Html5, Use Opera mini 10.1 or UC browser its really fast to browse page.

                  No redial function.Seriously.
                  -> Liar

                  Some form of instructions have to be given on how to use it with Mac and sync with itunes if they want to get in on music player market, At least a CD rom with instructions or downloads. I had to scram through net and various posts to get certain things figured out.
                  Once you activate email download regularly it drains the battery fast.
                  Two months I tried using without much success.

                  -> Because they don't know how to use your phone,

                  Power active Mode
                  -Offline widgets
                  -disable all connection to your gps Go setting-application-position method and unchecked all except the integraded gps...
                  -set wlan only

                  if you want Deactive Power Saver Mode
                  --Offline widgets
                  -disable all connection to your gps Go setting-application-position method and unchecked all except the integraded gps...
                  -set wlan only
                  -off themes effect setting-themes-option-themes effect off.
                  -set None screen saver

                  Im using This device almost a month its really awesome battery life using power saver mode->3-5days, Deactive power saver mode with full light sensitivity->2days...

                  I think Your not Own this phone, Your N8 haters or Blackberry user...

                    I just noticed. The N8 was only defeated in the daily interest ranking for the first few days that the SE Arc and Motorola Atrix news were featured. But now, n8 tops again, whoo!
