anonnnnn, 05 Aug 2008i like this phone don't care bout the mp of the cameras but... moreHey friend, I've had a N93 some months ago and had the pre N-gage app on it , I think you have to create a folder on memory card or mass mem in your case name it N-gage ,put the unziped games example asphalt3.n-gage on this created folder, have the N-gage app installed, open it and will have on the app an option to install games , the app will look for all the games you have on your phone and you'll be prompted to choose wich one you want to install, hope it helps.

Anonymous, 07 Aug 2008AH yes, where there are winners there are haters. you dont ... moreLook elsewhere. There are twice more W910i users than users of N81 and N81 8Gb combined! Meaning to say, W910i is a lot better than N81 8Gb.

Anonymous, 07 Aug 2008you're the one who doesn't know a lot. w910i can multitask.... moreCan you read? I NEVER said W910 cant multitask, i said its not good at multitasking. The N81 doesn't break easily at all unless you are too rough. Fact is eventualy an "ordinary" user WILL want more out the device which W910 will be limited. The pathetic W910 cant even access Full PC Desktop YouTube with the default Web browser, yet the N81 can very simply and MANY "ORDINARY" users view YouTube.
LMAO! The W910 Won the 3GSM Award! LMAO! Well that says it all! The last device to win that was the SAMSUNG D900! LMAO! And that phone sukd! LOL! 3GSM Prove once again to chose the worst devices! LMAO! You are so funny!
Simply due to 3.5mm jack, Touch Navi-wheel like an iPod that works in other Menus, 2 3D dual loudspeakers, 16M colour display, Wi-Fi to connect to your home broadband (lol your ordinary users usualy have ths),Ngage gaming the N81 is already better specd and sounds better to your "ordinary" user.
LOL! Every phone is highly criticized, N95, N82, N81 etc. . . .the W910 is a terrible device, users complaining about speed and restarts and a weak loudspeaker as wel as muffled sound! LMAO! WOW what a WALKMAN!
Look is personal, in real life the N81 looks far better and more classy. The W910 looks like a phone made for 10yearlds!

Those problems that are V... moreyou're the one who doesn't know a lot. w910i can multitask. se has that feature on a200 platform. n81 is a piece of brick that is easy to break. while w910 is a lot more durable, class and good looking than n81. tell all the features of n81 to ordinary people and neither they will care nor be impressed. tell to regular folks how w910i can manage to control music playback and see how their ears flip in amazement! lol! nobody cares nor even distibguishes the difference of audio quality of n81 to other phones. have n81 got any award from other entities? well, w910i is named best gsm phone for 2008 by i forgot the name of the entity, you browse gsmarenas archive if you want to know. while n81 is being criticized here and there by nokia haters, nokia fans and even reviewers and critics.

Anonymous, 07 Aug 2008not everybody wants a symbian phone and not everyone is kno... moreLMAO! Freezing? Hanging? Lagging? Those problems that are VERY WELL associated with the pathetic Walkman W910! LOL! Only a pathetic person whose NEVER touched a N81 will say it lags, its MUCH faster than a W910. Both W910 and K850 cant handle multitasking very well. Running OperaMini, Media player, UCWEB, MXit, And a game at once on those SEs makes them lag, freeze and frequently hang yet doing the same on my N81 and its still fast. So what if most people arent technical? The fact is a lot of them will want to multitask, with the media player running in the background, the W910 is slower than a N81, so therefor less user-friendly.
A flop? N81? LMAO! I think you're lost bud,its selling very well in a lot of countries, why do you think NOKIA just gave it a major firmware update that adds a lot from the brand new FP3 Platform, and on top of that its still one of their most supported phones, with its own forum and technical team ready to assist. Whereas the W910 is just another SE that they will update little by little with nothing exciting, and eventualy it becomes boring, that pathetic device doesn't even have a built-in 3.5mm jack or dedicated music keys to start off with so realy for the average joe the N81 is still better.

The W910 has average sound quality and ... morenot everybody wants a symbian phone and not everyone is knowlegeable about the os related things. most people who want a music phone just want to play music in their phones and dont care about those stuff you posted. and most people dont want to encounter freezing, hanging, lagging and other malfunctions caused by an os. most people are not technical and just want to enjoy and have fun with their phones. w910i is the phone for those people because its most likely they will be content and satisfied with w910i rather than search for answers why on earth n81 has to frequently hang everytime they use it.

Anonymous, 06 Aug 2008How lousy you are to say that W910i is not a music phone! I... moreIn W series, W760 is the best. And U can play every format with add-on applications. So, forget the format problems.
For sample, use Mobiola or something else.
But
For a better song quality, buy a better earphones or headsets.
It also depends on the quality of headset too.
But I think N81 is better.

Anything else?

anonnnnn, 05 Aug 2008i like this phone don't care bout the mp of the cameras but... moreYeah Bro,
Install Zip manager on ur mobile first U can get it here.
www.mobiles24.com
Register, Log on from your N81, go to wap.mobiles24.com,
Find the software, mark download ID,
Then Choose Download by ID.
Then type the ID in,
Then "GO"

Then install it.

2) To install software from zip file,

connect your phone with mass memory mode to computer,
Save your zip file in "Others" folder or as U like in Mass memory (not Phone memory).
Then Un-plug the phone from computer.
open zip manager.
IOt will find automatic.

And whenever U download a program in Zip file, this ZIP manager will help to install.

Any other questions?

Anonymous, 06 Aug 2008How lousy you are to say that W910i is not a music phone! I... moreDont make me laugh. The W910 has average sound quality and poor loudspeaker. Yes it can play MOST of the formats the N81 can, but W910 cant play ogg, ogm, asf, aif audio files, and it cant play avi, divx, flv, gvi, mpeg1 and 2 video files yet N81 can play all of them at VERY high bit rates. Lol shake control? How old are you? 8? That feature is SOO overrated and makes you look like an id1ot when using it,it doesn't even work properly most times LMAO! The music player of the N81 is great, its fast, simple, well organised and extremely easy to use, but the main point of it is to PLAY MUSIC WELL which the W910 is average at, it maybe eye candy but the quality of the music so average, my K850 (yes i have both N81 and K850) is on par with the W910 lol,so much for it being a WALKMAN.
LOL 3D JAVA GAMES!!? LMAO! Thats PATHETIC, 3D java is NOTHING compared to 3D symbian games, ever playd Asphalt4 3D on a W910? Now try that on a N81 in symbian version. The symbian version is A LOT MORE detailed,and more 3-Dimensional than the java one. And dont get me startd on those useless accelerometer java games,they are just as bad as normal java games.
ON TOP of all this the N81 has dedicated Music keys, an audio chip, 3D dual loudspeakers, Wi-Fi with UPnP, 3.5mm jack, key lock switch, a quick access multimedia key as well as the Symbian OS which expands the N81's capabilities. Lol the poor little W910 doesnt stand a chance. :-)

How lousy you are to say that W910i is not a music phone! Infact, W910i is the best Walkman phone. It's even better than W960i in sound quality and design. W910i can play all audio formats that N81 plays including MP3, AAC, M4A, WMA. And it has a nice feature called "Shake me", an accelerometer-based feature that lets you control the playback of the songs by just shaking the phone left or right. Aside from music, W910i has other great extra features. It can play 3D games based on the new Java platform in landscape mode using the gaming A & B buttons just like on N81. Did I forget to mention that the Walkman 3.0 music player is so much nicer, so much more advanced and so much more of an eye-candy than the S60 music player? Have you seen how visually appealing the flash themes of W910i? W910i can surf the web using Netfront browser in broadband speed via HSDPA connection. The only thing that W910i lacks is the OS which is a good thing for many because it's less complicated to operate.
W910i is a very competent music phone.
