I've tried installing HelloOX 1.02 with Mapping drives, HelloOX 1.03 and HelloOX2 but they all get stuck while installing root cert. Is there anything that i may be doing wrong since i tried installing all the above versions on my samsung i8910 and although they still didnt work except for the HelloOX2 which i currently use...none of them stuck at installation so my guess is its the fact that i have already updated my firmware on the N86!?! but can anyone confirm!

      I have had the n86 for over a week now.It has been running the latest firmware v20.115 and quite frankly,I feel I've been cheated,both by Nokia and GSMarena reviewers

      1.GSMA(GSMArena)said this phone has better audio quality and has even praised the phone for it.
      Do a side by side comparison of audio quality figures of N81(I previously had) and the N86 on this site and it will seem that the N86 wins hands down.In reality, the phone has the same bad quality as the n95/96/73 generation.Hear an N81 sing and I promise you you will find NO phone of Nokia brand superior in terms of audio quality(speakers as well as headphones)

      2.GSMA was my primary site for reviews and I had bought phones based on their reviews.What went wrong this time?
      I think that you got so carried away by nokia's Imaging flagship that you forgot to look into the finer details.This issue increasingly leads me to thinking that GSMA is increasingly becoming biased.

      3.Ive been a die-hard nokia user and,sincerely,I feel I was cheated as I paid quite a sum for a premium product and I got substandard performance(Even the GPS don't work).

              sea-breeze, 25 Oct 2009no it isn't faster than N82 by anyway N82 = Dual ARM 11 3... moreThats how people get wrong information for eg the moto v3 has graphics accelarater but it was used for foto proccessing only,,the n82 uses one proccessor for the radio side of things and the other for the operating system..the 3d hardware accelarater in n82 was used for a few games and tv out support nothing else..so the n82 is running at a lower speed overall..

                When using wifi to browse online, I find that it performs slower than the W995. Also, it has crashed on me a couple times when I try to multi-task, or may just lag a bit. Good thing I tried the N86 first or else I would have made a bad choice in buying it.

Their must be a simple answer to this problem but have you tried using different usb ports..

                      I am having trouble with ovi store,,i sign in and it just throws me back to the menu screen???
