Anonymous, 19 Feb 2012i hav plenty of questions about my n97 mini:
1.is there wi... morewell I don't think Nokia will b producing anymore updates after v30 but regular people might still make a few custom firmwares.aside from that you can play with "spb mobile shell" the version i have is "3.7.498". U can google it 2 see what it is and download. U dont have to do any warranty voiding stuff. Just download and install, like an app and it changes ur layout almost completely. Its really a nice way 2 make ur ph feel new and different. U will b able 2 have up2 5 homescreens and it has a lot of animations and personalization. It will b pretty much impossible 2 find 2 phones running spb mobile shell with the exact same layout, that how customizable this is. It uses up some ram tho so b warned
This could be me just being crazy but I feel like my battery lasts longer with spb :/
I use it while it's charging 2 and I wonder the same thing

komrade, 14 Feb 2012no match for my e90 communicator Even c7. Yeah2 screen,to... moreyeah the e90 is really a beast, but the only feature it has over the n97 mini is a 4" display which isn't even touch sensitive. alone with the old symbian 3. But they are completely different device. If one is completely dedicated to texting the the e90 is as good as it gets, but if u need an all round media device then the mini is the best. It's more feature rich, not to mention is looks better lol.

akki, 05 Feb 2012i have nokia n 97 mini since 15 month and this phone master... moresorry bout that other post I accidently touched submit lol
lol I like how enthusiastic u r but u r also very wrong when u said it has the same features as the c7, maybe u meant to say the c6 but the mini is better than the c6further more1. The c7 has a larger 3.5" amoled capacitive touch screen which is wayyyy better than the 3.2" resistive touch on the mini. Its more sensitive and the colors are much richer2. The c7 has gorilla glass which rocks but resistive touch screens cannot have gorilla glass and if it werent for me buying screen protectors then my screen would b in horrible condition3. The mini has two stereo speakers, the c7 doesnt. Which makes a big difference in sounce output quality4. The c7 takes up to 32gb memory cards the mini goes up to 16gb alog with twice the RAM5.the c7 has NFC support (just google it and u will see how cool it is)6. C7 has an 8mp fixed focus and the mini has a 5mp auto focus with advanced optics7. The c7 was launched with symbian^3 but updates to Anna and now Belle8. The c7 has a faster cpu and unlike the mini, the c7 has a dedicated gpu9. The c7 has usb on the go which is so awesome!!!10. The c7 also has an fm transmitter11. The mini has that gr8 qwerty keyboard (I'm writing this usingg that keyboard right now lol)so other than the camera, speakers and keyboard, the c7 is the much superior phone. So unless u reallly prefer qwerty physical keyboards than get the c7...

dee, 08 Feb 2012how can i upgrade my n97 mini software ?just go into
with ur phone----setttings>phone management>device updates>options>check for updates
with ur computer open nokia suite(connect phone an select suite when asked)>software updates>
if there is an update for ur region u will see it here, if u already have the update or it isnt available for ur region nothing new will come up(if its not available for ur region it most likely means that nokia just doesnt care about u or the update is in a language that is inappropriate for u). My mini came with v12 but v30 rolled out after that. Sadly the udate was not for my region so my phone kept saying it was up to date, but I knew for a fact the new update was in english and nokia just didnt care about my region (i live in the caribbean btw)
So my only solution was to either flash the update on with phoenix or get it from suite by tricking nokia into thinkn ur in another region.
N.b. Flashing is dangerous and voids ur warranty, it can also destroy ur phone if any mistakes are made, so it should be ur last resort. But it is great for getting cool custom firmware
PLEASE back up ur device before u do anything...
1. To flash it on u need to download the update with navifirm and then flash it on with phoenix(youtube will b ur friend and show u all about navifirm and phoenix)
2. And this is much more recommended. Using navifirm find ur phone, the update then the variation with the right language for u but DONT download, just look @ the product code showed in brackect as the end of the variation name (its supposed to start with a "05")
then using NSS change ur phones product code to this new one and hard reset the device. Now plug into nokia suite and it should see ur phone an a new one. Now the update will magically be available to u. It might not work on the 1st changed product code as i had to change twice before the update worked (the 1st time the update kept getting an error)
njoy. Please reply 2 let me know if it works...

Nirokash, 10 Feb 2012How to do TV output via this phone? some body tell me please....just buy a composite cable(make sure one end is a 3.5 mm pic and the other side splits off into the 3 colors red, yellow and white) plug it into ur phone and tv and viola :). Not all cables work easily some u have to push all the way in and some u push only a certain amount.
My tv-out works gr8 :) let me know if it works 4 u.
N.b if u get any isseues
menu>settings>phone>accessories>TV-Out
Default profile: Active Profile
TV aspect ratio: mines is normal
TV system mines is PAL but it varies so NTSC might b whatg u need
Flicker filter: turned mines off
p.s. I dont mean to b disrespectful but ensure u have an original Nokia N97 mini if u wanna try this cuz chinese clones and dual sims dont have this function...

Miss Hot Chocolate, 04 Feb 2012YO urmmm.... I'm getting mixed awnsers about the phone I ha... moreive been using this phone for two years now... and now the battery drain much faster with heavy usage, i have to charge it twice a day. with the touch response, at first it was a mess but when the final update came out, i had no problem with it. so update your phone's software/firmware. downloading files, yes it can, you even run it on the background and for the internet connection, depends how fast your network provider or wifi... but i use wifi for faster connection speed.
