    CHAT VICTIM, 07 Jun 2013ok...lets talk abt basic functions....i.e. text...phone cal... moreMy answers to your queries are mentioned below:

    "1. text- it takes long time to open any app including massaging n whtsapp....or screen goes black if i try to open it 3 o4r 4 times ...so practically massaging is very imposible in this phone.."

    I have had no such issues with text messages. I use Handcent and it works great on the Chat B5330. I have configured the Handcent app on the "customised key" and when I press this key (which is below the ‘Enter’ key and to the right to the ‘chaton’ key’, the Handcent app opens within 2-3 seconds. This app works flawlessly. Even Whatsapp and the inbuilt text app work without a glitch and open on my phone with 3-4 seconds.

    "2. call - when i click a contact to make a call ..it takes around 15 to 20 minutes to connect the call."

    I have had no such problems while making calls and ALL calls (local or international) have worked as efficiently as the previous phone (Nokia E5) that I owned.

    "3. if m using a browser n i have to click home button to use any other app when i come back to browser again it get restart n reload d page again...its very irritating ..
    if its 512 ram can not run 15 basic apps then wht abt the other phones with same ram that runs same app so smothely..."

    No, I have not encountered such a problem on my phone. Also, kindly note that I have presently installed the following 10 apps (in addition to the factory pre-installed apps) on my phone:

    Whatsapp
    Opera Mobile
    Tiny Flashlight
    Newshunt
    SMS Backup+
    Battery Notifier BT
    Handcent SMS
    Solitaire
    Wordathon
    ConvertPad

    ALL, I repeat, all of them are working great on my phone. Do note that these apps do not use much RAM and they presently use about 365MB of the available 445MB RAM.

    "dont take me wrong...m talking about budget phone only...my expectations r not so high wth tht device...but unfortunately it dsnt provide basic functions"

    I have it difficult to understand how you have had multiple problems with your chat B5330 and I have had none so far. I stand by my claim that the Chat B5330 phone DOES provide the basic functions and they have performed great on my phone so far. Yes, the phone is slightly slower to respond in comparison with higher priced phones, but at Rs 6000 (Indian rupees), I cannot complain about the speed, especially when it performs to its capabilities.

                  Here's how:

                  1. I have disabled wifi, bluetooth, GPS, sync, etc and use them only when needed.

                  2. My screen brightness is set to the bare minimum that is acceptable to me.

                  3. Set the screen settings to ensure that it is powered off as quickly as is acceptable to me.

                  4. Avoid vibration in the ringer tone when possible.

                  5. Kill unnecessary open applications using task manager.

                  6. I have assigned the "customized" key (which is below the "enter" key for the most used app (in my case, the handcent app to text messages). In this case, there is less use of the screen.

                    1. You are using JB on the B5330 and users have claimed that the phone is considerably slower when ICS is upgraded to JB.

                    2. You are using "only 15 apps" and when you have only 512MB RAM, it is bound to be slow. And if these 15 apps are resource/RAM hungry, the phone will be even slower.

                    Please remember that the B5330 is meant for limited features:

                    1. Calls
                    2. Text (with the QWERTY pad)
                    3. Basic apps

                    If you expect anything "higher, faster, stronger", pay 6-7 times more and get the Blackberry Q10, the best QWERTY phone at present.

                        The sound/music quality is decent for the phone and I tried to install a number of "chat" apps (whatsapp, viber, nimbuss, tango, etc), only to realise that it ate up my RAM and the phone became very slow.

                        To free up more RAM and make the phone faster, I uninstalled some of the apps and I have only kept the ones that I really need. Now, the phone works just fine.

                        Please, please do not expect Galaxy S4-like features, speed and performance on the B5330. This phone is meant for a purpose (texting with QWERTY) and for the budget-conscious lot.

                          If you use apps that need to be constantly "active" (like whatsapp, chaton, etc) expect the phone to move slower than a turtle.
