Hi, I just got it for the camera but I am disapointed, nokia camera makes better shots, even 3.2 megapixels.
Megapixels are not the only aspect of a pic, also resulotion is needed, samsung resolution is about 72 DPI while nokia is 300. big difference.

IF all else fails ask your operator if something is up,,WHY??? because they hated wi-fi because you could use voip and it would kill their revenue and it was disabled in n95 etc to stop voip calls..
I have never seen a set up for wi-fi except the router ....You just search connect and add passphrase/password and your in..
I have just installed y-browser as system explorer i have used on nokias does not work as yet because i am trying to find my dictionary..The only thing i can think of was wen i first got innov8 i updated straight away and maybe it got deleted..Still a great fone i just hope as symbian is going or is open source os something so all nokia apps will port to other series 60 devices whoever makes them....

Mirza, 26 Jan 2009Thanks again. I am trying day and night to connect via WLAN... moreI am sim free,,8gb version and using voda uk..
software version i8510xxhj3
software version date 7/10/2008
custom version i8510lo8xeuhj1
custom version date 01/10/2008
language set 08
model i8510
type i8510
last updated not updated but i have done??
Go to web then settings and then open up general,,you will see access point set this to always ask..scroll down jave/ecma script and make sure thats enabled..
NEXT return to homescreen..Then press menu button,,go to settings,,scroll to connection and open and this is what i have,,access point,,internet,,multi media msg,,wap services,,.....Under internet it says 2 access points and when i open it up i have my wlan name and VF isp...So check if your wifi network is in any of these settings..VF just means vodafone..
Staying in connections tab scroll to Wireless lan and open up,,my settings are show wireless lan and its set to "never" and below that it says internet connectivity test and mine is "ask every time"..
Return to home screen and this is what i do,,
press menu or if its one of your shortcuts to get to web app and open,,i then scroll thru bookmarks to the site i want to visit ie bbc mobile and select..Then the barbers shop stripes go along the screen and it says search for wireless lan OR internet OR wap...I select search for wireless lan and in 2-5 seconds i am presented with list of all wlan..I select mine and it does the barbers stripes saying connecting,,,,I then have to enter my passphrase and ok it and it does the barber shop stripes and up comes bbc mobile..
Next time i connect to web because i selected always ask i can just nip straight to wifi internet or select wap or just internet via gprs/3g/hsdpa..
I hope this makes sense i read it twice and have one last option..Is your network hidden???

brynn, 25 Jan 2009I tell you what i would like to see and that a battery repo... moreyep that's what i need brynn and thanks so much. i am still reading each and every comment/experiences thru here and forums locally... i am getting into innov8's charm against c905's.... there are a lot of bad reviews with it over satisfied personal experiences.... though i am not quite sure if the firmware update will do the thing... hardware still count..

Mirza, 25 Jan 2009Dear Brynn, Thanks for the reply. Yep, ur right. Samsung... morei am replying to this via wifi..so no probs...can n95 use fone loudspeaker whilst shut if yes then we need to find out an app for innov8..have not ventured into u tube yet cause still getting used to fone,.We and others need to get searching for apps that work with innov8 and just had thouhht that samsung g810 is series 60 so going to start trawling thru that forum 4 apps...This fone is top notch but needs some 3rd party apps to act like nokia but with all the power of vid/cam/mp3 clarity etc

Thanks for the reply. Yep, ur right. Samsung does not want the Innov8 users to have a Crystel Clear screen for long, hence the non-avialability of the Screen protector. As for the TV-out cable, I am already using my N95 8Gig's cable with my new Innov8. As for the applications of the same S60 3rd Edition not working on different handsets/brands in some other thing and thats the Catch, Really!
Anyhow, would greatly appreciate if you/someone could emphasize and advise regarding the 2nd, 3rd and 4th clauses of my previous message/post. THANX again!

Mirza, 25 Jan 2009Just bought this phone 2 days ago. Also own a Nokia N95 8GB... moreI never got screen protector either and got it sim free and box was fully seald both ends..The tv out cable from n95-1,,n958gb,,n82 work in innov8..This is how you do it tho,,once inserted i kept selecting headset out etc but if you scroll down to third option on innov8 it say tv-out,,iam stupid..The nokia apps are for nokia but hopefully things will be available or get ported for other series 60 mobiles..The way series 60 works gets me bacause when using second edition symbian when i changed fone ie from nokia 6630 to 6680 some apps would not work and its same with third edition..IF its series 60 3rd edition it should work on every fone in the series 60 3rd edition platform so how can some apps not work on exactly the same platform just a different fone..???

Just bought this phone 2 days ago. Also own a Nokia N95 8GB. Unpacked it and found that there wasn't even a Screen protector Sticker. Guess my dealer beat me to it or Samsung did not bother to cover the Display. Was also surprised to find out that Samsung did not even bother to include a TV-Out cable with this high-end gadget. Anyhow, been checking out the features and am quite impressed with build, Cam, Video, Playback, sound, optical pad, keypad, Auto rotation and I am sure that there are alot of other goodies that are yet to be explored by me. However, there are quite a few things that have really let me down in disappointment and hope that there is some solutions to them.
1. Really miss the 3D rotating view in Gallery folder (images, videos etc.), like the one in Nokia n-series phones. I wonder if there is a S60 supporting third-party application to acquire this effect.
2. Even if this has the Real Player, I have been unable to play utube (flash) vids on the handset. GSM Arena Review mentioned that playing Flash vids was no problem on this phone, however I find it otherwise. Any suggestions?
3. Unable to use Wi-Fi Connectivity. It detects my Wi-fi router, however does not start browsing/data transmission giving the message "no gateway reply". Just to inform that there is nothing wrong with my DSL Broadband connection/WLAN router, as my 2 laptops and my N95-8GB are working fine. I think the UPnP technology of N95 has paid off here. Any suggestions are welcome!!
4. Does not have any loudspeaker option during a Call while the slider is closed . Can only use loudspeaker while the phone is slided up.
Do hope that do not find any other flaws in this Phone after further usage!

Samsung seem keen to get feedback on S60 application compatibility problems that you may be experiencing with their latest smartphones.
They have just opened up a dedicated discussion board for this :

Arnold, 25 Jan 2009yeah i read the reviews both products and my best judgement... moreI tell you what i would like to see and that a battery report..
The thing is i do not have 905 to compare with but if gsmarena did cam/vid/mp3/battery/gps tests and give them a star rating out of 10 it would be good,,for eg,,
innov8
battery 7 stars
cam 9 stars
video 9stars
n82
battery 6 stars
cam 8 stars
video 7 stars..
With this rating we could see that of the gsm team that do the same test on every model it would be accurate against each fone leaving the 10 star mark for absolutly blown away...
Lets say you only wanted the gps part of the fone thats mega important to you ,,by skimming thru the results lets say the htc pro was the best then you go for that..This should have been done from the start..Some folk may come on here for good battery and good cam but not care less about mp3 or video quality,,by comparing the bigger rating stars in cam and battery ratings they could find a suitable fone.
If people are serious about a gadget they will buy the standalone item,,however the cam/video/mp3/screen/series 60 makes it perfect to replace the said devices in the innov8 ,but, if i was going for a satnav judging by the resolution and size of innov8 it would not be able to beat a standalone device..So all in all hard for people to swear their lives to a mobile in cases where japanese and south korean mobiles shame the european and american counterparts...I still have not found my perfect mobile,the xperia is to hard to txt an operate in crowds or whilst walking etc,, but anyway my perfect mobile would be a clamshell so i am no where near any mobile that i am going to shout from the rooftops about...
