Thanks avinash!
I have another question:
When I take a picture, how do I zoom in that picture to see the details?
Ex. if I take a pict of a text, I can't read it cause it displays the whole image on screen. How do I zoom in to read the text, if it's possible?

      i got this phone two weeks ago and it's a really ok choice for it price.

      still, it lacks some things like a quality photo camera, a memory card slot and a lcd screen (the dtsn is unreadable in the sun), PLUS: many java games won't fit because of the resolution (k500 has double pixels)

      i love the www.myk300.lasyk.net site, it has neat stuff in it

      i can't find a firwmare upgrade for the t9 languages :( help?

            it's my phone's first month since i bought it here in php.

            the joystick: still in good condition, just handle it with care so that it wont make failures.

            and abt the speaker i have stated that time:
            the speaker produces craking sound because the speaker has no bass but the earphones. you can hear. this situation is usually occur when you have put a song with a very high bass. WAV files are also supported in phone but is not advisable to play cause it sounds cracking also another is that it eats too much memory so you prefer to mp3 that has a better sound quality in small size.

            for those who wants to install mp3s even the phone has only 12MB ram,
            compress the mp3 at least 16-18kbps using musicmatch (convert files in the menu at the top) the quality is till good in the speaker but you can barely hear it in the earphone at better quality.

            K300 has all i need at this generation. the only drawback is the memory but still enough for storage of anything! i really love it!

              yes u can type fast sms.
              I bet u this is a best beginers multimedia phone.Go buy it :)

              To k300i fan,
              There is no option for sending java through ir, becoz i think copyright issues. But u can copy them in PC using cable or ir port.

                      It's a portuguese site.
                      www.celularchique.com
                      You can get almost 150 games, including the game " extreme air snowboarding 3d".
                      BUT , you need to register, it's free.

                            well said cezar, my opininions are same. K300 has a good speaker but at the same time it needs good care & protection from rash usage. Joystick is good too, only we should learn to use it smooth n softly. Then only it gives best results and I think K300 joystick is better than any higher class Nokia phones.

                              hey guyz...

                              for those complaining abt the joystick and the speaker this is what i observed.

                              joystick can be your worst hindrance for your phone if you persist to use it without proper discipline of taking care of it. i mean i you use your joystick very hard. another is the manufactuing of the product do you know only few of you does complains abt that issue? because here in the php, we all got k700,k300,k500 which has joystick as navigation key. but no one complains abt it except the only who presses hard on it's joystick making it loose to key in. so stop insisting that joystick is caused by dust or anything like that.

                              speaker of the k300 is good and for some complaining the speaker it's because of the manufacture of the product is not good here on your location. again here in the php, ther is no issue abt that. only the people that lacks discipline easily damages their own phone and SE has no responsibility of your faults...

                              so please. stop blaming SE for your own faults. handle your phone just like your bestfriends. use with care!

                                  My first phone and I fell in love. Fits perfectly in my palm, great display, easy to use .... but doesn't respond well after a spin in the washing machine :-( My second phone will be the K300.

                                      Hi friends !! This is indeed a excellent phone. It has so many feaures with its cute small design.
                                      If properly used camera takes excellent images. Some tips for good photos on K300 which I found good.
                                      **Don't shake ur hand when pressing capture button, hold still.

                                      ** Always start camera with side button on standby mode. which gives good speed to camera.
                                      ** Don't use cam if images moving slowly. Which blurres the images and video. Switch off and restart the phone to get speed in movement.
                                      ** Use shortcut buttons when taking pictures... press 1 for changing resolution, 2 for night mode, 3 for effects, 4 for timer.
                                      ** Using night mode not good some time, it gives grainy image..Avoid using it, utilise the availabe light.
                                      ** 640X480 is good for PC view. For wall papers use smallest resolution which will save memory.
                                      ** Turning silent mode will turn off the camera sound (Not all phones,depends on firmaware)
                                      ** Small resolution for video is good


                                      Hope these tips helps u..

                                      Enjoy...regards
