Updated my 5800 to v20.0.012, here is my experience wid da device after updating :


1) Touch seems to be better especially in the web browser when scrolling large websites

2) Web browsing speed is increased and page rendering is much more quicker.

3) The amount of free RAM has decreased by about 3-4 MB.

4) A problem i read about on the net regarding the display changing HUE for 3-4 seconds appearing purplish and again becoming normal has appeared.it may happen 4-5 times in a day

I have GPRS active on my connection and browse using the same.
For a Wi-Fi access point proper configuration must be done on the host PC. Unfortunately i dont have Wi-Fi and dont know how to configure it.

The 'No Gateway Found' is shown when you havnt configured your wireless connection properly and hence no internet access is enabled thru it.

You have to search forum for enabling wireless in a home PC/router for accessing net on a laptop, the same funda should work for Mobile-phones.

Hi post your review of Nokia 5800XM

Hi All,

Got a red 5800XM few weeks back, would like to share my experience
what i liked about the phone :
1. The music quality is very good. Preferrably use a good in ear headphone instead of the ones provided by Nokia ( Im using my old Sony Walkman series in ear headphones, the sound quality is amazing)
2. Video playback is awesome, the resolution of the phone enables this superb video playback. the video playback was better than iTouch.
3. the TV out facility
4. The multiple messaging options. I specially enjoy the "Full QWERTY" keyboard layout, its fun smsing using this option. Also the handwriting option was good and responsive
5. Dedicated screen lock button.
6. The screen size is big enough enabling bigger buttons and fonts, which makes using the touchscreen user friendly
7. Proximity sensor is very useful. I had a bad time with my sony phones opening applications during call.
8. Acclerometer functionality of

Dislike:
1. Poor camera quality in low light conditions
2. Lack of dedicated scroller. (i miss this big time, was very much used to it on my last two sony touchscreen phones)
3. UI is bit slow. (Again comparing to Sony phones)


To summarize if ur a music / video fanatic... then this phone is the best deal
