Official Nokia 5800 XpressMusic discussion thread

i have a problem with radio ...sometimes the radio channels go blank....it doesnt scan or show channels till i restart phone....is it my phone defective or firmware prob...or its there in many phone?

Have you tried hard/soft reset your phone ?? Which firmware are you using ? I never tried the radio stuff as 8gb is enough for my music collection but as sujoyp said :

no problem with radio in my phone...using for last 6 months:smile:

Small Q on 5800,

There is no GPRS.

Can we download full maps of all India & Use it offline just by using GPS of 5800 ?
There will be no GRPS connection at all.

If yes, Which maps works good for India - Google or Nokia ovi ?

I am already using full map of India with ovi maps. You can use your offline gps with the maps already downloaded on your phone..maps are around 108mb and also download voices for drive and walk..its very easier to setup a route from my home to destination with ovi maps but i use it with gprs. You can use the ovi maps without gprs but there may be some features that you would not be able to access without gprs i.e. bump weather and lonely planet.

For google maps u need an active gprs connection. Go for ovi maps and in the settings you will find option to start ovi maps "offline always".:-D

Thank you neerajvohra

Are you sure Google maps need GPRS ? I thought it works just on GPS.

Does 108 MB include maps of all cities ? Hows accuracy of OVI maps based on GPS only
for major cities like Delhi, Bangalore etc ?

Google maps are 1-2mb app. How can the apps can show you the maps without gprs ? It needs both gps and gprs. Whereas ovimaps include maps dump that you can install ...I download maps of India of 108-110mb and haven't checked for other cities..but i'm sure they are included.

Accuracy : I set my route from my home to the nearby choley bhature wala and it work well :D@Delhi. What I like about ovimaps is the "voice of my own" while driving..How does it feel when your mobile say in your language " Mamu 200m ke baad left turn lena hai" I have recorded voice package of my own and it works awesome with navigation:-D:-D

Can you suggest any Symbian emulator ?

I like to test apps/games on PC before transferring to Mobile.

How to select multiple files? I have to go to options and Mark for each file. Is there anyway I can mark multiple files at one go?

One of the biggest shortcoming of the 5800 is that it doesn’t have the “Pencil Key” anymore - the key that allows you to do multiple selection, well here is a workaround

1) Download the The Pencil application here *jbak.ru/thepencil_en.php

2) Symbian Signed it and install..

You will get your pencil key to mark several files :D

I m using tunewiki . . Nice app
Tunewiki for marking files or music player ?? Its good player..but it doesn't handle big library of 1500+ songs...as it crashes most of the time :D

I have two problems with my XM. First, I do not know a space bar while selecting handwriting mode. Second, I installed OperaMini 5, but can not use. I am using BSNL GPRS, facing no problem with a default browser. Please tell me about my problems.

Today I installed UCPlayer for s60v5 and I am soooo disappointed

It can definitely play all formats like avi,mkv,mp4,wmv,3gp,3gpp with codec support of mpeg4 and h.264 too

But I went down from 1500kbps video bit rate to 250kbps bit rate and the video still lags...(in avi and mkv only)

sound is fine even at 196kbps

y do they even release these video players:x:x

Its still in beta stage..and thats why its released to cleanup the bugs..I think the nokia default video player is the best ..900kbps bitrate, 198kbps sound and 640x360 is playable easily with no lags at all.
