I got the update. :)

Guys, please suggest a good call recording application. Even if it produces beep sound, it's fine. But I am looking for good recording quality. I tried the SmartPhoneWare CallRecorder, but the quality of the recordings was not good.

To stop the call recording beep, you need to hack your phone, install rompatcher and a patch of "stoprecordingbeep" I am using it with total recall and there is no beep in recording at all, and the quality of the recording is excellent. Other recording software skip the recording file while playing.

There is a beta version of Nokia Software update, that can update Nokia maps and other updated stuff from Software update too.

I was using CFW developed by my friend, format the phone and memory card, install the original v51 fw and the maps and other stuff were updated automatically through ovi and Nokia software update app.

Will it download the entire 100+ MB of maps or just the updates?

No problem:smile:..You can find the change log @my blog or here :

v51.0.006
- Improved Mail for Exchange
- Improved video calls

- Performance improvements

User Comment's :
- Vibration levels in order, even more than that - vibration became more clear!
- RDS is working again!
- Kinetics slightly improved
- The performance was in my opinion better than congestion or previous versions
- Phone speed has increased very much as if cpu is overclocked.
- Touch response better.
- Web browser quite smooth in scrolling and faster in loading pages.(but invalid server name bug not fixed)

will share more changes i note, soon...

1. Have you tried formatting your phone ? try doing it with *#7370#

Do backup your phone stuff like message, contacts etc. Then install the Smart movie and it will surely work. I am using smart movie cracked with v51 and it's working fine.

You can try the videocut apps from Nokia which is also working fine(freeware but in beta stages)

If you have updated the latest firmware..you can change your old product code again..so that if anything happened to ur phone..its stil under warranty :grin::grin:

If you wont change it..you phone will be still under warranty...coz Nokia repair center sucks :grin::grin:

Yeah. I was also stuck in v30 for some point, and was reluctant to void the warranty by changing the product code,so decided to give it to the Nokia care centre (had 1 yr extended warranty,so was free), for upgrade. Guess what, I found that they had changed the product code themselves, LOL..

Actually, it's useless to say that by changing your product code, it will void your warranty because the Nokia care exactly do the same as mentioned by you.

Another best part, I visited Nokia care with three 5800 handsets that were bricked by my friends while updated the CFW. We told them that we were updating the Firmware through NSU. They flash the old v30 firmware to our phones, and now, again updated the stable CFW. :-D:-D

People who really thinks that they wont hack there phone just for the cause of warranty, are missing the special features like Homescreen's, CPU overclocked, Smooth Kinetic Scrolling, various mods, awesome patches 5800xm is capable of.

Ronnie..earlier you was using v30, and updated the v51 now. Trust me, there will be a lot of difference in your current firmware/phone after formatting. I understand it will be a big hassle to install the stuff all over again but it would be worth as per my opinion.

If you have hacked your phone with hellox earlier with v30, remember that wont work anymore. You need to hack your phone with rompatcher method. Backup your contacts, messages etc and then format ur memory card, then format phone as mentioned earlier. Do post your results regarding the changes.

PS: If you still want a working Smart movie player without formatting, pm me or catch me at yahoo (you added me few days back).
