Nokia :: N97 Mini - Need Recommendations / Queries About The Device
Jan 29, 2010
I have a few questions on the N97 Mini. I was hoping you guys could help me with:
Touchscreen and navigation arrows: if I choose to, can I avoid to use the touchscreen and resort to the arrows in the keyboard? For example, to navigate in a web page
Battery life: what's your experience so far?
Keyboard: I understand this is very subjective, but how are you finding it? I hate to type on touchscreens. Do you find it convenient or is it annoying to open the sliding keyboard every single time?
I am considering moving from the E71 to the N97 mini, because an operator has a pretty good deal on it, and because I'd like a bigger keyboard and bigger screen, even though I understand this comes at the price of reduced battery life.

Questions:
1. How can I see al the phone and memory contenst through the PC Suite file manager when it seems all files are protected and hidden?
2. How can I move files from pc memory to mass memory so that I have more free memory on the phone? What files can be moved?
3. I am trying to install N-Gage but after installing the message reads to make a reboot: does this mean a switch off and switch on process or there is a reboot procedure?
4. Why N97 will not switch on if the sync cable is inserted in the phone?
5. Why I am not allowed to update to firmware 2.

1) When I open the camera application, open Maps and other applications why does it keep asking me if I want the bluetooth on, its annoying?
2) My contract is up with Vodafone but is it really worth upgrading to the N900. I have read the reviews and the N900 seems quicker and a bit more reliable but is it really worth tying myself into another contract for. What phones are nokia planning to bring out the future I may as well wait until a phone is realesed which really improves on what I have.
3) On the off chance does anyone know when vodafone will stop stocking the N97 and stock to the N900 only?
4) Is the rumour true about nokia stopping the N series?

Since it seems that prices for microSDHC cards have dropped quite a bit recently (you can get a 16GB Class 10 Samsung one for £25 now) I'm thinking of getting a new Class 10 one for my X3-02. Does anyone know if one will work in the X3-02, and whether I'd get the benefit of the full speed?Also, while a 32GB card is probably out of my price range at the moment, has anyone managed to get one to work in an X3-02? I notice that the X3-02 Specifications page on Nokia's UK site is still contradicting the manual by saying that the phone accepts cards up to 16GB, rather than 32. When I asked Nokia Support they said 16GB was the correct figure, but that was a couple of firmware revisions ago.

I've been all over the internet searching for my next telephone, and not been able to find an adequate cell phone chooser or website with enough information. I'm looking for a Nokia phone (I need a good antenna and a good microphone, and I trust Nokia to deliver them) that works with MetroPCS. This means that it has to be a CDMA phone.
The two features that I need are AWS (Metro requires this for operation in some east coast cities) and Bluetooth (preferably 2.0) with dial-up networking (bluetooth DUN). Camera, software, GPS, etc are all optional. I like simple, but I'm willing to deal with excess bells and whistles. Does anyone know of a phone that would fit the bill?

I have a few questions: what sort of email client does the N97 mini come with? Does it connect to email servers via IMAP idle? More specifically:
1) if I delete an email from my Nokia, will it be deleted from the server, as well?
2) when I send an email from my Nokia, is it possible to upload that email to the 'Sent' folder of my email server?
My email server supports POP, IMAP and IMAP idle - it's not an Exchange server. With the E71, the only way I found to do the two things above was with Profimail, which is a great software but doesn't integrate in the home screen.

I always have the iPhone App Store Genius recommendations turned on by default. Always worked fine until today, when I got the message "You do not currently have any recommendations". Strange, as I have 5 pages of apps. Logged into my account, turned Genius off, turned it back on again, agreed to terms and conditions etc, but the Genius recommendations page is still empty. Anyone else ever had this?

Any recommendations? Is has to be cheap and have a decent camera, but I can't find it. I only found the w508 but it looks that it was made with cheap plastic. it's not resistant enough.

I am struggling to find a new phone to replace my C902 so I need some suggestions or ill end up having another C902! My criteria:
Must have buttons - I don't mind an element of touch screen but it has to have buttons to text with
Not Smart phone - I use my phone as a phone, not a portable media device to have no use for all the extra features. My main uses are calling, texting and taking photos so I want a decent camera, minimum of 5mp.
I prefer the candy bar style which rules out a lot of phones so I am prepared to be flexible with that. From what I can see there is the Elm coming out but that seems to be a very slightly updated version of the C902, theres the Aino but from reading reviews people haven't been overly impressed with its photo capabilities. So has anyone got any other suggestions for me? I've always had SE but am considering moving to the dark side to find a phone I like/want. Doesn't necessarily have to be brand new either, im even considering looking at the C905.

I've been watching W810's photos and they are awesome but I can't find any new Walkman phone with that quality, maybe the W995 (the only one that has autofocus) Even W810 takes better photos than K810. What I need it's a secondary camera which can help me when I'm not carrying my canon. So what SE phone - especially Walkman series- would you recommend me?

I am trying to find out why the Desktop Software is recommending me to update my OS7 version, and also to downgrade my BBM software. Whenever I go to Device->Software Updates on the phone, it says my Blackberry is upto date (7.0 Bundle 1315). And I already installed the new BBM update a few weeks ago(version 6.0.0.129). Note my carrier is T-Mobile. Can anyone inform me why I get update recommendations on the Desktop program and not the phone?

I just bought a brand new E72 and am wondering why there is no current firmware available for this device. I just checked at the Nokia website "Can I update my Nokia device software" which says that there is no software available for this device. This is the same answer you get when entering an invalid product code, meaning that there is not even the SW revision displayed which is currently installed (021.024).
I called Nokia in Germany and they also were not able to tell me why for this PC no FW is available.Does anybody have an idea why for this product code there is no current FW available (I have seen that there is 23.002 or at least 22.007 available for every device).Does Nokia also sell "second quality" devices where no FW update is possible. The lack of knowledge and communication even when talking to Nokia directly makes me wonder.

I had Nokia comes with music on a N95 last year and all was going well until my contract was up and I changed my phone for a 5800 CWM edition. I followed the instructions on how to activate my new phone and the Nokia music store said that the phone was already registered. I have contacted Nokia who suggested creating a new account (which didn't work). i am currently waiting on Nokia to get back to me but this is a very slow process. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

As of yesterday my usb cable for my N95 8GB was working as it should. Now I get an error message 'USB device not recognised.... unkown device'
First thing I did was source another cable, 3 in fact. Same problem.
I then reinstalled Ovi Suite. Error messages appeared on most of the re-installation..
Nokia connectivity cable driver is one example.
I tried this on 3 different pc's... same problem
By a process of elimination ... Its not my pc, its not the cable. Is it my phone? If yes, could it be repaired?

Who's got one and what they like?. I don't trust "reviews" any more I'm only interested in 1st hand experience quite frankly the 6710 is a joke and the E72 seems to be the only thing that compares (on paper at least). So what's peoples opinions, worth getting one?

N97 Mini vs E72..Not sure if i should post this question just here or post it both here and in the E series sub forum, i'll post it in both just in case....
N97 Mini Pros
Touch Screen
Bigger Screen
Fold out keypad
30fps Video (VGA) quality
5mp Carl Zies lens
Dual Flash (flash for video and flash for photos)
E72 Pros
600mhz cpu
Mega 3G (Next G access)
Symbian 3rd (More apps available eg coreplayer)
Bigger Battery/Longer life.
Now I have the E72, but i've been trying to talk my wife into having the N97 mini, but she says why don't I have the N87 and she can have my E72, well for me, it's literally a coin toss, they both have features i Like, both have the mandatory 5mp camera, both have wifi, compass, gps all the high end features... but the N97 mini offers a nice big keyboard where as the E72 does not but the E72 offers extra frequencies which work with high speed on other networks.So for me it comes down to build quality and i can't fault the E72, in all honesty if I had of just bought an N97 mini (instead ot the E72 just 1 week ago) i'd probably wish to keep the N97 mini.So i have an E72 1 week old,, and my wife's contract ends in only a couple of months, so now were looking at an upgrade for her.have no idea which i prefer, anyone got both or played with both the E72 and the N97 mini, what's your advice? I can't really fault the E72, im scared the N97 mini will break in 10 minutes.
