Nokia :: Recommendations For New Phone?
May 9, 2010
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?

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 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 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.

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?

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'd really be grateful to you if could help me out with this. I have got a locked Nokia N91. I went to a local mobile repair shop which claims to unlock branded phone. While it was being unlocked, the phone got some error for some unknown reason and now whenever I start my phone, all it says is ' phone start-up failed, contact the retailer' the repairer says the phone's IMEI is damaged which I have confirmed from various repair shops and would need some RPL file (which I haven't got any idea about) and since Nokia servers are down its not possible right now, he tells me to wait for a bit before the servers are up on the run again. I have no idea if its even true. All I want to know is Can My Phone really be Repaired? And if Yes whats the Criteria for doing so? And if i take my phone to Nokia repair shop. I am afraid they would not fix it since they haven't got a license to unlock branded phones.

I have the X6. The phone rings and I unlock the keyguard using the slider on the side of the phone and the phone stops ringing. Then in order to answer the phone I press the green button on the bottom left of the phone or I press answer call on the screen and then I can speak which I suppose sounds fair enough. But I just think that something is wrong because surely the phone should continue to make the 'ringing' noise until I actually answer the call rather than going mute just because I have unlocked the keyguard.. Am I doing something wrong or is this just how the phone works?

My phone told me i had to update it to new software.So I connected it to my computer (running win7).I started the nokia phone update software, which correctly identified my phone etc. It told me it was normal it could say the phone got disconnected.After a few minutes, it told me my phone was disconnected and I had to unplug it, unplug battery, put everything back in and press power for 1 second to resume updating. That doesn't workHard resetting with shift + space + backspace also doesn't work. The phone vibrates for a second and does nothing. I do see a little red light inside the navi-pad.

NOKIA X6. Within 2 weeks of purchase I found that there is a manufacturing defect in the phone and because of that defect my phone is getting dust every day inside the phone and on the TFT screen, being a touch screen phone dust hinders in touch screen operations. I went to Nokia care on 27.06.2010 and asked for the replacement and they told me let us check the phone we will forward your request to our Bangalore office, so kindly wait for 10 days. But yesterday I got my phone back in the very same condition even I am sure it's not even been transferred to the concern department for check and rectification because the dust on the screen was as it is.

I noticed I can't receive calls while using the gps on my x6. A call went right to voicemail. Is that normal? I'm also thinking of trying to use my x6 as an internet modem. Can I still receive and make calls while the x6 is tethered as a modem?

I have a Nokia E71 just update to the firmware 410.21.010. I did not recovered backup after the upgrade and I formatted the memory card, so it's completely clean.
Now, Nokia Email has appear as new included application so I would like to use it, but when I configure my email account (form a supported services: ovi, gmail, etc...), the wizard only configures my mobile for the typical IMAP client. It's strange, because I have a different E71 also update to this same firmare and Nokia Messaging works fine and creates the Nokia Messaging account.How could use Nokia Messaging with my E71?. Is there some way to create a Nokia Messaging account form the web instead from the phone?.

I honestly don't know whats up with my phone, I bought my E72 around 2 months ago and paired it with a no contract pay monthly deal from T-Mobile and it worked perfectly fine till now. Earlier this week I got an angry text message from someone because they had called my phone over 10 times over the course of the day and left voicemails but didn't answer. My phone hadn't rung and showed no missed calls or even voicmail messages. It sputtered a bit after that, having bad connectivity in areas that it used to perform fine before, until it reached the point where I had no connectivity anywhere! Every now and again i get some bars appear but when I make a call they quickly dissapear and the phone says no network coverage.
Obviously I guessed this must have been a screwup from T-Mobile and I spent all my morning yesterday pacing back an forth in one of their outlets as the kids behind the desk called up different people trying to figure out why it doesn't work. First thing that was checked was the phones settings, which seemed fine, then they switched the sim card assuming it had died. After that made no change they had someone over the phone reset the service settings (whatever the hell that is). They even tried the SIM card on a phone they had there and it worked perfectly. After a couple other dead ends we tried restoring the factory settings on the phone which allowed us to make one phone call to their offices landline.
But any other call didn't work, and its been that way since either having no connectivity or occasionally letting one get through but cutting of any sound from my mic. Oddly enough I get text messages and my email works fine (which i heard doesn't use WiFi, only the phone services connection) so im at wits end with this. I will me more than glad to apologize if this turns out to be a problem with T-Mobile, but after all my insisting I see no results from complaining to T mobile. I'd like to hear some feedback on what could have possibly gone wrong. My phone has not gotten wet recently and it wasn't dropped, in fact I cant think of any reason that might have sparked this problem. Sorry for turning this into a short novel, but I am desperate to find anyone who might have a clue whats going on. I plan to visit another t mobile store soon and a nokia outlet as well to see who might help but any support is more than welcome.
