Nokia 5800 XM NAM(850/1900): Reviews, Issues, Tips, Tricks & Support Thread!!

yeah i owned both an n95-3 and an n95-4 and both of those phones had speakers that were significantly better than this 5800's speakers. i too use my phone for tunes in the shower. also while i'm folding my laundry, etc. i see all these youtube reviews about "this is a music phone" and the speakers sounds the best of any phone, but i beg to differ. they arent even close really to either of my n95's.

and i'm not playing rap or anything with heavy bass. i'm just playing the boring pop and rock songs that came with the phone. question is do i try to exchange it for another 5800? or will i just get the same result with another 5800?
 
Just to confirm, this should work for a pgone that wont boot past the white Nokia screen correct? Also do you take the battery out or leave it in?
 
When you insert aux cable into heaphone port do you get the pop up asking what type of cable it is? Could it be that connector on the aux cable is faulty? Try to move it around just a bit, maybe there is a short somewhere.
Lastly, try a different aux cable.
 
I asked this earlier in the thread but no answer so I'm going to bring it up again :)

How is it possible to keep the digital sounds (like ringers, notification sounds etc) away from the music library? I don't like that I can see my entire music library when I'm choosing a notification alert tone in Nimbuzz. I also don't consider any of those alert tones songs, so I don't want them to play in my Music Player.

Is there a workaround for this? Perhaps putting all of my music in a folder that only the Music Player can access?
 
I'm pretty sure he changed to a euro product code and that's why he is getting the update. If a real NAM v40 update was out, I'm sure we would have heard about it from several sources by now.
 
those are all items of preference though. if they are looking at the 5800, obviously they can forgo the hardware differences. those little quirks are probably what keeps the n-series apart from the xm phones.
 
hey guys, handy shell is not working with me for some reason.. it installs fine, and then there is a handy folder, but the app doesnt' open.. any ideas? thanks

oh my bad, read it really fast lol.

but ask for connection for what? on the maps app? or something else? because a lot of things ask for connections. otherwise, what livestrong listed is they only other thing i can think of
 
hey you should be able to go into your app manager and remove ovi maps and also remove nokia maps from your app list and then it should just leave you the old style ovi maps. I did the above on my n97 and that is what happened.

i'm just not seeing it with that keyboard. But you know it would be cool if they made the full screen keyboard transparent so the page with text could be seen beneath it.
 
The main thing to understand is that if your phone is asking for a "WEP" code then you might be trying to set up WEP when it might rather, for example, be a WPA network you need to configure.
 
I've done that, but I see nothing I'd call easy. Just long tutorials that reference several different web sites using multiple software tools. Is there really no single concise description anywhere?
