What's your opinion about 5800 xpress music

should i get one or not ?

I am a 5800 owner...I will say this much, sift through the many topics in this forum.  I have had some issues with my 5800 mostly stability issues.  Most issue are mostly annoying and nothing too serious.  I will say ditto to the music portion of the phone...it is simply the best in terms of sound.  The speaker are loud and pretty clear for a cell phone and when listening through headphones it sounds almost like a dedicated MP3 player, although it could be a little louder.  For the money you will not find nearly as many features and capabilities in one device.  
Again, the 5800 has some known issues and you can read through the topics to get an idea of what kind of issues there are and remember not every phone has issues.  For the money...I recommend it.

  • What is your opinion about IDEs?

    I've heard different opinions about using IDEs like Jbuilder, Symantec VisualCafe, Microsoft J++...
    Some people think that to program in java using a simple text editor is a prehistoric and a very hard way and they prefer using IDEs.
    Other people think that IDEs are not good tools to program in java because they add a lot of unnecessary code and because you have more control for the code if you program all by yourself. These persons maybe think that the only utility of IDEs is their help.
    I would like to know all your opinion about this.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I think it depends on the context if one may use an IDE or not.
    There are 3 things to be considered:
    1) processor speed
    2) application type
    3) lazyness
    ad 1:
    If you want to use an IDE, you must have a powerful processor.
    In fact, all major JAVA IDEs are written entirely in JAVA.
    So a Pentium 3 or K7 and faster processors are advisable.
    ad 2:
    When you write servlets or small text based applications with only a few classes, an notepad like nedit for UNIX systems is in fact the best solution.
    A huge JAVA program with many screens (SWING or AWT) for instance cannot be easily developed with a small editor. Here an IDE should be considered as a must.
    (Unless you are really a hardcore Java specialist)
    The same approach can be applied to bean development.
    ad 3:
    IDE come with many pre-constructed classes and concepts. Developing a client/server or multi-tier application can be an easy task if you spent some money on an IDE.
    Other advantages of IDE are built-in tutorials and programming enhancements (when you type the name of an object the IDE shows you immediately all its methods for example). So if you are a beginner or one of those people that thinks that a programm cannot be done without development platforms like Microsoft Visual XXX, JAVA IDEs are a logical conclusion.

    IMHO, GraniteDS is the most fully implemented open source AMF solution out there (meaning, it's the closest you can get to LCDS without having to shell out the big bucks). A couple things that come to mind are built in support for lazy loading and data push.
    The downside is that documentation is sparse, and it's difficult to jump into unless you have had some experience with other AMF solutions.

  • 5800 Xpress Music - Supporting software install fa...

    Hello,
    I'm using Windows XP SP3 and the latest version of PC Suite downloaded on Nokia website. My phone is a 5800 Xpress Music and I did upload the firmware yesterday.
    I'm running into trouble to connect my phone to the PC and transfer data (any kind). I made a clean install of the latest version of PC Suite, then connected my phone to one of the USB ports of my PC and selected "PC Suite" on the phone when asked for connectivity type. Windows recognized the device and installed drivers successfully. When I started PC Suite, it recognized the phone too, but it said that it needed to install some "connectivity supporting software" or something like that. There was also a message saying that I should accept every request appearing on the phone. However,after a few seconds, the installation window said "Failed to install supporting software" without any further explanation. There was absolutely nothing appearing on the screen of the phone. I've tried to install the supporting software again by right-clicking on the phone icon, selecting options and chosing the appropriate action, but the installation keeps failing.
    Therefore, I cannot sync any data between my PC and the phone. Also, if I start Nokia Music and choose  "multimedia transfer" connectivity mode, the phone appears in the interface, but when I try to drag and drop any song on the phone icon, the transfer immediately fails.
    Please tell me what I should do next (I already uninstalled and re-installed the whole Nokia PC software suite twice, which is quite boring and time consuming)
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi there. Unexpectedly things started working better (but not yet perfect).
    I HAD been trying updating the drivers related to the phone yesterday, to no effect. But after giving up and disconnecting the phone I saw a disabled/broken device driver in the device manager tree (under portable devices) and deleted it. Then today I attached the phone by bluetooth and saw NOS start up and say that it HAD installed the supporting software!
    In the System event queue there are a few messages about drivers being installed:
    Event Source: WPDClassInstaller
    Drivers were successfully installed for device WPD_NOKIA_73fd2114_0d73_49c3_9c65_1a2b2c7f6eba.
    Event Source: WPDClassInstaller

    MTP WPD Driver has started successfully.
    Photos, music and messaging seems to have synchronized nicely. Contacts have synchronized with Outlook, but the Calendar is failing to synchronize. After a Sync All I'm getting the message:
    "Sync cancelled//Completed syncing the following content types: Contacts and Photos and Messaging.//Failed to sync the following content types: Calendar and Notes.//Reconnect the USB cable to your device or connect vis Bluetooth. Then try syncing again."
    I get a similar message syncing calendar alone, with the error code 80043bd4 attached. 
    Same results if I'm using USB or Bluetooth.
    Got reckless and upgraded to Ovi Maps 3.0, which proceeded cleanly.
    So partly solved, but calendar (important for me) still not syncing.
    cheers...

  • Not Enough Memory [Nokia 5800 Xpress Music]

    Hello,
    i have a nokia 5800 xpress music mobile phone.
    recently, i've been facing an error while trying to change my ringtone from the profiles
    when i tap on the screen on the ringing tone tab in general profile (or any other profile), an pop-up tells me the following "not enough memory to display all ringing tones, only read-only memory tones will be displayed"
    then, when i tap again , the ringing tones menu open but for sure not listing all of my music files !!
    i thought it's a firmware problem, i updated my 5800 to the latest v30 firmware, but the problem still persists.
    please, feed me back
    your help will be highly appreciated, thanks in advance
    Best regards,
    Solved!

    take out your memory card and consider the first two options. make sure you have a back up and read carefully 
     1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
    Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345
    2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)
    3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    hard reset - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. ) For Nokia N97 (unofficial version but works) is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen.
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

  • New 5800 xpress music battery problem

    soo here goes...
    i got dis new new 5800 xpress music just 2 days back...i fully charged it and didnt insert da sim yet....so da phone was actually just on standby mode continuosly.....and yet only after 24 hours it showed battery dead....i again recharged it fully....and again after 24 hours it showz battery dead....wat am i supposed to do?? i faed a similar problem wid my n95 and hence changed da phone and nw dis thing;s again acting up......HIGHLY IRRITTATING!!
    wat am i supposed to do....fight with da dealers for giving me a problematic battery or sumthin??

    Here is a strong possibility of what the problem is - I have noticed how easy it is to leave some application still running when you shut it down by using the slide switch.  Maybe maps or bluetooth - anything really.  Before you use that slide switch; display the main menu and look carefully for any item with a little circle near it.  Any you find should be turned off by clicking onto that item and then exiting from it by clicking "exit".  Now check that menu again to make sure that all items are now turned off.
                   As a separate precaution; if you keep your 5800 in a flexable pouch; you will find that there is plenty of room for a spare battery (only about £5).  The spare would be needed on a long flight or when using the unit as a satnav if not plugged into the cars cigar lighter

  • Problem with Nokia 5800 Xpress Music

    Hello. I have a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music for about a year now and been taking great care of it. I don't know why but a while ago it started freezing at times when i would try to turn on the camera..had to multiple times restart the phone and remove the battery in order to make it work (In the open applications menu it would show the camera running but you wouldn't be able to use it). Then i noticed that the two touch buttons it has in the main screen (dialing and phonebook shortcuts) wont work either, no matter how many times i press them nothing happens. Same goes for the Green and Red button on the left and the right side of the phone (Accept/Decline buttons), they won't work either when i'm on the main screen (wallpaper), they do work in the main menu though. I tried resetting my phone to manufacturer settings but nothing happened. What is wrong with my phone? Can anybody help me with it very please?

    @guilty_gr
    Welcome to the forum!
    When you say restored "factory settings" I don't know whether you mean that you backed up essential data then keyed in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by yourself); I would remove any memory card first and see if any difference before restoring device.
    Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

  • Display problem in 5800 xpress music

    I had purchased a 5800 xpress music in April 2010.  For the last two months there is some problems in the display.  Sometimes, the display is gone and only lines are seen, when the key pad lock on.  This pevails for long time.  Due to this, I am unable to make any call or identify the incoming call.  Any solution?

    What version of Firmware ? Check for any updates thru' the OVI Suite..
    If that doesn't solve the issue, you may try the Soft Reset by dialing    *#7370#     followed by 12345 (Default security code) when prompted. If you have set your own code, enter that instead... Note that the Soft Reset will erase all data from the phone, so back-up your data before doing that...

  • 5800 Xpress Music speaker function

    Hi sarahdolker,
    Getting "Expired Certificate" message while trying to install some application or games is due to Symbian security consideration
    Guides
    1. Try re-setting phone clock back by 2 years or so. But this often does not solve the problem in most cases.
    2. There are 3rd party tweaking tricks to make ure fone to install using hack method, however, Nokia forums does not entertain this and will never guide u in the negative side of the road.
    My best solution is, for u to have a visit at http://store.ovi.com and download some free and also purchase apps and games, even widgets for ure usage. The items from OVI store are pre-signed legally by vendors, so u do not need to worry about 3rd party signing issues.

  • Changing MTU in 5800 Xpress Music

    Is there any way to change the Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) on a 5800 Xpress Music phone? My Broadband provider (TalkTalk) requires an MTU of 1432 and from searching the net I believe the 5800 has a default value of 1500.
    This is causing my phone to have problems when browsing the internet with some site not loading at all.
    Ordinarily this could be changed on the router, but unfortunately my Dynamode R-ADSL-C4-W-G1 does not allow this setting to be changed and on my computer I had to edit the registry value.
    The 5800 has the most recent 51.0.006.235.10 firmware.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    What version of Firmware ? Check for any updates thru' the OVI Suite..
