Hi Guys,

Got if for 18900 with bill & warranty from Nokia Priority..I m not having any issues with the keypad yet..This is my first Nseries device and I am loving it...

Need ur help if anyone can guide me with the following:
1. Should I update to the latest firmware v31 and is it really worth it?

2. The import month on the Box is Sept 2008..Have I bought from the old stock or is it that the stock reaches the market after 3-4 months of the month of import????

3. Which r the most important apps I shud install on it??

I wud really appreciate if u can help me out with this..Thanks in advance...

1. yes

2. yup

3. check the symbian thread...

Congrats .... N82 is so cool

Yo Yo congrats man " now u r my idle " mee to N82 Black holder

congrats dude...

Thank You Krates, damngoodman, Coool

I m really happy 2 join the N82 club..

Can anyone please shed some light on my query no. 2.

The other problem that I am facing is that I am not able 2 install the Ovi Suite and Nokia PC Suite 2gether in the PC...
Why is it so?? Is there any way with which I can install both in the computer...

Reg Q2 :

It doesn't matter reg the package date as u can update your firmware whenever needed.
V31 is faster compared to V20 so u can update to it at some nokia care.

Btw, Welcome to the N82 club

Can I update the firmware on my own??

D

Yes You can update the firmware yourself by using the Nokia PC Suite's Nokia Phone Software Updater (PSU). Make sure you have a broadband connection with sufficient limit as v31 is close to 115MB. Make sure your phone is fully charged and is in General Profile mode. When you've decided to update the phone's firmware, you shouldn't be using the phone at all while the process is happening. Ignore any SMSs / call(s) that you might receive until the firmware update is completed successfully and you have removed all connection to the PC/laptop. If you have never done this before, I suggest you do it with a friend who has already done it at least once successfully or the best bet would be always to give it to an NPD to have it updated. It shouldn't take more than half an hour.

Btw, Welcome to the N82 club. I am still on v30 due to lack of time to sit with my phone on my home PC.

Ya, but there is some amt of risk involved in this.

Since u have warranty i suggest u to go to some nokia care centre and get it done for free

I depends on his net speed also.

Sorry for not mentioning.. That is, if you have a 2mbps broadband connection.

Congrats

wonderful @ yogi7272

dont start about N85 plz , this is N82 club : then N85 is really cool one i knew i wish i could have N85 in my left hand & N82 in my right !!!

N82 holder , yesterday i had severe hangs & crashes , after that i installed the "handy taskman" then i came to knew that the phone occupies many app in the RAm , but any way N82 has more RAm , but still some app like gallery , maps . etc.. r running after normal stand by mode shows ,, please some one report that same crashes had before ???

I wish n85 had the hardware platform and xenon flash of n82 .. anyways update n82 to ver 31 and then hack it ..

is there any one hacked the N82 here ???

@utsav - How cum u got a firmware v30 in ur N82..I got a v20 (old firmware)...Can u please tell me what is d date of Manufacturing and Import on the box of ur N82...

What is hacking? How do you hack a phone??? Sorry I am a noob in the Symbian arena...I have installed F-Secure antivirus but it is a trial version...How do I get to install an unlimited one??

u dont need an ANTI virus for the N82

V20 is good one but , still u have lot of minus with V20 it is slow and little hangs

V31 is latest and fast , good speed , call end bug is really fixed

check you tube about hacking N82

Does hacking void the warranty and what is its benefit???

not much sure abt hacking !! but u can update the firmware thats going to be better

install "handy taskman"

Its jan 2009

Dammit...

I think I bought from the old stock...I visited 4 shops and everyone said that N82 is not available and out of stock before going 2 Nokia Priority where it was available. I bought it from there...This means that fresh stock must not be available there as well and I ended up buying from the old stock instead....

But now I am extremely sad & disappointed.....What 2 do?

dont worry uppalpankaj say what !! whats ur firmware Version when u bought

Dear my firmware version is 20.0.062 and the date of the firmware is 28-02-08

@ utsav

what firmware version u had when u bought ???

No need to worry .. just update the firmware using nokia software updater .. just use reliable internet connection

I think the firmware in utsav's N82 is v30

^^^ he is not worried abt the firmware ,, the manufacturing date is more concerned !!1

Dont worry uppalpankaj its nothing , i bought in DEC/08 i had V20 , but u know many of them feared of V30 ,, u r lucky

I will be updating the firmware definitely but u know when u r spending so much amt of money, u do feel like getting the best in every aspect...

@damngoodman, yogi ..Thanks a lot 4 ur replies..

Have u updated the firmware?

Which software DVD did u get in the package??? Was it Nokia Ovi or NSeries PC Suite???

I got the NSeries one..

ya i updated the firmware to V31 ,, its so good trust me

damngoodman999 said:

Tell us abt the music quality & battery life. Some were saying battery life improved with V31..is it true?

Ya thats DAMN true , battery life is really gr8 2x performance for battery

Music quality still the same , but speaker quality slightly improved.

,,, say abt the crashes !!!

Nice.....

I'm also N82 noob..& yesterday I got it ...my FW version is

V20.0.062
28-02-08
RM-313
Nokia N82 (25.01)

and I update the map in ver 2.0 which was 1.2 and load the indian map..everything in my phone is old...there is no Micro SD card adopter..Nokia priority said they stooped giving this with current phone box..only this stuff is updated.

I am not update it in v31 anyway...there is a bug which jump next 2days if you activate the alarm...I read it at "Nokia Discussions"

Any one face any problem about lens flare...by reflecting flash light by bouncing from Jwellery/metal object from subject of Photograph. The subject is normally lit by a Tube Light no other light source come against the lens opening.

When I open the Camera app by using the swapping lever it starts in everything 'Auto' mode...Is there anyway to start it as my desired mode such as Landscape/User defined mode.

As I shoot many candid shot it is a little bit annoying every time go through shooting menu.

There is softie Panoman pre-installed on the mem-card..how can I save it ?
If I format the card isn't I lose it ?

Please anyone...Thanks...

P.S:- After a small (calling or surfing [Airtel Edge] not more than 10-15 min) use there is no sign of drooping the battery indicator but If I plug the charger it takes really long time to reach "Battery Full" state...any one experienced such thing ?

First of all congrats on ur new purchase & welcome to the N82 club

Panoman can be installed seperately ...u can search any 3rd party site u can get it but its not a freeware.

No you can't save the scene mode setting everytime u close ur camera those settings will get reset.

Guys am facing a strange problem. Yesterday i had 400mb of songs on my 4gb card and evrything was working fine but today when i filled about 2gb the fone started responding slowly to memory card related functions. The music player is giving "General:System Error" and not playing any songs. Though i can play the music thru file manager but the file manager is hanging a lot. I formatted the card but same problem on filling it again. I think the memory card i bought is fake. What say guys?

V31 has some minor updates & some major issues so who all r on V30 don't think of updating it until another new update is available.

btw I also wanna know the cost of 8GB Sandisk memory card..

8GB kingston costs 1500/- at S.P.Road,Bang. with 5 yr warranty
8GB Transend costs 1300/-
No idea abt sandisk

Just now returned frm some mobile shops. Sandisk 8gb class 2 card is 1400Rs here ,duh. On ebay i found a class 4 sandisk is 1189 including shipping and bill (from a powerseller having 100%feedback on over 3000 deals )with 5 yr manufacturers warranty and he also says that we can register the serial of the card on sandisk's site so its very trustable. Am getting it frm thr.

ya sandisk is the best one for mobiles , especially the N82

in this forum some one used the sandisk 8GB for an year wit N82 , he says that the card is gr8

I am also a satisfied user of sandisk 8gb micro SD card with N82 from the time I purchased it in September 2008.

Joined the Nokia N82 Group...So many forum members are having N82...

I haven't experienced any freezes after upgrading the device 2 v31...Infact it has become better responsive...

Battery backup also seems 2 b better...Haven't tested the sound quality though...

Congrats uppalpankaj

And same here, v31 is rock solid. No freezes or hangs. Battery,sound,speed and even picture quality has improved. Maps etc. work fine.
Probably v31 is the best firmware among the three. And its fully hackable to boot

@damngoodman999 : I have been using it for more than a week dude, and its working fine. As for the apps, check out the symbian thread (i have installed most of it)

I suggest you backup your contacts etc. and do a format. If the problem is still not fixed , reinstall your firmware.

Thanks a lot 4 ur replies guys..Problem solved after removing and reinserting the card...

Just installed n-gage application (upgraded the one which was included in the phone)...can play only trial versions...Is it possible 2 play the full version games??

i tried to install the N gage 2 games ,, by the time of installing the ngage games it says
"file corrupted" ,, its says for all games

Any one know on the BinPda some thing to hack the Ngage games

You need to use the cracked ngage installer to install cracked games.
Also for that you should hack your phone first.

Grats on your N82 mate.

Cracked games can only b installed on hacked cells. Is it so?

I am also proud owner of N82 Black for two weeks.
Now the default screen guard is started peeling off. How you people are protecting the screen from scratches? Any good accessories for protecting the phone?

Cracked games can be installed only on Cracked N-Gage Application. For Installing the Cracked N-Gage Application, you need to first hack your phone.

U r on which firmware??

For protection I got my cellphone pasted with a lamination sheet..This is different from lamination...In this a plastic sheet is glued 2 the entire cellphone body including the screen...It just cost 100 bucks...This is giving a gud protection...Apart from this I am using a Nokia leather cover also which I had got for free when I had bought my N82 4m Nokia Priority....

Another thing what I m noticing now is that my N82's battery is getting drained quite quickly...It does not last 4 more than 1.5 - 2 days even with very moderate usage..What must b the cause?????

Update firmware and keep WLAn scanning off!

mediator said:
Update firmware and keep WLAn scanning off!

I have already updated the firmware 2 v31.. Ya may b its because of WLan I guess..The wifi is always on and every now & then it does keep scanning...

hey man first of all congrats on the n82...welcome to the club...

i have been using n82 since sep...i have v21 firmware...is it necessary to upgrade to v31??i am a bit scared honestly to do it myself because i heard that some people got their phone bricked...screen flashing & all..did anyone here update it at home?This is my first n series phone?last phone i had was nokia 6600 which i used for 4 years...& i heard that nokia service centres take ages to upgrade...is it true?

Updated it at home.. Just like thousands of other people! Its safe! Just dont unplug phone!

Me too updated it at home...V31 must be surely better than v21...
Just connect the phone to the USB port and start the Software Updater from PC Suite...Ensure that the phone is fully charged before connecting it 2 the PC...The firmware will be downloaded...It is about 117 MB...After it has been downloaded, the new firmware will be tranferred 2 the phone by the updater...

Very important: Don't disconnect the phone or fiddle with the USB Cable or do anything that will disconnect the phone from the PC while this process is going on especially when the new firmware is being loaded to the phone.

D

And most importantly leave the phone in General Profile. Take backup. The whole process after downloading the firmware should take approximately 5 to 10 minutes. During which your screen might be blank for the whole process. Just dont panic or press any buttons on the phone. Until the update is successful.

Thanks guys..will try it myself first & then see...

Is there any way that when I click photos with my N82 cam, then the date on which the photo is being taken gets stamped upon it??? I really want this...

This feature is present in my K750i..How 2 get this in my N82?? R there any third party apps for this purpose??

The filename is created by date..

kalpik said:

No I am not talking about the filename dude...I want that the date should be embossed (stamped) on the photo itself after clicking....So just by seeing the photo only, one can come 2 know on which date it was taken...

Is this possible in N82???

That is known as date imprint function. I think thr must be some app which can do it. I also need that but too busy to search

Arey bhai so many ppl r using 8GB cards wid thr N82. Even 16GB works fine. 16GB costs 3.2 to 3.5k so not worth it. N82 will support upto 32GB so get 8GB now which is worth the price.

Thanks..I will get the 8 GB one..

Dude its microSD (i.e microSDHC) for the N82, not MMC. Don't get it mixed up.

From where can I get 8 GB card for my N82?? Is it available at outlets such as Nokia Priority and Mobile Store etc.??

I wont suggest u to buy that coz its class 2 rated card and it will be much slower than class 4 rated card and ur phone will become less responsive too so i would suggest you to pay a bit more and get this one *cgi.ebay.in/Verbatim-Micro-SD-HC-8...3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66:1|65:1|39:1|240:1318

Is there any other way?

Class 2: 2 MB/s - 13x
Class 4: 4 MB/s - 26x
Class 6: 6 MB/s - 40x
Higher class has faster performance and naturally more expensive.

And for the license expired error, just set phone date a year or more back and install. After installation set ur phone date back to normal.

if u want stereo wid mic then thr is no choice except for the nokia earphones or any bluetooth headset .

I have dropped my N82 from chest height on a concrete floor some months back. Except for slight scratches on the bottom near the mic, the phone was working absolutely fine. Till yesterday. Yesterday while picking it up from a 40cm high table, it fell on a tiled floor. I was cool, since I had dropped on worse occasions. But to my dismay, the display has gone for a toss. It is slightly triangularly negative at the top and lots of lines running in between. Will this be covered under warranty? My phone is 6 months old.

U must take it 2 the service centre. It must be definitely covered under warranty...

No .physical damage is not covered under warranty

Try nokia step counter & sports tracker. Super cool apps for n82. I found these two very handy. U can use creative ep 630 with n82. It would give u a very good sonic experience. or better try to get sennheiser cx 400 from abroad. I am using cx400 with n85 and this combination just blows any other phone away. U can get sandisk 8gb class 4 micro sd card for as less as 1k with bill.It also comes with a tiny usb card reader which is very handy for large data transfers.

Enjoy ur n82. Its a great phone

^^^ its gr8 that now u tell N82 is gr8 phone thankx , u r N85 fan

in some ways i too love N85 in menus and ringtones much better than N82 , then are u still using N85 ??

^^^^
Dude, i was the very first one on this forum who was a n82 fanboy. I have used it for more than 10 months. Even had a fight with a se fanboy here regarding k850i. We all know the fate of that phone. Can u imagine people comparing n82 with that **** !

n85 is better than n82 in many ways. Sound quality being the foremost factor. Xenon flash , hardware platform and candybar form factor is where n82 scores over n85.

Btw i am fan of both n82 & n85.

When there was actual physical damage, it was working well. But now the impact was very less, and I still cannot understand why the display was not working. Why would this not be covered under warranty.

N73 and N82 are the most succesfull phones thats y they r very common.

ya N82 is the most successful phone...It is simply awesome...I am happy that I didn't get the 5800 touchscreen 2 which I got a little inclined in between upon its release..But then I went ahead and bought N82 as thought initially...

I have clicked some photos and they r truly amazing. Infact, some of the photos clicked with N82's cam feel superior than the ones clicked by my 5 MP Sony Digicam. N82 is a truly converged device...

before 2 years back N73 is in the Top man , now its N82 may be N82 had launched before 1.5 yrs back but now its getting stronger

the only complaint in N73 is joystick , Sony ericsson K810i was serious competitor to N73 @ that time

convergence- check this - *3lib.ukonline.co.uk/sshow/ss75.html

The best converged device .. N82

Come on pal its like bone fracture. Looks good on the outside but messed up inside.

Most likely some electronic circuits broke inside.
Get a protective case or some thing similar to avoid such troubles in the future.

Can I get repaired elsewhere for less? 3.5k seems too tall an ask..

deepakchan said:

Since physical damage is not covered under warranty u better do it via a third party. 3.5k is clearly overcharging for something for all we might know a simple loose connection.
Give it to a trusted repair shop and if the problem is not fixed then give it to nokia service center.
Best of luck

A bit offtopic, is it possible to run flash themes on N82? If yes, someone please tell me how.

Secondly, I am not able to update my phone. After about 15-20% download it gives a warning which says something like, "connect your phone directly and not via the usb port."

The Nokia N82 on a Belated Pedestal

Tucked away in my office for days on end, exploring the frontiers of technology, at least in the smartphone world, it's exciting to tinker with the latest touchscreen smartphone, be it Nokia 5800 or N97 or Samsung Omnia HD. In such circumstances, having a phone throw up weird errors or having to rebuild the OS isn't a big problem and is, after a fashion, kind of fun. Life on the bleeding edge, as it were.

But heading out into the 'real world', as I've been doing for the past week, a world inhabited by parents and cousins and grandchildren (not mine), it's best to fall back on hardware and software that's going to be 100% reliable. In every respect.

Out and about in inclement weather

Which is why I headed off with the trusty Nokia N82. I know, I know, I was a bit dismissive of the N82's styling when it first appeared, but as time has gone on the phone has become more and more appealing. So a bit of a U-turn from yours truly, but:

At the time I think we all thought that Nokia's OMAP2-based graphics acceleration was going to be standard in all following phones, or maybe improved upon.
At the time we all thought that Xenon flash was going to be retained for at least some future models.
At the time we expected that the protective lens shutter would also be standard.
And at the time the VGA video recording, neatly focussed for action within a metre or two, was also expected to continue, as it had on the N95 and N95 8GB (plus E90) before it.
And, as such, there was no reason to lift the N82 up onto a pedestal, since future devices would obviously exceed it.

Curiously, the machinations of Nokia's platform plans has meant that the likes of the N95 and N82 haven't been equalled since, with the N79, N85 and N96, plus the 5800 XpressMusic, all lacking in most of these ways. No graphics acceleration (which makes a big difference when playing back video and some games), no Xenon flash (the only other smartphone with this is the [also S60-powered] Samsung G810, which is a let down in other areas), the N96 and 5800 both lack any kind of lens protection, and all bar the 5800 have had their video recording crippled by being focussed on infinity.

N82 5mp camera and Xenon flash

To all of which, all I've got to say is 'Gah!'. At AAS, we often get accused of being Nokia fanboys, but the truth is that we speak our minds and that we divulge honest opinions, with this rant being one of them(!)

And so it was that I headed into the British spring (rain, cloud, cold, gloomy/cold public buildings) with the N82. And, to be honest, there isn't another phone/smartphone in the world that could have done everything I did with it during the week.

* I took over a hundred photos, all in 'challenging' conditions. When you're trying to capture ad-hoc moments in the life of an extended family (such as here when distant-living cousins cane together to play), you've got to be extremely quick (shot set up times often need to be less than 3 seconds) and you've got to take whatever conditions you get given. In this case, cloudy gloom outdoors and indoor scenes where the lights often needed to be on. Under these circumstances, the N82's Xenon flash was invaluable - when you've tried Xenon you really can't go back - it freezes action and illuminates like nothing else on earth. The way the N82's camera launches when the shutter slide is opened also makes for a quick experience (though I know the N78 and N85 also match this).

Xenon-lit gloomy museum scene
A typical snap from the trip. This is inside a railway museum, with the reflections off the foreground raincoat showing how dark it really was. And yet the illumination is very bright with Xenon flash. A dual LED flash would have produced much patchier illumination and would also have shown blurring where the children were moving.

* When there's no choice of weather conditions, it's sometimes needed to use your smartphone in the rain. As I've documented before, the N82 seems better than most smartphones at surviving abuse and (here) even light rain. The steam train photo below was taken in light drizzle, for example. No worries about damage to the screen or fascia.

Steaming away in the drizzle

* Back in the family living room, it was the work of 10 seconds to plug the TV out lead into the N82 and give everybody a slide and movie show on the communal 40" TV screen. I don't think everybody could believe that all the images and videos were taken on a phone, though of course you can tell if you know what to look for. Certainly in 'good enough' territory though. The N79, N85 and N96 would have produced blurrier videos on the whole and wouldn't have been half as slick when streaming media through the TV out cable.

TV out in use

* We visited a fair number of venues in attempts to keep the children occupied and Nokia Maps came into its own - having a full real time, voice-guided navigation system on your phone and ready for action in seconds is a huge boon. I also had access to my nephew's TomTom sat-nav unit in the car and we tried the two systems in parallel much of the time. Interestingly, despite the extra (12?) receiver capability, the TomTom cut out several times in terms of the shown route, while the N82 and Nokia Maps allowed me to press on regardless, with no downtime, even when going under bridges or in tree-lined areas - the N82's GPS antenna really is well positioned (especially compared to the travesty that is the positioning on the N95 and N95 8GB). Yes, I know Nokia's online Maps search servers are currently broken for UK (seven character) postcodes, so I had to work around that, but even so the tool did the job for me.

* At night, to get to sleep, and first thing in the mornings, I amused myself by catching up with audio podcasts, streamed over A2DP to my Bluetooth wireless headset. I guess this bit is just showing off to iPhone readers(!) and I could equally well have used a 3.5mm wired headset, but going 'wireless' in this area is still pretty cool and almost every Symbian OS-powered phone now has A2DP so why not use it?

* One family member wanted a cropped version of one of my photos in a hurry (on their phone) and using the N82's built-in image editing it was again the work of a few seconds to crop the picture as needed and then fire it off via Bluetooth. Under a minute elapsed from the ten year old asking and the crop arriving on their device. Not wishing to bash the iPhone yet again, but this still has no basic image editing facilities and no Bluetooth file/object transfer and the same applies to many other popular touchscreen phones.

I'm not blind to the N82's weaknesses, of course. In this case, the smallish and relatively dim screen, which is a limitation when trying to catch up with news in Web and when trying to show off media on-device. I'm not counting the keypad as a weakness anymore, note, because I've found that it's actually more tactile than many other phone keypads and as a result I get less miskeys.

N82 controls and keys

Stability is also a factor when dealing with 'classics' like the N82, with their firmware now (e.g. at v31) extremely mature and crashes almost unheard of. In comparison, my S60 5th Edition-powered 5800 has been locking up several times a day (I know, I know, I push it quite hard) and this was another factor in my switching back to the N82 until Nokia get round to fixing the 5800 up a little more.

Am I right to put the N82 (belatedly) up on a pedestal? Comments welcome.

Hi guys, i am switching back to n82 after going through n95 8gb > n85 ..

Welcome back

lol

Ya dude, go on laugh loud. Although there is nothing wrong with n85 apart from pathetic build quality. It is much better than n82 in many regards but u cant keep using it for a long time without breaking it. Lets see, have any idea abt n86 availability date? Just read a blog yesterday where someone was mentioning that its going to start shipping soon. I think i might wait a bit and see. If n86 is out early then surely i am getting it instead of n82.

and ya n85 cam is not as good as n82 .. and those dual leds are crap .. only good for torch purpose.. lets hope those third generation dual leds in n86 will be some worth .. from now on multiple phone theory is the way to go with n82 being the primary device ..

ohh am not saying n85 is worse than N82 but what makes it bad is the build quality so me too sticking with N82 until something worthy comes up

Since spare part is not available,nokia care center is replacing my n85,hence i think its good to wait and see if there is some improvement in n85 before going for n82 .. Also i dont want to get n82 now that n86 is coming in a month or two. Lets see.

utsav said:

Utsav- believe me , n85 is much better than n82 in many regards. Just a bit inferiour camera, lack of xenon and shoddy build quality is n85' main probs. And the omap platform advantage does not make much of a difference for everyday tasks that s60 phone does apart from few games, a few app that support it and maybe video playback but i have not experienced any difference between the two devices as far as video playback is concerned.

Again n82 is great phone, no doubt abt it.

Ok guys, i am back with my n82. I got the replacement for my n85 which was faulty as well. Needed the phone badly hence bought n82. It feels so so solid holding in hands comparing to n85. The camera on n82 is surely better than n85. No need to tell abt xenon. The most interesting part is music quality through cx400 is same as on n85 and its a bit louder as well. I got the gps lock within a min. Gps on n82 rocks.

Overall i have to say n82 is indeed much much better than n85.

The camera on n82 is surely better than n85. No need to tell abt xenon. The most interesting part is music quality through cx400 is same as on n85 and its a bit louder as well. I got the gps lock within a min. Gps on n82 rocks.

Overall i have to say n82 is indeed much much better than n85.

So finally u accepted ,, :!:

Yup dude..i accept .. anyways i was the first one with n82 here on this forum raving about it since dec 2007 ..n85 build quality sucks .. no doubt abt it ..Not even mighty n95 8gb can match n82 ..period..and changing it for n95 8gb and n85 was a big mistake .. candybar form factor rocks ..

Is there new firmware available for N82 .. it think they ve launched 2 days ago ??

The N82 is a gr8 all round phone and no phone can challenge its cam in the 5 MP category. A gr8 all rounder.

@yogi..Infact when u had changed over 2 N95 and then 2 N85, I was wondering that why did u do this in the first place when u had a real masterpiece in your hand in the form of N82. Welcome back 2 the N82 club...

@uppalpankaj- Actually after using n82 for 10 months, i needed a change but then as i said, u cant change n82 for any other handset.

Is ver 31 that much better than ver 30 firmware. My n82 is november manufactured and has ver 30 installed. Should i upgrade it to ver 31? My net connection is very tricky these days, not stable at all. Hence dont wanaa take any chance.

^The net connection matters only when you are downloading the upgrade i.e when it shows "MB completed". I have removed the cable connection like thrice during that period. The cable connection matters when it is installing into the phone.

No. Both are almost same no major changes in the latest firmware.

Welcome back dude. See Nokia produces from time to time a few exceptional masterpieces but also lot of duds too :grin:

And true v31 is better than v30. Aside from minor changes like slightly better stability,music and battery life, one very easy noticeable change you will see that is in v30 , (probably its a bug) that when battery indicator looses a few bars the rest disappears quite quickly. Only an minor annoyance but thankfully its fixed in v31.
So v31 is more like improving the total experience.

And buddy, i suggest you give your phone to service center. Its much safer this way.

Even if you lose connection while updating,you can restore it.My connection stopped in the middle and nsu told me to remove the battery and plug again, after doing so,the update started again from where it was stopped.

No probs guys, updated mine to ver 31 today. Actually pretty familiar with this update procedure. Just that i am in a no mood to visit the friendly nokia care centre again. Also I will again like to state that with sen cx400, there is absolutely no difference in sound quality between n85 and n82. n82 is infact a bit louder than n85 with cx400. Hence better sound quality in n85 is not an advantage if u use good quality earphones like sen cx400.

And n82 cam is clearly much better than n85 not even considering the lovely xenon flash.I will much rather have "xenon flash" in my phone than these newly found "dual led"flash setups. Only practical advantage of these dual led setups is u can record usable videos in total dark and use those leds as torch.I believe the dual led setup of n85 is among the brighest and still it was no match for xenon for obvious reason.

The upcoming n86 has third generation dual led setup with range of upto 3.5 meters. But still i dont think it can match the xenon of n82. Nice read below ..

I have a gut feeling this n86 would be a pretty decent phone.

Any app that can do geotagging for videos in n82? It was available in n85
