Oh god, those expensive & crappy phones from Nokia. First the handsets getting dead & now this.

Best of luck to N8/C7 owners.

It isn't just with N8,it started with 5800 then 5230,5233,5530 and all other touch screen phones.One of my friends solved the problem by hardwiring a magnetic strip just below the ear peice but i don't know how.
