Hi all,I bought a N82 one week ago.First one was replaced due to it's failure of detection to usb cable,now i am on the second one which is even more Bull$hit.It hangs everytime listening to music even i am updated to newest firmware,and today it is not detecting usb cable.This Symbian is so crap that i had to remove the battery in order to start it again.Why Nokia is selling crap in the name of Nseries.Symbian is slow,all the promises of 128mb ram and great processor are lies.Music player is stupid and loudspeakers are joke.It takes only good pic and records good videos.The keypad is disaster.Now tell me what should i do.They can replace it with new N82,but i don't need this shit anymore.Any other cell apart from Nokia.

"Music player is stupid and loudspeakers are joke"
I would have believed that you own the phone if you hadnt said that. But the fact that you said the loud speakers are a joke shows your intention in this post.

i'm an SE loyalist and i'm meanting not to antagonize you, but for objectivity's sake can you explain to use why you said the 128 mb as well as the loudspeakers and the music players were joke
Posted by GUCCI.011
Its the 1st time i hear of most of those problems, especialy the USB one, MAYBE JUST MAYBE you got a faulty cable!!
Anyway go get a K850 looks like you arent prepared to give the N82 a chance. By the way its not slow, you must have had a realy bad unit,was it branded

I don't know about this but almost everybody says that their N82 runs blazing fast but in my case it is slow.The camera take time(6-7 seconds) to start,it was fast with less data installed.As for music,playlist gets erased everytime i start my phone.There is some distortion while listening to music and bass is very weak.The so called 3d stereo speakers creaks at high volume and produced low quality sound combined with stereo widening.
@gucci:It is not branded.Maybe you are right coz they had only replaced the phone,the accessories are from first phone.But why it stopped suddenly,last night it was working fine.

I havent had any experience with such a phone but really I have never heard of anyone complaining this much about this phone, unless you have had something better at hand. But even your desrcipion or complaint is too shallow to really state whether your problem is with the phone or with something you expected.
Can you explain a bit more or in details.

I am going to the dealer.

Yours must be from a faulty batch man, im suprised you say it's slow,because from what ive read its fast. There are faster phones though like the N81 and N76. I suggest you buy a brand new USB cable though,that should sort out that problem,i love Nokia's MicroUSB solution, my N81 connects to my PC with no problem.
Posted by The Lostprophet
maybe your installing stuff onto the phone, which will slow it down after a while. make sure your putting stuff like music ect onto your memorycard.
it shouldnt be slow, had a play with one the other day. was alot quicker then i was exspecting.
Posted by Waspinator
Everything is installed on the memory card.Used space is 650mb.
Posted by The Lostprophet
out of interest does it run faster without the memorycard in?
Posted by Waspinator
It runs fast without memory card.

sorry but THEY DONT HAVE k530 so i just estimated it
Posted by Trentors
I have the phone and know others who has it. It is not slow, unstable or anything. If people are having issues with the phone it is always a third party problem. So if you installed something weird or your memory card is faulty then that might be the issue. It is faster without the card right?
The phone itself works perfectly and even if you got a bad phone it is very unlikely you got two of them.
And the loudspeakers?? That is just plain weird. Have you heard the K850 or other SE phones? It is WAY better but of course not exactly high fidelity but who on Earth would expect that???
Posted by BobaFett
so can say, that THIS n82 is faulty, but not the n82 generally...

Dude have you tried listening through loudspeakers with stereo widening on.Compare it with a walkman or any other phone.

if its faster without the memorycard, then the memorycard is at fault for your slowness...
but yes everything else is a fault
its a normally great reliable phone, so dont give up on it that easy
it took till my 5th k850i to get a good one
shame i then sold it 
Posted by Waspinator
Hey now it is detecting usb cable
Posted by QVGA
Its VERY clear its the fault in your phone and not the N82 in general. So why are you making it sound like all N82s suck?

@wasp
Why dont you reformat your memory card. Most probably you have corrupted it somehow or maybe you got one of cheap pariah card.
I have no issue with usb with N82. I have installed many apps both in phone and memory and I dont experience any slow down or hang. I goto it for nearly 2 months and it have not hang on me once.
So most probably you got a defective set. And one more thing, your thread title makes you sound like a little bitchy cry-baby.

Stereo widening ruins the original sound by manipulating certain frequencies to make the sound wider. It DOES make the sound wider but also changes the original sound in the process. Are you accusing the loudspeakers of being bad because you are using this function??
Well newsflash: If you want a higher sound quality don't use all kind of manipulating sound filters! It's the same on all sound equipment and really A-B-C when it comes to electronics.
Turn off all filters and viola. Compare it with any SE phone - it sounds MUCH better when using the loudspeaker.
And I have multiple SE phones to compare with - Including the "flagship" K850i.
I can't believe you are creating all this negative fuss about the N82 based on you something like a faulty memory card, a sound filter and faulty USB cable (or maybe it is your computers fault). Be reasonable!!

Why on earth someone waste his time on a forum bashing his high end phone for no reason.Do you want me to accept all these problems.Leave the phone slow down and poor sound quality(i can live with it),But can you tell me why it freezes while listetning to music.I am updated to the newest firmware.See this thread also.I am not alone.

Well that is a good question. Especially considering that you are doing the same on the "K850 vs. N82" thread. There you got a lot of people who did not agree with you and then you ask the thread to be locked by administrator. It seems like you are just ranting.
And many disagree with your "low sound quality" rant. And I don't think you can judge good vs. bad sound quality when you rely on techniques like stereo widening or MegaBass. They are the Michael Bay of sound quality and nobody who is serious about sound quality would ever use these.
As I told you - and many others told you as well - it is probably your memory card.
Lets take a post from the discussion you just posted:
"OK, verified that the SD card is indeed the problem - at least in my case. Remove it from your phone and it will function properly. "
Gee, I wonder if your SD card is to blame since everything works when it is removed....

No one is expecting you to accept this problem. In fact, I/we would suggest you do something about. It is obvious that either your phone is faulty or the memory card or some rouge apps is causing the problem. If you have just asked instead of bitching about it all over, people would gladly suggest things you can try to rectify it e.g. reformat your memory card, reset your phone, remove some 3rd party apps or get your phone exchanged.

Maybe this is just the very same ISSUE with that of
fone models . . . FAULTs during it's initial release 
This is very UNUSUAL with Nokia fone models havin' problems with it's initial release
Posted by BobaFett
there are always faulty devices at a launch and dont forget, sometimes ppl expect a bot "more" or way "too much" of a fone... test, reviews "exaggarate" sometimes with results, so the best way is still to test the foen on your own and make a decision after. and to wait too much of music quality, pic qulity etc... these are still fones with some great features, but not a hi fi, hd, home movie etc devices
Posted by *Jojo*
. . . YES, and GET fones with WARRANTY . . . just in case the fone you GOT did not MEET your expectations . . .
Posted by BobaFett
what has warranty to do if a fone doesnt fit my expectations? afaik u cant bring it back and say: sorry, dont like it...
Posted by jakontil
just take it to the service center, ask them for a replacement
it should have been a great phone though, u don't deserve it
here's the best place to post your problem and trouble-shoot them regardless what brands but some people just take it too personally

@Waspinator or Anti Fanboy
It is safe to say that you find N82 is lacking
Reading your post gives me a sense of dejavu. I had my fair share of grouses on my N95-8GB that attract fires from its ardent fans (on Mobile Review forum N95 8GB thread, page 15 onward). Perhaps it is true that if you based your expectation by reading various reviews and some fans posts, it can be misleading. It may give a false expectation that top N-series like N95 8GB and N82 are the bestest, so everyone must be happy to have them. Well they are not!
As mentioned, they are just a good all rounder with their own flaws. Some may like it some may not. However in all fairness, SE also makes flawed sets. The uiq on W960 is laggy and the camera in K850 is mediocre unlike the previous successful K750 and K800. SE build quality of late is also not as solid as before. So my advice, try to live with your N82 or sell if you must. Start saving for some future products like Bei bei, Paris or N96.

In fairness, nobody force any1 to be happy with his/her phone. But to slate a phone due to one's inability to use it or one's lack of understanding of the technology or due to some isolated and untypical hardware/software defect is false representation.

I do not see the use of making another topic just cause you are not informed or self-educated properly about technology. Even if you are un-satisfaction can be expressed in numerous other topics, including the one done by yourself, "K850i or N82".
Posted by DragonEye
i loved the n82..
it was fast and stable... never crashed on me...
however the loud speakers do suck.. (comparable to most SE's) but embarrassed if put against the n95.
IMO it's easily the most complete s60 phone to date... the only problem was i kinda missed having a big screen and didn't like the look of the phone too much.. face it... it's kinda ugly lol
in terms of pratical usage i'll say for the most part SE's walkman software runs a little faster and smoother and is easier to use IF it has the old hardkeys (play/stop etc....first gen) if you compare it to the new w910/k850 (2nd gen) stuff both media players are pretty much the same application wise minus fancy eyecandy...
i thought the keypad was great, nice and clicky and responsive.. the dpad and softkeys are kinda ass.. especially that useless media key...(that should be moved to where the gallery key is IMO)

So can i ask for replacement.pichale janam ke bure karmo ko wajah se hua hain
Posted by whizkidd
Yeah.. Maybe Nokia and other manufacturers in India needs to add a clause to their warranty terms and conditions.
"Section 10.3.
This device is subject to replacement if the owner is a rebirth. Valid documents needs to be produced on demand regarding details of the last birth and the deeds committed last time. Habitual offenders will be given preference over newcomers. All disputes shall be under the jurisdiction of the local temple priest."
btw, this was a reply for the thread starters last post.
