N80 woes, need a new phone!
I have a Nokia N80, and its the most bug ridden phone I have ever used/seen/layed eyes on etc. I have the latest firmware but still its a pile of sh*t!
Recently I bought a 1gb memory card to replace my 128kb one and this slowed it down and i couldn't even access the memory, so I have finally decided the way forward is a new phone.Being a pay and go customer on o2, they tell me I can have £48 off a new phone so I am thinking of the Nokia 6233 which would cost £84 with discount. Does this phone have any bugs or can anyone recommend an even better one?? TIA ![]() EDIT: 3G is also a bonus, as I have a 3g sim, and heard it "messes up" 2g phones Last edited by spex3243 : 24-03-2007 at 19:24. |

Have a look for a 6280. It's like the baby n80.

I have this phone with no clitchs or bugs works fine all the time, BUT i did flash my phone to the Generic Nokia firmware as the Orange one made the phone run very badly. What problems you having with your N80? I do not know how you can call it a pile of shit when its the best phone i have ever had.

My n80 is extremely reliable. True I reflashed it to generic firmware, but I've had no problems with it. Are you sure your phone isn't faulty?

Just thinkgs like it goes very slow if i put my 1gb memory card in and fails to operate and images don't load and it just has that boat picture.
I have software version 4.0623.0.42 |

it is legal and you can normally do it at any nokia approved repair site. if you do it any other way you can just void your warranty |
