Hi. I have bought a Nokia 6600, It will be comming soon. Please could I have a few user opinions. And some stuff I might want to do to the phone when i get it to improve it.

What are the known issues etc.?

Thankyou for your help in advanced, I hate being a newbie :frown: Nevermind I better get posting. :-0 - Albert

I think you're going to like it :D
First thing you should do is get some applications. FExplorer is free, and I can't recommend it highly enough.
If you're new to BlueTooth technology, get a dongle for your pc to send and receive files.
Go and check out the themes at : www.symbianthemes.com
These are all free, and all designed for 6600.
I don't want to give too much away... My relationship with my 6600 is like a fledgling romance - I discover something new and wonderful (and occasionally frustrating) about it every day.

Thanks for that, any others have any views they would like to share on the phone?

Check for any dead pixels as soon as you get it,they can occur at any time but at least start with one thats ok.

Check which firmware it is shipped with *#0000# to see if its the latest (v5.27.0),if its not and you want it,it will be free for a limited time.

Read up on how to correctly add and remove applications as many new users have come unstuck by messing about with the above program (Fexplorer),so i would suggest only using it if you are familiar with its uses.

I have 4.09.1 Is that a bit pants???? Or is the v5 Good????? Im confused. P.S I dont have dead pixels, however it can be a little sluggish with the menus, Im guessing that maybe the firmaware upgrade will fix this?????

You didnt get a 6600 on orange did you???

If so, you didnt read enough of this forum to see all the associated problems orange phones seem to have. (Stalling when menu switching,camera delays,multi media presentation) to name a few.

Still its too late now,see how you get on with it as there is no point upgrading for the sake of it,(im still on v 3.42.1).

:)

ok Kool. The phone is actually on orange because its unlocked, but the actual phone came from france so i have no idea.

But im starting to like this baby, Its really good, although a couple of things take time, its great!!!

Also I forgot to say thankyou for all your help, if there is anything that you would like to add, go ahead!
