Europe version?

Hi, I've had the e70 for a while now and love it, except that it drops its signal much more so than any of my other Cingular/ATT phones.

I was told that I might have a European version of the phone (I bought it early off of ebay) which is optimized for the GSM bands there and not the GSM here in the states. Any idea if this is a possibility?

Thanks

Question

Hi all,

I don't know if anyone's reading this thread anymore(!). I'm considering purchasing an E70 as a phone/music played but unfortunately will have to web-order it as no one around here carries one at anything approaching a reasonable price. My question is whether or not it can be made compatible with a standard pair of headphones (ie via an adapter to a 3.5mm socket) or if the phone can only use the proprietary Nokia headsets?

Would very much appreciated an answer.

Many thanks,
Ben.

rogerfgay Improving battery life - (I experienced a dramatic improvement ... )

Make sure roaming is off. This is a feature that should only be turned on if you're sure that you need it. It isn't necessary just to automatically find and connect to an access point. (Read the manual.)

Upgrade your home router firmware. Some old router firmware has some horrible inefficiencies in it (also cause for dropping VoIP connections).

Unregistered I am wondering if the E70 is capable of playing back true full-screen videos, ie. full-resolution videos?
02-04-2007 07:57 PM
Unregistered Will this review be updated when the v3 firmware is properly released? I'm umming about this or the E90. Is there any sign that an E70i may appear?

Thanks

sherrina I've just purchase this phone. My new symbian phone after 2 years of not using symbian. It's hard to find in the market, no longer around but I love the features and the unique of the phone. Too bad changing housing is impossible but I use casing to protect the phone.

A happy E70 owner

slitchfield No, you're usually told to disable those things temporarily, in order to check whether everything's all right at heart. You can then start reenabling stuff in order to find the culprit.

My E70 is my main device and gets a lot of use, and yet I can go 2 or 3 days without charging. Fabulous battery life.

My bet for why some people have problems is badly written push email software or GSM/3G weak signal issues.

Be careful

First, let me say that this is a beautiful, solidly built and feature-rich phone. I love it--in theory. I say that since for the past four months, It has been at Nokia service almost as much as it has been with me. From the very first, it suffered what I considered unacceptable battery life. The E70 specs state that "standby time" is around 17days. I've yet to experience 17 HOURS of standby time, and I make very few calls.

Nokia has checked it out twice, sent me a new battery once and finally, sent me a replacement E70 last week, but it's exactly the same.

On the various online forums regarding this phone, I've heard from a lot of E70 users. No one has experienced 17 days of standby, but some do get five or six days. However, there are a lot of owners, like me, who cannot even get one day's use before having to recharge.

Nokia seems "clueless" or stonewalling. The phone is great in concept and functionality, but when you're told to disable the Bluetooth and WiFi and don't put any third-party applications on it an still get only a couple of days use before it goes dead. I'm sorry. This is not acceptable. Now, I have a unique $400 (plus expenses and software) paperweight on my desk.

jimmar6 One "hard-to-make-use-of" phone

"+"
Very good design. qwerty keyboard.
Good camera, although 2MP - verry fast screen refresh i camera mode.
Good display.
Descent battery life. 2-3 days active use (it really depends). a lot of BT and Wi-fi downloading and web browsing
Firmware updates over the internet. (put it as a "+" although many people reported that their phones died after trying to update from firmware 1.6xxx to 2.xxx so cross fingers before updating)
Light sensor. Keybord backlight is on only in the dark.

"-"

E70 speciffic.
---
Wi-fi Ad-hoc mode restarts the phone each time the connection is terminated.
Wi-fi WPA2 TKIP works 50% of the time.
Snooze feature disappears after been used 5 times in a row. Restart gets it fixed.
Can not use the VPN to connect to M$ VPN server. only several servers are supported by the VPN client.
Poor audio. Fixed in 2.xxx firmware at the price of weak volume. Weak sound even at MAX.
Mono hands-free.

Symbian OS60v3
---
Mobile office allows you to open only simple files small enough to be loaded.
Out-of-memory error too often.
No repeatable alarm for workdays only. Even daily repeatable alarm is missing.
Problems installing some PKCS#12 certificates. Some of them work and some don't. After opening the certificate file, phone shows that there is one cert and one key in it and when you choose install - one big message "Private key corrupted" Never got suppurt from NOKIA for this one.

Yes - absolutely upgrade from 6820 to E70

I had the Nokia 6820, and upgraded to the E70 this summer. No regrets, huge pay-off. It's a bigger phone, not much heavier, big beautiful screen. Email is great on it - handles attachments nicely, connects to WLAN pretty easily. Notes is much better (unlimited size), Organizer is still just fine. Gull keyboard is just as functional. 2 megapixel camera is wonderful. Voice recorder is easier to use (just push the side button). Perfect smartphone? Pretty close. Def pull the trigger on this one.
