Looks like Nokia releasing more to touch screen phone and like Toyota, everyone can own a Vios..for Nokia, everyone can own a touch screen phone..i guess this phone will be much cheaper than 5800 XM as it didnt provide any wifi connection.

Much like the Nokia 5800, the Nokia 5230 sports a 3.2-inch resistive touchscreen with a resolution of 640 x 360 pixels, FM radio, 3.5 mm audio jack and microSD card slot. The camera has been downgraded to 2 megapixel resolution but manages the decent VGA@30fps video recording.

Nokia 5230 runs the latest Symbian S60 5th edition and is powered by the same battery as 5800 - a 1320 mAh one, which is good 320 mAh larger that that of the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic. According to the manufacturer the 5230 will be capable of 33 hours of non-stop music playback.

I hope with Nokia coming up with this model, 5800 XM users will be able to enjoy same widget as 5230...as I like the home screen better

Hang or problem during firmware update on your 5800 XM?

I had couple of friends having trouble with their 5800 XM after software update to v30.

1. Phone Keep on restart.
2. Unable to key in pincode
3. Hang in the middle of update
4. etc..


Well, you guys can try this.

1. Take out the memory card, reboot your phone and then put back the memory card
2. Doesn't work?..Try take out your battery, press power button for 30 sec, and put back your battery, and reboot
3. Still doesn't work..so no choice,..take out your battery, perform a hard reset. (hard reset your phone by off it, hold camera button+red button+ green button and reboot. wait for nokia handshake screen before release all the button)

IF still doesn't help, well, sent to Nokia SC to help claim warranty..I believe all 5800 users in Malaysia still have warranty on their phone as this phone just release end of last year..

enjoy!
