n 97 A useless phone

[Thugscub]

Hi got the phone on contract it is a piece of crap it crashes, loses apps, loses signal basically never ever buy one. Now mtn will not replace it with another phone so surely it is against the law to sell a deffective device and not replace it or refund me. What to do? Ram it up the md's ass.

Update the phone to the latest firmware. N97 is known to have a lot of bugs

 

[Thugscub]

Thanks have tried that.

MTN doesnt know its defective when they sell it, thats because the packaging is sealed. If you have a problem with the device approach the manufacturer, the warranty is in place for just such an occurance. N97 is one of my 5 phones i use, switches off all on its own from time to time, confusing...

Hmmmm that's hectic. And I was going to buy my wife one!!!

E71 is a better option.

Lol. Do it!

The N97 without the firmware update is crap. Since I upgraded mine to 21.0.045. Available memory much more. No freezing, faster response, Keyboard working great, Good reception and sound

Its a shame, Nokia's look bad cause of **** OS, Symbian has to be the worst OS ever!!!

im sooo glad the N900 hasn't got it

My boss threw his N97 against the wall - and that was the end of it.

The fact that the Symbian OS was never designed for touchscreen phones, doesn't help either.

Wait until Rouxenator sees this thread...

Even Rouxenator knows that Nokia is busy with MeeGo as their next gen mobile OS. Symbian will still be around, but just for entry-level phones.

Check for yourself : http://meego.com/

*Oh, and MeeGo is a Linux OS, not sure Rouxenator would be happy with that. Just tell him it's Windows 7 Mobile.

Mtn phoned and said I must pick up the phone, I don't want the ducking thing. Will spread the word DO NOT EVER BUY A NOKIA N 97 droid is the way to go.

[Thugscub]

Ok make an offer.

You should do some research next time - I think some people call it the "internet", "interwebs" or something

How old is the phone?

Hmmm, weird, I got a Nokia N86 (because it's nokia's best phone that doesn't have touch screen), and it's pretty damn decent , has most of the features the N97 has .

Personal experience tells me be stay away from touch screen, my big fingers never worked with it .
