Requirements & Recommendations - Uninstall any previous version Nokia Maps / Nokia OVI Maps. - Delete the entire existing CITIES folder from memory card. - Deletion of above folder is because this new version not compatible with old map structure.
Offline finding tips, make sure use rough names, eg. if u wanna find No. 1, Jalan Timun 24/F, Seksyen 24, Shah Alam, Selangor Darul Ehsan just use the keyword Jalan Timun 24 Shah Alam and the trick will work by finding nearest exact location.
1. Prepare the fresh installation either via Nokia OVI Maps source or alternate source. 2. Copy out the entire CITIES folder from memory card. 3. Do a fresh installation and configuration of the new Nokia OVI maps. 4. Connect device via Mass Storage mode. 5. Delete the entire new CITIES folder from memory card. 6. Copy the backed up old CITIES folder to memory card. 7. Done !
Address Finding Issue After Installation
It seems to be a small issue, where by Nokia might wants the user to go online search for the first time on the Nokia Maps before subsequent searches are performed offline mode. This may due to device authentication data sent online to Nokia for log purpose. Once the first time online search ends, close Nokia OVI Maps and do an offline search. It works !
Nokia OVI Maps Online & Offline Map Searching Issue
1. Setup your WiFi setting. 2. Verify the WiFi functionality (browse some web page). 3. Set the WiFi as 1st priority inside the destination (internet) setting. 4. Set the WiFi as the default access point (for the internet). 5. Delete the WAP / MMS / STREAMING settings and left the 3G Internet (as 2nd priority inside the internet setting). 6. Edit the 3G internet setting and change the "password prompt" to YES. 7. Load up the maps loader. 8. Click on the delete maps from storage. 9. Reload in the maps (at least the malaysia map must be selected). 10. Load as well the voice guidance file. 11. Wait for all the downloading and uploading finished. 12. Run Location and disable the agps and network under positioning setting. 13. Run the OVI maps. 14. When the 3G internet prompt up select cancel (do not connect) (if it still pop up, suppose wont because we already disable A-GPS and network in Location setting). 15. Go to setting and change the internet to online. 16. Select appropiate voice guidance file. 17. Go outside where more satelite can be search. 18. Now go to my location and wait for the satelite to get a fix (might be take long since no agps) 19. Make sure the red dot are "IN MALAYSIA". 20. Change maps mode as SATELITE view to try the WiFi can download the satelite image (to ensure WiFi is working). 21. Once confirm WiFi working switch back to maps view. 22. Walk around and you will see the GPS is working already (since it already lock, red dot will turn SOLID RED and satellite bar should be green).
The most useful for the 3G internet password prompt when agps and network positioning enable: 1. Select YES during the password prompt you will have A-GPS (fast lock with charges). 2. Select CANCEL during the password prompt you will have full I-GPS (slow lock but FOC).
Steps 18 and 19 are needed because sometime during the first time OVI maps run it will set it "previous' location as some where maybe not within Malaysia and if this happen and you dont have those location maps downloaded in the database then it will direct download from the internet and who know which access point it gonna use (if it use 3G internet then you will lost lots of phone credits for those huge maps data), confirm this if you dont have the maps data install it will direct download the file.
Below is a screenshot shows, full OFFLINE guide, see the GPS INTERNET connection is striked out:
It turns out, it is pretty tough considering my lack of expertise when it comes to Symbian OS phones. I spent 3 days experimenting all possibilities to make it work on my phone. Since it took a lot of my time, I’m going to save yours by teaching you.
Before you do anything, Download the file (80 mb ++) and read all the instructions before hand. It’ll help you to visualize the process.
Download file contains
GarminMobileXTforSymbianS603rdEdition_50040.exe
GarminMobileXTFreeBasemap_4xxxx.exe
GarminMobileXTSupportFiles_4xxxx.exe
gmapsupp.img (Malaysian Map, with DUKE highway)

Note: You can skip part 1.
1. Setting up Apparatus, The Nokia 5800
Back up all data using PC Suite (go to Nokia website).
Soft reset by pressing *#7370#. Should take about 2-3 mins and you lose all your data (except on memory card). But don’t worry, you have back up remember?
On your Nokia 5800, go to Application > Location > Positioning > Positioning Methods. Enable “Assisted GPS” and “Integrated GPS” ONLY. This will ensure you don’t get charge using WAP or 3G network for Internet.
Go to Application > Location > GPS Data > Position > Options > Satellite status. This will show the satellite signals you’re receiving. Be sure you are outdoor in an open area. Balcony doesn’t work well, believe me I’ve tried. Once you’ve got AT LEAST 4 satellite signal, go back indoor, you don’t want people to think you’re crazy, waving your phone around.
Now you’re ready for GarminXT.
2. Installing GarminXT on Nokia 5800.
Once you’ve downloaded, unzip the files to someplace accessible preferably on your desktop. If you haven’t, please download it.
Connect your phone via USB and select ‘Mass storage mode’.
From you PC, double click “GarminMobileXTforSymbianS603rdEdition_50040.exe” to install and wait.
Double click “GarminMobileXTFreeBasemap_4xxxx.exe” to install. Wait..
Double click “GarminMobileXTSupportFiles_4xxxx.exe” to install.
Remove USB connection between PC and phone. When prompted ‘Launch GarminXT’ do not click Yes, just Cancel.
From your phone, go to Menu > Settings > Application Manager > Installation files. There should be GarminXT.sis file. Install it.
3. Cracking GarminXT on Nokia 5800.
Tell yourself and say “Yes, I’m a cheapskate”.
Run GarminXT from your phone at Menu > Application > Garmin. It will prompt you with some settings. Choose your preferable.
Select “Use other device” when it prompts you to buy or trial. You will get a screen, “Where To?” and “View map”
In GarminXT, go to Tools > Settings > About. Jot down “Card ID”, you will need it. Exit GarminXT
On your PC, run “garmin_kgen.exe” and enter the “Card ID” from previous steps.
Generate it and you will get a string of codes. Copy the codes to Notepad and save it as “sw.unl”. *Be sure you don’t save it as sw.unl.txt”*
Connect your phone to PC and select “Mass storage mode”.
Copy “sw.unl” to Garmin folder. Usually located at E:/Garmin.
Copy “gmapsupp.img” from downloaded file to Garmin folder. “gmapsupp.img” is the Malaysian map.
Disconnect your phone from PC.
4. Restore your Nokia 5800
Reconnect your phone via PC Suite.
Restore your settings through back up.
5. Setting up GarminXT on Nokia 5800
You don’t need your PC anymore. Shut down and conserve energy.
Run GarminXT on your phone.
Go to Tools > Settings > System > Remote GPS. Change to “Use Attached GPS” by disabling the “Bluetooth GPS”.
Go to Tools > Manage My Data > Map Sets > MapSource. Make sure all maps are enabled.
6. Toying GarminXT on Nokia 5800.
Switch off your fans and lights. Go out.
Run GarminXT, (duh!).
Select “View Map” and wait for a while. The satellite will find you. It took me 5 mins or so. Just have patience and faith.
Now you’ll see where you are.
Go back and select “Where To?”. If you’re at home and wants GarminXT to store you current location as home, then select “Home”
“Where To?” is rather confusing. I usually use “Where To?” > Point of interest. There’s lots of shopping malls, hospitals, banks, ATM machines etc. from there, you’d know where to go.
Pat yourself and say “Well done”. The rest is up to you.
Note: I will NOT be providing support. If it doesn’t work for you, you can leave a comment and hope someone will rescue you. Google it!
The only reason why they have thrown the Nokia 5730 into their music-minded line-up is that Nokia are trying to sell the same phone and form-factor in to two different flavors so as to win as big a share as possible.
In fact, it wouldn’t be a mistake to say that they are forging a new segment of side-sliders with thumbboards, instead of assessing every Nokia-branded phone of this kind separately.
While the Nokia 5730 won’t face any sort of direct competition, this fact alone doesn’t guarantee it will be sell in droves. In fact, its predecessor, the Nokia 5320 didn’t have any rivals either, but it never became a particularly popular offering.
On top of that, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic will be hard to compete with, given that they will be only 60 Euro away from each other price-wise. That’s why the 5730 XpressMusic’s main goal is to pad Nokia’s portfolio and maybe generate some sales, but that’s about it.
The 5730 XpressMusic’s image quality is little to no different from that of the Nokia N78
Its sales will kick off in April at the price-point of around 220 Euro, which makes it a viable option for those who are in the market for a cheap QWERTY-enabled smartphone. But, again, it’s still a niche product, so don’t expect any breakthroughs from it.
P.S. Later this week you’ll see the official announcement of this phone – probably on Wednesday. Don’t forget to check back for our world’s first review of the Nokia 5730 XpressMusic!
The Folks at Nokia Conversation was once again first with unveiling another Nokia touchscreen phone. Heres the Nokia 5230 Press release:
Nokia has just popped open its paint pot and pulled out the new Nokia 5230 in a range of custom colours. The latest handset to join the touchscreen fold, the Nokia 5230 has been designed to serve up slick on-the-go entertainment, location-based services and act as an easy pocket portal for social networking at low cost. Read on for more details and get a close-up look at the 5230 in our photo gallery.
Brandishing a 3.2-inch widescreen touch display with full-screen QWERTY keyboard and handwriting recognition, the Nokia 5230 is geared up to enable you to rattle out messages at speed. Paired with speedy HSDPA connectivity, this means staying in the loop and keeping your Facebook and Twitter streams promises to be a no-wait affair. Ovi Store is nestled neatly on the homescreen from the moment you switch on the device, ensuring you can get instant anywhere access to quality bite-size apps.
Music is its first love though, with the 5230 bringing 33 hours of playback time (long battery life was recently voted the most important feature in a music phone by you guys - so we’re stoked to see that), a 3.5mm headphone jack and memory expandable up to 16GB via a microSD card. Two versions of the phone will launch - a standard device costing 149 Euros, and in some select areas a Comes With Music version will be available for 259 Euros for those keen on all-you-can-eat downloads.
Jo Harlow is Vice President at Nokia, and had this to say about today’s news of the upcoming 5230:
“Competitively priced at 149 Euros, we believe the Nokia 5230 is an unbeatable offer for many new customers who aspire a device that stars in music, mingles with social networks from Facebook to MySpace, navigates you to where it happens, when it happens, and comes in array of dazzling colors”
Other features include assisted-GPS with Ovi Maps, Nokia’s new Contacts bar on the homescreen, a 2 megapixel camera and Bluetooth 2.0.

It is well known fact that Nokia likes viral marketing and stealth-like product placements in movies and music videos and TV shows. Company's product placements that we have covered so far incloudes Nokia N81 which was spotted in Alicia Key’s music video, SuperNova made an appearance in Fall Out Boy's I Don’t Care video while the Nokia N96 plays leading role in Katy Perry’s 'Hot N Cold' clip!
Nokia 5800 is king of them all, one of the most advertised Nokia's product ever appeared in the Batman: The Dark Knight movie, latest Britney’s 'Womanizer' video clip, Christina Aguilera's 'Keeps Gettin' Better' music clip, Pussycat Dolls' Jai Ho spot and the last apperance was in the very popular Flo Rida's video spot for Right Round single.
Now Nokia goes one step further as their mysterious full touch screen device based on the company’s uber-sexy looking Aeon concept plays main role in recently released Echelon Conspiracy movie! It indeed doesn’t looks like the Aeon as it lacks slightly curved figure, but the main designers idea is ripped very well.
Mysterious cell phone messages promise a young American engineer untold wealth — then make him the target of a deadly international plot. Dangerous security operatives chase the engineer across the globe, while a powerful government official pursues a mysterious agenda that threatens the stability of the entire world.
"Echelon Conspiracy" combines a righteous message about out-of-control government surveillance with the old computer-gone-haywire plot to make - well, not very much, actually.

If above is TLDR for you, here's a summary.
Pros: -3.2" 16:9 nHD screen -32gb internal memory -5mp carl zeiss dual LED flash -GPS & Wifi
Announced at Nokia's Remix event in London, at the beginning of October 2008, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is a mid-range, music focused phone, running S60 5th Edition on Symbian OS 9.4, with a 3.2 megapixel camera, integrated GPS, WiFi and HSDPA connectivity, and a 3.2 inch touch screen. It's the last item on this feature list which draws attention to what would otherwise be a fairly standard mid range phone. There's no doubt that it is going to garner attention, coming in the wake of the recent spate of touch phones, including, of course, the Apple iPhone. While it's not Nokia's first touch phone (Nokia 7700/7110) or its first recent touch device (Nokia N810), it is the first S60 touch enabled phone and is a significant landmark in Nokia's mobile device story. However, it is worth noting from the start that it is not "Nokia's touch phone", instead it is the first in a portfolio of touch enabled phones from Nokia. From firmware V20.0.012 onwards, the 5800's CPU clock was increased from 369MHz to 434MHz matching the N97 specification. However, improved overall performance can be observed at firmware V30.
On August 2009, Nokia announced a new variant named Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition. In addition to the normal Nokia 5800 it has the latest version of Ovi Maps pre-installed, loaded with a lifetime license of drive and walk navigation (which otherwise requires subscription on the non-Navigation Edition 5800). It also comes with a car charger and car kit inside the box.

Nokia 5800XM Product Code Check Physical check by removing rear case and battery or Using Service Suites, such as Phoenix, Nemesis or JAF Nokia 5800XM Product Elaboration & Guides What IS the product code on my Nokia 5800? Aren’t they all RM-356 devices?
RM-356 is indeed the phone type for the Nokia 5800 XM. However the reason for different product codes is to enable a way for the phones, networks, update tools and other interested parties to know which network / country / version of the Nokia 5800 XM you have. Each network has it’s own product code. Each colour variant has it’s own product code. Each language pack has it’s own product code. There are many of them.
So why do I want to change the product code on my Nokia 5800 XM? When Nokia release a new firmware, they tend to release it for the generic, vanilla, unbranded handsets only. Network / operator branded handsets don’t see the same firmwares released at the same time, as the firmwares have to go to the networks and be branded / altered, then tested, then released. This means that network branded versions of firmwares generally aren’t available for at least 2 months after the generic ones are released.
How can I find out the product code of my Nokia 5800 XM? The product code for your Nokia 5800 XM is written on the phone’s ID sticker, which lives under the battery. The code is a 7 digit number and usually starts with a 0.
So I can use any product code, right? No, You have to be very careful about which product code you use. You should only use a code which you know will be OK on your phone. (Generally, most people will want to use a EURO1 code, or other language pack generic code) This thread has a comprehensive listing of Nokia 5800 XM product codes.
This is legal, right? Does this affect my warranty in any way? While it is legal to change the product code of your phone, it DOES void your warranty with Nokia (and your network) as you have altered the phone from the way it was configured when you purchased the phone.
Will I still get support for my Nokia 5800 XM? Generally, yes. Most Nokia service centres (certainly in the UK) won’t mind that you’ve changed the product code. However, as a rule of thumb, should you need support for your phone, it’s a good idea to ensure you change the phone back to it’s real product code before seeking support. Nokia Malaysia (MY) WILL NOT repair phones with the wrong product codes, so if your phone is being sent to Nokia it is very important that the code is correct. Obviously this could be a problem if your phone is completely dead and can’t be accessed your first point of contact in this case should be to talk to your local Nokia service centre and tell them that you need the product code changed back.
Warranty Voids Activity 1. Flashing your firmware manually voids warranty (Other than update firmware via NSU / FOTA). 2. Strip off ure device voids warranty. 3. Any other user fault (drop / sit on lcd / water caused defect etc. voids warranty). 4. Changing the product code and/or IMEI of the device.

Original Phones vs. Approval Products Original Sets - Nokia authorized distributors are Zitron, Avaxx and i-Mobile. - Sony Ericsson authorized distributors are T-Choice, Grandtech and Midlands. - First Mobile Group (FMG) is the main distributor of Samsung phones. - FMG is giving 18 months warranty. - Motorola authorized distributor are Satellite Technics, Zitron and MDM. - Siemens authorized distributors are Zitron and FMG. - You can service your phone at any service centres (Nokia Professional Centre, Sony Ericsson Certified Service Centres...) - 1 year warranty for the full set including charger, battery, handsfree. - Geniune parts are used for repairing.
AP Sets / Approval Products - Approval Products - Mainly imported from oversea and sell it to the consumers. - AP set warranty by companies such as Final Choice, CSL, Nefion, Telstra, GTMax...etc - 1 year warranty for the phone and 1 month for the accesories like charger, battery, handsfree. - You must bring your phone back to the place u bought the phone for servicing.
Water Set Stolen / Brought in from oversea without paying tax aka SIRIM Sticker. Considered Illegal. Mostly brought in by student studying oversea.
Tips & Guides
Tips 1 If you have an AP set with Vodafone or T-Mobile logo, it means that your phone might be locked. Those Vodafone or T-Mobile are the service operators in the UK and that's where the phones come from. Not all AP sets have the logo. AP sets are Approved Products which means that these products are certified by sirim that your product is safe to use.
In other words, AP product not brought in by the authorised distributor like Midland, T-Choice for SE, Avaxx or Zitron for Nokia, FMG for Samsung and etc. The phones can even come from Singapore and may even have the M1, Singtel or Starhub logo. Remember to check the phone if it is locked especially those from Singapore and Vodafone.
Tips 2 AP sets has different level of QC. Big AP companies like Final Choice, GTMAX, Nefion, Telstra, O'Connors have extensive QC checks. Others like MSL, YS, PLANTRONICS or names not mentioned above, are slightly cheaper than the above. Whether they replaced their parts with other stuff, its another question.
Tips 3 AP set actually pay government tax but is juz that they are not taxed by the Local Authorised Dealer. AP set is normally distributed by small handphones companies and they might stop business anytime. Futhermore if there's major damage on your AP set, the AP companies might not have enough equiptment to fix it. At the end, they still have to send it to the authorized dealer (eg. Zitron, Avaxx).
Tips 4 Like what everyone else have said, a phone without a SIRIM sticker is considered as illegal and thus cannot be sold here. But I'm gonna assume that if the phone is not available here, it should be better. And besides, if you bought the phone from overseas and bring it back here to use, don't tell me it would be illegal to use it right?
Speaking of buying a waterset from a shop, they might say that you did not inspect it properly before buying and thus you are at fault. So yeah guys, if you wanna buy a phone, do yourselves a favor and do these few things:
- Check for SIRIM sticker (this is a MUST. Everyone should know this). - Cross check IMEI numbers on the phone and the box - Ask for warranty card. - Ask if the warranty card needs to be sent to wherever necessary. - Check all the features of the phone (iow, play with the phone, make sure everything is working). - Check for dead pixels. - Check the firmware if possible (*#0000# for most nokias). This way, you can check if it's old stock or not. - And of course, make sure you get the propper set. As in nothing missing like the handsfree and stuff.
Watersets are usually sold without accesories, only phone and charger. So sometimes if you add up buying the accesories elsewhere, it might cost near the same as buying a proper set. There are reconditioned set might be known as water set, so beware while you buying. Recond set are second hand handphones from overseas, they juz change the phone cover (might not be original cover) and do some servicing inside and sell it as an AP set with warranty 1 year summore. As I know FMG will not fix phones other than FMG warranty handset (even they are paid they will not fix)
Identify Original and AP Set - Take out the phone case and battery. - original set comes with authorized company sticker (Zitron, Avaxx, T-Choice, Midland). - AP set comes with AP company sticker (Final Choice). - press *#06# to check the phone 15 digit serial number (IMEI). - compare it with the IMEI written on phone sticker (back of phone case) and package box sticker. - for original set, these serial numbers are the same.

Nokia Device Software - FAQ Please refer to below link for Nokia's Device Software FAQ's.
Remember, using a hacked firmware does not affect the Nokia warranty issue since firmware, Hello OX and ROMPATCHERS does not affect the hardware in any manner.
TV-Out Feature Disabled From what Nokia understood is that the removal of the tv-out (and the TV-out cable) in some Nokia phones was a temporary issue caused by a lack in the supply of the necessary components. It affected a few Nokia models that were manufactured during August 2009. Nokia 5800 was one of the affected models but to the knowledge the Nokia N79 was not. The label in the sales package (and the salesperson) should definitely mention if the TV-out is missing from that particular device. Please consult your phone dealer.
Nokia Charger Exchange Programme Nokia has announced an exchange program for a limited number of Nokia-branded chargers manufactured by a third party supplier. We have determined that the plastic covers of the affected chargers could come loose and separate, exposing the charger’s internal components and potentially posing an electric shock hazard if certain internal components are touched while the charger is plugged into a live socket. While we are not aware of any incidents or injuries related to the affected chargers, as a precautionary measure, we will exchange affected charger models free-of-charge. The affected chargers are those manufactured by BYD between June 15, 2009 and August 9, 2009 and with the following model types: AC -3U, AC-3E and those manufactured by BYD between April 13, 2009 and October 25, 2009 and with the following model type AC-4U.
Affected chargers may have been sold with a Nokia device or purchased separately as an accessory.Your charger is not impacted by this action if you purchased it before June 15, 2009 for models AC-3U and AC-3E and before April 13, 2009 for model AC-4U or it is a similar charger model manufactured by any other supplier. The reliability and quality of our products, is Nokia’s top priority. If you have confirmed that your charger is eligible to be replaced, we advise that you stop using it, and seek a free replacement charger. An exchange program has been arranged for all markets in which affected chargers have been sold.
To minimize inconvenience to Nokia customers, the exchange will take place at the country level.
The correct charger for Nokia 5800XM / N97 which powers: - Input AC 100 volts ~ 240 volts (50 ~ 60Hz) 110mA - Output DC 5.0 volts / 890mA How to check video tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gW80dlLr6NE
Capacitive or Resistive Touch Screens Which one is right for you?
Resistive (Nokia 5800XM & Nokia N97) - Designed to allow items other than your finger to activate the touch. It also allows touch pens otherwise know as a Stylus to be used.
Capacitive (iPhone) - Best for situations that require high speed response and long lasting reliability.
The iPhone uses the more advanced capacitive technology, which doesn't need actual contact. Capacitive sensors sit behind the glass and sense when the electrical field is disturbed. It allows for multi touch etc, which most touch screens are not capable of. Because there is no resistive film, it allows the display to be brighter. Capacitive screens are more expensive the manufacture, but given the massive price tag of the N97, you'd have thought Nokia would use the best type of screen possible? Especially as it looks likely to be pitched against the iPhone.
