Nokia XM 5800 firmware 40.0.005

Nokia-5800[1]

 

Just upgraded my Nokia XM 5800 firmware yesterday as the previous version 3.1 was extremely unstable causing a lot of inconvenience when using the phone. The most problematic that I encounter is when answering any call, I just can’t hear anything from the caller said. At that time you will notice that any number you press on the virtual keypad was muted as well, so the only was to resolve this is change the profile from general to meeting then changing it back and it back to normal.

I was thinking to reset my phone and see if the problem will go away but I’m stuck on trying to reset it back to factory default where it asking for the lock code and i can’t recall nor know what is the lock code. So i try my luck on the internet and just found out that newer firmware version 40.0.005 was released. I would not aspect it free from any other bug but better than keeping this old firmware so i just give it a try. The update was just easy, you just need to have an internet access and browse to the device updates to get the update. You can refer to my previous write up here on how to upgrade the firmware.

The most noticeable thing after upgrading the firmware was the performance and responsive of the UI is much more smoother and faster plus there is few of the enhancement included like below:-

  • New: Kinetic Scrolling across most of the menus.
  • New: Contacts Bar where you can add upto 4 contacts.
  • New: Ovi Contacts.
  • New: Widgetized Shortcuts homescreen similiar to Nokia 5530.
  • Download! app has now been removed. Anyways it had become redundant after the release of Ovi Store client.
  • QWERTY Keyboard Automatically Rotates on the text input screens.
  • Under Applications, “App Update” has now been changed to “SW Update” similiar to Nokia N97 and N97 Mini.
  • Better Responsive UI.

 

Upgrade your phone today and wait no more….

dlight[3]

In old days, when a new born baby reach 1 month old and in Chinese tradition will celebrate Fullmoon for the baby. During the celebration the family members will prepare red egg (where the egg dip into red coloring liquid that consist of vinegar and red color to make the egg become red), pickled ginger, vinegar pork leg (with lots of ginger and vinegar) and Ang Koo kuih.

After the preparing all the foods, all the families member including all relatives will enjoy the foods will seeing the new born baby. Apart from this, the parent do gives red eggs and roast pork to friends or relatives that does not able to come on that day as to thank and cherish the happiest moment. As times goes by this tradition seem to be far left behind as city peoples are too busy with city life’s and usually does not do that but just order catering then invites all the relatives and friend to come by.

Even now a days this Fullmoon celebration have extended not just to our friend but even to our office colleague that did not manage to come by and just purchase a Fullmoon gift pack from Delights Fullmoon that have offered such packages to saves time and able to celebrate this cherish moment with all friends.

Delights Fullmoon offered various fullmoon packages to choose from that suite your needs. Each of the packages include red eggs, pickled ginger and Ang Koo kuih as that’s the traditional foods to be have. Best thing is all the packages suite for everyone to consume as is it Halal and they do have vegetarian packages as well, so if you have a new born baby on the way you can have a look on their website.

Wasting Resources

I was wonder who proposing the usage of the so call blower that Alam Sekitar is using to blow all the leave from the road to the drain (long kang) or road side. It was such an wasting of resource where hiring a bunch of people just doing that and it does not make any help but creating problem.

They not just blowing the leave into the drain but others rubbish as well causing the drain clog end up all the drain water stuck there and mosquito starting to breed there. If the area is good enough to have another bunch of people to clean up the drain then its still ok but why need to split a simple job into 2 group of people doing it.

I really have not idea what is the guy who proposed think? ….

Wasting our money for nothing, not even creating a better living for us….
