Symbian Anna 7.5 !

Back to Symbian Anna 7.5 OS for Nokia 5800 Music Xpress. :) ;) :D B-)

It might not be implied to everyone that this happens to be awesome. This is no iPhone or anything like that. Just that iPhone is out of my range presently and so are all other sleek 'n slim new trendy phones in the market. I won't be given a new phone because I already have one. The old s-u-c-k-i-n-g Nokia 5800 Music Xpress. There is lot of time till I get an iPhone or something like that. So for now, I have to bear with this old r-o-t-t-e-n phone. Earlier I said Back to Symb..... here I meant that I had updated the firmware to the Anna Os some while back but again due to deception I had to go back to the Symbian v60. 

 Some 5 months back or so, I heard of a new firmware for my phone. That was totally awesome. But the problem was that it requires flashing of the phone which means that the phone will no longer have any kind of warranty and also the software would not be original. But w-h-a-t t-h-e h-e-l-l, my phone was already sucking at its peaks. So I made a bold attempt to make it better with the new OS called as Symbian Anna. My present phone version was v52.(something). And that Anna firmware was for this version only, which I came to know later. The actual thing is that this software OS was released for other phones, but it can also be used for my phone but the phone needed to be flashed. Those Nokia people should have updated the current version to that software. It would have been better. But no. So, It took me a long time to understand the steps and download the software. Finally, I flashed my phone following the steps given in the Internet. The phone was flashed in a single attempt. If it wouldn't have flashed in the first attempt, I would have panicked with my hearts out. But, alas, the phone was updated. The new Anna OS was superb. I installed all the new applications and all other stuff. My happiness with the new OS was limited. The Nokia Ovi Suite popped a notification that there is a new software update for the phone. Without thinking, I started updating the phone. After the update was installed, I realized that the phone OS was totally changed back to the sucking Nokia symbian OS v 60.something . I was hyper angry. I couldn't think of anything. I tried flashing my phone like I did earlier. This time, the software version had changed. So, the software with which I was flashing was obsolete now. It was only valid for the previous update. D-a-r-n... D-a-m-n.! Now the result was that my phone had nothing. It wont start. I finally made up my mind and told my mom and then dad. But I kept on searching the net for some way to get it back. So, finally I did find a way to get back the sucking Nokia Symbian v60 OS. After many attempts, it did come back to the disgusting old look. There was no new update for the Symbian Anna for the new release of V60. Luckily, I found one the previous night. I downloaded it this morning and flashed once again. There were some technical difficulties in the beginning. When all was done, the phone remained white for a long time. But the new Anna 7.5 did appear again. I was later busy updating the software  applications. So, Symbian Anna is back for my Nokia 5800 Music Xpress.

P.S. : The post title was actually "K-E-W-L" which probably means cool. The internet adaptation of the same. Frankly, I couldn't think of a proper post title, so after much thought changed it to this more awkward title. Another thing that I wanted to add in this post was a photo of my phone with the new OS, but for that I have to get the DSLR Camera from my study table, then take a picture, then find the USB cable, then upload the photo into the Laptop and then upload here. Doesn't it sound like a lengthy process.?So did I thought. Whatever! Finally, I have some time to to be happy for my phone or something like that. :-|

SMS.

Dear Phone,

I know you are most eager to buzz in the most inappropriate time and always have the habit of not buzzing when free. Seriously, I have unsubscribed to all the SMS channels. So you will have the liberty to take rest for much more time. You don't have to expect messages from the Google either. The other day, my dad saw and said you have 25 unread messages. Oh, when I saw, I wasn't at all surprised to find that all the messages from the Google SMS Channels, which I had subscribed a long time back. And seriously, none of my friends would forward a message until its a national holiday or lets say a friendship day. Though you may receive some like one in a week or a fortnight, or even a month. Gone were the days when I used to send 20-40 messages per day to all the people in my contact list. It was just to finish the monthly message offer. Even now and then I recharge, I get the least to send the forwards. Even if I send, I am pretty sure, it would go directly to the trash after viewing. Never-the-less, thanks for the weekly/fortnightly messages from some of my friends. Thank you.  And now the service providers are also playing some stupid games mingling with the existing offer. So, I wouldn't over burden you with any more messages and its related recharges. You might ask what's the need of the existing 2500+ forward messages in you phone. Never mind. I will keep them for some time and forward one by one to the weekly/fortnightly messaging people. And the feature of the blinking thing on my Nokia 5800 Music Xpress whenever I get a new message, I get eager to know what it is and from whom it is just to find it from the stupid advertisement offering a 80% discount. I sometimes ought to believe such things, you know ! Well now, trying to bid farewell to the tiring messages. Hope, I will. Till then, wait ! What? You still here reading this. Really? Com'n dude. Really? Seriously? Man, I thought atleast by now you might have got bored of these never ending trashy, unproductive and really destructive posts of mine. If you have subscribed, I know you haven't but even then if by chance, if you have, I recommend you to unsubscribe and for those following me also !

Frankly,
Tired User
