N82 Dead & Alive


My N82 Nokia phone is about 1.5 years old. Few months back the battery started giving problem, it only last about 1 day after a full charge. So I replaced it with a new one. Unfortunately, the new battery did not extend its life. In fact, it died. I mean, totally no breathing...totally blank. So I just leave it in the book shelf, and got myself a new phone.

After so many months, I've almost forgot about it. Surprisingly, hubby "IM" me and told me he managed to save the phone and now it's back to normal. He tried to rescue the phone using several methods. He tried to connect the phone to the computer through USB cable and update the software. Unfortunately, it did not work, as the the computer can't detect the hand phone. Seriously, my phone was totally cannot on, how can the computer detect anything? After several failed attempts, finally hubby got an idea. He then tried hard reset + update software at the same time. In this way, he able to force the phone initiate for 1~2 second, just enough time for the computer to register the phone and proceed to update the software. So, the software update was successful, and my phone come back to life again!

Honestly, I like N82 more than my current N79. Most importantly, its camera perform better. Want to see the difference?

This photo is taken using N82. It's clear and sharp.

And this is from N79. With the exactly same setting, the photo came out a bit blur. Disappointing?

Thanks to hubby to safe my lovely Nokia N82. Some of my food blog photos will still rely on it. Welcome back!

Mummy Zuan, welcome!

Kadus Mama, I had one Sony Ericson before the N82. The camera is ok, but I don't quite like the mechanism of the lens protector.
