No commentsReview on Nokia N85
Looks like I’m starting to take long intervals between my posts.
Anyways, just felt like blogging about something.
After some time of testing some China phones, finally decided to get a better phone for some functions I needed.
I made some research and I was trying to look for a phone with the functions I need.
Was looking for a decent camera, GPS, 3G and something where I can get some cool apps.
I had a some liking towards slide phones and after some research, seems like Nokia phones has a lot of functions. Nokia’s operating system , Symbian is unique and caught my attention for some reason. I seriously dislike spending a lot on phones but i really like the functions in the phones. My dad agreed to get me one, so I was deciding and thought of giving it a try and decided on Nokia N85.
Now have a look on the phone I decided.(I was lazy to snap pictures of the real phone I bought, so I grabbed these pictures from the net)


I guess it looks better with these photo’s.
Now lets go to my review. So far, its been a good phone to me.
I like the design and the phone itself. This phone is a dual slide phone, the slide upwards is fine but the downwards a little bit hard. And as you can see, it has a navi wheel but I don’t really think its a very cool thing. It has a 5 MP camera with Carl Zeiss lens and the quality of the images are really nice. It even has an FM transmitter function, where we can transmit music to a FM radio within a range.
And as for me, since I still don’t have a good internet connection 3G works just fine for me. I can get a speed of 70kbps when downloading a file.
Other than that, the phone’s firmware can be upgraded easily. Just check for updates on the phone and it will inform you if there is an upgrade, just use 3G or WiFi and you’re done.
As I said, Symbian phones are unique and has many cool apps and its very flexible. I even used an application to take screen shot of my mobile. And now these are real photo’s of my mobile interface. Have a look on the apps I have on my phone :
(Not a Celcom user. Using Celcom, just for the 3G. Its a sad thing Maxis and DiGi got no 3G plan for a week or a day)


So these is my review on N85. I guess I’m more than satisfied with it.
Its a great phone and would recommend it to anyone and I thank God cause I have an opportunity to get such a phone.
How to set GPRS/MMS in China Mobile for DiGi & Maxis
Recently, China mobiles are becoming famous in Malaysia. Most Malaysian have a concept that China mobiles are bad without realizing all those Nokia and Sony is made in China. China is improving so fast, and in fact they still hold the the dual sim dual standby technology. I have personally tried many China mobiles and found out that it is really good except it has some bugs. But China is growing so fast that, every new production of phones is with less bugs and more functions.
Now, this is a tutorial on how to get your GPRS/MMS (Malaysia) to work on China phones.
1. Please make sure you have activated your GPRS & MMS.
If you haven’t, please do so. For DiGi press *128# and for Maxis press *100# and navigate the menu for GPRS & MMS activation and request for the activation first.
2. Then, navigate your phone to Services.
3. There you will find Data Account with certain default data accounts. Select one of those and click edit.
4. Now input these settings into the data account :-
DiGi GPRS
Account Name : DiGi GPRS
APN : digiwap
User : digi
Password : *Leave it empty
Auth. type : Normal
For DiGi, you need to set another data account for MMS with the settings below :
Account Name : DiGi MMS
APN : digimms
User : mms
Password : mms
Auth. type : Normal
Maxis GPRS
Account Name : Maxis WAP GPRS
APN : net
User : maxis
Password : net
Auth. type : Normal
5. Then save this setting and go back to the Services menu. There you will find WAP/Browser, enter it and select settings.
Click on edit profile and select edit profile and input these settings.
DiGi
Profile : DiGi GPRS
Homepage : http://www.google.com
Data account : DiGi GPRS (Just need to select)
User name : digi
Password : *Leave it empty
Maxis
Profile : Maxis WAP GPRS
Homepage : http://www.google.com
Data account : Maxis WAP GPRS (Just need to select)
User name : maxis
Password : wap
OK, now this is the tricky part in China phones. In that same menu you will see Connection Type which is originally set to HTTP. In our setting’s we also need to set it it HTTP but don’t just leave it like that.
6. Select HTTP and enter it and then you will find proxy address and proxy port. These are the most important part of setting up this GPRS/MMS.
Digi
Proxy address : 203.092.128.188
Proxy port : 80
Maxis
Proxy address : 202.075.133.049
Proxy Port : 80
7. Now for MMS, navigate to the MMS messaging area and you will find MMS Settings. Select Server Profile and edit any of those with these settings :
DiGi
Profile : DiGi MMS
Homepage : http://mms.digi.com.my/servlets/mms
Data Account : DiGi MMS
Connection Type : HTTP ( Please refer no. 6 to input the proxies)
Proxy address : 203.92.128.160
Proxy Port : 80
User : mms
Password : mms
Maxis
Profile : Maxis MMS GPRS
Homepage : http://172.16.74.100:10021/mmsc
Data Account : Maxis WAP GPRS
Connection Type : HTTP ( Please refer no. 6 to input the proxies)
Proxy address : 202.75.133.49
Proxy Port : 80
User : maxis
Password : wap
Thats all, its so easy. Just turn off your phone for 5 minutes and on it back and start enjoying GPRS & MMS in China mobiles. If you would like to place this tutorial elsewhere, please give credit and link back to me. Have fun !!
