The card size may  vary depending on where you buy it, but there should be some kind of  card included with the phone.You can replace the card that comes with the phone if you want to.Of course, if you buy the phone second hand you may not get a card with it at all.How do I access what's on the card?Most of the phone's applications such as Gallery and Music Player automatically detect what's on the card.However, if you want direct access to browse the card's files and folders, you can use the File Manager application:1. On the phone's standby screen press the white menu button.2. Select "Applications".3. Select "File Manager".4. Select "E: Memory Card". This will show the contents of the memory  card in a similar manner to the file manager on most computers.You can view or run a file by clicking on it, which should automatically  launch the appropriate application. For example clicking on an image  file will display the image in the Gallery, while clicking on an audio  file will start playing it in the Music Player.You can also install applications and games using File Manager. Just  click on the app or game file (they usually end in .SIS or .SISX) and it  will automatically start the installation process.The File Manager contains all the usual options for moving files,  deleting them, renaming them etc in its Options menu. Be careful when  deleting stuff though, as it will be gone forever if you don't have a  backup.  Which type of memory cards can I use with the 5800?The 5800 has a microSDHC card slot, so it can use both microSD and microSDHC memory cards. What capacity cards can I use on the 5800?Officially the 5800 can use cards up to 16 gigabytes in size, but  unofficially you may be able to use even higher capacity cards (though  Nokia won't guarantee that larger cards work). Which speed cards can I use on the 5800?The card slot should work with all current classes of memory card. The  higher the class, the faster the speed. Higher speed cards are  particularly important if you want to record high quality video with  your 5800, as slower cards will produce stuttery video files. Where is the card slot and how do I change cards?You can find the 5800's memory card slot on the left of the phone, it's  behind the lower door in the middle (the upper door is the SIM card  slot). Most 5800s are sold with an 8 gigabyte card already placed in the  slot.If you take the card out while the phone is still using it, it can cause  damage to the card. Because of this, the safest way to change cards is  to just switch the phone off using the power button at the top.The card slot is a "hot-swap" one, which means you can also change cards  while the phone is switched on, but first you will need to press the  power button briefly and select the "Remove Memory Card" option before  taking the card out. This option shuts down all the applications which  are using the card, so that it isn't damaged when you take it out. Aergh! It's really difficult to take the card out! It's really difficult to put the card in!You should be able to remove the card by pressing it in a short  distance, then letting it pop out towards you. Once it's popped out you  should be able to pull it the rest of the distance out with your  fingernails.However, if this last step is too difficult, try using a pair of tweezers/pincers to pull the card out.You can put the card back in by pressing it in and waiting for it to click into place.If you're having trouble putting a card in, remember that the brand name  of the card should face upwards (i.e. be on the same side of the phone  as the screen). Where should I buy memory cards? Do I have to buy Nokia-brand memory cards?You can use any brand of microSDHC or microSD card with the 5800. You do  not have to use Nokia-brand, other brands work fine (and the other  brands are usually a lot cheaper too).Try to make sure you buy the card in a reputable electronics shop. There  are a lot of counterfeit cards floating around the internet, some of  which look like they're made by a famous brand but are actually made by  someone else. Counterfeit cards may suddenly stop working, and if that  happens you could lose all the data you stored on them such as photos,  videos, music etc. How do I format a memory card?It's best to format phone memory cards in the actual phone, to make sure  they're formatted in a way that works properly with the phone.IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember that formatting a card wipes all the data from it, so be careful!To format a memory card on the 5800:1. On the standby screen, press the white menu button.2. Select "Applications".3. Select "File Manager".4. Double-click on "E: Memory Card".5. Select "Options".6. Select "Memory Card Options" and then "Format".You can use a similar procedure for renaming cards too, but choose "Name" instead of "Format". How long do memory cards last?In general, card manufacturers guarantee that memory cards last 5 or  even 10 years. However the real use time depends on how much you use the  card, especially how often you fill it up and delete stuff to free  space. If you never fill the card up and never delete stuff either, the  card may last longer than its guaranteed time. If you fill it up a lot  and delete stuff a lot, it may last shorter than its guaranteed time.It's probably a good idea to make sure you have a copy of your card's  data somewhere else (for example on your computer), in case the card  breaks, or in case it gets lost or stolen. You can learn to easily  transfer files back and forth between your memory card and computer by  reading our USB data transfer tutorial. What about SD and miniSD? Can I use them on the 5800?No, they're physically too large to fit into the 5800's card slot. Can I use microSD and microSDHC cards in miniSD and SD card slots?Yes, you can use microSD and microSDHC cards in miniSD and SD card slots  with the appropriate adaptors. You can see examples of microSD-miniSD  and microSD-SD adaptors below.These adaptors are very cheap because they're basically just bits of  plastic, and they usually come free with the memory card itself.Attachment 210860Can I use the phone's card in other phones? Can I use it in non-phone devices such as cameras, music players and computers?You can use microSD and microSDHC cards in any device with a compatible  slot. Do not format the card in another device though, as it may stop  working in your phone. What's the difference between microSD cards and microSDHC cards?They look physically identical, but the microSDHC cards can store much  more data. MicroSD cards can only go up to 4 gigabytes in size, but  microSDHC cards can go up to 32 gigabytes or even larger.The 5800 can use both types of card, so you don't need to worry which  one you buy. However, remember that the official capacity limit is 16  gigabytes, so you're taking a risk if you use larger cards.Many people refer to both card types as "microSD", perhaps because that format came first. I changed memory cards and my wallpaper disappeared!If you remove a card, you cannot access data on it. If you used an image  file from a memory card as your phone wallpaper, it will disappear when  you remove the card.You can get the wallpaper back by putting the card back in the phone. If  you want to keep the wallpaper and change the card, try transferring  the wallpaper's image file onto the phone's internal memory using the  File Manager application mentioned above. Why are these cards so small?Because people keep buying smaller and thinner phones, so manufacturers  have to come up with ways to reduce the phone's size. Making the card  smaller also makes the card slot smaller, which reduces the overall size  of the phone.MicroSD is the industry standard for phone memory cards now, practically all phone makers use it, so there's no way to avoid it.**************************************************  *********How to back up your data and settings on the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic ?<img src="http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/attachments/miscellaneous-applications-system-tools/210861d1264345940-you-new-5800-xm-must-read-nokia5800backup.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The 5800 is basically a pocket-sized computer, and like all computers  it's a good idea to back up your data and settings in case something  goes wrong.You can create a backup on the 5800's memory card, and you can also create a backup on a Windows PC using Nokia PC Suite. How to create a backup on the phone itself1. From the phone's main standby screen press the white menu button.2. Select "Applications".3. Select "File Manager".4. Select "Backup".5. Select "Options", then "Back Up Now".6. Select "Yes" (it will automatically replace any previous backup).The backup will be stored on the memory card currently in the phone's  memory card slot. If you want to store your backup physically separately  from your phone, you can take the card with the backup on it out and  put it somewhere safe.To restore the latest backup onto your phone, repeat the process above but choose "Restore" instead of "Back Up Now". How to create a backup on your computer using PC SuiteIf you have a computer running Microsoft Windows, you can install Nokia  PC Suite, which is a free collection of programs designed to work with  Nokia mobile phones. You can download PC Suite from its official website  by clicking here.Connect the 5800 to your computer with its microUSB cable, selecting the  phone's "PC Suite" mode when you connect. Start up PC Suite and select  the "Backup" option (which should be an icon that looks like a safe).  Follow the on-screen instructions to create the backup. **************************************************  *****************How to switch off Automatic Screen Rotation on the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic.Like many smartphones  nowadays, the 5800 has a feature called Automatic  Screen Rotation which automatically puts it into horizontal mode when  it's held horizontally, and vertical mode when it's held vertically.However, some people prefer to have their phone permanently in one mode, in which case they need to switch ASR off.Here's how to do that on the 5800:<img src="http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/attachments/miscellaneous-applications-system-tools/214740d1267762024-you-new-5800-xm-must-read-101.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/attachments/miscellaneous-applications-system-tools/214741d1267762026-you-new-5800-xm-must-read-.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />1. On the main standby screen, press the white menu button.2. Select "Settings".3. Select "Phone".4. Select "Sensor Settings".5. Select "Turning Control".6. Untick the box marked "Auto-rotate Display".7. Select "OK", then press the red button to get back to the standby screen.The phone will then stay permanently in vertical mode, except in  applications where horizontal mode is available manually through the  options menu.To switch Automatic Screen Rotation back on, do the steps above but tick the box marked "Auto-rotate Display".**************************************************  *HOW TO SILENCING A CALL VIA SENSOR                   HOW TO SNOOZE ALARM VIA SWIPE                   ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++  ++++++++++++++++     How to get rid of the flashing envelope icon on the Nokia 5800.If you've just put your SIM card in your Nokia 5800, you may have noticed a flashing envelope icon at the top of the screen.This icon indicates that the SIM card's own text message storage is  full. This doesn't actually cause problems on the 5800 because it stores  its messages in the phone's own memory, but the envelope can look a bit  annoying.To get rid of the flashing envelope:1. On the standby screen press the white menu button.2. Select "Messaging"3. Select "Options"4. Select "SIM Messages"5. Delete some or all of the messages from the SIM messages folder using the Options menu.This should make the flashing envelope go away. You only have to do this  once because when the SIM card is emptied it won't fill any more, as  the 5800 does not store messages on SIM cards.But why does the envelope appear in the first place?Some older and simpler phone  models do not store SMS text messages on  the phone itself, they use the  SIM card's memory instead. However, SIM  card memory is very limited  and gets full quite quickly. If a phone  relies on the SIM card for  storage and the SIM card is full, then it can  no longer receive  messages.The 5800 does NOT use SIM cards for  message storage, so it doesn't  actually make any practical difference  whether the SIM card is full or  not. However, the flashing envelope icon  will still appear if the SIM  card is full just to let you know about  it.**************************************************  ********<img src="http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/attachments/miscellaneous-applications-system-tools/214742d1267763752-you-new-5800-xm-must-read-.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Samsung Omnia HD and the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic are both  powered by Symbian S60 5th EditionWhat does "Symbian" mean? What is "S60"?Is DoTSIS  an official site owned by Symbian or Nokia?    No, we are 100% unofficial and independent and we're free to SAY  &  SHARE whatever we want about Symbian, Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and   everyone else involved with the Symbian world.    We've historically been a fairly technical site, but we're doing these   tutorials to try and help people, people new to the Symbian world get   the most out of their Symbian-based phones. A lot of new people are   discovering Symbian through the Nokia 5800, so we've started our   beginners' tutorial series by concentrating on that model.  For those of you who are wondering what these terms mean, here's a brief explanation:All modern computing devices, big or small, require an Operating System,  also known as an OS. The OS contains all the basic instructions that  the computer needs in order to do things.The most widely-used OS on home computers is Microsoft Windows. The most widely-used OS on smartphones is Symbian.Symbian is the operating system used on the Nokia 5800, on all of  Nokia's smartphones, and on smartphones from many other manufacturers  too such as Samsung, Sony Ericsson and LG.S60, also known as Series 60, is a software platform and interface that sits on top of Symbian.In the past there were other flavours of Symbian such as Symbian UIQ,  Symbian Series 80 and Symbian Series 90. However, nowadays all Symbian  phone manufacturers use Symbian S60. Because all Symbian phones now use  S60, the two terms are often used interchangeably. Which version of Symbian and S60 does the Nokia 5800 use?The 5800 runs Symbian version 9.4 and S60 5th Edition. These are the  very latest versions, and the 5800 is the first phone to run them.S60 5th Edition is sometimes written as S60v5. What about the S60 web browser? What's that?It's the web browser that is built into phones running Symbian S60. Do all of Nokia's phones run Symbian?No. Only their advanced phone models (the smartphones) run Symbian. The  ordinary cheaper models run a much simpler operating system called ISA.  ISA-based phones use an interface called Series 40, and they're often  referred to as "Series 40 phones".For various historical reasons some people mistakenly think Series 40 is something to do with Symbian, but it isn't. Are all Symbian phones made by Nokia?No. Nokia is the biggest maker of Symbian phones, but they're not the  only maker. Other companies such as Samsung, Sony Ericsson, LG and  others also manufacture Symbian devices. If Symbian is so widely-used, why have I never heard of it?Symbian is in over 250 million devices and about half of all smartphones  use it as their operating system. It's by far the most used OS on  portable computing devices.The reason you probably haven't heard of it is because it's not really a  consumer brand. Manufacturers who use it in their smartphones tend not  to mention it on the phone's box or on the start-up screen, so most  Symbian users aren't aware that they ARE Symbian users! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":-)" title="Smile    :-)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":-)" />However that may change soon as the old Symbian company has been  replaced by the Symbian Foundation, an organisation dedicated to  encouraging Symbian use and awareness. The Symbian operating system has  now been made royalty-free so any manufacturer can use it  free-of-charge, and the Symbian "source code" is about to become open  source, along much the same lines as Google's Android operating system.Don't worry if that last part sounded like gibberish, you don't need to  know anything about operating systems in order to use them. In fact you  probably use several different OSes every day, in your computer, your  phone, your games console, even your car if it's a new model. OSes  intended for public use hide their workings behind easy-to-use  interfaces so you never have to worry about what goes on behind the  scenes. What is a "smartphone" anyway?Well, different people have different definitions of the word, but  basically it means a combination of a computer and a mobile phone.  Smartphones are like pocket-sized PCs, and you can even attach a monitor  and full-size keyboard to many smartphones (including the 5800).If you want a very technical definition, we would say that a smartphone  lets you install and run native software. Native software means  applications and games that can access the phone's computing hardware  very directly, which means they can use the hardware to its fullest.Non-smart phones can run Java apps and games, but these have to run  through a special application called Java VM, which slows things down  and restricts what the Java software can do. Native apps can work  directly with the phone itself, and that's why smartphones can run more  advanced applications than normal phones. For example smartphone games  tend to have much better graphics than games on ordinary phones, because  smartphone games are native software.</blockquote>
