I can’t play any flv videos after the v.20 update! Flash Lite 3.1 sucks! I hate it! 3.0 was way better!

By not hackable, do you also mean that it cannot use self signed applications?

No, after signing you can install any application.

By the way, Nokia OVI maps has an updated version!
June 1st, 2010 at 2:15 pm
After update to v.20, the phone became unstable, hangs and sometime reboots without reason. I do not recommend this update if you are not using OVI maps.

@vicky:
Hi i dont know about the problem but i think there is some attack of virus or did u tried to hack the phone.
The best possible thing is master reset ur phone its completely like formating ur pc no backup will remain and company settings will be stored with default firmware(os).pls u backup ur contacts.
To master reset type *#7370# (just google up nokia reset)
