hello people,

this is my first post here, so i start with a quick introduction:

i´ve been using a lot of different nokia-phones over the last 10 years, but had never used the phones as a music-player.

Until i bought a 5230 last year. This phone was used a music player. the s60v5-music player software was good, everything fine (well... "gapless playback" is still something i missed, but i come back to this later).

now i would like to upgrade to a faster device like the nokia 701, but...

i had sorting/tagging issues with the music player in symbian anna, when trying out the nokia c7, so i gave the phone back.

and now my questions:

1. does the music-player in symbian belle allow the old sorting used in s60v5? or at least any correct sorting of albums even if they are compilations?

2. does the music-player in symbian belle alllow the creation of your own equalizer presets?

3. i nearly dont dare to ask... could it be that nokia managed it, to get the player play the songs of an album gapless?

some remarks:

to 1: if not, the solution would be to retag all my music??

to 2: why did they remove the option? is there a plan to get it back, maybe with a belle-update?

to 3: does really nobody at nokia listen to albums that need continuous play? live albums, classical music, electronic music, dj-mixes?

thank you for reading, and for possible answers!

have a nice day

Yes, i was totally frustrated when start Nokia N8 music player after Nokia 5800 music player.

Does Belle have same player as Anna or it would be improved?

Ya, i am also not happy to c the degraded music player in anna. I mainly need manual graphic equalizer (also a better set of headset as in sony or atleast samsung).
I wish, nokia takes care in belle, as it always does for its customers.

Really I agree to all of you, I have bought 701 recently and found that the bundled handsfree cord button wont work to change the songs,
Also the sorting pattern is not so good, even my c2-00 has better music player features than 701.
I would like to suggest nokia some points for 701 music player:
1. please add search option in all songs menu just like that of c2-00.
2. When i used 'view by albums' option it shown artists and albums also in list please clarify that and guide me here.
3. It would be great if you would add sorting options like by artists, albums, etc.

Has someone tested if the Belle Music Player can play an album without gaps between the tracks? It's horrible to listen to a great album and to hear a gap between the single songs ...

unfortunately I'm going to disappoint all of you...Running belle on C7...and Music Player is more polished...but all those sorting problems are still there

Running my new N8 on Belle. (haven't treid it on Anna by the way ... )

1 conclussion : Very Disapointed (with capital V & A). what a piece of **bleep** it is !!

I really don't know where to put my disagree with this sh*t. It seems like there are several topics about it.

I've had a couple of Nokia's in the last years, but this is really... ( I don't have any words for it) after the upgrade to Belle.

You CAN'T properlily play a music album which is on a memory-card or on the phone itself !!!!

I can only play songs from an alphabatical list with singers. Not from an album !!! Making a playlist from a list of albums is also not possible ...  Made changes on the laptop with putting albumnames, changing artistnames, made m3u of playlists. Nothing works !!!

Why have they made it like this ??

I had a N86 8MP : perfect. You can choose what you want to play ; album or song. You could change the picture of the album. It had a little equalizer. Even my older 6500C had it !!! And therefore my 6300 had it !!!!!

Why made a change of something that was good ???

I really hope that the upgrade to Belle 112 (which is STILL NOT available for N8, but only for 700) whill resolve this kind of problems .... but I got a glitch that it won't ....

Bought an expensive N8 cause of the 16Gb inside and addional 32GB & 12MP camera, but iI can't used it like any other MP3-device ......  I really think it wil be my last Nokia ....

And this is not the last issue with Belle ...  Navigation is navigation. In the N86 you got some extra's with compass & searching sattelites & tripmeter... Non in the N8 ...

Looking pictures like dia from map to map is still not possible ... Only the complete list ...

Sorry Nokia, but you missed it completly with this "High End" phone....
