Stephen, Well I did manage to install Talks on my own. I had to do a hard reset on the phone first. I then just kept pressing soft key one. I then had to play around with trying to select the general profile because for some reason it came up in either silent or pager profile and wouldn't connect to Nokia PC suite until I got it into the normal profile. I didn't worry about the date even though you had said talks wouldn't install without the correct date. It did install and with a date that was like 2006. I then went in and fixed the date. Here is my issue now that I'm hoping you can shed some light on. I've not played around all that much with the Xpress yet but I really like it so far. It is going to be a learning curve. I've had to do a hard reset and reinstall Talks on the 5800 three times because for no reason that I could figure out at the time the screen and keyboard would lock up and I would get a message telling me to press the correct keys to unlock. No key combination that I could figure out would unlock the phone's screen or keyboard. I also tried pushing down the lock slider on the side which did nothing. I would then have no choice but to do a hard reset and start all over. Pulling the battery did no good either. I figured out that I must have been sliding down the lock switch to get this to happen but sliding it down again would not unlock the phone. Have you had any experience with this happening and is there a way to get the screen and keyboard to unlock without having to do a hard reset? I did some research and it looked like this might have been a problem on the 5800 and also the 97. Any help would be appreciated. I really don't want to have to reset the phone again. Very time consuming.

The reason I say this is if you got a overseas model of the 5800 express music and a sighted person entered the date like they do for the US version! Then it is incorrect. Example: if they enter todays date 11/06/2010 on the overseas model of the phone that would be June 11th 2010 and not November 6th 2010. So what I'm getting at hear is the date may be incorrect on the phone. Sorry, it sounds like you are going to need that sighted help that you don't want. <smile> Myself, when I get a new phone! So I do not have to worry about what format that models requires I always follow the following. I always enter the date in so that the Month and day are the same and it is a month/day after the signed date on the file. So in this case, I would use 11/11/2010. Then I can correct it after I get the phone up and talking. This saves a lot of headakes. Also keep in mind, the 5800 express music and other newer phones the automatic lock time is about 40 seconds to about 1 minute. Also when installing Talks on a touch screen phone unless you know whare the SoftKeys are it can be hard. This also comes in to knowing whare you need to make additional selection or not. For Talks, There are no additional selections to make accept for SoftKey1 for the first 3 screens when installing Talks and this will very if you are installing over a old copy and or if you get the prompt to select language. So your best bet would to be keep pressing SoftKey1 every 5 seconds for about 7 times and just let it install to the phone memory. Signed: Stephen Giggar Skype: dr-phone.
