Hi again.
You can also hold down the end key who's location is mentioned in my
message earlier in this thread until you get that menu that lets you
change profiles or switch off or activate power saving etc I believe
there is a lock keypad in there though that's not quite as convenient as
the two soft key things. Plus sometimes and I can't figure out what
makes the condition different it'll just ask you if you want to end all
active data connections instead of bringing up that menu. Weird. I do
believe the soft key thing doesn't work unless you're on the standby
screen, which is really annoying. At least on my E72 it doesn't. *Growl*
so you'd hit menu until you land on the standby screen, then do key 1
key 2 and you have to do that pretty quickly or you'll do any number of
incorrect things the most amusing of which is actually manage to launch
what ever key 1 is assigned to and launch what ever key 2 is assigned to
yes I have managed to do this before, and the other thing that you can
do is launch what ever key 1 is set to do mine is contacts, and
immediately close it and land back in the standby screen with the keypad
still unlocked and looking really smart. *grins*. That is one thing that
I don't like about these particular Symbian because that is also how
you unlock them and if I had a penny for every time my E72 has came to
life in my pocket from a locked keypad to a definitely unlocked and
troublesome keypad I could buy you another e5 just for good measure.

It is set to automatically lock after about 30 seconds. Try it out
and if it is not long enough for you before locked then you can do the
following as a toggle soft key one, top left followed by soft key 2,
top right to lock and unlock. Keep the questions coming Lol!

Thanks Stephen Gigger, I read most of it through but5 did not get to
Steve's
question. The Talks Key defaults to the one to the left of the
spacebar but
there is within Talks the facility to change the Talks key.

Hi and thanks very much for your in depth explanation of this phone.
I have a question that i dont think has been answered as yet. Where
abouts on the handset is the talks key? I am using an e65 at the
moment and the talks key is situated just above the volume buttons
on the right hand side of the handset. Regards. Stephen faill

Hi.
I have an E5 here. Mine has been worn out and now reboots
spontaneously any old time it feels like it. Getting it to run for
10 minutes at a time is something to brag about. It was dropped in
a mud hole at one point, I think that may have an affect on it.
It's a nice phone, got the podcatcher built in, the battery life
isn't too bad. Mine got around 3 days, that's ok for me my e72
doesn't really get any better with a much larger battery. You will
probably like the E5 well enough. The speaker gets pretty darn
loud but has this auto gain stuff where it makes sounds that
weren't so loud in what ever sound you are playing become very
loud like the breaths of someone on a podcast become as loud as
their speech when you have the volume turned all the way up, but
turn it down a couple of clicks and it starts working properly. It
isn't distortion, it seems to be some kind of auto gain. My e72
has more low end frequency in the speaker than the E5, but the E5 is
louder than the E72. The e5's microphone is ok, it seems to be
fairly good for recordings as phones go. The e5 has a micro sd card
slot located in the battery compartment so you have to remove the
battery to get to it. I have had a 32gb card in there on mine. The
sim card is also located under the battery.
Everything I did with it seemed to work ok, internet radio, fm
radio, music player, web browser, email, podcasting... I had talks
and Mobile Speak both installed on it used Mobile Speak in demo.
The back on it is stainless steel like the E72 but smooth no
ridges except for a line of writing near the bottom edge of the
cutout for the camera lense.
It does have a 3.5mm headphone jack for regular headphones and I
used it a lot on mine with no issues.
One big annoyance with it is that the power button is the end key.
Hold down the end key to power on, hold down again to get the menu
of options to switch to other modes like silent or meeting or
power it off, or activate power saving, or disconnect sd card etc
etc.
There are two buttons one on each side of the phone that you press
in on at the same time to get it to release the battery cover.
The phone's vibrator is the most vicious of any phone I have ever
seen. You can hear the motor even if it doesn't vibrate on the
table from feet away. It is a lighter weight phone than the E72
and made more cheaply. It does have a faster processor, if not
very much so, to make up for some of it's body being made of
plastic where Nokia's other phones that were made similar to it
used more metals. The E5 is thicker than the E71 or E72, but not
so much so. It is also a bit wider which results in slightly
larger buttons on the keyboard.
It has only one configurable button, and that's the text messaging
key above the end key, it's a long horrizontal bar that extends
from the right arrow key to the right edge of the phone and above
which is key2 and below which is the end key. The same setup is on
the left side but the horrizontal bar on that side is the menu key
and naturally below it is send and above is key 1. There are a
long rocker bar on the right side for volume and that about does it

hi elanor.
thankyou for your response in this matter.
can you tell me what the battery life is like with this model?
i have no intention to use the e mail or social networking
functions, so they will be switched off, which i presume will
help battery life.
i have yet to use a qwerty keyboard - how is it to use on this
model compared to a regular keypad?
can you also tell me how sound quality is and if there is a 3.5mm
socket for headphones?
sorry for bombarding you with all these simple questions, but you
are the best person to ask as you have one.
kind regards.
