The N-Gage 2
UPDATE AUG 29 2007: Nokia announces new N series models that work on a new N-Gage platform. Read more here.
N81 - the two circles on the right are buttons
UPDATE FEB 11 2007: The N-Gage 2 platform will be used on Nokia's Series 60 phones. There will be no actual new N-Gage 2! More information here.
There will be NO new N-GAGE anytime soon due to low sales. More information here.
I have had many queries asking how the N-GAGE 2 looks like. To settle this once and for all, here is a picture of the N-Gage 2.
There is one fan made pic of the N-Gage 2 spreading around also.
Well, it looks really feature heavy. For one, it has one big stereo speaker below the screen. And it is as compact as the QD. Too bad it's only a fan made image. And finally, the latest fake concept release:

The Number One FAQ
1)
Will existing first generation N-Gage games be compatible with the new N-Gage ready devices?

Similarly, the next generation N-Gage experience will not be compatible with the original N-Gage game deck or N-Gage QD devices. However Nokia is bringing a wide range of content to the next generation mobile gaming platform, including select N-Gage franchises.

7)
How do I put Mp3 files in the N-Gage?
Connect the N-Gage to your computer a compatible USB cable. A new drive should show up with the Ding Ding sound (If it doesn't, try restarting your device and computer). Place the Mp3 files in a folder (I name it Mp3), and safely disconnect by left clicking on the USB icon in the bottom right. This should clear the cache. Disconnect the cable, wait 10 seconds for the N-Gage to refresh its menu, access Music Player and you should be able to play the files.

8)
How exactly is the N-Gage Stereo?
Unfortunately, the N-Gage is stereo only in the Mp3 Player and FM Radio only. It uses a dedicated hardware to output the sound in stereo. Normal applications do not have access to this hardware via the standard programming interface. So if you use UltraMp3 to play your Mp3, it will be in mono. Likewise for games, applications, Recorder and other audio applications.

9)
How comfortable is the N-Gage for playing NES games?
This is in my opinion. It's not really like playing the actual system. In Super Mario 3 where Mario has to run continuously in order to fly, the timing is easy to slip because of the arrangement of the buttons. Twin Cobra presents problems where control is very precise and I find my fingers slipping off the directional pad in the heat of the moment.

What are the differences between the Classic and the QD version?
N-Gage Classic: More network support, Bigger, Slightly Lighter, Shorter Battery Life, FM Radio, Stereo Mp3, Mp3 Ringtone, Side talking, Non-Hot-Swap MMC, USB Mass Storage Device, Does not require Card Reader/Bluetooth Adaptor for files transfer
N-Gage QD: Less network support, Smaller, Slightly heavier, Longer Battery Life, No FM Radio, No Stereo Mp3, No Mp3 Ringtone, No Side talking, New Keypad Design. Hot Swap MMC, Rubber Grip, Brighter Screen, No USB Mass Storage Device, Requires Card Reader/Bluetooth Adaptor for files transfer

Does the N-Gage have Infrared?
No.
No.
12)
Can the built-in Music Player record from the built-in Mic?
No. The Music Player demands that the audio cable be connected, for good reason too, it is a Line In Recorder. If you wish to record from the Mic, you must use the Recorder program to record in AMR format (limited to 1 min per clip; use Extended Recorder (records in AMR/WAV) for unlimited). However, you should be able to connect a mic using the converter and record from it using the Music Player.

14)
Can I play games from the MMC(MultiMedia Card) while using Music Player?
No. The Music Player locks out the MMC and dedicates it to purely playing the music from the MMC. But you can try this: Load the game you want to play, press the Music Player, play the songs and go back to the game using Task Manager. Some games load themselves fully in memory and may still be playable, so it is worth a try.

15)
Is there any way to play games while listening to Mp3s?
Yes - you can use software like UltraMp3 and Mp3Go. The minus point is that the sound will be in mono and much lower quality (read:terrible). Another way is to load the game you want to play, press the Music Player, play the songs and go back to the game using Task Manager.

How do I send a file/image/ringtone/song/video from my N-Gage to another user via Bluetooth/Infrared?
Use FExplorer(free) and send the file. With this app, you can explore your phone like using Windows Explorer. It also has functions like restarting the phone and viewing running processes.

17)
Why is there a long delay for the sound to play when someone calls/SMS me?
Your MMC is probably the cause. Shift the sound files to your Phone Memory "nokia/sounds/digital" folder and set your Profile to load the sounds from there. Note that this cannot be done for MP3 files, they must reside on the MMC. You can also try defragging the MMC (see #48).

Is there any way to speed up the phone?
First method - Go to Extras > Log > Options > Settings > Log duration and set it to 1 day. Large log files take up more memory and slow the phone down.
Second method - There is a widespread tweak that claims to speed up the phone slightly. Some swear that their phones run faster while others notice no difference. Here's the tweak: First go to your To-do List, Make a note and input as follows, "Subject: Speed, Due Date: 01-29-2005 (mm-dd-yyyy), Priority: High" then press Done. Make a second Note and input as follows "Subject: Qoukie, Due Date: 01-29-2005(mm-dd-yyyy), Priority: Low" then press Done. Do not exit yet, Press the Option of your Subject note which is Speed and Mark as done. Then press the Option of your Subject note which is Qoukie and Mark as done. Now, reboot your mobile.

Why does my N-Gage Classic keep asking for the Date and Time everytime I change the Battery/MMC/SIM Card?
This is normal. You only have a few seconds to insert back the battery before the N-Gage looses track of time and you will have to input the date/time. Yes, this means that most of the time you change your battery/MMC/SIM card, you have to reenter the time.

Can I setup my N-Gage and Bluetooth Adaptor such that I can use the N-Gage to surf the Internet using my home connection and not GPRS?
Yes - it is possible. Simply connect the N-Gage to the PC via mRouter. Make sure PC Suite can successfully connect to it (i.e. it appears under Known Devices list). Finally, just use any web software (like Agile Mobile, Opera, Netfront) setting Access Point to None, to connect to this gateway, except the built-in browser and Java Programs (which allows only real GPRS ones). The mRouter acts as a gateway for the Internet. WARNING: The G icon must NOT appear when trying this method. If it does, it means that you are currently using GPRS Internet NOT bluetooth internet. Proceed with caution. I will not be responsible for excess GPRS charges.

Can the N-Gage play WMV/AVI/MPG/DAT/MPEG4/VCD/DVD video files?
No - you need third party software to play most video types. SmartMovie is one example for XviD AVI files and it offers full screen landscape viewing too. For the rest, I have not heard of any players as the bitrate for the other videos can be quite high. The only ones that you can play without additional software are 3GP and RealMedia(RM) files, both of which separate encoders are required.

The FM Radio is suddenly giving "App. closed FMRadio" - How do I fix it?
This happens if you select to save a radio station, but quit midway without entering a description. Start the radio again and immediately hit the "5" button or any other button that has a saved station. You should be able to get to the radio menu. Use this opportunity to change the radio station saved previously with a new one. However, if you have not set any radio stations, you will need to hard reset the phone using *#7370# which ERASES all your phone data and resets it back to factory defaults, so backup before performing this. (Known Bug)

Is is possible to change the location of the saved SMS to my MMC? I can't receive files bigger than 4MB in my QD!
Personally, I discourage this as it could cause problems when using the Music Player (it locks the MMC when playing songs). Having said that, MsvDriveE (msvdrivee.sis) is your answer. Applying this SIS file will set it such that new messages will go to E Drive, your MMC. Yes, this means all your old messages will be still in C:, you can try copying the files manually to your E Drive using FExplorer to access the old messages. WARNING: This program is known to cause problems. Test first before using it. For how to uninstall/remove it, see #96.
