After more then 2½ years of service my Nokia E7 no longer wanted to charge the battery. After beginning a life on its own; mostly spontanious restarts and lately not wanting to hang up.

Having a Lumia 800 bussiness wise that was not going to be the successor of the E7. Using it on a daily basis as in between the E7 and the Galaxy SII plus made me long back to the E7. For example answering a call take two movements instead of one and it doesn’t have an auto answer function.

A colleague just got a Samsung Galaxy SII plus and was satisfied about it. Most colleageus having a HTC are not very satisfied about there device.

So I am using Linux now mobile as well. First impression of the Galaxy SII plus: good.

Windows Phone 7.8 was installed with Nokia Care Suite, making it a fresh install, no update.

Using it I noticed 3 differences so far:

  • Of course the home screen with smaller / more tiles
  • In WP 7.5 in the locked screen the music buttons where always visible, now only shortly after pressing the power button and the the disappear
  • Nokia maps faces north instead of east

A challenge was making screenshots: http://qatsi.ath.cx/diverse/lumia_2013-01-26.html

All the points mentioned earlier still exist
