Re: n8 music player...

Does this happen all the teime even if you restart the phone?

 

If the phone slows down and start chewing your battery fire up the task manager and see what you are running and shut other tasks down. Probably you have one browser open and some app using the CPU...

 

IF this is too much work for you, get Swiss Manager Pro, a paid app with which you will be able to see any tasks eating CPU or ram and will close things automatically for you.

Re: n8 music player...

Where do you store your music ? If on a memory card it may be an issue with that. 300 to 400 tracks is nothing and shouldn't slow down the phone at all, I have a few 1.000 without issue but store my music on in built memory, you hear less issues with music stored on built in memory than with that stored on memory card . If you are using SD card, it may be worth formatting it.

Good Luck

I don't know how many songs I Have in my sd card( 8gb card from 5800) but know all my new songs are going to inbuilt memory... I put them into sound carpet and not the music carpet... I don't know it that's a problem... Works well but know... No ><

Re: n8 music player...

I normally just connect phone as an external hard drive, create a folder in E and name it Music, then just drag and drop my music into that folder, but run albums through Windows Media Player first and check album info (right click on Album icon in WMP) then safely remove phone and refresh music player, and it all works fine !
