N97 Mini Nokia messaging hangs

hi all....
nokia messaging used to work fine on my N97 Mini until I updated the firmware to v30.0.004 from the earlier 12.x
now after i configure my gmail account the messages either dont update or the phone hangs. i cannot remove the mailbox either!! i cannot get rid of the nokia email software from the phone.
please help

If that word(phrase in your case) is added to the predictive dictionary you can't do that and the device consider it as a single word, if the word is not used frequently you will not get this so stop using it for sometime(as a single word) or a better way i can think of now is to hit the space bar without fail for those kind of words.
If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

N97 Mini Move message folder to Mass Storage

Ok, I'd like to get this right for once and for all. I'm challenging the Move message to Mass storage feature. These are the steps:
0) I have two message in my Inbox, Remove and replace the battery and switch on the device. After that I format E:Mass Storage and close File manager
1) In Messaging Options I select Settings and than Other and change the Memory in user to E:Mass Storage
2) I'm asked if I'd like to "copy all messages to the new message memory". I click on "Yes"
3) I'm asked if I'd like to "Save original messages" and I click "No" as I'd like to use the new stoage exclusively
After that the Inbox is empty.

Hi Guys.
My problem is slightly different.
I have a Nokia N97 Mini
The other day i was trying to speed up my phone, so i did the following:
1. Entered menu
2. Selected option for: Settings
3. Selected option forhone
4. Selected option for:Application Sett.
5. Selected option for:Messaging
6. Selected option forther
7. Set memory in use from: C: Phone memory to E: Mass Memory
At the time it asked me if i wanted to copy my messages or if i wanted to move them, so i moved the,.
Then i realised the phone messaging feature got even slower so decided to move them back and go back to original settings.
So went through the procedure again and did reverse of step 7 above.
But this time it didnt ask me to move or copy the messages.
I have gone into PC Suite, and backed up my messages whilst having the settings to E: Mass memory in step 7, then restoring back onto the phone with C: Phome memory in step 7.
This didnt work either.
Any ideas?

N97 Mini - popup message [**bleep**]

My Nokia Flagship N97 Mini currently pops up messages like
"Invalid password, Check the password in Profile > Credential > Password."
**bleep**

**bleep** I like that =)

N97 mini text message editor shuts down by itself!

Whenever I try to write something in capital letters, the predictive text shuts down the whole messaging app! I just found this today trying to respond to my friend before I figured out what is wrong.
To answer his question where I am, I tried to write
"I'm in DC right now"
However, I only got to "I'm in D", as when I pressed C (I was using qwerty keyboard), the whole thing closed. It happened several times, and I could only respond once I turned predictive text off. Now, every time I try to just type in "DC" in the message with predictive text on, the whole thing shuts down!
Since this is a NAM phone, it's still running old firmware (wonder why updates are only available to phones in some parts of the world and not other?). Did anyone else experience that? Does new firmware fix it? Or am I again the only unlucky one with the weirdest bug

Hi,
I have version 12.2.110.232.01 on N97 mini and text editors (for SMS and email) delete the message and shut down the application whenever predictive text is enables and I type two consecutive capital letters....
Where you able to find a fix for this other than deactivating predictive text option?
Thanks for your help
Best regards
Gus

Blackberry Connect for the N97? (Nokia Messaging ...

DAVISFIELDS, VANDELAY, JEREMIAHN, DEAN98 ARE YOU LISTENING?
I know Nokia was pushing BlackBerry Connect for some E Series devices last year. Are they going to work with RIM to get this to the N97? The current solution of having to open three different programs for Call Log, Email traffic, and SMS Traffic blows. I can't get HTML views of exchange mail? What century is this?
If I want HTML views of any email, I have to download a second program called "Nokia Messaging" that apparently doesn't conflict with the "Nokia Messaging" that's installed on the phone already? I'm still limited to html views only of my popular webmail provider accounts.
Tech support (even Tier 2) at nokia doesn't even know what nokia messaging is. Private Messaging people in the Messaging team in the forums here doesn't work. I think it's time to recognize that the N97 and support that goes with it is half baked and it's time to sell my N97. Just to show there are no hard feelings, here's the constructive part of my criticism.
There should be a single view of all email traffic, sms traffic, and call logs. I should be able to go into this single view, and see at:
4:00pm I called Bill Rogers
4:05 I received an email on my gmail account from John Holmes
4:09 I sent an SMS to Michael Chong
4:20 I Received an SMS from Cheech Marin
4:27 I got a call from Chuck D
4:58 I sent a message to Michael Gasol from my exchange account
5:01 I sent a gmail message to [email protected]
The list should be sorted by date by default but have other sortable and search entries.This doesn't take into account that the Blackberry Connect software integrates seamlessly with their BBM (IM) client, so I also see instant messages in the list too.
Tech support at Nokia should know how to use their FLAGSHIP model. Maybe a training course on the available products?
Hire a development and UI manager for the messaging interface. The N97 is difficult to navigate at best and having such a terrible (let me repeat that, TERRIBLE) interface, makes it likely that end users think their phone is malfunctioning. A trained monkey could figure out not to ship your messaging product until it worked better.
Oh yeah, and the message store on the N97? If I plug my N97 into my USB port as a mass storage device, my messages get pushed onto the main memory where there is practically no storage! Now I have an extra two inboxes (for exchange and SMS) that I need to check once I've unplugged my phone. And if you have a message in your inbox while in landscape mode and the envelope indicator is on the upper left hand corner next to the clock, you can't press on the envelope to go to the new message. It works in portrait just fine, and when in the home screen the envelope is on the upper right and works.
Nokia, I think it's time I make a youtube video of why your N97 messaging interface sucks so hard. I think the largest reason I'm writing this is because I haven't gotten a response from 3 or 4 of the Nokia employees in the messaging team that I've tried to message in here.
Yeah, I'd appreciate a response. Otherwise, I think I've reached the tipping point where I sell this garbage, start slagging Nokia and dragging their names through online mud.

N97 Mini email message deletion

Evening all,
All of a sudden I cannot delete email messages that appear on my email account on the phone. The wifes is all ok, it's just mine. When they appear I mark them all and then try and delete and the message "could not delete" appears every time.
I have installed the latest phone software version last night but to no avail.
Any advice?
Thanks

Try deleting all your mailboxes and internet access points, and nokia messaging if it's installed. Remove sim and battery, reboot phone without sim, allow to fully boot up. Then re-insert sim and set up a mailbox in the standard email client, hopefully this will work.
Or try profimail, though you shouldn't have to !
Good Luck

Nokia Messaging hanging often - 5230

Howdy. My Nokia Messaging app seems
to hang quite frequently. I cannot access
my inbox without it just hanging. I can
neither recieve my emails, I'm just
restricted to sending them. Apart from
the odd once or twice when it actually works on it's own accord, I haven't
found a way around it.
Help??

Hello Madal,
I had this same problem on my E71. To resolve this issue, sign up for the Nokia Messaging service on http://email.nokia.com first. If you've already signed up, then log into your Nokia Messaging account on http://email.nokia.com and send yourself an install SMS via the "Install now" button. After you send yourself a new SMS from email.nokia.com, you'll likely receive two SMSs, but disregard the one that has a download/install link in it since you've already installed Nokia Messaging. You want the provisioning SMS that asks you for your Nokia Messaging password and access point. Once you see that screen, you are good to go.

N97 / Gmail / Nokia Messaging - temporary solution

Hi, Was having the same problems as a lot of people with Nokia messaging only occasionally syncing with gmail or simply not syncing at all.
I've found a temporary solution which is working great.
I've set up an email account with my ISP (hopefully you have a spare to use ro can maybe try a different free server) [email protected] and set gmail to forward all incoming email to this new address while keeping email in the gmail inbox.
I've now set nokia messaging to use my new email address - I now have emails arriving constantly.
Not a fix just a workaround I know.
My gut feeling is there is some intrinsic problem between Nokia and Gmail that is affecting some accounts that needs to be fixed. I hope it happens. I'd love to be able to simply connect to my gmail account and have it working.
Cheers Mick

N97 mini - close messaging application

A couple of times now the Messaging application was stuck and didn't respone to Exit actions. Leaving only removing and replacing the battery to get rid of it. Is there a more subtle way to close a rouge application?
I'm adding new topics to push Nokia N97 is the worst phone ever. Problem after p... of of the front page.

You might consider installing 'handy taskman'. Download a trial from http://epocware.mobi (you can download this straight to your phone, don't need to use a computer)
This application can be launched the usual way you'd launch the nokia task switcher (press and hold the menu key for a while), and it gives you an option to close an app, or if the app is not responding, it gives you an option to forcekill the app.
However, it's not free. You'd need to purchase a key after the trial expires.
Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Cry, and the world laughs louder :-)

Nokia Messaging memory usage

Hello,
Couple of points related to Nokia Messaging
memory usage. Nokia Messaging stores, by default, 2kb of each message
on the device. Even if you have hundreds of emails, they don't take up
much space until you start getting into attachments.
The
deleted items folder in Nokia Messaging does not clear itself
automatically in this release, so if you've been deleting a lot of
emails on the device and are encountering issues with memory, go into
that folder and choose options to empty it.
We are
investigating the memory consumption on the N97 with Nokia Messaging,
as some of you have reported. The reason we don't offer message
storage on the memory card is that removing of the memory card with the
messages stored on there could cause some serious issues with correctly
syncing your email.
We do hear you on the calls for
storage somewhere other than the C drive. The amount of space that the
emails should take up on your device is minimal, but we are open to
feedback and fixing problems as they arise.
Message Edited by davisfields on 13-Aug-2009 10:46 PM

As netoak stated in the above post. My problem with N97 is the same, I have a number of applications that needs to be installed on (E) Mass Storage. By running these applications and have a message comes through. Be it, text, picture, multimedia, it will get stored on the phone memory which eventually gets full and can only be deleted as it cannot be copied or moved (connect to PC back up, delete original from phone memory and then restore from PC to Mass Storage is a royal joke) to Mass Storage.
What good is a flagship phone that meant to be rich for multimedia when a couple of e-mails or messages with attachments will render it's useless.
So if these issues below are not looked at I'm soon to trade my N97 in for something else, and neither are my friends and family going to get N97 because they already know that their non-N97 phones works fine and mine is having loads of issues.
Surely these can be fixed in the next major update of your firmware?
- Functionality to copy or move selected message from C to E. We're jumping through hoops just to do the most simplest of tasks like moving messages. Inability to move messages and e-mails between these two storage locations is really, really, 1990's and not mobile computer as Nokia trying claim N97 is.
- Settings to be persistent that messages go to E when stuff on E are being used.

N97 mini - Music player bugs

Opening the podcast in the music player reveals several options missing, like least played, never played etc. As a frequent user of podcast, the options are used all the time. They are missing in N97 mini, however available in N97, N86, 5800.

Add contact detail to a message Nokia N97 Mini

Hi, I bought a Nokia N97 Mini in January, and I still can't resolve this problem: I don't know how to add a contact detail to the body of any text message. I have had several Nokia phones, for years, and I remember that if you wanted to send a text message, lets say to a friend and this friend asked you for someone else's phone number in order to send it you just start a new message> insert content> contact detail, then you just chose the contact you'd like to send the phone number of and that's it. Now, I can't figure out how to do it with my new phone. Sorry if I sound silly, it's just that I don't know where else to look for. Thnx!

Hi,
I beleive you are using MS Outlook.
Try the following workaround.
Manual sync
Open Nokia Ovi Suite--> Sync--> Sync option--> Uncheck the sync automatically everytime you connect the device.
Then Sync--> Sync now--> Contact,
Repair the "pst" and the "ost" Outlook files as in the following location.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\SCANPST.EXE
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\SCANOST.EXE
Right click the above mentioned exe file and 'Run' it.
NOTE
It's adviced to take a back- up of the user's Outlook folders to avoid any loss of information.
Check with Microsoft support pages for more information.

No notification of Messages in N97 mini

My phone has only +100 contacts and +3900 messages but whenever a new message arrives there is no notification about it on the screen nor the ringtone is played for the sms
When i format the phone the problem is not there but as i restore my data (contacts and messages) back the same problem contineus but when i restore the same data to any other phone ( including n97 mini ) the problem is not there.
Also when i try to restore the backup which i had originally restored in my n97s from n95 8gb ( my previous phone ) the restroing process hangs when it reaches the messages but it works fine in other phones
I went to nokia care they said we can't help it !!!
According to them there is a virus or 1 one of the message is corrupt
still to make sure i scanned my phone with a mobile anti virus
but as far as i know there is no virus known till now for s60 phones and how can a message be corrupt as it is a single 1 kb file ???
when i explained this to them they said that nokia gives garuntee till 999 messages but i could'nt find this writen anywhere in the end user agreement
and their suppervisor suggested me to write my problem here.

it's possible i guess that the database has become corrupt.
a soution might be to syncronise, or drag the messages to your computer using the ovi suite, or even better the pc suite. delete them from the phone and then drag them back again.
though i can't for the life of me think why you don't just delte them.
There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

N97 mini: messages

Hi,
I have a very annoying problem with my new Nokia N97 mini.
When I get a message from someone, my phone is only showing me the number of this person instead of showing me the name of the person. This is very annoying because I don't know all those numbers...
Can please anyone help me? Because a lot of stores where I told my story couldn't help me.
Thanks

It will be multiple entries, you either have two manes attached to one number, or in settings in contacts you are either using multiple memories or sim memory, you need to set to Phone memory as source for caller ID to work. Best way to check for multiple entries is to go through your contacts in Ovi Suite, many posts on this subject, it's always multiple entry !!
