5800 Contacts problem

Whenever i create a new msg and select one particular contact and when i search for another contact which "exists" in my list.. It doesn't appear at all !!!!.. Is this prob might be cos of sim-card? I had this prob quite recently and not on the day of purchase. Its not even a month since i bought it.
This problem was not there until i copied things from PC to 5800 Xm. This problem was also experienced in my previous N96. It still remains in both my phones. This prob was not resolved despite of all possible "Reset" and flashing of mem in my N96. Have not tried on this one but..
Is there any possibility that a "PC" virus can attack my phone and stay fixed despite all reset and etc?? Suggest an Idea. The Nokia service center said its a software defect in my N96 and they could not "Mend" it. The admin were exclaimed and told this might be cos of the SIM!!.
Diagnose it guys, i need an answer!

Where are the contacts stored ? On SIM or in Phone Memory....In Contacts-->Options-->Settings-->Contacts to display and Default Saving Memory, you can select Phone Memory..  Store all in Phone Memory and try. As far as the virus goes there are no known viruses for Symbian..

  • I'm having contacts problems. I just updated my iPhone 4S iOS to 6.0.1. And after that, I started having Contacts problems. My contact list is disappearing automatically, and I have to Import SIM everytime, to bring the contacts back.

    It all started after updating my software to iOS 6.0.1. Contact problems, disappearing automatically, and I have to IMPORT SIM everytime when it happens, to bring my contacts back. And this is happening more when I'm using Whatsapp application. Every two hours using Whatsapp, my contact list is dissapearing, I'm seeing only numbers. I thought it was an Whatsapp problem, but after that, when I go into my Phone's contact list, I can see nothing ! Empty ! So I guess it's a software problem or something. Please help. Thank you.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Contact problems

    Hello,
    I have a BlackBerry 9300 and i have contact problems with my phone.
    I tried to sync my contacts with Funambol but, when the sync is done, I can't read or delete my contacts. My BB's OS version is 5.0.
    So, I upgraded my BB to 6.0, then I didn't have this problem anymore.
    Can somebody explain me why I have this problem. I' m a presales Engineer at a Frensh ISP, and we want to provide our customers a sync solution with Funambol, but all our BBs are on 5.0.
    Best Regards,
    Smail

    Yes! It keeps changing the contact pics! Hate that. I have one set and the phone decides to switch to a Facebook pic. Linking SHOULD be clever, but the way BlackBerry does it, it's annoying.

  • 5800 Wifi Problems

    I know this has been mentioned a few times - but reading them does not help me:
    I have a wifi network set up at home on a Netgear Router.  I have a few things connected to it via wifi and not had any problems.
    My network is set up with a hidden SSID, mac address filtering and defined IP addresses for all the mac addresses so when each device is attached it always gets the same IP address.
    I have entered the mac address of my 5800 no problems there:  However,  when I try and connect the 5800 to the internet through my wifi I get nothing.
    I have tried using the wireless wizard which says the connection is made, my password is correct - but I just cannot connect to the internet through my wifi?
    Any suggestions?  My phone has the latest firmware - just cannot get a wifi connection at home

    If the MAC Address is showing in the list of connected devices, then I suspect that it is not a problem with the MAC filtering.
    With regards to DHCP, this is the system that allocates an IP address (and other information) to devices connecting to your network. Check on your wireless router settings, there should be something that says DHCP is enabled or not. If DHCP is not enabled, then your device will not be able to acess anything on the network without manually entering the IP information.
    If DHCP is not enabled, try to enable it and see what happens then.

  • Contact problems with 920

    I just got a review 920 from Nokia, and i have a contacts problem.
    I was under the impression that contacts were automatically stored in the linked Hotmail account, and this seems to be the case because all my Lumia 800 contacts are listed when i go to my account in the web browser. But, when i put that account into my 920, none of the contacts appeared. So i then added my Google account, which brought most of them down, then Facebook, then linked them together and hid my Facebook friends from showing. All working fine - annoying that they weren't pulled immediately from Hotmail, but they're there now.
    However, i rebooted the phone, and when i opened People, they were all unlinked and Facebook contacts were showing again. OBviously i don't want to be fixing this on every reboot, so is there something i'm not doing correctly? I never had this problem on my Lumia 800.

    Check "People, settings, filter my contact list" and make sure the box "Show contacts" for Hotmail is ticked.
    Still don't understand it when you say that "most" of your Google contacts appeared, unless you didn't give it a while to update.
    No sorry, it brought all my Google contacts, but those represent most of my overall contacts - the rest are in Hotmail.
    In people > settings > filter, Hotmail is ticked, Facebook is not. But my Facebook contacts are all displaying, and everything is unlinked after i rebooted. And my Hotmail contacts just won't download, even though it should automatically. So this is a major pain.

  • Nokia 5800 contacts search problem after phone swi...

    Recently bought a new 5800. Used Phone Switch to retrieve contacts from older Nokia, seemed to work ok.
    The problem is that ALL NEW contacts added to 5800 memory appear BELOW the contacts list (not sorted) AND cannot be found via contact search. This is very annoying. How can this be fixed?
    Thanks.

    It sometimes does this.
    Unlock the phone, go into the messaging and come back out again.
    The "new message" notification should stop now.

  • Nokia express music 5800 contact number problem

    I can't get my phone numbers from my phone. when i try to open the phonebook it says no contact is there. though there is contacts saved in phonebook. Even if any person call me it displays there name in Dialed,missed,recieved number list. IIf i try to open the phonebook from OVI suite 3.6.36 it does not show any contact and pop up a error message with code 80700506. If i do backup it shows 0 contact got backed up after completetion, though other data get backed up properly.
    Please help me to fix this. It is so  urgent, i can n not even get some important contact numbers i need.

    @kennyabs From your question what i can understand is you dont want to use nokia messaging but want to use the inbuilt email client to check your gmail messages, what i am going to suggest you is not a foolproof method but it worked for me if u have installed NM uninstall it, open inbuilt client it tries to prepare installation hit 'cancel' immediately now you should get a screen to enter a email address and next screen to enter password, after it retrieves the settings automatically.

  • Nokia 5800 Expressmusic - problem

    I have recently had my Nokia 5800 replaced by my contract provider, Orange. this slightly newer , or updated version of my original handset had a few differences, which I have managed to overcome. I find, however, that when  I have an incoming call from someone on my contacts list, their name does not come up, only their number, and I do not know who is calling me. When I make a call, using my contacts list, I have no problem.
    Can anyone help, please?

  • Bug Report: 5800 Contacts Ringtone bug

    Hello, 
    I own a 5800 ExpressMusic and today I've upgraded my firmware version to latest. The problem I will explain still is not resolved. 
    The problem is re-producable and is very annoying. Follow these steps:
    1- Change the ringing tone to some mp3
    2- Edit a contact to have a name like ; )
    3- Let that contact call you
    The phone rings with the default tone (not the mp3 it was set to). The only way I found to correct it is to revert to more humanly names in contact list. This will be more annoying for people who save their friends with IM nicknames that contain lots of special characters.
    PS: Is there any way I can bug report this to technical team right away?

  • 5800 homescreen problem and ringtone list problem.

    i am facing two problems:
    1.Usually when the music player is running you can see the song name and duration on the homescreen. This has disappeared for me. Calendar entries dont show as well. I use handy shell whose task manager i used to kill the homescreen accidentally. I tried restarting the phone and restoring the factory settings. Kindly help.
    2.In my gallery and in my ringtone list there is this one track which appears 96 times! i deleted the track but the entry wont go away. how the hell do i get rid of it??!!
    thank you.

     use option #3, its not usually what it is meant for but if you cant remove a file then that might be a way to go. also did you try to remove it from your memory card via card reader in your computer and see if this helps any ? the option #3 will erase everything off your phone so make sure that you do have a back up. also i think that you store your stuff on the memory card so try this first and see if it works for you. 
    1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
    Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for all operations listed here is 12345
    2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone
    3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    hard reset - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. )
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

  • Nokia 5800 screen problems when unlocking

    When I unlock my phone, I get horizontal and/or vertical lines - I can't use the phone during this time, because the display is so badly affected!
    After about 5-10 seconds, the home screen will show perfectly normal.  When I either lock the phone, or lock it manually, then unlock it a few minutes later the lines come back again!
    Is this a hardware or software fault? If it is a software fault, how can I resolve this annoying problem?
    5800 v20.0.012 -- 6500s v9.40 -- 6233 v5.43 -- 5140 v3.13

    I have exactly the same fault on my 5800 to the point where the phone is completely unusable.
    Used the "Contact Us" facility 5 days ago - still waiting for a reply/acknowledgment.
    I bought the phone in mid February so it was quite an early release model, V11 frimware, but the screen fault was there early on but only very occassionally. Had the phone updated to V20 but the problem was still there. However it got progressively worse until the phone became unusable. The screen can only be restored by powering off and on again but once the screen has gone into saver mode it cannot be restored via the unlock button, or any other means other than a power down.
    Sent the phone to the Nokia "Anovo" repair centre only to have it returned 10days later with exactly the same fault as I sent it in with. The return advice note stated that details of the repair would be found on the enclosed letter - there was no enclosed letter. The return form states that all phones sent in would be automatically updated to the latest firmware - mine wasn't, even though Nokia notified me 2 weeks previously to inform me that there was an update for my phone.
    Rang Nokia Care last week, (Thursday) to be told that someone would contact me by phone, (borrowed phone obviously, as I had stated my 5800 was unusable). Friday and I had not been contacted. Rang again Friday morning 10.30am only to be told someone would contact me. Left a contact phone number again. Friday afternoon - still no contact so rang again. This time I was informed that someone should have told me that I wouldn't be contacted until Monday as thet were all "Very Busy" - I wonder why. Today, Monday afternoon stil no one has been in contact so I suppose I am going to have to go through the whole routine again.
    I am very close to the point where I am going to give up and demand a refund for an item that is clearly "Not of Merchantable Quality" or "Fit for Purpose" which would be a shame as when it worked I was really pleased with it. I bought the phone outright so I have no contract redress so am completely in the hands of Nokia. I know that Nokia is a very large company and I am but a single customer but from all the forums I have lookes at since this saga started I am driven to believe that the 5800 is causing Nokia some serious problems.
    If I do finally get some acknowledge from Nokia I will inform this forum.

  • Nokia 5800 sync problem (especially music causes m...

    Hello
    All seemed well until a weak ago. I used the ovi suite for syncing my contacts, messages, photo's and music.
    Now, it all went wrong:
       photos; works (after re-install, was empty before)
       messages; works (after re-install, new messages were not read)
       contacts; not in sync
       Music; this is the major problem.
    When I installed ovi suite 2 months ago, all was well; I configured a map to sync; it worked.
    Now I added some music to that monitored map, Ovi Music then crashed every heartbeat. Ovi suite said "ovi unable to copy tracks". But in the ovi suite I still play the songs.
    I finally removed all nokia products from my pc (vista 32bit).
    Then re-installed ovi suite, which I downloaded from the ovi website; and reinstalled ovi music.
    Ovi music; does not read my phone none of the connection modes.
    Ovi suite cannot copy any music to my phone, and cannot sync contacts anymore.
    I still get the message "unable to read the tracks" or "unable to copy the tracks".
    Ovi suite can still play the songs in the list from the pc.
    If it weren't for ovi maps navigation, i'd seriously consider installing a non symbian system all together on my phone, my friends with a iphone never seem to have these problems.
    I am now sitting here with a musicexpress on which i can't put any music. This sucks balls.
    ovi suite version: 2.1.1.1
    nokia 5800phone firmware: 40.0.005
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Do you recall what might have happened when system started malfunctioning?
    - I've added some music from my music library to the map that is monitored by the ovi suite to check for new music. I don't know if that 's the cause of the problem, but that is were I first noticed it. A day before I successfully downloaded a map for my navigator; that worked fine.
    - When I added that music; ovi music started crashing every second. I removed all music; deleted all 'Mdatastore.db3' files; another thread suggested this; but it kept crashing.
    - The first time ovi music player crashed, was because I clicked on a song that I've deleted from my control map. An exclamation point appeared; and the program crashed.
    (with the new install ovi music player still shows the songs I've deleted on with the previous install)
    - I now have a fresh install of ovi music; it does not crash anymore; but it does not read my nokia 5800 either; still shows songs I've deleted couple days ago; now deleted them manually.
    Did you install something (device or PC)?
    No new apps on my device. I downloaded an extra map for my navigator though (Germany).
    Did you uninstall something (device or PC)?
    No uninstalls either.
    Did you reconfigure, change, delete, copied over, upgrade etc. Anything on the device or PC?
    After I had the problem I upgraded ovi suite; did not work. I then removed all nokia software and did a fresh install of ovi suite and ovi music. But the problems remained the same.
    Can you please provide any error messages (from sync) that might appear or any other related information related to failures? (thanks for the "Unable..." info).
    Only the 2 error messages in ovi suite I already gave; nothing more.
    Ovi music; no error messages; but it makes no difference whether my phone is connected or not; it just shows a picture of a wire with the standard message 'connecting your device. 1. .... 2. ..... '
    What version of Ovi Player (Music) you have?
    After the new installation of ovi music.
    Nokia ovi player: 2.1.10304.00
    (517 unprotected tracks)

  • 5800 XM: Problem with Home Screen

    Hi People,
    This is the problem I have and any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
    Well, the problem is on the home screen (desktop) of my phone none of the icons are working. When I select the "Shortcuts Bar" as the homescreen theme, the phone does not display any of the shortcuts on the home screen. When I touch the locations where the shortcuts would be (on the homescreen) I can see the hit area getting highlighted, but nothing happens (also none of the shortcut icons are shown either).
    Further, the "phonebook" and the "dialler" icons at the botton of the screen don't work either, when I "touch" them (atleast the two icons can be seen here, but nothing happens), plus pressing the "green" hardkey does not bring up the dialler screen as well.
    I tried everything I could think of, such as stripping out all themes and even tried a facotry reset, but none of these did any good.
    Everything else works fine on the phone (including the contacts bar on the home screen) and the phone has 40+ mb free (C drive). So, I'm pretty much clueless as to what might be wrong here.
    Greatly appreciate anyone's help on this.
    Thanks,
    Gehan

    the last option might be a way to go since you can't even acess dialer. it is not recommended for all things but in those cases it might wrok for you also read carefully
    With all these operations I recommend you TAKE OUT MEMORY CARD and DO A BACK UP OF YOUR STUFF!!!
    NOTE: In front of the hash key ( #) there is also a STAR key that people often miss and state that the code does not work.
    1.. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data) Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345.
    2.*#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    3. hard reset - hold the following buttons * (star key), 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, /GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. ) For Nokia N97 (unofficial version but works) is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen.
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

  • Problem with Flash Lite in Nokia 5800 XpressMusic-Problema con Flash Lite en Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

    I've got a problem playing videos in YouTube with my 5800. Recently I updated my version of Flash Lite to 3.1,  from that day I can't see correctly videos on YouTube, when the the indicator of the bar reaches 1/4 of the totallity of the bar, the sound and image stop, but the indicator continues playing. If i want to see completly a video I have to put the indicator in the start of the bar and wait the load again. Some idea to fix this problem?
    Sorry for my English level.
    Tengo un problema reproduciendo vídeos en YouTube con mi 5800. Hace poco actualicé la versión del Flash Lite a la 3.1 y desde entonces no puedo ver correctamente vídeos de YouTube, cuando el indicador de la barra alcanza 1/4 de la distancia total, se detienen el sonido y la imagen, pero el indicador continúa como si siguiera reproduciendo, es decir para el vídeo es como si siguiera reproduciendo pero ni el sonido ni la imagen continúan., para ver los vídeos tengo que llevar el cursor de carga al principio y esperar la carga de nuevo, es un problema realmente molesto. ¿Alguna idea para solucionarlo?

    Hi,
    I have Nokia 5800XM as well. The YouTube videos are playng fine for me. my FW is 40.0.005 with FL3.1
    Maybe you need to update your device's firmware and FL version.\
    Start Device Manager application on your 5800XM from menu or dialing *#0000#. It will check for new updates and ask you to download them. Remember that these updates are in MBs. I'd recommend update using a WiFi connection or flat-rate data plan.
