5800 music problem

so i have a nokia 5800 and i am very happy with it...well except for the music player.
i was hoping that it would be fixed with the new firmware upgrade but sadly, it has not.
so when i'm jamming my tunes at random moments a song will start playing and then stop, now sometimes when it does this it will just skip to the next song on the list and when i try and play that song again it will come up with an error saying something about operation cant be performed(sometimes it says file is corrupt) or something and then the whole library will vanish, and when i'm not so lucky it will just stop playing and all my music is gone from the list but when i use file mngr, all my music is still fine and i can play the music fine from there, only one track at a time.
now i know what you're thinking, refresh library right...yeah that does do the trick sometimes. often right after i do it, half my songs don't show up or when it works the way it should it takes ages to load all my music(of about 1123 songs on the 8GB that comes with it) and by the time its finished i am at home or at work and have gone on without music(well i have a e63 and the music player is just not what the 5800 is...not even close so i don't like using it for music).
so...is there a way to fix this little problem.
thanks in advance for your time and help.

i've been facing the same problem.. Nd ths s wat i do to rectify it.. No hard soft resettin needed in the v51 nokia 5800.. It's a very stable firmware..
For other mobiles too, if its a card greater than 4GB,
Make a backup of memory card on computer.. Sometimes this fails..
Connect ur mobile in mass storage mode whn connectin to pc..
Ur card is shown in 'my computer'
Right click, goto properties and u'll find a checkd disc function.. Select it
After checkdisc is done, u can probably copy files now
WARNING, some files maybe half in size, esp those whch played half..
After u r done with backup, format ur memory card
Disconnect from computer.
Open music player on mobile
Perhaps it'l say 'repairin corrupted library' etc.. Let it do it..
If u dnt hv any file on memory, 0 files added wil be shown
If none of these occur, manually choose refresh library from options.
After this is done, reconnect ur mobile to computer
Recopy ur backed up files..
Problem solved..
Advice: if u hv an 8GB card or more, they are a bit different frm 2GB nd 4GB.. Try fillin the 8GB card only till 4GB and see how it works fr a month.. Then slowly increase the nmbr of files.. But if again the error comes, note how much is the used space. Then either get a new 8GB card, or a 4GB card or try to keep nmbr of files in ur old 8GB card below the used space when the error came..
I hope this helps.

Creative Zen loading music problem

"Creative Zen loading music problem?I just started using a creative zen (DVP-FL000, 6Gb) player and i'm having?a few issues copying music onto it.
I have loaded the latest firmware (.2.03e) onto it and formatted it so was clean when i started loading my music on.
I'm using winamp on winxp to copy my music to the player, but occasionally i get tracks that wont copy to the player. Winamp just shows 'unspecified error'. If a file fails to copy it will never copy, no matter how many times i try. Somtimes its a random track, sometimes an entire album.
So i also tried copying the tracks that wont copy using windows explorer, it appears to copy but the file never appears on the device. The same is also true when i try it on my Windows7 laptop with explorer, it will appear to be copying but then part way through it will report that the device has stopped responding.
It only seems to happen with windows media files, all my mp3s copy fine. The files that dont copy probably represent about 0% of my music but play fine on all my other players.
sorry for the long post, just really scratching my head with this one!
anyone have any ideas?

solved
did a 'clean up' in the recovery menu, no problems transferring tracks since

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.

Nokia 5800 music uploading problem

Hey there, I have had alot of trouble transfering music to my phone. It transfers and plays fine, but when i transfer the songs/albums, most of them aren't what I named them on my pc and a few of my songs get sorted in with random albums
I posted on here a few days back and I was given a solution which worked perfectly (Transfering by inserting the phone memorycard into my pc, and refreshing library when transfer is complete.) the albums were exactly as i named them and so were the songs. Once i tried to upload more, it all went wrong.
Can anyone help me please
Thanks,
Paul

I have the same issue with track playback.
Although I hear the popping only occasionally, it does not matter what format the file is in, it happens from time to time randomly and although disappointing, it does not detract too much from my enjoyment of the music.
A more serious and fatal error that is now occurring is the freezing of playback once a file completes and tries to advance to advance to the next track.
This became a problem only recently as of July 2010. I have owned the phone since October of 2009 and have never had any issues with the handset. And indeed, have recommended and gushed over the features and ease of use of the 5800. It should be noted that the player freezes only when I play “All Songs” either randomly or from a playlist. Or, when playing even by Album or Artist, when I select next track or previous track, the player will freeze and not shut down. I am left to turn the phone off and on again to reset the player.
The phone is fully updated with the latest firmware released to the Americas market. And I use the latest Ovi Suite program for phone management. I have tried the suggested fixes of reset, restore, re-update, and even have reformatted the memory card. All of this, to no avail.
I have noticed that the Americas market is behind an update or two as to firmware and I cannot access the latest and greatest thru any Nokia website. So if I must I can be patient and wait my turn. But, if someone has an actual hard fix for this specific problem, I would be most grateful. Please, no guesses or “it may be” suggestions as I have gone thru them all already.
I know I’m not the only one with this problem as the boards threads are becoming dense enough to knit a sweater.

Nokia 5800 Sound problems in music player

Having a weird problem with the music player. When you choose a song to play, there is no sound unless you press either volume button, then the sound works normally. I have tried this in all different profiles, with and without headphones and nothing seems to work. Any ideas how I can get the sound back in the music player?

I don't know the exact solution to the problem but you may try to do a reset option. Sometimes with my N82 the sound just stops but the music is going. So i pause and play it again.
Try this reset but-
Before perfoming this please take a backup of your data.
Factory defaults-
Type *#7780# on your standby screen.
This will reset all your setting to default factory settings. User data wont be affected.
Soft reset-
Type *#7370#
This will reset the phone as well delete user data. Use when want to format the phone.
If none of these worked then you might want to do a hard reset.
For this you have to-
1. Switch off the phone.
2. Hold down the following three buttons: Green (the call answer button), * button, and '3' button.( Just in case of N78 it will be the multimedia key the small silver key on right side & 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 is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE. )
3. While holding these buttons, hold the power button to switch on the phone.
4. Release the buttons when the phone shows the nokia hands logo or shows other signs of life like the language selection screen.
Please thank me by giving 'KUDOS' star. It will help me to serve you better.
Currently using N82 and 5230. Next would be N?

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)

Problem with NOKIA 5800 Music Express

Hi all,
My NOKIA 5800 hasnt been working properly for some time. I can not make a call using my phone book (only if i dial the number i can call) though incoming call can be received. Apart from that, when i try to navigate tomy memory card, i cant anything rather than some less important files though i can find those floders when using via pc! Lots of other problems.
From this discussion (/t5/Phone-Applications/Antivirus-for-5800/m-p/426338) i find out that its not necessary to use antivirus if properly used. But the thing is, i let my mom and sister use this phone for like 6 months, there was internet connection. So, i am not sure whether they did something wrong which led to these problems. Before that everything was fine.
Help me guys! I am freaking out!
Thanks all!
CHeers!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

i agree with farby.. Do a soft/hard reset.. *#7370# code is 12345..
Note: virus cant infect ur device memory.. But it can infect ur memory card nd corrupt it.. So scan ur memory card wd antivirus on computer... If no virus is found and ur card is unreadable, format ur memory card.. Before formattin backup data as much possible..
Hope this helps.

Nokia 5800 ans Nokia Music Problems

Hi, i recently got the nokia 5800 but the thing is it doesnt work with Nokia Music. I had trouble the first time so i jus unplugged it then put it back in then i coudl see it on the nokia music to drag songs into but now the program doesnt see it. I have it in PC Suite mode, the computer see's it, Ovi suite see's it, Noke pc suite see's it but nokia music just doesn't, What is going on here? Thanks

@emmrecs - transferring files could be almost twice as fast in mass storage when compared to pc suite mode. Also mass storage can work on any computer, macs for example.

5800 Music- how bad is the freezing problem

I am looking at buying the 5800. However after looking at hunderds of reviews and comments it seems to me that users either love or hate their musicexpress with not much inbetween. Knowing that users will often only vent their anger when things go wrong can anyone tell me how bad the freezing problem is that seems to raise its head often with this phone. Are there many people who have this phone not have this problem or is the problem only occur when thier is some conflict with some app.
One other questions is it possible to use the phone to keep reasonabvle amount of notes- I am about to head overseas and want to use the phone also to replace a notebook and diary and also to use its many other functions
with thanks

I do not have this problem, then again my 5800 has not been working in anyway except perfect ever since I bought it, except for the crashing browser on v30.
Yes you can keep a lot of notes on the phone, Although you may want to find a "note app" like express note to save the notes onto memory card if you plan to use it all too often.

Problems with 5800 music Xpress

Hi
I have had my Nokia 500 music Xpress for approx 8 mths now and i love it
but about a month ago it turned itself off and i thought it was just a one off,
it happened a few times, I would remove battery and sim and put them back in and turn phone back on. I will a get few days when i have no problems and then it will do it again sometimes 5 or 6 times a day.
Yesterday It happened and i really thought it was not going to come back on.
Eventually got it back on but i havent a clue why it should keep doing this and don't have a clue what to do to rissolve it... is it the software/battery or the phone?
plz help.
thanx

5800 music connectivity problems

Hello, I've just bought a 5800 xpressmusic, and I'm totally unsatisfied of the smartphone features. the browsing options are poor and annoying. I have not been able to set wifi as the default access point. The bloody creature always tries to connect through the wireless network, letting me spend money instead of using my free (paid for) wifi connection. The browser always crashes and often refuses to connect through my wifi access point. I'm having a hell of problems and I'm thinking to trash this dumbphone. Anybody like to speak against or for this radical solution?

The default browser is not the best. You could try either Skyfire or Opera Mini, both of which are available for free from Ovi Store. Both browsers also have their own access point controls so they may also solve your access point issue at the same time.
Failing that, I know a very convenient thrash can.

Nokia Music with 5800 Connection Problems

Hi All,
Trying to update music from my PC to my 5800XM with Nokia Music 1.2
When I connect using the USB cable and I select any of the 4 connction options, it tells me that I have selected the wrong connection type, but not which type to select.
I have to transfer the music manually either by removing the MicroSD and inserting into my laptop or via USB connection to my PC. This, of course, doesn't transfer the album covers, which is part of the reason for using Nokia Music.
Also transferring MP4 movies doesn't work using Windows/not via OVI.
Regards,
Mark

dropping the phone would result in hardware damage and hardware damage would be obvious. cracked screen, phone constantly rebooting, etc etc.
What i have problem with is this, let's suppose dropping the phone NEVER caused the underlying issue, nokia care can turn around and say, you dropped it, it's your fault, but what if it was not? how exactly does nokia prove otherwise, part of the testing of the phones is to test stuff like being dropped, why else do they have machines which simulate this? the fact is phones are supposed to take a little punishemnet, just because the phone shows signs of it being dropped should not auto matically qualifiy it to being void, plenty of other eletronics out there, torches, mp3, phones can take a beating much more than she did and anyone else and warrenty not be void, this is just a cheap excuse to make more money and not repair the phone.

5800 music express problem with Bluetooth

Hi,
I have recently had problems with my 5800 contacted nokia they told me to take it to a care point which I done. They were unable to fix it so they had to send it off to nokia themselves. After approximately 2 weeks nokia contacted me and told me that your device is ready for pick up from the care centre (which is 30miles away).
I went to pick the device up and brought it home the exact same problems were still there contacted the care centre they told me to take it back down to them which was totally unacceptable for me. Contacted Nokia they said for me to send it back to them direct but I feel that I don't want too be without my phone for another 2 week when they have already had the chance to rectify the problem. Surely if the device was unable to be fixed then a replacement handset should have been offered. Am I being unreasonable???

Ok, so it does seem the problems are related to a malfunction. Have you tried returning your phone to the shop you bought it from, and asking them to replace it?
Failing that, your only other option would seem to be to keep pestering Nokia Care for a replacement...
P.S I don't think you are being unreasonable wanting a replacement if your phone is faulty & can't be fixed under waranty!

5800 music refresh problems.

I've recently upgraded to a 16Gb memory card. When I first changed the cards over I copied across ALL the memory cards' files and things were working fine, apart from a couple of apps that didn't seem to make the journey (?).
However, just recently the music player has now decided to stop refreshing the music. When I transfer music and then try to refresh the library the phone just hangs and never finishes refreshing, eventually necessitating a reboot of the phone to get it to stop the refresh.
I'm all up to date with the latest software version through Ovi.
Any Ideas?

Sometimes the touch screen will not respond when an incoming call is ringing and I have to answer by presing the green button. ----------
I've notice that the screen will also not respond if ur answering and sometimes ending the call i think its due to the screen protection lock when u place the phone over ur ears it should lock up so that it wont interfere with the touch screen but i think its the common bug for this phone.... what I do is i try locking the phone by pressing the screen lock slider on the side and unlock it again and it actually resets the darn screen protect thing and then the screen will respond when u answer or close a call... (I guess thats where the head phone comes handy when ur calling someone instead of putting it over ur ear..)
