Archlinux and nokia e50

I have a phone with symbian (e50) and I need backup data from it to pc and install new programs. Is here anybody who knows how to connect e50 with archlinux?

Hi there! I dont know what u exactly asking, but if u talking bout connection with the OS u could use bluetooth (i belive that e50 does have it), or maybe a USB cable... just some thoughts. maybe u need some another connection... tell more if u'r interested.

Nokia E50, issues with connecting and managing mes...

Hi
I'm using Nokia E50 and Nokia PC Suite for a few years now on. Recently I wanted to do my usual maintenance task: copy all messages to PC and delete them from the phone. Issues start here.
At first I had problems with connecting but finally I manage to do it. After dozens of tries PC Suite finally updated contact list. Then I moved to messages tab. It took a while to download all messages (aprox. 700 in inbox, 600 in sent - I had many more few times before when everything was working ok). I can copy them to PC, but I can't delete them. After selecting message(s), trash icon is grayed out (menu item too). I can read message but can't delete it. Why?
I've downloaded latest version of Ovi to see if that would help. Ovi managed to download contact list (after a loong waiting) but failed to download any message. Messages says that it's trying but after one hour nothing happend.
I'm trying this on 2 different machines (Windows 7 and Windows XP), with cable and blue tooth. Efects are always the same. Phone is connected because I can copy files, but when I'm trying to download messages or do backup, software says phone is not connected or tries to copy data with no luck.
Any hint will be appreciated.
Thanks

After deleting aprox. 150 messages from Inbox and from Sent, both programs were able to download complete list of messages and PC Suite finally reenabled trash icon.
Seems like too much messages causes those program to fail? And why in the past they were working properly with bigger amount of messages?
Well.. one can say "problem solved" but will reappear again in the future with lots of messages. I need to remember to grab them from the phone more frequent.

SOLUTION to NOkia E50 SPeakerphone/Loudpeaker Free...

My Nokia E50 everyday would sometime or other on taking a call, automatically get on the LOUDSPEAKER mode and get frozen or hang. Nothing would let me switch it back. I would have to remove the battery only.
Well the speaker phone bug I seemed to fix a while back. I hope it works for you too !
I was pulling my hair out trying different things to stop it from hanging on the loudspeaker mode automatically on taking a call !
I tried everything from changing the memory card, using no memory card, updating the firmware ! and also CHANGING the phone to another E50. But the problem was always there... Until...
I just did...
I changed the RINGTONE of LINE 1 from the default Ring tone to another ring tone AND also I changed the The ring tone on line 2 to a different one !in other words both LINE 1 and LINE 2 now have Different ring tones and none of them have the Default tone !
Since then my phone behaves properly and no freezing for over a year now 1
So I guess you guys can try it and circulate this info with others too
Cheers - CYRUS !

When using a 4G/LTE enabled phone in countries where 4G/LTE networks are not yet deployed or still under construction, there may be issues with calls, SMS, or data connection. In worst cases the phone SIM may be rejected by the network.
In line with this, when a Nokia Lumia 920 is purchased in a country where 4G/LTE network is not yet enabled by the operator, the devices will be shipped pre-configured to 3G network connectivity to avoid these problems.
If 4G/LTE networks become available later, it is possible to enable the capability with an over-the-air software update. However, I am sorry to say that there is no information on when this particular over the air software update will become available for a specific device.

Help on Nokia E50 please!

Hi,
I have Nokia E50 but i need to learn how to use it with bigger typing-writing format.
My fathers eyes cannot see well so i need to set his Nokia E50 for bigger characters.
Help me pls.
Thank you.

I do not know about the E50 but being a S60 3rd edition like my E60 should be equal. If my assumption is correct there is no way to increase font size. I was posting this issue long ago but no feedback for resolution from Nokia developers. The only way to partially resolve this is to use applications that allow you to select font. I'm using Best Full Screen caller for ID's and Papyrus as calendar. For messages and mail no application with font size selection available so far. If somebody has got more for messages and mails please post.

Flash Lite 2.1 install on Nokia E50

Just did a Flash Lite 2.1 install on Nokia E50 after I
downloaded flashlite2_1_symbian_s60V3 and it installed apparently
fine with Nokia installer. However any .swf with test content
published to Device Central gets a corrupted file message after I
try run the .swf on the E50. The docs say the E50 should be
supported by this Flashlite version above.
Any ideas?
thanks
Colm

Alessandro,
Yes, I see now another Flash Lite 2.1 player installed not
under media but under menu. Starting it allows me to browse my
Flash Lite 2.1 files and they display fine.
Next up, I must try to get Flash Lite 3, but developer
applications for Flash Lite 3
have closed afaik. Does anybody know where/when/if/how a
Symbian edition Flash Lite 3 player can be got to test on a Flash
Lite 2.1 player phone?
thanks again!

Different IMEI in Nokia E50?

I hope someone can help me.
I am Spanish, living in Shanghai, China, and my boss from Spain recently gave me a Nokia E50 that he got from Orange with points. Since I couldn't use it here with a different operator, I took it to a Nokia booth at Babaiban (a very good commercial centre) to unlock it. After some days they returned it to me saying that this cellphone was too complicated. Then I investigated on the web and learnt that this is true, it is a complicated phone that can only be unlocked via IMEI, but when I went to check the phone IMEI, it was a number ending with ? (question mark) that didn't look anything like the imei in the sticker under the battery. This is bad, because now I cannot even upload applications via the PC suite...
I guess that the people at the booth touched something (well that's obvious, I gave them a phone in Spanish and they returned one in Chinese) but now I read somewhere that the IMEI cannot be changed...
Anyway, my cry for help goes beyond this. I want to take the phone to a genuine Nokia Care Centre, but the Nokia website for China is in Chinese, with no option in English (nokia people, you should do something about this, there are maaaany expats here). So can anybody help me:
a. Find a Nokia Care Centre in Shanghai
b. Change my E50's IMEI to its original
Thank you!
Julio

Nokia E50 Speaker Phone Audible Beep

On the Nokia E50 there are a couple of things that I was wondering if anyone has learned how to tackle. First, when switching to Speaker Phone, is there any way to keep it from making the audible beep when you press the Speakerphone button?
This is problematic for me for two reasons: First, when you dial voice mail, you have to wait until the mobile carrier's voice mail system answers to switch to Speakerphone...but when you do, that audible beep that the E50 makes when activating the speakerphone causes my phone provider's voice mail system, Cingular, to go back to the "main menu" instead of just going into the first recorded voice mail message as it should. In other words, the sound that the E50 makes is being heard on the other end by the mobile carrier's system and is responding to it by sending me back to the main menu.
Second, people can hear the audible beep when you switch to Speakerphone. So, they know when I put them on speakerphone, which always causes an interruption in the conversation. I would love to be able to make that noise go away. IS THERE A WAY TO DO THIS?
The other thing that bothers me is that when I get one voice mail, the phone displays, "New Message." When I get a second voice mail, the phone displays "3 messages." Three messages, it displays "6 messages." When it gets to nine actual messages on Cingular's voice mail system, my phone displays "72 messages." Any ideas on what is going on or how to resolve that problem?
Otherwise I love the phone. Best phone I have ever owned!
Thanks.

If they replaced the mic and now it isn´t working properly, you should go back there and make them fix it. At least that´s what I would do...
By clicking the "Kudos!" or the "Solution?" button on the right you can say "Thank You" and you´ll show the author and others that the post is useful.

Nokia E50 Hangs On Call Receive !

My friend and I bought 2 nokia E50 Handsets and face the same problem.
Atleast once in 3 days when I receive a call with the Green button, the loudpspeaker gets actiavted on its on and then the handset hangs. No pressing of any buton will help and I am compelled to remove the battery and restart the cell phone.
So I decided to use the Nokia Software (firmware) updater so I could re-install the software.
But the nokia updater only says that there is no later version thatthe current one. Sure there must be some way of installing the software again even though we still have the latest version. How is that done ? is ther an code we can use to reformat the handset and then use the nokia updater to install it ? Please reply.
Thanks Cyrus !

Ridiculous. I went from a trusty 6230 to this piece of junk, all in the name of Blackberry.
This phone has to be the slowest, lumpiest, worst executed piece of technology I've ever owned. The flickering as the OS refreshes the screen as you navigate is unbelievable. Blackberry only half works. And this, loudspeaker-broadcast-the-conversation thing is the icing on the cake. I'm only happy to see I'm not alone.
I hope someone at Nokia is monitoring this, becuase this is bad, real bad. Did they actually test the phone at all before shipping it?
Bethri, i know the "loudspeaker-broadcast-the-conversation" as you call it is **bleep**py. But it's really not fair to compare Symbian to Nokia series 30 software. It's comparing a smartphone to a regular phone. Sure is much slower and ehhhhhhh well....... you're right! Sorry Nokia. You guys just did a poor job on this one. Sure it can happen, but what's taking soooooooooo long to bring out a fix!Message Edited by ajak on 16-Nov-2006

SyncMate vs. FoneLink for syncing Nokia E50 notes with Mac Mail

Hello,
After some searching, it appears that there are two programs that would sync my Nokia E50 notes with Mac Mail on my MacBook Pro - SyncMate and FoneLink. Both are priced at about $50 - a bit spendy. Has anybody use / compared the two? Are there other options?
Thanks,

Nokia E50 video playback

I have converted video files from flv to 3gp and saved it on my E50 using PC Suite. When I play the clip with Real Player version S60.30.20.01 A, I can hear the sound but no clip. Could anyone please advise on what could be the solution to this? Some other 3gp videos are working alright. Thank you very much in advance.

Nokia E50 video resolution: 240 x 320
I ever met the same question with you, and my bro fixed it up with something called video file converter. It is simple, This video file converter is already optimized for output setting for mobile phone, so just encode ur FLV files to 3GP format again and there will be normal.

Nokia E50 doesnt boot...

Hi, I've installed a signed theme I download from internet. After instalation, I applied that theme, and my E50 crash, I could'nt do anything, so I've removed the batterie, and reboot my phone... But after charging and displayed "NOKIA", the screen stay white, and it doesnt happens anything...
Is there a way to turn the phone to its orignal configuration without phone's running ?
thanks
(I think that theme was made for a Symbian 9.2, or my E50 runs under 9.1 ... But no messages tell me that it's not compatible during the instalation)
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It sound like it was a badly made or corrupt theme.
Have you tried removing the battery for 5 minutes then trying?
If so all you can do if it won't turn on is the hard reset. Unfortunately this reset will wipe everything from the phones memory but it is your only option.
Hard reset:
1. Switch off the phone.
2. Hold down the following three buttons: Green (the call answer button), * button, and '3' button.
3. While holding these buttons, hold the power button for a second to switch on the phone.
4. Release when the phone shows the nokia hands logo or shows other signs of life like the language selection screen.
It may take a few attempts and very flexible fingers!

Nokia E50 - HS-2R compatibility

Yes, the Nokia HS-2R FM Radio Headset works with NOKIA E50 very well. I bought one for my E50 phone and I am satisfied.

Hi there,
I've got an E50 and CK-7W as well. I'll admit I'm rather disappointed that the functionality of the E50 with the CK-7W is inferior to that of my old 6230i with the CK-7W. Given that voice dialing worked with the 6230i when in the cradle, I can see no physical reason why it should not work with the E50 in a cradle - voice dialing works fine when using the kit in the bluetooth profile with the phone not in the cradle.
This is presumably a software issue and not a hardware one. I upgraded the firmware to V 06.41.3.0 which is the current release but it failed to fix this "problem".
With a bit of luck this is something Nokia have on their to do list!

Nokia E50 new FW. Problem with Birthday notificati...

I have a Nokia E50 with last firmware (7.36.0.0). There is the birthday notification in calendar ??????????
In case with Nokia 7210 supernova, they little worked (before reboot). On Nokia E50 - NOT WORKING!

You have to remember another important thing - this is not just the 5800, the business orientated E90 has the same problem in recent firmware which wasn't there in the original firmware. I don't really think your argument about it not being a business centric phone applies either, Nokia have already given the 5800 the standard S60 client so clearly they've decided that despite it being music-centric, it should still have a mail client. And this is a bug, not a feature - it's quite simply stupid to only allow the phone to download every mail, it would make far more sense to be able to use the limit system they have in place, only download new mail or to allow the auto-update portion (which has the limit) to connect to the mailbox automatically. The current system is actually more complex than either of those as it actually goes and downloads everything, unfortunately it's an undesirable 'feature' as the phone simply cannot do it as it will keep downloading until it actually kills itself.

Nokia E50 Software Update

Hi,
I have Nokia E50, Can any one help me to update my phone software. Also in our country some mobile operators are offering Cell Info Display, i have switch on that display feature but it is not constant it is appearing and disappearing. is this due to phone software issue?
Thanks
Sajid

If there is a software update for your phone, go to the support site for your phone, and download the Nokia Software Update tool. Connect your phone to the computer via a cable and open the software update tool. Be ABSOLUTELY SURE nothing interrupts this process as it could damage your phone. If there is a software update available for your phone, it'll give you the option to download and upgrade your phone. Be sure to backup your phone before you start, as you'll lose your data.
The Cell Info service is network dependent. Its possible there are issues with your provider that are causing the breaks in service.
