Cannot reinstall MFE after hard reset of phone

I had a spam issue on my exchange account and although all the messages got deleted on the server, i could not get them to delete off the phone. They took out all my phone memory and even after moving the messages from C: to E: this did not resolve the phone memory problem.
My phone started  behaving extremely oddly (like more odd than normal). Automatically it would flip from using E: to C: for messages and the home page mail widget no longer worked. I tried to delete one for the MFE folders on C: to try and see if that helped but nothing did.
i didnt want to hard reset so i actually uninstalled MFE using the application manager. This still did not free memory so I did the hard reset to factory settings. that freed up my memory again, but now i did not have MFE available to install.
I was surprised by the hard reset, I thought i would loose my firmware upgrade and any applciations that i had downloaded, but i didnt. My downloaded apps were still there and my firmware version was still the latest - isnt that odd?
So i tried to download MFE from the Ovi store via my phone,  it seems to download okay but when it tries to install i constantly get an installation failed.
Of course i cannot find any install logs on my phone, and I cant even find the download MFE installer to try and manually install. So frustrating how when browsing the directories on your phone you mostly see blank directories even though you know they must have files in them grrrr, and Y-Browser doenst seem to run on the N97.
Appreciate if someone can tell me how to get MfE reinstalled.

Because your N97 has MfE in the firmware, you can update with PCSuite Software updater. Have a look here for the installer, but I think the N97 is not available because of the mentioned reason.

  • Cannot restore data after hard reset

    Hi,
    I had to recently do a hard reset on my Tungsten E. I tried to restore the data from Palm Desktop as indicated on the support website. Unfortunately, the synchronisation fails because Hotsync is not able to recognize the user name. Hotsync on my device indicates that no user name is currently implemented, while Palm desktop is currently set to my old user name.
    I would appreciate any advise on this issue.
    Thanks.
    Post relates to: Tungsten E

    hi,
    kindly check the username of the handheld
    -open hotsync on the handheld and the username will be on the top right
    if there is no username displayed,
    during hotsync, the computer asks you if you want to uses existing usernamae or create a new one
    so, please select and existing username

  • N85 going slow after hard reset - help

    Hello
    I did a hard reset on the phone and now everything is going really slowly, especially messaging. Any solution please? Do I download new software and how?
    thank you.

    Make sure there is nothing installing in the background at times after hard reset the phone tries to install some applications that was stored in the card, so wait for sometime or try installing applications on the phone removing the memory card.

  • After hard reset my time capsule is not found in airport even though its light is green so cannot reset

    After hard reset the time capsule is not found in airport even though i have reconnected in proper order - says backup disc not found

    Something is wrong because a hard reset will never leave the TC with green LED.
    What version TC.. what firmware??
    What OS on the computer?

  • A DIFFERENT problem with Maps after Hard Reset

    Was advised to hard reset my phone after it started going crazy with data which I did using the advised *#7something# method.
    Nokia Maps is fortunately still there upon reset. Phew. Although when I open it it starts downloading mad amounts of data.
    All my maps are gone. it appears my mass memory got kind of messed up in the reset - it deleted a lot of the data off the mass memory, but left some of it. Example - my music files all went, but the directory structure remained. My photos remained, but Nokia doesn't know when they were taken.
    I have tried connecting my phone to my PC and opening maps in Ovi Suite ... and it says 'cannot find maps or voice guidance files in your device', and I appear to have no option to re add them.
    There is an 'open help' link below the message ... which opens a blank help page in my browser. Useful.
    Can anyone help?

    This has occurred the entire time I have owned the iPod. I only discovered iLyrics about 2 months ago. I don't believe iLyrics is to blame.
    In general, the lyrics are in English and do not have special characters. This is a good suggestion though. I'm going to pay close attention to see if I can find any weird HTML bits showing up. It seems to occur about 70% of the time. I've assumed that it is completely random, so I'm going to pay closer attention to see if some songs work 100% of the time. Interestingly, it never goes wrong 100% of the time either. It sometimes takes 4 or 5 tries, but eventually I'll be able to scroll through the entire song.
    I'm getting the impression that this is NOT a common problem....

  • Comes With Music. After Hard Reset.

    I had to hard reset my phone earlier because the music player stuffed up... i just put all my music back on my phone but now its saying "Unable to play - License invalid" anyone know how to fix it?

    Format your Memorycard and re-sync all the songs that you've downloaded. Should work great. 
     This is what I hate, If I take the Memory card out and put it back again, (Songs won't play), I update my firmware (Songs won't play), I cannot make those songs as a ringtone or an Alarm, I bought a newlaptop and had to sync those songs I'm not allowed to, i can't copy those songs in a Disc, neither sync it in my Ipod, so eventually Nokia's Ad on "Free Music for a year, and you can keep it after the end of the year" is not clear and there were probably so many people who bought the phone for that purpose, the Retailers did not know about it as well, So at the end whatever Nokia said did not fit the Purpose and gave wrong information. !!

  • N8 Cant remove Topapps even after hard reset

    Hi,
    Few hours ago I just bought a new N8. It has in it TopApps and Ovi store, I wanted to remove Topapps but it continue to deny the operation. I tried soft reset, hard reset and in the ned 4 buttons reset. I tried also few solutions offered here in nokia forum but still without any sucess. I cant remove TopApps or Ovi Store even after hard reset, the maps are also here - I thought that these apps will disappear after hard reset.
    In applications I got 3 ovi store related apps installed - ovi, Ovi notifications support package and Ovi Store. Social network app is not working too, its showing me service unavailable. Any ideas ?
    Thank you for attention

    Hi rslid,
    Nokia Store or rather Ovi Store is not deletable or uninstalabe as this is one of the applications that is necessary to enable you to download and update downloaded applications to your Nokia N8-00 Belle. If you try to delete or unistall you get the message operation denied so its better if you leave it.
    Concerning hard resetting, any time you feel like hard resetting your device use *#7370# followed by 12345 as the default security code unless you have manually changed it but always remember that it will delete all user data from both drive C and E hence a backup of your data with the phone settings unticked or not selected is strongly recomended before hard resetting and also note and remember that after hard resetting always reinstall your firmware to avoid having an unstable device.

  • Lumia 800 does not switch on after hard reset

    Hi SoldovskijBB,
    If the phone doesnt switch on after the hard reset, try to connect the device to Zune and see if it makes a difference. If not, itll be best to visit a local care centre where the phone can be checked. Have a look here to find your nearest care centre: http://europe.nokia.com/support/repair-and-recycle/repair/care-points

    Hey Frnds Ovi Store Is Working.............yupppyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Finally it installed on my c7 and n8 too......
    What should hv to do(for those whose ovi is unable to install):
    * just Format your phone via *#7370#
    * And after that no need to install any qt etc software,just check for SW update in your device.
    * And it will show an update of ovi store about 15 MB .
    * Thats it.
    why it was not showing an update before?
    ans. because i hv installed qt 4.7 and qt webkit.so SW update wasn't showing any update.
    I will request admin to move this thread to Solution section...
    thanx to every one 4 repling

  • Re-install N97mini after hard-reset

    Hey,
    I already paid the Software by credit card and downloaded it directly on the mobile phone.
    Few days ago I had troubles with my phone and I couldn't start it anymore. After hard-reseting it, it worked again.
    Unfortunately all software is gone now.
    When I start the Adobe Reader mobile it says "10 days trial" version. Do I have to pay again?
    Thanks for your answer

    Hey
    no you don't have to pay again absolutely, just download it again and insert the code received by mail
    Good luck

  • 8350i uncaught exception java.lang.NullPointerException after hard reset

    basic info:
    8350i
    v4.6.1.204 (Platform 3.0.0.73)
    Desktop Manager 4.7
    everything is good except that i've been using two batteries, one in the phone and one in a charger. when the phone's battery is almost drained i swap it with the charged one which of course causes a hard reset.
    this procedure was working well for at least a week or two until last month when i swapped batteries - after the hard reset i got
    uncaught exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
    i could make calls but all other software seemed corrupted... virtually nothing else worked... icons missing etc.
    tried all sorts of solutions but the only thing that fixed it was a full on device software erase/reload, then a data restore from previous backup. at the time i figured it was just a random thing and was glad to learn how to do a complete software reload.
    then yesterday it happened again (again, immediately at the end of the security check after hard reset). now i'm afraid to swap batteries because it would appear that every time i hard reset there is a 10% (my guess) chance of software corruption and a complete reload takes a significant amount of time.
    has anybody else noticed this? does anybody have a solution?
    can i swap batteries without a hard reset; i.e. swap while plugged into power? i haven't tried this yet for fear of causing my BB harm.
    any help is appreciated,

  • Battery after hard reset on Lumia 800

    Hi
    A few days ago i did a hard reset on my Lumia 800. Since that everything was great, the only reason why i did it, to restore the default settings. After that i updated the firmware to 12070 via Zune. Since that day, my phone doesn't really know how much  percentages are left from the battery. Sometimes It's showing a consant value for a long time, then suddenly begins to drain, and after a few it stops. It often happens, that it shows a value, and after an hour it shows a higher value (in percentage) than beforehand. 
    Today I let It to discharge to 0%, and then i pluged it to the charger. When the phone turned on, it showed me 5%.
    It's lifetime havent changed so spectacularly, but i guess its a bit shorter with the same usage.
    Is this behaviour normal after hard reset? 
    Thanks 

    After update my lumia 800 is failing to recongnise earphone. It keeps playing music on speaker. If I restart my phone then for few mins it is playing music in earphone. But after few mins once again music playback is starting through speaker.
    what should be the problem? will hard reset solve this problem? If yes, how to hard reset nokia lumia 800.
    Thanks in adv,

  • Video section in carousel menu after hard reset...

    Hi, I've a problem with my N85.

Last seen is empty, my videos is empty, feed videos is empty but i have a lot of videos an feeds. This is a bug or a problem in my phone? An help is very appreciated.

     Hi useless701,
    Thanks for posting and welcome to the forum.
    Use the reset methods available to you and not the ones which are reserved for use by a Nokia Care Point if they need to force reset a device which is no longer responsive before rewriting the system firmware.
    The two user applicable reset options are;
    Dial *#7780# followed by the security code when asked (default is 12345)
    This will reset device settings to defaults. It will not change or remove any user data or files.
    Dial *#7370# followed by the security code when asked (default is 12345)
    This will perform the same actions but also return the device to it's factory state removing all user data and files.
    Any other codes or keycombinations are _not_ supposed to be used by the device user and should in general be followed by a full flash of the device by a Nokia Care Point.
