Ck-7w And N81 8GB

Is the N81 not compatable with the Ck-7w car kit?

Hi! Just wanted to share the solution to my previously described problem.
It turned out that the CK-7W carkit wouldn't work properly as a result of an extension CAT-5 cable. During the installation ut turned out that the cable that runs from the phoneholder (MBC-15S) to the CK-7W was too short, so I decided to use an extension cable. The extension cable was an ordinary CAT-5 cable with 8P8C plugs in both ends, approximatly 50 cm long, connected to a free standing socket witch allows a 8P8C plug to inserted in both ends, making it possible to plug the male ends from the original datacable to the aftermarket CAT-5 plug(8P8C plug) together.
I removed the CAT-5 cable and used only the original datacable and the problem was solved.
I tested the CAT-5 cable and the free standing socket in a computer and everyting worked fine. So I guess there was nothing wrong with my aftermarket cable equipment.

N81 8GB production stopped in INDIA??

Guys,
   I am considering to buy a good and decent slide phone and couldn't imagine more than N81. I was a little confused about the flavour whether to get the N81 2GB or the N81 8GB version. I just thought of giving it a little hands on and went to a nokia priority show room nearby.
The dealer informed me that the N81 8GB production has been stopped. Can any one of you confirm the same, have you guyz had the same problems?? I need to know the battery life and speed of the N81 memory card version with a 8GB memory card?
        Have any one had serious problems with N81 and i have second thoughts on 5800, but itz a piece of plastic **bleep** i don't even like the UI design and the buggy touch screen hard to get things work?
      Does the N81 8GB version use all of 8GB as internal memory escpecially for some problems with "Need more memory consider closing other applications" problems?

The N81 and N81 8GB have a fairly small internal phone storage memory space (around 12 to 17MB free - depending on the firmware version - coming from the factory).
With the N81 you complement it with a memory card.
With the N81 8GB you have 8GB of secondary mass memory (a separate drive).
Note that this is storage space (to store files, install applications to).
Both models have the same amount of run-time memory (DRAM) available for applications; 128MB in total, and about 40MB free after boot.

N81 8GB blue flash lens and very poor picture qual...

Hello.
I have purchased the N81 8GB yesterday and have two enquirees regarding the camera and the lans. The flash len's is tinted blue which make's taking photos with it, appear as an overall cool tint has been applied to the picture. I have searched the internet to find to why it is blue to no avail. Is this normal?
[IMG]http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm143/technofreak23/blueflash.jpg[/IMG]
Secondly, the 2MP camera quality is appaling. I have seen many test shot's taken with the phone however nowhere have I seen such poor image quality. I am thinking an firmware update might fix this issue. Currently the phone has FW 11.0.045 installed and I am told via Software updater that the FW is up to date, however an quick internet search reveal's that the newest firmware is in the 20x range. (Region setting perhaps?)
Please enlighten me reagrding the previous enquirees.

And what kind of a question is that. I brought it from an nokia representative.
Ill try to take it to nokia care centre.
Hmm it is very hard to justiify If I have scratched the len's or what not. Can you verify is the len's of suck phones as this one mentioned can be scratched easily with an fingernail? If not then it might be the protective film which somehow is challanging to remove (providing the phone has any)

N81 8GB and maps: internal memory lost!!!!

My brand new N81 8GB has 16MB of free internal memory and somewhat 8GB of free external memory (where internal memory in the phone memory [C drive] and external memory is the memory card [E drive]).
The N81 comes preinstalled with the Nokia Maps software, but no maps are pre-loaded.
According to NOKIA, to upload maps on the N81 you need [STEP 1] first to update the Nokia Maps software ON THE PHONE and [STEP 2] then install and run the Nokia Maps Loader from the computer.
The problem that is reported here has nothing to do with [STEP 2] (which works fine and correctly uploads maps on the N81 external memory) but happens already at [STEP 1].
So, starting with an N81 with 16MB of free internal memory, I connect it to the pc in PC SUITE MODE and I install the Nokia Maps software update, and after installation the phone internal memory goes down to 8MB!!!!!!!!!
So, by simply updating the Nokia Maps software (not even the maps) 8MB of internal memory are lost.
I have tried anything to gain back those 8MB, but could not find any solution. I have even tried with X-plore looking into every single hidden and system folder: nothing!!!!!!!!!
The only way was to do a hard reset of the phone and reinstall all software (or a backup, if you have one).
By the way, the Nokia Maps Loader uploads the maps on the phone even if you do not do the Nokia Maps software update.

Same here, but with a non-8GB N81, and it's internal memory is at 1.3MB!

N81 8GB and N-Gage Aplication/Download! Bug

Hello all,
I'm pretty sure someone else experienced this bug. I tried it in several N81's with different firmware versions. I tried lately with the new version v20.0.056 but it still has the same bug.
Everytime you download something directly to your phone (using download for upgrading nokia maps or using n-gage aplication to download new games), even thou you choose download destination and installation destiation to your 8GB hard drive, a part of your internal memory "goes away". N81 8GB only has 17MB free memory (apart from hard drive), which is very small for such a recent phone, other phones released around the same time (late 2007) have around 60's and 120's MB's.
If you try to upgrade nokia maps through download! and install couple n-gage games, your internal memory goes under 1MB, which causes great instability on the phone performance. Only way to fix it is format your internal memory (using *#7370#) but your nokia maps goes to v1.2 again.
I really hope you can reproduce this bug and fix it. Its really anoying having wireless in a phone but you can't use it to "tweak" your phone due to memory issues.
Hope this information is helpfull to improving next N81 firmware version, regards,
Rodolfo Rangel

Well, the most cool feature is the animated menu, with fades, similiar to N78 and 6220c. The rest i didn't notice much, n-gage already coems installed and Navi Wheel still doesnt work very good (expectable thou, since it was the first phone to have it).
My N81 is still mainly for music, the rest i'm not using much. The music player has been stable since the 1st FW version and i gotta say, it rocks using with BH-604 =D
By the way, updating your N81 doesnt delete your phone information (at least in most cases ), just backup your information in case your phone doesn't start up after the update.
Best regards,

Nokia N81 8gb Screen goes crazy

ok so i buaght my Nokia N81 like in january last year and ive been using it quiet regularly....
Until today... I slid the phones slider to reveal the keys to write a text message, when the screen went crazy with funky colours and such lines and random things on the screen. If i slide it up and down while its like this it changes its effects and stuff as if its something to do with the contacts of the slider and the screen. If i let the screen black out into powersaver it returns normal but if i slide it again to close the phone or open it back up it goes nuts again.
i tried leaving the battery out but no use.
LOTS OF HELP please ?
i was thinking a factory reset ??

Hi! I have the same problem as well! And this is the SECOND time this is happening! The first time I took it back to my SP, and they then replaced it with a brand new handset; that was 10 months after using my phone for the first time. Now, 8 months after receiving my brand new handset, I have the same problem again!
What was very strange to me, before it first happened, was that my slider became REALLY tight and difficult to manouevre, so I slid the screen up and down as it felt like there was something obstructing the slider, and out came a clear piece of sticky plastic film... I took no note of it, until the same thing happened to me about 2 weeks before my phone went wonky again.The funny thing is, my fiancé has the 2gb phone, and he seems to have no trouble at all with his handset, and he's now had his phone for more than a year (that's longer than I've had both of my handset before going crazy), so I'm thinking it must be a problem with the N81 8gb models. Now I need to take the phone back AGAIN, which I'm not very happy about... I don't want to have to take my phone back, or repair it, every 8 to 10 months... It's a waste of my time AND money.
Oh, and another thing... when they replaced my handset, I asked them what the problem was with my phone, and they said that they didn't know, but that they couldn't fix it! SERIOUSLY?! So now how exactly will I get to repair my phone if the Nokia technicians can't even find the problem NOR fix it?! I've basically spent ALL this money on a phone that only works for a few months until it's irrepairably broken... I don't think I'll be using another Nokia after this again...

As with any kind of product from any company, a new Nokia phone model may be put on sale anything from a couple of weeks to several months from the public and press launch.
There are also a number of factors outside of Nokia's control that have to be taken into account -
(1) Once launched and made available for sale, many operators and high-street retailers will only order new stock in accordance with their normal routines, ie: they might place orders with Nokia at certain intervals, or they might not order new stocks until sufficient numbers of their existing stocks have been sold.
(2) Once Nokia has orders for the new model, stocks have to be distributed to the operators/retailers, who then have to get the phoens into their own distribution chains to the various outlets.
(3) In many markets, operators dominate the mobile phone market, and in these cases you can bet your bottom dollar the phones will be repackaged in the operator's boxes with the operator's versions of the firmware before it hits the shop shelf.
(4) SIM-free phones are, in many markets, only available direct from the manufacturer or from independent retailers. Nokia does not decide how many phones will be SIM-free, ti depends on the individual market as to how dominant operators are.
(5) Sales dates will also vary from country to country

How to delete a corrupt software from your N81 8GB

Hello all.
I'm new to this and i was just wondering if anyone could help me.
I need to delete or remove a corrupt software on my N81 8GB.
The problem is that nothing is working and i don't want to format my mass memory.
Though if formatting is my only resort how can i back up my mass memory and keep my data safe?
Any other way to remove it?
Anything is appreciated
Thanks in advance
Infamousblood

Download Nokia PCSuite 7.1.18.0 and Nokia Software Updater 1.4.85 from Nokia site, then install NPCS first. Connect phone. Then NSU. After that make a memory backup, first on your memory card, next by Content copier from NPCS. After this Open NSU and follow commands.
But after backup memory you can try to soft reset by dialing *#7370# this reformat your phone and restor software as from factory, but with latest software, if you updated.

Generally. However SW upgrade on N82 allows to keep user data. Where your videos were stored? MM card?

N81 8GB Firmware V20.0.056 APAC

I would like to ask when will Nokia release the firmware for APAC region? I've seen the APAC firmware leaked in certain forum however NSU do not have the latest firmware for it yet. It still showing me the latest firmware as V11.0.045
This is what I found in some forum
http://blueshow.net/vbb/read.php?tid=496681&fpage=1&toread=&page=1
APAC Firmware for N81 8GB V20.0.056
I am really dissapointed with the efficiency of Nokia and I have been a Nokia User since year 2001 (Nokia 3310) and I have bought more than 20 different model. I hope Nokia should take my request into consideration and release it quickly for the APAC region as EURO had their firmware upgraded already. My phone product code is 0554833.
BR, Ken.

Unable to install Ovi Maps 3.1 on N81 8gb

One of my older phones i've recently upgraded it to the latest firmware v11.0.045 RM-179. I've been trying to install the latest ovi maps onto the phone but keep getting the error insufficient disk space. So far I've removed most of the installed demos off the c-drive that i know won't be used, but i've only managed to get upto 8mb free from a whopping 25mb c-drive!!
There isn't a c-drive cleanup program like we have on the N97 either. I've installed DrJukka to see what's on the z-drive but i've no idea what to clean up. I've removed all cache and privacy stuff from internet too.
Anyone out there have any positive ideas on how i can free up some more disk space?
Thanks in advance.
Bagz Rules

I am unable to get the free navigation working on my N81 8GB. I have tried multiple times to format and load nokia maps which loads maps 3.1 on the mobile phone. I am doing this using Map updater and map loader. Whenever I start a navigation the phone needs to go online to the shop and then takes me to the page to purchase a 1 month or 1 year subscription.
When the navigation is free then why pay.
I purchased a bluetooth gps device to connect to my phone so that I could use the free navigation but cannot use it.
Can I get the ovi maps 3.3 sis for mobile by email. I have been trying to get the free navigation for almost 2 months after purchase of the phone.

N81 8GB can there be another memory card working w...

....................................................i wanna know becuz i wanna buy a n81 8GB and thinking of putting another memory card? Is the 8GB hard drive or a memory card. And is there any Wi-Fi?And is the screen bigger than N72? And one of my friends is saying that there is a problem with the buttons(the numbers) like they are messed up and when he puts it in his pocket the button get pressed.
Nokia N72

the 8gig is internal memory (hard drive) and you don't have a slot for another memory card...only the new n96 has that accessibilty and it has 16 gig internal hard drive...the screen is quite big...and the keys are not a problem 4 me....

N-Gage on Nokia N81-8gb.

Hi,
I have got an original N81-8gb (RM-179) the one that came with a demo version of the n-gage application before its first release. (Or pre version 1 of the n-gage 2 if you see what I mean). I have had no problems with it (or the device) until I came to update the n-gage client to the latest version. Unfortunately the client fails to install (regardless of how I get the installer on the device) with an error about it being a"built-in component" which I suppose it was when i first had the device, but I was able to install the first full release version.
I'm running the latest firmware 21.0.10 (Or something like that, its reported as being up to date with the Software Updater) and Have tried uninstalled everything and even reset the phone to factory defaults all to no avail. As a side note I also cannot even uninstall the n-gage application as it doesn't appear in the AppManager and pressing the 'c' key on the icon to delete also fails.
Does anyone have any ideas as the customer care email address is completely useless as they don't seem to bother reading your email and only tell you to...
1) Install the latest firmware (I already am)
2) Install the n-gage app (I can't thats the problem)
3) Reflash your n95 (I don't own one)
4) Goto 1.
I just hope that someone else has had this problem and can help. Thanks in advance.
- Skavenger.

Do a hard reset, and then try again to install the n gage application into your phone.
Hard reset (the three key code/reset). Turn off the phone. Press and hold three keys together, the green/talk key, the * key and the number '3'.Then, turn on the phone and don't let the three keys before you see the nokia hands logo/nokia boot up screen.Warning!You will lose ALL your phone's data/files!

Any comments for N81 8GB?

Hi,
May I know if anyone have used N81 8GB? How is it? I managed to have a look at the phone, the lower part of the front panel seemed rubber and sponge like...look fragile. The keypad also got 1 layer of rubber stuff...not those solid stuff...
The functions seem attractive. Any comments?
