Fed up with constant feed issues on c6280

I've had endless problems with my c6280 regarding paper jams. I've cleaned the rollers, tried different paper and I'm about ready to bin it.
The problem occurs when you change paper. If I've been printing with plain paper stock and then switch to photo paper from either tray or attempt the reverse you get endless paper jams, miss feeds or just flat refusal to feed at all (empty tray error). The only thing that seems to work is to keep printing over and over until it sorts itself out which gets extremely expensive with the photo paper (chewing through 20+ sheets before it works) and frustrating.
From examination of the paper the rollers are grabbing the paper way to hard (leaving plainly visible deep indentations or creases) then that is registering as a miss feed or a jam.
I'm really at the end of my teather with it now and under increasing pressure from spouse to "buy a bl**dy printer that works". Since this wasn't some cheap-o-printer-from-tesco I'm not impressed with this lack of reliability.

Hi All,
Thanks for your suggestions, but I know it's not an app nor is it my SD card. I have received a new SD card and after receiving it did a factory reset and it still happened while using the factory provided music player. I'm on my third phone and it happened after I got that one too with no apps having been downloaded. I used the Amazon Cloud Player to play some music and in less than 2 mins of playing my first song it happened. There are several ppl talking about this issue on the internet and not one single Verizon person has acknowledged that this is a known issue.
I'm convinced it's a software issue with the Android OS as these issues started happening around the Gingerbread OS rollout on my phone. I'm left to decide do I go to a new phone with a different OS (i.e. the iPhone which I'm not a big fan of), try a new phone w/ the same OS but a different brand of phone, or wait and pray that the next update that Google does will fix this issue. I've been told by Verizon that there is a known issue with the phone booting up on its own, which mine also does, and that will be fixed in the next update. I'm hoping that the update will happen soon and that it will also address the issues I'm having.
Let me know your thoughts!

Fed up with speed and connection issues since exch...

Last Monday BT done some upgrade work at our local exchange. From that point onwards we have had speed and connection issues.
I use a Belkin G Router rather that the Homehub some that we can run a printer through it and that is plugged in to telephone socket via an extension. But before we blame any of that we have gone back to the Homehub2 so we could see the difference and there is very little.
We live in the countrside so broadband speeds are not great in any case. About 1.8 mg I guess but we have always had no problems. It was good enough for us and we could watch Iplayer.
I was getting fed up with drop outs and speed and yestereday an Openreach guy came out tested everything could not find any problems apart from speed. He made some calls and was told our band width had been capped. He had that removed and yesterday evening speed was a bit better.
Today just as bad again.

Hi Welcome to the forums
Your high noise margin will have a major impact on your speed
If you post the full stats from your router
For homehub – type 192.168.1.254 into your browser
Navigate to ADSL Settings or use the A-Z at the top right of the home page and scroll down to ADSL Settings and click on it
Click on More Details and then post the full results.
also post the full results from http://speedtester.bt.com/
Have you tried connecting to the test socket at the rear of the master socket
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
also you could try the hints given by poster RogerB in this link they may help http://community.bt.com/t5/BB-in-Home/Poor-Broadband-speed/m-p/14217#M8397

Submitting Issues with Podcast Feeds

Having feed issues. My host feed http://partyfavorz.podbean.com/feed is valid and I can submit it without any problems. However, I don't receive the email confirmation that it has been received and under review. In fact, I can submit it multiple times without iTunes telling me that it has already been submitted. So, I know there is an issue there. My other feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/partyfavorz (which I prefer) and iTunes tells me it's a duplicate feed. So can't submit that one. Both are valid feeds and I'm out of options for submission. Any suggestions?

My host feed http://partyfavorz.podbean.com/feed is valid and I can submit it without any problems.
FeedValidator cannot validate this feed because its length exceeds their limits. Attempting to subscribe manually in iTunes (from the 'Advanced' menu) fails. Loading the feed in FireFox is very slow, presumably because of the length, but I also suspect the server is being slow to respond. The feed contains masses of encoded data in the description tags which iTunes will not read and which are bulking the feed up. Evidently iTunes cannot read the feed, and this may be the reason - I can't immediately see anything in the feed to crash it but obviously I can't read every line and as I say FeedValidator doesn't help.
My other feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/partyfavorz (which I prefer)
This feed can be read; the FeedValidator report says it is valid but throws up a number of errors and you should look at these.
and iTunes tells me it's a duplicate feed.
Not sure why, since it's not in the Store.
I would suggest, since you say you prefer the feedburner feed, that you look at the Feedvalidator comments and deal with anything which seems necessary. Then change the title of the podcast slightly (you can change it back later) and if possible the feed filename. That will make it look like a different podcast and you may be able to submit it.

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.
The internet goes out and I have to reset network setting each and every time. This is only a temporary solution which by the time I release the line with Spring or leave the apple store the issue is back. Sprint indicates that it is a know issue with the Iphone 5 and apple says it is a network issue as Sprint's network is not up to par with the Iphone and can not meet the expectations on the Iphone 5.
I have attached a few picture, as you can see it clearly says I have 5 bars and 3g available but I have no connections what so ever.
This issue affects all data and so I can not send or receive picture messages, use apps, or access the internet. The data goes in and out intermittently and it seems the phone chooses what I can and can't do.
For example I can watch Youtube or Vevo videos but I can not access Facebook or Instagram.
Is anyone else having this issue?
I will soon loose my patience....
I have reset my phone three time and have reset network and other setting mutltiple times.

Anyone else fed up with the 14 day Policy, I am. Lets do something about it.

I posted this in the Motorola forums also and now that I can finally post in the Verizon forums, I’m posting it here too.
This phone (Droid Bionic) worked perfectly the first 14 days accept for one glitch where it toggled to 3G while in the same place and I called into Verizon and they said to take out the battery and SIM card and restart it and it seemed to work fine for the next few days, until the 15th day, past the return point. I wonder, do these companies try to stall us past the 14th return policy so they can lock us into new contracts and equipment?
Now after the 14th day the phone toggles from 3-4G all the time no matter where I am and disconnects me from the internet with I get an email notification. I call Verizon on the 16th day and they give me the canned rhetoric about the 14 day policy and that they will send me a replacement BUT can’t guarantee that it will be new, more likely it will be refurbished. WHAT THE ****. I just paid for a NEW phone not a used one and within 30 days they want to send me a used one…NO WAY IN HELL is that acceptable. The car lemon laws are better…you get a new one.
Well guess what, they tell me that THEY and Motorola are the ones that made these policies…SO, I’m here to ask everyone else that is also fed up with this **bleep** to lobby, boycott, raise hell if you have to, to get these **bleep** policies changed to at least 30 days, like any other product we buy in the USA.
It’s real interesting that the phone worked fine for 14 days and then it went to crap. If I want 3G I have the HTC Imagio that worked fine for many years and was still working fine when I got the Droid Bionic, I don’t need a new phone to get 3G. I think the manufacturer and Verizon are in this together, knowing that their products are built like {word filter avoidance} and won’t last past 14 days, thus the policy.
After 15 days of gripping to Verizon, they are having me purchase a new Droid Bionic (so I don’t have to get a used one) and will re-start my contract for 2 years, then when I send the crap droid back to them they will credit my account…this is doable, ONLY IF the new phone works. But it is a {word filter avoidance} hassle. We are the consumer buying YOUR product, we should be treated better.
According to Verizon, Motorola is coming out with a patch or software upgrade…sometime in Nov. that is supposed to FIX this **bleep** service.
Well Motorola, if it doesn’t, I’ll be under a new 14 day return policy until the last day of Nov. and if the “Fix” doesn’t work, I’m taking this worthless piece of crap back to Verizon and I’m going back to my 3G HTC.
You Manufactures need to get it right, OUT OF THE BOX, not have the consumer pay for the product, give them only 14 days and then have them locked into a 2 year contact then you fix the problems. That’s BULL**bleep**. And I hope others will join me in lobbying,, call your local TV news channel, boycotting and if we have to, raise hell with all these companies, like you, Verizon and all the other phone service and phone making companies to change the 14 day return policy like Srpint and AT&T...as the Verizon rep stated about thier 14 day policy.
If you don’t change your policies, when and IF I buy another product from Verizon, if it glitches even the slightest, instead of calling in for help and getting the stall tactic rhetoric of restarting this and pulling out that to make it work right to stall me past the 14 days, I’ll send the **bleep** thing back 50 times if that what it takes to get a product that works so I don’t get locked into the purchase or the contact if I can’t get something that works.
I am furious and I’m not going to stop raising hell until you and companies like you start taking better care of consumers like me that spend their money on YOUR products.
If this next phone I get doesn’t work I’m going back to my HTC 3G. And I’m not done with you people. I’m going to do whatever it takes though legal means to see to it that you and companies like you change your **bleep** policies and stall tactics to keep us locked into products that are crap.
And another note to add: In talking with some of the reps at Verizon, when I ask that an email be sent to me to verify the conversation and I get: “Well we can’t do that”, you are lying. I did have one of your reps send me an email. The fact that you won’t tells me that you are trying to keep our conversation off the record so it won’t come back and bit you in the behind later. Your big company with all its technology can’t send an email…{word filter avoidance}. Its not going to stop me from waging legal war on you for the crap you put us through.
This was my 2nd post on the Moto forum:
I have spoken with someone at Motorola and they invited me to send in my phone to them and then 5-7 business days after they receive it they would send it back fixed or replace it. However, they would not send me a loaner phone and referred me back to Verizon for that…NOT going to happen.
We the people made these companies successful and pay them good money for their products; they need to treat us better when it is THERE product that doesn’t work properly.
I also addressed the update issue with the person from Moto, they couldn’t tell me what issues it will address or when it would be released, only that it’s going to happen sometime in Nov.
That is why I say this: If it doesn’t work right out of the box and there is 1, even 1 minimal hick up, I’m sending it back 50 times if I have to within the 14 days and I’ll keep doing it until I get one that works or finally get fed up with crappy equipment and go back to my 3G HTC and to hell with Verizon’s contract and Moto’s equipment.
Also I have learned talking with the person at Moto that it is ONLY Verizon that has set the 14 day policy and has nothing to do with Moto. Another bit of incorrect info I got from Verizon, and I quote: “We have to abide by the manufactures policies they set and we cannot change the 14 day policy…OK so who’s lying here, Verizon or Moto?
Doesn’t really matter, we the people need to take action and put a stop to this outrageous **bleep**. How? By sending these **bleep** things back the minute they don’t work, within the 14 days unless they change it to longer, like at least 30 days and don't let them stall us with their **bleep** over the phone.
And two, if we do have a glitch that we have to call in about because the product doesn’t work, the time clock starts over but our contract count down time does not if we have to have it replaced with a NEW product or decide we are fed up with the crappy product and want to cancel it all together and go back to what we had, within the 30 day period AFTER the last glitch we called in about. If we can get them to change it to 30 instead of 14.
That will keep them and the manufactures of these products on their toes and stop selling us crap that they later have to fix. It should work out of the box and if it doesn’t 30 days down the road, there should be no issue in replacing it with a NEW product (NOT a refurbished one) and the countdown times starts again.
If any of you know some powerful political people, you need to ask them to start writing some new laws about this stuff unless these company’s police their own first and take care of these issues, but because they are making gobs of money off us, I doubt they will, so we have to force the issue and MAKE them do it though laws.
To add:
I'm not done with you Verizon. If this next Bionic doens't work and the update in Nov. does not fix it I'm sending it back and going back to my original HTC and canceling the NEW 2 year contract. Your CELL server is by far the best, the equipment is not. And I will not and should not be held to a 2 year contact if you cannot provide me with a product that works.
You really need to change your policies on your own before we the people make it a law. Take the initiative and make it right.
You want to be the best company out there, then don't follow Sprint or AT&T, be your own company and don't tell us on the phone that "All companies are doing that"...are you as lame as all the other companies out there or can you stand on your own and be the best?

Update:
The “CS supervisor” at Verizon still cannot arrange for me to take back $100 of worthless accessories if I send the 3G Bionic back…
So, as the last poster stated, I did cancel my other two lines with Verizon and went to AT&T (I’ll save $400 per year) and canceled my Hot Spot (a saving of $360 per year); A loss to Verizon of $1,236 per year, so I will recoup my expenditures if I send the current 2nd 3G Bionic phone back. I get 4 bars with AT&T and only 2 with Verizon at my location...hum...imagine that.
I may just be a little cog in the big wheel but if enough of us did this, and we should, it would get their high and might attention that we customers are not going to let them Lie to us or as the CS super said, “miscommunicate” pertinent information that effects our buying/spending decision and drags us out past the 14 day limit.
The final word on any update is that there isn’t one anyone can talk about or knows about, but it seems that all the techs at Verizon have the same problem with their droids; they activate the Airplane mode, then deactivate it and the 4G will come back. That’s all dandy unless when you get disconnected from the internet it closes out important things you were in the process of doing…isn’t that special. Very lame Verizon, very lame.
I’ve done a lot of research on Version’s Androids and it appears that ALL of them since they’ve been out have this same problem with the flipping from 4 to 3G and other connectivity issues…so it’s not a MOTO thing unless MOTO has built a problem product…it’s Verizon’s towers or signals etc. No one has figured it out and neither has Verizon or we wouldn’t have these issues.
And the "jargon" I get from Verizon that MOTO is being very “secretive” about the update is laughable...the real reason I believe they say this is because there isn’t one. Every other company out there in the tech world that knows what the problems are let people know that they are going to release an update and the issues they are working to fix…the “it’s a secret” is a sly way of putting us off because they don’t have any freakin idea what the problem is and how to fix it.
I will say that WHEN this Bionic works like it is supposed to, it is awesome. My biggest issue with this company is there deceitfulness and not telling us the true story up front and their lame 14 day limit...but I understand why that was put in place, their equipment only works for 14 days then takes a dump. So I doubt they will ever change it back unless they grow a pair and start selling good equipment that works out of the box.
They should be very up front about these issues BEFORE the customer signs on to a new two year service contract; miscommunications like these that have a bearing on money the customer is going to spend and contractual requirements they will be bound by…in other professional occupations, is considered a criminal offense and the sales people that commit this offense are dealt with by imprisonment and loss of licenses.
Why should Verizon be treated any differently?
So for future buyers, beware that when you sign on to a new 2 year contact and put out some bucks for this 3G Bionic, it will work sometimes but don't look to Verizon or MOTO for any solution, they don't have one.
Enjoy the phone, when it works, but expect significant problems that WILL happen regularly (flipping back and forth from 4-3G, disconnects from the internet when you get notifications or when it flips from 4 to 3G, battery not charging when you are connected to your computer, etc.), returning the phone will not fix the problem because the problem is not known to Verizon or MOTO. The techs will tell you do disconnect the battery, the SIM Card, get a new SIM card, restart and/or do a hard factory reset. None of this works.
And if you don’t want to get locked into another 2 year contact, understand that your 14 day count down starts the day they send the phone to you, not the day you activate it, so that means that you really only have 12 days to try it out before you return it the post mark on the fed ex return package cannot be one day past the 14th day or you will be on the hook. And don’t forget to also return the accessories to store before the 14 day marked on the receipt about 12 inches from the top (it is not in bold so look very close at the date at the top also) if you buy them at a Verizon store.
If you replace the SIM card, as I did, don’t let some rep that isn’t paying attention to your file notes tell you that your 14 day count down is later than sooner, they (the reps) get confused or whatever they do, but they look at SIM card activation and not when the phone was sent to you or for that matter when you activated it.
I’ve been under a lot of “miscommunicated” information from the start with my first 14 day 3G bionic so although I’ve done a lot of ranting here, I hope my information helps others not get stuck or at least you will go into this with eyes VERY WIDE OPEN.
It has been 2 years since I looked into any new phone and I was not aware of all the NEW scams, trickery and deceptions Verizon has taught their reps and supervisors to use on us, but it makes sense, their equipment is so faulty they had to figure out how to keep the money coming in.
DO NOT TRUST VERIZON to be helpful, they are there ONLY to lock you into contacts and stick you with equipment that they and their manufacturer cannot and do not know how to fix.

Just Switched To Mac's and Need Help With A Few Issues!

Hi All,
I finally did it and switched to a Mac!! Never thought it would happen as I always felt guilty about the cost but after 5 laptops crashing on me - well, I just could not take it anymore! I managed to get a fairly good deal on a 15" Macbook Pro - 2.2/120GB version. I still don't know much about the mac way but am trying to learn so any help would be appreciated!
1). Is there any kind of video tutorial (preferably free!) that I can use that will help me learn the Ma OS X? I have Tiger 10.4.11 on my MBP (Did you hear that - MY MBP!!!)
2). AOL Assured me that they fully support Mac before I purchased (only 5 times!) but after I had bought it - they then told me that they do not! I got the AOL disk for Mac but it kind of ***** - features are missing etc. Does anyone in the UK run their Mac's with AOL and does it run as per normal? Any advice with AOL & Mac?
3). AOL also told me - hey, no probs - of course you can transfer all your old emails, favourites folders, personal filing cabinet from a PC to a Mac - but then, after I bought it - the so called dedicated Mac Experts at AOL tell me that simply is not possible - What advice can anyone give me who has switched from PC to Mac with AOL and who needed to transfer all their stuff over? AOL tells you totally different things depending on who you talk to and even from what their web page state! I am really fed up with them!
4). If I am ever successful in getting all my many years worth of data from AOL on a PC to a Mac, I am really intent of changing ISP's - what are the best ones for Mac that offer good Mac support, good deals and no charges for telephone support?
5). I was initially happy with Tiger as again, AOL assured me they supported it but not Leopard (even their website says so) and as I stupidly thought that it must be true (we are talking AOL here!). Now I know that they don't support anything Mac, I am contemplating moving to Leopard - I am a little cautious as I heard there were/are many bugs and unhappy leopard experiences - have the majority of these been solved yet and is it advisable to change to Leopard or should I wait until an updated version comes out?
6). My MBP was originally bought in the US but is registered to my name in the UK. it has 6 months Apple warranty left and I wish to buy Applecare. Apple says it 'recommends' buying Applecare in the country at which the item is registered (not bought, as I understand it). Does that mean, if I buy Applecare in the USA, Apple UK will still accept it and service my MBP as they would do any other or will I have to have the hassle of sending the thing to the USA if it needs attention? Applecare USA T&C's state only for the 50 States & Canada and Applecare UK state only for the UK & EU. Both however state international servicing?! I am a bit confused on this one. I travel a lot and need to know, that any Applecare I buy will not then be limited to just the places they state in the T&C's. As It reads to me, Applecare purchased in the USA/Canada will not cover the UK/Europe/ROTW and vice versa. Is this true or am I missing something or just plain thick?
5). I really wish to upgrade the 120GB HDD. My understanding is that it must be done by either Apple (who charge really silly money) or if correct, at an "Authorized Apple Service Provider" who of course will be much cheaper. If true, does this mean at ANY authorized apple service provider on the planet or just ones in which the item is registered? If I do the upgrade with a service provider, will Apple then also service the new HDD if something goes wrong as per normal anywhere in the world or will they then say, sorry, will not service the new HDD and you have to go back to the place where you had it installed, even though it was one of their authorized service centers? (that would really suck)!
6). The spelling and dictionary (and a few other things) are set to US English - how can I set to UK English? I have tried but to no avail so far.
7) What and how should I set the Firewall settings so I will not get attacks by any form of malware? (I do not know much about this area and what the implications mean)!
Well, that's it so far - please bear my ignorance, I am so new to Mac's and hope this to be one of the smarter decisions I have made in life! Already I have strange sensation that I never had with all those years of Microsoft & PC's - I kinda feel reassured, safe, that if I have problems, they will get sorted, My life will now be easier and not having to worry so much about crashes, viruses, trojans etc, gives me a sense of liberation and contentment almost - very strange feeling but a **** good one! (if only the women in my life were like that)!
Thank You All From A PC to Mac Switcher (and NO! I do not feel guilty or scared anymore)!
SuaveBhav!

I can help you with your questions about AppleCare, and can also reassure you that both the macbook pro and Leopard will be worth your investment and the time you are putting into figuring out how to get your data across. I switched from windows when I bought my macbook a year and a half ago and would not use any other system now. The other day I completed the transition by erasing parallels and Windows from my system entirely.
As for AppleCare, you can get warranty care anywhere in the world, no matter where you buy your AppleCare. Mine was bought and is registered in the US, I live in Slovakia, and have had it serviced several times in Austria and Slovakia under the warranty without any problems at all. There are differences, however, in exactly what the warranty covers from place to place, in accordance with the law in each place that AppleCare is issued. Even though I live in the EU, my agreement with Apple is an American one, and the American guarantees hold. If EU law would demand that Apple fix more things, for instance, than American law does, I could not get those things repaired under my agreement, and vice versa.
Basically, though, I understand my agreement with AppleCare to be that they will fix all problems/damage that are not my fault free of charge for two years after my initial one-year warranty runs out, and that is good enough for me.

Fed up with your X6 anyone? Add your bugs...

X6 owners - fed up with your terrible quality phone?
Please have a read and add your own bugs if you want - I want to write to Nokia with some of the main ones that need to get sorted, and soon. Surely with enough support / evidence they can't ignore us (although I'm not holding my breath!). You know, I'm struggling to find a thread on this forum which isn't about an 'issue', 'bug' or 'problem' with the phone. I'm fed up with it. We all paid a lot of money for the phone (whether it was part of a contract or not) and I just want it to WORK.
It is without doubt the worst phone I've ever owned. Anyone else with me?
Glitchy, buggy, slow and unpredictable don't even begin to describe it...I'm now on my second one, with the first one deciding to pack up a few months back with a dropping signal problem (from full bar to no bar in about 5 seconds, and then back to full back about 15 seconds later) - Nokia deemed it BER and after a letter from me, replaced it with a new one...the fact that the second one has exactly the same issues as the first confirm to me just how terrible the build quality of the phone is.
Any of the below issues sound familar to anyone? Some are phone related, others app/Ovi/Nokia related :
* Ovi Maps freezing during navigation, even when you're not interacting with the phone or running any background apps. Literally just spontaneously. Requires hard restart most of the time as you can rarely force it to close.
* iPhone 4 style signal issue whereby holding it in a normal 'phone grip' fashion results in signal dropping completely or nearly completely.
* General signal drops during calls - anyone else notice you can be on a phone call in a full signal area (with 3G etc) and calls will just drop; take a look at your phone and you have no signal? Give it 30 seconds and you'll be back up to full bars again.
* Spotify (if anyone has it) just randomly crashing ALL THE TIME, again without any background apps running (ironially it seems to be more reliable with a few things running in the background)
* Facebook app thinks stuff that happened two weeks ago is the latest news that it wants to tell me about. Hit refresh and it still thinks old news is new news. Reinstall and wiping of all user data to no joy (same issue even post-phone reset)
* "Realplayer" able to play about 3% of videos I want to watch on the internet - basically a few MPEGs...don't even think about a low-res MP4 stream (where we get the dreaded "Trying to play partially" message). Any UK owners tried running a stream off m.tvcatchup.com? Good luck!
* (Just a general gripe here but) Lack of widget support for the homescreen and general lack of integration support for 3rd party apps to the OS - why oh WHY in this day and age of smart phones are S60v5 Nokias unable to have apps like Facebook spider in to some of the phone's functions? E.g. notifications on the homescreen (the original iPhone was able to do this in January 2007, its now September 2010 Nokia - wakey wakey) and profile pictures linked in with the phone's address book (my friend's HTC Desire does this VERY nicely; I'm jealous).
Before my X6, I had a 6230i (don't laugh, I know its ancient but it worked a treat, absolutely bomb proof which is why I never bothered upgrading)...I just don't understand how backwards this phone seems to be in terms of its flimsy build quality and diabolical OS.
This will definitely be my last ever Nokia. Seriously...I've been a Nokia fanboy all my life but I'm just embarassed by this phone. It is absolute rubbish and I so so so wish I'd gotten a Blackberry or Android. Talk about less hassle.
I'm running v21.0.0.4, although I feel I might as well be running an Alpha build of S60v5.
Any other annoyances and bugs, boys and girls?
p.s. the camera may be its sole redeeming feature - very good photo quality for a phone - takes the iPhone to the cleaners.

On balance I agree with bazyeo, I am another long term X6 owner (Dec 09) and on the whole I am fairly pleased with the phone. Sure it's not perfect and one of my major personal gripes with the phone is the relatively poor RAM allocation that Nokia decided upon during the hardware design but it's hardly a show stopper for me. I guess I was spoilt as my previous phone was a Nokia N82.

Oh come on!! This is a user support forum, you know? Where people come for help when they have problems with their phones. It's pretty obvious that you'll read the majority of threads where owners have issues... that's because they have come here for help. You're hardly going to get a bunch of threads where owners turn up out of the blue to thank Nokia for a problem free phone. That's like saying all you see at a hospital are sick people.

Not even close, try the N80 on V3 firmware... now that was an order of magnitude worse.

... Any of the below issues sound familar to anyone? Some are phone related, others app/Ovi/Nokia related :
* Ovi Maps freezing during navigation, even when you're not interacting with the phone or running any background apps. Literally just spontaneously. Requires hard restart most of the time as you can rarely force it to close.
* iPhone 4 style signal issue whereby holding it in a normal 'phone grip' fashion results in signal dropping completely or nearly completely.
* General signal drops during calls - anyone else notice you can be on a phone call in a full signal area (with 3G etc) and calls will just drop; take a look at your phone and you have no signal? Give it 30 seconds and you'll be back up to full bars again.
* Spotify (if anyone has it) just randomly crashing ALL THE TIME, again without any background apps running (ironially it seems to be more reliable with a few things running in the background)
* Facebook app thinks stuff that happened two weeks ago is the latest news that it wants to tell me about. Hit refresh and it still thinks old news is new news. Reinstall and wiping of all user data to no joy (same issue even post-phone reset)
* "Realplayer" able to play about 3% of videos I want to watch on the internet - basically a few MPEGs...don't even think about a low-res MP4 stream (where we get the dreaded "Trying to play partially" message). Any UK owners tried running a stream off m.tvcatchup.com? Good luck!

Ovi maps does hit hard on resources but I personally haven't suffered the issues you speak of.
I can get my X6 to drop maybe a bar (at the very max 2 bars) of signal if I wrap my hands around the handset. Again for me, not a big issue.
I'm afraid I don't use Spotify or Facebook so can't comment on those issues of yours.
Knowing what codecs to use helps with video playback using Real Player. A search here should give you the required information. I can run MP4, FLV & WMV quite happily provided they have the right codecs that the X6 can handle. If you want to enjoy m.tvcatchup.com then try installing the 3rd party web browser called Skyfire.
There are quite a few alternative 3rd party homescreens that can add widget functionality to the homescreen.
Good luck with your letter to Nokia, I'm afraid I won't be signing your petition. As I said right at the top of this post, sure I have niggles with the X6 but none of them are show stoppers for me and personally I can forgive the X6 most things because I really enjoy the quality of the screen and the capacitive touch interface.
*EDIT* I almost forgot to ask... is yours a SIM free X6 or a network branded X6?

HP officeJet all in one 6310 paper feed issues at input tray

what could be the cause of my HP officejet 6310 printer intermitantly grabbing multiple pieces of paper at the input tray?
I have been using the same paper for over a year or 2 with no issues up to the last few months. I have blown out any dust and tried to clean the rollers with alcohol to no avail. Is it a part worn or did I not clean the right part?
It seems to happen more often with less sheets in tray. any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Here is a link to a document that covers paper feed issues on the OJ 6310. There's a video which shows some steps about what to do. Even though you have cleaned rollers the video may contain more information about cleaning other rollers that you may not have cleaned.

Fed Up with My not so SmartWatch

Still having problems trying to get my Smartwatch to register with my Samsung S5830 Android phone It just will not register and so its totally useless as it doesnt even work as a watch without the phone !. Any help would be appreciated. I've done the reload of apps etc. There's no way to check the watch has got the latest OS as even when its plugged into my W7 PC it just charges. Really fed up with this item. I did a bit of research before buying it and I even swapped to an android from my Iphone so feel a bit 'seen off'. There's absolutely no help from Sony which is really annoying you would think they had someone technical available to resolve whats probably a minor issue.

Have you installed the SmartWatch app from Play Store? If not, please do so.

Fed Up with FiOS DVR 7216 - Convince Me NOT to Buy a TIVO

My network: Mid Tier Internet, MultiRoom DVR on Std Def TV, HD STB (to share DVR), 2 basic STBs.
I can't tell if it's the DVR itself or if it's the way the programming comes into the house (i.e. bouncing around the internal network), but too often I get chop. The audio stream stays intact and live, but the video stream chops and drops maybe 5 to 10 frames per second making it really really painful when watching sports.
This happens on live TV, it happens on multiple channels, it happens on DVR playback when the DVR isn't recording something else, and DVR playback when the DVR is recording something else. And this is happening on the TV to which the DVR is connected (so I don't think it's related to multi-room streaming.) Specifically, it happens a lot and under a host of different circumstances.
I have done a few tests on the DVR playback side since I can control it. I am watching, I get chop, I flip back 10 seconds and play through the same time period again.... no chop. That tells me it wasn't recording it choppy, it was playing it back choppy, which leads me to conclude this DVR sucks. It can't handle the most basic function of a DVR - playback on the tv to which it's connected without any issues. A VCR would do better than this piece of junk.
I pay $20 / month for this DVR. If I have to shell out $300 for a Tivo XL and then pay the same $20 / month to get a DVR that works and doesn't chop up all my programming, then it's worth it to me. Oh, and don't get me started on how lame I think the DVR software is. When I pause a sporting event with virtually nothing saved on the DVR, I only get 10 minutes of pause? And then when it unpauses it takes me back to live tv instead of resuming from the pause? Absolutely ridiculous - it makes the thing completely unusable for my purposes. I don't know if this 1.9 software will make a difference, but I'm pretty fed up with this piece of crap DVR BOTH from a hardware and software perspective.
Can somebody shed any light on these issues or give me any reason to not ditch the FiOS DVR? Even worst, is there any indication these problems could be deeper rooted than the DVR? I would be REALLY **bleep** if I move to TIVO and end up with the same issues.

Have you contacted Verizon support about your problem? Sounds like your STB is sick. So if you haven't let Verizon work the problem, you have an important step to take before you consider Tivo or any other solution.

Fed up with ipod mini!!!!

I'm fed up with the ipod mini! Is there anyone from Apple that reads these boards that can help me? Or is there a phone number I can call to get assistance?
I've had my ipod for a month and the only thing it's been good for is a paperweight! I've read all the postings and tried different suggestions. I've posted my own questions and I've performed the recommendations of the people who have responded, but I'm unable to get itunes to recognize my ipod! In addition, when my ipod is connected and states"do not disconnect," and then it goes to the menu screen it locks my computer up.
I've downloaded the new version of itunes, cleared my ipod and restored it, but still without any success.
Can anyone help?

I have the same issues. itunes 5.0.1.4 doesn't recognize my mini. ipod updater doesn't recognize my mini either. i have uninstalled itunes 5 and reinstalled 4.9, but it didn't work still. something in itunes 5 changed something in my system that reinstalling 4.9 doesn't fix it. updater just shows that i have no ipod connected. if i try to get updater to check for my ipod during the updater installatin, it just sits there and says "waiting for ipod". it's not my usb port because i can read and write to my ipod. i did the entire list of chores that apple suggests on the site including disabling all other functions and services, reinstalling the com port, uninstalling everything, reinstalling everything, getting windows install clean up, e v e r y t h i n g! nothing worked.
I then installed itunes 4.9 and updater 1.4 in my other laptop. i was able to update to firmware 1.4 using that computer. when i put the ipod into that computer w/ itunes 4.9, everything works fine. of course, it asks me if i want to link that laptop w/ my ipod. i said no, because i want to use my original laptop w/ the ipod.
anybody have a solution for this? it's like we all have the same symptoms and going to the same doctor and we end up having to diagnose ourselves. this is extremely annyoying and inefficient.

Fed up with Verizons slow EVERYTHING!

I have had Verizon wireless for a long time. Up until they went to 4g, my service wasn`t too bad. I live so close to a new tower now that I can see it from my rooftop. My service is slower than dialup, when I can stay connected. I have tried 4 different modems on my desktop and laptop running win xp. I`ve called customer service and they run me through all kinds of tests and checks, uninstall and reinstall, system checks, etc. Every time my system is right. This has been going on for over a year. I have even installed external antennas on my roof to help get a signal, 3 different antennas too. I`ll dial up to Verizon internet and have 3-4 bars on top and 3 on the bottom (1x). Then after 2-3 minutes it goes to no bars and disconnects. Then in 1 minute it reconnects with 3-4 bars etc. This has been happening at all times of the day and night with different computers and modems. I live just south of Roanoke,Alabama and they just put in a new tower less than 1/2 mile from my house (as a bird flies). I get no better service since the new tower went up than I did before it went up. Everytime I call customer support they say there is nothing wrong with their system and there have been no complaints. I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING!!!!! Everybody in my area that has Verizon wireless say their service is bad too, but Verizon won`t do anything about it. They even claim I`m in a 3g area!! I`m fed up with them now. My contract is up in a couple months and I will NOT keep my service with Verizon and will recommend to everybody to NOT waste their money on Verizon. Then I read where Verizon is laying off thousands of employees because they don`t need them and paying their CEO millions each year...for what? Verizons service has gone down hill these past few years and I`ve had enough of paying $60 a month to sit and look at a screen than doesn`t go anywhere!!
Verizon is good at talking the talk but they really drop the ball when it comes to following through. For $60 a month I`ll go with a sat dish for my internet and have the speed and reliability Verizon promised THEY had when I signed up.
I HIGHLY recommend everybody avoid Verizon wireless.

Dansimonds, I regret to hear about the issues you've experienced with slow speeds in your area. I do show this as a 3G area, but no 4G towers in the area, so that should not affect you. What device are you using? Have we ever submitted a trouble ticket on this line for you?

FED UP WITH MY BB STROM 9520

Hello,
I had purchased my BB 9520 ( removed) from Vodafone store,Sakinaka Mumbai in Jan 2011. Since then, I had to visit store twice with Service request for excess heating up of my BB handset during conversation as well charging. At the moment, the set is with BB Service. Untrained/half-trained Vodafone Store staff are also not cordial.
I was not provided any stand-by unit neither request of replacement of my set was consideered. hand-set is gone for 2-3 weeks.
I'm quite fed-up with this hand-set/model and request immediate interference from Black Berry & replacement of my set.
Thanks

Fed up with poor, and now NO, print quality.

Like many other comments I've seen on this forum I am totally fed up with my HP Photosmart 6515 printer. I just bought a new black cartridge, even though the previous one APPEARED to still have a sufficient amount of ink remaining. I ran through several diagnostics, including the clean print head and align cartridge tests and still no luck. I'm ready to find my nearest HP outlet and toss this SOB on their front step. Any ideas, other than what I just said?
