Help ? Nokia 5800 Xpress skips MP3 music file

Phone has latest firmware.
The music mp3 files (at 192kbps or above) were all ripped from CD, no DRM involved.
I copy them onto the phone memory card (8gb). I use drag-and-drop to do this on
Windows Vista. When connecting the phone USB cable select the 'Media Transfer' option.
The tracks all play fine on the PC. Some play fine on the phone, but many it plays just a few
seconds of, skips some seconds, plays some more, jumps to the next track etc. I get only
perhaps 30-40 seconds from each track. Any ideas why it might be doing this????

I found a fix. Nokia Care told me to select 'Media Transfer' when connecting the phone to the PC via USB to copy music files. This did not work, then they ran out of ideas.
Googling around I found another Nokia webpage that said to select 'Mass Storage' instead. This works fine (when simply drag-dropping music files in Windows onto the memory card). No more skipping

Do this:
A hard reset (x6, 5800 and 5230 only) is done by the following (warning, this deletes all data on your phone):
1.) Turn off the phone and remove battery for 5min
2.) Reinsert battery
3.) Press and hold the green, red and camera buttons. DO NOT LET GO.
4.) While holding the three buttons, press the power key to boot the phone up.
5.) Keep on pressing until you see the country selection screen.
A correctly done hard reset would show you that everything on the phone (contacts, messages, calendar entries, etc) would be deleted. So it is advisable to back them up. Upon restoration, do not restore settings or files if possible.
Also, format your memory card. Just make a copy of your songs and pictures on your PC.

Not Enough Memory [Nokia 5800 Xpress Music]

Hello,
i have a nokia 5800 xpress music mobile phone.
recently, i've been facing an error while trying to change my ringtone from the profiles
when i tap on the screen on the ringing tone tab in general profile (or any other profile), an pop-up tells me the following "not enough memory to display all ringing tones, only read-only memory tones will be displayed"
then, when i tap again , the ringing tones menu open but for sure not listing all of my music files !!
i thought it's a firmware problem, i updated my 5800 to the latest v30 firmware, but the problem still persists.
please, feed me back
your help will be highly appreciated, thanks in advance
Best regards,
Solved!

take out your memory card and consider the first two options. make sure you have a back up and read carefully
1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345
2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)
3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
hard reset - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( 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 (unofficial version but works) is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen.
If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

Updating NOKIA 5800 Xpress Music!

Hello everybody!
I've got problems with updating my fabulous Nokia 5800 Xpress Music! Well, I've got still installed 31.0.101 firmware version. So I wanted to update my phone to "41" or latest versions, but nothning happens! I run my "Nokia software update" and it says that "there is no update available" or "your phone is already up to date"! Thing is the same if I press all know function *#0000# and try to update there. Also the same in Nokia PC Suite...
So, Nokia fans and employees, please help me with some tricks, that I can improve performance of my Nokia... Thanks a lot!

Reasons why a phone cannot update:
1. It is a country variant - country variants often get the updates later, or have updates skipped altogether. A Turkish country variant product code for example, skipped v40 and updated from v31 straight to v50.
2. It is network branded - phones acquired from network providers or these providers' stores SIM free are branded, and will not get updates until the networks approve and modify the updates to their liking.
3. Special editions - These special editions are chartered editions and may never get updates unless taken to a Nokia Care center.

N_gage in nokia 5800 xpress music

why nokia 5800 xpress music dont has n-gage but nokia n97 has it and they are nearly to each other and they are from the last phones

After gathering information from various sources I have finally managed to compile a decent guide to install NGage on the Nokia 5800XM using the files which have been circulating the web for the past week.
If you have any questions please PM me on the forum or reply to the topic and I will try my best to help.
Installing NGage
Step 1
Download the NGage Install Package which I have compiled below:
- http://www.1filesharing.com/download/RIROTQGS/NGage%20-%20Nokia%205800.rar
Step 2
For this to correctly work, you will need to have your phone hacked, this should be no problem providing you have a little confidence and common sense. I can confirm that using HelloOX does work as it is the method I used and I can use NGage fine. If you're phone is already hacked with HelloOX and you're having trouble, ensure that all patches (open4all etc. are applied and set to auto using ROMPatcher.
Step 3
Copy the file "NGage 2.0 Installer.sis" to your phone and install it. You will need to sign the file using SignSIS GUI or a similar application, you should already have a certificate if you have hacked your phone as you need to sign HelloOX to hack successfully. The install process will take quite some time and you will be prompted to press "Yes" to various warnings. I can confirm that no harm has come to my phone from this process, however, proceed at your own risk. I take no responsibility.
Step 4
Once NGage has been installed, you will be able to find it under "Applications" on your phone. The icon will be an orange "N" and it will say "Games" underneath. To play NGage games they must be copied to "E\N-Gage" with "E\" being your memory card.
Controlling NGage
Since NGage is designed for phones with a keypad, and the Nokia 5800 is almost completely touchscreen, the controls must be customized. I have so far come up with two solutions, they are as follows.
Control Method #1
This is the most stable and easy to configure control scheme, I can confirm this works OK.
Step 1.
Sign and install "Virtual Keyboard.sis" which can be found in the "Control Method #1" folder of the Install Package.
Step 2.
Run the virtual keyboard application from your "Applications" menu and then start the NGage application. You can use the Virtual Keyboard to control your games.
Control Method #2
This control scheme is still a work in progress but, with some fiddling and a varying degree of luck, you may be able to get it to work. Some people have confirmed it working with different settings. I feel that this setup, if working correctly, would be the best way to control NGage on a Nokia 5800. I would like to request feedback from anyone who has this method working!
Step 1
Sign and install "Virtual Keyboard.sis" and then "Virtual Key.sis", both of which can be found in the "Control Method #2" folder of the Install Package.
Step 2
Start up "Virtual Keyboard" so that you have it running on screen and then proceed to start up "Virtual Key".
Step 3
In the Virtual Key application, choose "Options" then "Load Mode" and choose "Custom Mode 1".
Step 4
Press "Options" then "Add". Highlight "Original Key" and then press the Right arrow on the Virtual Keyboard application you loaded earlier. Then highlight "Mapped Key" and hold down the "Volume -" key then press the "Volume +" key. If all has worked correctly the mapped key should change to "Vol+". Then do the same for the following
Vol+ .................. Left
Vol- ................... Right
No ..................... Up
Yes ................... Down
Camera .............. K
Then press "Options" and save your "Custom Mode 1".
Step 5
Set the Virtual Key application to run in the background and completely exit the Virtual Keyboard application.
Step 6
Start up the NGage application and try to play a game. Hopefully the Up/Down volume keys will control Left/Right when holding the phone horizontally, and the other keys should do what you mapped them to above. You may have to use the volume keys in the same way you had to set them (Hold down Vol- and press Vol+ etc. So now hopefully you can play NGage. Let me know of any other control schemes you guys come up with!
The installer and key mappers are freeware, but you need to purchase the games legally at www.n-gage.com.

Problem with Nokia 5800 Xpress Music

Hello. I have a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music for about a year now and been taking great care of it. I don't know why but a while ago it started freezing at times when i would try to turn on the camera..had to multiple times restart the phone and remove the battery in order to make it work (In the open applications menu it would show the camera running but you wouldn't be able to use it). Then i noticed that the two touch buttons it has in the main screen (dialing and phonebook shortcuts) wont work either, no matter how many times i press them nothing happens. Same goes for the Green and Red button on the left and the right side of the phone (Accept/Decline buttons), they won't work either when i'm on the main screen (wallpaper), they do work in the main menu though. I tried resetting my phone to manufacturer settings but nothing happened. What is wrong with my phone? Can anybody help me with it very please?

@guilty_gr
Welcome to the forum!
When you say restored "factory settings" I don't know whether you mean that you backed up essential data then keyed in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by yourself); I would remove any memory card first and see if any difference before restoring device.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

If you want to connect to WLAN, just go to the connections in settings, and choose WLAN. Refresh the list and connect to any which is available. If you see none, you're in a wireless-free area.
Near enough what i posted mate, so why bother

Hello,
I just got my Nokia 5800 Xpress Musik 2. days ago and today it just stopped to vibrate without any reason.
The vibration is completely dead, i'm not getting any vibrating feedback while using the touch screen or the lock switch. Even on incomming Phonecalls the Phone doesn't vibrate.
The Phone isn't connectet to the computer or the charger and all Vibration-Features are set ON.
I also tried a hard reset an reboot...nothing works : - (
Thank's for your Help

Hey Guys..
I am experiencing the most frustrating problem with my Nokia 5800 Xpress Music. It doesn't happen all the time, but it happens more often than not. When I receive a phone call, the phone vibrates and rings. As soon as I go to pick up the phone, the ringing and the vibration randomly stop altogether. I can still answer the call, but there is no vibration or ringing! If I dont touch the phone, it rings and vibrates for the entire call. Its only when I pick it up and move it round a bit.
This is the most aggrovating problem and I would really appreciate some help. Thankyou so much.

Streamed MP3 music files losing first few seconds

My Apple TV seems to drop the first few seconds of MP3 music files when they are streamed from iTunes, but not when they are synced to the Apple TV.
The number of seconds that are dropped varies from none at all for some songs to 20, or much more than that ... but seemingly never more than a minute.
When I select one certain song in a particular playlist -- "Song for the Mira" by the Garrison Bros. -- the time shown is 5:19. When I press play on the Apple TV remote the time changes to 5:00, very briefly ... just before the Apple TV starts to play the song with its first 19 seconds missing, as if it were really a 5:00 song.
From that time on (unless I reload the iTunes library) every time I select the same song from any playlist, or from under Songs, or Albums, or whatever, the time is always shown right away as 5:00. So Apple TV is "remembering" the time of the song.
If I cause Apple TV to reload that iTunes library, the time goes back to 5:19 until I actually play the song again, at which time it becomes 5:00 again.
The amount of time that is sliced off from the beginning of a song is always consistent for that song. So if the amount is 12 seconds one time for a particular song, it is always 12 seconds.
I have not altered the start or end points of affected songs in iTunes.
As far as I can tell, this never happens with Protected AACs.
It never happens with synced copies of the MP3s, only with streamed playback.
I have the latest versions of iTunes (7.3.2) and of the Apple TV software (1.1).
Restoring the Apple TV to factory settings, re-downloading the software, etc., have no effect on the problem. Nor does restarting my iMac, which is running OS X 10.4.10. Nor does restarting the various base stations on my wireless network, all of which have the latest firmware.
Anyone else have a problem with the beginnings of streamed MP3s being truncated? Anyone know what to do about it? Thanks.

Since my last post to this thread I have discovered:
(1) I was wrong in thinking there is no pattern to the number of seconds lopped off at the beginning of various MP3s when streamed to my Apple TV. Actually, I have found that the same number of seconds is dropped from every song in a particular album or compilation!
So my "Sounds of Nova Scotia, Vol. 1" compilation -- which contains the "Song for the Mira" that is reduced from 5:19 to 5:00 at the start of Apple TV's streamed playback -- has 19 seconds removed at the start of every track when its tracks are streamed to Apple TV. (It does not appear to be significant that this particular track seems to be rounded to the nearest minute. Cutting the first 19 seconds off the other tracks in the compilation does not bring them to an even minute.)
My Beatles' "Abbey Road" album has not 19 but 30 seconds dropped at the start of every streamed track!
(2) I was also wrong in reporting that the time change from, say, 5:19 to 5:00 is "remembered" by Apple TV the next time I select the affected track from a list on the TV screen. Actually, the next time I select the track, it shows up as 5:19 again. But if I press Play, that changes to 5:00 in the split second just before the track actually starts to play ... and then the progress bar that appears at that point, when the actual song is being played, reflects a 5:00 total time, not 5:19.
To recap what I said before, this happens only when I stream (even from the syncing iTunes), not when I play a synced copy. AACs are unaffected. Not all MP3s seem to be affected, though all in an affected album or compilation are affected the same way, by having an identical number of seconds lopped off. I have the latest software/firmware in all my devices. Restarts/resets do not help. The problem persists in copies of copies of the affected MP3 tracks streamed from iTunes _on my other Mac_, a MacBook Pro. The problem does not occur when I play the tracks right in iTunes on either machine. I am not using manually set start and stop times on the affected tracks in iTunes. I do not have *Part of a Gapless Album* or *Remember Playback Position* set in Info in iTunes Preferences, though I have tried setting *Part of a Gapless Album*, with no effect on the problem.
Anyone have any more ideas as to what might be causing this? Thanks.

How To Transfer MP3 Music Files At A 96kb speed, From A CD To A Zen Mic

I have a couple of CDs with MP3 music files on them. One problem is that the music is recorded at various speeds from 28 to 320kbs. I know of to transfer the files over, but I can't seem to lower the speed down to 96kb. I want to know if it is possible to change the recording speed to 96kb when transferring MP3 files from a CD source? Thanx

You can of course use one of a number of MP3 converters to change the track quality e.g. Creative's MediaSource converter. Be aware that dropping the bit-rate isn't the best approach, it's better to encode from the original CD.
And as others have said, I would strongly recommend staying at 28kbit/s for MP3 (using LAME) or at least listen to a test track or two before encoding the lot.

Missing Task App and MP3 Music Files

Hello! I've reset my phone to factory default recently. I can't seem to find the Task App as well as the pre-loaded MP3 music files that can be found in the Walkman app when you bought the phone.
Any idea where I can download these?
Thanks!

Task app should be downloadable from google play or come with a future update.Did you try that?About the songs,you should tell someone who has the compact to send them to you.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien
