Incorrect setting hostname over DHCP with systemd

I'm using `netcfg' with `ethernet-dhcp'. My `/etc/dhcpcd.conf' contains the line
option domain_name_servers, domain_name, domain_search, host_name
Unfortunately in most cases (randomly?) my host introduces itself as `localhost'. If I run:
# dhcpcd -k eth0
# dhcpcd eth0
it gets quite confusing:
$ hostname
correct.one.obtained.from.dhcp
$ hostnamectl
Static hostname: n/a
Transient hostname: localhost
Pretty hostname: n/a
Icon name: computer-desktop
Chassis: desktop
Machine ID: fcad978cb45784804c79ace4000004dc
Boot ID: a282df65df6c4ed0910536ab38087300
Operating System: Arch Linux
Kernel: Linux 3.7.5-1-ARCH
Architecture: x86_64
and for some ttys it is `localhost' while for others: `correct.one.obtained.from.dhcp'.
Looks like a kind of magic or systemd bug?

/etc/host allows static IP to name bindings. It has absolutely nothing to do with the problem described above.
We are using DHCP. A workstation can obtain any IP address (one of 200) and any name (one of 200) via DHCP. The workstation name can be work27 or work85 or work165 or work194 - I don't know it initially. I ask the DHCP server for it and the server sends me some. The daemon (service) that controls DHCP is responsible for obtaining it and setting for the system. Dhcpcd.service does it. Netcfg.service does it or does it not - depending on some random factor.

Nokia 5800 - eBay sell off...?

....I've recently purchased (from eBay) a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music phone (all boxed / excellent condition / good price with 3 months warrantee still remaining)...
I was astounded when doing a search on eBay the number of people selling their 5800's... I found at least 30 of all prices and condition ect.
Is there another NEW Nokia due in the pipeline or are they all going to Apple iPhone ? (I know about the new'ish 5300) but is there another model on the way ??

All Text Messages got deleted from my Nokia 5800 X...

My phone got struck and the touch was not responding. Tried to switch it off, but the lock key and the power button(switch on/off button on top of the phone) were also not working.
As I was not able to do anything, I removed the battery and then replaced it. After the battery is in place, I switched the phone on.
It was more of a shock for me..!!
When I opened Messaging..no messages were present in my Inbox, Sent, Drafts and My Folders.
I used to store the messages on my Memory Card. So I quickly checked other data on the memory card like the music files. All of them were fine and even the music files am able to play.
I called up Nokia Care Technical Wing, but they are of no use. They talk like any network customer care people rather than technical experts.
I was completely disappointed with this **bleep** from Nokia.
I now changed the default saving memory of messages to Phone Memory but not sure if this works or not.
I was an avid fan of Nokia and purchased the phone a month ago with v40.0.005
I guess someone has already faced the problem, but no solution. If anyone has any inputs please provide.
I have lost my messages rather memories by using this device. Please suggest the solution if I can get back those lost messages.
@NOKIA: Some one has faced this problem while he was using V21.0.025.
Refer this thread: /t5/Messaging-Email-and-Browsing/Nokia-5800-deleted-all-messages-after-dead-battery-HELP/td-p/588279
But still donno why you people havent came up with probable cause and its solution..!!

Its difficult to look for a solution when the problem seems to be completely random and almost unrepeatable. Happened to me once on v20 and I cant find out how to repeat it. The best "solution" I could come up with was to set my phone to back itself up every day automatically, and sync my messages to Ovi Suite every morning and evening.

Nokia 5800 software update (from V31.0.101 to V40....

Does anybody works for Nokia here? I'm still hopeful to get real answers from real Nokia Support employees.
This is my post so far. An I also responded on the I hate my Nokia 5800. But I dont really hate it yet. I jus need the sotware to update.
Hi Nokia!
I purchased your Nokia 5800 Xpress Music mobile phone and I am trying to update the software/driver to improve 1: Touch Screen scrolling, 2: version of OviMaps, 3: Ovi Contacts, 4: SW application, and 5: WLAN performance.
I called technical support for mobile phones, unfortunately it is unavailable according to the recording, i've waited for thinking its a wrong message, but nothing happened the call dropped after the message.
The current software version is V31.0.101 and it does not upgrade. I have tried using my phone options to upgrade/update the software, this did not work, i have tried using the Nokia Software Updater but it can not find the new version of the software, and I have tried searching for the new software version by using my phone code under the battery and still it can not find the new software version.
I need help on resolving this issue.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Have a good one.
Cheers!

Done all the reset and the reinstallation oof firmware.
NOKIA 5800
Mobile Issues
The phone touch screen is not very responsive.
Limited setting/shortcut you can set on the main screen.
Alarm is inconsistent. Sometimes it’s late.
Clock settings/time zone is not working properly.
The charger port on the phone is a bit loose. Charging gets interrupted even if there is only little movement.
Option is to update NOKIAs 5800 software. Current version is V31.0.101, the latest version is V40.0.005.
Nokia PC Suite / Nokia Software Updater cannot find the update
Tried to use the mobiles code, still cannot find the update
My mate has the same mobile NOKIA 5800 on a Virgin Mobile plan; he was able to update the software. I got images of his phone and my phone with different versions, mine was the old version his got the new 40.0.005 His mate has the same phone as well, which they manage to update the software. He tried helping me update the software, but ended up unable to update the software and got frustrated.
Option is to speak with TeleChoice Barrack Street. After TeleChoice checked the phone why it will not upgrade they suggested having the phone serviced/checked by Nokia Care in Morley.
I let Nokia have a look at the mobile/issue, they told me they will be able to update the software for me, I left my mobile with them, and after 3 business days and the going back and forth to Nokia, and they were unable to update the software. Very sadly, they said it’s being locked by Optus.
I am using 3 as my provider, the mobile I bought it outright from TeleChoice, no plan whatsoever. So I don’t understand why Nokia said it is being locked by Optus.
The option provided for me is to patiently wait for updates, which is available now or to return the product.
Now I am processing a replacement of the device from TeleChoice 10/02/03, hoping to have the issue rectified. They should rectify this, or there will be a violation againts fair trading.

Actually, it has nothing to do with locking to their network. That's a totally different problem altogether that's independent from the branding.
What's happening here is altering the firmware so that it contains Three's logo and links to some of their services in the menu. Plus maybe a few alterations to maintain compatibility with the network, although they should be minor since unbranded phones will work on Three.
The trouble with making these alterations to updated firmware is that it takes time and therefore money to do it, and they get nothing in return. That's why it's such a low priority for network operators to approve updates.

WTR54GS Fails to obtain a DHCP IP Address from Upstream

Greetings!
I had effectively given-up on Linksys Router WTR54GS, as it was advertised that it could be plugged into a pre-existing network (friends home network, a hotel room ethernet jack, etc), but sadly the WTR54GS itself is incapable of obtaining a DHCP IP Address from an upstream DHCP server (like the hotel, etc).
I have tried repeatedly to work with Linksys Support but everyone wants to blame the upstream router, suggesting that I change it's configuration to "Bridged-mode". Yeah, right. Like I'm going to walk down to the hotel lobby main desk and tell them that they need to place THEIR network in bridged mode just so my WTR54GS will work. I was willing to believe that the first router (version 2.0) that I was sent was defective, and let Tech Support talk me into returning it to my vendor and seeking a replacement.
I receieved the replacement (this time version 1.0) and had EXACTLY the same problem. I returned that one as well (marked defective) after talking with Ellen in Linksys 2nd Level Technical Support. She promised this would be referred to the Linksys Engineering group for further study. This was 4+ months ago.
I would like to buy another one, but am hesitant to buy because I just do not trust Linksys Technical Support anymore. Can someone please confirm that Linksys Engineering is aware of this problem, acknowledges its existence, and has resolved (or is at least working on resolving) this problem?

So you have connected WTR through the correct (blue) port to the internet connection?
You have configured the WTR for wired internet connection type?
You have configured the WTR for DHCP?
What does the WTR say on the Status page?
Have you tested the WTR inside your home network?

Removing Mail For Exchange from Nokia 5800

Hi. My Nokia 5800 is running the firmware version v.30.0.011 (latest available).
I installed MfE via the App. Update.
However, now, I don't need it anymore and have removed it using the application manager.
The problem now is that whenever I go to file manager and try to send any file, it shows the option "Via Mail for Exchange" despite it being non-functional.
Is it possible to remove that entry from my "Send" list?

Only E-Series can handle security policies. It might happen that a N-Series or other S60 devices supports one or more policies but all are only supported by E-Series.
Device lock might work on 5800 buit if there is a policy that is not supported by the device access is denied. MfE supports all 2003SP and 2007 security policies and a subset of 2007SP1.
Please check the TSG on www.businesssoftware.nokia.com.
There are several other things the admin needs to check. Please try it with a E-Series device.

Photos taken from my nokia 5800 cannot be viewed o...

Good day!
I am having some trouble viewing some of my photos taken from my 5800. recently, i took some pictures using my phone and then copied them to my laptop. the troubles began when i cannot acces all the recent photos that i took. when i use microsoft picture viewer and even microsoft paint, the photos cannot be viewed. instead, a message "this file is not supported. can be opened using another program." appears.
i have not encountered such problems before when i had a nokia 6500. could you please help me how to work through this problem as soon as possible?
thanks!

What is the file extension of the photos that you have transferred. I haven't faced this issue with my Nokia 5800. Try transferring again coz if it's JPEG then you should be able to view them easily. May be they are corrupted.
Writing is the best way to talk without being interrupted.

DHCP Client not setting obtained nameserver info

Solaris 8
The dhcpagent file was modified so that the nameserver info is requested: PARAM_REQUEST_LIST=1,3,6,12,43
By default, #6 was missing. After a boot, running dhcpinfo and requesting the data for #6, results in three IP addresses being displayed.
The problem is that those three values are not set anywhere, so no resolving is done. If I manually place the values into resolv.conf, then resolving works. Obviously I need this to happen automatically.
Any clues as to what to do so that automatic configuration of nameserver info obtained via DHCP will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Having multiple DIFFERENT nameserver addresses is fine, it will just try them in sequence. But I see no point in having the same IP repeated and that might be a bad thing relative to performance (or it might be smart enough to ignore duplicates)
As for the .plist files, no idea. Since the Cisco VPN is not using system prefs I don't think that would be an issue, but don't know what these files are really used for. i also tired the same setup (installing the Cisco VPN) on a system that has not been touched in ages (an old mac cube server as my backup/media server) and it had the same result. That leads me to think it is something on the remote end, yet my linux box connects and sets its nameserver just fine. I don't recall just when this started happening, maybe its a 10.4.10 issue (at least both Macs are on 10.4.10) ???

Isync transfers data to Ical from Nokia 5800, but not the other way round

When I sync my Nokia 5800 using Isync, diary entries from my phone are moved onto my Mac, but entries made on my Mac are not transferred to my phone. This leaves my phone calendar without any entries. Am I doing something wrong here, or is this a bug? Does anyone know how to transfer this data back into my phone? My contacts swap both ways no problem. I have installed the Nokia 5800 app. Many thanks.

I'm not sure what else to suggest. As the Nokia 5800 is not natively supported by iSync you must be using an iSync Plugin, so I'd advise contacting the author of the plugin - it may be buggy and need fixing.

Nokia 5800. From RM-356 to RM-428

I bought my Nokia 5800 last september at Nokia Store in Chicago. I live in Costa Rica, so I asked the sales person if the phone will work in CR, she looked into a computer and she said, yes.
The phone works excelent in GSM, but selecting UTMS results in no connection being established at all, I see the 3G sign and that's it, no strength bars.
Software version: 31.031013216.05, RM-356.
I called the phone company and they said that I need switch from RM-356 to RM-428. Is this possible?
Thank for your help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The RM-356 is the Asia Pacific version.
Actually it's the global version that's sold everywhere but in China (because 3G and WiFi are forbidden there) and in the areas where 3G is on the 850/1900 MHz bands.
More to the point, as others have pointed out, it's not intended for use in the USA or in Costa Rica. It shouldn't have been sold there.
Just out of interest, what is its product code? It's a 7-digit code starting with "05", printed on the product identification label under the battery.

Restoring Factory Setting for nokia 5800

i just installed a new theme for my nokia 5800 then when it was installed i tried it then suddenly my phone hanged and i cant press any buttons. I removed the battery and switched the phone on again then now my phone is running real slooooooow now i can't even unlock the keys now!!!!! ... anyway i was thinking that i'd restore the factory setting of my phone it will run smoothly again. anyone knows how to do it?? thanks in advance

From Ovi store you can set your account preferences to install to memory card, whenever I sideload applications, the phone usually asks where I want to install. Not everything can be stored to memory card, most Nokia stuff insists on installing on C and so only install Nokia software you REALLY need or want !
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :
