Major Update Problem!! N97

I recently linked up my phone to my PC and ran an update as I hadn't done it in a while. The update seemed to be going fine until it restarted and then said that the memory was too full to complete. It froze and now when I turn the phone on, the Nokia logo apears and thats it. Nothing. To turn the phone off, I have to take out my battery.
I haven't been satisfied with this phone since I purchased it.
I think I wil have to take it back to Vodaphone, unless anyone has any help?
Thanks

Cool story bro!
Well anyway, you could try "three finger reset" (use google how to use it). If that do not help, you should take it back to Vodafone and after that get a proper phone where do not read anywhere Nokia.
Have fun!
Me, Mac and my misengineered N97

  • Major Update Problem - Please Help

    Forgive me if this topic has been covered before, but its late here and I don't have time to trawl through the forums.
    So, here's the deal. I purchased the iPod Touch software update (the one that lets you use apps) for $12.99 and I was told, after purchase mind you, that all of my songs and playlists would be deleted if I installed the software. The problem is that the playlists only exist on my iPod Touch and I have songs from so many versions of iTunes that I have lost count (my friends and I share songs all the time), therefore if it is all deleted it will be nearly impossible to piece my iPod back together. Is there a way to backup all of my iPod's data with iTunes so I can restore it after the update?

  • Problem after latest update for N97

    Hello!
    I just take the latest update v.20 for N97 and my phone block.It show me that the phone memory is full and now doesn't wont to work! I reset so many times but nothing ... the problem is still! Do you have someone who can give me advise what to do!

    I have recently updated my N97 as well, and right after I couldnt turn the phone on!
    had to remove the battery twice.
    then when I did turn it on, it said memory full need to delete stuff! That was rubbish because it wasnt full,
    but I deleted stuff anyway cos it wouldnt let me use any apps or simply see my background.
    But now I have a background, but not 100% of it.
    N97 is disappointing me!

  • N97 update problem

    Hi!
    I can't update my N97,Ovi suite shows that connection is lost when I'm trying to update,NSU shows that update failed or that USB isn't connected directly.My N97 version is 11,when I tried to update it to v12 it also didn't work,and now v20 isn't working Code is 0576410,all programms show that there's an update,and in web conforme that. What can I do to update my phone?
    When I tried to update to v12 it atleast restarted and then showed that connection is lost,with v20 it shows nothing on phone. 

    I got same problem, it's incredible how can be possible that nokia doesn't realize of this bug.
    Solved making the update from a pc with XP sp2, instead of Vista, or XP SP3.
    See my post for more information:

    Cheers! 

  • Problems after updated my N97 to v12

    I've updated my N97 to the latest software version and it has made things MUCH worse.
    The photos application now doesn't work at all, every time I open it the phone freezes and has to be turned off and on again. The only way I can look at photos now is through the file manager, which is a pain because it doesn't give a preview of the image and you can't flick through them.
    The camera now causes the phone to freeze up after a picture is taken. It still takes a picture and saves it, but after you take the picture you have to turn the phone off and on again. Very tiresome.
    I have tried backing up the device using the Ovi Suite but it's useless, just doesn't work at all. Not too much of an issue because I've only just got the phone and there's nothing important on it.
    Has anyone else had problems like this? All advice appreciated.

    I have the same problem. I updated my phone to the latest version 2 days ago; and, so far so good until I turned off and now is frozen. I can only see the nokia logo and I do not what to do!!
    I've waited for 30 minutes and nothing!  I am so upset. I need some help here
    I have so many apps that I bought at the OVi store and I am afraid  to lose them
    Thanks!

  • 3.1 update, major audio problems!

    so i updated to 3.1 today and just noticed some major audio problems:
    1. when I answer a phone call I can't hear anything through the ear piece, but the caller can hear me. i can only hear them when I put them on speaker. same thing with voicemail.
    2. the ringer works when I get a call, but text, voicemail and email chimes/tones aren't audible at all.
    3. the built in speaker no longer works when playing iTunes music, YouTube, or games. i can only hear audio when plugging in headphones.
    all my settings are the same as before the update, but despite adjusting the volume controls/rocker none of the audio settings are working properly. i also reset/restarted the phone (home + sleep buttons) a few times, but no use. what the he'll is going on?
    Message was edited by: d.c.1

    I've got the same thing- from the speakers, no ring tone, games don't have speaker audio, no email or text audio-- except with the earphones. iTunes music plays thru the speakers but not games or afore-mentioned items. l've never had a problem before. also reset and restored- still the same.

  • N97 Update Problems !!

    i updated my N97 to software V12. and i got the following:
    1- the Theme Effects doesnt work anymore for any theme.
    2- if the Theme including Audio Theme, it will not work.
    3- sometimes after ending calls the phone hanging and should remove battery and install again.
    any solutions???
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    try the first two codes and see. back up your stuff 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. 
    You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

  • Major system problems, hanging up at startup.

    I'm developing some major sytem problems with my G4 Mac. It all seemed to start with a jumping cursor and then a dying mouse. I could not get the Mac to startup with several trys. It wouldn't even start up off of my external drive. I would get the first four icons in the upper right hand corner of the screen and the it would hang. I tried all of the usual fixes- permissions, disk utiliy, Disk Warrior, zapping pram. I finally started unplugging external items and getting back to original Mac- switching the firewire port in the back of my Lacie external drive helped for awhile, but now I'm getting the jumping cursor again and fearing I'll get a hangup again. Any ideas on how I can solve this problem? If not, can you point me somewhere for instructions on how to reinstall the system software? I have already installed a clean system on my external drive. Once I reinstall all of my apps there, and get it running properly, can I move all of that to my internal HD somehow? My original system disks for this computer is Jaguar 10.2 if that helps.
    Thanks for your help,
    Dick Skover

    Dick,
    Some observations and notes.
    Have you tried using a different mouse, or changing
    the port it is plugged into?
    Yes, I tried and am using a inexpensive Logitech optical mouse. The one that came with the computer seemed to get very eratic and then not work at all. I did try plugging into different ports and that didn't make a difference.
    How did you upgrade from Jaguar 10.2.x to
    Panther 10.3.9?
    I upgraded the simplest way, I guess. I had read about more complex ways to do it at the time Panther came out, but also heard you could do a simple upgrade. I don't remember the exact steps I used. Boy, this is way more complex than my original Mac in 1984.
    What size is your Hard Drive, and how much space is
    available? I should say I have quite a few applications.
    My HD is 75 Gig with 17 Gig available.
    Is your installed RAM original or added?
    Yes, it came installed when I purchased it: 1.5 Gig
    In one post you wrote "My original system disks
    for this computer is Jaguar 10.2..."
    I heard something back when Panther came out that the fact I started with 10.2, didn't allow me to do certain things like archive and backup.
    But in another, you wrote "Yes, my original
    Panther disk and then updated everything via
    Internet."
    Please clarify.
    When I decided to install a clean system on my external HD I just used my Panther 10.3 disk- I didn't go all the way back to 10.2
    "Yes, Disk Warrior found some problems, I don't
    know exactly what they were."
    Were the errors corrected? Have you rerun Disk
    Warrior, to see if they are indeed repaired?
    Actually I ran DW today again on the internal HD and it came up with a couple of problems that it said it repaired. Should I keep running it until it doesn't indicate any problems?
    A couple other things you can check.
    Open System Preferences > Accounts > Your Account >
    Startup Items.
    Is there any item in there that you are not familiar
    with, or did not put there yourself?
    Yes I did try that- I had a repair person come in to help me. He did point that out and we deleted items that didn't need to be there. What he suggested did help for a week, but the problem came back. I called him again, but he said the only thing left to do was re-install.
    From the Utilities folder, start Activity
    Monitor.
    Select Active Processes.
    Watch for whatever process is hogging %CPU.
    Yes he ran activity monitor also- there didn't seem to be programs hogging the processor although we deleted those that look familiar.
    I also have a question about the title screems that pop up on start up. In the past I used to have several things being checked as it went through the process, now I get welcome to Macintosh and that's it. I seem to remember indications that Macaroni was running, but no longer see any of that. I do have Macjanitor also and thought that one of those automatically runs at startup?
    I will run pseudo daily, weekly and monthly tasks now. Is this something that Macjanitor does, or should I run the maintenance scripts periodicaly?

  • My updating procedure for a major update

    I never run a major update right away. I always wait at least a week or so to see what develops. Most problems I see here are the result either of a specific incompatibility with a third party application or plug-in, or some pre-existing software or hardware issue related to that unique user, which only comes to light due to the stress an update writing many thousands of new files causes. Then, there are occasionally, presumably, as in this instance of font and PDF problems with the 10.6.7 update, bugs in the update itself, which affect the majority of users.
    External drives are not that expensive these days. I have two clones on externals and if I'm concerned enough about an update, I can install it on one of these and test it first.
    Here's my own updating procedure. Major updates don't come along that often. It's worth going to the trouble to do this.
    1. Have a backup so if something does go wrong, you won't be left in big trouble.
    2. Verify and if necessary repair the drive from Disk Utility. (To repair, you must be booted from the Install Disc or an external clone.)
    3. Disconnect all peripherals except the keyboard and mouse.
    4. Download the Combo Update from Apple Downloads. It's generally more reliable to update from the standalone Combo than from Software Update, and the Combo, as it includes all updates from 10.6 onwards, may correct any files that have been corrupted or somehow gone missing.
    5. Boot in Safe Boot. Hold the Shift key down at start up. Give it time, it will take longer. (The Safe Boot will also actually check and repair the drive if necessary--and if possible.) Safe Boot loads a stripped down system which may reduce any chance of incompatibility while the update is running. Keep all Applications closed.
    6. Repair Permissions from Disk Utility while booted in Safe Boot.
    7. Install the update from Safe Boot. Keep all Applications closed.
    8. Restart when prompted and give the system up to five minutes to finish the final touches of the update with all Applications closed.
    9. Verify the Drive and Repair Permissions again.
    10. And then I like to restart again.
    One other caution. If you are running updates from Software Update, run them one at a time, never all at once. This gives the system a chance to assimilate each one, especially if restarts are involved, and not choke on them.

    Thanks. It's reassuring to know my obsessiveness (or OCD, if you will) is shared by a least one other person. (Must be others; computers draws us like flies to ** )

  • 10.4.9 - Major audio problems with digital audio

    I have a Digital XMPCR radio with Edirol MA-20D Digital speakers
    I now have major audio problems, the audio is garbled and doesn't sound as strong. Kinda like a FM radio in a car that is loosing signal when you are traveling.
    I use this XMPCR for a couple of hours a day and had no problems this morning prior to installing the update.
    I have a XMPCR that was modified for Toslink/Digital connection. I connect the XMPCR to my Mac Pro 2.66 with toslink cables and connect my Edirol MA-20D digital speakers with toslink cables. I use Amoeba's "LineIn" for audio pass through.
    I thought it might me the FTDIUSBSerialDriver so I reinstalled it, did not fix the problem.
    I also have a real bad "buzzing" sound going on in the background. When I quit JXM (the application for changing channels on the XMPCR), the "buzzing" goes away but I have a rapid ticking sound coming out of the speakers until I quit LineIn.
    Anyone else have any problems with their digital audio input/outputs?

    I dont use the digital XMPCR radio, but I use Digital Performer to record audio and MIDI and I use exclusively the Built-In Audio input and Output and everything is working fine after the 10.4.9 Upgrade.

  • MAJOR EXPORT PROBLEMS! PLEASE HELP!

    Hello. I hope everyone had a nice holiday. I'll try to be brief. I'm having a horrible problem with exporting my films.  I work on a PC. To me, that shouldn't matter, but here's what's been happening.  I shoot my films at 23.976 frames on the 5DMII and the 7D.  My film got into a film festival. They asked for a 720p mp4 file. OK, no problem. I went under H.264, I exported an HD File, with 23.976 frame rate and I checked both boxes for Max Render and I set a 2-pass. I exported and when I played the vid back through Windows Media Player, it felt fine.
    BUT, at the festival this past weekend, I was horrified to discover that my film, and no other films, was having a major sound problem. The audio was about half a second ahead of the footage, so they kind of looked like they were speaking correctly, but their dialogue would finish right before their mouths would. Super embarrassing. All I noted when I saw the tech booth was that they were using a mac laptop hooked to the projector, so I assume maybe it was quicktime they were running? Also, I believe they put all of the vids together as one file so it would run together as one block, but still, I believe most of the other films were shot at 23.976 frames as well, so that shouldn't matter.
    I went home, thinking maybe I just wasn't being diligent enough and I needed to really look at the sound. Maybe it was off. But I keep all of the temp tracks, the sound from the dslr, on track 1 and then just mute it. I unmuted and played both tracks, and there's no difference. No echo, no weird delays, they're both perfectly synched up.
    I've been having this problem for a long time but this was the first time that I REALLY could see the problem, probably because it was on such a big screen. Just my opinion, but I've found that most festivals are running MAC software and it seems like the vids I export seem to have an audio problem being played through mac programs. Another instance, briefly. I did a screening for a feature I edited. I exported an HD mp4 and put it on a friends MAC. The sound was off when we pre-screened it. I have a PC Toshiba laptop, I ran the vid through windows media player, and it felt much better, so we screened using my laptop and it went fine. But what does that mean?
    Has anyone else had this problem? It's not just festivals too. I have a subscription with Vimeo, but every short film that I put up there has some kind of an audio drift problem. It's always minor so some people see it and some people don't, but I'm certain the vids are fine on my timeline. Do I need to export using something else? A different setting? As a quicktime vid? That last question seems kooky since any tutorial I've seen is usually wanting h.264, so I just don't know.
    Please let me know if there's anything I can try or if you just have an opinion. Thanks very much.

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop update problems.

    I was wondering if anyone else is having problems with their Note 4 after upgrading to Lollipop. Since doing so a few weeks ago my phone is freezing/ slow to respond/ going blank screen/ slow to open apps etc. I have just been on to the "tech" help desk who were no help, were not aware of any problems with the update. Yet when I went into an EE shop last week to enquire when a future update would be issued I was informed EE were aware of problems and were working on a fix! I was informed by the help desk to do a factory reset which maybe a last option although time connsuming, I just feel like throwing my phone against a wall it is so slow, prior to the update the Note 4 was super fast. Other advice from help desk was to contact Samsung, my understanding is it is a network problem for EE to address after their tweeks to Lollipop. Any advice much appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply brendonx. I take your point but I have done major updates with previous versions of Android and never had to do a factory reset!
