My phone Battery level, (n97 mini)?

Hi,
I have a N97 mini and I have looked around but I don’t seem to find what my battery level is.
I know about the indicator on the top left hand side, but that’s a very vague indicator.
Is there a way of checking the battery level on the phone a little bit more accurately?
Thanks

You can download free battery utilities that should do that for you from www.ovi.com. There are a few of them there. Just select the ones that best suites your requirement and try it out.

  • Battery level not shown correctly

    Hi! After charging my iPhone5, display continues to show "low battery". If I switch off and on the phone, battery level is shown correctly and decreases correctly till low level; then it rests stuck again. Please help! Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.
    First, try an SMC reset, as detailed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
    Since you mention both battery and performance slowdown, that might cure both issues.
    PRAM doesn't often cause the problems you mention but a PRAM reset is detailed here, because people often do both:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    And your battery may need calibrating, after the SMC reset:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1490
    And if none of this helps, the battery is likely failing. Even though there is no Apple Store, there is probably an authorized Apple dealer or repair center near you. When I searched from the US, this link appeared: http://www.apple.com/ie/contact/
    Another cause of decreased performance is that your hard drive might be getting full. Do you have less than 10% free space? If you recently upgraded to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and you're trying to run it in less than 4GB RAM, that may also be responsible for loss of performance. But neither of these issues should cause the battery problems you mentioned.

  • N97 Mini Bluetooth problems

    Hi:  I have used to have a N86 which worked flawlessly with my 2005 Mitsubishi Outlander Handsfree system.  But when I changed my phone to the N97 mini, it pairs fine but doesn't work properly. 
    When I call manually from the phone, the handsfree takes over and I can carry on conversation with the handsfree.
    When I initiate a call from my car's voice activated handsfree bluetooth, nothing happens with the phone.  It freezes my handsfree (radio) for two minutes. Then after two minutes, my phone says disconnected from handsfree, then reconnects automatically.  I still cannot initiate a call from the car.  But i can still call out as aforementioned.
    When I receive a call in the car, the handsfree engages my phone as it should.  So no problem receiving calls.
    Please advise if this is a bug with the N97 becuase I have no problems with the N86.
    THanks

    Well, - I'm having the same problem as described in the first post. The N97 mini connects flawlessly with some PCs, headsets, and handsfree car systems.
    I disagree with the purpose of remote SIM mode as before mentioned. Remote SIM access is to support the rSAP (remote SIM access profile) installed in some premium handsfree systems (like in my Skoda Superb) and basically lets the handsfree system 'steal' your SIM, including PIN etc. over BT for use with its own built in phone.
    But in my new Mazda MX-5 I am having trouble to place calls with the handsfree car system. It is not a rSAP capable system and I have tried with and without rSAP in the N97 mini enabled, to no avail.
    The N97 mini pairs fine and I can receive incoming calls. Also, I can place calls from the device itself, but when I try to place a call over the car's handsfree system it basically freezes for a few minutes before the car system throws an error. During these minutes I can see on the car display that it looses connection to the phone, albeit the N97 mini still shows connected state. Once these 1 or 2 minutes have passed, the phone shows disconnected, and then reconnects immediately. By experimenting a bit, I found that when I change the BT visibility, from not visible to visible or vice versa, during those minutes, the phone catches up with the number and dials.
    And yes, my N97 mini is on the latest FW (12.0.110).
    It's a pity that this problem is obviously already so old, that I have little hope Nokia is going to fix it. My old 6600i slide, and my wifes 6131 are working like a charm, unfortunately I need the N97 mini to work for other reasons ...
    Despite I don't know if the N8 would work, it's not an option since it's not supported by PC Suite anymore, thus doesn't synchronize with Lotus Notes, which is what I need at work.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated ... thanks

  • N97 mini battery level drops suddenly

    I've observed my N97 mini's battery level dropping abruptly from 4 bars to 1 bar (with low battery alarm). The phone's slightly more than a month old and using the latest 11.x.x firmware. Did a bit of googling, and found several suggestions on how to save battery (turn off everything 'smart' on ur phone). That's not the point anyways. I need to find out why the battery level drops suddenly (like what happens when ur battery's dying out), and *not* why the battery lasts X hrs. I'm not sure about this, but I think this mostly happens when the battery level is slightly below max, and I use any app that needs the GPS functionality. But then, there doesn't seem to be any problem with the GPS hardware in the phone, 'coz it usually gets a GPS lock in less than a minute (mostly within seconds). Could it be related to the algo used to show the battery level, or is it that its my battery that's faulty? Any others out there having the same problem?

    It's understandable that the batterymeter is not linear (atleast the charge/discharge rates are not). But what bugs me are those sudden erratic drops within minutes (a couple of minutes at times). Anyone who has spent a few days with a dying (rechargeable) battery would know what I'm talking about. It's not a good feeling when u r away from a charge source, and you decide to use one of those power hungry things (like Wifi/GPS) thinking you still have sufficient juice left...and then bam! ... the low battery warning! you just switch off everything, and hope that it lasts till you reach the next oasis. I guess I'd have to analyze this a bit more to understand if its some specific app that causes such behaviour (as mentioned in my original post, i doubt the GPS apps currently). If it happens too often, and even with 'normal' voice+text kind of usage scenarios, its time see Nokia Care I guess. The reason for this post is to know if this behaviour is observed by other N97 mini users as well..then I know there's no point in taking it to Nokia Care.

  • N97 mini: a few questions (touchscreen, battery, k...

    Hi all,
    I have a few questions on the N97 mini I was hoping you guys could help me with:
    touchscreen and navigation arrows: if I choose to, can I avoid to use the touchscreen and resort to the arrows in the keyboard? For example, to navigate in a web page
    battery life: what's your experience so far?
    keyboard: I understand this is very subjective, but how are you finding it? I hate to type on touchscreens. Do you find it convenient or is it annoying to open the sliding keyboard every single time?
    I am considering moving from the E71 to the N97 mini, because an operator has a pretty good deal on it, and because I'd like a bigger keyboard and bigger screen, even though I understand this comes at the price of reduced battery life.

    I have N97 and fully drain it before the end of the day and so have a spare battery, this is not because the phone or battery are bad ! It's because I am constantly using it, I have apps running all the time, watch video every lunch time, browse the web whenever I get a spare 5 minutes, txt and e-mail and even make the occasional call !! Lol
    I have never used a phone as much as this one and was very 'anti touchscreen' before I got it, and only took the chance brcause of physical keypad, but I wouldn't go back, not saying E-series aren't good phones but 'fun factor' on a larger touch screen is massively more. Plus it will still do all the 'normal 'stuff fine. Give it a go

  • N97 Mini Battery

    Hey y'all
    Has anyone else been having battery problems with their N97 mini battery recently.  It started 7 days ago for me. I unplugged my phone mid charge, and noticed that on my phone the battery icon was still moving as if it was charging. I thought it was cute because maybe the atmosphere or my charisma were still charging my phone for me. I restarted my phone and it returned to normal.  The following day my phone did the same thing, only this time I didn’t restart it, but eventually my phone ran out of charge. Since then the battery life on my phone has been very poor, I only get about 8 hours max, and that’s when I have not been on the net or made anything more than one 10 minute phone call.  The battery icon has stopped moving when its unplugged, but the battery life is terrible.
    I have updated my software today so I will monitor it, but seriously is there something up with my battery? It has left me short two days now where I’m in town and my phone has died. I am not happy.
    Any suggestions people?

    My N97 Mini is currently useless as I can't get it charged.
    I have experienced similar problems as have been referred here - and some extra too: E.g. my phone seemed to be able to utilize electricity from the air as the charging lamp was on and the indicators on screen were animated even though the USB cable was off!
    Using the USB port in my laptop was soon not possible either. 'Power Surge On Hub Port. A USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port.' was the only result in any of the three ports.
    Anyway I managed to deal with the problem until one day it refused to charge altogether.
    I took it for repair and they said they re-fused something (but were not very convinced that it solved the actual problem and instructed that if the problems remain I should take it back and they'd send it to a central repair shop (or something like that). The charging could be done although by keeping the cable in a certain position etc.
    But now it seems to be time to send it for real repair or replacement.
    Now it just looks like charging, then shuts down after a while, restarts charging, shuts down, (this forever) without ever reaching enough power to get to point to give the PIN.
    Before taking it to repair i was just wondering if this is actually a battery problem, not charging related as such. ---> Has anyone experience of having this solved simply by using a new battery?

  • N97 mini. Battery prob

    Hi all. 
    First i want to know the latest firmware for n97 mini. In ma phone it shows 11.0.045*. But when i ho n search on site for updates this is the line "Latest software release for Nokia N97 Mini is 12.0.110 *". When i updated using ma pc through nokia software updater i got this version as latest  "11.0.045*". The reason y i want to do update is.
    The problem is when ever i make a call or recieve a call the battery goes down to single point n the mobile shows the battery low msg n shuts off. Its real pain in **bleep**. It works fine when not making or recieving calls. To my surprise i have observed tht the battery runs out immediately when using idea sim, drains lil slow with airtel, vodafone and satys for 24 hrs with docomo sim inside. Can any one let me know atleast wat is the problem.
    Thanks n regards.
    Adeeb

    There are rumours that V12 for the N97 mini is imminent now that V22 has been released for the N97. However, I have not seen it yet and even if it is released today, it may be weeks and even months before all product codes gets it.
    I have commented on your other issues in another post.

  • N97 mini battery getting hot without any usage

    I have been using N97 mini since more than a year now. Till yesterday it was functioning OK but today after full recharge it battery got drained in 5 hours without any usage !! I noticed the phone is getting too hot without any usage. I recharged it againg and same thing happened again. I tried to switch if off for few hours and took out the battery from phone but it didn't help. I am using latest firmware. Did someone had similar issue ? How it got resolved ? Any other ideas ? Please help.

    It's unlikely the phone would heat up with 'nothing ' running, usually they get warm with processor hungry apps like Video, music player or Navigation running ! If you haven't installed anything new lately, that may be running in the background, try the demo version of RamBlow, it will show whatever is running on the phone and 'kill' everything if required. If nothing is running, try another battery, or visit a Nokia Care point .
    Good Luck

    I do not understand what "My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min." means.
    Also % battery is not accurate for an iPod. It fluctuates.

  • N97 Mini - Phone Data Lost when Lock Code is chang...

    Hi,
    I have changed the 'Lock Code' of my N97 mini under Settings>Phone>Phone Management> Security Settings> Phone and SIM Card> Lock Code. And to my surprise, after I changed the Lock Code, I found that all my contacts, messages and notes are lost. But Photos/Videos/Recorded files are available. I have tried all the ways but could not see the contacts/messages/notes/calendar entries. Unfortunately I donot have a back up of the data. Is there a way to restore the contacts/messages/notes on the phone?

    That won't work... reason being is you need the following requirements for the iPhone 4.
    Mac system requirements
    Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
    Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    iTunes 10.1 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    iTunes Store account
    Internet access
    Windows system requirements
    PC with USB 2.0 port
    Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later

    Hi, I have an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.0.4 and the phone keeps going of whenver battery level drops to 20% and it give the warning. It turns off immediately after I dismiss the warning message. I LOCKED THE PHONE AT 21% and I was able to play music to 4% which means there is no problem with the battery, this seems to be a programming error.
    Earlier suggestion include that the battery has a dead cell but it wouldnt keep playing music for over 2 hours it it had a dead cell.

    My issue with IOS 7.1 and higher is my Bluetooth for the phone still works...no problem but the music does not work with bluetooth...I have an Acura TSX 2010...Acura said there are no incidents reported, but me...I just upgraded to IPhone 6 and still no good....as soon as i hit the AUX button it say USB...not bluetooth...ugh

  • HT1766 phone cannot use once battery level reduced to 30%

    Once the battery level becomes 30% phone goes off & cannot be used. Once connected to the charger it starts from 30% to charge.

    The N97 is an old phone now, I'm guessing you've never formatted it?
    After lots of use, installing apps-uninstalling apps, browsing internet etc your phone gets clogged up.
    If you don't want to fully wipe your phone try clearing old text messages, internet cache, call logs and see if that helps.
    I would however recommend a format to "Spring Clean" your phone. Backup all your data using Nokia Suite and pictures, video's etc stored on the internal memory and then type *#7370# code 12345.
    This will wipe all data from the C: drive, contacts, messages, calendar entries etc. next restore your backup and re-install any missing apps.
    Hopefully you should see a massive difference in the speed of your phone after doing this and should also be able to install the app.
    If I have helped you, please hit the star at the bottom of my posts - it's appreciated!

  • N97 mini phone memory

    Hello,
    I have a N97 mini which i like but it started coming up with memory error messages and saying i needed to close applications, also the max amount of text i could have on my phone was 85. i have unistalled most of the pre-installed Apps which has free'd up some memory space on my phone. the memory messages have stopped now but i was wondering if there are any other files i can delete to free up even more space on the phone.
    I currently have 223MB free on my phone. is this a good amount ? or can more be found ?
    thanks

    One problem that I had after phone crashes on the N97 mini was that some of my settings changed causing data to get stored on device memory instead of mass memory.  The two biggest culprits were messaging and podcasting. 
    Check your settings for both of these programs to make sure that they are not saving to device memory. 
    You can also go to settings/phone/application settings and check all of your applications to see what memory they are using. 
    If, like me, you are syncing with an exchange server and have hundreds of contacts, hundreds of calendar entries and thousands of e-mails, it won't take long for your device memory to get maxed out.  That will cause problems running basic tasks.

    i Had a simular issue years ago with my blackberry on ATT.  As it turned out, my SIM had some issues.  I would head over to your carrier and get a free sim replacement.   It could be a phone or SW issue, but the Sim is my first guess give my experience
