N78 - Software bugs ?

Sent my N78 to the service centre located at the east on 25/9/2008..and it is still with them! No solution I guess?
It has been a disappointing and frustrating experience since I bought the N78 two months ago. It was working fine until I upgraded the firmware. So I sent it to two of the service centers located at the east and north. Each time it came back with the same problems: Video playing and photo slide show.
Video playing: Video clip can only play once. When I play it the second time, it has only the audio but no video!
Slide show: While running the photo slide show with MP3 music playing, there is no control over the music volume. Worst still, it continues to play the music even when I ended the slide show! Both service centers had upgraded the firmware and the problems still remain the same. They even sent it to Nokia HQ for further diagnosis but only came back with nothing solved!
I suggested to them to test on a new phone set but only to be told that they do not have a new one for testing??

Hello vikiz, maybe we have some set-backs in language for my mother language is Chinese or even Cantonese.Well, i meant when you want to connect your phone to you PC, you have to use the Data line right?Ok now, just confirm what you are doing:
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
1,there are two ends on the USB data line,One is connected to the phone,and it's the only port on the phone.
2,the other end of the data line should be connect to the computer USB PORT,right?That's the problem.
=====On you PC, there several USB PORT, DO NOT select the USB ports in front of your computer,try to use the USB port that is located directly on you Mainboard of PC,because if you use front USB PORT, it will cause the lack of power which due to the failure of connection.===================
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
OK, this might help to your first question.
And you said"The music player sometimes hangs and the phone will restart at times.",
Might be is because of your Media Data Base Files are broken,check if you can reflash your Music Library.BUT!if not , you can try to do this:
USE the "MASS STORAGE MODE"to connect your phone to the computer,then use the explorer to find this directory:
[MEMORYCARD]:\Private\10281e17,you will see“[101ffc31]mpxv2_2.db”and “[101ffc31]pcv6_1.db”this two files.
Delete them both,then reflash the Music Library.
HOPE it helps
Buy it,use it, play it,upgrade it......The phone is yours!

  • Software bug in OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (IOS)

    I found a software bug in OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (iOS) and is related to the space characters inside the logon name. I am using SharePoint 2013 (15.0.4617.1000 June 2014 CU) and my setup
    corresponds with the OneDrive for Business App requirements.
    I am not able to connect using OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (iOS) to the SharePoint 2013 OneDrive personal site if the logon name has space characters in it. With the same user account, but this time with the logon name changed (removed all
    the space characters) the authentication works and I am able to configure the app (OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 - iOS).
    I wrote more details here
    http://www.vioreliftode.com/index.php/software-bug-in-onedrive-for-business-1-2-2-ios/.
    Any other of you in the same situation? 

    Hi,
    I understand that the issue occurred in OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (iOS).
    If this is a suspicious bug, I recommend you to open a ticket with Microsoft.
    In the meanwhile, you can post the thread at the OneDrive support forum:

  • Photoshop Elements 11- Create and save multiple page PDF's?  Software bug or new limitation?

    I just upgraded from Photoshop Elements 10 to Photoshop Elements 11.  One of the reasons I stayed with Adobe rather than Corel was the ability to work with multipage PDF's.
    I noticed that I can't add more than one page to a project and save a multiple page PDF.  I can open a multiple page PDF, but not create or save one.
    Is this a new limitation, or just a software bug Adobe plans to fix?
    Has anyone found a way to work with multiple page PDF's in Photoshop Elements 11?

    It's a new limitation in PSE 11, for one of those mysterious adobe reasons.

  • Ios 6 software bug causes icloud backup to fail

    When I try to backup my ipad 2 and iphone 5 either manually or automatically when plugged and connected to wifi it says last back up could not be completed. I know it's a software bug because the icloud backup was working before I updated to ios 6 and now that I've updated to ios 6 it fails to backup on icloud plus I have 15GB icloud storage and it still won't back up. Also it's not a corrupted app because i turned all apps off the backup still doesnt work. Has anyone else experienced this after updating to ios 6.

    If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test:   Go to...
    Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options.  Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup.  If that doesn't work, then this post will not help.  If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup.  If successful, keep repeating these steps.  If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail.  (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
    This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

  • How can iOS5 be a software bug and only effect some iPhones?

    How can IOS 5 be a software bug and not effect every device running that firmware? Could it be a hardware issue? Has anyone noticed in Settings>About>Diagnostics there are loads more logs about crashing/low memory/ and many others since IOS5?

    It probably has something to do with settings.  I haven't had any battery drain issue on my 4S (which started out with settings I restored from a backup of my iPhone 3G), but I had extremely rapid drain on my iPad 1 when I upgraded to iOS 5.  I figured out quite quickly that it was the auto time zone support, and turning it off made things basically perfect again.  I suspect it might be because I was previously using iOS4 on the iPad, and some setting or something was creating the problem, which was absent on the iPhone. 
    Of course, that's pure speculation— if Apple has it figured out, they could choose to transparently explain what exactly the bug was (though I suspect we won't get any details like that)

  • Software bug or !!

    Hi Every one ..
    I have a couple of 3750 switch, that are running 12.2(20)SE3, and I'm trying to use the command
    Switch01#show idprom interface Gi2/0/7
    ^
    % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
    Switch01#show idprom ?
    interface Specify an interface for idprom display
    Switch01#show idprom interface ?
    % Unrecognized command
    Any one know if this is a software bug, or a feature that is not supportet ind 12.2(20)SE3, the command is working on 12.1(14)EA1
    Thanks in advance
    Peter

    It does look like a bug(did a quick search but did not find one). I noticed the samething in my lab. But I did see that the command works in 12.2(25)SEC and 12.2(25)SED releases.

  • High pitched static on other end is a software bug that needs to be fixed immediately

    Every once in a while, the callers on the other line start hearing nothing but a high pitched static from me. I have no idea when it happens or what causes it. I can hear the other person just fine but they cannot hear me at all. I find out when the other person keeps saying hello and eventually hangs up. Once it happens, it happens on every call after that. 
    The only thing that fixes it is restarting the phone which is extremely annoying. This is most definitely a software bug and has nothing to do with whether you have good signal or if you use a case or not.
    I tested this with by calling my wife's phone when she was with me after the glitch happened.
    1) I had no case on the phone.
    2) I was getting a perfect signal (also perfect 4g)
    3) Switching to loudspeaker did nothing.
    4) Turning noise reduction on or off did nothing.
    5) muting and unmuting did nothing (except when muted there was obviously no static, but it came back upon unmuting)
    6) Turning wifi on or off did nothing
    7) Turning bluetooth on or off did nothing
    Answering an important call and hearing "hello, hello, hello and click" is the most annoying thing ever. Because then I have to restart my phone which takes quite a while and the other person is repeatedly calling me in the meantime. 
    This needs to be fixed immediately. After all, this device is a phone first. All those smart functions come second. If I can't make or receive calls properly this device has to go.

    Oh no! This definitely can be annoying!!
    We have had others with the Droid Charge call/write in with the same issue. Replacing the phone didn't resolve which also leads me to believe it is a software glitch.
    First, make sure you do have the most recent sofware version vy going to:
    Settings>About Phone>System Updates>Check New    You should currently have i510EE4
    We have let Samsung know that there is an issue with some of the Droid Charge's having a high pitched noise.
    At this time, they are looking into it in order to provide a resolution.

  • 1.9.5 Software Bugs

    1.9.5, build 17.17 was applied to my box this morning.  I now have the following software bugs.
    Some programs are missing program information such as an episode of Homeland on Showtime 865 9:00pm 12/10.  I had previously recorded this episode and remmber seeing episode info.
    Earlier today, stoping a DVR recorded show resulted in going to live TV vs. the program menu to resume, play from the start, delete, save.  This seems to be working now.
    Under manage series recordings, many of my series now show up as manual series vs. having their correct tiltle.  The tilte appears if you go to that manual series.
    A new feature to undelete shows seems to work and is much appreciated.
    Bottom line Verizon, your newest DVR software pales in comparison to my 2001 Sony TiVo.  The Tivo is faster, more user firendly, much more reliable and does more and was built in 2001.  Yes, a 12 year old machine and it's software is better than your current high end box. 
    You should fire whoever tests your software.  There are no reason to have these kinds of software bugs.

    I have a very similar problem with the software upgrade which affects my DVR info.  I too have "Manual Series" listed under the "Manage Series Recordings" section of my DVR for about 10 of the tv shows that I have tagged to be recorded weekly.  In addition, I have lost the ability to actually manage these series in that I cannot change the priority order of their recording preference. 
    I've tried twice to report this problem to VERIZON's technical support staff, but met with indifference in the first attempt (a guy recommended that I replace my DVR with a new one - an utterly ridiculous suggestion), and in my second attempt I got a somewhat helpful lady who couldn't correct this glitch and was unaware of others having same problem but promised to send it up the flagpole to higher level tech folks (best action that I realistically could get). 
    As I told VERIZON's techies, I likely was not the only customer experiencing this same problem - and your posting confirmed my hunch.  I agree, VERIZON leaves a lot to be desired in the pre-testing of their software "upgrades".

  • Nokia 5130 XpressMusic Software Bug

    hi guys
    i have here a nokia 5130 XpressMusic whos version is V7.91

    then the library will update 0 of 1
    here the problem starts for about seconds and minutes the update doesn't move it stucks on 0 of 1 (then i think it has the same problem on my 5610 but on my 5610 it will update if you play MUSICS not records in the gallery then it will update) then i played another record then it updates 0 of 2, 0 of 3 , 0 of 4.
    then i intend to play musics in the music player to knew if the update will be gone

  • Camera Software Bug on Nokia Lumia 810

    In mid-December 2013, following a recent Nokia software update, the camera on my Nokia Lumia 810 now no longer supports the ability to tap the screen in order to take photos or video.
    Instead, I am forced to use the physical camera button which tends to cause slight movement of the phone and blurring of pictures, especially since the 810 lacks the anti-shake feature found in more advanced models.
    I assume this is a software bug because I have searched for a setting that would allow me to re-enable the tap to take pictures capability and have found nothing of the kind.
    Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can fix this? Will Nokia be releasing a software update to address this problem?
    Would appreciate a response soon as one of the best things about this phone has been the camera and right now the camera experience is just awful because of this issue. Several photos from Christmas were ruined by it.
    Please help.
    Eric

    Problem solved ... sort of. After a little further investigation, what I haved learned is this:
    (1) When first opening the camera mode on a Nokia Lumia 810 (running GDR2+Amber), the functionality for immediately taking a picture can only be accomplished by pressing the physical button on the handset. The ability to simply touch the screen (anywhere or even on an icon) to initiate a snapshot is no longer operational.
    (2) Added now appears to be the option to select a lenses, any one of several installed camera capable apps on my phone. Once an app is selected, it is then possible to touch the screen to snap a shot from within these apps.
    So in summary, what was once a two step process to take a picture (i.e., 1. enter camera mode, 2. tap screen to take photo) is now a three step process involving an extra step in the middle to select a lense before tapping the screen and taking the picture.
    I would prefer that the camera would continue to support the previous two step picture taking process, but at least now there does appear to be a way to take photos by tapping the screen in specifc apps, such as Smart Camera, which is important in order to avoid shaking the camera (which can happen when using the physical button).

  • Software bugs No right hand corner charms - Task Bar and Start Menu Properties

    There seems to be a software bug, as you point your mouse at the right hand corner, charms does not show up! The Taskbar and Start Menu Navigation Option "When I point to the upper-right hand corner, show charms" is tick and selected.

    @mrdbeta,
    I had this same issue.  However, the keyboard shortcut for the Charms bar still works, and pressing
    Win key + C opens the Charms bar as expected.  Maybe the mouse peek has been disabled in the Preview, but try the keyboard shortcut. 
    Hope that helps!

  • IOS4 software bug #2 - Joining WIFI networks disables 3G

    I would best explain this software bug as the iPad Wifi issue in reverse! The iPhone 3GS forgets how to reconnect to the 3G network after joining Wi-Fi.
    In my case the 3G issues occur when wifi networks are in range and Ask to Join Networks is set to ON.
    This procedure seems to help me have a fairly reliable 3G reception:
    1) Keep Settings/Wi-Fi/Ask to Join Networks/OFF.
    2) I also found that turning Wi-Fi OFF when leaving my house, seems to reduce 3G issues on the road.
    3) If a 3G issue occurs anyways with the above settings, turning off the phone for a minute will resolve the issue again. Sometimes it may still be necessary to Reset Network Settings
    Regards

    i am having similar probs....
    I am hoping someone here can help me. I'm not a wiz with technology but here goes. I bought my iphone3g a month ago. It never seemed to connect to the wifi i searched on here and someone posted a message about putting a number thread on the dns bit of wi fi details it was fantastic worked great I was very happy. The problem has evolved after 2.0.2 update. Or at least I think that is why it's happened. Now my phone will not connect to my wi fi at home (it's a bt voyager 2500v-3b model). under wi fi settings the voyager is there with a tick next to it.Wi fi is on. In settings-general-network it is there. But my wifi will not work. the signal for it does not show up on my phone. The wifi is working because I'm using right now on my laptop) I've tried turning airplane mode on and off...turning phone on and off...iphone restore...i've tried 'forget this network' and starting again but nothing!! When i use safari it seems to be really slow but thats because the phone is using the (not edge/3g..the other one sorry cant remember its name) network. Is this a 2.0.2 issue? it worked brilliantly before i wish i had never updated new version. PLease if anyone could help me. I loved my i phone before its capabilities were great.. but now it doesn't do what i loved about it.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks from a disheartened iphone lover

  • N78 software update question?

    Hi guys,
    I want to ask you about some misunderstoodment regareding the latest software for this devise.When i go to Nokia and check if there is a new firmware for my N78 by entering product code it says that the firmware version is the same as mu current now (12.046).The thing is that i can see that there is a newer firmware update (20.149) again shown by Nokia in their latest features, applications and improvements page.Why is this occurring?
    P.S.I am not experiencing any problems for now with 12.046 and i like to follow the quote  "If it works,don't fix it" and i am hearing that after this update many users find  more new bugs after that but someday Nokia will release a stable firmware which i will gladly install
    Cheers 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    latest firmware version for the N78 is 21.002 not 20.149. there is also a v30 rumoured to be released in the coming weeks. the reason you are getting the message that 12.046 is the latest version for your handset is because your handset is a branded variant (i.e. your network operator has their customisations, logos, wallpapers etc all over it). therefore you may or may not get the 21.002 update for your phone. this is dependent on your operator, as they are provided the newest firmware by Nokia and are given the choice whether or not to customise it to their own tastes, then allow Nokia to release it through either the Nokia Software Updater or FOTA channels. i would suggest haggling your operator to see if they are indeed planning to release 21.002, or have v30 in the works for you. if not, then you will have to give written permission for you to move to generic firmware, after which you can take your phone to your local Nokia Care Centre and they will do this for you.  let us know how it goes.
    please throw some kudos our way, it would mean a lot to us  
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!
