New To Nokia And Having Some issues With N79

Hi
I have bought a Nokia for the first time ever and fancied a change from Sony Ericsson due to software issues, however i have been experiencing a few issues with my N79.
When listening to Music in the Music Player and change track, the phone will crash and keep restart it's self, so i tried searching online for the issue and didn't find much help, so i tried doing a Soft Reset wich didn't work.
I then tried a Hard Reset and have noticed some icons are missing and the preinstalled Wallpapers, Ringtones and Videos have been deleted.
I then downloaded and installed Nokia Software Updater and tried re-installing the phones software (wich is 11.049.53.1) thinking i would get back the Wallpapers, Ringtones and Videos ect but that didn't work...
And now the phone has developed another bug... Whenever i use the GPS it asks to go online and i click yes, the phone will just crash and restart and i have to take the battery out to get it to go off.
So far i am NOT very happy with the phone concidering the price i payed for it and having more software issues to deal with...
Any help would be appreciated...

Which map do you mean ??? And will it restore all the preinstalled content ???
Ive only had this phone a week after paying nearly £300 and im having trouble with it already...

How to Connect my N79 through Internet on Laptop?

Hi Friends ,
i am facing a problem while connecting my N79 through Internet on my laptop . i am using USB Modem for Internet Connectivity. And i want to share this Internet on my N79 through Wireless LAN . i am using Windows Vista . Please tell me how to Configure my WLAN on my laptop . so that i can use it to browse through my N79.
Please Help Me Guys .....................!!!!!!

Yes, it can be done.
1) Enable "Internet Connection Sharing" on the laptop and share the connection that refers to your USB modem.
2) Ask your ISP what the IP addresses of their nameservers are and make a note of them.
3) Configure the laptop's wireless adapter in ad-hoc mode and assign it a static address on the wireless network.
4) Configure the N79 in ad-hoc mode as well, and give it a static address on the wireless network. Enter manual settings telling it to use the IP address of the laptop as its default gateway and to use the IP addresses given to you by your ISP as its nameservers.
With this, you can use the laptop as your phone's portal to the Internet, but only with your phone. This will only work with one device at a time. If you want to use more than one device at the same time you're better off buying a real wireless router to which you will be able to connect your laptop, your phone and any other wifi-aware device you might have.
NB: I don't use Windows on my machines and therefore can't give any specific information about doing this. The advanced settings needed for the phone will be described in the manual.

Dear nokia service manager,,
Iam sivakumar using the nokia N79 handset.Iam getting the message like this (Error message :Unable to open .File type not supported)when i was trying to open the video file shooted by some other camera.I have tried changing the format of the file..but no use ..i dont get ant suitable software converter in the internet.So kindly look into this matter as i need this very uregently...
hope its a mandatory feature as laptop and mobile interface are simple task nowadays in mobile...
pls reply me..its very urgent...thanku..

You could try Videora (http://www.videora.com/) - the downside here is that they have specific versions for specific phones, and sometimes it will makea file that plays perfectly in the desired phone but can't be shared to other models. The don't show a version for the N79, but try the N96 one because the N96 is the most similar OS to yours that they offer.

How to format and hard reset N79? *#7370# does onl...

Hi!
I tried to format my Nokia N79 with *#7370# but all applications and contacts ect are still there. Is there a way to complettly reset and format the phone?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I did this on my phone and most of the problem was being fixed by doing this, but doing this is just easy crazy.... I still have the phone lock issue.... the nokia says the default phone lock was 12345 unless changed.... My phone lock was never been changed but that 12345 never work.... I had tried this hard reset but phone lock was never been reset....
@gooran - here are the steps with that green button, asterisk, and 3 then power on
1) switch-off your phone
2) press and hold these three buttons: green call key, asterisk(*), the number 3 key (def). Make sure don't let go of these three keys unti you had pressed the power key for seconds
3) your phone may display formatting/deleting, or no display at all, as what haPpened to me, it has no display but others say it would have display....
4) switch-on your phone and you're done!

I locked my N79 files, now I can't find them on ph...

I used Sonica to lock my Images, My Videos, and Videos files on my N79. Then instead of me being able to open them but be asked for a Password, I couldn't find them at all. Then I unlocked them and they were back (I think).
Then I got this Java locker, and locked them. The same problem persisted, Then when I tried unlocking them, but it kept saying something like "Error, file can't be located" or something like that. I uninstalled it but still can't find my files. I can see them fine on the PC but not on the phone itself.
These are the files on my microSD card, so maybe there's a problem with it I can fix? Pictures I newly take appear on the Phone but I can't access those folders via File Manager. Also, 6 images that I moved from the Phone to the microSD card appear as broken images on the Phone, but they can't be found on the Phone images memory via File Manager. Which is odd. I edited the pictures by renaming them via File Manager, as I didn't add ".jpg" they became broken files. When I added ".jpg" they became fine.
All my images, even the newly taken ones, by this I mean after the locking incidence, are perfectly fine and available via my PC. What my aim was was to lock my Photos with a code. That's failed as my Pictures can still be access via the icon/Gallery, but aren't available through File Manager.
What can I do you fix this so I can access Images, My Videos and Videos, again via File Manager.
Is there an on-board way I can Pin Lock my Files?
Thank you for ready my long post and I hope we'll be able to fix this problem
Solved!

I re-fromatted the card, loosing all my files Stupid me didn't save them on pc. argh! It wasn't much anyway, just sentimental... Anyway, it should be fixed now.

HELP REQUIRED:Want to use my N79 & browse the net ...

I have recently bought an N79. When I connect it to my laptop through the supplied cable the nokia PC suite says that "S60 device connected through a non-compaitble mode". I want to browse the net on my laptop using my cellular provider's GPRS service while connected through the supplied USB cable. Can anyone help?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi there
You need to make sure when you connect the device that it is connected in PC Suite mode. When the cable is plugged in it should ask you which mode you would like to use. If it does not ask you then you need to go to:
Menu>tools>connectivity> USB and select "ask on connection" YES
Once connected in Pc suite mode the necessary drivers will install and you can connect to the net on the computer through the N79-1 using Pc Suite.
Hope this helps

The 'send reset info' only shows if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. If it's not showing then that implies that you haven't got one on your account, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your security questions - in which case see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get the questions reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

Many bugs in N79 Firmware

Hello!
I've many problems with my N79:
Sometimes, when i open the phonebook via shortcut in the standby-screen (i'm using the horizontal standby theme) a screen appears with the title of the phoneboo, but there are no entries or something else - just a cursor (underline) is flashing and i cannot do something. Mostly i close the phonebook application via application manager and then it works mostly. Did somebody of you have the same problem sometimes? Could it be a problem that i have installed the "conversation" application?
Sometimes i have the problem, that when the keys are locked and i try to unlock, nothing visible happens. Then when i look closer, i see, that i can move the focus in the standby screen with the up, down, left and right-key, but i cannot start an application or open the menu with the menu button. Also the display-light is not activated, but the key-lock is removed. Someway i opened the call-history, but i couldn't do something there. The only thing i could do to work again with my phone is to remove the battery and restart the phone.
The third problem is have is, that sometimes when i wrote a short message and i want to send it, the phones means, that the message-editor is already in use. When i then want to close the editor i started (where i wrote my message) und save the message as a draft, the phone keeps in the saving-animation, but never ends. I can then kill the message-editor via application manager. When i then open the draft-overview, i can see the draft with a preview of the message i wrote and the receiver. When i open the draft itself, the message and the receiver are empty! As workaround i copy the message to clipboard before i close the message editor and then paste it into a new message when i start the new message editor, but this problem is really annoying!
Does somebody of you have the same problems or could somebody help me fixing them or will these problems be fixed in the next firmware?
I'm using the latest firmware "11.049.53.1"
PS: Sorry for my bad english...

Feels like a software issue to me if you ask me. How about doing a backup of all your data to the memory card, do a hard format since you're already on the latest software already like you've said and then use the phone without restoring the data back first to see if the issue are occuring or not. If not, you might want to restore those data back but upon restoration if the issue exist shortly, it could mean your data are causing this to happen. You may be asking what kind of data but it's pretty hard to narrow down to be honest.

Image size/quality on N79 gallery: thumbnails only...

On my N79, if I use the gallery to browse through my pictures, it shows thumbnails correctly, but if I try to view an image at full-screen, or zoom in on it, all I get is the thumbnail-sized image! Should I be waiting for images to buffer or is this something else that will have to wait for the next Software Update.
(Images are being saved at the correct size, they look fine on my computer or in the camera app.)

Turns out I just had to wait a moment or two longer, it works fine.

Problem with N79 typing

hey! it hasn't been a month since i got it, but i have a huge problem with my N79. when i type an SMS, it hangs after typing a few characters and all i could do is restart the phone. but once i do restart it and start typing another SMS, it hangs again. it's really irritating! i can't use it to sent texts anymore. the number '2' usually appears before it hangs, even if i'm not pressing on number '2' on the keypad. i tried bringing it to a shop to get it reformatted, but the problem came back after 4 days. i tried reformatting it myself, but it didn't work. help me, please!

rick is right check for the latest firmware if you have not done so already. you can do so by FOTA in your apps or menu (software checker or device manager - tool and utilities section)
or you can go connect your phone via usb and use NSU to search for the latest firmware for your phone.
here are some other things you can do. make sure you back up all your data.
*#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.
*#7370# - Reformat your phone
This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working. Turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button.
re-flash - 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.
If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service.

N79 camera

I've bought a Nokia N79 10 days ago and I have a problem with my camera. I can't find it of high resolution and it seems like it's 2 megapixels not 5 megapixels
When I capture the image immediately with one click, the image seems to be blurred (especially when I photograph texts)
To make it capture the image properly with clear text, I should keep pressing the camera button till I see the green brackets then take the photo.
Is that normal or a problem?? knowing that nokia E71 camera is completely different with clear image although it's 3.2 MP.
The same thing happens when I capture anything(especially text as well)on video.
Please I need a quick answer because I need to know if this phone is defective.
Thank you and sorry for prolongation.

You'll need to focus before taking pictures, that's what the green brackets show. The E71 had some sort of fixed-focus mode by default, and only focussed if you used the "T" key. In both cases an unfocussed picture should focus at infinity, meaning it's okay for taking pictures of distant objects, but not for anything within a few metres.
As far as video goes, most Nokia handsets currently focus at infinity for video, meaning that the subjects are blurred. The only currently-manufactured model which focusses nearby is the N86, which focusses at about two metres. Older handsets such as the N82 and N95/8GB also do this.

Turning off Camera sounds on N79

Is there anyway to turn off the click sound on the N79? I have turned the warnings sounds off... actually it makes a sound even in the silent mode.
Also, is there anyway to make the power saving setting last? The time display thing? It lasts for like a second after my screen goes blank

In some areas, camera-phones must make a sound by law so that it's impossible to photograph people without their knowing. This must be the case for you.
Not sure about the power saver.
