N79 FM Transmitter

Hello all , I wish to know whether the FM tranmitter of N79 is stereo.
I tried to play audio files from music player with fm transmitter on. But i get on mono downmix audio in fm receiver, though the same audio file play as stereo in music player.
I m not sure if hardware is not capable to transmitting stereo or signal is weak.
Please gurus brief me on this. Also is there any way to boost the n79 fm tranmitter signal strength?

FM tranmitter of N79 is stereo. but it depends on Radio station that you are listing to.
sorry there is no way to boost FM tranmitter signal strength.
Glad to help

N79 FM Transmitter Application problem

Hi!
Well I buy my N79 last month after purchasing this cell I update the fireware, every thing was working fine but 2 days ago when I tried to use FM Transmitter I found its not working.
Whenever I click on FM Transmitter a message pops in say " Activate FM transmitter? " but it can't open the application after click on YES. I restore my cell to factory default but still same problem. I don't have any idea it is a bug or something else. Please help me.
Regards.

Hay Guys are you talking this 32,001,53,1 version for N97? I am in India and OVI suite still shows me 20v.
Anyways about FM Transmitter.
1. Check whether your country allows FM transmitter.
2. Select a FM range where other service providers are not available.
3. Keep phone below 2mtr range from the receiver.
4. Do connect any wire headset or bluetooth headset.
5. Turn on receiver and match the frequency.
6. Now press play button in phone's music player.
7. Increase volume in your receiver.

Nokia N79 FM Transmitter Problem

Hi guys,
I'm from India and purchased an N79 about 6 months back.
I have updated my firmware to the latest 32.001.
However I seem to have a problem with the transmission of the FM Transmitter.
Earlier in firmware versions 11.XXX and 20.XXX the signal from the FM Transmitter used to be very clear, and the output from the speakers very neat. Almost as good as the car music system. However with the update in firmware, the signal is really low and there is a lot of disturbance when I'm transmitting. I tried to use different frequencies to transmit, but the result is the same. Kindly help me guys. I really love this phone and this application. Hope to get a solution soon.
Thanks and Regards.

Hey guys please respond..

Nokia N79 FM transmitter repair

Hi there.
Few days ago I changed full cover of my N79.
I accidentally lost a small thingy that connects 4 pins at the back cover of phone to the motherboard.
After loosing that detail, FM transmitter stopped working.
My question would be if there is a place on web where I could order and by that detail. I've searched eBay and Google and only solution I found is to by middle cover that costs approximately 40 pounds but I need only one small detail.

Hi krapiks,
Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
We cannot allow discussions on self-repair on the forum because once you open the device yourself you may cause further damage to the device (as seems to be the case) and void any existing warranty. This is also stated in the forum guidelines.
So, we would advise you to visit your local Nokia Care Point and let them have a look. They should be able to help you with hardware related issues.
Let us know how you get on,

There are some countries where law does not permit the use of personal FM transmitters. They only became legal here in the UK a few years ago...

I Bay now phone Nokia N79. The phone is great but application "FM Transmitter" is deleted.So how to back FM Transmitter in my phone.If someone now please help me.

N79 freezes when using Music Player!!Also the real...

I have recently purchased N79. I have problem with my music player. Forwarding song or going to the next track freezes the phone. This problem was there from the first iteself. So thought upgdrading the firmware would solve this problem, but it had become worst started freezing and had to remove the battery. So formatted my phone to fix the problem. Now everything is normal except the music player problem which is irritating. This problem mostly occurs when I use FM transmitter for listening songs. And also the real player dosn't play video show blank sreeen sometimes.
Does the preloaded files are creating problem or the memory card is faulty needs to formatted. Its 4 GB card enough free space available.
Can you tell me after formatting the phone I lost licence for preloaded audio and video files in my memory card. Also few applications as i didn't backup. Is there any way atleast to get licence back or do I have to delete locked items.
How ofter Nokia releases firmware update. There is no update available rite now.

Yes, I'm currently experiencing the same problem as yours with the real player. The video shows blank when playing videos, you can only hear the audio.
We'll wait for the firmware update soon.
Cheers!

Can't use my FM Transmitter

Hiya.
I live in the U.K and I recently bought a N79 from Hong Kong. The problem I am having is that I can't use the FM transmitter so that I can listen to music in my car. I'm totally stuck and appreciate it if you all could help me.

FM transmitter operation is restricted in some countries, so this may be the case for Hong Kong. if you bought the phone in HK, then the firmware may have restricted the use of the FM transmitter, there are workarounds for this but they are not legal and not able to be discussed here on the boards (i.e. look around on the internet for it).
come to think of it, another suggestion would be to take your phone to your local Nokia Care Centre and ask if they can flash your phone with a generic firmware for Euro region or UK, whichever is appropriate and available. that would be legal i guess if they performed it.

N78 VOIP and FM Transmitter

Hello, so the FW 20,149 works quite well so far.
I think it's from nokia cheek, until the phone works quite 5 FW update had to be made.
The next is why there is still no Voip client for the N78? N79 has it too!
Why has the FM transmitter for Internet radio off the N79 is with the FW 11.xx but still?
Nokia Integrates So these two things into the N78/N96 and still does not bring any new phones 14 days on the market but eliminated the first error in their recently published yet. would be stupid if not more a nokia or wants?

The Nokia CA-300 FM transmitter will allow FM rebroadcast in vehicles. It requires a 12V power source so unless you have one at hand in the home it will not be practical for sending it over the home sound system. It works with both 2.5mm and 3.5mm AV ports and it will charge your battery while it is at it! It is listed as a compatible accessory for the N78 so it should not impact warranty to use it.
The following countries have accepted the certification under the R&TTE directive: Denmark, the Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Portugal, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and Estonia.
Specifications: 12 VDC car lighter socket power input
Current consumption (FM): less than 20mA
Charging current: max. 809mA at 5 volts
Retractable cable: 1 meter
FM transmission frequency: by +/- keys with LCD display and backlight

Signal to noise ratio: more than 60db (typically 68dB)

N79 FM Radio

HI
I have acquired an n79 in very good condition & with only 15 hours on the life timer.
All seems to work OK apart from the FM radio (receiver) which I cannot make work,
If I select visual radio with the headset connected, then try to tune, the tuning symbols just goes round constantly.
I have an n85 which works ok so I know what should happen.
FM transmitter works OK, and I have reinstalled the phone software.
I have also seen the same on another N79 which I had for a while.
I have found other similar posts but with no real answer.
Is this a problem with the model?
Can anyone help?

Have you tried manually entering a known radio frequency:
Options --> Manual Tuning
If you are able to save a number of known frequencies to your list of stations, you could avoid having to deal with a repair service.
On my N79, if there are no stations in an area that are strong enough to be recognized by the tuner, the scan will just go around and around endlessly. The device is not really optimized to be an FM radio, so if you live in a place with few strong stations, that might be the case for you as well. Perhaps the n85 has a better tuner.

N79 Comments

Hi all,
This is my first post here. I got an N79 for my birthday about 2 weeks ago, and I've gotta say; I'm loving it! The best bits I've found are the FM transmitter, the internet browser, Sports Tracker, and the fact that it is a nice size, and very lightweight!
Since using it for the last few weeks, I've found a few things that can probably be changed via a firmware update, that I would really appreciate.
First off - a few questions
-Where is 'push to talk'? Most websites list it in the spec, but I can't find it on the phone, or in the manual. Has this been removed prior to release?
-When will the next firmware update be? Are they fairly regular, or few and far between?
On the buggy/additional features side of things:
- The Music Player does not close via the 'Open applications' menu. Pressing the 'c' button does nothing.
Mobbler v0.04(5) and Sports Tracker v2.06 don't close either, but pressing 'c' brings up the 'Do you want to close this' box - Pressing yes just doesn't work.
- The FM Transmitter should turn off when music player is closed, if it was started from within the Music Player menu. Starting it from the apps menu should keep it on until it is specifically closed. Perhaps? Just a thought...
- I'd like to be able to edit the standby screen a bit more. Specifically; With the horizontal icon bar: I want to be able to remove the "Search content" and 'Share Online' items. I will never use these, and I'd prefer to be able to remove them.
With the vertical icon bar; I'd like to be able to change the default icons in the bar itself. I don't use the Radio, and I'd rather have the Web application on there, instead of Search.
It seems strange that so much of the phone is customisable (menu's etc), but the standby (and most commonly seen) screen is not.
- Lastly, I'd like to be able to delete the default bookmarks folders. ie. Web feeds, Saved Pages, Download Sounds etc. Or, at least be able to group them into a single folder, to hide them.
Do any of the software dev's come on here, or is there another way to get suggestions and requests to them?
Sorry for the long post, I've been saving these up for a while
Edit; by the way, I'm running 11.049 RM-348

Well I have used my N79 now for 6 months.
- Don't know about Push to Talk. Maybe Nokia has failed with it.
- Well if phone sales very much (like N95) FW updates will be pretty regurarly, but I think N79 is not very common and there maybe will be like 2 or 3 updates wich hopefully fix bugs and make phone faster and more stable. Next update may come tomorrow or someday in future.. : S ( N96 had it last update like 6 months ago and it is pretty buggy (I have read allaboutsymbian.com))
- I have noticed that music player can't be shutdown thing too
- No comment to Mobler or Sport tracker thing
- Agree with your FM transmitter idea!! It sounds great!
- Well you can modify those small icon shortcuts trought: tools --> settings -->general --> personalisation --> stanbymode --> shortcuts.
Online share you can take away from there by updating Share online to version 4.3 and and there is option to take it away from stanby mode.
- I agree with deleting those stupid folders from my web browser.
Hope this help to something and at least wake up some Nokia developers to do something. Also you should go check That N79 FW 11.049 bug thread and submit your bugs there.
And what comes to Nokia's web browser, it is very slow to use when comparing to iPhones Safari, wich realy is fast to use.
Me, Mac and my misengineered N97

My Bluetooth USB wireless transmitter for my portable speakers has quit working. Preferences says, "The selected device has no output controls", it used to work just fine. Can anybody help?

My Bluetooth USB wireless transmitter for my portable BT speakers has quit working. Preferences says, "The selected device has no output controls", it used to work just fine. The internal and a pair of wired external speakers work fine. Can anybody help?

Just tested something and it worked.
If I put the headphones all the way in, the mac recognizes it as a digital output.
But if i don't put it all the way in, it recognizes it as headphones and works perfectly.
It's probably this crappy headphones.
If anyone has the same problem, try this out.

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...
