Where are you trying it? Because it does not work in all menus. Try the Media Menu. If it does not work there, then it's not good...

  • N81 Broken Navi wheel

    i've had my N81 for 3 months and i can now say that my Navi wheel scroll function now is completely dead. It is close to impossible to even go up or down in any music/gallery list on the phone with the scroll function this phone is supposed to have.
    It seems like a function that i wanted and paid for is now gone.
    what should i do? (i have updated to the latest firmware in belive that it would solve this problem, but no)

  • Nokia n79 navi-wheel problem.

    my nokia n79's navi wheel isnot working. its on from setting, navi light is glowing around center button but navi wheel is not give any response. my software version is 32.001, its a t-mobile unlocked fone.  

    Here are a couple of things to try (in this order):
    Turn off phone, remove battery for 5 seconds, replace, turn on phone.
    Adjust naviwheel setting to OFF, leave Settings application (return to standby), then open up Settings once more on turn naviwheel back on.
    The naviwheel, as you might know, does not work across all applications; nor does it work beyond a certain "depth" of menus.  You should test it at the "root" (first) level of the Menu application.  If it doesn't work there, perhaps you need to back up your settings and data and reinstall your phone software.  But first: do you have any applications which allow for key shortcuts or special key mappings?  There could be a conflict there.
    Finally, there have been problems with an electrical component behind the naviwheel, but this is more commonly associated with a general keyboard lockup.
    Good luck, and maybe someone else will have some additional suggestions...

  • N81 8gb Software Update problems (bad!)

    hi i have an N81 8gb phone, great phone but now, its as good as a paper weight, heres whats goin on, the 1st time i updated the software everything was fine and the update went smooth after a few months of use and heavy download (i mean 8GB! a lot of **bleep**) i decided to reinstall the software and start clean slate, so midway into the update the phone just froze and the status bar wasnt moving, and i thought to myself 11 mins seems forever, scary! after an hour i decided to just push some buttons just maybe to "wake up " the phone, but to no avail, man, i was like ok, so i pulled the plug and took out the battery and when i restarted my computer and clicked on the update program, it said i have to reinstall the SOftware and what not. but the problem is everytime it reaches 11 mins left it would spit out an error message saying phone connection lost, then i would have to do it again, after 5 days of trying to update, still the same. 11 mins to me now is a nightmare. PLease help or advise,

    hi,
    can you try this:
    1) Remove the battery, and then wait for about 20 min or so before putting it back
    2) Press and hold these three keys together -Green dial key, Star key[*], Three key [3]
    3) switch ON the phone.
    4) Do not let go the three keys until you see the WELCOME screen displayed and just let it complete the boot process
    if that doesnt help you at all, you better run to the nearest nokia care point

  • N81, Flashing navi wheel

    The lights around the navi wheel flash every couple of seconds, and i cant get it to stop. I dont now ether this is a permanent feature on the phone but its damn sure annoying when im trying to sleep. Also, there is always a refresh symbol above the music player on the menu, and i cant get rid of that either

    The flashing navi wheel is om by default...and it can't be switched....I think you should put the phone somewhere were you can't see it...no need to see it while you are sleeping I guess!! As regards the music player symbol (blue circle I guess)..that is not a refresh icon...that shows you that the application is running...the music player is always running in the background by default...

  • N81 8GB MAIN MENU PROBLEM!!! HELP PLS!!!!

    I've had the nokia n81 8gb for 1year + now and just last night after transferring data from my computer the main menu got all messed up, all the folders were gone and the applications were all over the place on the main menu, the only folders left is this "Demo" folder and the "Tools" folder.
    Pls help me fix this
    Thanks in advance

    Try these steps one by one:
    1. Take out your battery and SIM after turning off your device. Put everything back in after 5- 10 minutes and turn on the phone.
    2. Restore Factory settings: Type *#7780# at the standby screen.
    3. Format phone memory (WARNING: This might result in loss of data in the phone memory, so back up the contents in your phone memory using PC Suite before you proceed): Type *#7370# at the standby screen.
    Note that the default lock code for Steps 2 and 3 is 12345 unless you've changed it at any point.
    Hope this helps. Good luck

  • N81 8GB - Home Media problem

    Hi
    I'm having some problems with the home media function in N81.
    When I access Home Media, the phone just keeps searching for media servers and can't find any of them.
    I know the problem isn't in the media servers (I have a winamp media server and a wmp 11 media server), because it used to work fine and I can still access both of them through my ps3.
    I don't think the problem is in the router, because my ps3 is also connected through wlan.
    I have tried reseting the original settings on the phone and reconfiguring the connection, but it stays the same.
    Any ideas?

    Where are you trying it? Because it does not work in all menus. Try the Media Menu. If it does not work there, then it's not good...

  • Nokia N81 8gb boot up problem

    I need help to get my phone working again. I was listening to music and as i skipped a track the phone froze up, so i tried turning it off but the screen just went black. So i took the battery of to try and restart it but it just lights up and display the nokia logo and stops there. its just freeze at the logo. So any help will be great

    Possibly in the hardware (a battery or a capacitor of some sort, that keeps the clock in time, or something related to that circuitry, is broken). A Nokia repair center should be able to fix it.

  • How to delete a corrupt software from your N81 8GB

    Hello all.
    I'm new to this and i was just wondering if anyone could help me.
    I need to delete or remove a corrupt software on my N81 8GB.
    The problem is that nothing is working and i don't want to format my mass memory.
    Though if formatting is my only resort how can i back up my mass memory and keep my data safe?
    Any other way to remove it?
    Anything is appreciated
    Thanks in advance

    Download Nokia PCSuite 7.1.18.0 and Nokia Software Updater 1.4.85 from Nokia site, then install NPCS first. Connect phone. Then NSU. After that make a memory backup, first on your memory card, next by Content copier from NPCS. After this Open NSU and follow commands.
    But after backup memory you can try to soft reset by dialing *#7370# this reformat your phone and restor software as from factory, but with latest software, if you updated.

  • N81 8GB Phone memory is not available !!!

    I am using N81 8GB. So far I know brand new N81 8GB has 16MB of free internal memory and somewhat 8GB of free external memory (where internal memory in the phone memory and external memory is the memory card.
    Last three months it was asking me “Phone Memory” is out of space whereas I used only 2GB out of 8GB mass memory.  I installed everything in Mass memories. Recently it was asking me , Phone memory is not available. I used “OVI suite” with  cable and found 24MB already used 0(zero) space available. Then I deleted all programme, music, video and  and others from “Mass memory”  and formatted it. Even deleted everything except default program. Then I flashed the Mobile from OVI update suite. Version has changed but found 21MB is occupied out of 24MB. Now tell me what’s the solution to free the spaces?
    I can’t receive more than 3 or 4 music (small) files via Bluetooth. It asks me to free the inbox space. So far I had total 10 text message (SMS) in inbox. Why it should ask me whereas I have enough memory( 6GB) in “Mass Memory” ?
    Is there any solution?

  • Navi-wheel in n81 8gig

    Will the navi wheel be implemented in all the menus in future updates?

    Well i've had the same problems with my nokia n85 the navi wheel wasn't working. I opened my phone to check the where is the problem and there was a problem with a cable that connects to the chip.I needed to order a new one. Well nokia tries to make the phone as cheap as posible and all the wires a like papper. The only thing that you can do is order new vires from ebay or anny other website or just bring your phone to repair. I paid 20 Eur for the new one and it works now. Ofcourse be carefull if you'll do that your self.

  • N81 8gb problem : white screen

    when updating google earth application by net my N81 8GB had problem : when i start it, after nokia logo is shown, the screen become white and nothing else!!!!!
    please help me

    Try a hard reset.
    Hard reset. Turn off the phone. Press and hold three keys together, the green key, the '*' key and the number '3'.Then, turn on the phone and don't let the three keys before you see the Nokia hands logo.
    For 5800 XM hard reset need different keys. The green key, the red key and the camera button. The process is the same.Warning!Hard reset deletes all your phone's data!

  • Nokia N81(8GB) Alarm Problem

    Hi all,
    I have recently updated my N81(8GB) to the latest firmware version i.e. V 21.0.008 and alongwith other minor issues I am facing a rather annoying problem. The problem is that when I set an alarm and turn off the mobile the Alarm sounds at that particular time but when I choose the option snooze it wont sound after the snooze period is over It'll only sound again when I Switch the mobile on. I just wanted to know whether this is happening with every other person who updated their N81 to this firmware version or is this glitch unique to me. Eagerly waiting for reply as the Alarm functionality is a commonly used feature and it should not go wrong.
    Regards,
    Umair

    Hi again!
    I found a way to make my 6110 Navigator (S60 3rd) change the date on weekend also i use alarm on workday!!!
    Let it not call a fix let it call a trick to manage this s60 3rd prob.
    On the 6110 you can set more then one alarm...
    I use one alarm on workday - wake me up at 6.45 in the morning on workay.
    I programmed a second alarm for EVERY DAY (7 a week ) starting at 8.00 in the evening (cause this is a time the alarm doesnt disturb me).
    Cause of the second alarm / since i set it - the date change works absolutely reliable.
    Hope i could help out.

  • N81 8gb music problem

    hey guys! i have an n81 8gb and is less than a month old..
    my problem is, my music player hangs after quite sometime of playing songs.. after 10-15 mins,, the song will just suddenly stop,, and my phone hangs after that.. i thought of having my phone memory reformatted,, i did.. then after a while, i thought my problem was already resolved. but to my surprise, after, i think, more or less half an hour or so, i was faced with the same problem again. the music suddenly stops, and my phone hung and after few minutes,, it will automatically restart.
    please help me out, i already installed the latest firmware here in my phone,, v 11.0.045 couple of days before the first hang up happened. hours before i experienced this music stopping, my phone incidentally dropped, so i dont know if that is the reason.. if that is, then why is it that my music player is the only one having a problem? i also thought that it could be another application installed in my phone,, but i already reformatted it and uninstalled the applications i installed before this happened.
    i hope someone will reply and help me out with this.. thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I had other problems when i upgraded the firmware, the phone's keypad wouldn't lock when slid down, the phone doesn't change to the PC suite, data mode, or print mode & all. Its like it got a mind of its own & will work depending on its mood, just 2 days back my phone suddenly started working fine. i had installed lots of 3rd party application on it but i am sure that the problem have started only after i have upgraded my phone with the new firmware, because the problem only started after the upgrade.
    This wasn't the 1st, i had 5300 previously which also stared acting weirdly after the firmware upgrade (the mini USB spotted working after the phone's restarted on completion of the upgrade). When I took it to the Nokia service station they kept it with them for 1 month & later replicated it with a new one after writing serval mails & Branch Managers for weeks.
    That was one of the most worst experience i had with Nokia ever.
    I think its best to leave the phone with the firmware it comes with.
    I spoke to the Nokia Support here in India & all they had to say is that they are sorry if the phone has gone bad due to the firmware upgrade.
