N86 8MP black mark on images (lens/sensor?)

Hi,
I've had my N86 8MP for a few months and generally love it.
However, it has recently developed a problem with the camera, and as the camera was one of the main reasons I bought this phone I can't put up with it.
As you can see from these photos there is a black mark on all of the images that it makes - always in the same spot, just off centre. It's particularly bad when the flash is used or in low light. This is a new problem, it didn't used to happen - I think there is dust on the lens/sensor.
Does anyone have any comments for the best way to get this fixed? If possible I would like to avoid taking it to Nokia Care as I'm very pushed for time.
Thanks!

Get a lens cleaner, or an LCD cleaning cloth (usually you can buy sets where there are cleaning liquids as well). Try to see if its an external smudge, like a water mark. Wipe the plastic lens. I've had something like this once on the 5800.

N86 8mp video stabilization (bug??)

Dear all,
I recently discoverd that when I'm recording a video on my Nokia n86 with the video stabilization on, that something weird happens.
When I make quick movements to the left and right, while recording, the image is getting deformed. As if the image is ''waving''. Without video stabilization, the image is doesnt wave.
My question: is this a known problem? Does anybody experience the same effect or is my phone flipping?
(ps: just move the phone to the left and right, not up, down, side etc.)

N86 8MP Video Auto Rotate?

When I use Video Mode on my N86 8MP, the image rotates as the camera does, so if I change from horizontal (landscape) orientation to vertical (portrait) orientation, the video ends up being sideways. Is there a setting so when I change the orientation of the camera all I change is capture area?
In Still Image mode you can turn Auto-Rotate On and Off, bt I can't seem to find this setting in Video Mode.

Noel,
Not sure if this is an iphone app problem as my Note 2 auto rotates np at all.
sky twitter account a customer ask why sky go streams are worst then sd and yet bt and eurosports apps stream in hd. Reply from mod, oh thats easy the files for hd are some huge that sky go can't play them and no app can stream hd due to this and so when they say they are they're really sd streams, if there was any way around this we would have done it now.

N86 8MP : How to recover Photos from corrupted E: ...

Hi,
I'm using a N86 8MP which is less than 5 months old. Recently, I have lost all my music files and all the crucial photo images which I have taken between Jan till now and I have not done a backup yet. Somehow this occurs after I have switched the Singapore SIM Card to a China Prepaid Card. Could it be the cause of data losses? Also, not sure if the missing data has anything to do with the corrupted E:Mass Memory which I have just discovered.. Any ideas/advise?
And, may I know, how can I recover all the Photos from the corrupted E:Mass Memory?
Please help. Thanks!

I met this kind of problem before with the corrupted SD card on my Samsung phone but it came out I got nothing from the card as the corrupted card can not be recognised by the computer when connected. So I hope you are lucky. (your card can be detected,)
First, take the card from the phone (powered off) and if it has a "write protect" tab then lock it now. Do not try and write anything to the card or you risk causing more problems. You can either plug in you camera to the PC as it should appear as a “Removable Drive” or put the card in a card reader attached to your PC.
Next, if you are comfortable with using a PC then you can download a photo recovery utility that will recover your photos from the following link:
http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Download (Windows, freeware)
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/photorecovery.html (for Mac OS X shareware)
If such free utilities fail to help, you may rely on some paid photo recovery software. If you search the web for photo recovery software you will find many. One I have tried successfully is Wondershare Photo Recovery 2.1 that used to be bundled with some other products. This program can also recover music and videos. Now you can get it from the link below:

You can try the demo to see what you can recover before buying.
Remember - Do NOT try & write anything back to the card until you can recover your pictures and music to your PC safely! Merry Christmas

Using a script to get the color of a colorized Black & White Bitmap image

I've been running into this wall for quite some time and would greatly appreciate any help that can given for it.
I have an Illustrator script that runs inside of a BridgeTalk session within an InDesign script. Yeah, it's complicated. The upshot is that the Illustrator part opens up an EPS file, looks through all objects on a certain layer in that file, and returns an array of the colors used in it. So, it looks at fill colors, stroke colors, gradient stops, etc. One of the biggest stumbling blocks (next to PlugIn Items, which I'll ask about in a separate post) is getting the color of raster images.
Most raster images, I realize, are going to be CMYK or RGB images, but our company mostly deals with either Grayscale images or Black & White Bitmaps that are embedded in the EPS file. Those two allow the ability to colorize them by simply selecting them and then choosing a color, such as a spot PANTONE color from one of their color books.
Now, I need the script to read the color that the raster image has been colorized with. This works okay for images that have a GrayScale color space, as the script just looks at Colorant[0] of that image. However, I run into a problem with Black & White Bitmap images. Here's a piece of code that I try to make work with an EPS file that has a raster image:
var document = app.activeDocument;
for (var i = 0; i < document.layers[0].pageItems.length; i++) {
          // Stepping through each item on the layer.
          var currentItem = document.layers[0].pageItems[i];
          $.writeln("Current item is " + currentItem.typename);
          $.writeln("Number of channels is " + currentItem.channels);
          $.writeln("Color Space is " + currentItem.imageColorSpace);
          $.writeln("Colorized Grayscale? " + currentItem.colorizedGrayscale);
          $.writeln("Number of Colorants: " + currentItem.colorants.length);
          for (var j = 0; j < currentItem.colorants.length; j++)
                    $.writeln("Colorant number " + j + " is " + currentItem.colorants[j]);
          $.writeln("Its parent is " + currentItem.parent);
          $.writeln("Parent's typename is " + currentItem.parent.typename);
This code runs successfully on an Illustrator file that has a Black & White Bitmap image on the top layer, but if you try and run it, you'll see the problem: Even if you've colorized your Bitmap image with a PANTONE spot color (and the script even returns "true" on the line "Colorized Grayscale?"), Colorant number 0 is "Gray". It should be the spot color assigned, not "Gray".
Can anyone please help me figure out how to get the script to recognize the actual colorant of a Black & White Bitmap image in Illustrator?

If you're a professional photographer with 50,000 pictures stored now and more coming all the time, you need to forget about using iPhoto and get yourself some professional-quality digital asset management software. iPhoto is not meant for people like you, and instead of providing a simple, elegant one-stop answer to all your needs, iPhoto is actually complicating your life.
You need an application that will:
- catalog ALL your images and keep track of where they are, no matter how many DVDs, folders, partitions or hard drives they're spread over;
- display thumbnails of ALL of them, even when the DVD that contains them is not present in any drive, so you can select all the ones you want for a project;
- find and copy (or export) the originals of all the files you've selected in the browser window, even if it means prompting you to insert the necessary DVDs for all of them.
I suggest Googling "digital asset management software Macintosh" and seeing what turns up. I used to use an old version of Extensis Portfolio, and even that would have been better for your purposes than iPhoto is.

PSE 8 coloring a black and white image

Okay, so I downloaded a free trial of PSE 8, so my experience with it is limited, which may contribute to my problem. I've watched tutorials on how to add color to a black and white photo using the paintbrush tool, though I haven't watched one for PSE 8.
I'll make a new layer, paint part of the picture, and then add another layer. But when I click a different color to paint with, it changes the color of what I already painted, even though I'm on a different layer.
Also when I tried to just save the image with one part painted, it didn't save it, and the image looked as it did originally.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi,
Are you using the right tool to paint on a layer?
For coloring a black and white image, you need to save different areas of your image on a different layer and then use either Paint brush or a Paint bucket tool.
It seems that you are selecting a wrong tool. For selecting Brush, press B.
Then try painting on one part of the image and then go to the the color swatch present at the end of the tools panel on the left as :
Now click on the foreground color swatch(on the top) to change the color with which you want to paint.This will not change the color of other layers on changing the color.

Printing problems, black mark appears on document when printing using auto portrait/landscape

As the title says, pdf is fine on screen but when printing using auto portrait/landscape a black mark appears on the screen as in the photos below
when the orientation is selected the line disapears and the print works correctly
Anyone have any idea why this would happen?
Thanks
Ben

Hello Pelle,
Thanks for the feedback. Our printing code in Adobe Reader Touch doesn't have that capability right now, but since you mention it we should probably do what you're requesting by default. I'll put that into our backlog for a future update, but I can't say yet when it will be available.
In the interim, if you have pages that are different orientations, you can print them in blocks manually to get what you want, but I understand that's a hassle.

Tom Tom on Nokia N86 8MP?

Hello all, Would appreciate some advice as to the best sat Nav software on the market? Having owned a Tom Tom Sat Nav I would prefer if there was compatible software for my Nokia N86 8MP mobile phone as Tom Tom are usually user friendly! Also would like to here from people that have used the following software and there experiences with it: Navmii Co Pilot N Drive Route 66 Garmin XT Mobile. Thanks in advance Khan

Thanks for the reply "jjegan" I did not realize there was a co pilot 8 due out for Nokia, must say looks the business. Any ideas mate when it is due for release? Heard good things about the Garmin Xt mobile but put off due to them no longer supporting this and last update to map i believe was in 2008! NDrive looks ok but again put off due to customer support in Portugal and no office in UK. Any ideas on the Navmii? They seem to be located in UK and reasonably priced at £29.99. If release date is not to far away for copilot 8, i think i will hold tight for this version but thanks for the input much appreciated. Khan

N86 8MP

First time poster, Hello all.
I have just got the N86 8MP phone and need to clear up a few things in my head.
1st why cant I store music files in E: Mass Memory as I have 6GB free
2nd is E: Mass Memory storage inbuilt on phone or is it on the internet.
Cheers for any info or other good tips for this phone.

How are you uploading the files? if its via bluetooth, the files will be sent to message inbox memory which is set to phone memory by default, you'll have to set it to mass memory, but still you'll have to manually save each song still (unless done through ovi i guess. Never tried it that way). In order to save your mp3 into your phone's mass memory the easy way, when you connect your phone to your PC select Mass Memory mode and then the mass memory would appear like a flash drive in the my computer browser. Just tread it like you would a thumb drive.

Inverted black and white images in iPhoto 6

After I recently upgraded to OS X 10.4.8, a number of black and white images in my iPhoto 6 library started showing up inverted (like negatives) when I open them. The thumbnails, however, are in regular black and white. This didn't happen using OS X 10.4.3. I can't seem to find a tool in iPhoto 6 to convert these images to the correct display. Do you have any explanations or suggestions?
Macintosh PowerPC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

iPhoto 6 does not work well with Grayscale. You'll need to convert them to sRGB. They'll still be black & white, but they'll have a color profile that iPhoto 6 will accept. Old Toad created an Automator application to embed the sRGB profile into your photos. Go to his Toad's Cellar and download the "Embed wRGB Color Profile 2" App. In Finder go in your Originals folder, then drop a roll folder containing these photos onto the app.

I cannot connect it to my PC with PC Suite by using bleutooth.
PC Suite can find the phone, but after entering the password (usually 123) it says "phone cannot be verified".
Software on the phone is updated, and my pc uses a compatible bleutoothdriver (in Vista), yes I checked.
How can I solve this problem?

Did you set your phone visibility to show to all?
