N91 freeze problem issue

Recently my N91 seems to completely freeze when I apply any theme apart from the default theme. When the freeze happens you can do nothing with the phone, not even switch it off, and I have to resort to taking the battery out and then switching it back on. This just brings up the Nokia logo and then a white screen. At this point, you can do nothing with the phone. Have learned that if you leave it in this state, the battery runs out, you can then put it to charge and then switch on. The phone defaults to original theme/background and you can use relatively normally again... any clues/ideas? Thanks.

Hi
Glad to here.
The internet is amazing. The tips are now everywhere (they cane after the N91 shipped)
Tip 4 talks about themes

  • I know how to fix the iTunes 7 / firmware ver. 1.2 freeze problem

    Many of you (like me) are having major headaches because of the new updates that Apple has been releasing (i.e. iTunes 7). So far I only know that this affects the Video iPod, but this could very well fix other models too.
    Here are some symptoms of what the following will fix, and what you most likely have already done to try and fix it.
    - iPod keeps freezing after a few seconds ever since you updated to iTunes 7 and/or iPod software ver. 1.2.
    - iPod will remain in Do Not Disconnect mode even after ejecting or disconnecting
    - A forced reset does not fix it, as it repeats the above.
    - Restoring the iPod through iTunes does not help
    So, here's what to do.
    The old iPod updater software is how you will fix all of this. Unfortunately, because iTunes 7 thinks that it's better and more up to date, it will prevent you from opening the old version of the software if you still have it on your machine.
    So first of all, uninstall iTunes 7.0. (You do not have to remove your library information, just the software.) Restart the computer.
    If you still have the old iPod updater, try it and see if it runs. If it does, read on. If not, skip to the next paragraph. So, if it does run, simply hit Restore and you can go back to a previous version of the firmware. I believe that Apple discontinued the firmware page since releasing iTunes 7. Look around some search engines like Google if you really want the latest firmware.
    Take out the installation CD that came with your iPod. Run it and it should install the old iPod updater along with iTunes 6.x. iTunes 6.x cannot run since iTunes 7 changed your libary's formatting, but that will not be a problem. Run the Restore process in the old updater and it should be alright for you to start loading your stuff on again without problems.
    Since iTunes 7 reformatted your libary listing, iTunes 6 will no longer work. However, you can still use it by reinstalling iTunes 7. Just make sure you do the following.
    TO KEEP THE SAME THING FROM HAPPENING AGAIN
    iTunes 7 is actually alright. It's the updater part of it that will screw up your iPod.
    - iTunes 7 will tell you that a new iPod software version is available when you open it.
    - Check the "Never Ask Again" box and click Don't Install.
    - When you sync your iPod to your computer, NEVER touch the Version section when you're changing your iPod's settings. Everything else is alright to work with.
    - Everything will work fine as long as you never update the iPod's software via iTunes, at least until the programmers can fix this issue in a later release or patch.
    I hope this helps out a lot of you. Pretty lame of Apple to miss something this big during debugging.

    Listen to this person, he knows exactly what he's talking about. My unit had the freezing problem, the visual artifact problem, and eventually would only show a blank white screen after I had tinkered too long. Luckily I have another computer that I hadn't yet upgraded to itunes 7 and it had the last firmware upgrade before the itunes 7 one. From disk mode I was able to restore it to the previous firmware version, and now the ipod works perfectly.
    I too am almost disqusted with Apple for 1) missing this problem and 2) not letting people know!
    I wonder how many more people are going to have lots of problems so apple can protect their PR.
    Anyways, what would be really helpful would be if someone could upgrade the latest firmware installer before itunes 7 (it's an individual ipod updating program, not itunes 6.xx)somewhere on the internet so users could download it and do away with this evil 1.2 firmware.

  • Nokia C7 freeze problem

    Hello. I use Nokia C7. All works fine but often when I surf the web browser, use skype, search updates and doing many other things my Nokia C7 freeze and dont (cant) resart. Only option to restart the phone is remove and insert battery. How to FIX this problem?

    This problem has nothing to do with applications added or needing software updates. It is purely a hardware problem, there seems to be a fundamental flaw with the design of Nokia phones, and it is very disappointing that they are not more honest about the problem.
    My Nokia C7 seems to freeze frequently when processing CPU intensive processes especially, such as trying to watch videos on the BBC iplayer or Youtube, but can happen anytime. The pattern seems to be with these phones (and the N8) that these freezes happen quicker and quicker as time goes on. It is just not good enough to say take the battery out, which is the ONLY way to reboot the phone, do other phone users of different manufacturers have to do this? Not in my experience.
    I find it incredible that Nokia, with its dwindling share market, can release these phones without having fully tested them properly. You may have gathered that I feel rather disgruntled with Nokia, I have always had Nokia phones but I am now regretting my decision to start a new contract with this phone. I like it and the features, but what point is there in giving you applications such as the Navigation and the iplayer for example if you can't use them because of freezing.
    I will be sending my C7 off for repair next week, in the hope that they have sorted out their hardware issue, but I say beware to anyone else with this phone. If you have had occasional freezing problems, then they will in all likelihood increase as the internal hardware degrades.

  • Refreshed laptop with Win 8.1 DVD - Freezing Problems

    I had freezing problems on my Toshiba and decided to refresh it with full windows 8.1 DVD I purchased separately,
    Toshiba initially had Vista. I bought upgraded to Win 8 pro 64 and then to 8.1 pro 64
    Toshiba didn't provide any restoration discs or anything. Windows 8 refresh wouldn't work, said was missing files and wouldn't accept my Win 8 upgrade downloaded file as a refresh media source. So I went out and bought Win 8.1.
    Refreshed fine without freezing , it deleted every single program on my computer , only left files.
    Now I have 0 programs on my toshiba that still freezes. any help appreciated. 
    my computer specs.
    Toshiba (P500-ST5801) - 64 bit

    There are no drivers for your lappy with windows 8 at all,  yes you would get crashes. You can try a bios update, but its to old to even try.

  • Video/film conversion freezing problem during play...

    hiya
    i was wondering can anyone help me. i have been trying to transfer films to my n97mini using the ovi package. it seems to convert ok and transfer but when i try to play the films on my phone they all seem to freeze at the 25min to 27min mark during playback, but the sound keeps playing.
    thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi I have experienced the same video playback freezing problem. This occurred after installing the latest phone os upgrade (N97) . Before this I had no video freeze problems but many memory related issues. In my view what has happened is that memory that was prevoiusly allocatedto video support has been reassigned to address the  other memory related issues.. I have also tried to use the video conversion software contained within the PC Suite software and although the video gets converted and copied onto the phone successfully, the video does not work. I dont believe this is a codecs issue as this should be sorted out by the converter utility.. Can you please fix this as soon as possible and issue another os upgrade, preferably one that works on Windows Vista!

  • Since I have uploaded new version of IOS 7 I started to expirience freezing problems of my device. Could you show way of fixing thise problem?

    Since I have uploaded new version of IOS 7 I started to expirience freezing problems of my device. Could you show way of fixing thise problem?

    Hello Baladadash,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone.  It is definitely inconvenient and frustrating when you are not able to access your iPhone.
    I recommend following these steps for an issue like this (you can skip 4 because it does not relate to the issue you are experiencing):
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

  • 8 G Nano Freezing Problems--How Widespread Is It And Another Question

    I got this 8 G Nano about 1 and 1/2 weeks ago. Last night it froze. I did the "hold switch on and off" and it worked. Then I did the "center and menu" option which gave me the Apple icon when I turned it on with a prompt to use iTunes to restore the Nano. Since I am away from my computer, I have not be able to do that yet. My questions are: how widespread is the freezing problem and is there anything I can do to lessen the chances of it occuring, and since I got the Apple icon on the screen will I encounter any problems when I do the restore?

    I think it would be a little bit of a skewed judgement of how widespread any particular problem is based on the responses on this board. You have to keep in mind that most people come here in the first place because of a problem they are experiencing. So it's likely that the ratio on here would be extremely high. The people that post on here only represent a small number (ratio wise) of ipod users world wide so over all the problems described on here may not be as widespread as it may appear (also keep in mind that other sites where complaints are logged would have the same issue...and it's very likely that a number of the complaints here are reposted on various sites by the same people). On here, I am one of the few people that has not experienced the majority of the issues that others have posted about. I have not had to reset my ipod or do a restore or go through any of the 5 R's. On here I feel like I may be on of the lucky minority but the people around me represent a different picture. No problems with their units with the exception of the on-the-go playlists bug and the initial firmware bugs everyone experienced.
    As for experiencing any problems when you go to restore due to you having the Apple icon...in theory I would like to tell you no, you won't have any problems, but the reality seems to be that it's impossible to really predict what will happen.
    Hope all works out for you.

  • What are the symptoms of the  capacitor freezing problem?

    I'm concerned that the freezing problems of my eMac that I've posted about on earlier threads results from a bad capacitor. Are there specific symptoms of that problem that would indicate my eMac should be checked by Apple? My computer falls within the range of serial numbers where this could be the issue.

    The Apple warrantee extension program only refers to video and power problems, not freezing. The most sure-fire way to check if you have bad caps is to open the access door at the back of your eMac and look at the logic board next to the RAM slots. There are two little objects that look like 1/4 of a AA battery. (Googling "capacitor plague" should get you some pictures of capacitors if you're not sure what to look for.) If the top of either or both of them is cracked, swollen or leaking a discharge you know for sure that you have bad capacitors and Apple should have no problem fixing things for you. If you don't see any of those things, it might still mean that you have bad caps but they haven't shown it yet.
    If you do plan to open your eMac, it's a good idea to put a towel on the desk so that you can avoid scratching the screen. It makes it more secure, too, and no doubt more comfy for your eMac.

  • Nano 3G Freeze\Reset Issues

    Hi,
    As i have read on this forum, many people are experiencing recurring resets or freezing of their new ipod nano 3g.
    I too am having this problem and neither Apples' or any of your kind suggestions have brought me to a happy resolution.
    I've owned several ipods, an appletv, airport and a sweet 23" LCD but i have never so much as looked at the tech support pages so i have no experience with their levels of support.
    I am wondering if this poor response to a known issue is typical of Apple.
    Based on your collective previous experiences, should i expect Apple to address this issue anytime soon or should i try to reclaim my perfectly good 6gb mini from my brother?
    Cheers,
    Ronnie.

    I am going back to my mini. I have had the 8gb Nano 3rd gen for one month. In our family we have had every model right from day one. This one, is awful. It keeps freezing, turns off frequently...does quirky things when synching....I give up.
    I had to restore it due to freezing problems..now I can no longer watch the movies I purchased thru Itunes. It won't play movies, but it will play music videos...and I am not getting all my album artwork...just a few on coverflow.
    It makes me ill.

  • Lumia 920 restaring and freezing problem !!!

    dear sir/madam,
    I have bought Nokia Lumia 920 four months back. I have been facing restart problem the day I bought it. I went to Nokia care twice (khobar,SA). But still im facing the same issue. Every day it restarts 2 to 3 times. And sometimes im facing freezing problem also...once it get freezes I need to do hard reset, whenevr I do the reset, time and date changes to Sept 2012. Its really annoying. I'm fed up of using this phone. And im not at all satisfied with the service. When evryone was suggesting me to go for iPhone 5, I stood on Nokia Lumia 920. But these issues makes me to feel that I took a wrong decision. I had spent too much money this mobile but not worth it. I need to travel 100kms to reach Nokia care. That too on working days. Please make it worth when I go next time. Else I will SWITCH TO IPHONE!!!

    now my phone got freezed and not booting up...i tried hard reset everything still..its dead from d past 2 days....pls help

  • Fix for Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse Freeze problem.

    After deleting the following file: /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    And re-pairing my Apple Bluetooth keyboard and mouse all of my freezing problems have been resolved.

    For what it's worth...
    I have read a bunch of different threads on this. So far I have:
    - downgraded my TimeCapsule (still had problems)
    - Upgraded to 10.5.7 (still had problems)
    - made both the bluetooth keyboard and might mouse "favorites" per http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1907901&tstart=30
    - disabled bluetooth in the network panel
    ...and left an old PC mouse connected to a USB port.
    The add as favorites / disable in network panel I have done fairly recently and - so far - no problems.
    YMMV...
