N96 Update problem.

Hi. I just bought a new n96, which seems very nice, made in finland, brand new etc, however I decided to update the software via nokia pc suite. It sees the phone, and says that I can update it from my current version to a new one. However during the "updating the software" stage, when the bar is about 15% full, it says that there is some sort or recovery problem and I should try to take out my battery, reinsert it again, plug in the charger once again and press continue. Tried it, however the same problem occurs over and over again. What can I do about it?
Also, where are your repair and support centres in london (do you have any, I failed to fine them on the website)?
Many thanks

I have successfully updated my software yesterday. Now I have V11.101.098.1 and the phone performs a little bit better.
Make sure you got the latest version of NSU which is V1.4.64en. Please follow the instructions step by step. I also thought something was wrong with the NSU and the instructions when I come across the 'recovery' bit. Be patient and you will get there. It takes a few minutes, more than you thought it would. During the 'recovery' bit, leave the usb cable connected and just remove the battery and put it back on. Press 'continue' and then just press the power button on the phone only once. You will NOT see an immediate response from the phone or the NSU. This is where you have to be careful not to unplug the usb cable. Trust me after a few minutes you will see things start to move again, fast. Just before completion the phone screen switches on in 'test mode'. You will see the ' N96 Disconnected' message on the system tray through out most of the process. This is normal and you just leave things as it is.
Read the on screen instructions please. It is all there.

Nokia N96 updating problems

Hello
First, I know N96 is an old phone, but I wanted it so bad, and i got one few months ago. I bough it with 20.050 firmware in it, and when i went check for updates (OTA) it said, and it always says no updates available. I checked the code behind the battery and its: 0543719, checked on the site says there is newer version firmware for my phone available. I tried updating with Nokia Software Updater, again latest version, but it shows error saying it can't identify my device. A friend of mine told me he updates via Ovi suite. I installed it and tried to update. It detected my phone, firmware and everything, it downloaded the latest firmware, but when i go to install, it shows that my usb is disconnected, and then connected again.. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zy8EZd0uBYc)
Is there any way i can update to the latest firmware? Can my phone die or get stuck on the oldest firmware if i do recovery? thanks.

There are 3 ways to update the firmware for the N96 and they are
1. OTA (over the air) which is the preferred method.
2. Ovi Suite/Nokia Software Updater
3. Nokia Care Point.
There is always a risk of bricking the phone if the update fails. This will then definitely require a trip to the local Nokia Care Point.
Sometimes when I encounter problems with the updating process, I actually hard reset the phone using the *#7370# reset code before I update. This could rid the phone of any settings etc that may be causing the problem.
Remember to backup your phone before attempting anything.
Good luck.

Nokia n96 update problem

Hello
i have problem with my nokia n96, when i open nokia pc suite and go to software update show me 11.101 and only two applications are available: mail for exchange and nokia messaging. I do not see there download the software or something like that. Software is from 2008 i want to update this phone but i can't. I downloaded NSU but this can not install... Please HELP. I want in update polish language.
Solved!

Is your phone locked to any Network ? Availability of update depends on region / Product Code and also for locked devices an approval from the Operator is needed. In any case it seems quite a long time that the phone has this version. You may ask your local Nokia Care whether they can help updating the Firmware to the latest version ...

N96 various problems

Hi All
Wonder if you can help.
Problem 1. Version V12-043 update does not appear to be available for Vodafone as yet. Anyone got the same problem or are Vodafone just being really slow in adding their bits to it and releasing the update
Problem 2. Radio. Invariably, when I'm listening to the radio, it goes very fuzzy and I have to try to reboot the phone, or it reboots itself, or I actually have to take the battery out as its stuck!
Problem 3. I'm running beta v3 of ovi maps and when I am listening to the radio, and try to access the mapping function it reboots the phone (have reported this on betalabs, waiting for a response)
Problem 4. I have bought a cable (CA-126) which is a combined, VERY USEFUL, cable which uses USB to charge and link to the Nokia PC Suite which works really well as I can work on the train and connect with 3g with the phone and still talk to people, all with a single cable etc, etc. BUT when I try to listen to music, there is a constant, scrolling message that says USB Connection in progress and I can't get the music player to play. Slightly annoying but wondered if anyone had the same issue out there in Nokia cyberland. It only happens with this software (not any other software on the phone, tv for eg. The CA-101 datacable supplied with the phone still allows me to use the music player at the same time it is connected. Bug or a function of the cable?
Don't get me wrong, this phone is fantastic and I love everything I can do with it, especially for business, but I feel vodafone are failing me a bit on the updates side, and it is the most buggy phone I have ever had from Nokia. Still, this is the modern world and these things are sent to try us
Any help would be fantastic
thanks all
Birky

Thanks
However with the cable supplied with the phone this doesn't happen and I can listen to music at the same time.
Both are official Nokia cables, so its disappointing that there isn't consistency in the way they work.
Ultimately I'm guessing this is another bug with the n96, and having read a lot of the forums, particularly on Vodafones website, it doesn't look like they will be updating the firmware at all for the n96. Very disappointing
Don't get me wrong, I really like this phone, but it is full of bugs, slow, and will only work properly for me when vodafone release the update, if they ever do
They are embarassing Nokia here and you would have thought that Nokia would have put a bit of pressure on to get them to do it.
With all the comments people have made on Vodafone and Nokia's website about this issue, I'm surprised no-ones listening. Customer service is dead, I'm off to get a blackberry

N96 WiFi problems

n96 is the full vanilla unlocked version x has latest firmware 11 installed x im using a sky netgear router x every time i go to a web page it loads up about 280kbs then just stops x no matter how many times i reload page it never loads more than 280kbs x ive cleared cache memory but still cant download a full web page using wifi IF however i use either of my networks (o2 and Vodafone)gprs connecions ive no problems web pages download quick and pages scroll perfectly x my old moby is a N95 classic if i use both mobys at same time to go to an identicle web site the N95 downloads perfectly whilst the N96 stops at 280kbs x so how do i get round this problem x btw N96 and N95 are using identicle wifi settings x

There's been quite a few reports of the N96's having trouble with sky branded netgear routers. Many of the normal netgears have had firmware updates that solve the issue but I believe there hasn't been one for the sky variant yet.
Most other brands of router work fine with the N96. I've been using it problem free with a BT homehub 1.5 & 2.0. A friend of mine has used it on at least six different brands and the only problematic one was the netgear.
When the N95 was first released there was a lot of problems with netgears that were solved in a firmware update for the router.
With the N96 having a newer operating system they must have changed something in the way that wi-fi works on it.
All you can really do is hope that the issue is either fixed in an update for the router or nokia change something in a future N96 update.

N96 Memory problem (internal 16GB)

N96 Memory problem (internal 16GB)
If I fill the internal memory with more than approx 5gb the phone goes crazy...
(9,3Gb free)
Here are a couple of examples
* The phone becomes alot slower
* When powering up the phone stops at a white blank screen until * I press the power button again.
* When starting the music player all buttons associated with the music player(both on phone and handsfree) becomes unresponsive and the only way to stop the music is to remove the battery to turn off the phone.
Another problem that occasionally occurs even if I have more free space on my memory card is:
* When using the alarm clock there is a 33% chance that the phone will freeze when I turn it off. The only way to use the phone again is to remove the battery.
I haven't updated the phone yet because the update isn't available yet in sweden it seems.
Solved!

This may be the issue, New content!:
Scanning for new content (slowness in UI)
- This is somewhat improved in 11.018 but still:
- If you've loaded many Pictures, Videos or Music, you may see the device appear to slow down or even become unresponsive. After new content has been added, it is being scanned by the device and being added to the media applications. Until that happens, the new content may not be visible in these applications (e.g. Photos and Video Center application) right away. The phone will need to find the files and create the thumbnails and other details. This information creation takes time and the processing may slow down the device. Your best option is to open Video Center and Photos and leave open in the background then check after a few minutes if the videos and pictures you loaded are already there before using your device.
The same applies if you insert a memory card with lots of content on it.
- Do Not leave the Photos or video center in background during this time.

Update problem - VBDATA table

Dear All,
We have update problems in our Quality systems, and also in every R/3 system that we create from a Production system copy.
Sometime the UPD and UP2 work processes hung without apparent reason.
In the SM50 I can see one or more of my update processes running for a lot of time (many hours) on the table VBDATA without perform any action.
In the tcode SM12 I donu2019t see any kind of lock, and I donu2019t understand why only sometime this problem happens.
Of course, from the SM13 I can see that during this problem the system is not able to perform any kind of update.
As I told in the beginning of the message, I have the same problem in other two R/3 systems, both created with a system copy from the production system.
The Production and the Developer systems seem not affected by this problem.
Have you got any idea about the reason of the problem?
Even if the Production systems is not directly affected, all the IT department is not able to work on the Quality system (or any other Test system), and the only workaround is to kill the UPD (or UP2) WPs affected.
Thanks in advance,
Federico Biavati
My R/3 System is a 4.7 on SLES9 and Oracle 10.2.0.2

Hello Siva,
This is what I did:
> Check how many entries do you have in VBDATA currently.
More than 1.000 in every SAP systems that Iu2019m creating from Production
> You might want to run the reorganize updates program to clear the old updates
> that are pending/in error
Good point!!
After the reorganization (ST14 u2013 Reorganize update requests) the table VBDATA is empty.
Iu2019ll check and Iu2019ll let you know if the problem is definitively solved.
Thanks for you help,
Federico

Chart x scale update problem

LabVIEW 8.5.1
Sweep Chart Problem
The x scale values do not update until after the 2nd sweep. The red line cursor gets to the end of the sweep and starts the next, but the scale numbers do not update until the next sweep starts.
It appears to be a problem with the chart, since it happens with any vi with a sweep chart. I've used versions 6 through 7 for years and never seen this. I've only recently moved to a new job with a new machine and version 8.5.1., so I'm not sure what to try.
I've included a simple example.
Thanks much,
JSC321

You have a typical race condition!
There is no data dependency between the property node and the while loop, so in your case the loop starts executing first and the property node starts slightly later, immediately erasing the first point. Execution order is not defined.
All you need to do is add a data dependency, e.g. as with the error cluster in the image. This forces the property node to complete before the loop is allowed to start.
(Execution order is enforced even if the wire value is not even used inside the loop )
Try it!

10.5.7 update problems

After installing the 10.5.7 update, Mail, iTunes and iPhoto will not run anymore. Anyone else having this problem?

jjtopspin wrote:
Before I came to these apple discussions re: update problems with 10.5.7, I tried to update this version yesterday and at the end of the download this message came up, the update "Mac OS X update" can't be saved. The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed to Apple.
I got the same message. The downloaded file that generated the message was only about 560 KB, indicating it was an incomplete download. I moved it to the trash & tried again. The second download attempt succeeded. I had a minor if nerve-wracking issue with the update (the blue looping screen reported in another topic in this forum) but after a forced shutdown & restart the update was completed successfully.
I have since updated my two other Macs so all those listed in my profile are now running 10.5.7. All do so without any problems & in fact work better & more stably than ever before.
I doubt that I'm unusual in this respect. Some users will have problems but I believe most won't, & for those that do most problems will turn out to be caused by something other than the update itself. So it has been for every previous Leopard update; I see no reason to think this one will be any different.

Cache update problem in Integration Directory

Hi all,
We have a cache update problem in our PI development server.
If we try to edit, save and activate any of the ID objects, under Cache notifications>Central Adapter Engine> all these objects are displayed as gray items.
We have tried:
1. Clearing the SLD Data Cache.
2. Did SXI_CACHE complete refresh.
3. Did CPA cache refresh.
4. Did a complete cache refresh of the server.
5. Restarted the server.
But still the problem has not bee resolved. Could you pls provide your inputs and resolution points.
Thank you very much.
regards,
Jack Nuson

HI Jack ,
first try to manually update the cache from ID select on your cache notifiaction and click on delta cache refresh button and refresh button .IF it does not yied any result then
Perform a full cache refresh using the URL
http://<host>:<port>/CPACache/refresh?mode=full . If the cache refresh happens properly then your problem will get resolved other wise you have to see the cache log to view why it failed there it will show you the exact reason . You might need to restart your java server also if the problem persist .
Regards,
Saurabh

Twitter Update Problem

Seems I have a Twitter Update problem. 1. I have no pirated software on my computer either from the App Store or anywhere else. 2. I did buy a set off templates for iWork through the App Store with my Bosses Apple ID (it's for work). Is that really the problem. That's ridiculous. The apple ID is mine, as is much of the software, but it's a computer use for work. If this is true it makes the App Store a lot less useful.

my apologies I was so annoyed. I didn't bother to state my issue. The issue is: Twitter is constantly asking to be updated. Even after it's updated. Even if it's deleted. I looked at the forums for a solution and found that people were having this problem who installed pirated app store apps.
I am logged into the app store on my account. All but one of the apps on my machine that come from the app store are on my account. However there is one piece of software on my account that I purchased, by logging out and logging in with her ID, purchasing it, installing and logging out, and again logging in as myself. I don't have an issue with that app. However Twitter, which was installed under my username, constantly says it needs to be updated. Hope that makes it clearer.
