N97 and freaky rebooting behavior?????????

Ok so this morning, i wake up and unplug my phone like every morning. today is a bit different. i had a busy day ahead of me, looked at the phone to check the hour and all of a sudden the phone reboots. mind you it has never done so before. i look and wait and see what happens next. the only program that was running was emial. all widgets were in offline mode, again like every night before i go to bed. the cycle continues, i don't even have the time to plug anything in, here we go again. i finally got **bleep** with this behavior did a hard reset. fine. plugged my phone in, reinstalled firmware, did a reformat. so far so good. anyone else had a similar experience? 
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

Hep i got a serious strange problem like yours ... on a N95 one.
sometimes it has gone OK .. but for now ?
i put out the sim and battery for about a day, then put back those.
BUT it seems not enough .. the pb comes from some mis-process/automatic turn-off the phone:
the screen just switches off, then it takes some 12 s to get back to the screen.. which stays lightened till all is on (the normal screen... and just there, it switch again off again ... cycle.
What are the hypothesis ?
about the slide: i lose the phone just after opening very fast the slider and click on left  green button.. !
i recover 4h later by using a headphone (pb about jack !) .. and it came back (all functions: tél/radio/TV !)... but i lose it once morebecause i ... opened the slide fast and try to have the calendar with the icon: so
the pb comes from the slider
or from the buttons (?)
then it seems the problem appears after i let my phone in a pocket, during some foggy day (?)...
may be a humidity cause ?
may be some component damage from oxydation (hep that's the Nokia rapid answer !)
I think NOKIA may have found the real cause of the problem, but they just give their "no solution, no garanty: oxydation" which seems very easy answer and no real try to repair !
(similar to "ooops your wheel has a flat tire! oohh, no good road you drive ... !!!") and ..
nothing more,
hhheey NOKIA comp. may you be able to repair your phone or is it only a kleenex tech ? yep i think so, even sofisticated phones are just kleenex for them ! poor unsustainable !
What do you think about your phone symptoms ?
similar
from other symptoms ?
I do like to read about your precise process, and if you recover the phone or not ?
I don't know what the real pb, coz  "unrepairable phone due to oxydation" seems wrong coz i could sometimes use it  since ... (may be the slider ?) !
thanks for all your answers .
just to precise i used to get a clean OS too, get the *#76...# things to default... all clean, with no 4Go card , even using an other battery...etc that comes not from the OS (which is till there and keeps my messages too ) all comes from an electro/elec/mecanic problem. (?)

  • Difference between Soft and Hard Reboot

    Dear all
    Can anybody tell difference between the hard and soft reboot Option? Does it matter if a user is logged on to the Windows Desktop or not?

    And after clarifying these questions what is the difference from the above compared to "Config Manager Device Restart"
    Any help is much appreciated.

  • Every time I ask Siri to find something near me, she says that she cannot find my location, and to turn on my location settings and siri settings. These are both on and after rebooting it still doesn't work. How do I fix this?

    Every time I ask Siri to find something near me, she says that she cannot find my location because I need to turn on location services in the settings menu and in siri. These are both on, and after rebooting my phone it still doesn't work correctly. How do I fix this?

    No, the app does not have to completely restart. It gets shifted in its open state into storage. Similar to how a computer uses the hard disk when it has insufficient memory.
    What complicates things is that sometimes memory does not get returned for reuse when you close an app. Thus yo should periodically double click the Home button and "delete" unnecessary apps from the multitasking dock and power off and then back on the iPod.

    If you can't get dragging to work, just click on Safari from your Applications folder, and it should appear in the dock. Then you can right-click on the icon and PIN it permanently there.

  • I imported about 300 RAW images yesterday and worked with them for about an hour. iPhoto locked up on me and I rebooted. After I did the event icon is now gray and it says there are no photos. I know the photos are there. Any idea how I can recover them?

    a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card --  I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • Can't update due to message saying a prior update is still running and to reboot, but I have rebooted 4 or 5 times

    Can't update due to message saying a prior update is still running and to reboot, but I have rebooted at least 4 or 5 times What do I need to remove to get the install to work?
    I am stuck at FireFox 3.6.18 as no update actually installs, even when I am logged in as the admin.
    i am running XP SP3
    I have the update files for version 4, 6, 8, and 10. IF I can figure out the error - probably in the registry - which update should I start with

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and delete the Firefox program folder to remove any leftover files.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

  • Nokia Experience (N97 and 5800)

    About two weeks ago I was in the market for new a new cell phone...being an AT&T user I decided to go unlocked instead of buying a subsidised phone.  After searching the net I gave up and went to a cell phone "boutique" store here in Washington DC which specialize in unlocked phones.  This place came highly recomended so I gave them a try.  I went into the store to find that there was a lot of Nokia advertisement in the store.  In the past I haven't dealt with nokia much.  I told the salesman what I was looking for and he first tried to sell me an IPhone but at $800 unlocked I passed.  I then told him that I was also looking for a phone for my girlfriend.  I have big fingers so I needed a keyboard...long story short I left the store with an N97 for myself and a 5800 for my GF.  
    I should have done more research on Nokia and not just listen to the salesman.  
    The first few days were great then came an update for the N97 and things seemed wonderful.  But things started going south for both phones.  Since the 5800 belonged to my GF and ultimately caused me the most grief we'll start with that one.
    5800:
    My GF uses the phone for three things...talking, texting and facebook.  The phone is untouched outside of the latest updates and adding the Facebook app.  Every so often the phone will freeze after a phone call, she is usually around me when this happens and she just throws the phone at me and says fix it.  The Facebook app is useless and doesn't come close to any other Facebook app out there (I hear it constantly).  The web browser will shut down on it's own for no reason.  She has like 1000 friends literally and she find scrolling through her contacts annoying and the search function is not always helpful.  There are many other little small glitches that she complains about and I have to hear and feel the results...thans Nokia.
    I use the N97 myself.  I got it because it has the Keyboad and I am a DJ and have tons of music that I like to carry with me.  After a couple of days of use and a couple of app installs..the phone became slow(er). Switching from landscape to portrait and back would cause the phone to stop and think for a second (or two).  The phone wants to go to landscape when some one call, this a very annoying and gets in the way.  I have almost 30 gb of music and phonos in the phone and I will say that digging through them is painful to say the least...why can the photos be place in folders in the gallery?  The nokia browser does the samething that the 5800 does with the shutting down problem.  The alarm clock is off by several minutes.  My phones randomly freezes for no apparent reason.  
    After searching the web I stumbled across this forum and started reading the many topic...wow I am not alone.  Many people are having the same issues and it looks like these issues have been around for some time.  Isn't this a Nokia forum?  Do they even read this forum?  How could these phone go through several updates and still have the same annoying problems?  All I can say is WOW. Before the is Phone I had a Blackberry and it too had its bugs when it came out but in subsequent updates the bugs went away.  I have heard the same for other smarthpones.  Being a first time Nokia user, this left a foul taste in my mouth.  I call the store to complain and they are willing to cut me a deal on any other phone they sell since my Nokia experience has been less than favorable.  
    Sorry for the long rant...I didn't come here to vent, I actually came for advice.  Before I go and return these phone and lay down even more money, please tell me that there is a light at the end of this tunnel.  You guys have more experience with Nokia's than I do and I am willing to listen to your advice in this matter...should I stay or should I leave?  HELP!!!   

    Okey, thanks. Nice to know!

  • No SIM on iPad. Tried different cards, same thing. Updated and multiple reboots have solved the problem. IPad fault?

    No Sim on iPad. Tried different cards, same thing. Updated iOS and multiple reboots, no luck. iPad fault? What do I do now, ask for replacement?

    Apple has acknowledged that the "no sim card" message has been a problem for some users. iOS 5.1 is reported by MacWorld to resolve this issue. 5.1 is in development and a beta version has been seeded to developers. In the meant time I suggest contacting Apple.

  • Random and frequent reboots

    Hi, I pre-ordered a N900 two months ago. I finally got it yesterday, and since then I've been experiencing random and frequent reboots of the device. I don't have to do anything fancy, it simply reboots from time to time without warning. It's a real pain.
    This is being discuss in the maemo website [1] and there's two bugs [2] & [3] open on this issue. I'd like to know if I should return the device as many are doing or if I should wait for a prompt firmware upgrade. I don't want to wait another two months for a replacement (I think the supplies are a bit short due to high demand) but I don't want to stick to a possible erratic hardware.
    Please Nokia, give me some advice. Thanks. 
    [1] http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=35055
    [2] https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6334
    [3] https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6350

    I have N900 for almost a month, and rebooted me once. I started installing an application, canceled, when i tried to install it again rebooted. After reboot i tried to install same application, worked fine.
    I'm using firmware version 1.2009.42-11 atm, works better with multitasking then previous version. Even with previous firmware, NEVER froze and rebooted once (i think thats pretty awsome for a brand new OS). It has amazing stability, and trust me, i use it A LOT, and 80% of the time i have it online.

  • N97 and Home Media

    Anyone found where Home Media is in the N97 ? I'm need it to browse and access PC based media the way I did with my N95.  Thanks

    Hi, unfortunately I don't believe it's possible, I am a current N97 and ex (and current) N95 8gig user. However, if you want a very useable compromise start a free Ovi Files account. I have one and can access up to 10 gig of files from my pc from anywhere any time on phone even when computer switched off. If I wnted to leave computer connected to web when I'm out I could access the lot !! It's worth a go, don't use it a lot , but if I occasionally need a photo or tune from my 'Anytime ' files it's handy to just download to my phone.
    Good Luck

  • N97 and N85 Camera mechanism malfunction from magn...

    Hello all,
    I'm new here and the reason that registered is to tell to you about thing that i discovered yesterday.
    So if you have N97 and use a pouch to carry it on your belt, you may be aware that in case the pouch
    closed by the built-in magnets, the magnets will operate the camera mechanism even if the phone is locked.
    As soon as i discovered it on my new Nokia N97, i picked up from my memory that my fiernd who owns
    the Nokia N85, complaned in the past about unwanted front camera operation. We made the test on the N85
    and found the same as on N97 - even when the phone is locked, the front camers starts operation from the
    magnets proximity. And its the magnets in the standard cell-phone pouch. I bought my Nokia N97 few days
    ago at the Orange provider store together with the pouch. My N97's locker side swich is already doesnt operate
    well becase of the magnets of the pouch. Since the pouch was recomened by Orange and sold in the Orange
    office, i asked today the Orange to exchange my N97 by new one.
    The problem of the sensitivity to the magnets in pouch: the front camera operates and some times even records.
    So the battery of the phone and memory are becoming empty much faster than expected.
    So take care guys - buy only non-magnetic locking pouch!
    Best regards!

    Guys, i've been told by Orange that they will replace my phone since te magnets of the pouch screwed up the sensors...

  • N97 and SAP V2 Bluetooth

    Hi
    I have a Mercedes Benz E220 CDI with the COMAND systems and a SAP V2 Bluetooth cradle, which I currently use in conjunction with my Nokia N95
    I am consiering buying the new N97 and want to know whether it is compatiable with the SAP V2?
    Can anyone help? 

    I can help. I have that running since yesterday when my new N97 came and it runs like magic. Not only is the pairing relatively easy but the remote access works wonderfully. Then you press 0000 / dial on the Car phone (MB Command in my case) and the phone book is transferred to the Merc including ALL !!! numbers that you have per contact. In other words no more multiple entries in your Outlook, just because the stupid Bluetooth in your car can't handle multiple numbers per contact. Hats off to the folks at Nokia. Nice Bluetooth SAP implementation.
    The one thing you need to know is that the MB command takes a very long time for the initial pairing and phone book transfer. It takes for absolutely ever and while it is working on it it constantly gives you messages to the effect that 'no phone is detected' and 'no connection can be established' and "Sorry but you are a total loser" etc. when in fact everything is absolutely fine. This threw me the first time I did this. Once you have the pairing completed, just dial for zeros and hit dial and let it do its thing and give it 10 mins or so. Once you are set up, in the future you just get in the car and everything is automatic, as long as you have Bluetooth enabled on the phone.
    However, it does not stop there. WHILE you have your N97 paired up in SIM ACCESS mode, you go to the N's music player, start your favourite music, select random play, switch on the FM transmitter on your phone and the thing will actually start transmitting your favourite music to your car radio in great quality. Now, THIS is all you ever wanted from a mobile comms system and never dared to ask, a clean car interior in terms of radiation, sweetened with some smooth music from your mobile phone and all with just one device. I got so carried away, that I actually fiddled on my car's command system in order to switch tracks on the N. Took a minute to realize I was listening to a Radio station called Nokia which was what appeared on the Radio's Display as the Broadcast Station's name ;-). Obviously I don't know about any other cars. Mine is a SL350 / 2007 with its standard MB command system.
    I then figured that my radio actually supports WAP and also gives me access to my SMS text messages, including text or voice response option. Next thing I'll try is whether I can get a stock ticker or RSS feed of sorts pushed to my radio display via WAP. As you figure by now I am very happy with the N97. It is an expensive phone but if it holds up mechanically, I think I will be using this for a long time.
