Hi Briant566 ,
We must consider a mechanical error in my opinion? It only takes a little bit of corrosion to cause a 'bad connection' of the GPS satellite antenna in the phone. We are not allowed to discuss do-it-yourself hardware repairs in the forum, so I can only suggest have a qualified technician take the phone apart to clean everything and make sure all parts are in good condition.
I hope you get it sorted out.

Nokia 701 - GPS Signal Lost (Never get it to work...

I'm having trouble using the GPS on my 701. After a minute it will say "GPS signal lost" all the time. And moreover the current position it is indicating is wrong.(I'm using it outside) I've tried positioning method Wi-Fi/Network and Network Based. What could be the problem? Please help.

Hi,
When you use maps, finding your position should usually take about 40 seconds. If it takes longer than that, or it quickly looses location, your GPS receiver might be faulty, though it’s most likely caused by poor reception.
Try improving your reception by going outside and making sure you’re not surrounded by high buildings and are not moving while your phone finds its location. This way your phone can make a quicker connection with the satellite. Also make sure your hand isn’t covering the phone and don’t lock your screen while waiting for GPS, as this can cut off your reception.
If this doesn’t make a difference it’s best to visit a local care centre where can be checked if your GPS receiver is faulty. Your device can be repaired, if necessary. You can find a care centre by going to your local Nokia web page and clicking on Support.

Nokia 701 Helping with Lumia 800

I think you are right
I have found out how to create a folder and put it on the desk top
Iwas creating one in file manager but you have to create it in the apps page
But when you have created it you can not seem to be able to put anything in it!
Created in files you can put put files in it but can put on desk top !
Created in apps page can be put on desk top but can put nothing in it!
There must be a way ?

Come on Nokia please help me out

If an update failed, but you can still access the phone, do a reset. Dial *#7370# followed by 12345 if required, the phone will set to out of the box, but you'll have to set it up again manually and reinstall your apps. Before doing this, connect to Nokia Suite and update to the latest available software, then set up, you should then find everything works fine.
Good Luck

Nokia 701 menu button not working and other bugs

I have a "brand new" 701 with 111.020.0307 that won't update to 111.030.0609 because I'm in Italy .
Now I have a really annoying bug: the menu key, sometimes, stops working and won't bring up the menu if pressed briefly, and won't bring up the task list either (when pressed long).
Anyone experiencing this bug? The only way I found to make it work again is turn off and on again my phone... And the task list can't be found in menus, AFAIK. I could do that with my old 5800XM...
I bought my phone ONE WEEK ago... I really wouldn't like to format/reinstall already! Ideas?

soft reset may solve it. Look in settings and phone management.
Dont have to do a hard reset first. After soft reset, try reinstall the latest firmware through nokia suite if soft reset didnt solve your problem..
I have 701 and I am impressed overall with the device. Actually... I am very pleased with it.

Nokia 701 Symbian Belle Widget problem

when i see previews of themes on nokia store, there are some widgets that i don't have on my Nokia 701 (latest software update)...for example the (3G On/Off) widget and some others too, is there any place where i can get these widgets ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

These widgets are in the latest symbian Belle firmware that comes to S^3 devices like N8, C7 ... in february.
I think newer devices like your 701 will also get a software update of Belle.

Nokia 701 touch sensitive problem

I have with me 701 with the latest firmware version, i often have touch sensitive problem. Sometimes it get ok by just switch off the phone and sometime by removing battery (becoz then button too don't work).
what should i do?
Someone Plz help !

Hi salih_367,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
We're sorry to hear about your problem. It seems that your Nokia 701 headphone plug has a connectivity problem. As the problem is likely caused by the phone hardware, it is something you cannot fix yourself without voiding the warranty. What you can do however, is to check if the socket may have gotten some dirt or fluff in and try clean it.
If the problem persists, we would advise you to visit your nearest Nokia Care Point and let them have a look.
Let us know how you get on,

Is there an update for Nokia 701 which supports SN...

Hi,
I am new in Nokia development.
I have a Nokia 701 (SW version 111.020.0307 - Symbian Belle).
I want to develop a NFC application which sends NDEF messages (through SNEP protocol) to an Android phone (Ice cream).
From what I could see till now, the SW version that I have in my Nokia phone does not support SNEP.
I want to know if there is any SW update for Nokia 701 which supports SNEP.
Thanks

Hi,
Just adding more information in order to clarify my questions related to this post.
I am pretty new in Nokia developing. Actually this is the first application I was asked to develop/change.
I work to a company which has a client that has an application that runs in Nokia 701 (SW version  111.020.0307 - Symbian Belle). They want us to change this application in order to be able to send NDEF messages through SNEP protocol.
From what I could see till now, current SW version in the Nokia 701 does not support SNEP.
I also saw that new QTMobility versions support SNEP. I would like to know if I download the Nokia SDK and the new QTFramework/QTMobility:
1- I would be able to change the existing application to send NDEF messages through SNEP.
2- Would the modified application run in the current  Nokia 701 SW release? Or we would have to install any new lib to have it working?
3- Where can I find which QTFramework/QTMobility version are supported in current SW 111.020.0307 - Symbian Belle?
Sorry if my questions are very rudimentary, but, as I said, I am new in the company and pretty new in Nokia development. All those terms  QTFramework/QTMobility are new to me.
Thanks in advance,

Nokia 701 (BELLE) problems

I have N8 and 701 both.
There are some disappointments with 701.
(1) Google Maps is NOT working in 701 (Belle),
(2) While downloading Maps of India in Nokia Maps, the whole country map has to be downloaded at once for 701, whereas it can be downloaded state-wise in N8 (Anna),
(3) Anna has got one nice feature at home screen, I can check the Battery Level (in %), Activate and De-activate power saving mode, and go to Network Settings right from the Home Screen, which is NOT available in BELLE. :-(
