Nokia 500 Japanese dictionary - fonts?

Hello all,
recently I received a Nokia 500 for my business trip to Japan next week.
However, the internal dictionary can translate English or German to Japanese, but it doesn't show any characters besides boxes. Deletion and re-installation of Japanese language did not solve.
Currently I installed the cure-all YBrowser, and now I can see the Z:\resource\Fonts folder with its content.
Now, which font is needed to get Japanese text display, and where can I get it?
Best regards,
nihongodesu
BTW: Did anybody at N@ ever tested this feature?

Now I'm in Japan since several days.
It could be so nice, open WLAN everywhere, but my Nokia 500 browser crashes, showing boxes.
Of course, also the dictionary.
BTW: No maps available for Japan.
N@, you want to enter Asian market?
Have fun!

if i was not mistaken, symbian anna or should we say symbian ^3 phones should be able to get belle updates on q4 of 2011 but it was postponed and was moved on q1 2012 which is january to be specific, with great courage ang faith to nokia, we users waited for so long, and now nokia vietnam announced an update on feb 8 2012 and all of us were excited then now, there are so many complaints about the update, now nokia 500 will wait for a week? A month? Nokia, will you please be considerate on your customers?

Hi trarumaya,
You cannot install fonts yourself, the only way to get additional languages on your phone is to visit your local Nokia Care Point and ask them to do it. Please note that they can usually install only local languages, so it's best to phone them or visit the shop for more information.
If you only want to browse websites, we would advise you to give Opera Mini a try as it is capable of displaying different language fonts.
Hope this helps,

Nokia 500 Suggestions...

I habve purchased Nokia 500 recently but i found certain things which can be easily upgraded...Below is the list:
1) Folder playlist is missing. If i have to make a new playlist then it would be easy for me to select the folder then to select individual songs from the list of 2000 songs.
2) Screensaver remains hardly for 1-2 seconds. It should remain atleast for a minute or more...
3) Icon size on the Homescreen & fonts size are very very small. They should kindly increase it.
4) Key tones & touch screen tones are very low in volume (after setting it on high option also). They should increase it also.
5) Widget size of Music Player too Big on Homescreeen. Plz decrease it so that we can adjust other widgets also.
I hope they will consider these points & incorporate in the coming update....
Regards,
Vinit **bleep**

add a 'home' icon on the drag down menu, for multitasking without the physical button.

Nokia 500 - GPRS problem after updating to Nokia B...

Last month after the announcement of update of Nokia Belle to Nokia 500, I have updated the firmware. And it was successfull and it works fine.
But while try to browse the internet in mobile using WAP or Mobile data, I could not do so. There is a problem (Error in opening the page). Before i.e. while using Anna i regularly browsed and it worked fine. after updation only this problem arises. I have checked all the settings and all is looking correct but could not bowsing.
Pls help me.

Hi somebodyx87,
Could you please follow these steps if problem will occur again?
1. Disconnect your phone from PC if connected.
2. Open Control Panel and go to ‘Programs and Features’
3. From the list of available programs, choose ‘Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver’
4. Click on the ‘Change’ button on top toolbar.
5. In the setup dialog box that pops up next, choose ‘Repair’ and select ok. Wait for setup to complete.
6. Restart the computer if prompted.
7. Now connect your phone to the PC. Driver installation should complete and Nokia Suite (hopefully) should detect your mobile properly now.
I hope it helps!
Cheers,
Marina

Nokia 500 and Belle Refresh: browser issues.

Greetings.
The Belle Refresh was indeed a welcome refresh for this low-to-midrange phone. However, there is a serious issue with the browser.
With the update to Qt 4.8, you inherited QtWebKit, an amazing browser I know very well. In a desktop, it's fast, although it eats more memory than Firefox. However, in a cell phone like the 500, with limited amounts of RAM, this browser freezes the phone, due to the lack of memory. I'm also sure this browser can and will break phones with more memory and Belle FPx, since I've made QtWebKit use more than 1 GB of RAM in a computer running KDE.
There is a way to avoid this, called "user agent". Opera Mobile avoids this scenario by telling pages through user agent "hey, don't be hard on me, I'm browsing this from a cell phone", and pages adjust themselves to that scenario. However, you didn't tweak the user agent in your browser.
If you add no user agent tweaking, full HTML5 support, Flash Lite support (the much higher specced iPhone 4S doesn't support Flash), and low memory, you get a nightmare scenario.
1. The webpages send their complete, full featured DESKTOP versions to my Nokia 500.
2. QtWebKit supports everything, so, it makes a faithful attempt to properly render the page, even with Flash apps.
3. Nokia 500 has only 70-80 MB of RAM free for apps to use.
4. Boom.
Can you release a hotfix for Belle Refresh, changing the user agent of Nokia Browser to something that can trigger the mobile version of web pages? In that scenario, QtWebKit will eat much less memory and everyone will be happy. And please, can you do this for everyone using Belle Refresh?

I can confirm serious browser issues with the Belle refresh on a C6-01 device. The crash is so severe that only taking out the battery helps. It typically occurs when scrolling larger, feature-rich (and image-rich) webpages, so far I've seen this only on mobile connections (Edge, Umts), but that may be due to lack of testing with WLAN. (Where I've got WLAN I've usually a more powerful device as well..

Having issues with created PDFs requiring Japanese language font pack when they should not

Last week, I created 3 forms for someone. They wanted a fourth, so I put that together today, but halfway through making it, my Livecycle crashed and refused to load up again (I have NO idea why...), so I reinstalled it. I went on to finish making the form, but for some reason, even though the language settings is set to English and not viewer's default locale, the form requires a Japanese font pack. My computer is set to Japanese locale, but with the default language set to English, it should bypass this. The oddest thing is that one of the 3 forms that I already created and sent to them (and worked fine!!!), now also asks me for Japanese language font packs. What the heck is going on?
The forms use nothing other than Myriad Pro, which is set to be embedded. My Acrobat opens them all just fine and shows font properties correctly, but my Reader dies and asks for Japanese font packs. Please help, thank you!
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1910267/injection.pdf
This is a link to one of the 2 forms that is giving me trouble. It's simple, and was already created before my Acrobat reinstall, yet is now asking for Japanese fonts...
Edit: Forms were created using Livecycle Designer ES 2.5. I'm testing with Acrobat X and Reader X.

Thanks for your reply!
Ok, the form I linked, I actually only tested on my own machine, but had the Japanese font error so I assumed it held true for the new one as well. Here is the one I made today that has been tested on 4 computers (list below): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1910267/treatment_notes.pdf
These are the computers it was tested on:
My own computer (Windows 7, format/location set to English/US, default non-Unicode language Japanese, System Locale Japan) - pops up error in Reader X, but not Acrobat Pro X
These 3 computers are all set to complete English/US and do not have Acrobat:
The recipient's computer (not sure what OS, likely Reader X, no other languages installed) - popped up the error asking for Japanese fonts
My mother's computer (XP, Reader 9, I know it has Chinese installed, but I don't think it has Japanese) - no errors
My brother's computer (Vista, Reader 9, no other languages installed) - popped up the Japanese font error
And just for fun I tried on the HP Touchpad (Reader 10.3), but it just gives that error that it can't display the contents of the pdf. I think the WebOS port of Reader either is horribly incomplete somehow, or otherwise I have no idea.
I noticed the similar threads, but since they are unanswered, I thought I'd try again and see if I could get an answer. I've got my hands in the air at this point...

Microsoft apps for Nokia 500

Nokia 500 symbian belle w/ NFC support?

i wonder if i upgrade to symbian belle on my nokia 500, will it able to add NFC support? TY
Nokia user since 2004.
Owned 3310, 1100, 3300, 6600, 6300, 5310, 5130, N79, 5800.
Owns: 6230 (still alive) and 500....
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well the Nokia "Store" seems to think that the Nokia 500 has "NFC SUPPORT"... Please take a look at this link:
- http://store.ovi.com/content/209048?clickSource=search&pos=8
It clearly states there the folllowing:
- "Simply perform the NFC handshake with another Nokia 500, 600 or 700 to unlock content."
So I don't know if whoever posted it up was trying to mislead people who own the Nokia 500 into buying their application and make them think that the software will "enable" NFC on the device.... Or just a "typo"?
It probably was a marketing strategy..... "me thinks"...

Rotated ASCII characters overlap in Text Layout Framework with specific Japanese/Chinese fonts

I am trying to layout rotated text with Text Layout Framework. Mostly okay, but when it comes to specific Japanese/Chinese fonts, problem happens - "hankaku" alphanumeric characters(in other words, ASCII characters) overlap in those fonts. (Full-width "zenkaku" characters have no problem, though)
When "HG丸ｺﾞｼｯｸM-PRO" or "HG正楷書体-PRO" are specified as fontFamily(both come with Office - common fonts in Japanese Windows environment), characters are wholly overlapped.
When "SimSun", "NSimSun" or "SimHei" are specified as fontFamily(Chinese fonts, all come with Japanese Windows XP), characters are slightly overlapped.
If anyone knows a solution or a workaround to this, please let me know.

Not that I know of. Your problem is that you're loading the
content
dynamically, so you have no idea what it will contain.
There's normally
no need to embed Japanese fonts for a Japanese audience,
because they
already have the main fonts, such as Mincho, Gothic, or Osaka
on their
machine. Perhaps you'll just have to give up the idea of
rotation.

Can nokia 500 play angry Birds?

It runs on anna....will it b able to play a b?

The version of Angry birds for the Galaxy S has been coded differently to the version that runs on the Galaxy mini because of the different screen sizes and also processor speed and RAM and GPU.
If the Nokia 500 becomes a popular mobile phone, I'm sure Rovio may release a version of Angry birds for it. All we can do is wait and see.
All the best.

Will Nokia Belle Refresh Update come to Nokia 500 ...

It's known that Nokia Belle FP1 is available only for Nokia 603, Nokia 700 and Nokia 701 (and newer phones as well). Those devices that won't get the FP1 update are named '1st gen. S^3 devices' for all I know. That's what makes me say that Nokia 500 is a first generation S^3 device - because no massive updates will be available for it anymore.

Nokia 500 wi-fi problem

Hi all. My Nokia 500 can't find any wi-fi connection after Belle upgrade. It won't pass the "searching wi-fi network" message. Really don't know what to do since it should be a simple task. Any ideas?

Hi weblira
Welcome to Nokia forum!
Try doing a factory reset on your phone. Go to Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone management > Factory settings > Restore, if it will ask for a lock code use 12345 unless changed.
After the factory reset try to connect to WLAN again. If that will not help you to resolve the issue use Nokia Suite to re-install the software of your phone.
