  • Nokia 5230 v40.0.003 - Contacts Bar Missing

    Hi there, thanks for reading.
    I have a problem with my Nokia 5230. I've had my phone about 9 months, and I've been very happy with it. Today I finally got round to installing the v40.0.003 firmware update.
    All went well except...
    Ovi Maps not updating (which I can live with)
    The contact bar disappearing from the home screen (which I can't)
    Searching the net found a few people with the same problem, but no solutions. I've seen mention of the appearance of the contact bar 'changing' but no definition of what this change actually is.
    Here's what I've tried so far:
    I checked the home-screen settings, it's still on the contacts bar theme and contacts bar is checked on the relevant screen.
    I've tried changing to another theme and back, both with and without restarting the phone.
    I've tried reinstalling the new firmware.
    I've tried a soft reset
    I've tried a hard reset
    I've even tried a hard reset without the sd card followed by a re-flash.
    I restored the full backup from before the update, which put most things back the way they were before the resets, but the contacts bar is still missing.
    It's a feature of the phone I use a lot so I'm not happy about losing it.
    If anyone can offer suggestions as to what I might have missed, I'd appreciate it. Just hope I'm not S.O.L until the next firmware update. (If it's relevant, I'm on Orange PAYG, and have access to my Fiancé's 5230 which is still on 20.0.005)
    Thanks

    Yes, the Menu>settings>personal>home screen>home screen theme is set to contacts bar
    in Menu>settings>personal>home screen>home screen both contacts bar and shortcuts boxes are checked.
    Prior to v40 I had a total of 5 contacts stored on the contacts bar and have been using it ever since i got the phone last year.
    I wish it was as simple as needing to turn it on, but I did undertake basic troubleshooting (and more) before starting this thread as my first post shows.
    I'm not the only one with this problem on orange either (x6 but same symptom)
    /t5/Xseries/x6-contacts-bar-gone-software-prob/m-p/873775/highlight/true#M7504
    Orange include their own fugly homescreen theme in their custom firmware so probably don't care if they break the other ones.
    My Fiancé has a 5230 as well, she doesn't use the contact bar (so wouldn't care if it went AWOL) so I might upgrade her firmware as well to see if the same thing happens.

  • Nokia 5230/5233 equalizer settings?

    I have nokia 5233 v40.1.003..
    The problem is that i have HCL earphones, for which i use some miscellaneous equalizer settings in music player for best sound output...
    But when i open real player or video center and play a video, it uses "NORMAL" settings by default and continues to till i have music player minimized and running in background with desired eqalizer selected..
    Isnt there any equalizer settings for real player? or any other way so that i can make a setting default for videos??

    ok.. too bad 4 me..
    is der any other video player for s60v5 that plays 640p videos flawlessly..( ofcourse wid equalizer settings, i have smartmovie, but it runs only 320p vids smoothly, 640p lags..)..

  • V40.0.003 (I Think) Update not found (NOKIA 5230)

    On my nokia 5230 i cannnot find the new update V40.0.003. So i can use the nokia IM. and the better web browser.
    please help
    the version is on v20.0.005

    Reasons why a phone cannot update:
    1. It is a country variant - country variants often get the updates later, or have updates skipped altogether. A Turkish country variant product code for example, skipped v40 and updated from v31 straight to v50.
    2. It is network branded - phones acquired from network providers or these providers' stores SIM free are branded, and will not get updates until the networks approve and modify the updates to their liking.
    3. Special editions - These special editions are chartered editions and may never get updates unless taken to a Nokia Care center.

  • Bug in theme effects-Nokia 5230

    Dear friends, I'm using Nokia 5230 for an year. I noticed a bug with theme effects after update to v21.x.x and this bug is not recovered by Nokia upto v40.x.x. The bug is when you press Options then You will see an option call "Show open apps. *" the star symbol is covered by white background(square) instead of black background(square), it is very annoying, it happens only when theme effects are set to on.
    I found the same problem with my friend's new 5230.

    Nokia should release a update to fix this. It happend after the update to v21.x.x.
    How to report this to Nokia software developers.

  • No brightness adjuster in nokia 5230 new update 40...

    how to change or adjust brightness in nokia 5230 new update.... i dont find brightness option in new update... reply asap... i do know the old settings wher brightness option was in settings->phone->display. but nw i dont find the brightness option in the new update...

    it wants a usb connection because it writes directly to the memory where the firmware is installed.
    since you don't have a usb cable, you can go to a Nokia Care center and ask them to update to the new firmware.

    I have created a backup from my Nokia 5230 some time ago using Nokia Suite, but now the program doesn't recognize the phone, but the pc does. and I haave accepted the Ovi Suite Mode in the phone. 

    @Louropt
    As farby points out if you have updated Nokia Suite it might need to establish conection again but nothing fundamentally wrong with 5230 connectivity as per screenshots:

  • How to connect my Nokia 5230 to internet using Blu...

    I would like to be able to connect my mobile (Nokia 5230) to internet without using the GPRS connection.
    The only option I can see, is to connect my mobile to my PC (which has an internet connection) via bluetooth or USB and share the pc internet connection with my mobile.
    How can I do that?
    I would like to use OVI store but the only option is "Send to Mobile" It seems that it is not possible to download a file on the PC and then send it to the mobile . If I coudl share my PC internet connection with my mobile I will be in a position where I could use OVI store
    I found this post at,

    What you're asking is not possible. There was a piece of software called GNUBox that might have done the trick but it seems to be more or less abandoned.
