Nokia 5800 and new V40 firmware

Just updated the firmware on my phone and have a minor problem.
When someone rings me and the phone is unlocked I can answer the call ok, but when the phone is locked and someone rings it says answer in green and unlock is blue, I am unable to answer the call until I unlock the the phone then tapping answer, answers the call, how can I answer the call without unlocking the phone?

You're the first person I've seen to complain about this.
Have you not noticed the following?:
a) it's an arrow you're shown, pointing to the right, which implies movement.
b) the arrow is animated in a left-to-right direction, also implying movement.
The arrow is not a button, it is a suggestion. Next time, try swiping the screen in the same direction as the arrow and in the same direction as the animation: from left to right.
There were dozens of threads about this when the feature first appeared on the N97 last year.
 You can also unlock the phone with the physical button on the right and it will take you to a more familiar view. It's like pressing the silence button, the call is still incoming but there's no ring.

  • Nokia 5800 and Ovi Suite Contacts Sync Changes Pic...

    Hi,
    I have a Nokia 5800 and just installed the latest Nokia Ovi Suite (2.0).
    It is a good tool, but I have a problem with the synching my contacts.
    Befor Ovi sync, I use to associate pictures from my gallery with contacts. When I dial the contacts the picture of the contact took up most of the screen (until the contact answers the call - then it makes the picture small and puts it in the speech bubble)
    After I sync'ed with Ovi Suite, the contact picture now shows up as a small - very small - thumbnail image during the call on the phone.
    Is there something that can be done to protect this from happening, or a setting that can be changed in Ovi to use a large picture instead of a thumbnail?
    My 5800 has the latest firmware installed (available to me in my country) - which is 31.0.101.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

      one more bump and then I give up on Ovi suite. Once again

    Hallo,

    Hi Bitshifter,
    Not sure what's happening to your wifi connection on the phone but I do think I have a solution to your two questions about the liveleak website and the Live TV app.
    Liveleak.com uses a flash player that is not compatible for the nokia phones, I checked it on my phone and it keep saying that I needed to upgrade my flash player. The nokia phones use flashlite which is not the same version as what most flash sites use and only can be viewed from a PC. The sites need to mobile content ready for you to view the content, youtube is mobile ready.
    The Live Tv app is viewing DVB-H, which is if the country your in does not have it up running, then not possible to use the app. Also on a side note, to the app you need the SU-33W.
    Hope this helps in answering some of the questions.

  • Nokia 5800 and AVRCP issues.

    Hi ,
    First of all I just regret having 5800 in the first place, I really pity nokia , they have lost all the respect I ever had for them.
    Starting with the problem I bought a Jabra BT3030 few days back to use it along with my nokia 5800, Nokia 5800 does support AVRCP profile ( atleast they have mentioned it on their website http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/specifications ) , 5800 ( Rev : 20.0.012 ) just fails to understand the remote play / pause / forward and backward tracks commands. Which I found to be working perfectly with Nokia E51/E71 and to my horror even the old N73 connects seamlessly.
    I have tried with two of 5800 handsets ( even both having the same colour :-) ) and no wonder they had the same problem , I am not sure of the firmware revision of the other handset , but it wont be greater than 20.0.012 for sure.
    I had mailed this to nokia support regarding the problem and following was their reply;
    "This e-mail is with regard to functionality of headset Nokia 5800. We regret the inconvenience caused. We would like to inform you that Nokia does not recommend the usage of non Nokia enhancement with Nokia product as it might hamper the optimal performance of the phone." 
    What a pity I must say, the people replying dont even understand the meaning of bluetooth standard's which have been written for AVRCP.
    Please advice if anyone elseis also facing the same problem and how should I tackle this.
    Thanks and regards,
    Mahendra

  • Nokia 5800 Screen Problems After Firmware Update V...

    Hi all,
    I have the Nokia 5800 navigation edition. I just updated the firmwareon it from V40. to the latest available 51.2.007. Doing so has turned the phone's screen into a huge mess - the lower half of the screen is all white and the upper half has some weired flickering and the icons(the ones that are visible) are all messed up too and some of them are not responding at all.
    Heres what I've done to resolve the problem:
    - remove the battery, memory and sim cards for a few hours.
    - reboot the phone without the memory card(eliminating any corrupt setup files).
    - reinstalled the V51.2.007 update several times using bothe the Ovi Suite and the older Nokia PC Suite updater.
    - tried running the updates on all XP, Vista and Windows 7.
    Can you please advise me of any other possible solutions I can try. Is there any way to revert back to the older firmware. The phone was working just fine before the update.
    Thank you all for your help.

    There is another way to hard reset your phone and it is as follows.
    With your phone powered off, press and hold Green  + Red + Camera Keys. Then power on phone using the on/off button whilst keeping the three keys depressed until you see the Nokia Shaking Hands Logo.
    Always remember to backup your phone before performing resets as your data may be lost.
    This reset will revert the phone to its out of the box state, so it will revert back to the original version of Maps that came with the phone. However, this should be an issue as you can easily redownload and reinstall the latest again.

  • Nokia 5800 XpressMusic - Device or Firmware proble...

    Hi guys,
    I got the phone on 17th Nov 2009. After two weeks, the phone hang and restart for no reason. And also all my data was gone from the memory card. I brought my device to Nokia Care to check and they upgraded my firmware to V31 (previous was V21). Everything seems okay to me except for the memory card. They did not do anything even though I have been promised will be getting new memory card. I thought that maybe with new firmware added, I will not be facing the same problem. But after few days later same problem occured. The device hang and restart for several time while I was connected to the internet. And again all my data in my memory card was gone. After that I discovered new firmware available (V40.00.05). I upgrade it on my own. I dial *#0000# and just follow the instruction given to update the firmware. Everything seems perfect. But after that, another problem appears. Somehow I unable to connect my phone as a modem. It shows the cable is not supported. But I able to transfer the data to my laptop. Before this no problem to connect my phone as modem. Any advice?
    Thanks

    -make a backup of the phone memory, excluding the phone settings (uncheck the box) using pc suite.
    -use this to re-update the phone (type the model in the search box and select it)  http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/download-software/device-software-update
    -after the update do this to reset the phone (it will delete everything from the phone memory only, not the memory card)
    1) With the phone turned off
    2) Press and hold [Green]  + [Red] + [Camera] Keys
    3) Keep pressing them while you turn the phone on until you see the nokia shaking hands Logo.
    After that the phone will be resetted to the firmware defaults. (if you have succeeded it you will see the "select country" list.
    -now restore the backup to the phone by following the programs instructions. Finished!
    Now you only have to change again the settings of the phone to adjust it in the way you like. If the problem still persist the memory card might be faulty, try to format it using the phone itself. (Note that you will lose all the data in it, try to take a copy of the photos, songs and some other of your stuff only to a pc, before you format. Leave the applications and other data which don’t “belong” to you alone)
    If you face the same problem again visit them again and explain them what you have done so far, and ask them to help you again!
    I think I helped!

  • I need help with my Nokia 5800 update to v40.0.005

    Hey im having trouble with updating my Nokia 5800 to v40.0.005.
    The version on my phone at the moment is v21.0.025 and when i try to update it on my phone it says no update available.
    I tried downloading Nokia Update Software and getting it from there but the program wouldnt work either.
    Is there any other way i can get the v40.0.005 were it should work? or even getting the knetic scrolling and applications without needing to get v40.0.005?
    Please need help!
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Under your battery, there's a product code on a sticker (X: 0586707). Go here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update and type in your productcode to see if there should be an update for your productcode. If there's not, you could take your phone to a Nokia Carepoint and ask if they could do it - no promises. Or else you have to wait untill your productcode gets it.

  • Nokia 5800 and iSync

    Hi,
    I would like to know when it is released plug-in to recognize the Nokia 5800 with iSync
    Thanks !
    Daniele

    There is no schedule. Apple hasn't added any new model support to iSync for over a year. They're leaving new phone support up to third-party iSync plugins.
    Try contacting one of the third-party iSync Plugin developers on the page below, to see if and when support for your phone will be available:

    Or type "nokia 5800 isync" into Google for some existing options.

  • Why the Nokia sms about new N97 firmware ?

    Can some please explain the SMS then ?

    I got an SMS when v12 was released (same with v11) but I've never had an email about firmware updates for my N97.  Seems mad that they'd email out promoting v12 with v20 literally round the corner.  Hopefully there won't be anything to delay it.

  • Nokia 5800 and older Symbian applications

    I've recently bought a 5800, and installed some freeware applications on it, allegedly compatible for this phone. After loading them, a "Soft-keypad" appears, which emulates the joystick + 2 main buttons of the older. There are other 4 buttons on the bottom, "A", "B", "C" and "D", which I've found emulating the "7", "9", "*" and "#". 
    Do you know of any other ways to emulate the remaining 8 digits "1", "2", etc.?
    I believe that the aim of this soft-keypad was to ensure compatibility with the older non-touchpad softwares, but at the least possible cost, and so its development has not been actually completed... :-(

  • Nokia 5800 restarting automatically after firmware...

    recently i had updated my firmware through phone itself,after that its getting restarted automatically once or twice in a day. Since the problem persists i reinstalled the s/w through system also.but the problem is still there ,can anybody help me

    hi, I had same problem when I upgraded my damned 5800 to version 50. At first after the upgrade, it was reseting once in 2-3 minutes. I decided to format sd card and after that reseting times reduced to twice a day espicially after sending sms. Changing the microsdhc card with an old one with 1 GB capacity, compeletely solved the problem. Yesterday I bought a brand new micro sdhc : Verbatim 8GB class 4; but its the problem : its not working well. its slow and while connecting to pc it causes some fault. but the restarting problem is solved. Please recommand me a good microsdhc card.
