Nokia 5800 - FM Radio Issue

Hi
Couple of months back I upgrade my Nokia 5800 to V40. After that, i have started having peculiar problem with the FM Radio. Radio plays fine...but when I keep switching the different saved stations, at one point it just HANGS. No keys on my phone / hands free work and the only option left for me would be remove the battery and reboot the phone.
Appreciate if somebody can let me know what could be causing this problem.
Regards
Vijay

I found a funny solition for this. But ıt is working. Thisis the things what i did:
Restart my 5800.
Open bluetooth.
Connect to the Nokia suit.
After that open my radio on 5800.
Setup the frequency to the radio which ı know have RDS. POWER FM 102.95
and it worked.
My radio still runing with RDS and no problem with phone.
I know it is not best way but now we just have this. Also this mean this radio problem is software based and i think nokia has the solution but waiting. For what???
! photos from working RDS Radio And freezed Radio.

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

Issues with updating my NOKIA 5800 XM

Hi all,
I don't know, whether this topic has been already covered, but I haven't found anything suitable for me. Here's the problem. I have a NOKIA 5800 XM and I want to update its' firmware to v30.0.011. However the standard procedure to update it using my phone did not succeed - while checking for the new update, an error appears, saying "Connection error" (i am using OMNITEL Lithuania). However, the last time I was updating my Nokia, everything was ok doing it this way. The other point is, I have a MAC, and when i tried to update using Nokia Software update using my friend's PC, i did not succeed - there were errors as well. So, can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance

I have a similar problem. My 5800's clock is very slow. It falls behind by maybe up to 3 hours per day. I have to continually correct the time all day. Today I was correcting the time when the phone gave me an error message and I lost all of my videos and photos. Luckily my contacts and messages were not lost. I was hoping a Firmware update would solve the bugs with this very frustrating phone. No luck. I installed the Nokia PC Suite and the Updater doesn't work. I always get an error message and whatever Internet Explorer wants to open fails. I then loaded Nokia Software Updater and continually get a disconnection error message. I've been trying all afternoon. This website is very slow and frustrating as well. After having been a Nokia user for many, many, many years. I can't help but be unbelievably disappointed with my new phone. If anyone can help with the Firmware Update issue. It would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Nokia 5800 XM failed firmware update/GPS issues

Hello.
I'm currently having issues with my Nokia 5800. Firstly whenever attempting to update the firmware through the Nokia Ovi Suite, it fails with an "Error in the software update package configuration" error. I've read around on the forums, and I've noticed that other people have had a similar problem, but no real answer was given other than "I solved it, but I won't bother telling you how". There must be other ways to update the Nokia firmware than just relying on the Ovi Suite.
Also my GPS on the phone never manages to get a signal, no matter how much in the open I am. I'm assuming that this is probably due to the fact that I haven't updated the firmware, but if anyone else has any ideas why this is happening feel free to let me know!
Cheers

Hi, I was having the same problem but I found that if you use the Nokia Software Updater rather than the Ovi Suite it installs fine!
Hope this helps!

Feature request for radio on Nokia 5800

I sent some suggestions regarding Radio directly to Nokia but I'd like to post this request there as well so I can see what users think about this.
Also I'd like to know how many radio stations are available in your city. I have access to 27 stations but Nokia 5800 can store only 20 stations.
The original feature request is posted below. I made 2 mistakes but developers should be able to understand anyway.
1. The station list shouldn't display empty slots: there is no point in having gaps in the list and it makes the list longer even if some slots aren't used. The last slot should be displayed and named as "Add station"/"Empty" so user could add a new station at the end of list.
2. Add some basic functionality for organizing stations: "Sort by name", "Sort by frequency", "Move up", "Move down". The last two should be buttons rather then menu items so it would be easier to move station around.
3. Phone supports up to 20 stations and I have 27 stations in my city. It should be hard [note: I meant "should not be hard"] to increase this limit to 4294967296(2^32-1)[note: actually 4294967295]. It's not like we have to reserve space for these stations in advance and the list won't be filled with unused slots.
4. It would be nice to see RDS on Home Screen.
5. I have updated to V40.0.005 and RDS doesn't work anymore. Also Radio occasionally becomes frozen.
See /t5/Software-Updates/Nokia-5800-updated-to-V40-0-005-Radio-RDS/m-p/607102

This is a user to user forum so it is unlikely that anyone from Apple will see your post.
Try using "Provide iTunes feedback" on the iTunes help menu.
You can drag radio stations into a regular playlist if you want to keep ones you like together.

Nokia 5800 - calendar issue

The alarm for calendar events on my phone has suddenly stopped working. Instead of my phone alerting me of a todo note, it says "alarm missed due to time change" (or words to that effect) when I open the calendar after the alarm was due.
Multiple restarts haven't solved this issue. Anyone have any ideas?
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

Yes, but I've had the phone for 2 months now and automatic time update has always been turned on, this problem only started a few days ago.
I'll try turning auto update off and see if that helps, thanks

Nokia 5800 screen issue!!help!

hey guys,i bought my nokia 5800 somewhere in december last year.and a couple of days ago,i began to realize that there were moving vertical lines across the screen.the lines are most visible when my light sensor(intensity) settings is set at 75%.it only came to my attention when i hard resetted my phone 2 days ago and the intensity settings was reverted to its default 75%(i've kept it customized at 25% until 2 days ago).the moving vertical lines are less visible in darker backgrounds and at a lower light intensity.i was just wondering-is this normal??has anyone been experiencing this?is there a fix to this?
p/s:this issue is different compared to the previous 'slider+screen lines' issue. the moving lines on my screen is constantly present.locking and unlocking the phone bears no effect whatsoever on the lines.
Thanks!

I think I am having the same issue as yourself, it just started recently and I just bought it in April. As you stated this is not the other common screen issue where after unlocking the phone those bars show up across the screen. These are thin lines that cant be seen from far away, it is only when you look closely that they become obvious (they just keep moving vertically across the screen). I have a pure black theme on and I cannot notice them but when I use a lighter theme or use any application with any other color it becomes very apparent.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Nokia 5800 and Ego Talk connected no radio and no ...

Hallo,

Normaly my phones ( all Nokia) connects and I can still here and use the radio and cd player but now with the 5800 there is a perfect connection and I can and use my phone but there is no radio or cd working. Can annybody help me please??:womansad:

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 earphone issue

hiii i,m using nokia 5800 xpressmusic from a long time
the problem i,m facing is when i connect my earphones to it then it says tv out connected can you please help me out

arshadk786,
May I kindly ask what headphones are you using to connect your 5800 with?
Go to Menu> Settings> Phone> Accessories > Try setting "headphones/headset" as the default. Also try inserting the headphone jack half-way until the phone says headset connected, then insert it fully afterwards.
If that doesn't help, either the headphone socket contains dirt or became faulty.
Good luck

Nokia 5800 Social Network and Internet/Email conce...

Having owned the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic for a couple of months or so, I must say that I really like the phone and it has great functionality.
My main concerns/issues however are outlined below:
1. Facebook for Nokia app is slow, does not show all of the functions that m.facebook.com shows and isn't a homescreen widget (e.g. push notifications)
2. Communities app is even slower and again does not have the functionality of m.facebook.com and doesn't show notifications at all!
3. The Nokia Messaging app insists on connecting to 3G all the time, rather than a wifi connection when available. I've also experienced intermittent issues when trying to connect (sometimes it stays offline and even selecting 'Go online' doesn't wake the program up).
4. Default web browser keeps crashing and doesn't support larger websites (I experience intermittent crashes as well as memory issues). I do not receive such issues in Opera Mobile. I also dislike the defaulting to full screen mode all the time. If you turn full screen off, as soon as you navigate to a different page it goes back to full screen again, therefore increasing the activity on the phone and it takes longer to load the page before you can scroll or click another link.
I think I've covered all of my main concerns but in essence this device really needs better app support and social networking integration.
I would be grateful if I could be given an update on if/when we can expect to receive such support.
If anyone else agrees, please indicate below along with any additional feature requests relating to this topic.
Thank you for your time in reading this post.

bump
Same issues here, facebook is almost unuably slow (it's quicker to boot up the laptop!)
Messeging will not use wifi and i have a limited data plan so can't use it for attachments.
Web browser randomly exits for no reaseon and the lack of width adjustment is infuriating
Now ovi store's won't let me download!

Nokia 5800 connected to WLAN but can't browse the ...

wassup! peeps.
recently I can't browse the web or use any free messaging apps such as Nimbuzz on my nokia 5800 (fw version 21.0) finland made, but clearly indicates that it's connected to WLAN...the ones I used before (in my home & @ my work).
I noticed it started when I was waiting for a video in youtube to finish buffering, then halfway to it it suddenly went back to my main screen. when i tried again, same thing happens. then i try to log-in to facebook or any website... first it will give the impression that its connecting but then, juz a couple of seconds or less, it willl suddenly revert back to my phone home screen.
this started a couple of weeks back, and now the bluetooth too is f***ed-up!
because my laptop can't see it, while yesterday it can.
it seems that mines the first one with this kind of problem bcoz i can't find any forum discussing this issue.
anyone who can help will be worshiped forever...thanx!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You could also try to clean privacy data inside the browser, and reset your device by taking out the battery for a couple of min and set it back again.
Last resort: Soft reset it by dialling *#7370# (this will delete contacts, messages and everything else on C, so make a backup using PC suite) and do a format of the memorycard. - Then you start out with a fresh device.

Nokia 5800 Xpress Call Waiting notification

Hello all
I have problem with my nokia 5800 xpress.
the problem about call wating.
when i call someone he call to another we usually see in all other models a notification "call waiting" to be know the person we are calling to is busy talking with another
nokia 5800 xpressmusic doesnt show this notification "call waiting"
this problem causes many problem for me.
that i think that the person that i callig dont want to answer me
but the truth he is talking to some one in his phone.
i have my nokia 5800 since firmware v50.x i think that nokia will solve this problem in the next firmware but didn't solved in v 51.x and waiting for new firmware and now updating my phone to the last firmware but not solved too.
pls any one have a solution reply me.
sorry for my english not good
i hope to understand me.
thanx alot

furthermore if the reciever doesn't want to recieve ur call, he may let ur call ring through and through, in which case u'll hear ringing and at the end u'l hear a voice sayin tht the person isn't pickin up ur fone plz try later.. OR there he may reject ur call, in that case u'l 1 or 2 rings and then a voice tellin the prsn u r tryin to reach is busy, etc..
Of course these vary accordin to network..
Well in any case it's a network issue not a handset issue..
Check with ur network.
What say farby?

Dr. Shoubhik
