Nokia 5800 v31 calendar alarm fail

HI!
I have upgraded my 5800 xm to v31.
Now i have the clock bug, the alarm always goes off 3 or 4 minutes after the hour i expected.
Worst than that is that every time i set a calendar alarm it doesn't do anything! When i go to calendar it says:
"1 or more calendar alarms failed due to hour change"
Does anyone have the same problem? Is there a way out?
Best regards
Sandgrain

There has also been cases of users changing snooze time from 5 to 10 min ( just the changing, whatever time you set it to) and solves the alarm for a little while. The bug is totally random.
My first 5800 on v30 had this issue - did a reset and it fixed the alarm for about 4 days before it continued to go off a couple of mins late. My second 5800 on 31 did not have it the first 3 weeks untill one night... You might be lucky or you might not be. It's totally random so chanchans advice getting a 3rd party alarm would be the thing. V40 solves it.

Calendar alarm fails to run Automator script if Mac is sleeping

I have an Automator script to run a backup task which is saved as a Calendar alarm to run once every week.
This was working perfectly in Snow Leopard - if the computer was asleep at the alarm time, then it would simply run the next time the computer is woken up.
Then I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and had various issues. First, the alarm got imported to iCloud and caused unwanted pop-up alerts on all my iOS devices, but I resolved that by moving the alarm's calendar from "iCloud" to "On My Mac" (described here).
Now I'm finding that if the computer is asleep at the alarm time, the script doesn't run at all.
I don't want the computer to wake up in order to run the script, but to run the next time the computer is woken up, just like it did on Snow Leopard.
Is this a known difference in behaviour between Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion, and is there any way to get the old behaviour?

As no-one has confirmed whether this is expected behaviour or a bug, I've assumed it is a bug and raised a bug report at http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html.
In the meantime, I've created a repeating task in my To Do list app to remind me to run the backup script once a week (I'm using Cultured Code "Things" for task management).
When the task pops up, I run the Automator workflow MANUALLY by double-clicking on the workflow ".app" file.
It seems insane, but this is the only way I can be sure the Automator script runs once a week.

Nokia N95 8Gb Calendar alarm default setting

I have searched high and low here and in the user manual however, have not found the answer to my query, so I hope you will forgive me if this topic has been covered before.
I use the Calendar extensively to remind myself of appointments and birthdays etc. When making a new entry I choose Meeting and go through the process of creating that new entry entering the Subject, Location, Start time, End time, Start Date, End date and when you get to the Alarm setting is is set to the default of OFF. I want to know if this can be changed to Default to ON. It is driving me a little crazy that, as you are setting something to remind you, surely the alarm default should be ON.
Please stop me from going crazy...
Thanks
Oldrose52

The reason the alarm is defaulted to off, is that you can set your calender to homescreen and see meetings and to do notes, plus if it's a meeting the alarm probably needs to be set prior to the meeting ( so you have time to get there). If it was set automatically to say 30 minutes before, it wouln't really help if you were 2 hrs away. Besides which it takes about a second to turn it on !
Good Luck

A strange mp4 problem - nokia 5800

I just bought a new phone - nokia 5800, V31.0.101
I can't play any of my mp4 files. Even the original ones. It shows me a white screen with some blinking lines. I can nearly see the video I want to watch. Too many blinking things etc. I tried to record an mp4 video, same. I can record it but when I want to play it, I see that white screen.

Hi, if you can't play pre-installed films or video tken by the phone, and you just bought it, then I would return it and insist on replacement/repair . The phone could work correctly with a software update or a hard reset, but if it's a brand new phone you shouldn't be having to do this. Contact your supplier and insist on a solution, try for replacement. 5800 is a good media phone and sounds like you've been unlucky .
Good Luck

I called technical support for mobile phones, unfortunately it is unavailable according to the recording, i've waited for i think its wrong, but nothing happened the call dropped.
The current software version is V31.0.101, Software version date: 16-09-2009, type: RM-356 and it does not upgrade. I have tried using my phone options to upgrade/update the software, this did not work, i have tried using the Nokia Software Updater but it can not find the new version of the software, and I have tried searching for the new software version by using my phone code under the battery and still it can not find the new software version.

NOKIA 5800
Mobile Issues
The phone touch screen is not very responsive.
Limited setting/shortcut you can set on the main screen.
Alarm is inconsistent. Sometimes it’s late.
Clock settings/time zone is not working properly.
The charger port on the phone is a bit loose. Charging gets interrupted even if there is only little movement.
Option is to update NOKIAs 5800 software. Current version is V31.0.101, the latest version is V40.0.005.
Nokia PC Suite / Nokia Software Updater cannot find the update
Tried to use the mobiles code, still cannot find the update
My mate has the same mobile NOKIA 5800 on a Virgin Mobile plan; he was able to update the software. I got images of his phone and my phone with different versions, mine was the old version his got the new 40.0.005 His mate has the same phone as well, which they manage to update the software. He tried helping me update the software, but ended up unable to update the software and got frustrated.
Option is to speak with TeleChoice Barrack Street. After TeleChoice checked the phone why it will not upgrade they suggested having the phone serviced/checked by Nokia Care in Morley.
I let Nokia have a look at the mobile/issue, they told me they will be able to update the software for me, I left my mobile with them, and after 3 business days and the going back and forth to Nokia, and they were unable to update the software. Very sadly, they said it’s being locked by Optus.
I am using 3 as my provider, the mobile I bought it outright from TeleChoice, no plan whatsoever. So I don’t understand why Nokia said it is being locked by Optus.
The option provided for me is to patiently wait for updates, which is available now or to return the product.
Now I am processing a replacement of the device from TeleChoice 10/02/03, hoping to have the issue rectified. They should rectify this, or there will be a violation againts fair trading.

Nokia 5800 alarm bug auto-fix!

My Nokia 5800 (UK)
0575581
v30.0.011
Had the workdays alarm bug. The alarm would sound 3 minutes late.
But after the daylight saving automatic update the bug has disappeared.
My Date and time settings:
Time zone: Local Time
Automatic time update: On
I hope this helps.

It is in fact pretty random. The change back to GMT didn't cure the problem for me and the alarm still goes off late. The phone also switches late out of a programmed profile and the scheduled backup sometimes doesn't happen at all.
The update to V31 is reputed to fix this issue - if ever we get it for our UK CV handsets.

Greece Nokia X6 RM-559 v40.0.002

Hi,
I have gotten my Nokia 5800 to work in all connection types.
Firstly, I had updated my phone to the latest firmware available to me via NSU (v31.0.101), and made a back up of my contacts and memory card.
1. Uninstalled Nokia PC suite, Cable driver, and PC connectivity (might not have got the exact names right).
2. Ran the Nokia PC suite cleaner.
3. Restarted the PC.
4. Formatted the memory card.
5. Did a hard reset on the phone (green button + red button + camera button - until country selection pops up during the power up of the phone)
6. Installed Nokia PC suite (latest version).
7. Connected the 5800 to the PC in the default connection, and let all the drivers install.
All the drivers, including the MTP USB device driver installed successfully. To be on the safe side, I changed the connection type from the phone toall the different connections to make sure it installed.
Also run the app update application first before restoring backups and re-installing applications.
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks.

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?

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

Actually, it has nothing to do with locking to their network. That's a totally different problem altogether that's independent from the branding.
What's happening here is altering the firmware so that it contains Three's logo and links to some of their services in the menu. Plus maybe a few alterations to maintain compatibility with the network, although they should be minor since unbranded phones will work on Three.
The trouble with making these alterations to updated firmware is that it takes time and therefore money to do it, and they get nothing in return. That's why it's such a low priority for network operators to approve updates.

Foursquare "Smart" Installer Fails on Nokia 5800

Hi there,
My foursquare application stopped working on my Nokia 5800 Xpress Music so I removed it with the intention of reinstalling it.
It turns that a new version of foursquare is available - running on Qt and requiring Nokia's "smart" installer to install it. However, when the installer gets to "Installing 2 of 6" it fails and gives the message "Installation Failed" followed by "To continue this installation later, select this icon in your application menu".
I have Googled and Googled and haven't managed to find a solution that doesn't require me to install a modified version of Symbian. Nothing else, including uninstalling and reinstalling the installer has worked.
Any help would be appreciated.

@jaredc
What firmware version is your 5800Xm running, key in *#0000# on dialler?
Although it would be a complete pain needing to backup all essential data you could always reset device to "Out of box" state and try installing desired application before restoring any data to device.

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!
