Nokia 5800 with terrible slowness problem

I have a Nokia 5800. The device recently became very slow. The simple act of shutting down and restarting (detection range of a local network) take a period of several minutes long. Middle clicking on the menu appears, takes just a long time. What can I do to fix this.
It is important to note that the device is installed version 50.0.005

From what u tell it probably would help formatting it at some point. Note that this will delete everything on the card. Back up first.
Could you answer some of my above questions?
Meanwhile you could clear browser cache. Also an extreme amount of messages could slow down your phone if they're stored on the phonememory.

Nokia 5800 [ Screen and phone problems]

I got a problem with my nokia 5800 screen,
sometimes when my brightness is bellow 80% 2-3 flikering lines apear wherever i am ( home screen, watching a video, browser,call someone etc.)
when brightness is at 80% its normal always( maybe of the high brightness i may not see the lines)
however this is annoying and i want to know if i can do anything about it !
on top of that my phones shuts down suddenly on its own randomly!
the phone is functioning well running app without any problem and watching videos !

The 5800 is getting on in years now so it's definitely a hardware issue your facing. Your best bet is to visit a Nokia Care Point and see if it's worth the cost of repair otherwise you'd be better off getting a new phone.

Nokia 5800 freezes, needs restart - problem starte...

Hi there,
I think I have a fairly unique problem, but I hope someone here can help me.
I have a Nokia 5800 which is fantastic, apart from the very annoying problem that the phone will freeze and ultimately crash about 50% of the time when I flick the key lock after it has spent a bit of time on, but not being used (in stand by). I will press a button (e.g. to bring up the dialler, or even just the menu screen) and the phone will obviously register the command (tactile response, and button will highlight), but not respond. If I leave it, it *might* eventually load, but any further inputs are met with the same overly sluggish response. It basically becomes unusable, and I have to switch it on and off again. If I have tried to press too much, ultimately even the on/off button won't respond, so I have to remove the battery. Once the phone is started up again, it's fine - until the same thing happens again about an hour later. As I'm sure you can understand, this makes the phone totally unreliable, and therefore not much good at its core function of being a phone!
This started happening the evening after my number was ported from O2 to Orange. I thought it was the phone itself, so I put the factory settings back on, then updated the firmware, and still I suffered the same problem. I took the handset back to the shop I bought it from, and got it exchanged for a brand spanking new handset today. I got it home and....same problem. V20 firmware was pre-installed on the new handset.
I am now thinking that this problem could be related to the number port - the week and a half before I did this, I had no problems with the phone whatsoever. I just wondered if anyone had any further insight on this, and if it's even possible for a number port to stop a handset working correctly?? Any suggestions or ideas are extremely welcome, this is driving me mad!
Many thanks.

Hmm. From what you've described, it doesn't seem to be related to the number port/SIM card.
If you press and hold the middle button (menu key), what applications do you see running?
The symptoms you described is quite new to me and I haven't had that happen on my 5800.
My next thought would be something new that's been installed. On both the original and replaced phone, were there applications, video files, or something that you installed after you got the phone? Include applications from either from Download! or external sites.
Does your phone come with pre-installed software from your network, i.e. a network variant?There are variants in the phone software customised to the network's specifications. In general, I find that a lot of major complaints about software issues tend to come from phones which have been customised by networks.
Unless someone else can come up with an idea, you could try the steps below (some of which you tried already, but can always try again):
1. Reboot your phone: Switch the phone off. Take out the battery. Wait a few minutes. Put it back in and switch the phone on.
2. Restore original phone settings: It will be under phone settings or type *#7780# in your phone's standby mode. No data will be lost, but you will reset all your phone's settings back to the default.
3. Hard reset: AKA the 3 finger reset. [not applicable for version 11. It's for 20.0.012 and presumably higher], you do a hard reset with the phone off and pressing the following buttons at the same time -- green "call" key, red "end call" key and camera button.
NOTE: Step 3 will remove all personal content and data added after the original default state. So you might want to do a backup using Nokia PC Suite's Backup application and/or backup to your memory card before you do any of those steps.
Otherwise, you may want to go back to your dealer (if it's still an option) or take your phone to be assessed at your Nokia Service Centre.

Nokia 5800 with Greek letters

Hey all,
I'm hoping to buy a new phone sometime in the next week or so. I have been looking at the Nokia 5800 however there's a minor setback. Because I live in Australia, the languages are usually Asian languages and English. The problem is, I do part time translating and quite often have to message friends in Greece for help, and it's a pain writing in "Greeklish."
Does anybody know if:
A. The Australian version comes with Greek
B. If not, is there a way to install a Greek character keyboard
I've used Nokia for the last 8 years and I really don't wnt to change for something so minor, but I may not have a choice.
Anybody know the answer?
Thanks! =)

A. It does not come with greek installed on the Australian version of the phone.
B. You can get the language added at a nokia care point, for a small fee. Ask at your nearest before purchase to ensure that they can do it for you.
You cannot add it yourself.

Nokia 5800 not receiving texts problem!

Hi guys Bought the Nokia 5800 about 2 weeks ago and all has been fine with it until recently.....
Ive done no modifications of upgrades or played about with any of the settings..
But now for some reason im not receiving text messages when they are sent??
The only way I can get them is by either sending one, turning my phone off then back on or by going into message settings and selecting view sim messages then the message will pop up....
But I have to do this everytime which is quite annoying! I can do everything else fine....send messages, ring people receive calls etc.
Ive rang vodaphone and 5 times they have fobbed me off with different things to try and none have worked....Ive tried the hard reset and still nothing!
Is anybody else having this problem, or does anyone know a solution to fix it?
Thanks

I haved the same problem and I think I solved it, and it works (right now and hopefully also in future).
I have 5800XM with latest firmware upgrade - V30.0.011
THIS IS NOT NEEDED BUT USEFULL
Connect your phone (with phone battery loaded on full) to PC. Make backup of your phone data. Menu START, Nokia, Nokia Ovi, Content Copier
If you have V20 or V21... *#0000# - select this combination as a phone number to check what version do you have. If you have V20 you can update firmware to V21 via NSU (Nokia Software Updater). All international language versions beside English are corrupt (last week I checked, maybe something changed) so better use English version because it's always latest, fresh etc. ALWAYS read what NSU talk to you on the screen.
If you have already V21, update to V30 you can do only from phone. You must have access to stable WIFI connection (because file to download is something like 5MB size) and phone battery loaded on full. I'm using Polish language so I don't know how it's named in English but... Press middle button twice, go to Preferences, go to Phone and find icon with arrow ("Phone management" or something like that) then phone icon with arrow straight down - this is responsible for firmware update.
THIS IS IMPORTANT IF YOU ARE AFTER FIRMWARE UPDATE (OR IF YOU HAVE BASIC FIRMARE VERSION) AND DON'T GET NEW MESSAGE INDICATION AND/OR NEW SMS SOUND INDICATION
Press middle button twice, go to Preferences, go to Phone and find icon with arrow - "Phone management" or something like that, then pure phone icon - "Factory settings" or something like that. Some window arrive, click OK. This is not hardcore format, you don't loose anything.
After this operation you will have "clean screen" like straight from factory, so if you haved before little "tuned" screen and overall phone (added phonebook contacts from SIM card, selected wallpaper, different profile etc.)... you know what to do - tune it again. ;PP
I tested it. On different profiles (General, Outside - one hella loud profile on 5800 speakers, better don't use it rooms where silent is needed xD), with upcoming sms when screen was active, with upcoming sms when screen was locked - indication works with the sound!
Turning on/off phone registry logging (incoming/outgoing connections, sms etc.) got nothing to do with solving this problem.
Have hope it helps someone... This is for 5800 but what I see also other Nokia models have the same problem so maybe other users find this post usefull too.

Seeburger EDI Adapter with terrible performance problems

Hi,
we installed seeburger edi adapter on PI 7.1 and we have terrible performance problems:
We have a mail sender adapter polling a mail account.
Till the message is visible inside integration engine it takes sometimes 1-2 minutes or longer.
We already tuned the j2ee-engine and checked the DB-indexes (there are some OSS Notes) - no success.
We think that the problem is inside the DB-tables of Seeburger an that some indexes are missing (Oracle DB).
Any ideas?
Thanx
regards
Wolfgang Hummel

Hi,
I think in PI 7.1 SAP installed their own Java-VM (compatible with Sun 1.5) - is it true?
Do you have the same performance problems inside the adapter?
The adapter is like a black hole and it take sometimes one hour till you can see a message inside the integration engine (sxmb_moni).
Regards
Wolfgang

Nokia 5800 With a Capacitive Screen..

" South East Asian models of the smartphones have already received the update and the rest of the world should follow soon. There are also rumours that the firm will update the 5800XM with a capacitive touchscreen which will improve navigation and responsiveness greatly."
( Extracted from - Click HERE )
and lots of other sites are talking about the same as well...
More Confirmation ( Click Here )
Don't you feel a bit ripped off with this...You buy a brand new one and within a couple of month they release another version of the same model with a capacitive Screen. Sucks man...I feel like I am a Guinea Pig, They checked if we would love the phone, We did, and now they are upgrading.

Two options are better than one, namely, lock screen manually or automatically. Is it an impossibility?
Am not sure about your requirement (..sorry, did not understand it)..but on Nokia 5800xm you can either automatically lock the screen after a pre defined period..or simply keep it Unlocked infintely. Menu-->Settings-->Phone-->Phone Management-->Auto Keyguard..set the period to User defined or None as you desire...But, even with this set to None.. the display will go out between 5 and 60 seconds max. (..again user defined) ..Menu-->Settings-->Phone-->Display-->Light time-out ...
...and further check THESE applications ...

Nokia 5800 with Route66 Mobile 7 for S60 V2/3

Hello,
I have Route 66 Mobile 7 S60 V2/3 installed at a new Nokia 5800.(it comes from my older Mobile N80i)
The software Route66 start up very well but can handle the touchscreen of the Nokia 5800.
Is there an possibilty that the Nokia 5800 can work with mine Route 66 version.
Route66 said that you need S60 V5, but maybe somebody knows an other solution.
Thx

What do you mean lie? This is not a tech forum. This is a user-to-user forum. Posting here comments or suggestions regarding what you want for the next firmware is unlikely to reach the software developers simply because they dont go here. Even if they do, its rarely. We arent Nokia Employees
2. Radio Freeze - running my radio now for 10min. Still isnt freezing.
3. My mp3's have tags. They're all correct. Maybe the program you're using for tagging is not compatible?
4. This I dont understand. I thought you said Navigation? We're talking about Ovi Maps when you refer to navigation right?
5. Hmm, cant say I noticed. Whenever I clear browser cache, memory size goes back to what it was before. Well, at least IMO this works fine for me.
6. What's wrong with using that program to clean?
8. Why bother putting factory application when there's free out there? Would only make the cost of making the phone bigger.
9. I'll try to check this. I usually use Opera Mobile and Skyfire because they have flash support. I think if you have enough free RAM you might be able to play facebook games here.
10. Hmm, ok I'll try to connect to Ovi store for longer than 30min to see if it crashes. have you updated Ovi store yet?
11. Uh, how much free memory do you have on C anyway? I have like 37mb free, and it's pretty fine. Cache cant eat all of those in a week.
Anyway, I think your phone has bugs. it seems that the APAC firmware has bugs. I'm on Euro version.

Nokia 5800 with Ford fiesta

I have just got a new fiesta with bluetooth and recently got a nokia 5800.
I tried to set the phone up so that i could have it handsfree in my car, they paired fine and i can dial through my car but once i try to call someone it doesn't come through the car speakers it stays as a handset call.
The phone shows the bluetooth connection with a car symbol in the corner.
I have tried the car with a different phone and it worked first time so it is definately my phone.
The ford site says that the 5800 is compatable so why wont it work??

RM-428 is the North American version. They use different frequency bands over there so your 5800 will not work on 3g in Europe and most of the rest of the world. It should however work in GSM mode.

Nokia 5800 with 32gb card?

Has anyone tried the 5800 with a bigger card than 16gb? There are some romours that it can handle bigger cards...

In theory it can handle 32gb (and even larger like all S60's that support SDHC) but they are not commercially available yet so it is unknown. I read somewhere last month that a 32gb preproduction card had been found to work on nokia S60 phones that support SDHC but no specific details were mentioned.
All you can do is wait until the cards go on sale then check blogs and forums for people using them. Nokia will not officially confirm in advance if they are compatible or not.

Nokia 5800 Touch Screen unique problem

Hi
My 5800 is showing some unique problems these days.
If i click the telephone key on the touch panel the contact keys gets pressed.
And this happens acroos all applications.Tried reset, hard, soft everything but not got the solution.
If anyone has please do share as this is taking on my nerve.

It's not unique because other people have had the same issue.
It happened on my device when I took it apart and put back together and tightened the screws too much. It has something to do with the connector connecting the display's touch sensor to the phone electronics.
Loosening the screws helped.
(I took it apart to install some non-Nokia covers on it which might not have the exactly same dimensions as the original ones. By the way some non-Nokia covers have a ridiculous design flaw which reflects the light from the LED flash right into the camera module and ruins all photos taken with a flash!)

Nokia 5800 expressmusic e mail problem

Ok - I'm probably not being very clever, but I have recently acquired a N5800 and have all my e mails sent thru to me by Nokia mail. Problem is I can't reply to them or send out e mails as they all get sent back un-delivered. Don't know if its related, but I can't open attachments to e mails either. My e mail address is talktalk.net which is working as normal on my pc.
Any suggestions please?
