Nokia 5800XM: White dots on my pictures

Hello everyone.
I've recently purchased a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and I love it to death
Although, I have a problem when I take pictures.
On my Nokia, nothing seems wrong, but if I send a picture in a multimedia message or transfer it to my PC, it's full of white dots. It's very annoying.
Here's an example of the white dots, and some nice steaks:
I hope this can be solved.
Regards,
debichu
PS: The steaks tasted very good

white dots that usually fill photos taken with low-resolution cameras that have a very weak flash or no flash at all.
those white dots on your screen arent coz of ur lens...lens dont produce such kind of atrifacts .... it might be a pixel problem in your lcd screen ,,,and nokia 5800 is known to have probs with its lcd screen ....if possible take your phone to nokia care
here is a link how to take better photos

White dots on Pictures

I posted my website and some of the pictures i posted have little white dots all over them. But it is only like that when viewed on certain PC computers. So far 4 of 5 PCs I viewed my website on, there were the white dots. Can any one tell me why this is, and how can I fix it. my website is brookeimages.com

Ok, depending on what version of IE they have, it could be this thing.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828682
Since it's an IE problem, if they can't upgrade their computer, they're stuck with it. The article mentions the problem happens when files are larger than the screen, so using smaller images might work.

What is the white dot on my ipod screen? i can't get rid of it even when using apps?

If I click on the dot it brings up a translucent screen with other options: Favourites (star) Home (home button) Device (picture of an iphone) and the circle (gestures). No matter what I do I cannot get rid of this icon and it is driving me mental!

Just did a further search and found that my question was alreaxdy answered by Jandt - thank you!

The white dot is the button that brings up AssistiveTouch which allows you to use your iPod if you have difficulty touching the screen.
To turn this function off, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > OFF.

Hello!
I want to share the problem with my NOKIA 5800XM and it is that while browsing the pages that have many meanings in this picture is a page with only pictures / galleries / funny and entertaining anybrowser closes itself.
I got the settings here but there remains a problem, someone has idya what can solve this horrible problem.
I tried with several browser as Opera .... But there is a similar problem, and makes me think that the phone can not work with pages that have many pictures.
Best regards.

Yes this is really stupid, I hope our colleagues from NOKIA to pay attention to this general bug as soon as possible.
I tested a few phone in 5800 the same page and it really has a problem there.
I did notice however that when run from java settings error report and then load the same page, enter some mistakes a miracle ....
therefore I think there is a problem of their browser-JAVA
WE need hellp......

A White dot has appeared behind my iPhone 4 Display, What to do?

I suddenly noticed a rather eye catching white dot appear behind my display on my iPhone 4. I checked, and so has someone else, and were certain its not a pixel issue, but the fact that it seems to be behind the glass of the iPhone quite deep down. I can most likely get it replaced in the Apple Store, but I was just curious to know what it was, so if you know or have experienced it before, I would really appreciate that you comment below. i have left some pictures bewow as well (the red circel indicates the dot) but it's not as clear as in real life and is much worse in reality too.
Many thanks for any help!

who knows what it is, and frankly, who cares? Bring the phone into Apple for replacement.

Black or White Dots appear near borders when using QuickTime Help me pleas

Hi, please check out the following two pictures:
http://snipr.com/1q3xv-kzgfh9
http://snipr.com/1q3xw-mmpcn1
The first link is a screenshot of the QuickTime Player playing back a movie, and the second one is VLC playing the same mocie. You'll see that there are black or white dots clustered around the border of objects in the picture. Animated or not, the dots still appear. The dots always just DISPLAYED in the past, but while using Submerge yesterday the dots were passed on into the file I produced and ended up on the DVD disc I burned.
This started sometime after Tiger was released and I can't stand it anymore. The same problem does NOT occure with VLC playback. Could anyone PLEASE shead some light on this matter?!
Many Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I have QT Pro

QTKirk,
Thanks for the reply!
No, I'm not using .Gifs. I'm using AVIs, but ANY video file that QT can play will display the "spots" while the same files won't in VLC.
Does this sound like the same problem? Links below:
QT: http://snipr.com/1q3xv-kzgfh9
VLC: http://snipr.com/1q3xw-mmpcn1
Problem in Submerge (which uses QT): http://snipr.com/1ptx3-itpu2k
See what I mean? It's not just the QT Player. It's all apps that use QT.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Jim

When rotated from landscape/portrait i get all these strange white dots light bleeding

Hi, I purchased an iPad 2 white wi-fi 16gb about 2 weeks ago now and i have noticed that the backlight is bleeding, i figured that was normal since there are TONNES of posts on here about it saying it does, but they said it may clear up. it hasn't. Also when i tilt my screen from portrait/landscape these tiny white dots jump accross my screen like a glitch in the software, should i get a refund?

I've just discovered a similar issue, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with vertical or horizontal. At least it is still happening when I turn photos sideways.
To be very clear here
1) This is not a thumbnail issue, these are the original files taken from my camera minutes ago.
2) This is not initial blurriness while the photo loads.
3) I only notice it in full screen (edit) mode because it's actually quite subtle.
4) Photos display correctly (sharp) when you zoom in a little, but return to blurry when you zoom back out.
5) Appears to be random, with one nearly identical shot being crisp and the next appears blurry, but the affect seems to be specific to particular images (e.g. it doesn't come and go randomly regardless of which pictures you happen to be looking at. If a photo is blurry, it will stay that way even if you've closed iPhoto and reopened it).
6) Photos are from a Nikon D5000
Any suggestions? This is a ridiculous hassle as the OP mentioned, and is completely unacceptable in any photo editing/browsing software.

Samsung LED 55" White Dot

After working outside all day and exhausted I absent mindedly flicked my ball cap at a fly on the T.V.
There is a 1 mm chip in the glass. The white dot appears when watching something. Mostly is visible on dark colored images. Hardly noticeable on sports programs thankfully.
It's very small but the overall viewing experience is diminished from an otherwise beautiful picture.
The diode looks intact. I believe the light is refracted into and through where the chip in the GLASS membrane is. When the program image is all black there is no white dot.
What are your thoughts good kind community?
Thank you for you time and advice.

Today...
Local TV repair outfit, sort of affiliated with Best Buy, said that we are lucky it is only a tiny white dot. Most have a complete piece of junk after similar or worse damage.
I was told that the only fix is replacement of the glass panel. This is $900 plus service and labor. Not really worth it even though I paid a very good price initially. This technician of some measure of experience has, "tried everything", to repair glass panels.
It is unbelievable that this technology is so difficult to repair! The debate of manufacturing defects begin with this design and engineering. These materials are too delicate and unreliable.
This is my point about a learning experience regarding big screen LED screen technologies. Seems to me there would be enough cases of junked units and wasted investment to start class action lawsuits vs. manufacturers.
I can live with the dot as it doesn't bother the image on sports...you don't notice it at all... Movies and dark images are another thing...and i'm a movie buff so part of my T.V. experience is affected.

Nokia 5800xm V50 Video Centre

Hi,I have recently updated to V50 on my Nokia 5800xm and I have a query about video centre.When I open video centre it doesnt find my downloaded BBC Iplayer videos.It finds all my personal and imported films but not the Iplayer downloads.
Previous to updating no problems.
I can watch them in the realplayer app but this doesn`t remember the last viewed position in the video.
Anything I`m doing wrong or can do o resolve this?
Thanks.

When I download iPlayer video I go to file manager after download, select the downloaded video, select option-organize-move to folder-select E-select Video- go back back and back so download is showing again, then option-delete reply will be file not found. It should now show in vdeo list !!
Good Luck

Nokia 5800XM Messages Disappeared. Not Deleteable.

I have a 2 month old Nokia 5800XM v20.
It's been working fine except for the occassional incoming call hang bug, etc.
I had about 600 messages in my inbox. They were saved on phone memory. One day, when i tried to access the inbox, it refused to let me, and kept returning to the main messaging screen. So i restarted the phone. Now Messaging works fine, but All the messages appear to have disappeared. Inbox,Sent,Drafts, everything. Which is fine, they are unimportant.
The thing is they were being saved to Phone Memory. And even though they appear to have gone, when i check Phone memory status, it still says 46mb in messaging in Phone Memory. But There are no messages to delete, and i don't want to to a hard reset. I Shifted the SMS memory to memory card now, but i need to free up that space because i have only 15mb of free space on my phone.Is there any way to manually access phone memory and delete those messages ?
Any help would be suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As suggested, do a soft reset (*#7370#). This will not affect your messages in the memory card since the reset only wipes the phone's memory. When the phone starts up again, though, it won't see your messages in the memory card any more. You'll have to tell it again to use the memory card for message storage, at which point you'll find your messages again. But before doing that, don't forget to increase the number of saved messages in your sent items to more than 20. If you fail to do that then all but the last 20 will be deleted.
The above post is slightly misleading. It is not possible to store the first 'x' number of messages in the phone's memory and the rest on the memory card. They're either all on the memory card or all in the phone's memory.

Nokia 5800xm Outdoor message tone

When I first got my Nokia 5800xm, the Outdoor message tone said "You've got a message on your Nokia mobile". It's been missing a whle now, I can't find it on the net. Can anyone please help?
Nokia 5800xm firmware V52.0.007

Hi Stroke2007,
Welcome to the Nokia forum!
When you update your device, some functions are removed and some are added to the device. If the tone you're looking for is no longer there, you most likely won't be able to get it back anymore.
You could, however, record a similair message yourself or record someone else's voice and set this as the message tone for your Outdoor profile.
Hope this helps, let me know how you get on!

Nokia 5800XM Camera

Please improve the nokia 5800xm camera picture quality.

And so taking photos on the device. As you might expect, my tips are largely as they'd be for any other camera-toting smartphone, with just a few tweaks:
The easiest way to start the Camera application is to press and hold the camera shutter key. Because Camera is kept loaded in memory on the 5800, it should appear almost instantaneously, ready for action. (Note that if you haven't used your 5800 for a minute or so previously, you may need to flick the keylock switch first)
Don't worry too much about dust on the camera lens, a brief wipe on a soft cloth is all that's needed to get rid of any finger grease - if you get too zealous about cleaning the glass, you'll end up with hundreds of micro-scratches. These won't affect photos too much, but they will look ugly.
Don't worry about changing 'scene mode' or other settings, most of them don't make any difference.
As mentioned above, know that the 5800 XpressMusic's camera is on the small side, physically, so you'll need to have lots of light around to register on the small sensor. Sunlight is best, of course, but there are still wide variations in light levels on overcast days. Low light means potentially 'noisy' photos. And focussing won't be as accurate. Shooting snaps indoors will often produce disappointing results, but you may be able to help by hitting that big, thumb-friendly flash icon and setting flash to 'on'. This is called fill-in flash and for subjects a metre or so away in indistinct indoor lighting, can make a difference.
The usual photo-taking tips apply, as with any camera phone: try to brace yourself when taking a photo, so that the device doesn't shake; wait a fraction of a second after the shutter sound before moving the phone down; think about the source of light and try to have it in the arc behind you if possible; for important static shots, take more than one, just in case - one may be sharper, better focussed or more shake-free.
By default, geotagging of your photos is turned OFF. If you think you'll be wanting to place your photos on a map later on (e.g. on Flickr or Share on Ovi) then go into 'Options - Settings' and turn 'Show GPS info' on. As usual with GPS, be aware that getting a position fix may take a minute or so if you've moved a long way from the last time you used the phone's GPS. And it won't work indoors unless you're close to a big window and feely lucky... The geotagging algorithms do allow a certain time leeway, i.e. they'll accept a previous position fix provided it wasn't too long ago.
Tapping on the envelope icon is the shortcut to use to fire your photo up to the world immediately - but that's another tutorial for another day!
