Nokia 6500 slide problem after updated to firmware...

Hi, I have recently updated my nokia 6500 slide with the latest firmware version 9.40. I realise that after the upgrade, my phone encounters problem reading the SD memory card. It happens intermittently, sometimes you see, sometimes you don't. Initially I thought it was due to my memory card but after replacing it with a new one, problem still occurs.

It looks like something on your system caused the updater to crash.
Unfortunately your only option for that model is to take it to a nokia care point for repair. Tere's nothing else that you can do for it.

  • Nokia 6500 Slide dead after update

    So, I updated to the latest firmware. Everything was fine until the phone restarted. Nokia Software update showed me that update last's for 15 minutes.. I waited. 15, 30.. And so, finally I gave up. 
    It updated too long, and I decided to try if my phone starts, because it had to restart, but it did not. Phone just shut down, and nothing else. Before attempting the update, I was sure that battery was almost full. So there were no battery alerts in this update.- I've tried to take battery out and keep it like this for 5 minutes. It helped, phone buttons lights and screen started to work, but after 5 seconds it shuts down automatically. So I tried to do this more and more, but it did not help at all. 
    After trying this battery out method for multiple times, phone went to very strange condition. I took the battery out, but screen and buttons were on. Like what the heck was that? Phone worked without battery on? 
    Before this awful update fail, my nokia was in perfect condition. No marks of damage or anything else, it was a well cared phone, so I personally think that the problem was not caused by hardware.
    What should I do next? I really need my nokia right now.
    Phone is Nokia 6500s-1    _____Type: RM-240

    You need to send it to your local Nokia Care Point. There is nothing else you can try yourself.

  • Camera problems after updating 8100 Firmware to v4.5

    Hi All
    This is a known issue to me as I update all our work handsets with Blackberry firmware for the company I work for.
    After updating the firmware on several handsets to the latest 4.5 version of the Blackberry 8100 there is a problem with the camera.
    When you are in view mode and outside (even whilst overcast) the screen goes white as if the aperture for the lens is open wide.
    Even when you take the picture the result is whiteness everywhere.
    Please see examples here:

    and
    http://www.imagedump.com/index.cgi?pick=get&tp=540101
    Both of these pictures were taken indoors with just flourescent lights on.
    However if I return the firmware to a lower level the problem no longer exists.
    I have tried changing the white Balance settings on the handset and no matter which setting I put it on the same results occure.
    I was wondering if there is a patch or do I have to wait for the next version for a bug fix?
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Solved!

    Upgraded the handset software to 4.5.0.55 and the camera problem no longer exists.
    Can I get Kudos for solving the problem myself?? LOL

    Could you please follow these steps if problem will occur again?
    1. Disconnect your phone from PC if connected.
    2. Open Control Panel and go to ‘Programs and Features’
    3. From the list of available programs, choose ‘Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver’
    4. Click on the ‘Change’ button on top toolbar.
    5. In the setup dialog box that pops up next, choose ‘Repair’ and select ok. Wait for setup to complete.
    6. Restart the computer if prompted.
    7. Now connect your phone to the PC. Driver installation should complete and Nokia Suite (hopefully) should detect your mobile properly now.
    I hope it helps!

  • Nokia 6500 slide problem

    My 6500 slide keeps changing the theme and ringtone by itself. I changed the micro sd card recently could this somehow be the problem?
    Any help appreciated.

    The reason for this as I learnt last week is a small switch which is operated by placing the back cover on the phone. Its a 'safety' feature apparently. If you have a picture or ringtone set from the memoery card relese the back. (you will notice it reverts everything back to factory settings. Now do the same but make sure the tone and pic that you use is stored to the phone memory not your card.....presto!! it stays on and dosent revert. People around the globe think its a software bug when actually its not. It prevents you losing data from your memory card. I am currently trying to find out if this feature can be disabled. Its stupid, I know!!!!!

  • Problem after updating to Firmware 2.2.1

    Hi.
    I am having a huge problem with my iPhone, I have just updated my iPhone to 2.2.1 when I had problems with the SMS because I could not even type anything as "N" kept pressing Enter but I am not touching Enter, so I had to reset and restore it with 2.2.1.
    After restoring and syncing the iPhone with my Songs, Videos, Pictures, etc... my iPhone prompted that my iPhone is activated so I dismissed the message, and slided the 'slide to unlock' and got to the Home Menu, this message about the:
    *Edit Home Screen*
    *To rearrange icons, touch and hold any icon until it starts to wiggle, then drag icons to desired locations.*
    *Drag an icon to the far right to create additional Home screens.*
    *Press the Home button when done.*
    I got this prompted up, so I tried to dismiss it, but I couldn't even dismiss it, I can't even press the 'Dismiss' button.
    I restored the iPhone again, it is still not working ... what should I do?
    Please help me to let me follow easily.

    Hi Wayne,
    If there is a protective case or film on the iPhone, try testing without it.
    Also, try the general touchscreen troubleshooting tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1650?locale=en_GB#faq5
    If the issue persists, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it or call AppleCare.

  • Problems after updating to firmware 3.0

    Hi all,
    On wednesday I had updated to version 3.0 for my iPod touch 2G. I could see comparing to other touch 2G (v 2.2.1) that WIFI connection is very slow into YouTube, Safari, AppStore and all apps that uses WIFI connection.
    When I look at Setup -> General -> Information I could see my MAC Address so, problems that have other people on forums is not my problem.
    Do Anyone have a solution? or I have to wait to another firmware update.
    Thanks a lot

    There are a couple of things you can do:
    1. Reboot your router
    2. Reset your network settings
    3. Under the settings for the network you are connected to, change your proxy settings to Auto.
    WiFi isn't really slower under 3.0 (at least not on my network) so try those things out.

  • Z10,Q10 & Z30 slow restart problem after update to firmware 10.2.1.1925

    Hi, I have just updated our blackberry Q10 and Z30 to new firmware, which is fantastic! I point out a problem, probably a small software bug.When I turn on the Blackberry reboot is really slow and spend a few minutes before I was prompted to enter the PIN code of the SIM card.The problem is the pin code of the SIM card: If you take this option, restart will be as fast as before! I hope that will be soon released an update that resolves this problem.Thank You Hello.

    Thanks for clarifying, hopefully someone from BlackBerry will pick this up and it will be fixed in a future release.

    how did you know man?
    Actually it's just what you said. I have installed the quran application from the Nokia website in the same day that I upgraded the firmware. Now I removed the application and the browser is working well.
    Thank you very much.
    Bro, you don't have to uninstall Quran application, just do this :
    -download the new Quran application (no more font problem in nokia default browser, they solved it)
    OR
    -copy all fonts in z:\resources\Fonts to c:\resources\Fonts (create the folder if it doesn't exist) and then reboot your phone (note: your phone must hacked, so the C drive is writable)

  • MY NOKIA N73 NOW DEAD AFTER UPDATING TO FIRMWARE 3...

    Hi ladies and gents
    looks like other folks have had thier lovely new shiny n73's turned into paperwieghts.
    followed the instructions to the letter, everything looked like it was working, the updater asked me to remove the battery and the charger for a few secs then press/hold the on button for a few secs...................then the updating process continues but then i get a message saying the update process failed and to try again which i did, only for the same thing to happen two more times!!!!??????
    just wondering what other ownwers experiences have been like perforrming the above firmware update. any advice would be appriciated.

    When the Software updater prompts you to do that, DO NOT unplug the phone or remove the battery at any stage. Simply check that the phone has no active connections running in the back round and click try again. The same thing happened with my N70-1 as I was using the phone as a modem at the same time that I was updating the software. I ;et the file download then when it prompted me to remove the battery I simply disconnected the modem and clicked try again and it updated with no issues at all.

  • Nokia 6500 Slide Software Update

    I purchased the Nokia 6500 Slide phone at Christmas. I was having a problem with receiving photos and telephoned Nokia. They asked me the version of software on the phone - think it's 3.8. I was told it needed updating to the 4.84 version. I was given the name of a local Nokia Engineer who would be able to do this for me. I have contacted the company and have been told that they would be happy to do this for me, but I would have to leave the phone with them for two days.
    Having just read some comments on a website it seems the latest version is in fact 6.60 but there appear to be conflicting views on the software.
    Can anyone please advise me whether I am safer sticking with the original software on the phone or having it updating to the 4.84 version - what are the advantages of the new software?
    Many thanks
    Casselle

    Hi there Hamraam, been reading this thread and if you continue to have the problems with your phone, I would suggest taking your phone to your local Nokia Care Centre for them to take a look at. That is strange that calendar entries and personalised settings are not being restored to your phone after the update.
    It is unlikely that Nokia will release another firmware update for the 6500 Slide. It was released in October 2006 or thereabouts, same as the 5610 XpressMusic, and with the release of newer models, the support cycle for the 6500 Slide has most likely ended with the release of the last update, 10.00, for unbranded product codes of the handset. 
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

  • Camera Problems after Update - NOKIA SUPPORT PLEAS...

    Hi There
    I am reading over the net that some users lost the ability to use the camera after Update of firmware.
    I am one of those that have a N93I (Which supposed to have a great camera) that can't use the camera any more , When I try to use the camera I get stripes on the screen and the pictures are all black.
    I am reading about the same issues with other users and other phones.
    I have tried to update the software several times and it remains the same.
    What are my options , I got the phone as a gift from other state and I don't have a place that can help me here in Israel , I guess I need to re flash the phone but no support center in Israel that can do this since this phone is not “official” supported in Israel ... What can I do.
    I must say that I am disappointed from Nokia phones; I have bought two in the last months:
    Nokia N93I : I cannot use the camera after using the NOKIA software update.
    Nokia N95 that the screen turn to black, the phone is working but nothing on the screen ,At least this can be fixed by Nokia partner in Israel since the phone is also being sell in Israel.
    I am a big fan of Nokia, I used a many phones and the main issue is that those are the best phones and I feel like **bleep** with those.
    Please help me and advise me what I can do with my N93I.
    Thanks in advance.

    I AM VERRY SORRY TO BE THE ONE WHO TELLS U THIS but, unfortunatley the black photos and strips are not caused by the update (( it is a HARDWARE problen nothing to do with software. i had the same problem and i went to a service with it, they reinstalled the soft but still didnt work, then when they checked the camera inside the prob was truly this thing: camera itself
    srry man anyway try to get an opinion of ur self from some services i may be wrong
    (that war the problem in my case with black/blue photos and stripes)

  • White screen problem after updating to 1.1 firmware

    My 2G iPod Nano worked fine with 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 firmware but after updating to 1.1 I get white screen everytime I turn it on after longer period of time. Turning the iPod off and then right back on makes it work again. I have done restore 3 times without effect. I even removed the firmware files so that iTunes downloads them again when doing the restore but that didn't work either.
    Should I return it or wait for new firmware? Has anyone else had this problem after updating to 1.1?

    Disconnect iPod and close iTunes.
    Firmware files are in "Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates" folder.
    You should still have the 1.0.2 files named "iPod_19.1.0.2.ipsw" and "iPod_19.1.0.2.ipsw.signature" in there if have you upgraded from 1.0.1 version.
    Remove 1.1 files from the folder so that only those to files are in there.
    Disconnect from network (I switched off my wlan) so that iTunes can't download the new version. Connect your iPod and do Restore, iTunes will now use the old firmware files because it can't connect to the internet.
