Nokia 770 screen malfunction

Ok so I was loading up a video in mplayer that ive loaded up previously and worked fine. This time the nokia froze up so I took the battery out to reset it. I turn the 770 back on and get a white screen and after about 3 minutes I hear the "Ding dong Ding" sound indicating boot up, the screen then shows a few blurred gray lines but its still mostly white, when i touch the screen it will make the ticking sound and i can kind of see that menus are opening yet the screen is still mostly white! So far ive reinstalled maemo once with the latest version but im still having the same problem! please someone help me, as this sucks greatly so.

I would say take it to your local Nokia service centre, but I did that and they couldn't deal with it. They were very helpful and very sorry and I ended up ringing Nokia Head Office. I had to register as a Club Nokia member using my N80 then they have said someone will call me to arrange for the 770 to be collected.
Mine became faulty for no apparent reason, I turned it on and - nothing! Really miss mine, broken since Thursday and no idea when Nokia will collect or return.

    No. Not this time. It's still being rolled out of the factory. It seems some batches of this phone have this kind of fault.
    This tip below might be a little useful.
    Try updating your phone's firmware by clicking to this link below:

    Make sure you meet the system requirements before proceeding and backup some of your important contents.
    If the phone still does not show any improvements, I suggest you to send the phone to the Nokia Care Centre near you.

  • Nokia 770: Can't Surf The Net In Hotels

    When trying to connect my Nokia 770 Internet Tablet while in hotels, I find that my success is hit and miss. But I can use a laptop and connect. The difference is the browser on the laptop defaults to a web page from the ISP where I have to agree to some terms before being allowed to surf the net. How do I get to this default page with the Nokia 770?Message Edited by cxbank on 26-Jan-2007

    Well, both really. Sometimes I can open the browser and surf for a while fine, then it hangs. Other times it hangs as soon as I open the browser. I've also noticed that the iTunes visualizer hangs unless it is in full screen mode. It never used to do that. In fact, I used to have trouble getting a full screen visualizer, now it's all I can do. Windows is updated. I suppose I could try sound and video card updates.

  • Nokia 770 Tablet

    I just got a Nokia 770 Tablet an am having trouble signing onto AOL and reading my email.  I am able to send emails. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it.  I seem to have all the settings that Aol recommends for ingoing and outgoing.  It might have to do with the user name as that screen comes uo, but doesnt allow me to put in a username.

    I was wondering the same thing. The size of the memory card is based upon the OS. Most are restricted to 2GB because the file system is FAT16/32. I have no idea about the 770 and would like to know also.

    Best Regards Dean

    oh dear god! a 770! That's like handing someone a "black and white" phone!!
    But seriously, I like / miss the 770.. a hard case / screen protector built in
    You're kind of limited in what you can do with the 770, I'm afraid.. The main reason is the age of the CPU and the limited flash memory..
    First thing I'd do is reflash the thing.. wipe it clean..
    If you head on over to http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/ you have three options:
    OS2006: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_770.php
    This is the last great OS version for the 770, it is Maemo 2 (compared to Maemo 5 on the N900)
    OS2007 Hacker edition: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/os2007_hacker_edition.php
    This is a cut down version of OS2007 aka Maemo 3 that was released first for the N800.. The reason this is a "hacker edition" is because many of the apps are removed to allow the image to sit on the very small flash memory.. It's not as good as OS2007 is on the N800
    Last is:
    OS2008 Hacker edition: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/os2008_hacker_edition.php
    This is the hacker version of OS2008 aka Maemo 4.. Maemo4 is the OS that ran on the N800 and later the N810 phone. Just as with the OS2007 hacker edition, its really cut down.. It's not really suitable for day to day use..
    Now, the main thing to note is that you can reflash your device as many times you'd like.. This means you can try all three OS versions.
    To flash your device, you need a copy of flasher-3.5
    The process is very similar to the N900
    flasher-3.5 -F image.bin -f -R
    replace image.bin with the name of one of the OS images you downloaded from the links above
    After you've run that command, turn your 770 off
    Press and hold down the "home" button and plug it into the computer.. it should wake up and start flashing.
    This is a bit of a summary.. but let me know if you want more in depth details and I'll see what I can do.
    The 770 is was great device, but it is really very dated compared to the N800, N810 and now the N900..

  • Nokia 770 and Greek warranty

  • Upgrade to OS on Nokia 770 Tablet

    In my new Nokia 770 I realized that the operating system was the 2005 version. After performing, in an apparently normal way, the process of updating to the 2006 version the device worked no longer (did not reboot at the end of updating) and all I could get was a blank screen. I am going to get a new one but I´m afraid to try again.

    Thanks for the tips, Niel and WWJD! I have just learned from another source that OS 10.4 is also available on a 4-CD set. Is there any way I can get this set? I'd be happy to exchange the one DVD for the set, as apparently this would solve all problems without the need to invest in new drives. Thanks!

  • 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 !
    skype

     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 Big Screen has Small Resolution

    Am using Nokia Phone Broswer 2 together with Nokia Big Screen for HDMI connectio to TV set. This produces low-resolution iamges on the TV screen, as if the phone browser choses a resolution for its own screen and is not aware of the Big Screen.
    I suggest Nokia to improve the integration between these 2 apps

     It's not possible to use BigScreen to browse the internet on a TV. It currently only supports videos, pictures and music.
    All the best.

  • N8 - Nokia Sleeping Screen / Situations

    I am interested in trying out Nokia Sleeping Screens available from the Beta Lab.
    However, I already use Nokia Situations and I am very impressed with it, especially it's ability to switch profiles at certain times (eg, switching to my Night Time profile from 11pm until 8.00am)
    How would Sleeping Screens work with Situations, or are they 2 completely different applications?
    History: Always Nokia since 1994 including Nokia 2140, 7110e, 6150, 6210, 6310i, 6230i, N82
    Current: Nokia N8 (Anna - I have no intention of going to Belle) - and delighted with it!

    @krisq
    I don't really know!
    I think that I was under the impression that Sleeping Screen was more than just a screen saver and I was thinking that some of the features were similar to Situations.
    Thanks for making me look again at it!
    I have now installed Sleeping Screen.

  • Nokia 770 and Adobe Flash Player

    I have been to a number of sites, like youtube.com, where I am directed to get an updated flash player, and then i am routed to the Adobe Flash Player for Linux download page. Unfortunately, the download button is not shown on the 770, while it is shown when I use my computer. Even if I could download it, the instructions pertain to a computer with a Modzilla browser.
    Does the 770 have a flash player, and can it be updated?

    Question: When is an 'Internet' Tablet not an 'Internet' Tablet?
    Answer : When like the nokia 770 it comes with an outdated flash player that can't be updated!
    To own one of these 770s with a completely out of date (cira 1998 for flash 6?) flash player is like owning a car (recently purchased) that will not drive on newly built roads!
    I got my mind around the 770 not having a decent Calendar a some time ago (eventhough you get a Calendar on the most basic Nokia phone!). The Geeks of Nokia tell us "This is not a PDA & that why it doesn't have a Calendar". Ok so it is not a PDA but if it is an 'Internet' Tablet, why is the flash player so out of date?? Why don't Nokia release an updated version for it?? This device was on sale in the UK upto about 2 weeks ago through Nokia's own web shop for £243 !!
    If Nokia think all 770 users should buy an N800 just to get upto date internet capability, here is my answer: IN NO WAY 'JOSE'!! I am looking at alternative options.
