Nokia 808 - HSPA menu gone on firmware 1507

The Nokia HSPA suggested workaround here
http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/troubleshooting/?action=singleFAQ&caseid=FA140286_en_US
cannot be done, because the setting does not exist.
The menu structure
Settings > Connectivity > Admin. settings > Mobile data > High speed packet access
is missing the last item.
Under Mobile Data there are just two items:
Mobile data connection (when needed)
Access point (none)
Where has it gone?
Now, on my Nokia 700, I cannot find it either! That is v. 1506. This looks like a recent change.

OK... I think I have found out some interesting things.
Firstly, the HSPA enable switch does not appear unless you are connected to a 3G network. I presume it means 3G or HSPA. It certainly does not appear when the phone is connected to GPRS only, or has no signal. It is REALLY WEIRD of Nokia to make config items thus dependent! What have they been smoking?
Secondly, even where I am located, with a strong HSPA signal, displayed on a Nokia 700 as "3.5G", the 808 shows "3G". I have just downloaded (from a known very fast server) a 24MB file in 60 secs, which is 400kbits/sec which is at the top end of UK 3G speeds. Another test from another known-fast server of a 24MB file took the same time. So while this is not conclusive, because a poor HSPA connection could be running that slow, it looks like Nokia has disabled HSPA on the new batch of the 808...
BTW does anybody, when they login here to post, get a popup window which goes to a website called oyodomo.com, and a load of adverts around the while Nokia site?
That popup is clearly being triggered by the Nokia server. Doing a google finds a lot of hits commencing early Feb 2013 - exactly when my Firefox stopped working with this site. The only way I can post here is with IE8.

NOKIA 808 Settings menu disappears!

Hello .
I just noticed this morning that my Nokia 808 has a problem with the settings menu.
Every time I open it after 1 second it closed down/disappears. It does not even show up on the multitasking so it seems it just closes down after 1 second.
Last night I did an upgrade for my Nokia 808 , was a small one about gallery and restarted last night.
Today when I try to check for updates it just takes forever and I have to cancel the attempt.
Please help. It's very annoying not being able to access the settings!

Suggest that you backup essential data via Nokia Suite and use option within this application to re-install exisitng device software. It might also be necessary to reset device to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user) but beware this will delete all user data.

The future Nokia OS update for Nokia 808 PureView ...

Warm regards to the Nokia family and all members out here!
Ive been a Nokia fanboy for the last 5 years, and have bought most of the smartphones produced by our very own Nokia. India is a very good market for Nokia, but since the past few years, people are just moving towards other platforms for some reason(s)..
Having said that, I would like to inform you that I bought the Nokia 808 PureView Cameraphone recently, and im enjoying the overall experience, though, I would like to give some of my suggestions for the future Nokia (Symbian) OS with a view to better it as a complete smartphone OS and lessen the number of unsatisfied customers. So, without wasting any more time, I'll come to the point straight away. Below are my opinions that ive summarized-
1.) For a better visual experience:
- Horizontal scrolling in menu is highly recommended as its simply more practical and easy-to-use.
- An option for changing wallpapers while changing HS (homescreen) or setting a single widescreen wallpaper that scrolls in every HS would be a welcome addition.
- Size of icons in menu should be reduced to around half of the current size in FP1.
- Simpler and faster theme effects.
- The pop up menu (when 'options' is pressed) while being in the landscape screen orientation (in any app) should be worked upon so that it populates more options while covering a lesser part of the screen.
- The bounce back effect of tkinetic scrolling in some apps, like browser for instance, shold be reduced or disabled.
2.) For better apps and overall experience:
- App open and close delay should be minimized
- App installation time (specially QT apps) needs a reduction..
- the browser needs a major update with full support of flash and improvements in pan & zoom functionality.
- Im satisfied with the number of apps available, so this is not an issue with me
- The qwerty keyboard responsiveness and key positioning needs an improvement. Ive compared it to other OSes myself and found out that I made less errors on those..
As im short of time, thats it for now. Hope you guys at nokia take this as a positive feedback and work towards improving the overall experience of THE BEST CAMERAPHONE ON PLANET, ie, THE NOKIA 808 PUREVIEW (and other capable hardware phones).
Thanx,
Varun Paul

Hello…I own an 808 PureView device. At the outset, I must congratulate you for creating such a marvelous device. It’s in all dimensions a brilliant Smartphone and has no major lags except a few which I would like to mention as suggestions to improve the general smoothness and usefulness of its User Interface (henceforth-UI).
The in-built gallery lacks ‘mark multiple items’ option which, if integrated, can be fruitfully used to delete or send multiple items though Bluetooth. Also, the in-built gallery lacks ‘renaming’ function which would otherwise be helpful in organizing the gallery items, and in giving custom names which are easy to remember and deal with.
The generic MUSIC PLAYER lacks the track/music search function from within the music player, and so, to search a song out of the vast collection, the user has to use the generic SEARCH application by exiting or minimizing the music player, which in itself is a cumbersome exercise. The search function, if integrated into the music player, will help a great deal in making the music experience really customized and precise as also time saving.
The in-built VIDEO editing options available in the video viewing dashboard are relatively much naïve and rudimentary as compared to PureView’s lesser predecessor, the N8. Now, since 808 is a full-fledged camera Smartphone, it is bit logical on part of the user to expect the video editing dashboard to be as efficient and complete as the photo editing dashboard of the same is. Advance options like adding music clip can be added to the video editing console to mitigate the need of using any third party application to do so, and thus, it will further enhance the utility drawn from the cell-phone UI in terms of video editing and viewing.
The generic MESSAGING application has the default view as CONVERSATIONS view and manual selection every time is required to switch the view to FOLDERS mode. If there had been an option to make a choice in setting the folders view or the conversations view as default as per users convenience, it would have been again a smooth messaging experience.
To end up, the generic CONTACT application lacks the facility to edit the contact labels unlike the one which was available in S60 V3 devices (I owned N79 prior to owing 808 PureView and so I am well aware of this utility). Facility to edit the contact labels makes it easy to differentiate between multiple contact numbers of the same contact so as to have an ease of remembrance and clarity of use.
I earnestly hope that Nokia will incorporate some or all of these suggestions in the next-to-come firmware upgrade for Belle FP1 devices. These modifications/additions, if done and made, will make the Belle OS fully competent with its various other contemporaries as it just lacks these things but otherwise is a fluid and extremely useful OS. I request you to kindly pay due heed and consideration to my observations and work towards making the Belle OS an all-encompassing mobile platform. Thanking You.

Video Pro application on Nokia 808 FP2 hanging

Hi,
The Video Pro app (not the regular video editor) on my Nokia 808 FP2 always hangs when I try to choos a video.
I attached a screenshot of what is happening.
I waited almost an hour just to see if it finally works but nothing.. just stays at this screen loading.
Is there a bug in the software?
thanks

If you got Belle FP2 FOTA as soon as it was released it included Video Pro but firmware update was quickly pulled due to issues and ths application was absent when it was re-released; it has not to date re-appeared in SW update.

Nokia 808 Pureview Youtube Videos not working

Hi guys,
I just purchased my Nokia 808 and everything is running smooth except videos are not playing online.
I am seeing a little f sign in the left upper corner which I believe is the flash player sign.
I can see everything else in the window except the actual video.
I contacted Nokia support and they restarted the phone.
I also have the latest software update.
I am unable to find a newer flash lite other then the current 4.0 which is pre-installed in the phone.
Please help because I do not want to send the phone back.

Need for Nokia 808 reinstall stock camera.

I install the app 'camerapro for N8 and 808' and set as default camera. But the stock apps show blank black screen while still can take photo. I'm unsure whats going on. I turn off Camerapro apps as default, but the problem still presist. I tried reboot the first 2 times it still the same. Until I tried for more than 5~10 times finally get it to work but very unstable. Sometimes the stock camera run to standby mode when I already press the hangup red button to close the apps. Once I take a photo and go to gallery and try to go back to camera mode it sometimes shows a camera screen yet no option to change setting at all or even blank screen when press on the shutter yet can take photo.
I need to reinstall the stock camera apps and hope it will fix the problem that the camerapro cause to my nokia 808 stock camera.

Have similar issue to yourself upon 808 re-furbished to latest 113.010.1508 software. Whilst stock camera application icon worked about two times after firmware installed it no longer does, however although Camera Pro installed it is not chose as default but in Stock > "Preferences" I have selected "Capture when phone locked" so I can launch stock camera at anytime by pressing shutter release if this makes sense.
I thought that maybe this error was restricted to my device as since Belle FP2 I always get a "System error" screen on booting which disappears upon clicking OK but I can find no other adverse side effects upon device.

Notifications screen nokia 808

Hello,
Nokia, in several interviews, is committed to monitoring support for its models symbian until 2016. Just then raise a claim. Housing days to provide more, not regression. The type of screen technology used supports the arrival and the presence of notifications on the screen saver. See by analogy that the nokia n9. However, only visible and missed calls the arrival of new sms. Previously, it was also see new mails. I do not want to hear about widgets is another function which involves opening the home. Of Suddenly, from beautiful, it is a function incomplete but is important. Similarly, why not link twitter and facebook notifications to the application by Nokia or third office on the screen. Ditto for whatsapp nokia or cat. This is real functions. And bases. So just. Remark, I want my About to take the plunge demand filled in the short term. And I think not the only one to ask these functions, simple but effective, the API is open to developers to go in this direction. I hope to be extended in this application and followed by other consumers. Cordially.

we appreciate your feedback, but as Symbian is now in maintenance mode, bar the 808, which may see more firmware updates. as this is predominantly a user to user forum, you would be best to leave your feedback direclty with Nokia by clicking the Nokia Support link at the bottom of this page.

Help. My Nokia 808 PureView Proximity sensor probl...

Hello. I just wanted to ask if my problem with the proximity sensor on my brand new Nokia 808 PureView not locking my phone when in a call even if my ear or my finger blocks the sensor is a Firmware/Software-related or a Hardware-related problem? It's not a big issue but i just wanted to know.
PS: It has no screen protector covering the sensor.
Please I need your expert advice. So that if it's really a hardware-related I can send it to the Nokia Care Center. And if its a software/firmware-related then I'll just wait for the update.
And thank you for having the time reading my post/query and answering.

Nokia 808 crashes periodically when 3G enabled (Ge...

Hi,
I have a Nokia 808 PureView Type RM-807, Software version 112.020.0309. I can provide more details if needed.
I bought this device in Ukraine because that's where I work. There is no WCDMA 3G in Ukraine. EDGE peformance in Ukraine was fine. Currently I am travelling my home country, Germany, and have got local (German) SIM cards from O2 and from Vodaphone with a 3G data plan and was expecting being to able my phone with 3G in Germany, but alas, I am not.
The issue is that while 3G works at first sight, with 3G enabled, my phone crashes on average once or twice a day. By "crashes" I mean that the screen either freezes or turns black and the only way to wake up the phone is to remove the battery.
The problem is exacerberated by bad operator connectivity. The first two weeks I stayed at a holiday resort by the sea where 3G quality was limited. There, my phone kept crashing every 30 minutes or so. I then disabled 3G and used EDGE and thought oh well maybe both O2 and Vodaphone just have a faulty base transmitter station here or something. However, I also see the crashes now in big cities where I have 5 bars quality and even while I stay stationary at one office with perfect 3G coverage. The crashes are less frequent here, I can work a couple of hours but all of a sudden, wosh, the screen goes black. Disabling 3G and using GRPS/EDGE solves the problem. I have not seen a single crash with 3G disabled, but GPRS enabled for all my stay in Germany which is now approaching 4 weeks. Everything is a bit more slow but works stably.
Now if I re-iterate the arguments from the Wi-Fi connectivity thread: Of course I am willing to accept that the 808 has got a perfect implementation of the standards and that the base transmitter stations of both O2 and Vodaphone are misbehaving. However I EXPECT MY PHONE TO WORK UNDER REAL LIFE CONDITIONS. No matter how the BTS misbehaves, under no circumstances should my phone crash becaus of that!!! If 3G is flawy, it should fall back to EDGE and that's it! And I also can't help but notice that I also carry my old Nokia 5800 with me which is also a Ukrainian model but it has no issue at all with German 3G operators.
Speaking of "Ukraine" devices, I am still at FW 309 because no newer updates were made available to me so far. Maybe the 808 sold in Germany comes with a newer firmware with operator-specific fixes? Is there a way to get the newer firmware versions (I read about 310 and 311 on symbiantweet) for my phone? And why does Nokia not deploy all operator-specific fixes to all devices? After all you can never know where the customer will be travelling ...
I will be staying in Germany until end of August. I am able to reproduce the crashes at the office am currently working in, so we have some reproducable scenario. However they don't happen that often here, it is like once every other day, so not optimum testing conditions unfortunately. I can profide full cell/operator information as provided by PhoNetInfo or any other diagnosis tool if you let me know which one.
I have quite some data conusmers installed on my phone, there is the Facebook widget, the e-mail widget with a fastmail.fm IMAP account, the weather widget, and I frequently browse the web, use apps like FlickrUp to upload photos and so on. Initially, I also had installed WhatsApp, but that was the first app that I deinstalled when the phone started crashing, however, deinstalling did it not help at all.
Any thoughts welcome, I am willing to help with diagnosing the issue.
Best regards,
Tobias

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dear Kosh,
I resetted my device a couple of weeks ago because of the Wi-Fi trouble reported in an independent thread, just to be sure that my phone was 100% "virgin". I did not restore any kind of backup after that but re-did all necessary settings, installs etc. manually and copied some of the old photos to the mass memory, that's it.
On a second thought, a source of trouble that should be eliminated could be WhatsApp. I read a while ago that users were having crashes with WhatsApp and not having crashes when de-instlaling WhatsApp. So very extremely hypothetically, WhatsApp could have done something to my phone that makes it crash even after WhatsApp and all its related helper apps have been uninstalled. So I could do another reset cycle and not install WhatsApp at all. I don't need WhatsApp anyway.
Your advice of only making the most necessary settings is difficult to follow, because the crashes are more or less related to the amount of internet activity (either data volume or number of connections, I am not sure). No activity - no crash, the crashes always occur while I am doing something on the phone (that something could be anything - calling, browsing photos, uploading stuff to flickr, reading news with the pre-installed reuters app, trying to book a train ticket with DB navigator, ...). So I need to configure at least the built-in Nokia applications (mail, social network) and install some 3d party apps in order to be able to work on the phone enough to trigger the issue. What I could to is to leave out the "always on" apps like WhatsApp and TotalRecall. As I said, I will try to find a time window to do it.
Also, the crashes are not that often in the place where I am currently. Today I had 3G enabled the whole day and had a lot of VoIP and other activity, but the phone kept stable. I could of course book another holiday at that seaside with its flaky 3G connection for further debugging purposes, but that would be more expensive than getting a competitor's device plus a standalone camera ;-).
My product code is 059M7H1. Is there any firmware more recent than the 112.020.0309.C00.01 that i currently have?
Best regards,
Tobias

NOKIA 808 PureView MEMORY ERROR ! Please Help !

Nokia 808 PureView Memory Error !
So i bought my new nokia 808 and i made some photos put some songs in it and everything was going fine.Today in morning when i was shoting a photo and whent to edit it appeared this message :
" Memory is full.Please delete some data first and then try again"
So i opened "Files" to see my memory status.
Chone Memory
Free:387.0MB
E:Mass Memory
Free:12.4GB
I open details of Phone Memory and it says that Images take 5787 kb. I open image folder in it and theres nothing.
So what should i do ?

Hi Art808,
Welcome to Nokia discussions board!
Thank you for your post. Can you try to install(or reinstall) the latest software version using Nokia Suite to clear up any bugs.
Also in order to free memory, you could also remove or move the following:
Messages from Inbox, Drafts and Sent folders in Messaging.
Retrieved e-mail messages from the phone memory.
Saved Web pages. Clear the web browser cache to free some memory (select Options > Clear privacy data > Cache).
Saved images, videos, or sound files.
Contact information.
Calendar notes.
Downloaded application packages.
If there are applications which are not needed any more, uninstall them (select Menu > Settings > Data mgr. > App.mgr. > Installed apps.).
Any other data that you no longer need
If possible, use the memory card instead of phone memory in the Camera application (select Options > Settings > Memory in use to define the memory where the images are stored). You can also use Nokia Suite to transfer images and video clips to your PC.
If you are deleting multiple items and any of the following notes are shown: Not enough memory to perform operation. Delete some data first or Memory low. Delete some data, try deleting items one by one (starting from the smallest item).

Nokia 808 HSPDA solution

To summarize the 808 3G bug thread: Nokia 808 devices have a known bug (their capacitor is not handling the energy in low connectivity areas causing it to restart - or something of that nature using big words, I'm not an engineer ), Nokia has come out and admitted that this is a hardware issue and claimed they sent instructions to their care centers on how to fix it, then... Nokia did nothing. Very few people sending their phone to the care center are actually getting them fixed, instead they just replace them with more broken phones. Nokia technical advisors have also stayed completely silent on the forums lately. So what can we do to fix this?
Go to http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/reports/contact-us , Report a Violation of Our Rules for seller Nokia and listing ID B0087OXZ3K , then write in the comments that the Nokia 808 has a defective mainboard, is constantly freezing, the repair centers are not fixing the problem, and Amazon needs to take the product off until Nokia addresses this issue. Get everyone you know with one of these phones to do the same.
This is the only way something will get done.
Nokia is not fixing these phones, despite knowing what the problem is. They are ignoring tons of user complaints both on this forum and on Amazon's reviews, and are doing nothing to address this issue (issuing a recall or teaching their care centers to properly fix them). If we can make Amazon, their main US retailer,aware of the problem and suspend their sales, we might actually accomplish something.
It's crazy how little Nokia seems to care about customer satisfaction for its recently FLAGSHIP phone. The company's struggling in sales here in the US, meanwhile people support them by buying a phone that they can show off to others and boost the company's name, and Nokia sells them a broken product which it doesn't fix. If that's how they're choosing to support their loyal customers, the company doesn't have much of a future left for it. For now, let's at least force it to fix the broken phone it's been selling everyone.

Yep. Suggesting to "disable HSPA" to fix the problem is like a mechanic telling someone whose car shakes at 70mph that they should just drive 50 instead. That's not a solution. If a feature is broken it needs to be fixed, not ignored.
I agree it's not a showstopper, but it still really bothers me. They're spending more money sending everyone replacement phones that don't work multiple times than they would if they just fixed the board. Not to mention they're building ill will towards the company - I've read multiple people on here say they're thinking of buying the Xperia Z or another cameraphone. Instead of addressing an issue and having thousands of people walking around with an 808, taking great photos, then bragging to everyone about how awesome their phone is (creating tons of free publicity for Nokia), Nokia ignores this problem making people their phones or complain about them not working properly.
I'm still optimistic about themand I am long stock in the company, their technology is amazing, I just think they've been making some really poor decisions with this model.

SMS Blocker for Nokia 808

Hello I have a nokia 808 and I wanna know if I download a sms blocker what would happen to the other end. Will they know if I block them? What kind of message would they receive or just gonna show the message as "sent". Thanks!!!

i would assume that they wouldn't know, as that would defeat the purpose of such an application. probably would still show up to them as being sent. you can always try it with another phone you have in your house on a different phone number.

Nokia 808 internet connection issue / limited conn...

Hi I have bought a Nokia 808 yesterday and the wifi connectivity has major issues.
When connected to wifi access point it is almost always followed by limited connectivity.
I can browse the internet using the browser but the following do not work:
Setting up new email - tries to connect and times out
Maps - Cannot download maps, stuck on 0 % - keeps telling me that im not connected
Weather - doesnt update, always says try again later
Nokia Sync - Thinks its not connected to the internet
Pretty much all internet based apps think im not connected
But as soon as I launch browser it works and opens all pages.
Also stores sometimes opens and says its not available in your country. I want to know why Nokia is selling a phone in my country with local nokia company guarantee and local language support on software and on packaging, but somehow does not give our country access to apps.
I have a Level One WBR6600 modem, never had issues connecting. Updated to latest firmware. All other devices work on the access point, only the nokia has problems.
I have reset countless times to original settings
Deleted access point / re added
I have tried changing access point security to WEP , WPA , WPA2 , and no security, made no difference
I think the problem is not my modem, but the phone. I have tried Tethering from my iphone to nokia and still very limited connectivity.
I have been using iphones for the past few years, and this phone was only appealing because of the camera, but I am very disapointed with the software of the phone. I feel like I downgraded phones. Right now without internet connectivity its a pretty strange phone.
Also very strange to see that the phone has a wiered VPN setup. Its impossible for me to setup my vpn accounts on it, it is asking me for some policies, i think it only supports corprate vpn access and not web serving vpns, like ALL OTHER phones do, with the easiest set up.
please help.

Joikuspot not working on brand new Nokia 808

I've just purchased a Nokia 808 from Singapora and tried using Joikuspot. Unfortunately for some reason it fails to start a connection. I've made sure that BOTH mobile data and wifi are on as well. When I start the program, it asks if I want to start a connection (to which I say yes), I choose AT&T Internet and wait. I can see the 3G internet icon start up, but the wifi icon (or transmitting icon) never appears and the message "Connection failed, Connection unavailable" appears up at the top.
I've tried reinstalling Joikuspot (well, I purchased the premium version actually), reinstalling the phone software (via Nokia Suite) and doing a factory reset with no success. Internet and other apps seem to work fine under 3G and wifi as well so I'm not sure what's going on. Any information regarding the matter would be extremely helpful. Thanks everyone.
Jon
Btw, I've also contacted the people at Joiku and what they've recommended (factory reset, checking certain settings) hasn't worked either. :-(

Hi all,
This post is about using the third party application JoikuSpot in USA (and other FCC governed countries) and is copied to the following threads:

1) It doesn't matter where you get your Nokia 808 PureView from, ie it doesn't matter if it's a US, Singapore or Finnish variant.. If you are using that device on a network/carrier in the US, the device recognises this and is not going to allow you to make Ad-Hoc wlan connections, as per the regulations set out by the FCC.
2) I understand (this I am not certain on) that the FCC regulations came into force in 2011. Therefore for any device manufacturer since then, the device is not allowed to create Ad-Hoc networks otherwise the device manufacturer wouldn't get FCC approval.
3) The FCC restrictons are in this case technically talking about Ad-Hoc networks, not 'wifi direct' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Direct) networks that are used for example in Lumia 610/710/800/900.
4) I understand the US Variants of Nokia 808 PureView do not have JoikuSpot preinstalled.
5) I understand that US customers are not able to purchase JoikuSpot from Nokia Store.
6) JoikuSoft should be aware of this as they are making the software to create the Ad-Hoc networks. I will find someone to talk to JoikuSoft, failing that I will do it myself. I noticed a post from 'greentoy' claiming "According to Joikusoft Support, It should work fine in US, but they didn't know for sure.". Greentoy, if you're reading this please post me the JoikuSoft contact you had so I can sort this out with them.
It goes without saying, if you have Nokia 808 PureView in the US, and are using JoikuSpot successfully, then I am happy for you and don't want to cause problems for you, but I suspect the FCC would be happy to tell you about their feelings..
Are there any other questions I should be aware of using JoikuSpot in the US before I try to get in touch with JoikuSoft?
