Nokia Asha 501 Factory reset and keyboard bug

When you do a factory reset and restore the phone to the last back up point, your app store and xpress browser stops working. I have tried accessing the internet via wifi and not the mobile internet.
You just do the factory reset and download an app or surf internet on xpress browser, it works perfectly fine. However once you do the restore it stops working. You can surf internet using Opera mini, that means wifi internet is working fine on the phone.
Error on app store: 'Downloading Failed'.
Error on xpress browser: 'can't load this page at the moment. Please try again later'.
Keyboard Bug:
when typing in portrait mode, keys on extreme right side (P,L,backspace and enter) are less resposive to touch. Same is the case of the keys on the extreme left side (Q,A,Caps and symbol). I have to keep on touching in order to make it work.
Nokia team, please find a solution to this asap. My phone is not even one month old. This is really diappointing.
Let me know if you need more details.

About the backup and restore thing, i don't know why Nokia decides to cut out the good features. The backup and restore system in older S40/Asha phones worked better as users were allowed to select what is backuped. Backing up and restoring pre-installed apps always creates a problem.
I hope Nokia will update the backup application and include the option to select what is backuped. Until then the problem will remain.

  • NOKIA ASHA 501 CAMERA SHUTTER SOUND CANT BE TURNED...

    Dear Nokia ASHA 501 users there is a bug left by NOKIA in its ASHA 501 you cant switch OFF the camera sound there is ON?OFF slider which is left at ON mode by NOKIA its disabled at that mode you cant scroll it to OFF the shutter sound

    If you cant turn it off its set up that way for a reason,its common in most countries for this option to be locked,due to privacy laws.

    Go to Solution.

    Please release an update. I bought a Nokia Asha 501 in Singapore and the main purpose is to connect to my Nokia 360 speaker. The probe with Asha 501 is that it shows compatibility issues. Please fix the problem as I use the speakers very often. Would not have to trade my Lumia for Asha if I knew this would happen. Please release an Update ASAP!

  • Problem with Nokia Asha 501

    I have recently purchased asha 501 the problem is after recieving few messages it does not recieve more messages for that i have to restart the phone then i can able to recieve the messages .  It happen 3 to 4  times a day . it is not a network issue for that i have changed sims several times . even some time messages sent from other phones never recieved even though i have restarted phone several times and that is tested for several times .
    Kindly solve that bug in the next update of nokia .

    Hi Team,
         It is really difficult for me to send text messages in My nokia Asha 501.The following are the issues i am facing.Please provide updates.
    A)No option to send messages to contact groups (we cant create contact group).Even the basic nokia mobile have this feature.
    B)After  typing the messages we need to select contacts one by one by clicking on the + sign. No option to mark  many contacts  to send sms at a go.(Marking of contacts is a must feature of any mobile phones but nokia ASHA 501 lacks that.)
    C)i have around 500 contacts, so its  difficult for me to browse through all the contacts to select the one to whom i can send the sms.Also filtering of names is not of good standard some time filtering correctly and some times not filtering correctly.
    D) please concentrate on the basic features first then concentrate on applications.There is noway to delete or uninstall the use less Assasin creed demo game app that is pre installed.
    Thanks

  • Asha 501: VoIP, TLS and certificates

    Hi
    I've recently added sip account to my Asha 501. It works great when I use UDP or TCP transport, but when i switch to TLS it can't connect to the server. I think, this may be caused by self-signed server certificate.
    So, is there a way  to add my own certificates to Nokia Asha 501 ?

    Hi.
    I am trying to use TLS in voip environment  and I am in a cross roads.
    The guy who manages the asterisk server sent me two certificates: One CA.crt and another User.pem.
    I have been able to make the asha 311 accept the CA.crt (after changing it to a ca.der file, according to this post: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Asha-and-other-Nokia-Series-30/HOW-TO-INSTALL-ROOT-Authority-CERTIFI...
    But when I try to download the User.pem certificate, I get a message saying "no gateway reply".
    So, I have two questions. ONe is, do I relly need these two certificates - is it that the asterisk guy is over complicting things?
    The other is. if I need this pem file, how can I make the mobile accepct it?
    thanks in advance.

  • Software update instructions for Nokia Asha 501

    Hey,
    software update instructions for Asha 501 can be found from here:
    http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-update/new-nokia-asha-software-update
    By default your phone is set to automatically check for updates every 8 days and you will be notified when an update is available for download. If you want, it's possible to force the update check immediately by switching off and back on "Check via mobile data" setting from the “Phone update” menu. The size of the update is around 8 MB, so it's recommended to use Wi-Fi for the download.

    Nokia Asha 501 OTA software update onepager v1.1.pdf ‏361 KB

    Dear Nokia Software Employee,
    Thank you for the new nokia 501 update.
    However I am interested to get another new update concerning:
    1) Wireless configuration:
    It will include security mode of 802.1x, and EAP plug-in settings such as EAP-LEAP, EAP-PEAP, etcc....
    2) Keep applications minimized instead of closed:
    Sometimes there are some applications need to be minimized and not to be closed
    Ex: Applications such Athan, Prayers, Quran, etccc...
    3) Some Applications menu not working with screen touch but working with key buttons
    There are some applications that you cannot use the screen touch under the menu
    I will be greatful if the software will finalize the above suggestions
    Thank you and Best Regards

  • Trying to clear unread emails shown as  a badge next to mail icon, have done network reset and now a complete factory reset and checked server. Any other thoughts on clearing these ghost emails??

    Trying to clear unread emails shown as a badge next to mail icon, have done network reset and now a complete factory reset and checked server. Any other thoughts on clearing these ghost emails?? Also can we get our old keyboard back that shows lower case and upper case?

    Understood, the difference with iTunes being that Apple doesn't (currently) require you to enter any account info on the device until you try to purchase something from their store. Initial setup is just a connection to the iTunes software and you're good to go.
    While I understand that RIM wishes the account to be defined, they also need to be aware that doing so during the initial setup without proving an option to do it later, while failing to provide any means to change it afterwards (short of a device wipe) doesn't always suit the the situation. Hopefully they'll be reviewing the forums to gather feedback that they can incorporate into future software updates.
