Nokia BH 501, unstable connection please help

Hi
I just purchased the Nokia BH 501 stereo bluetooth headset. The sound quality is OK, but it has been very unstable espesially when I'm walking with my phone in my pocket it keeps falling out. I'm using it on a Nokia 6120 Classic. Is it anything I can do to improve the stability?
Please help!

Hi All,
I am having the same problem. I have a 5310 Xpressmusic and I basically can't move at all with the bh 501. This is a very poor product as I bought them to use while exercising, usually walking, but it is the same on the train or whatever.
It doesn't matter what pochet or whatever it is still the same problem - constant drop outs!
Also the volume is not loud enough and it barely can cope with the sound of the tram (I live in Melbourne Australia) when I catch it to work.
I am really very angry about this and have been putting comments that the product is lousy on technology evaluation sites.
Have a look at http://www.cnet.com.au/mobilephones/accessories/0,239025938,339273962,00.htm
and you will see many comments along the same lines.
Is Nokia going to lift their game and tell and fix this problem for us or give our money back???
FIX IT NOW - COMPLETE RIP OFF!!!!!

  • I suppose it is the problem with socket connection,Please help

    Hi,
    I'm trying to build a chat server in Java on Linux OS.I've created basically 2 classes in the client program.The first one shows the login window.When we enter the Login ID & password & click on the ok button,the data is sent to the server for verification.If the login is true,the second class is invoked,which displays the messenger window.This class again access the server
    for collecting the IDs of the online persons.But this statement which reads from the server causes an exception in the program.If we invoke the second class independently(ie not from 1st class) then there is no problem & the required data is read from the server.Can anyone please help me in getting this program right.I'm working on a p4 machine with JDK1.4.
    The Exceptions caused are given below

    public class Messenger {
        Socket connect;

    Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes has no affect on the media on the computer or the account it is linked to.

  • Nokia N8 sim card problem please help!!

    I have been the proud owner of a Nokia N8 for about 9 months now without any problems or issues jus some random bugs...since N8 is a troubled device as we all know. But anyways jus now it has come up with lots of issues...at first my phone started to restart as soon as the phone started up. Even before all the apps loaded up and i tried around 15 times to switch off and start and stuff. But to no avail...so i went on some forums and blogs and got some tips like resetting it by holding down the power button for 8 secs and everything but still the same problem. Now, I removed my sim card and put in a different one and VOILA it worked!!! No restart so I thought maybe the older sim was faulty. but as i put the old sim in another phone...it worked in that phone! I was dumbfounded as the sim was working on my n8 before toO! ......so i just ignored it and i used the other sim in my n8 but not for long after half an hour the phone was not starting up sim card or no sim card. so i flashed my phone to the official Symbian Anna and i tried booting up without a sim card and the phone works properly. but as soon as I put in the sim card and switch the profile to normal mode..the phone freezes for about 5-6 seconds and reboots only to find my phone in offline mode again and same problem. I have tried changing sim cards nd memory cards, reset, reflash, format the mass memory, and everything else possible but in vain. The problem still exists!! Can anyone please help me as Im very fond of the phone and I dont want to send it to the service center as they would come up with some lame excuses + i hav lost my warranty card!! Please help....and btw the phone works flawlessly without a sim card! And also, in offline mode when i switch on the bluetooth...the phone freezes and restarts! Evn the WLAN keeps on searching for network and doesnt find any even though there is! Any help would be appreciated... thank you!

    Just want to say "I dont have my warranty card"
    No official Nokia care point will say this as they can check the warranty satus online using your IMEI number- if they do not do this, either insist they do or report them to nokia care direct and lodge a complaint. (0845 045 55 55 from the UK)
    Even if the warranty has expired online, this can be extended if you can provide a proof of purchase date. This can be a delivery reciept if you bought online, or your high street retailor will be able to provide you with a copy if you ask them- even your original service agreement should be enough. Remember you get a full 2 years warranty with all Nokia handsets. 
    Nokia Care are there to help, not to make things difficult for you. They go through untold amounts of training to ensure you get your handset back as soon as possible in a fully working order. 
    I feel bad you feel such reluctance to contact a care centre, Nokia have gone to massive efforts to provide consumers with this kind of readily available support. 
    If you are in the UK and your local care centre is not helping you I would suggest you call the one i use, they will give you all the advice you need 01242 539539 (i hope giving out this info is ok on the forums)

  • Very slow connection, please help!

    Hi all
    I hope someone here can give more help than the BT call centre. 
    My speed has dropped dramatically over the last month. I have gone from getting around 3.5mbps-4mbps to now less than 0.5mbps.
    I have done the BT speed test and I have also copied the ADSL settings and status. I have pasted this below.  
    Can someone please advise me of any advice as I am stumped. I would consider myself pretty computer savvy but I am completly at a loss with this.
    This test is done using a wireless laptop whilst the Homehub was plugged into the test socket located on the master socket. The speed tests are identical to when I do this on a wired desktop and the Homehub plugged into a different socket. 
    BT Speed tester results
    Download speedachieved during the test was - 465 Kbps
    For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 50-500 Kbps.

    BT have advised that the speed test is the maximum I can receive on my line but the homehub shows a massively higher speed. I'm confused. 
    Please help me!
    Many thanks
    Lee

    welcome to the forum
    you have a 5mb connection but your noise margin is a bit high at 11.1 as normal about 6.  the real problem is your profile is down at 500 instead of 4500 and this is probably due to the resets/disconnection which eithe you have done trying to improve your speed or the hub has done on it's own.
    if you stay connected 24/5 for 3/5 with no resets/disconnections your profile will rise to 4500.  you may find later that your noise margin drops to nearer 6 with a slight increase in your connection speed

  • 40GB IPod Click Wheel Freezes iTunes When Connected - Please Help?!

    I have only had my ipod 3 months and it was given to me as a present so the ipod thing is quite new to me.
    Recently my ipod froze and after reseting as per instructions it showed a folder icon and apple support.com.
    I turned the ipod back on after that to find all my music files gone, i tried connecting my ipod back to my lap top to download the music again but iTunes just freezes.
    I have also placed my ipod in disk mode to completley restore it but i cannot do this if iTunes wont recoginze its there.
    I am completely lost and gutted that after only 3 months i have lost faith in the ipod already and just listen to my music through my lap top at home now.
    I left all my cd's back in england before i came to oz and have nothing to listen to in the car now.
    Can anyone please help?
    Thanks in advance

    I guess nobody else has had this problem?
    Does anybody know if you can e-mail apple direct to express how useless their services are or even to try to get an explanation from them of how to correct the problem before i throw their ipod in the bin?

    If the phone won't start up, all you can do is take it to a service centre for repair. If your phone is under warranty, then damage caused by something going wrong in software updater is covered as a free repair.

  • Nokia Lumia 520, Several frustrations please help.

    Just brought a Nokia Lumia 520, seemed like a good choice some cpu/gpu/ram as the 720, bigger screen than the 620, would have got the 620 if it was a 4" screen. 
    I use a smartphone for these reasons.
    Text: Nokia 520/Windows Phone does this well.
    Calling: Nokia 520/Windows Phone does this well.
    Email: Nokia 520/Windows Phone does this well.
    Reading articles/browsing the web: Frustrating.
    Internet Explorer doesn't display a large number of pages correctly.
    When a website has a menu (links) to swipe through instead of swiping to the next one it both swipes and opens the link, every time. m.IMDB.com for example.
    What can I do about this?
    Music: Frustrating. 
    The volume button on the 520 seems very cheap, it's just a loose bit of plastic on the case it's self, is this normal?
    I'm currently a premium member of Spotify, the Windows Phone Spotify app forgets when settings are changed, when I try to stream in high quality it always goes back to normal (which sounds pretty bad). There's also no "extreme" quality option.
    Xbox Music Pass, this just seems like a really poorly made app, I've signed up for the premium streaming (as a Spotify alternative). But to get to it I need to click on store\then music, type in the artist I want, and once the music starts, i need to constantly click the "..." button the "more in store" button to change songs within the album, the list it's self doesn't even show you which song is playing, you need press the "<-" button to see the title. And on top of all that instead of the nice clean background there's a picture of the artist, but the picture is stretched and blurred and looks horrible, very off putting.
    Also is the a way of seeing the "status bar" type info without pressing the volume button?
    Please help me, I'm tempted to go back to Android but really don't want too.

    If you hold the back button down without letting it go then all screens that have been left open can be scrolled across screen 1 tap on desired screen opens it as start screen. Same with internet explorer hit the .......... At bottom of screen select tabs and it puts every page visited as a small tile with a. X in corner they can be closed in seconds in the one screen without ever hitting the back button. Hope this is helpful.
