Nokia C3 - Voice Issue

I bought a Nokia C3, last month and after 2 days of Purchase, I'm having problem with it's Voice clarity. Echo is there and a lot of distrubance was also there. I got it repaired through Nokia Care, but even after that, the Echo problem has not been solved yet. Some other people who are using Nokia C3, told that, even they are having the Same Problem. Kindly advice what has to be done .

Do you use a bluetooth handsfree or other bluetooth device? If yes, does this echo effect start after disconnected from the bluetooth handsfree and using the standard phone mic/speaker? Does the echo only exist on the caller's line (you don't have it, only the caller say there is a terrible echo on line) or if also you have the echo does the other person has a similar phone?
I have a possible explanation that the echo effect is somehow relating with handsfree devices and appears after disconnected from the device. But it is possible that also something else start it.
I have noticed that the only ways to stop the echo is either:
1) Reconnect the handsfree device then the echo voice is gone and the caller can continue speaking even if you later disconnect the handsfree during the same call.
2) Re-boot the phone and call back. It does not help to call back but you have to shut down the phone before calling back.
The same echo problem seems to appear in C5 and E5 and maybe also E7. I quess that it might be software bug because it always stops after rebooting and also trying to use a handsfree for a while helps.

  • Nokia maps voice on N78

    I have nokia maps voice navigation on my N78. It's not maps 2.0 so i think it's maps 1.2. My problem is that when it talks it sometimes misses the beginning of the first word, so "turn left" becomes "urn left". No major problem but it's annoying. Anyone else have this? The voice is english female, Ellen i think. Also, if i updated to maps 2.0 would my 18 month free licence from o2 carry over to it? Cheers.

    If you upgrade, your licence will still be valid.
    There is a bit of an issue with voices at the moment in Nokia Maps, if you use Map Loader to install voices, there isn't a male/female for most languages at the moment. My two languages French and Enlgish both only come with a male voice, and I'm left having to listen in Dutch (which I don't speak very well) to get a female voice.
    For this reason, it might be a good idea to make a copy of the voice files to your PC before updating - that way you can copy them back to the phone afterwards if you 'lose' your current voice in the process. I imagine it is a software issue causing your missing sounds rather than a problem with the sound files themselves.

  • Did iOS 4.0.1 Update fix Bluetooth muffled voice issue?

    can you guys report if the iOS4 update released Thursday addressed the problems with the Bluetooth connection/sound quality/voice clarity?? I haven't updated my iPhone 4 yet so I can't test for myself. But i'd like to know if the muffled voice issue has been resolved, thanks!
    (My bluetooth device: Plantronics Voyager Pro)

    omg.. okay.. i thought about going to Costco and buying a Jawbone just to test it out.. but sounds like you guys have tried w/multiple bluetooth devices and it's not helping any .. what's even more sad is you've also stated you've exchanged your phones and it still doesn't get any better. i was hoping an exchange would help~i have read some ppl's stories that they exchanged their phone and their bluetooth problems got resolved (one guy even reporting ,w/a pic to show, being ~40ft away w/no issues!).. i get about 20ft and my bluetooth just straight up disconnects!
    but this is the crazy story:: im having a unique issue in my kitchen (which is very very small!).. i put my phone on the dining table and walk 4ft to the sink and ppl say i sound robotic, like the Transformers talk in the movie.. but if i walk elsewhere (not into the kitchen), it seems to work ok. now i have a Nextel phone too.. i can repeat what i do and not have any robotic sounds.. i have never had any problems using my bluetooth with my Nextel or my iPhone 3G, never ever-ever!! whut the heCKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!?!?!?!?!

  • N96 Nokia Maps "Voice" & Bluetooth car radio.

    Hi, I have a problem with Nokia Maps voice and Bluetooth car radio. Although the N96 voice call works well through the car radio (tevion md 814508, Bluetooth version 1.2) the nokia maps "voice' does not come through. Also I would like to stream my phones MP3 music as well.
    Any ideas?

    Hi confiture
    A bit of an update.
    Like johndub in his post I've found that if I switch the car stereo to aux I do hear a voice but really crackly and distorted. You can't really tell what 'he' is saying. Play some music with Car Menu/Music Player and it's clear. Switch the stereo to radio (or off) and the voice is gone.
    This obviously is quite a bug. Nokia not being exactly 'joined up' when it comes to their hardware and software releases again possibly?
    "If you start car menu and do not activate the music player, instead move straight to navigation, selecting your route etc then it will mute the radio and send the guidance down the mono channel like a phone call"
    Unfortunately I can assure you this doesn't happen.
    I have noticed there is a software update for the CK-300 but I don't have the correct cable for the job. Any idea where I could get this done? I found a link for Nokia installers on here a while ago but I'll be damned if I can find it now

  • Nokia lumia 710 issue before and after send to rep...

    need some advice from the forumer/nokia.
    Just bought about a month but my lumia 710 already had an issue 3 days after bought it.
    had send it to nokia care center at the 1st time due to battery drainage issue but the profesionalism of the staff was too bad.not satisfied with their attitude also.
    had told them about another issue like zune can't detect my phone, sometimes can't heard what the people or someone want to said to me when i'm receiving the call. when call out a friend/somebody, they can't hear my voice. didn't receive any call in 1 day but after rebooting the phone got to many missed call log. had been told by my friend that they can't reach me when they call me and all the call that day has been forwarded to voice mail box.
    didn't know why it happened. had been send back to authorised reseller about this issue and my phone has been handed to nokia care center by them.
    after return from the nokia care center, had ask the reseller what is the root cause , the reseller said the nokia care center just downgraded my firmware/os back to 7.5 mango and said the problem solve. just use it back but my phone issue still arising. when receive/make a call the batteries drainage issue still exist. just talk about 5 minutes and the batteries was shown too be deplete but the main point is the batteries was shown 90% before make/receive a call. ?????????????.
    should i returned it back to nokia care center or get back my .....
    are they/the tech expert at nokia care center was too lazy or or lack of knowledge or not knowing of the level of troubleshooting method how to solve the problem and didn't know the root cause issue.  its about a month send it to nokia care center but nothing/useless due to the issue/problem was still there.
    check at the website support using the emei number, the repair/emei status didn't exist.

    1st: When i want to wake up my phone it lags, getting a black screen like 3 a 5 seconds before the lockscreen appears.
    I have this same issue with the 1600.3030.8773.12120 firmware as well as the original 7740 firmware.
    Funny thing, I tried to call Nokia Care phone support to report this issue and the woman told me it was not a problem and that I should "live with it". The nokia rep refused to submit my error report as she felt that "a delay of a second when turning the screen on is normal, and is actually very fast" 
    I was outraged that a nokia rep could talk to me in this way and totally dismiss my issue as trivial. I'm really mad and disapointed about this.
    I would hope that the Nokia reps on these forums have a bit more tact and will address and help us users with this confirmed issue.
    Question for nokia reps: Can this screen lag be fixed in a firmware update?
    Thank you.

  • Nokia BH-902 and Nokia N95 Compatible Issue

    Hi, I have just bought the new Nokia BH-902 OLED headset and manage to pair and use as voice call. However,it keep synchronizing the Recent Calls and nothing appear. Tested on Nokia 6120 Classic and same thing, synchronize and no effect. I guess must be the Phonebook Address Profile not compatible in N95 and 6120 Classic. Will there be a new firmware update in N95 to resolve the issue?
    My main purpose is to see who call, missed call, recent dial and dialed number. I had pay quite alot for this headset and end up only can see "Incoming Calls" and also no Recent Calls log. Please help. Thanks!

    is the BH-902 listed in the compatiblity list for head phone for N95? If it is, then you can demand a replacement! There really lots of issues regarding blue tooth devices. Bluetooth profiles differs from one manufacturer to the other, & even with the same manufacturers its an evolving & improving technology!
    Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!

  • Nokia Lumia 900 Issues and Questions

    I bought my Nokia Lumia 900 last March and it's running pretty well. It's fast and reliable, although I have some issues regarding it.
    1. When I'm in a conversation and I receive multiple text messages, I need to press the back button as many times as the number of messages I have received so I can go back to the menu. Not a big problem at all, but it can be quite annoying once you've already received a lot of messages and you try to go back to the messages screen.
    2. I don't have the compass. When I try to download apps, it says my phone is missing some features that the app requires, which happens to be the compass. The phone's specification (on the Nokia website) says that the phone has a magnetometer, GSMArena and Wikipedia both say that the Lumia 900 has a compass.
    3. It doesn't have Xbox Live. It's also included in the specifications that the Lumia 900 has Xbox Live, but when I go to Games, I only get Collection.
    Issue number 1 isn't that much of a problem, but issues 2 and 3 are very disappointing. I tried searching for ways to fix these and I found an article saying that a reset will fix the compass and Xbox Live issue. I did that, and when I opened it, I saw Xbox Live on my Start Screen but when I activated my Wi-Fi, it changed to Games and still no Xbox Live there. The compass problem isn't fixed either. To those who experienced the same issues, can you please tell me how you fixed it? Thanks in advance.
    Also, about the 7.8 update, I've been waiting for it for some time now and it's now available on my unit. Is it safe to install? I'm worried that if it fails it might make my phone useless. How long does it usually take?

    Hi Ronio9riku,
    Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
    1. Once you received multiple text messages, can you not open one message and then press the Start button to go back to the live tiles and select Messaging again to go to the next message?
    2. The phone supports compass (magnetometer). Have you tried to use the On-Device Diagnostic Tools to calibrate the Magnetomer? You can open the dialer and then input ##634#. Select Magnetometer and then calibrate the phone. Make sure that the location of the phone is On under Settings!
    3. The phone supports Xbox Live which you can access on the phone by selecting Games on the start screen or by going to the App List. However, Xbox Live is not available to all countries/regions. You can visit the link for the countries/regions supported: www.xbox.com/LIVE/countries.
    It's safe and recommended to update the phone whenever there is a software update offered. This improves the perfomance of the phone so why not connect your phone to your computer, open the Zune and install the update?
    For more information, see this link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/how-to/wp7/update-central
    If you're asking how long the update takes, it is usually 30 minutes to 1 hour.

  • Nokia Lumia 1520 Issue

    Hi , I had issues with my new nokia lumia 1520 and the issues are as follows: 1)Touch and display problem and screen flickering and doesnt let me use any app on the phone and even if im trying to unlock my phone, it inputs its own password and locks the phone again. 2)Apps not functions as if i click one app another app opens 3)Phone hangs 4)Phone gets heated up rapidly with usage of camera 5)Music volume control issue as with full volume, the phone is still not loud enough at times 6)Paint behind the phone is pealing off and Customer care people (Marathalli Nokia Care) took the phone and finally says that my screen guard is causing all these issue. whereas i was using this phone for 1.5 month without issues untill i updated it to latest firmware 1028.3562.1402.0001. please provide your views as to what can be done next as this phone is just 1.5month old and I have spent a lot on this phone?

    Remove the screen guard and take it back to Nokia Care, so they will not have a stupid excuse to refuse repair.

  • Nokia C3 - Battery Issue

     Hi,
    Please I need your support for my probelm with the battery of my mobile Nokia C3. The problem is the battery is not set long and every days need to charge .

    Homran

    Hello,
    My battery, since some days, empties himself quickly after a refill of one night, the load only holds then one hour it is necessary to put back it in charge.  
    I measured the tension of the shipper, it is 7.15V what is a lot for a battery of 3.7V, the tension of the shipper must not pass 5V to emptiness.  
    What thinks you of it ?  
    My English is bad, excuse me!

  • Nokia Belle Browser Issues

    Hello Again, 
    I have just encountered another problem with my Nokia N8 after the update to Belle. 
    My browser is just horrible - I can hardly see images on it because they are too blurry. My facebook dialogue boxes are too small and the pictures and other information displayed on the websites is extremely blurry and unrecognizable. To be honest, I have no idea how to approach the issue because with Anna I have not encountered such a problem. 
    Anyone, any solutions to that?? 
    Thanks guys ) 

    Unfortunately, I am not able to at the moment. 
    Still, let me describe it more properly - basically images are too blurry. For example, the Bing search page comes out with a picture everytime you load Bing. Well, the picture looks way too blurry in the Belle browser. Other example - please see m.facebook.com - the dialogue boxes match the width of the screen. Well, in my case, the dialogue boxes are way too small - they are hardly half of the width of my screen. 
    Images on facebook do not appear in normal size - rather, they appear as very small, tiny images which cannot be properly reviewed. For example, if you tap on an image to view, it would be almost unrecognizably small and blurry. Text appears to be absolutely fine, no problem with text under the new browser. However, images and dialogue boxes are a real problem. 

  • Nokia Music Licence issue

    rather annoying problem. I downloaded some tracks from the Nokia music store onto my 5800. Each time i did a software update i lost the licences for the tracks. even though i had backed up the phone beforehand. No Problem, i just re downloaded the licence.
    It has now got to the stage where i have used up my 3 licences for each track and The music store wants me to pay for the tracks again that are in my music vault. however, it won't let me do that. instead it comes up with an error.
    If i search for the tracks manually and try to purchase them, it takes me to my music vault where it comes up with the error again
    I can't even find a way to remove the tracks from the vault so i can go back and purchase them again.
    is it possible to remove all the tracks i have purchased so i can start over again?

  • Nokia E52 email issue since firmware upgrade (031....

    Hi guys,
    Yesterday i successfully upgraded my E52 to latest firmware - 031.012. After upgrade i removed all previous email accounts (1 MFE, 1 pop and 1 imap) and start a new setup.
    i have to mention, that i double checked that the email client version has updated to 2.1.0 (the old one was 2.0.5). There are also several visual changes during the email setup.
    Now here is my issue: I recreated my exchange email account and it works perfectly, but when i try to add a second email account (Email->New), choose one of the providers from the list (Windows Live for example) and proceed here is what happens:
    1. I get a promt to enter email address and password
    2.Then "Validating settings" and "Downloading terms" progress bars start
    3. After "Downloading terms" progress bar completes i am returned at the page where have to choose email provider again
    Is there someone with similar issue as mine when has upgraded to 031.012? I hope someone will give me a clue how to fix it...
    Thx in advance!
    Regards,
    Emil

    On E52 or E72 (I haven't checked on other handsets), The problem occurs only if you try to add an account which is previously registered on Nokia Messaging Website http://email.nokia.com/ or has been added as an additional account within the Nokia Messaging Account.
    Before adding/creating a new email account on E52 or E72, make sure the account has not been registered at Nokia Messaging Website or if it has been registered then make sure to delete those accounts before you add them in your phone newly.
    You can delete account from Nokia Messaging Website by logging in with that account first on the website.
    Remember that you have two ways to remove the account from Nokia Messaging Website.
    1- If the account was used initially to signup on the website (actual Nokia Messaging Account) then you need to login with that account and Cancel the membership. It will delete all the additional accounts if you have added any.
    2- If the account was added as an additional account in an existing Nokia Messaging Account, then again you would need to login with the Nokia Messaging Account and delete the account from the list as needed.
    Note: If you are wandering that you never manually registered on the above website by visiting it on your computer, then keep in mind that the account is automatically registered on the website when you try to add or create the account on the Nokia Email Client on your phone. This could probably be the case that you would have registered once in the past via your Nokia Email client or directly on the Website. In either case you would need to remove the accounts from the Nokia Messaging.
    I haven't read this any where but this is what I have got during fixing and finding the solution. I have created accounts on E52 (more than once after upgrading firmwares) very easily by following the above procedure. What ever it is, a bug? or an intentional reason, I don't know.
    I hope it could fix your problems with the New Nokia Email client built-in with E52
    Edit:-----
    Note1: You would have to wait for a few minutes after removing the accounts from the Nokia Messaging Website, before trying to add in your phone. 
    Note2: First add the Ovi Mail Account(make sure you have it signed-up and configured on http://www.ovi.com/) in your phone and then add any of the other accounts later.

  • Nokia N8 Charging Issue

    Is there any solution for the charging issue on Nokia N8? I even updated my N8 but the result is still the same.. The moment chargers pin is plugged in.. It shows... ''Unplug the charger to save energy'' and when the battery drains its next to impossible to charge it again.. Its truly frustrating.. I even tried to charge it using the USB Port when the battery drained.. But the result was still negative.. No signs or indications of charging!!!

  • Nokia N8, Camera Issue: Black spot

    Saw others have had the same issue.. and tried the "solutions"
    Black spot in same location on every picture / live preview of the image on the camera mode.
    tired cleaning the lens, does not work. Guess its a hardware problem/ faulty lens?
    need a bit of info before i go back to Virgin to get a new hand set

    I just had the same issue appear on my Nokia N8. I looked back in my pictures and it started about two hours ago based on pictures I'd taken (I take a lot!).
    Anyway I searched for the solutions you had referred to and found ones saying a shake of the phone resolves the problem. I tried but to no avail, I still had a dark spot. I read further about explanation of dust or micro-organism (and how this should not be possible as they units are sealed airtight in the factory) and decided that I would knock the phone against my hand (more forgiving than a wall or table) to see if this helped. Lo and behold the dark spot disappeared!
    It is worrying that there may be something falling around in front of the lens of my camera and just hope it does not reappear soon....
