Nokia E50 Hangs On Call Receive !

My friend and I bought 2 nokia E50 Handsets and face the same problem.
Atleast once in 3 days when I receive a call with the Green button, the loudpspeaker gets actiavted on its on and then the handset hangs. No pressing of any buton will help and I am compelled to remove the battery and restart the cell phone.
So I decided to use the Nokia Software (firmware) updater so I could re-install the software.
But the nokia updater only says that there is no later version thatthe current one. Sure there must be some way of installing the software again even though we still have the latest version. How is that done ? is ther an code we can use to reformat the handset and then use the nokia updater to install it ? Please reply.
Thanks Cyrus !

Ridiculous. I went from a trusty 6230 to this piece of junk, all in the name of Blackberry.
This phone has to be the slowest, lumpiest, worst executed piece of technology I've ever owned. The flickering as the OS refreshes the screen as you navigate is unbelievable. Blackberry only half works. And this, loudspeaker-broadcast-the-conversation thing is the icing on the cake. I'm only happy to see I'm not alone.
I hope someone at Nokia is monitoring this, becuase this is bad, real bad. Did they actually test the phone at all before shipping it?
Bethri, i know the "loudspeaker-broadcast-the-conversation" as you call it is **bleep**py. But it's really not fair to compare Symbian to Nokia series 30 software. It's comparing a smartphone to a regular phone. Sure is much slower and ehhhhhhh well....... you're right! Sorry Nokia. You guys just did a poor job on this one. Sure it can happen, but what's taking soooooooooo long to bring out a fix!Message Edited by ajak on 16-Nov-2006

    io7 on iphone 4s hangs when i receive missed call alert in lock screen?

    my son had this problem.  I went to the apple store and they wiped out and restored the phone..  They said that was all they could do but that I should call our phone carrier and ask them.  I did.  They asked if in the top left side, next to battery power there was a icon of a half moon.  There was. They said to go in to settings and go to "Do not Disturb" and turn it off.  I did.....problem solved!!! Somehow "do not disturb" was turned on and that is what happens if it is!!
    I hope this helps.

  • NOKIA 5610 Hang up when i receive sms!!!

    Hello.My new Nokia 5610 hangs up when i play mp3 and in the same time received SMS!All system freeze and i need to remove battery,because GSM Nokia 5610 did not response to my command!I have 4.81 firmware!

    Sadly it won't work for my phone though. Pressing the red button still won't do anything. The phone still freezes.
    It really is hard when you're taking photos, or browsing through the phone book looking for contact number, or listening to music, and the phone freezes.
    This has happened too many times in public.
    Shame shame on you Nokia.
    Please fix this bug. and my problem.

  • SOLUTION to NOkia E50 SPeakerphone/Loudpeaker Free...

    My Nokia E50 everyday would sometime or other on taking a call, automatically get on the LOUDSPEAKER mode and get frozen or hang. Nothing would let me switch it back. I would have to remove the battery only.
    Well the speaker phone bug I seemed to fix a while back. I hope it works for you too !
    I was pulling my hair out trying different things to stop it from hanging on the loudspeaker mode automatically on taking a call !
    I tried everything from changing the memory card, using no memory card, updating the firmware ! and also CHANGING the phone to another E50. But the problem was always there... Until...
    I just did...
    I changed the RINGTONE of LINE 1 from the default Ring tone to another ring tone AND also I changed the The ring tone on line 2 to a different one !in other words both LINE 1 and LINE 2 now have Different ring tones and none of them have the Default tone !
    Since then my phone behaves properly and no freezing for over a year now 1
    So I guess you guys can try it and circulate this info with others too
    Cheers - CYRUS !

    When using a 4G/LTE enabled phone in countries where 4G/LTE networks are not yet deployed or still under construction, there may be issues with calls, SMS, or data connection. In worst cases the phone SIM may be rejected by the network.
    In line with this, when a Nokia Lumia 920 is purchased in a country where 4G/LTE network is not yet enabled by the operator, the devices will be shipped pre-configured to 3G network connectivity to avoid these problems.
    If 4G/LTE networks become available later, it is possible to enable the capability with an over-the-air software update. However, I am sorry to say that there is no information on when this particular over the air software update will become available for a specific device.

  • Help on Nokia E50 please!

    Hi,
    I have Nokia E50 but i need to learn how to use it with bigger typing-writing format.
    My fathers eyes cannot see well so i need to set his Nokia E50 for bigger characters.
    Help me pls.
    Thank you.

    I do not know about the E50 but being a S60 3rd edition like my E60 should be equal. If my assumption is correct there is no way to increase font size. I was posting this issue long ago but no feedback for resolution from Nokia developers. The only way to partially resolve this is to use applications that allow you to select font. I'm using Best Full Screen caller for ID's and Papyrus as calendar. For messages and mail no application with font size selection available so far. If somebody has got more for messages and mails please post.

  • E71 Hangs During Call Reception

    I purchased my Nokia E-71 about three months ago. I expected this phone to be up to par since it is considered an "Enterprise" phone. This my second firmware upgrade. My phone's current version is 200.21.118. To my surprise it hangs during call reception. It totally freezes; even the red power on/off button is not functional. The only resort is to unplug the battery and plug it back on. It's very exasperating to lose a business call, especially if it was an international one.
    I call on Nokia to listen and pay attention to their customers and be responsible before it get deserted.  

    I understand your feelings but this is a user to user forum. There is no guarantee that your concerns will be seen by Nokia here and you will certainly not get a reply from them.
    If you wish to contact them, you should use the "Contact us" tab on the top right hand corner of this screen.
    With regards your problem, if it only started after the update then it is most probably a software issue which we would hope to help you resolve. We just have to go through a process of elimination, starting with the most likely and least disruptive.  Whatever you do, always remember to backup your data just in case.

  • Nokia E50 problem

    Since yesterday I've been having a strange problem with my Nokia E50. The problem is as follows:
    When an SMS message arrives, I don't hear any sound (even though it is set in the profile). In addition the "1 new message" prompt does not appear on the screen. The only thing that warns of a new message is the blinking light on the keyboard.
    This problem happened to me twice. The first time, I had to load the latest version of the Nokia E50 software. It fixed the issue for half a year. Now the same problem happened again. Is something wrong with my phone?
    Thanks,
    Darcorn

    Have the same problem with a N73. It seems that the phones branded by a certain network do not receive FW upgrades because the original software is modified to suit that perticular network requirements.

  • Nokia Messaging hanging often - 5230

    Howdy. My Nokia Messaging app seems
    to hang quite frequently. I cannot access
    my inbox without it just hanging. I can
    neither recieve my emails, I'm just
    restricted to sending them. Apart from
    the odd once or twice when it actually works on it's own accord, I haven't
    found a way around it.
    Help??

    Hello Madal, 
    I had this same problem on my E71.  To resolve this issue, sign up for the Nokia Messaging service on http://email.nokia.com first.  If you've already signed up, then log into your Nokia Messaging account on http://email.nokia.com and send yourself an install SMS via the "Install now" button.  After you send yourself a new SMS from email.nokia.com, you'll likely receive two SMSs, but disregard the one that has a download/install link in it since you've already installed Nokia Messaging.  You want the provisioning SMS that asks you for your Nokia Messaging password and access point.  Once you see that screen, you are good to go.

  • Nokia E50 video playback

    I have converted video files from flv to 3gp and saved it on my E50 using PC Suite. When I play the clip with Real Player version S60.30.20.01 A, I can hear the sound but no clip. Could anyone please advise on what could be the solution to this? Some other 3gp videos are working alright. Thank you very much in advance.

    Nokia E50 video resolution: 240 x 320
    I ever met the same question with you, and my bro fixed it up with something called video file converter. It is simple, This video file converter is already optimized for output setting for mobile phone, so just  encode ur FLV files to 3GP format again and there will be normal.

  • Nokia E50: "This device is not supported by iSync"

    Just purchased Nokia E50 (series 60 smartphone) but I'm unable to add it to my iSync devices. I keep on receiving this message, "This device is not supported by iSync."
    I purchased it because it was listed as a compatible device on http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html
    I'm using iSync Version 2.3
    Very keen on getting it to work/sync.
    Please help.

    You might be better off getting a new cell phone. From what I can gather, the W490 is quite old. If your cell phone plan's expiration date has passed, it should be easy to convince your cell phone carrier to replace your cell phone with a compatible version for little or no money simply by telling them that you will switch to another cell service provider if they can't give you a good deal on a new cell phone, but of course, make sure it is compatible with iSync on Snow Leopard. Here is a pointer to Apple's iSync device compatibility guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2824

  • Weird problem with my Nokia E50

    Hi guys!
    I don't know whether this topic has been discussed before but I have a very weird problem with my Nokia E50. The problem is as follows: whenever I receive an sms message my phone remains silent (no vibration or sound) even though vibration is turned on and the sms sound is chosen, the phone is at full volume too
    I've tried changing the profiles from General to Outdoor but the only sound I get is from keypresses
    I don't know what went wrong. I'm totally stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Yes, I had same problem with Nokia 5500 and now with E50. This happens sometimes within call and sometimes even during incoming call ringtone.

  • Nokia E66 problem with call Logs

    Hello,
    I got the E66 like last week.
    102.07.81
    12-07-08
    RM-343
    I'm having a probelm with the Call logs. usualy, i should be able to go to call logs (missed calls, received, etc...) select the desired number and hit on dial; however, the phone does not respond. i press and nothing happens...
    today it happened with the phone book... i searched for a user, and then pressed on dial but still nothing happens... i had to type the numbers....
    is it a bug or i'm missing something?
    BTW, i had to disable Rotate function as it is TOOOOOOOOO sensitive, a tiny move and it will switch the screen.

    Hi Zahi and All.
    I bought nokia E66 on August 1, 2008.
    I got an issue very similar to the one reported by Zahi about call Logs: after some hour of use, I can't make any call neither starting from the call in the logs or from the phonebook: when I press the green button there's no way to make a phone call.
    The only way to use the phone again is to restart the phone.
    It sounds really like a bug...and i think that this is not an admissible bug for a phone that costs more than 400 Euros...
    Hope that Nokia could fix asap the problem.

  • Calling Receive activity in mid of BPEL process

    HI,
    I have a requirement where i need to read data from XML file and store into Database.
    I am using File Adapter and Data base adapter for this purpose. I am able to do this operation by having one Receive activity (To read file) and one Invoke activity (To write on to DB). whenever I deploy process an instance will be created. but i do not get test URL.
    I tried to call receive activity inside BPEL process which has no input. This gives me test URL. but Receive activity to read file is not getting initiated. it'll be pending.
    How to solve this ?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    First thing you need to decide is, how you want your BPEL to start, do you want that to start by calling it (this means you need to expose it as a web service) or start it whenever a file is available (file adapter will be a service and you are doing polling here). So, if you are doing the second thing, for that composite in the EM console, there will be no test button, because it is not exposed as a webservice. If you do like this, there will be a receive activity inside the BPEL (first activity in BPEL). If you want your BPEL to start whenever a file is available as well as exposed as a web service, you need ot define the BPEL based on the WSDL of file adapter service as well as exposing it a sa web service. If you do this, you need to keep the on Message activity inside your BPEL and design your flow accordingly. and in file adapter, you also have an option of reading the file outbound (synchronous read operation), but this doesn't solve your purpose i guess...
    Let me know...
    Thanks,
