Nokia E6 keypad back-light problem

Hi,
Is there any issue with Symbian anna (ver 022.014; date 2011-07-05)? When my display resolution is less than 50% with power saving mode off , keypad backlight is not coming. Anybody knows how to solve it? Will it be get resolved in NokiaBelle rollout?
Amit

Hi Amit,
This is a well known bug on the E6. It is reported to be corrected by firmware v25.
It is anyones guess as to when or if you will get that update.
Why not try and update your E6 now, you might be one of the lucky ones in Nokia's update lottery
PS. Don't forget to back up before doing an update.

Macbook Pro 13" Mid 2009: back light problem

Hey guys,
I was hoping you could offer me some advice.
My 13" Macbook Pro from mid 2009 has been having some backlight issues. Sometimes, after opening the screen, the backlight won't turn on. If I shine through the Apple logo on the back with a torch, you can see the log-in screen, so I'm pretty sure the problem lies with the back light.
I have tried ressetting the SMC and PRAM, yet that hasn't helped. The only way to get the backlight to turn back on is to remove the cover, unplug the battery, hold the power button for 5 seconds, plug back in the battery, put the cover back, and then turn it on.
So far I had to do this every 2 months or so, yet now the screen seems to die more and more often. As you can imagine, it's quite a pain having to go through this process over and over.
Again, any advice to fix this issue would be fantastic.
Thanks!

I appreciate the response, but my issue does not appear in the linked article as a reason to reset the SMC. Resetting the SMC seems like something too radical to fix something that should "just work". My MBP generally takes too long to wake up or doesn't wake up at all. If it doesn't wake up, I hold the power button and restart. Very annoying, since my wife can resume work on her PC faster coming out of Windows 7 hibernation mode.
Thanks, Apple!

I have one Compaq Presario C300 Laptop. Just before two days I have replaced the LCD with a new one. Now everything is working fine when I connect the charger. When I disconnect the charger power (Switched to Battery Mode), the laptop is working but LCD Back light gets off Immediately. Even in that state the laptop is working and I can see the Display in LCD without light. I have tried to increase the brightness of screen usin fn+F8 key, its not working. In Charger power mode every thing is ok. In DOS Mode and BioS Screen also same thing is happening. Then I have connected the Charger again backlight is not getting on. To get the display back I need to restart the PC after connecting the charger.
What will be the problem?
Can U help me. IS it any hardware failure.
Expecting a Reply.
If you've replaced the LCD then it's probably the LCD power inverter board that is the problem.

Screen\Back Light Problems with Creative Zen Visio

I hope someone can help me here.
A couple of weeks after i had bought my Creative Zen Vision M the backlight on the player would flicker until it eventually went out. The player works fine besides this. I sort of hoped it might come good (i don't know i suppose i thought the creative fairies would come and fix it ) but its been a few months now and the backlight still flickers .. Has any one else had this problem..Would downloading drivers or something fix the prob?.. any help would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks

Try Upgrading your firmware of the playerGo download section and leech the latest version there. If that still doesn't helps, i'll suggest you to exercise ur warrenty :smileytongue:

White screen/ no back light

Hi people
heres the brief history of my problem.
1. i had a new HD installed 2 years ago. 60gb (dont know if this info is important)
2. i had "the back light" problem for 16 months now. usually when i could find the sweet spot it would work and i just didnt touch it.
3. i DID drop the laptop like 2 months ago and the hinge/Screen is broken and is like a raggedy anne doll. but once again if i can angle it, it works and the back light comes on. BUT I HAVE BEEN PRESSING THE LEFT WRIST AREA; OR TORQUING THE LAPTOP HEAVILY TO GET THE LIGHT TO COME ON: BENDING FROM OPPOSITE CORNERS.
4. last night the cursor froze. i restarted with the PMU thing. didnt work, screen was black. i let it sit for an hour and then it did start up. i was able to get the light etc. hours later cursor froze again and now its very hard to find the light and when i do get it lit, its just an all white screen. the volume buttons work etc. as if it did start up, just that i cant see anything and no cursor, but i suppose it didnt start up.
ive been perusing the board for some time now. i cant start up with the utility disk. shift doesnt work, etc. and of course its dark sometimes so i cant even see whats happening, but nonetheless im pretty sure its still all white.
questions: is the blackness still a problem with the backlight hinge problem, or is not being able to find the lighted sweet spot also not in connection with the whole problem of not starting? is this the logic board? i really dont know what that means. is taking out the extra RAM i added when i got it in 2005 really going to possibly help anything?
im headed back to USA in two weeks to buy a macbook so i also wonder if all the torquing i was doing to get the screen lit could hurt the HD. is it worth it to save the HD from it and use it as an Ex HD,(so my files are saved) or does the problem ive explained relate to it and its probably the problem. i guess i dont want to buy the case to make it an Ex HD only to find out its shot. How durable are they etc? compared to the logic board etc... can i still boot up from my other ex HD now with this problem?
living in foreign country, during xmas, alone and now with no connection to home, or movies ... very sad
thanks

Hey mike,
2. i had "the back light" problem for 16 months now. usually when i could find the sweet spot it would work and i just didnt touch it.
That sounds like an inverter cable problem. It runs up the right side and can break usually near the hinge point.
3. i DID drop the laptop like 2 months ago
Yes they don't like that.
and the hinge/Screen is broken and is like a raggedy anne doll. but once again if i can angle it, it works and the back light comes on.
Right that would exacerbate your inverter cable problem.
BUT I HAVE BEEN PRESSING THE LEFT WRIST AREA; OR TORQUING THE LAPTOP HEAVILY TO GET THE LIGHT TO COME ON: BENDING FROM OPPOSITE CORNERS.
Ohh don't do that. The actual area is under the option - Apple keys that's where the graphics chip is located and it's on the bottom of the logic board. Put pressure there from underneath.
What is underneath "THE LEFT WRIST AREA" is your hard drive. There was a case here a while back when a poster was putting excessive pressure there, heard a grinding noise and their hard drive was dead from that point on.
4. last night the cursor froze... its just an all white screen.
So possibly hard drive is dead. Try starting it up in target mode. If it will do that then there's still a connection. If it can be seen by another Mac via FireWire then it's still OK.
Oh and Merry Christmas Mike.

Nokia E72-1 Black
firmware : 053.001

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Antonis,
I hope the below can answer your questions:
1- If you are using the Nokia C3-01, then the notification lights is indeed available. You can set it through: Menu>>Settings>>Display>>Notification details>>Set it to Show. At the same time, make sure that the light effects are set to "On". To do so, follow these steps: Menu>>Settings>>Lights>>Lights Effects>>On.
Once you set up the above on the Nokia C3-01, whenever you miss a call or a message, the notification light in the middle will work. It is actually located on the silver colored bar between the green and red buttons for calls. Also, the Nokia C3-01 has a very good battery life. Therefore, it might actually fit your requirements as it is a touch screen phone with a standard keypad for SMS typers such as yourself.
2- As for the E52 and the E72, they are actually both great phones and both of them have the notification lights. You can refer to the previous post for steps on how to set them up. But from personal experience, the light effects on the E52 is actually brighter than any other phone that i have seen. So, since you are also interested in the keyboard of the Nokia E52 for SMS purposes, I think you should go for that one.
3- However, as far as Blackberry is concerned, I would recommend you to contact them directly for any details or help on their phone's features.
In conclusion, if you wish to have a simple "Old Fashioned" but sophisticated phone, I would recommend you to go for the Nokia C3-01. However, if you wish to have a smartphone with all the above features that you require, then the E52 would be a great choice as well. All in all, the decision is in your hand

The back light of my nokia won't turn off

I had my Nokia in my shirt pocket while walking and I noticed it turned the back light on, I've tried soft reset, phone reset, letting the battery run out, but it still on!!! I just got the phone 3 months ago, what should I do?

Bring the device back to the point of purchase or to a nokia care facility.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

I know what is the problem of "Nokia 5500" Keypad!...

I have shown the glue of its keypad to some experts. All of them said that its glue is weak against temperature and I understood that My Nokia 5500 Keypad is unglued because of my pocket temperature.

Nice one, my friends had that problem aswell, thanks for the post

6280 back light

Hi, does anybody know of a way to stop the back light timing out after 10 seconds? This is really frustrating when trying to either play games, or just reading a long text message. I have scoured the phones settings and tried all combinations of within the display settings/Standby Mode / Screen saver / Power saver / Sleep mode, but nothing seems to help.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well it basically saves battery power, but no you can't change the brightness or how long it can stay on, nokia might make a new firmware for this problem

Nokia E71 time and date problems.

I cant ever set the time and date of my nokia E71. Anytime i access the time and date settings, it just doesn't go through. Please help me out.

Hi Faces1,
Welcome to Nokia discussions board!
In order to fix this issue, I advise you to perform a soft reset on your phone: type *#7780#. Default lock code is 12345. If the issue persists, perform a hard reset. First of all, back up your data using Nokia Suite (Tools > Back up). Once your data is fully backed up, type *#7370# on the keypad.
Alternatively, you may also check for updates on Nokia Suite (by going to Tools > Updates).
Then try to set the time and date again.
Let us know how you get on and feel free to post any other questions you may have.
Regards,

My iPad Mini display is dim so i can barely see anything and I maxed up the back lighting is it broken already??

Bought an iPad mini not long ago and the display suddenly went "black", there is absolutely no brightness in the display rendering it useless. I can make out the icons when i sit down in the dark and i can see the back lighting is set to max. I live in denmark and we have no apple store, its still in the warranty period, but where do i take it for repair? Can it be a software bug? I want to fix the problem fast. When i sit in absolute darkness with the wall plug connected I can see one backlight lighting up from the buttom right corner where the speaker is.

Assuming that you have a credit card in the UK, with a valid billing address for that credit card that matches the credit card statement ....
Launch the app store app. Go to the Featured Tab. Swipe to the bottom of the screen. Your ID is accessible in the lower left corner. Tap on the ID. Then tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Go down to Country/Region and change the store to the UK in there.

Nokia 6700 USB cable connectivity problem -fixed-

Ok, got my 6700 today. Everything worked like a charm, until I tried to connect it to my PC using the supplied USB cable. I downloaded and installed the latest Nokia PC suite which supports this phone (7.1.30.9) and connected the phone. Vista was unable to install a driver, and the phone was listed in the device manager as 'unknown usb device'. The phone display reported 'no response from host' after plugging in the usb cable.
I searched online for a solution, and tried the following:
- repaired the install of the Nokia connectivity cable driver: no success.
- deinstalled the nokia pc suite, ran the pc suite cleaner, rebooted and reinstalled the pc suite: no success.
- threw away the unknown usb device in the device manager and plugged the cable back in so that Vista would try to install the driver again: no success.
- tried other USB slots (not behind HUB): no success.
At this point I was so frustrated that I decided to take out the supplied 1gb micro sd card and transfer some data to it using a card reader. When I looked in the root of the sd card, I noticed that there was an executable called pc-suite.exe there, among some other files. I decided to delete those files to see if they were causing the problems, I deleted the following files:
- autorun.inf
- launcher.exe
- pc-suite.exe
- qf
Replaced the micro sd card in the phone, plugged in the usb cable and voila: connection! Everything worked like a charm.
During my online search I noticed I wasn't the only one experiencing connectivity problems with the 6700. Maybe this fix will help other people as well, that's why I decided to post it here. ;-)
Peter

Thanks Peter, nice job - same problem, your solution is working. Shame on Nokia - i have so many problems with E52, and now with 6700 - why ? Is it so difficult to make a reliable software ? So disappointed ... maybe Apple is the solution - but after 10 years with Nokia why change with Apple ?

No back light after hinge repair

Hello,
I have Power Book G4Ti DVI. It worked fine until I changed the RIGHT side broken hinge with a new one. The repair went "smoothly". Did not open the case- worked on the outside only. After that, I noticed that the back light does not work any more (can see faint images only). When I hook up to external monitor I am able to see things fine (on the external only). Did not touch the left hinge at all. 2 black cables over the right hinge seem intact.
Any suggestions of what might be wrong?
Thank you in advance...

Hi, Mac331. An inverter board can simply fail, without your doing anything to it. But if your right hinge has broken, the likelihood is very high that the backlight cable passing through it has been damaged and your inverter is OK. The only reason I suggest replacing the inverter first is to narrow the diagnosis down by ruling out inverter trouble. Doing all the delicate, risky work necessary to replace the backlight cable only to discover that it doesn't solve the problem would be a truly enormous PITA, even though the cost of the cable is relatively low.
To see what's involved in getting the display apart to replace any of the cables, look here. Read all the instructions and tips very carefully.

Got the old virtual keypad back.

Yep, as it says. The new virtual keypad in PR1.2 isn't a permanent fixture.
I downloaded the "D-Theme SimpleWaemo" from the Extras repo last night and I've now got the pre PR1.2 on-screen keypad back. Nice theme too.

When you go to your main App manager screen (the one with the 3 large icons), tap the top title bar then tap Application Catalogues. After a short while you will be presented with a list. These are the repositories, or as Nokia calls them "Catalogues".
If you go to an application's home page on your phone i.e: Rightware Kanzi UI and attempt to download the demo, the phone will tell you it needs to add that site to the "Catalogues" list or repositories before it downloads the demo. If you select "Yes", then the next time you view your Repositories/Catalogues list you will see "Rightware" has been added to the list
Okay -- I get the first paragraph -- did just the same and came up with these 4 options
Nokia Applications
Nokia System Software Updates
Ovi
maemo.org
Tapping on any of these only takes me to the settings..
I copied the url that was on "Nokia Applications" and tried to get on to the website (isn't that what I am supposed to do?) -- it came up with some certificate errors, and finally said.. Access Denied..
bottom line -- I still dont know if I am doing right, and I dont have the "extras repo"
I think you are a mind reader or something -- you read the Rightware thing that was on my mind. I tried to download the Demo thingy --- Lost on that too! :-)

Nokia E71 Manual Network selection Problems

HI
I have the E71 on the Three network and it allows roaming in this country (something thats usually locked off) to avoid roaming charges I went to change the phones network select option from Automatic to manual, I get the usual pop up to select the network I want to connect to but when I go back to the network options screen it shows as automatic and does indeed allow roaming. How do I actually change to manual network selection.
Cheers

I can't believe that Nokia have not resolved this problem.
The problem gives a direct influence on the cost of calls, which is very excessive.
I spent 3 hours on the phone to Three to try to resolve the problem and nothing worked. Tried removing sim card and putting it back in, factory reset and hard reset.
For a regular traveler this phone is a nightmare. Call charges can range from £0.25p to £1.50 and 0.12p to 0.25p. Also call charges may be applicable in the UK depending on your network provider.
Quite simply not fit for its purpose. A mobile phone by definition is "a hand-held mobile radiotelephone for use in an area divided into small sections, each with its own short-range transmitter/receiver provided by a specific network carrier".
Unfortunately the phone does not meet this definition. Under the Trade Descriptions Act of 1968 should be entitled to a refund as customers have been mislead by the sale of the handset. Also the phone directly misleads roaming customers.
Also under the Sale of Goods Act of 1979 the mobile phone should be "fit for purpose". Unfortunately the E71 is not fit for purpose as a mobile phone does not meet its definition and as a customer the network provider does not provide a fair service carried by the network. Most networks are contractually bound to do so.
If you have a problem with this phone please contact Nokia or your provider to try to resolve the problem and push the new firmware as soon as possible!
