Nokia is ignoring no.1 issue with Symbian phones !...

To all Nokia employees reading this :
Why is Nokia ignoring the biggest issue on ALL E- and N-series phones: the echo problem after a connection to non-Nokia bluetooth devices ??
This problem is ALL OVER THE INTERNET (including this forum)... I am reading about it (since i also have the problem myself) on every Nokia related forum out there .. and on every price-comparison website with user feedback.
This is really a bad situation. People at Nokia Care do not Care .. everytime I report the problem .. the response is : 'buy Nokia stuff' ... or 'this problem is new to us' (sure .. after a zillion calls .. still new).
Regards,
A very dissapointed customer.

I recall reading that someone changed the GPS receiver to fix such an issue (apparently the problem wasn't with the phone, but the GPS receiver).

Nokia 6500 on 3 - known issue with signal recepti...

Does anyone know if Nokia and 3 have yet developed a fix for the known issue with 3 reception on the 6500?
I just spent close to two hours talking to 3 about this. We got a 6500 "upgrade" from 3 and have discovered that the phone doesnt work anywhere around our home, or the locality of our home. We have reverted to a 4 year old 6680 from the back of our wardrobe which will show 4 bars of signal when the brand new 6500 shows no signal at all.
3 advised that very poor ability to get a signal is a known issue with this phone, however as we did not report it to 3 within the 14 day period they expect us to stay out the contract or pay a near £400 termination fee. (or take a much inferior phone which is "the only model we are authorised to offer as a replacement"). (The reason we didnt report it was that as we had been happy with our existing model we didnt swap the sim card over straight away. When we did discover it we tried 3's suggestion of upgrading the firmware (the phone arrived with a 2007 version) but this did nothing to help.
What really bugs me is that 3 contacted us in September and spent close to an hour an the phone persuading us to upgrade to the 6500. That's five months at least after it was a known issue and being worked on by Nokia and 3. (There are posts within this Support Forum discussing the issue that go back to April at least.)
I will be reporting 3 to trading standards but am curious as to what progress has been made (if any) on sorting this issue out?
I also thought it may be useful for others to be aware of as it will allow them to make a more informed decision about the phone, and about 3's attitude to their customers. We have been with them for over 5 years.
At one point, when I told the manager/supervisor that I had become aware of the fact that it was an issue that was well-known 5 months before 3 persuaded us to upgrade, he suggested that it was out fault for not researching the web and forums well enough, and that I should have discovered this before agreeing to take the phone.
Amazing.
Be warned!!!!!

Hi all - sorry I stopped monitoring the thread in the run up to christmas but thanks for your replies.
shumboy, redroxy, roslily, ginger25
very sorry to hear you are all experiencing the same problems and that 3 are as unhelpful with you as they were with us. my guess is that the problem with this phone is so widespread that they would let themselves open to too much cost if they started actually doing the right thing and replcing them like for like. I also think the suggesiton that the only way out of a contract is to pay out £260+ (£300 in our case) after it was their own promises of what a good phone it is, despite the fact that this significnt problem has been known about for months, that persuaded people to take the contract is tantamount to fraud and that certainly trading standrads should be informed.
gaz_level2 - thanks for the information you gave which confirms that there are known issues with H3G signals and the 6500 especially. I didnt understand some of the detail as I am not technical but I hope others seeing this post may get the info they need to make an informed decision should 3 continue with their despicable practice of enticing people into signing up based on what a great phone this is.
wafush - if you are considering 3 : NO NO NO
Ben - you are lucky to have a 6500 that is working (based on replies to this thread and on other boards) and you are right that people dont start threads complimenting phones. I started this one for two reasons: a) to see if/how-many others had the same problem and b) inform people about it and what help they could expect from 3 when the problem does occur
Steve/Hamraam - we seem to be in a ridiculous situation where the newest phones are actually less good at making and receving phone calls than phones of 5-6 years ago! They're brilliant for taking photos, browsing the web, playing MP3's. But for simple phone calls... ? And dont get me started on battery life! My old 6310 can last two weeks if I switch it off overnight. Most of the new phones require re-charging at least every other day and if you use push email make that once per day minimum.

I m having issues with the phone which i made a recording but the customer care support in our place donot seem to be of much help. i have told them nuumerous times that for better understanding i have made a video of it but no response.. really disspoint

who is going to help me out and atleast pay attention to what my problem is. apple seems to ignore my attempts to show them what is the problem... the dont even want to see the videos.. !! disgusting.
its still under warrenty. please help.

Take your iPhone to an Apple Store or authorized service center in the country where you purchased the iPhone and they will look at it and replace it under warranty if applicable.
If you cannot take it person contact them to determine how to send them your phone.
You can't expect them to replace your iPhone without first examining it.

It seems after the latest software update, my iphone 4 has issues with the phone and voicemail locking up as well as opening random apps. Any thoughts?

Hi clintfromid,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would recommend closing all your apps and restarting and maybe resetting as good initial troubleshooting steps for this:
iOS: Force an app to close

iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Just activated BlueAnt S4 with my iPhone4 and having an issue with the Phone Commands

Just activated BlueAnt S4 with my iPhone4 and having an issue with the Phone Commands - as I have multiple numbers for people (ie: iPhone, Work, Home), is it the BlueAnt that is having the issues or the iPhone? Tried to eliminate info on my partner's contact in with only 2 contact numbers (iPhone, Home) and one or the other is totally screwing up. Seems, from BlueAnt website, that it would be the iPhone contacts...and the guessing begins?!! Anyone else have similar issues when BlueAnt S4 was paired and giving 'Phone Commands'?? Any suggestions would be beneficial as I've spent way too much time on the web looking for a good fix/answer. Thanks.

On your new phone: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Start over, this time using your new ID.

Am I having an issue with my phone or is it local service?

Last week my GS3 like for most people updated to KitKat from Jellybean. Since then I have had a problem with spotty data coverage. I live in the 18951 area code but as I have wifi I didn't notice and issue with the data coverage since I wasn't using it. I work in the 19132 zip code and was down in the area of 19147 over the weekend and was having a problem. I don't have wifi at work and I have very long days where it would be nice to be able to use the data I pay for. Is anybody else having an issue? If not I'll just decrease my data package since I can't use it anyway.

@footballchick66
Software updates are intended to provide you a better wireless experience, not worse. I would love to assist you with your device issues.
I checked coverage for the zip codes you provided and they appear to be great 4G coverage areas. Nothing has been reported in the areas as well.
Please share more details of what you're experiencing with your device data. Does your device display a 3G or 4G signal? If so, how many bars does it display when this is happening? And are you experiencing any problems with voice calls or texts as well? Please let me know so that I can further assist. Thanks!

I absolutely hate the galaxy note 3!! I want to switch over back to iphone. There are so many issues with this phone!! There has got to be a way I can do this without spending crap ton of money. Its just ridiculous. I am livid

Overheating
Battery sucks
Apps suck
Phone freezes
Phone cuts off
Wall charger doesnt work
Not good signal
^^ These are all the issues that I deal with this phone!! I HAVE HAD FOUR OF THE SAME PHONES. RIDICULOUS. They all suck the same!! I want to go back to iphone ASAP. But between the early termination fee and full retail price it is NOT WORTH IT. I am about to just terminate my service altogether. I am sick of being stuck and stressed out over a mobile device!

Ambersikes17, we don't want you to cancel your service. Let's get your phone working properly. Are you using the original charger that came with the phone? If so, does it the phone respond to the charger if it is positioned in a different manner?
Have you noticed if the freezing occurs with certain actions like messaging or using an application? Are these issues that you have had with all of the devices or just your current phone? Have you tried using your phone in Safe Mode? http://vz.to/1d0SZSq

Compatbility issues with head phones

I'm not sure if it's a compatibility issue or not but here is what's happening.
I was using headphones other then the ones that came with my iPhone and it would pause automatically. I had to hit play again to get it to play again. It would work for a few minutes and happen again. I then used the headphones that came with my phone and it worked fine. The same thing happened in the car. I have to tape deck that goes into the tape player and connects to the phone and had the problem again. The car thing said it was not designed for the iPhone. The funny thing was that a few days before the headphone problem I used those same headphones with no problem.
Any ideas?
Lucia

Hi @locustacl ,
Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having a problem with sound. I will be happy to help you with this. First try the built-in Windows Troubleshooter mentioned in this HP document No Sound from Speakers.
Also, look at setting your headphones as the default audio device. This third-party link will show you how to do that. It is for Windows 7 but if you search for Control Panel and then go to Sound it will be the same as the link.

Now I have a new issue with this phone...

I said in my last post that this is my first smartphone, and I'm having some issues with it.
I played one of the videos stored in my phone, now it won't let me play any videos, it prompts me that " Device Media Processor is Busy"...
Also I noticed tonight that I have no sounds for incoming calls, texts, etc...I went in to try and "change the ringtones and it keeps telling me "Invalid Ringtone Selected, Please make Another Selection". But the thing is, is that these are the ringtones the phone is equipped with?!?! Has anyone seen this before or have any solutions?
Solved!

Is anyone having issues with bluetooth phone connectivity with iOS6 upgrade in a VW?

Any voice commands made through the car end up in "call history"

The problem is that you're using an uncertified lightning to 30-pin connector (the blue cable). If you purchase the 30-pin to lightning cable (either online, at an Apple store or an authorized dealer) it should work fine.
I have a 2011 Tuscon and tried the lightning to USB cable that came with the phone - no dice. Talked to my local Hyundai dealer and they don't have an eta on the Hyundai lightning cables (I'm sure it's in the works).
Lightning to 30-Pin Adapter (0.2M)
Part Number: MD824ZM/A
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter?fnode=48
$29 in the US store, $45 in Canada (yes, even though our dollar has been par for years)

Is anyone having issues with their phones deleting their notes randomly? Also when you delete an email, you have to delete up to 5 times sometimes before it actually deletes from your phone?

I can make a note and It deletes it, sometimes a week later sometimes 3-5 weeks later. BUT there's 1 note I've had for about 9 months and it's still there. I've had it since before the new iOS 7 system... And with the emails I can delete then and then they pop back up, delete again and there they are again. But it's not all the time. Just whenever it feels like it. And my phone isn't old, I've only had it about 3 months now. Is anyone else having these issues? They're driving me nuts!

Give it a go
Hold the cmd key (next to the spacebar) & try clicking a few messages. Command key looks a bit like a cloverleaf.
There are other shortcut keys as I mentioned before just try a few key combinations & you'll get the hang of it.
Once the messages are selected you can either drag them into a Mailbox or use the menus to perform operations like 'Mark as read' or 'Mark as junk' etc.
You may want to show the mailbox list (if it is hidden). This is in the 'View menu > Show Mailbox list'. It should make it easier to move the messages around.
The shift key is the one that lets you select a range, just select the starting message, then hold shift & select the end message.
I think it is harder to explain in words, so try it out you'll get to grips with it.
Good luck.

My iPhone 4s worked fine at 9am. At 9:30am all my contacts were gone. I got most of them back.Numerous other issues with my phone now. Send button sometimes grey. Can't add appointments.There is more. Help??

I got most of my contacts back, but there was no rhyme or reason for which ones were dropped. I literally called someone and had no problems. The phone was on my desk just sitting there. About thirty minutes later, I got a call from my wife and it didn't show her as a contact, just the number. That's when I realized all my contacts were gone. I retrieved most of them, but many are still not there. I did the latest update before all this happened. Now, I can't add appointments, I can't text some people, even after I add them to my contacts again, and I've got no idea how to fix this issue. Thanks for any help!!

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Having issues with IP Phones and the RV042 Router

Hello,
We have recently purchased Ring Central IP Phones and are having audio issues. We have a RV042 router with two WAN connections. We called Ring Central Tech support and were told that IP Phones will not work with the RV042 while loading balancing is enabled. Has anyone ever successfully setup IP Phones with a RV042 router while having loading balancing enabled? I configured the port range that the IP Phone use to be bound to WAN 1 but still having problems. Thanks in advance.

I Have the 5s but my screen keeps freezing up and I have to force restart on my apps!

Help with issues with cell phone when on Wifi in iOS7

Since I updated to iOS7 on my iPhone 5 (bought in Jan 2013), I'm frequently experiencing dropped calls. I have great wifi signal stregth and this is happening in multiple wifi networks so it's not the network itself. Also, those on the other end complain that my voice breaks up and they can't hear all that I'm saying.
If I switch over to the cellular network, I get much better quality, even if there are few 'bars/dots' of signal strenght in 3G. When I used the same phone on iOS6 on many of the same wifi networks, I didn't encounter these issues.
Has anyone else experienced similar performance issues? Anyone have any suggestions/ideas on how to troubleshoot and/or resolve?
TIA

Thanks. I learned something new. I didn't realize the cell calls weren't able to use Wifi unless through an app (e.g. Skype, etc.). So, I guess what's happening is that if I have Wifi enabled and make a cell call, it (somehow) affects the call quality. I can be in the same position in the house/building and my audio will break up for the folks on the other end of the call. If I turn Wifi off, it improves immediately and the problem goes away.
So maybe there's something up with both of thos things going at the same time. Now that I know, I can likely work around the problem. Thank you for educating me.
Cheers.
