Nokia N70 advice if possible?

Hello,
I have recently gone over to O2 here in the UK and got a Nokia N70 phone, I've so far sent two back after having them for one day, with a fault, which is a buzzing noise in the earpiece when the backlight is one.
I got my third replacement through yesterday and its doing the very same thing, in addition, on some calls I'm getting a very strong echo of my own voice coming through which is very off putting.
This is the first time I've had a Nokia in a while and am so far very dissapointed.
I am using Firmware version:
V 3.0546.2.3
18-11-05
RM - 84
Is this a faulty batch of phones and is there anything else I can do rather than have to return yet another one, I'm beginning to think I will not find a working Nokia phone at this rate.
I've not installed any software on it, just synced it with my Outlook on my PC.
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated if you can.
Kind Regards

Just a quick thought: Reading the posts here, it would appear that the problem is brightness related. If the O2 theme has a bright colour in the background, maybe if you changed the theme to the default and also turned the brightness down the buzzing on the incoming audio will decrease or even go away. Let us know how you get on..... Gadget
No, sadly that is not the problem at all, I had only used the default theme from the off, and still do, and tried turning the brightness down but with no effect on the noise at all, unless you actually turn the backlight off completley of course.
When your on a call it buzzes for about 40 secs and as soon as the backlight switches off, the noise dissappears totally, soon as you press a button and the light comes on again, the noise comes back with it.
I've just accepted it is the way the phone is now so will put up with it, but to be honest I now feel its put me right off and I won't buy a Nokia phone again in future. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.
David

  • NOKIA N70. IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE???

    NOKIA N70 - DIALLING ITSELF
    Could you please advise me on this issue to clear it up with my mobile phone provider.
    For the last two years I have been using this phone with a prepaid card, without any problem.
    From 6th April 2010 I took a phone plan with TPG and took one call.
    On the 9th from 12.47pm TPG charged me about 24 times dialing Optus Assistance number - 0731001356 - Connect 2, with each call costing $1.10.
    This happened again on 9/4 another 22 times and again on 18/4 & 19/4 another 24 times.
    Each call lasted around 10-20 seconds, occuring one after the other with a few seconds inbetween them.
    I don't have this number on speed dial.
    TPG advised me that there was on error in their system and that I had made the calls.
    When looking at the calls, on more than one occasion there was 2 calls to this same number at the same time. Before one call had finished, another had started to that exact same number.
    Each lasted roughly 10-20 seconds.
    How is the phone dialling again, and the call being received by the other number before the first call is finished?
    Another thing I noticed is that these calls are not recorded in our phone as outgoing calls.
    It only comes up in their system, but there is no record on my dialled numbers history.
    Do you agree with TPG, that the phone is at fault and not their system?
    Can the phone erroneously dial itself, with no record on the dialled numbers history?
    If you could help me with this matter I would be very grateful.
    Thank You

    As hrs1364 said, your phone is likely having a virus. The N70 works on the old s60v2 operating system which is prone to viruses.
    However, the virus could either be in the phone memory, or in the memory card. The procedure specified by hrs1364 would only work if the virus is on the phone memory, but not if it was on the memory card.
    I would suggest you to remove the memory card and reboot the phone, and use it without the card. If it behaves normally without a card, then the problem is on the card which you have to format. If it keeps on acting up, do a hard reset.
    Remember that doing a hard reset erases all your data, so be sure you have a backup of contacts, messages and calendar. Do not backup or restore settings and files as the virus would be included in the backup.

  • Help with Nokia N70 + Belkin Bluetooth USB + OS 10.4.6

    Hello
    I've seen previous threads relating to the problems Apple's Bluetooth File Exchange has in recognising/pulling up the contents of a Nokia N70. The advice for N70 users wishing to transfer their photos to the Mac has been to send photos individually from the Gallery in the N70. This process doesn't even work for me, despite the fact that Bluetooth File Exchange and iSync both recognise my phone just fine.
    My questions therefore are:
    -- Is there a known solution to Bluetooth File Exchange's inability to list content of a Nokia N70?
    -- Is there another Bluetooth application (shareware or other) that can do what the Bluetooth File Exchange can't (in this case)?
    -- Why can't I send photos individually from the N70 to my Mac? Is my Belkin Bluetooth USB Adapter (Class 2; v1.2) not the right thing?
    Help please!

    It works fine for me, I can even mark several of them and send them in one operation.
    Since you are concerned about your Adapter, why don't you try the procedure in a Mac with 1.4.7.

    Hello,
    I am interested if it is possible to charge my nokia n70 ME through usb data cable, and if it is, what is the required software for that? Doesn't seem like PC Suite is offering this kinda of feature.

  • Nokia N70 as a modem

    Hi Guys
    I want to use my Nokia N70 with my MBP as a modem, however, after reading all the posts and tips I still do not manage to get it going. It either disconnects before establishing a connection, or it does not connect at all. Can anybody please assist?
    Regards
    Mike

    I wrote up these notes for using the Nokia N70 as a high speed 3G modem via Bluetooth and for using iSync. The first step is to pair your phone through Bluetooth and to sync. If you have already done this, skip to step 2. Be warned: you will need the agreement of your network carrier to pump data through their system via your account.
    Step 1. Synching the phone through Bluetooth
    i) On the phone turn on Bluetooth: Menu -> Connect. -> Bluetooth -> Bluetooth "On" & Visibility "Shown to all"
    ii) On the Mac turn on Bluetooth in the Bluetooth System Preferences (Control panel) pane: System Preferences -> Bluetooth -> Settings tab -> Bluetooth "On", "discoverable" and "show in menu bar" checked.
    iii) Pairing from the Mac in System Preferences: Bluetooth System Preference -> Devices tab -> Set up new device -> Follow prompts -> Select device "mobile phone" -> enter the 6 digit code on the phone -> Review mobile phone set up checking both iSync and phone's data connection and the higher speed connection option -> ignore the final phone settings screen as we will set this later -> Continue & Quit.
    iv) iSync will have launched in the background having recognised your N70. Click on the phone icon and configure the sync as required but take care as follows:
    a) on the first sync overwrite the phone data and load the data from the mac
    b) for safety's sake back up both iCal and Address Book before syncing (-> File -> Backup). If necessary both applications have a Revert option just below Backup.
    Step 2: Setting up the 3G modem
    i) You will need a modem script as the default Nokia infrared script in your main Hard Disk Library folder will probably not work. A choice of better scripts can be downloaded for free from Ross Barkman's home page http://www.taniwha.org.uk - > Look for Nokia 3G scripts and download the compressed Stuffit archive NOKIA3G2004-12.sit -> A double click will open the folder containing a Readme and two versions of the script NOKIA 3G CID1 and NOKIA 3G CID2 -> Drag both into Hard Disk -> Library -> Modem Scripts
    ii) You will also need to know the APN - the "number" dialled for your telephone supplier's network connection. You can find most of these details on Ross Barkman's GPRS page at http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html. When you have scrolled down to the UK and your supplier's details note the APN, the username and password and also the smtp outgoing email server so that you can send email from your laptop using this connection (See below for instructions on adding this to Mail.)
    iii) You will need to set the Bluetooth networking preferences in the System Preferences (Control panels) - System Preferences -> Network -> Location dropdown "Automatic" is fine -> Show dropdown "Bluetooth" -> Bluetooth Modem tab ->select modem script Nokia 3G CID1 -> PPP tab -> Name of Service Provide eg T-Mobile -> Account Name & Password "Username" & "Password" as found at ii) -> Telephone number "APN" as found at ii) - > Check Save Password -> PPP Options uncheck "Send PPP echo packets" (Ross Barkman's advice - see his Scripts Read me) -> Apply Now to finish
    iv) You will need to Launch Internet Connect form the Applications folder. In Internet Connect choose Bluetooth -> Configuration drop down "Your Mobile phone supplier as entered at iii) -> Check "Show modem status in the menu bar" making it easier to grab Internet Connect again from the modem symbol. Check that the N70 still has Bluetooth switched on -> Click Connect. You can disconnect from here. Not quite as amazing as broadband with something of the flavour of 56k dialup, but pretty good at near 384 kbs.

  • Syncing multiple calendars to a Nokia N70

    Hi there
    This is my first post and I hope I'm not duplicating any previous ones.
    I have just bought a new Nokia N70 and I am very pleased with it - I'd highly recommend it as a solid phone. In the near future, I'll be getting a GPS for it and also hope to use some kind of Office package on it.
    I'm using OS X 10.4.6 and found, once I'd activated Bluetooth, iSync worked straight away and synced my Address Book (with pictures) and iCal. My question is this though - has anyone tried syncing multiple calendars and kept the categories on the phone?
    The built in calendar on the N70 doesn't appear to support categories, well certainly nothing you can customise, so I downloaded a trial of AquaCalendar which does. However, when I synced, all the category information was lost. Syncing back to the Mac, you can tell iSync to place items created on the phone to a specific calendar, so that's ok, it's just the other way around.
    Basically I have 4 calendars on iCal, 1 for me, 1 for my wife, 1 for Birthdays and 1 for UK Hols (subscribed) They have a particular colour and love the way iCal shows them. What I want is to transfer this colour set so I get the same thing on the N70. Anyone had any sucess with this?
    Many thanks
    Simon

    langert3,
    You would have to upgrade to Tiger to publish several calendars as a group.
    Publishing calendars to .Mac: If you're using iCal 2.0 or later, you can create Calendar groups and publish them to .Mac. If you publish a Calendar group, all the events and To Do information from the calendars in the group is merged and published in one calendar. You can also choose to publish individual calendars in the group.Unfortunately that feature is not available in iCal 1.5.5.
    ;~)

  • Nokia N70 starts with a white Screen.

    Hi all,
    My nokia N70 starts with a white Screen and does not go any further. It does not make any sound while starting. When i connect it to the PC it is not detected by the PC while the phone is on showing a white screen. I have tried performing a Hard reset using the *3 and the green key but it is not formatting either. I also tried updating the software but as the PC is not recognising the mobile connection the updater is not working either. I am using the latest PC suite.
    Please help...

    Remove the battery for at least 5 minutes and then replace and see if that makes any difference. Also try removing the memory card.
    If the above two don't work then try these.Always remember to backup your phone before performing resets as your data may be lost.
    First try these
    *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default 
    *#7370# - Reformat your phone
    If still not working
    Then try the "3 finger deep reset". With the phone powered off, depress and hold these three keys simultaneously "*" "3" "green phone" and then power on phone using the on/off button whilst keeping the three keys depressed until you hear start-up tone.
    This should ONLY be done if the device doesn't power up normally anymore and it wipes everything in the Phone memory that is not part of the ROM.

    I am afraid it is most definitely a hardware problem. You will have to get it fixed at your nearest Care Centre.

  • Nokia N70 does not synchronize my outlook once off...

    My Nokia N70 does not synchronize my outlook once off appointments but only reoccurring ones with Windows 7 as operating system & MS Office 2007 using PC Suite version 7.1.40.1 Why it was working before with older PC Suites?

    I had a similar problem.  there are many solutions, not anyone works for everyone. 
    Here is what I did:
    In the windows file manager, under properties, for each of the files, in the iTunes programs directory.
    AppleMobileDeviceHelper
    ituneshelper
    Synchserver
    to xp compatibility mode.
    Do NOT change compatibiliy mode on itunes.exe.
    It only applies to Window Vista and newer.
    It appears that apple does not play nice with Windows.  The relationship with Microsoft is tenuous, and fixes come late and lst.
    Good luck.
