Nokia N73 front panel

Hi,I want to replace my front panel of the phone,because it
's got a little scratch,which can be very hardly seen.
However,how much would a front panel cost in EUR or $.

I think it'll be not less than 13$ and not more than 25$ ..
I think it's depending where you are .. the price in europe is not the same in Africa and so on ..

Nokia N72 Front Panel Shield Glass Broken

My Nokia N72 Front Panel Shield Glass Broken.
Could you please advice how it can be repaired & how much it should cost me for an original shield at Nokia Care center in Pune, India.

Only that Nokia Service centres/Priority Dealers in India are all third party private dealers and charge a bomb for a simple service or spare part.
I had a screen for a Nokia 2865 replaced some time back in a local mobile phone service centre and the price of doing the same in an authorised centre was 5 or 6 times higher than that.
Nokia wants to fleece customers by not giving them basic information about how customers can service their mobiles themselves. By the way, please mail me in case anybody has a service manual for a 2865 mobile.

Nokia N73 & PC Suite 6.82.22.0

I recently purchased a Nokia N73 from 3 Australia, and installed PC Suite from the CD, and upgraded to PC Suite 6.82.22.0 During one of the installs my computer had a problem and seemed to hang the installation (it stalled for some five minutes before I stopped the install). I re-installed PC Suite and everything seemed fine, except that when I connected my N73 by cable, the 'new hardware' wizard appears to load in the 'Nokia USB modem'. It tries, and fails, to load this twice, and then the PC Suite software and the System Tray icon (little phone) both show the phone as not connected. However all PC Suite applications are available and working correctly. I have tried uninstalling PC Suite, rebooting, and re-installing PC suite with no better success, then reading other posts I used PC Suite Cleaner, and then reinstalled PC Suite. The very first connection was great, system tray icon changed to little green orb, and PC Suite then said connected. Sometime after that i must have rebooted the system (or at least disconnected the cable) and now PC Suite will not indicate the phone is connected although all PC Suite options (sync, backup, contacts etc) are available. What can I do to resolve this issue? I have WinXP Home with Service pack 2, PC Suite 6.82.22.0, and Nokia CA-53 cable. I normally used it through a USB hub, but even connecting it direct to the computer USB port makes no difference (the drivers are 'installed' and hardware is ready to use) Abes

Check this:
Open Control Panel > system > hardware > Device manager >
when phone is connected -> can you find this:
"Wireless Communication Devices
1 Nokia N73 USB Generic
2 Nokia N73 USB OBEX
3 Nokia N73 USB OBEX
4 Nokia N73 USB OBEX
5 Nokia N73 USB Phone Parent
Or is there "Unknown Device" only??
And check also Modems and Ports -> can find your phone from there (and is there yellow marks)??
If everything is OK in device manager, see my message from here (and try it):

Problems with Camera on Nokia n73 music edition

I have a nokia n73 music edition and this is the issue
When I slide down bac cover to open camera sometimes the I don't get image from back camera at all but only from front.
Another this is that today I opened the camera and with the shouter I couldn't take pictures.
I pressed it but nothing occured.
I tried to update the software but no luck because it says that phone has newer software.
I also when I go to the Camera through the main menu then it shows the video of front camera

Format your memory card and try again. Remember to backup all your stuff in the memory card before formatting.
If you still have problems, then try these options one by one:
1. Turn off your phone and leave your battery out for 5-10min. Then, put them back in and turn on the phone.
2. Restore factory settings: type *#7780# at the standby screen. Enter 12345 for the security code or the one you've changed it to.
Before you try the next two steps, backup your phone memory using PC Suite.
3. Soft reset: type *#7370#. Enter the security code when prompted
4. Hard reset (Last resort, nothing else works): Turn off your phone, press and hold down these keys: 3, * and the call (Green) button. Turn on your phone without releasing them. Leave the keys only after you see the Nokia logo on the screen.
If none of these work, then take it to the nearest Nokia Care Point.
PS: There's no use posting more than once, under irrelevant threads. It'll only delay help

Big Problem Nokia E90 Fornt Panel & Screen Not Wor...

Hi Everyone,
I upgraded the firmware of my E90 last week. The next day it fel down & when picked up, the front panel including screen & key pad were off. I took out the battery & restarted it, the power came on the front screen lit up, the keypanel came on, the NOKIA logo comes on, but then the inner screen also gets simultaneously on, I hear the startup tone & then the front panel & screen powers off completely.
On Flipping open the phone the Inner Screen also does not come on automatically. Only when I press any key does it come on. The inner screen & louspeaker works normally.
I showed it in Nokia Care here & they are unable to figure out the problem. Please help me if someone has experienced a similar problem or any solutions to this.
Thanks a lot guys for all your help.

Hello nitinbhatnagar, I don't think too many people have experienced your situation if any, but you can always try restoring your phone to factory settings or reset with *#7780# soft reset or *#7370# hard reset or reinstall firmware to rectify any software fault, but if it indeed sustained physical damage to internal circuits then you can't avoid a trip to the Nokia care point.

6650d Flip front panel switch problem

Can anyone tell me how I disable the front panel switches on my Nokia 6650d flip. Whenever I put this in my pocket the switches are activated whenever I walk: resulting in an annoying beep. It also flattens the battery. It completely negates the point of a flip phone. The phone is OK I just need to know how to disable these annoying buttons. Can anyone help?

To lock the keypad in the standby mode, press the left selection key and * within
1.5 seconds. To set the device to automatically lock the keypad after a certain
time, select > Settings > Phone sett. > General > Security > Phone and SIM
card > Keypad autolock period > User defined and the desired time.
To unlock the keypad, select Unlock, and press * within 1.5 seconds.
When the device or keypad is locked, calls may be possible to the official emergency number
programmed into your device.
To lock the cover keypad, slide your finger on the the left cover touch key and then
the right cover touch key within 1.5 seconds. If you have locked the keypad from
the cover display, and your device goes to sleep mode, you first need to press the
camera key to activate the cover touch keys. To unlock the cover keypad, slide
your finger on Unlock (left cover touch key), and then OK (right cover touch key)
within 1.5 seconds.

Sync Nokia N73

My Nokia N73 firmware was recently upgraded. Before the upgrade, I can pair and connect isync and N73 via bluetooth successfully. However, after the upgrade, I can now only pair the device but N73 always show not connected in bluetooth window. I typed in the passkey in N73 but the Bluetooth Setup Assistant keeps waiting forever gathering additional information about the mobile phone.
Do you know what's going wrong? I am frustrated.
Bluetooth assistant v2.1f17

thanks for all of these informations. So we are not alone.
Remember I told you that for my previous N73 I upgraded to Version 4.0812.4.0.1 (before the upgrade of the nokia firmware it had worked very fine) ? btw I did in order to get better performances and this is true, phone ran faster and was more stable.
Today I got a brand new N73 (not upgraded yet). By the way, these new models can be upgraded online from the mobile phone itself if you own 3G access.
Well unfortunately this is the same status : The brand new phone comes with V 4.0735.3.2 !!! and it does not work.
you can not browse the phone using bluetooth from the mac, you can NOT send any file. From the mobile you can not even "connect" to your mac.
The only thing I've been able to do is to PAIR the device but with a strange behaviour :
the "bluetooth Setup Assistant" is stuck to the same screen just after he had succeeded with the pairing. So no confirmation screen, nothing.
(btw same behaviour with newest firmware from nokia too!)
and moreover, I can't do "add device" to iSYNC !
he said : 1 device found
"iSync cannot connect to this device"
!! so it has something to do with any version from V 4.0735.3.2 and later release ?
Well, if we can't do any bluetooth exchanges of files, that we can not browse and sync it, we really need nokia and apple to check it together because something has been changed recently that make the n73 useless with apple computers.
I would suggest to all of us that we qualify the issue :
(to be sure we are suffering the exact same behaviour)
1 ) erase any iSync profile (remove device) of any N73 phone
2 ) erase any bluetooth N73 profile from the bluetooth assistant
3 ) unpair the N73 and apple computer
now we are back to the beginning as if we just bought a new nokia phone or new apple computer.
1 ) identify N73 firmware version / MAC OSX version / Computer Architecture
2 ) disable - enable bluetooth from the phone and also from the apple computer (trying to reset any link)
3 ) Use "set up bluetooth device" : the "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" will now appear - Then select "Mobile Phone" and "continue"
4 ) Your phone bluetooth name should appear, select it then "continue"
5 ) Next screen appear, "continue"
6 ) now you have to pair your phone. The assistant will give you a code to enter to your mobile phone. That should work but should also be slow and looks to "hang" while "Gathering additional information about your mobile phone" --> you can see animated "sun" showing that it is "in progress". In a normal condition, it should be quick and you should get a positive confirmation that the setup has been done properly.
7 ) we are still stuck to the same screen and the animated "sun" is still animated (bottom right).
8 ) The bluetooth icon on the right of the mobile screen has no bracket (it means it is not connected) so what is doing the assistant ??
9 ) Don't close the Assistant yet. You can verify that the phone has been installed to your MAC OS X "bluetooth" menu or from the "bluetooth preferences" panel. Let the Assistant opened anyway...
10 ) Since the component are paired and the phone is available from the MAC OSX bluetooth menu you can try to send a file to the phone or browse it, also check that the phone is now available into iSync etc...
--> as you can see it is not working. After many attempts and 2 tested nokia firmwares on an up to date Mac OS X computer, it is not working anymore. Oh and by the way, the assistant is still stuck to the same "pairing" screen with the same animated icon... it is now ten minutes runnning...
so I am thinking that since firmware 4.0735.3.2 the issue appeared.
Can you all do the same troubleshoot test so we can prevent NOKIA or APPLE support engineers to request us for the same data in a loop ?
By this we can force Nokia to test the firmwares (it is not only iSync specific issue as we can see) and maybe ask Apple to support us.
yeah you as you know that Apple updates are automatically delivered so we never know if something could have been modified in the bluetooth driver these last week...
to resume : I had tested 2 firmwares, bluetooth feature "send/browse file" does not work. I let you follow this to be sure I am not a single customer with such issue.

Open and close a vi front panel dynamically

I created a main vi panel that display all the signal names. I like the main vi to open a new plot screen when I double click on the signal name. I was able to do that using invoke node. But I when I close the plot screen by clicking on the Window "Close" button, the main vi was not able to open a new one again. So I disabled the Window "Close" button and only use the "Stop" button coded in while loop in the blockdigram of the plot screen. It worked, but the plot screen is still open and changed to editing mode. Is there an easy way to close the plot screen by only one click. Another question is that how does the main vi can open multiple plot screens. Thanks for your advice.

I think I know what happens:
If you close the front panel of a sub-vi, the code is still running, so the VI doesn't terminate and somehow you can't address it (it don't know how you communicate with your sub-vi).
So in your sub-vi you should monitor the panel-close event, and finish the code of the VI and finish the VI

Open and Close Front Panel of SubVI

Hi all,
Running LabVIEW 2011 on Windows 7 x64. I am trying to get a subVI front panel to open from my main FP with the press of a button and then close with a button press in the subVI. Here is the piece from my main FP that calls the VI and opens the FP
Plots is defined in another loop and all of the loops are in a flat sequence. I did it this way because I want it to start with the first press and not stop my main loop from running. I have moved the item in the left loop around a lot so I'm not sure if I can run that in the same loop as the event or not. Either way opening the VI seems to work fine.
The problem shows up when trying to close the subVI for the SECOND time. The code is here:
As I said, the first time I open and close the VI everything works as I expect it should. I am then able to open it again but now the "blank button" doesn't function and I can't close the window or even open the block diagram to probe anything. I have been trying to figure this out for awhile, any insite would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

The problem is in the delimiters in your text file. By default, Read From Spreadsheet File.vi expects a tab delimited file. You can specify a delimiter (like a space), but Read From Spreadsheet File.vi has a problem with repeated delimiters: if you specify a single space as a delimiter and Read From Spreadsheet File.vi finds two spaces back-to-back, it stops reading that line. Your file (as I got it from your earlier post) is delimited by 4 spaces.
Here are some of your choices to fix your problem.
1. Change the source file to a tab delimited file. Your VI will then run as is.
2. Change the source file to be delimited by a single space (rather than 4), then wire a string constant containing one space to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi.
3. Wire a string constant containing 4 spaces to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi. Then your text file will run as is.
Depending on where your text file comes from (see more comments below), I'd vote for choice 1: a tab delimited text file. It's the most common text output of spreadsheet programs.
Comments for choices 1 and 2: Where does the text file come from? Is it automatically generated or manually generated? Will it be generated multiple times or just once? If it's manually generated or generated just once, you can use any text editor to change 4 spaces to a tab or to a single space. Note: if you want to change it to a tab delimited file, you can't enter a tab directly into a box in the search & replace dialog of many programs like notepad, but you can do a cut and paste. Before you start your search and replace (just in the text window of the editor), press tab. A tab character will be entered. Press Shift-LeftArrow (not Backspace) to highlight the tab character. Press Ctrl-X to cut the tab character. Start your search and replace (Ctrl-H in notepad in Windows 2000). Click into the Find What box. Enter four spaces. Click into the Replace With box. Press Ctrl-V to paste the tab character. And another thing: older versions of notepad don't have search and replace. Use any editor or word processor that does.

Connect a Nokia N73 to a PC in the year 2013?

Hi!
I have a Nokia N73 on my desk which keeps rebooting at random intervals. This used to be my phone but I gave it away to my brother. He has been using it for about a year without any problems. He did drop it once on the pavemen and the plastic screen protector got a crack. But the screen itself was not broken and it still worked. This was a long time ago. So I don't think it's anyhow related. But I'm letting you know anyway. It was only lately that it started rebooting itself, as if it has a mind of its own.
Now, given that I am the previous owner of this phone I know its history. I know that the "power on power off" issue has been plaguing N73 users as early as 2007/2008, when this was only a 1 year old model. So this is not a new issue. But I have never experienced this issue with mine. I guess it was just a matter of time, a ticking bomb if you will, before the error manifests. Now I know what that looks like.
So I'm thinking this is most probably a software/firmware issue. So I want to try to reset this thing and watch what happens, which brings me to the main problem here. Since this is an old model it's hard to do anything with this thing due to Nokias continued lack of support for old models.
I installed Nokia Suite 3.8.48 on Windows 8.1. I then connected the phone with a USB cable. I chose "PC Suite" option on the phone. Then I got this stupid error.
USB device not recognized
So I thought that it was missing some drivers and that the Nokia Suite did not install it for me, for whatever the reason. So I googled it and found the Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver (7.1.182.0). I disconnected the phone, installed the driver, connected the phone again, and still the same error came up. I tried repairing the driver installation and it did not help.
So what do I do now? Can I expect any help from Nokia with this issue? I am not asking for much. All I ask for is some bits of software so I can help myself. The least Nokia can do in my opinion is to host their previous software releases on their website. Yes, I mean the old PC Suite, Ovi Suite, Nokia Suite, etc. I don't ask them to continue supporting it and updating it if it's discontinued or deprecated software. And of course, since it's closed source it's impossible for other folks to continue the development. But the least they can do is host previous releases. I much rather download an EXE from Nokia than from some funny place like Banana Island or whatever...
And what about those software updates? When you google "nokia software update" the first thing you find is the main page for the various flavors of Nokia software suites where you click on the type of device you have (Symbian, Windows, et. al.) and it takes you to the download link for the EXE for Nokia Suite (in case of Symbian). But there are never any download links for the actual phone firmware/software/OS upgrades. The software suite grabs the appropriate file or files and installs it automatically. But what if you need to do this sh** manually? Or what if you want to keep a deposit of previously released phone software/firmware? Obviously Nokia won't host old phone software indefinitely.
And it's not like they do their best to make the new "PC SUITE, aka. OVI SUITE, aka NOKIA SUITE, aka "SOMETHING" SUITE, fully compatible with old phone models. So users with old Nokia products would have to use some of the old software tools, tools that Nokai no longer supports, nor hosts or links to.
What if you want to downgrade from a current version to a previous version? I'm not sure the automatic software update even still works on these old handsets (e.g. Nokia N73, et. al.) and what do you do in that case? What if you just need to reflash the phone with the same firmware that's already onboard? The answer is: you won't be able to! The software suite will only check for new versions, and if no new versions are found (obviously, since it's an old product for which there is no more development) it won't present any firmware/software at all to be flashed to the phone. Great!... just f****** brilliant! Or not...
The main reason why I need the Nokia Suite is obviously because I don't want to loose any data. I would have used it to create a full backup of the phone. So much for plan A, and I don't have a plan B. This totally sucks...
So what's with the "Nokia Suite" anyway? What happened to the "Ovi Suite"? Last time I held a Nokia phone in my hands it was called Ovi Suite and it had replaced the "PC Suite". I'm guessing you guys are having trouble deciding on how to name your software?... The Nokia Suite looks a lot like the Ovi Suite to me...
Can this thing do a full blown backup of the phone? The Nokia Suite? If not, I wont' waste my time with it. It doesn't allow me to click anywhere. I can't click on the View, Sync or Tools menus. So I can't explore its functionality. Not until I manage to connect a phone to it. This sucks... it reminds me of why I moved away from Nokia in the first place.

Nokia Suite 3.8.48 is not compatible with Windows 8.1
I installed Nokia Suite 3.8.48 on my old Windows Vista PC and it worked! So I conclude that the damn thing is not compatible with the latest re-incarnation of the Windows 8 system, namely 8.1. For whatever the reason it just didn't like my Windows 8.1 computer very much. It's clearly a compatibility issue on some level. It's a brand new computer by the way, it's a desktop PC, custom built, with a clean genuine install of WIndows 8.1. I installed it myself from the retail box (full version). No issues with it whatsoever, no software issues, BSOD issues... nothing... up until now. Installing the Nokia Suite software from the same installer file worked very well on my old Windows Vista computer. No need to install any additional drivers! It just worked! All device drivers installed properly when I connected the phone. And Microsoft wants to discontinue Vista in favor of Windows 8.1... I hate those muppets.
I know I've read that Nokia Suite 3.8.48 is Windows 8 compatible, I think I read it in the FAQ, but there were no specifics about whether that means 8.0 only or 8.0 AND 8.1. So it's a guesswork! And my guess is that it's compatible with Windows 8.0 but not with Windows 8.1. Even though I know that the changes between them are slim, if any. But don't blame me for that, blame Microsoft! I'm sure Microsoft wishes that Windows 8.0 never had happened! Just like they are wishing that Windows Vista never had happened! It shows, by their decision to drop Windows Vista support on most recent Microsoft software products. Windows 7 will follow the same fate. I'm sure they just wish they could pull the switch on every previous OS version, starting from XP, through Vista, 7 and Windows 8, and make everyone upgrade to the retarded Windows 8.1.
The worst thing is... Nokia has partnered with Microsoft... what good can possibly come out of that?... There's a rumor that Nokia is working on an Android phone, known as Normandy project, or AoL (Asha on Linux). Yeah right! That will probably happen in... oh well... maybe in 100 years or so. You're way too late to the Android party. Nokia shot itself in the head when they decided to push forward with the Symbian OS and later the MeeGo. Then they started flirting with Microsoft.
I would hate to work at a company that has no clear vision of the future and no strong leadership. I pity you Nokia. What happened to you?... you used to be cool. I guess it's what happens to every company that refuses to adapt to changes and doesn't do it quick enough. You either swim or you sink. Nokia decided to sink. Not only did they sink, they sunk to Microsofts level of incompetence... I guess in a way... you guys deserve each other.

Hi,
Thank you all.. I could insert the sqrt symbol in the GUI.
I also want to initialise one of the strings with the same symbol. So I copied the sqrt symbol and inserted that in place of "sqrt(3)" . but it switched back to a special character. I selected that special character and selected symbol font from the font menu, then it switched back to sqrt symbol. but as soon as i clicked the mouse outside, it reverted to the old special character(may be the one corresponding to 0xD3 in Application Font).
How to fix this?

Front Panel Mass Binding Project Variables Issue

Hello -
When attempting to bind controls to shared variables through the front panel mass binding option, there is an issue where you can not seem to bind a "project item" to the control. The method of binding I am using is to export a text list of control names, urls, mode, and function to a text editor utilizing the front panel binding mass configuration options. The text editor shows, in the fourth column, a "0" for no function, a "1" for network item, and a "2" for project item. when attempting to import the list back into the front panel binding mass configuration, all "2" indications become "1", as all items are treated as network. Thus one can not effectively bind to a project shared variable item.
The binding works fine manually by means of utilizing the properties selection of the control, but it is difficult to do this for 821 controls, as in my application.
My application is based on a OPC served group of 821 variables which are linked to controls and indicators through the shared variable representation for each item created in the multiple variable editor.
Does anyone have a work around for this issue, as it is a showstopper right now, ie, you can not effectively bind a large quantity of controls or indicators to project located shared variables as required.
The rationale behind utilizing project located variables instead of network located variables is to reduce the amount of calls to the OPC server which was causnig a large latency in the refresh of the 821 items. With the items defined as shared variables within the project, a single call is issued, which has tremendously sped up the refresh cycle for the list of variables.
Thank you in advance for your insight in this matter,
John DeCroos

Hello Brian A.,
In response to you comment --
"in 2006, and John did not follow up with any more information for Efosa"
-- a great deal of information was provided to NI (Efosa and many, many others, up to the product manager for the DCS module). I have never heard back on a fix for this bug for the identified version of LabVIEW. The reply by Efosa here was well after we had shipped our product -- (please see date + Efosa's apology) -- we had found our own solution as is identified in the original post.
My solution was, as is also indicated in my original post, to manually bind each variable. This was unbelievably time consuming, but was all I had.
The version of software I am now working on uses far less variables, manually bound to avoid the multiple binding issue we had in the past.
I have checked the mass binding function in LV 8.5.1, it works fine now. I guess it would have been nice to have had a reply that the bug had been resolved ---- would have helped me out a bit.
Thank you,
John DeCroos

Reading main VI front panel in SubVI

Hi,
I'm trying to create a subVI that writes a header text file containing info on essential parameters in my measurements. My mainVI front panel has a few dozen controls, some of them contained in a handful of clusters.
What I'd want is just to be able to access and read the values at the subVI to construct the string I want to write to the file.
I wouldn't like to proceed the dumb way, i.e., building an array of clusters or individual controls or references to them and passing that to my subVI (and, obviously not passing each individual control/cluster as a subVI input).
I figured I'd like to have some kind of refnum of the mainVI frontpanel passed to my subVI and dig use a big pile of property nodes to dig out the info that i need, inside the SubVI. Is this a feasible solution and if so, what's the way to conduct it? If not, what would be a better way?
As before, I'm using LV7 so in case you answer with block diagram examples, I'd appreciate screenshots of them.
Thanks,
Lauri

Actually that is the preferred way to do. Why you may ask? It is because you decouple the functionality (creating your log file header) from your specific user interface. By doing so you can reuse this VI in other places or applications. By using the references directly this ties the subVI to the calling VI. Unless the subVI is specifically doing something to the UI itself a subVI should avoid accessing data it needs via direct references. It should require the data to be wired in with the appropriate clusters, arrays or whatever your data needs are.

How to open remote front panel of vi's within an executable from an executable.

How do I remotely open front panels of subvi's contained within an executable, where both computers just have LabVIEW Real Time loaded (programs are run as executables)? I want to use the Method: Remote Panel Open Connection to Server to make this work. I have been getting error 1032 "VI Server Access Denied". I do not want to use the web page method (connection is too slow when controlling front panel objects and I can not programmatically exit out (release control of vi) of the web page).
Ex.
PC1: Has executable1 using Remote Panel Open Connection to Server Method etc. code inside. This program will make a call to executable2 (on PC2) to open up different vi front panels (within executable2), so the controls can be changed from PC1. I want to be able to make changes to the vi's running on PC2 from PC1.
PC2: Has executable2 containing several subvi's.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but here is how to launch executables that can interact
