Nokia N8 Firmware Bug(Sensor Setting)

Whenever I filp over my N8 on an incoming call it goes into silent mode even though the sensor setting is set to off.
I forced my friend to buy a N8 and this problem was also found in his N8 Grey.
Are nokia developers aware of this?

It happened to me again, but I managed to make it work again. It seems when you restart the phone this option stops working properly. So what I did to make it work again is:
1. I ticked the silence calls box, then
2. I restarted the phone,
3. With the ticked box tried calling to see if it worked – it did what it was supposed to do (it silences the calls when I turn the phone over), and
4. Then I un-ticked the box and it started to work properly i.e. it does not silence the calls.
From trial and error, I noticed that step 3 is important!
Good luck.

  • Nokia E71 Firmware Bugs - 210.21.006, 02-03-2009

    I've had the phone since it first launch shortly after middle of 2008.  Awesome phone!  No problems from day 1.  
    Unfortunately, right after i updated the firmware in March 2009 there just seems to be a list of bugs showing up.  Here's my list.  Hopefully someone can help or a new firmware will be released as soon as possible, as some of these problems are rather frustrating and down right disturbing.  And obviously you can't go back to the previous firmware.  Just to be certain, I reinstalled the firmware twice just to make sure it wasn't a 'bodgy first time install' issue. 
    1. Home Screen Notifications - Not there
    Problem: Apart from Calender Events, every day, the following will 'EVENTUALLY' not show itself:- new message, miss-calls, email 1, email 2, voicemail, miss-call.  They will not show irregardless of the actual events happening.
    How do I solve this?: I have to go back into 'enabled applications' and un-tick the above home screen events/notifications and then, re-tick and then click ok.  Only then, will these notifications re-appear.  Not really a SOLUTION as it will happen again within the next 24 hours or less.  This is SOOO annoying as I rely on the Home screen notifications for an update of what is happening.  How does one realize if there was a miss-call or message received if there's no visual notification and the sound is turned off?
    2. Auto-retrieval of Email 1 and Email 2 - Disables itself
    Problem: I have emails setup so that they check my email 1, every half hour and email 2, every 1 hour.  I have no actual issues retrieving the emails automatically.  Accesses and downloads nicely using my network.  However, EVENTUALLY 2 to 3 days later, the 'AUTOMATIC RETRIEVAL' disables itself.  Why does it do this?  Never used to.
    How do I solve this?:  I have to go back into the respective email accounts and their settings, and re-enable it.  Again, not really a solution as it will disable itself within a few days.
    3. Shortcut Keys on the Home Screen (left and right) - Does not respond.
    Problem: Every so often, the left and right shortcut keys won't work.  They are there, but if you click on them nothing happens.  Example. On my phone I have 'new SMS' (left) and 'search' (right). They will work for 1 or 2 days, maximum.  EVENTUALLY, when I click on either of them, nothing will happen.  I can see a very quick 'flash' on the screen as if something is about to happen, but..... NOTHING.  This happens also when I change the shortcut keys to open up different applications.
    How do i solve this?:  I have to restart the phone. No other choice. There's no way of going back into the settings and changing the shortcuts to something else and expect the left and right shortcut buttons to function properly.  You have to restart the phone!  Never used to that either.
    Having said all that, the previous FIRMWARE DIDN'T DO ALL THIS.  Is anyone else out there experiencing these same problems?  This NEW firmware UPDATE, has turned what used to be an AWESOME phone, into something that is a bit of nuisance.  
    Nokia please save the E71!

    Well, I do hope they provide a new firmware soon which will correct many of the current bugs, since I'm sure Nokia are aware that this won't push many to buy THEIR next devices, it will be Blackberry's or HTC, etc.
    My E71 came with fw 100.x... and I wish I'd never upgraded to 200.x...
    I'd like to think you'd get more out of your device with a fw updgarde but unfortunately you end up with a worse performing phone!

  • BUG : Cannot set Nokia Messaging as default client...

    Hi,
    Nokia Email  v.9.5.3.75 on Nokia E71 (firmware v300.21.012). 
    Mail for Exchange v2.09.158.
    I can select 'E-mail'  as default mailbox in 'messages > settings'. However when in Gallery and trying to send a picture from the list it opens Mail for Exchange client ! And when opening the picture .. and then trying to send .. it lets me choose the mailbox (that should happen in the list-view also !) .. but .. when i try to send via 'E-mail' (the default) nothing happens !
    Please fix a.s.a.p. since these are pretty basic functions if you ask me that should have been tested !

    I actually got this to work.  When I did the check for new firmware, the system told me I was up to date.  I reflashed the firmware anyway.  From a blank device, everything is integrated perfectly.
    Whe I go the new phone, I used the  backup and restore function of Nokia PC suit to restore settings to my phone.  When I did that (with up to date firmware) I had the problems mentioned above.  I suspect then that this is an issue with the restore function, although I have not bothered to isolate the issue as I now have a working phone.
    So what worked for me is:
    1) Run firmware update.  
    2) Firmware update tells me my phone is up to date and asks if I want to replace the firmware anyway.  I chose yes
    3) Reflash and lose all programs, data, themes, etc.
    4) Completely set up the phone from scratch
    5) Everything works beautifully, except for the 4 hours of my life I will never get back

  • Nokia 5320 XM firmware bugs concerning date and al...

    Hello!
    Although already having twice sent in my Nokia 5320 XpressMusic for repair, I'm still suffering from severe firmware bugs concerning date and alarm of the device. Here some information on when and how the bugs are showing themselves:
    Settings: A different weekly alarm is programmed for each day of the week. The phone is being switched off for the night.
    The programmed alarm is being run correctly by the phone. The phone is being switched on after having disabled the alarm.
    Some time later the date changes to four or five days in the future. Moreover the phone starts to ring for the day the date has changed to. Often it's not ringing at the time that has been programmed for that day, even though pretending to do so.
    Example:
    9:45 on Sunday: phone is correctly ringing at the programmed time. 
    10:15 on Sunday: phone is incorrectly ringing again pretending it was Friday 7:50
    the clock remains unchanged, however the date has changed automatically for five days
    Linked to this error, there seem to exist similar problems with date and snooze-function already mentioned on these forums:
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=145323
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=144139
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=143893
    As I mentioned above, I already sent my phone in twice, however I always got it back with the mention: repaired on guarantee. To me, this seems rather disgraceful for Nokia. I sincerely hope, that, if necessary with the pressure of other users being concerned as well, we arrive to get a phone that is really working as one could await it from the leader in mobile phone production!
    I hope we will be informed soon about when there will be a firmware update!
    Thanks for your replies!
    Regards,
    Lorenz

    Have the same problem, as I already mentioned in my posts too. But unfortunatly no reply from Nokia either. Seems they really don't care about it. It would be at least apropriate, that they at least announce time of new firmware and note if they will fix this problem with it.
    But no replay from them   I contacted local nokia dealer in Slovenia, but they just say they can not help. And that we must wait for new firmware.
    Now I wonder, when it should came out ?! I am sick of this trouble with my phone. and as you said, I am also turning off my phone since I want my battery to last longer. so this bug must be fixed.
    Nokia team, anyone?!?!?  

  • E55 Thread for Firmware Bugs

    I noticed that there isn't yet a thread in order to report E55 firmware bugs, so I started this
    Here the firmware bugs I've found:
    - Hidden WLAN: when you search for wireless access points (for example from the main screen) the phone see always one "hidden wlan", that is not there!
    - Default phone numbers: when you have more phone numbers for a contact, you can choose one of these as default for messaging or dialing, but even if you do that, E55 keep asking you what number to use every time you make a sms
    - Organizer major bug: sometimes (80% of times!) when you edit a memo in Organizer, or when you move it (by changing the start date), you will see that also the end date has changed (adding 1 or more days), even if you didn't touch it! And even if the start and the end date originally matched! So if you had a memo covering one day, now it covers more days, and the end date can't be changed again (you set the correct date, save, and none happens). This make the memos totally unusable!
    - Organizer minor bug: when you open Organizer, and then open a memo, you have to select the information that you want to modify (text, date, synch) and click one more time to edit the memo. But: if you select the "date" or the "synch" row, instead of the "text" row, and then click "modify", the memo is open alway with the cursor on the "text" row. So, the capability of selecting others rows, is pretty useless.
    I hope some Nokia guy will notice this thread so there informations can be useful for a future firmware release, also because I'm getting crazy with the memos issue!!

    hi olandesevolante
    about ur first and second issues u face they r not realy bugs, why?
    for the first one:  i faced that with my E51 in a place i visited before, that hidden WLAN maybe a conflict from another type of waves other than that of wlan using same frequency
    and about the second issue:  default phone numbers is a feature that only set for making calls but when u make an sms the phone will ask u to choose between numbers present unders the same contact name even if u set a default number, so it is not a bug but that is the normal firmware properties
    for the rest of issues , they sound like real bugs
    i hope i helped a little and i wish those bugs will be removed in the next firmware

  • Nokia 5610 firmware update....................

    im having a little problem with my nokia 5610 firmware update.
    The problem is that after updating my phone with version 8.30 the slide animation feature of my phone is not working. On slide open\close the picture set in the theme is supposed to appear but nothing appears.
    Before the update this feature was working perfectly fine. i reported about this issue to nokia customer care also but they just advised me to wait for the next firmware i.e. v9.40 . As the new firmware released on my product code i again updated my phone's firmware and this time with version 9.40. Still it did not help me. The same problem persists . Please note here that nothing went wrong during the update . All other features of my phone are working perfectly fine .
    Can anyone please help me on this issue??????

    Hi there,
    The version 10.00 for the Nokia 5610 has been around since early July, so certainly it would be available for all countries in the APAC region.
    Just make sure the phone is fully charged and backed up and you're set to update.
    Cheers and Good Luck

  • Firmware bugs

    Hello!
    I found three firmware bugs and already informed the hotline about one of them in january. It is not fixed in firmware 1.1, so I am posting here.
    The first, already reported, bug can be seen with German language setting when configuring the alarm clock. The dialog where you can enter the desired alarm time shows am/pm time although the other time options change to 24h display when setting the iPod to German.
    The second bug is inside the game Solitair. Very often you can't move a card to the "finished" stack, although it matches perfectly. For example you can move a red four on top of a black five, but not on top of the (matching) red three at the top.
    The third bug is inside the game Brick. I noticed sometimes the ball does not get faster over time which makes it very easy to go through all levels. In fact after some time the first level re-appears.
    The following facts are annoying, but I don't know if I can call them bugs.
    a) My computer very often loses the connection to the iPod while transferring (large) files. I am using opensource software (Linux, gtkpod), so it might be something to preven t users from using non-supported hardware.
    The first message indicating the problem is
    "Nov 26 13:38:13 carsten-otto usb 1-3: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 71" just after the transfer stopped. This message repeats some times and then everything gets messy.
    b) Videos stop playing with sound after some time. I did not try with official videos yet, but my self built videos do meet the requirements and should play. After about ten seconds the video stops for about 5 seconds and then starts again, but from now on without sound. Whenever I seek to a new position I can have sound again, but only for another ten seconds.
    Please tell me how to solve the problems and/or how to contact Apple so that they can help me.
    Thank you,
    Carsten Otto

    The Video issue I am having, and I believe all people are having with 5th Generation Video IPODS. I've installed probably 8 or 9 programs over the last two days, hoping to find one that doesn't screw up the video/sound after a few minutes.
    It's interesting because none of the Video Podcasts seem to have a problem running on it, but some information regarding how this is working for Video Podcasts but nothing else is missing. I would hope a firmware upgrade is in the works to fix this problem, because if not I anticipate a large recall, and I think this would be bad publicity for Apple, at a time when many competitors are biting at the bit to take a share out of the market.

  • 6220c firmware bug?

    Updated firmware to 5.15 in my 6220 classic yesterday. After some memory card trouble, it now seems to work, with one exception that I have noted. If I do *#0000# and then options/check for updates and select my usual ISP, I get a message saying "system error". Other ways of accessing Internet work fine with this ISP. Could this be a firmware bug?

    i have same problem with my 6220c firmware 5.15,and i have reflashed the firmware twice still same problem,i am unable to watch mobile tv on my tv screen via tv out cable,the voice works fine on tv but there is no picture except a key with a slash in blue background on my tv,and its almost a year now since nokia released a new firmware for 6220c generic and other phones like 5800,5530,n79,n97,n96 etc has goten 2 or 3 firmwares each 2009/2010

  • Firmware bug: $CCERT must not be used in Report_Rule

    Prolog
    "Report Rule" can be configured with URL's used to save phone's current configuration. Starting with 7.5.2b firmware it is possible to configure more than one URL here. The semi-colon has been used as separator. It caused issues because semi-colon can be used in casual URL, so the separator has been changed to space in 7.5.5 (see Bug in Report_Rule parsing (SPA50x, fw 7.5.x) for more)
    As of 7.5.7 firmware, the 2048 certificates has been introduced and value of $CCERT variable may contain text "Installed (2048 bits)". It cause other issue related to Report Rule parsing.
    Issue & how to repeat
    $CCERT can be used on "Report Rule" no longer because of wrong parsing order.
    The author of firmware first call variable expansion for complete "Report Rule" string, then split the result by space in attempt to found second URL.
    With Report Rule configured to https://test.local/Report.php?Product=$PN&CERT=$CCERT it is parsed to:
    first_rule is https://test.local/Cisco/Report.php?Product=SPA508G&CERT=Installed, second_rule is (2048 bits)
    It is wrong result. In advance, it reveal the characters inserted into URL by variable expansion are not escaped properly.
    How to fix
    The order of parsing steps needs to be reversed. Report Rule need to be split  into parts first, then variable expansion should be called for both parts independently. Also, strings expanded from variables should be url-encoded properly.
    Disclaimer
    I will not call SMB support to report this bug to them. Assuming the Cisco is interested to repair firmware bugs a staff member monitoring this forum will create ticked by self. I wish that all relevant information including the depth-in analysis has been disclosed here. I'm ready to provide further details or create test environment if necessary. I'm just not willing to call the Support center as I'm not willing to explain all those complex things described here by phone (and they doesn't accept written reports).
    For those non-Cisco-staff users affected by issue - feel free to report the issue to Support center, if you are willing to do it. You are allowed to use information disclosed here, or just refer to this report. I don't care the authorship.

    CA Forum: .NET
    You are not alone on this one, I am having the very same issue as you are and . Everything functioned just fine the last time the application was deployed was deployed and there was nothing changed to any of the reports or code which handles the reports; however, this time I am having the same issue.  I added the parameters to the report to check to see if they were actually being recognized by the report and they do show up, but it refuses to filter the records and brings back every record.  The report works properly if I run it just directly in Crystal though.  I sure hope someone can enlighten us Paul.
    Update: Well, I finally figured out what was causing my issue.  The issue had to deal with the actual older version of the CrystalReportViewer control and the newer version supplied by the update.  I had suspected it was something minor that I had overlooked when doing the update.  Hope this gets you going as well.  Cheers

  • Nokia 6555b Firmware Update

    Is there an update for the Nokia 6555b firmware?
    Thanks,
    Pat

    Very odd, not known a phone to be missing it's product code from the label under the battery before.
    Have you tried connecting your phone to the computer and running the Nokia Software Updater?
    This will tell you if there's an available update.
    Be aware if your phone is network branded then it's highly unlikely that an update will be available. Most networks don't like approving new updates.
