Nokia N8 Protected Access Point Removal

I recently purchased a second hand n8. The phone itself works perfectly but it is from vodafone and i'm on an orange contract. The phone still has all the vodafone access point etc stored in it and I cannot seem to delete them as i am told they are protected. I have added my orange access points and can use them without a problem but the phone seems to still attempt to connect to the vodafone AP's first even though i have made the orange ones a higher priority
Is there any way to get rid of these? Really sick of the "Connection Failed" pop up every time I do something that needs a connection.
Thanks,
Stuart

Hi,
If Orange access point is fixed as top Access Point, move Vodafone by going to setting > connectivity >settings> destinations > internet > press and hold the vodafone access point > select move to other destination and choose any destination that apears e.g. (intranet).
You should also check if Orange Access Point is configured in some applications like positioning settings in Maps. Change this by going to settings > application settings > positioning > positioning server > server settings > define server as supl.nokia.com by going to options > new server. If you press supl.nokia.com it will show you the first priority access point.

Nokia E6 - Where is the Access point setting for Y...

I have my Nokia E6 configured for my Corporate Email, MfE and it works fine. In the settings for MfE, I see a setting for Access Point, where I choose Internet with Priority 1 as my Home WLAN and Priority 2 as my GPRS connection.
Then, I started to configure my private Yahoo mail, evertyhing is done, it works fine, but I do not see any settings for Access Point for the Yahoo mail..
Does this mean it picks up the settings from MfE???
Can any other NOkia E6 users or experts comment on this??

Hi Stuart,
To answer your question:
There is no shared secret for the ACS itself.
If the ACS is going to communicate with another device, you have to define a AAA client and define a shared secret.
ACS 4, used that shared secret to protect/secure the replication, in ACS 5, the replication secured with encryption and not shared secrets(hash).

Nokia Messaging - Selecting an access point (N95)

Apologies if this has been covered before - I searched but couldn't turn up anything.
Maybe i'm missing something really obvious, but how/where on a N96 do I select which connection / access point the Nokia Messaging app uses to sync?
Thanks in advance.

Heh. I knew it was something (reasonably) obvious. For anyone else looking, it's found at:

Access point Nokia messaging.

I have a N97 mini.
How to delete access points in Nokia messaging? I have the latest version. I have Internet as access point. I have set Internet to ask before connecting as I want to use wi/fi when possible. Despite that Messaging connects with 3G without asking. In messaging there are access points I would like to erase. Is that possible? Can I setup messaging to ask before connecting?

create a new destination in connectivity settings, copy your wifi access point to it. and set messaging to use that.
There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

Nokia Email Access Point Configuration Disappeared

I`ve just upgraded to the new Nokia Email client on my N95-1 (model RM-159). It says it's version 9.04 (21).
Since upgrading, I haven't been able to configure the Access Point to be used by the email app, which used to be under General|Service Info. This is quite important to me, since I only want to let the app work when using WiFi.
Does anyone know what happened, or how can I fix it ?

This works for the E71: for the time being a workaround for the access point problem:
I set my SmartConnect connection (you can only download this from the Download icon on your phone) group as the default APN, I have the client using Wifi if available and the cellular network if not. This MUST be configured at initial setup, ie when you install Nokia Messaging, change it from "default" to the SmartConnect access point group.

N86 8MP, Nokia Email 2.1.0, Access point troubles

I know that his has been an never ending saga. I just don't seem to be able to give it up.
There is a well known issue about Nokia Email 2.1.0 not being able to define group access points.
When I try to do that I am offered only particular access points or "None". This is ever so annoying as I have to manually change the access point every time I leave my home WiFi.
I am aware that there are ways around this using connection manager apps (I tried several: Auto WeFi, Easy WiFi.... ) but I was not happy with the results. One of them even disabled me from editing my access points.
It is weird that it is possible to define "Internet" as a access point for Exchange but not for normal e-mail providers.
Some people suggested to setup acces point to "Default" while setting up a new email account. However, I've never seen this option.
I think Nokia's terminology is so vague. What would be "Default" connection as opposed to "Internet"?
In addition, in "Network Destionations" it is possible to define the "Internet" group as "Default" so this will be the same thing, or...??? Am I missing something?
I stumbled upon this article that Nokia would release a patch addressing this access point issue.
I spent hours searching for the patch to no avail. Does anybody know whether that patch exists at all?

Having exhausted all possibilities I was thinking I could install Nokia Messaging 9.7. Apparently this version is compatible with S60v3 unlike the Nokia Messaging 10.2.
I have no idea whether Nokia Messaging 9.7 was ever ment to be for N86 8MP but if not does anybody know whether the unsigned version could be installed instead?
I would appreciate any piece of advice or suggestion.

Hello!
I can't update my e-mail client via Nokia e52 internet browser.
I enter address email.nokia.com, click download link. The application Nokia Email 9.07 has downloaded. After this the suggesting message to install Nokia Email 9.07 appears. But error appears after my agreement - "An incompatible version of this product is detected, and has to be uninstalled first"
I have no possibility to uninstall detected Email, so I don't see any Email client in Application Manager.
Nokia developers, please, fix this bug as soon as possible

Nokia email - access point

I have an N96 with S60 r3 fp2. It supports "destinations" (ie access point groups) as well as the concept of a "default" access point (group).
Only "new" apps use these capabilities. The internal imap client seems to be ok with default, but "nokia messaging" is not and will only allow a specific AP to be selected.
Since I have trouble with 3G/GSM at work I roam onto WIFI for other apps. NOkia messaging needs to do the same.
Ideas?

Lightning Protection - Outdoor Access Point 1310 ?

Hello,
what exactly do i need to protect my Outdoor Access Points an the Infrastructure behind the AP? The Access Points are mounted on the roof of a building.
Is the grounding kit enough? Do i need Lightning arrester? Is there a complete Manual or something like that?
Thanks for your help! I search the whole day without finding any concrete advices..

And how can i protect my equipment from a directly lightning strike? one of the Access Points is the highest Point on the roof. Is there an other way to protect it without a real lightning arrester? (not the Cisco product..)

Switch Access Point in Nokia n95-4

Situation: at home I use wifi (cheaper) and outside I use 3g or gprs
Is it possible that the phone automaticly detects and switch connection?!
I need this for Nokia Messaging, I don't want to change every time the access point on the application.

This is really confusing - let me try to explain better.
I have two different applications capable of handling emails, with very different look and feel:
- one is called "Messaging" and it shows emails as well as sms folders, and I have no problem selecting access points when the sync needs to happen (the icon of this application is two mail letters, similar to the icon for writing a new sms)
- the other application is what I call Nokia Email. It is the latest version (Product version 1.2, Build: 10.0.1.16), downloaded today from email.nokia.com - and it syncs with my gmail account. This one is compatible with html emails and supports gmail better than the other one. As an icon, it spots a pink "@".
I doubt they're the same application because when I uninstalled Nokia Email from the phone (via Application Manager/Installed apps.), I was then still able to use Messaging.
So, my problem is that Nokia Email doesn't allow me to choose the most appropriate access point when it connects. I would like to be able to use wifi whenever available, and connect via gprs/3g only when necessary.
I quite like the handling of html in this software, but I don't want to be charged data for downloading emails when unnecessary.
I hope this makes sense, thanks a lot for your help,
Ugo

Set up access points? Nokia 5233

I got rid of all the access points on my phone because I didn't want any extra charges.
But now I want to go onto the Ovi Store to get some apps, but I need to re-set up the connection. Can anyone tell me how to do so?

You'll have to contact ur service provider for the settings. Either they'll tell u how to manually set them up or will send them via sms which you'll have t save & apply.
Please mark the post as solution if it solves your problem.

Is it possible to remove the iphone history of wireless access points to which you've connected?

So.... I work in a place where there is a lot of security and snooping. There are folks specifically assigned to track down phones in unauthorized places. Their enthusiasm is sometimes annoying.
I leave my phone in a locker outside of the restricted area. However, I recently overheard some of the "snoops" discussing a phone that they had found. They were discussing a specific wireless access point that was in that phone's history, that caused some discussion. Although the phone was located in the locker area, they had apparently discovered it and examined it.
It was my phone.
One obvious course of action is to make sure the phone is always turned off (which I will do), but they have now identified my phone by the APs to which I connect, and I'd like to erase that history.
Is it possible?
Thank you.

Access point for Radio on Nokia E51

I tried to update the station directory using wifi but the access points that I can are just gprs or 3g or mms access point...Weird...It does not make sense for a phone that has wifi...Any ideas?

The reason you see conflicting conclusions is because we have to speculate about a lot of the details since Apple has not yet posted detailed specs, a user manual, or application tips.
Most of us are assuming the the wireless networking features of the Time Capsule will be similar if not identical to the existing Airport Extreme N base station. If that assumption is correct, your questions would be answered as follows:
1. yes, the TC could be used as an access point. It would have to be configured as a remote base station in a wireless distribution system (WDS).
2. and 3. yes, other clients on the network would be able to access the TC hard drive and printer
4. you could set things up the other way around - TC as the base station, and the older Airport Extreme as the remote base station.
5. for 802.11g connections, the older base station and its external antenna should give the older base station better range than the TC since power output for both models at the 802.11g standard should be similar.

How do you remove a manually configured wireless access point on the iphone 4S?

I have manually configured my iPhone 4s to point to a wireless access point that I no longer use. How do I delete it from the list of access points on my iPhone?

You can only "Forget this Network" while actually connected to the network, so ignore iamjeremi's post. Other than restoring your phone as a new device, you can't if you cannot connect to the network anymore.
