Nokia N86 - Strange Symbol on screen?

Hi, have only just got my n86, i have a symbol in the top right corner of my screen, it is either a sim card symbol or a memory card symbol. Is this possibly because i have a memory card inserted? or shouldnt it be there? thankyou.

Thanks

IPod Updater/Strange Symbol on screen

I just updated my click wheel iPod with the latest iPod updater software, at the point it told me to connect to an external power source for the firmware update I did so and was greeted with a symbol on the screen that looks like the connector that goes into the bottom of the iPod. I tried to reset by pressing the menu and play buttons simultaneously but that did not help, I'm still getting only that symbol. ITunes will not recognize the iPod in this state. Help!

I have tried both of those, just downloaded the latest updater and my computer is telling me the USB device is not recognized. When I plug it into a power outlet that same symbol comes up, nothing else. Ditto when I try to manually reset.
I've even tried to connect it to power sitting in the dock and without the dock, neither works...

Nokia 5610 strange icon on screen

All of a sudden a new icon appeared on my phone screen, its on the right hand side of the battery level indicator.
It looks like a "tape for a casette player", or maybe a roll of film. I dont know what it is, can someone help me and tell me what it is and how to get of it?
Thank you in advance

I had a similar problem with T-Mobile UK a while back. It turns out that it can take up to an hour for the MWI to clear after you've listened to your voicemail!

Strange symbol on E70

There is a strange symbol on my E70. It's located right under the battery indicator on the upper right hand side of the screen. It looks like a short U with an arrow inside pointing upwards.
I looked for this symbol on the manual, but it's just not there. Does anybody know what it is??

If the icon you are talking about looks like the image on the link below, it is the icon that indicates that your phone has messages in it's outbox.

It should appear for the few seconds that an SMS is being sent, but if something fails to send then that icon will stay there.
The phone should however automatically retry when you get coverage/over time. Hope that helps Message Edited by dusample on 27-Jun-2006

Strange symbol displayed like +@ - what does it me...

Nokia 5220 XpressMusic displays along the top of the screen
Signal strength, Battery Status, then Strange Symbol as below - a superscript + just before an at sign.
+@
all in a kind of outline font - not filled in.
If I have a GPRS connection, the GPRS icon goes between the battery and the strange one.
Any ideas what it means?

this sounds like its registered to the gprs network go to packet data settings and select when needed this will keep this off screen until you activate it
here is the user manual also

My nokia N-70 Music Edition Screen displayed blank...

Hi
nokia N-70 Music Edition Screen displayed blank after few hours.After Removing battery,put again & start it becomes ok for few hours.I have already updated the Software Nokia N-70 but no advantage.
Wht should i do?

strange enough some of the pre-installed apps on the N70 are on the memory card and not the phone memory. which means formatting the memory card will remove everything. it's difficult to get everything back but try these :
1- try to find what you need on the n70 support page
http://europe.nokia.com/A4144775
check phone software.
2- if you have the download app installed on your phone , run it and check for the app there.if not check the nokia download store. http://www.download.nokia.com/
3- if your mamory card is not the original provided with the phone, locate your old memory card. using a computer copy and paste the following folders from the old original one to the new one:
* resource
* sys
* private (copy the subdirectories only and not the whole folder)
4- if something is still missing after all this, i guess it's gone for good

Strange symbols appear on my desktop, producing even stranger results!

Strange symbols appear on my desktop, producing even stranger results!

These symbols are for short cuts. could be a command to move text insertion point to beginning of document or if you have been in system preferences keyboard and clicked on the modifier key and set one of the options it would be for setting cap lock. Don't know why you are showing a screen shot of it. Have you clicked on it. Have you been doing any work with documents. You could go to disk utilities and repair permissions or do an pram reset.

Why is my ipad displaying strange symbols?

I was wondering if someone could help me.
Just purchased an Ipad3 and found that the date (i.e. month) when displayed at the top of the screen is being shown in strange symbols/characters rather than specific text (saying "march" for example). When i go to settings, date & time, it again shows strange characters here rather than the different months.
it is also displaying them in Mail when i check the date of individual emails and in calander.
here is a snapshot:
http://t.co/fJQ89ejx
can anyone help and let me know if this is a bug or if i can change it?

You may have changed the Language setting.
Set the language for iPad: Go to Settings > General > International > Language, choose the language you want to use, then tap Done.

Gmail on nokia N86

Hi, I have a new Nokia N86 and I have used the email wizzard to setup gmail.
When I open gmail from the home screen or from "applications / email" it asks me to connect to internet. This is fine. But when it has connected and downloaded any updates, it no longer disconnects. It used to connect, update email and then disconnect. Now it just stays connected which is costly if you are connecting via the normal network.
There are no settings to change this. How can I set it so it disconnects after downloading email updates as it should?
kind regards
Gregor

Hi gphilp,
By design, the Nokia Messaging application always leaves the data connection open when push functionality is enabled within the client. However, when push is disabled, the client will open the data connection, perform a synchronization and then close the data connection after the sync completes. This push setting is located within When to sync within the Nokia Messaging client. Do you currently have the push functionality enabled?
Thanks,
Jeremiah

Nokia n86 issues?

I am planning to purchase a nokia n86. Does anyone have any reviews regarding this phone? good? bad??
Also, does this phone experience any dust on the screen after some time? I've heard from someone that the design of this phone prevents dust from going under the screen as there is no space between the screen itself and the glass front. Can anyone confirm this

Hi Yeppi,
I've had my N86 for almost 3 weeks now (upgraded from an N95-1) and to be honest haven't found anything major to dislike about the phone.
The camera is excellent (although its hard to see what you're photographing in bright sunlight - this also affects the phone in day to day use) and you need to press the shoot button all the way in to get the picture, anything less and it autofocusses and that's all.
As far as the battery is concerned, its a world better than the N95-1, I charged it overnight and have played music over the FM Transmitter, had it browsing the web using WiFi and had the e-mail client running all day. I must admit that I've not made or received any calls but it runs for at least 2 days without draining fully.
I'd read that some people have had problems with the main keypad but I've found it no tougher to use than the N95.
The FM transmitter is superb, will be using it a lot on holiday to play music in the car rather than bringing a huge pile of CDs.
I'm using the onboard 8GB for maps and my old 8GB MicroSD card for music and photos
It comes pre-loaded with a load of the apps that I'd recently installed on the N95, such as the E-mail client, OVI Maps 3.0 (Don't get me started on the licence transfer grief that I've had with Nokia for the last 2 weeks) and the BBC iPlayer client.
Some people have commented on the phone locking up or rebooting but I'm tied to v10.086 until Orange authorise its release - So far I've only had one or two, many fewer than the N95-1 on original software.
Its a good deal heavier than the N95-1 and it remains to be seen if this is noticeable when I go running again as I wear it in a water-tight sports armband just in case the water filled ditches are as deep as they were 2 years ago when I drowned the N95-1. I'd thoroughly recommend the small arm holder by aquapac, it may be more expensive than the others but its the only one that guarantees to keep your phone 100 dry (and it floats)!
All in all, I'm pleased with the phone after upgrading. I've been waiting for a worthwhile replacement for my N95 since December 2008 when my last contract lapsed, I'm glad I held out for the N97 and then chose the N86 instead .

Strange Symbol and Dead IPOD!!!

I'm having problems getting my IPOD to work.
I believe it is a 20Gb G3 (one with 4 buttons below the screen and a wheel).
When I turn it on, the apple symbol comes up for a couple of seconds and then a strange symbol, like the charger that plugs into the bottom of the IPOD comes up.
The IPOD then dies.
Any help would be muchly apreciated.
Thanks.

could we have alittle more description on the symbol? like a pic maybe? or it could jsut be too old and dead

Nokia n86 a good phone??

ok, my phone got stolen recently so im looking to get a new one for christmas..i had the 5800 and loved it,but i wouldnt want to get another one on xmas day - it just wouldnt be the same lol. so, im looking into phones, the max ill spend is 350 -whats the besty phone i can get for that price?
i want a phone thats loud, like the 5800 and is generally easy to manage.
i dont want one that slides into a keyboard - too awkward!!
i was lookin at the Nokia N86, it says it has integrated speakers..is it a good phone?
please give me suggestions, i need a new good phone ..
thanks

The N86 is a tad bit smaller than N96 and the thickness of the N86 is tad smaller than N96 aswell but the N86 is a little bit heavy from N96.
Sound of the speakers arent really low like the 5310. N86 speakers are decent and has good quality sound but not loud as N96, N95, 5800. Lets just say N86 volume output is a tad bit quiter than 5800. 5800 speakers are louder than N86.
Either phone you wont regret N86 or 5800XM but id go for N86 due to the 8MP Camera, FM Transmitter, AMOLED screen which is really good. Battery life on N86 is awesome

Power button and other functions on my Nokia N86 s...

After I downloaded a few applications for my Nokia N86, the slider preferences (i.e. the sound clips that play when opening/closing the slider; the answer/hang up call function; and the key lock) stopped working. Some apps refuse to open (no response). Also, when I push the power button on top of the phone, it does absolutely nothing, thus I cannot turn my phone off.
I am affraid to take the battery out and let the phone power down then up because the power button might not be able to turn it on.
This occurred after I downloaded a few apps off of cnet.com. Here is a list of my downloaded apps with the most recently downloaded ones listed first:
F-Secure (anti virus added and scanned after problem started - no viruses present)
Handywi (wifi locator)
fring (social networking bundle)
DivX player
Google app (m.google.com/app)
Google maps
Opera Mini (web browser that now refuses to open)
HNN Soft Talking Dictionary (Chinese/English that now refuses to open)
What should I do???
(Yes, I have the most current software update)
(Not sure if it matters, but I live and bought the phone in Taipei, Taiwan)

I HAVE PROBLEM WITH UPDATE IN NOKIA N86

Hi, I did some searching here at the forum and found this post. Seems that a possible way to update could be using the stand alone program "Nokia software updater" and if it fails too, like the post linked to below, you can run it in compatibility mode, and as an admin.
Take a look here and give it a try if you cannot get Ovi suite working:/t5/Software-Updates/E75-update-using-ovi-suite-always-errors-12017/m-p/879597#M83558
