Nokia n95 charging

my nokia n95 is chargeing all day and all night can someone help please :-(

Unplug it after a couple of hours (full charging doesn't take longer than that).
Otherwise, check that you don't have background activity going on (e.g., Podcasts synchronization, email polling, web/RSS feeds updating, etc.)
Any background activity will of course also deplete power and keep the phone charging.
If there are no application configured to run in the background, then it might be a faulty battery, faulty charger or broken phone.

Remove N-Gage that came with Nokia N95 firmware ve...

I've noticed that when you uninstall the N-Gage aplication,
it leaves in the Nokia N95's read only memory (ROM,)
the aplication ngiinstaller.exe, this causes a death link in the
aplication menu called Games.
How do I remove this link, it's no longer needed, they sould'nt even putted the N-Gage standard in the firmware, the link does'nt delete by hand, only says that it is not removable.

HELP!! Nokia N95 restarting !! and more!!

Okay
im now on my 3rd Nokia N95 from the 02 network
the first 2 handsets had high pitch whining noise and awful sliders which were wobbling on the right hand side, appaulling workmanship, i dont even know how they were allowed to leave the Nokia Factory like this!
maybe the workers were all drunk or something?
it isnt only me thats complained of these faults, check all the other forums about the N95!
anyway, my 3rd handset has been working ok
(or so i thought)
everything was working fine, no wobbly slider, no whiny noise..
but about 3 - 4 times per day as of 3 days ago, the phone just restarts itself when its just sat there!!!
WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING ?
have i now got to sent this **bleep** handset back aswell?
i dont want to drive 20 miles to nearest Nokia Service Centre, WHY should i ????
i also left my house this morning at 5.30am to take a friend to the Airport, the phone was unplugged from the Charger with full battery life, i used sat nav to get there and back, its now 9.35am and i have 2 bars left on te battery life!!
truly appauling if you ask me
will new firmware sort the resarting and battery life?
or do i have to just give up on this handset and buy another model by another Manufacturer?
im at my wits end with these N95`s

I saw some build quality issues highlighted on a review: you'd think they'd at least check phones that were going to reviewers!

That's a typical problem for a newly released N-series. Unfortunately, this is only likely to be fixed by a firmware upgrade. Check you have the latest version. If you do: you're fresh out of luck .. for a while.

That's no surprise at all: when you use the GPS the phone is working all the time. It's kinda like you made a 4 hour (or however long the trips were) phone call. The surprise is that you have any battery left at all!
When I use my N80 for navigation, I usually have either the phone or the GPS receiver on charge virtually all the time.
It's probably no consolation right now, but most of us who bought phones soon after their release have gone through very similar teething problems and we know how hideously frustrating they are. The good news is that if you do hold out, the 2nd or 3rd firmware release normally fixes the worst of the problems and you do finally get that awesome phone you thought you'd bought.

Nokia N95 : Cant Turn On

My Nokia N95 is not turning on after I connect it on a usb charger.

Yes, I kept the universal charger for hours and hours... Unfortunately, my N95 wasn't able to turn on. It only shows its logo for an hour. Without lights and sounds until the battery gets no more energy.
Thanks for your helping!

Hello,
1) No
2) For the amount of data you download (per megabyte)
3) Not that I'm aware of. Video downloads cost for data as in answer 2 but with the N95 you can download via W/LAN if you have it or access to it. The upside to this is that it is part of your main internet access charge. Also for question 2 again.
As far as video goes, I tend to convert dvd's of my favorite movies etc and transfer them via pc suite.
As you are with T mobile, I think they do an unlimited data bundle for relatively low cost.

Nokia N95 through Orange and Satnav

Can anyone advise. I purchased my nokia N95 via an upgrade through Orange. I wanted this phone specifically because it has satnav features. I was told that i could purchase the software needed to activate the satnav feature through Orange and that it would be at a small one off subscription fee and that there would be no further charges to use the Satnav.
Well i have just received my phone bill and i am being charged for using my satnav each time i use it !!! I specifically asked about this feature an the salesman clearly said that there would be no further charges. Also using the satnav i have found out that each time i download maps for the city of birmingham Uk which is where i live, because the software cant find simple adresses in the area, i am being charged by orange for this too!!!
I phoned Orange and they tell me that i will always be charged for using satnav as it connects to the internet via their web network. They told me that a third party were charging me for downloading the maps and not them. This, i have subsequently found to be complete BS
My question is
Has anyone found a way to use the satnav on the N95 without being charged for every second they use it or can anyone sugest another satnav system that can be used on the Nokia N95 that does not require regular downloads to simply use the maps that are supposed to be already included in the **bleep** software ????
Also can someone explain to me what WiFi is and what voip is ?
Cheers

you need this for the free maps http://www.smart2go.com/en/download
also the easy way to explain voip is to say.. connect anywhee in the world via wi-fi and call a mate (who also has voip) and it won't cost you a single penny. visit truphone for more info on voip, but unfortunatly for you, orange have screwed the handest so you'll have to install 3rd party apps to get the (unseamless) voip to work on your phone. see this thread. /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=42579#M42579Message Edited by rich_enduro on 08-Jun-200712:16 AM

Hi Nick,
Not certain what is causing the problem, but I do know that your phone needs to download maps, so you should connect using GPRS or Wifi to download the maps and then you should have maps for your locality, but you will need to connect again if you move outside of the locality. The best advise I would say is to get an internet add on for your phone so you won't be charged extra.
you may be able to download maps and load them on also. You may also need to turn off the network assisted GPS so you are only using the built in GPS not the internet to find where you are.

Nokia N95 8GB auto shutdown problem

Hi everyone!
Yesterday my Nokia N95 8GB (v31) suddenly having weird problem. It will shut down itself, without giving any notice. The shut down case happen when it run about 30 minutes. I suspect is battery problem, but during it was charging, the phone also auto shut down itself.
The weird part is after it auto shut down, it can't be boot up again, unless I manually take out the battery and wait for some time and put it back, then it only can boot again.
Anyone here know what is the problem? It is battery or the phone? I need a solution...
I've re-formatted the memory card and hard reset the phone, also no luck...
Thx

Nokia N95 8GB (Canada) - Chinese?

I bought a Nokia N95 8GB in Canada officially from local dealer (Rogers). Everything is in English which is fine. However, I wanted to install the 'Chinese-English-Chinese Dictionary' which is officially from Nokia!
It can be found here:
http://www.nokia.com.hk/A4700248
I have installed it, and when I use it, all the Chinese comes up in symbols and things like that.
Is there a language pack I can add or do I have to change firmware or what? I do NOT want my entire phone to be chinese, I want it to stay English, menu stays English, everything, just want to read chinese and chinese application.

There is a language pack but only a Nokia Care Point can install it. You'll have to take your phone along to a NCP and ask them to do that for you.
Note that there may be a charge for this because the absence of Chinese language support from your phone isn't a fault. Also note that you'll have to have the language pack re-installed if you reset the phone or update its firmware.

Nokia N95 GPS Navigation

Dear All,
I am James and recently bought a Nokia N95. It comes with GPS Navigation but not sure how it works. Looked in the user manual but still not idea of how to work it. I have played around with it and downloaded Google Maps but find it difficult to get a reception.
I want to know how to download maps onto it, what connection is needed and how it actually works?
Any ideas?
regards
James

Hi,
I'm just back from the US were i used the GPS a good bit. like most GPS's, Navigation on the N95 told me to turn right then left on on straight roads with intersections (watch out for this, always look at the map before turning as you'll see that the route line is straight on screen), sent me down bizarre side roads, never went the same route to a place as it did going back (very strange), but other that that was very handy.
The one major bug I'd like to report is in v20 of the firmware (can't say for others versions), despite disabling network communication in the settings, the phone would still startup my GPRS data pack connection while roaming. Even when I set it to use Wi-Fi, it still made a connection over GPRS. I work out it cost me about a €10 in unnecessary data charges. Easy test to see if you get the same problem: Startup Maps and say no to data usage, exit or Press Menu, Tools, Log. You should see that a Data pack connection was initiated at the same time you started the Maps App. The only way around this I found was to set the phone to offline mode. But you might as well buy a proper GPS if this is the only solution.
Good luck!
I had exactly the same problem. Once activated, network mode could not be turned off and it cost me around $50 in a day and a half.
As soon as I tried to shut it down in Maps>Options, it either shut down maps or rebooted my phone.
Keep network support off, is my recommendation.
To cure the problem, I had to reload my firmware and software...everything but settings. If you reload settings, you reload the problem.
I spend hours today doing just that. Settings are probably the least important part of my phone history so it wasn't too big of a deal and the effort was totally worth it to save me mega cash while using maps.

Nokia N95 8GB data counter accuracy + T-Mobile (UK...

Hi.
I have the 10GB per month web 'n' walk max package.
I use the Nokia N95 8GB as a modem for my computer as I do not have a land line.
I reset the Nokia's data counter (uploaded and downloaded totals) on the 1st of each month.
Since T-Mobile changed the service about 3 months ago I receive text warnings when I reach 80% of the fair use policy (i.e. 8GB) and a text if I hit 100% (i.e. 10GB). If I hit 10GB I am told that I will still be able to surf but not download at peak times.
There seems to be a big difference between what T-Mobile claim I have used and what the phone's counter shows. This month, for example, I have received the 80% warning but my phone only shows a total (up & down) of 6.3GB, 1.7GB difference.... quite large I feel! Last month I received a text telling me i had hit 100% but my phone only counted 8GB total.
When I contacted tech support they checked the system and came up with different figures. The 1st system which I believe is the same one customers can access by logging into t-mobile.co.uk and downloading the unbilled data usage figures gave about 8.7GB total. This system until very recently used to crash if you attempted to download the internet usage and had used a few gigs of data... useful. The support person then checked a second system which gave a total of 9GB. However these two different systems are not the ones that generate the warnings and also the cut-off (or rather reduced surfing restriction) texts. So T-Mobile have at least 3 systems.
So I have some obvious issues. T-Mobile have now stated that the data counter in the phone will not be that accurate and will miss some data, implying it is to do with counting compressed data rather than uncompressed. I disagree. The phone counter will surely count all 1s and 0s coming through it regardless of what they are. At this point I made the analogy to my electricity supply... the meter is in my house, that is the device by which I and my provider go by. They do not have a meter at the power station end. They bill me for what comes into my house at my front door and not what is sent out. That is the most accurate method for the customer.
I wonder what Nokia would say if T-Mobile inform customers that their hardware can not add up?
I believe there is a trading standards issue looming here as I do not believe I am getting what I pay for. At best appears to be 90% use. Whilst it is true they do not cut me off entirely if I exceed the 10GB, they are not letting me even reach that point. I seems similar to the current issues surrounding quoted broadband maximum speeds and actual obtainable speeds.
So has anyone had similar problems and disagreements about the fair use policy? Does anyone have any information / ideas about the Nokia data counter accuracy?
I am on the verge of contacting trading standards and any other suitable body about this.
Many thanks.

Thanks for replying.
If you are right, and as you say "I'm guessing", your butcher's analogy seems a good one. I know that the full data packet is not just the actual data but has the header attached (which I think can be up to 60 bytes?) but assumed that only the size of the contents would be counted not the wrapping. I wonder if this is what is actually going on. It would seem extremely unfair if it is especially as it can make a good gigaybte or more difference.
T-Mobile do not provide a reliable method to keep an eye on what is being used so what chance do I have? I still come back to my electricity supply analogy which I would say is similar to yours. My electricity supplier doesn't charge me for any electrical losses that occur between my front door and the power station (well not obviously anyway).
T-Mobile don't provide any software if you use the phone as a modem (unlike their web 'n' walk software if you use their USB dongle) and suggest you find software on the net to monitor your usage. However all the software I have tried seems to have limitations as to what type of data it can and can't monitor so is less than accurate and all have crashed at times and lost the running totals. The only accurate tool in my hands seems to be the phone itself.
Surely the customers shouldn't have to worry about transmission specifics, without those the net wouldn't work at all so how can they be charged for? Customers I guess would only want to pay for the actual data they are using. If I download a 1MB file I only want to pay for 1MB. Will the TV license people start charging extra for digital TV as the data is sent in packets?
Hmmph!
Thanks.

Hi I hope some can help as between NOkia and vodaphone i am going mad I have bought a Nokia N95 phone and last weekend i was playing around with it,I must say my husband has the same phone and has no trouble with.I log onto the maps and littlr yellow lights go back and forth until it is replaced by green ones when it finds the satalite, but then it does nothing,my husbands automatcly homes in to out adress.but my N95 does not, i have asked nokia but to no aviale,they just told me to log on to the maps and it will home in automatacly which it does not has any one else had this trouble.I can manually zoom in with the * and the # keys but it will not do it by itself.My husbands N95 has a picture of a satalite dish in the bottom right hand corner and mine has some thing totally diffrent with the little lights going back and forth, and changing from yellow to green,The other thing i bought the N95 to use as a navagation unit as well as a phone but to my horrow last week just by playing about with it logging on and off and looking at the maps i was charged over £10.00 from my pay as you go balance.I thought it would log on to a satalite and away you go like a tom tom or similair i did not know it had to go through a internet connection can any one enlighten me how it works because i cant see how any one could afford to use it with this kind charge
Any help would be gratfully recieved

Hi Purravida,
You might want to delete the old maps and folders from your memory card - the location of the maps has changed. Nokia Map Loader 1.2.1 seems to be downloading the maps to the old directory system if it exists but your software on the phone will be looking at the new directory and will try to load the maps over the data connection.
I had to delete the hidden Private directory and all of its contents to get the Nokia Map Loader to recognise that there is a new directory structure on my memory card. It could have been something else, but that fixed my problem of the new Nokia Maps not finding the downloaded maps (and trying to download them over the data connection.) Be sure to make a backup that you don't delete anything you would need...
Cheers,

Nokia N95-3 Screen Problem!!

I recently bought a Nokia N95-3 from Amazon and this is the 6 day that I have it. Last night it was almost fully charged. I left it atop one of my drawers and haven't touch it until about 10 minutes ago. I tried to unlock it and notice that it was turned off! I was wondering why it had turned itself off. I go into my room to charge it and it says low battery! I was wondering how that happened since when I left it last night no programs were running and the backlit light was off. And on the bottom right side of the screen I notice a little something. First I thought it was a smudge, then a pencil mark. I tried to get it off using a microfiber cloth that I use for my camera's screen and that didn't work. It looks like a heart moniter black line about 1 cm long. I have been very careful with my phone and I haven't scratched it,dropped it, or used it carelessly. I even use the little pouch it came in to protect it. Here are some pics of it. Tell me if I should contact Amazon or Nokia! Thanks!

I have the same problem too. I got 2 growing (and shrinking) black lines near the top. The problem started to happen a few hours after buying it. The weird thing is, the 2 lines grows and shrinks on daily basis. However, when they shrink, they always come back to the full length afterwards. I think this is more of a software related issue than hardware.
Sending an email to Nokia customer service didn't help. They just didn't reply back.
I will try to take it back to the store (CompUSA) for a replacement. It's very frustrating. Anyone know how to resolve this issue?

New Nokia N95! Yeee ha! 4 digit postcode search......

YES: I just bought a new Nokia N95!
The *ONLY* reason why I purchased the phone was for the in built GPS - no other reason!
Turn it on: 2 minutes later I find out that you can only do a 4 digit postcode search!
(Also: damn annoying... you have to click on 50 buttons to get to the postcode search bit... that is just damn silly... poor usability... poor design on Nokia's part - is it possible to assign this to a shortcut key?)
Damn!!!
I was happy to put up wiht having to pay £45 for 3 years navigation...
But the 4 digit postcode search annoys me.
I've read in another post on a forum that you get 7 digit search if you upgrade.
Can someone confirm if this is true?
In the post, the poster upgraded to 10.008 or something.
I've just checked my firmware... it seems to be recent: 11.00 or something like that.
So maybe upgrading my firmware won't help??
Thanks.
