Nokia n95 updating problems

i have problems updating my phone to the newest version as it dowloads it ses updating failed then it ses connect you phone straight ti the usb hub behind the p.c after doing it 5 times its still has the same problem what can i do how cam this be solved

Hi,
Thanks for the answers.
At the end, the only option had been to take the mobile to a Nokia Center. So I'm without GPS...
One thing that i don't understand is how Nokia don't change the way of updating the phone firmware, as the actual way don't seem secure...
The technician in the Nokia Center recommended me that the next time it's better that I don't try to update the phone because it fails a lot of times. (Also said that there are no benefits in updating it... I don't agree much with him :-P). But as i have seen on the net, that kind of error happens a lot, leaving the mobile "dead" and the only way to repair it, is sending the mobile to Nokia...
At least the warranty covers it and the repair is for free...
Kind regards,

Nokia n95 8gb problem

HI i have a nokia n95 8gb and it enters in the gallery without me pressing any button.As soon as i unlock it it enters in the gallery.I can't even take a picture or enter the contacts because it kepps entering in the gallery at images and videoes.I tried updating the soft and resetting the phone but the problem persisted.What should i do?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The only thing I could think of is that the Key that's next to the shutter key, the one that has what looks like a Play key is pressed in.
This key causes the Gallery to start and show the last picture taken. It may have malfunctioned.
You would need to take it to a service point or repair technician to take a look at it.

Nokia N95 USB Problem

I have a problem with my Nokia N95-1 considering the USB transfer to my Memory Card.
I have a 1GB Kingston MicroSD, the latest software (V 20.0.015, 13-11-07, RM-159, Balkans Pack, updated from V13); PC Suite v6.85.14.1 on Windows XP Professional.
While I was transfering some 300MB of music to the MicroSD, Explorer crashed and reported that data might have
been lost during the transfer. I checked my phone and noticed "ghost" files on the memory card (free memory was reduced by 300MB, but the phone couldn't register new files). I retransfered the files, disconnected the phone and started the Music Player.
Music Player said "Repairing corrupted database", hanged for a while and then added newly transfered files to the track list. But, when I tried to play a file, it refused to do it and said "Generalystem error". Phone became slow and impossible to operate, so I had to restart it. Same problem occured again, and similar things happened in File Explorer (shows nothing on the card), LCG Jukebox and LCG Xplore (get stucked when they access it or refuse to start files).
After this, I removed the MicroSD - after this, everything on my N95 returned to normal.
Since then, I've tried to change the USB Cable, USB Port, USB Transfer mode; tried to reformat my MicroSD many times with many formatting tools - Phone Memory Card Manager, Windows Formatter, KillDisk, Panasonic SDFormatter - but the result always remained the same: after I retransfer the files to the card, it becomes useless until I reformat it again.
These programs didn't register any corruptions, but Windows Formatter and Panasonic SDFormatter would sometimes report that they were unable to reformat the card.
I tried to insert the MicroSD into my MSI Mega538 MP3 player, reformat, and then transfer files to it. Again,
transfer itself worked okay, but when I inserted the card into my N95, same problem occured. I tried to transfer
some files to the Phone Memory via PC Suite - it worked great.
I tried to insert my friend's 1GB Kingston MicroSD into the phone. It registered it perfectly - Music Player has
refreshed the database, registered new files and played them without any problem. Same goes for the Gallery - some
400 images and videos were recognized right away, and the phone itself worked fast and stable.
When I bought my phone, I had no problems at all - files could be transfered normally, Music Player would simply
refresh the database, and I could use the files easily - no problems, system errors, system hangs or restarts. But after that Explorer crash, I simply can't use the memory card any more.
Sorry for long post, but I really need your help. Is the memory card corrupted, is it a hardware or software problem
with my N95, or is it a Windows glitch?

Hi ivanik,
I strongly believe this is an issue with the card. Seeing that the phone works fine without it and works with a different card perfectly...
Perhaps it is an issue with the data that your transfering to the card. It may not be compatible to the phone. Thus the phone lags and doesnt play the files.
Try loading different data... perhaps one from a source...
Try this once you have formatted your card...

N95 update problems

Hello, I'm from Lithuania, but my phone is from england. So I want to update it.
[img]http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/6578/nokiacn9.jpg[/img]
Nokia software updater show this and don't do anything, and I waiting about three hours for finish
My phone show only NOKIA. What's the problem? Sorry for very bad english language

I had the same problem when trying to upgrade software on my Nokia N95.
Part way through the SoftwareUpdate upgrading my software on the N95 (using Software update 1.4.98en running on Windows XP Pro SP3) it prompted for the "BB5 ADL Loader"driver to be installed.
I eventually found out the problem was caused by "Spybot Search and Destroy" stopping either PC Suite or the Nokia Software Updater installing properly when they were initially installed. To fix this I did the following:
1) Uninstall Spybot Search and Destroy (or at least disable it's services)
2) Uninstall Nokia PC Suite and any associated USB cable drivers
3) Make sure you phone is not connected
4) Reboot the PC
5) Re-install the latest PC Suite for your phone
6) Connect your phone by USB cable (or bluetooth) - and allow drivers to install
7) Run Nokia Software update
This time the drivers should be recognised and auto-install.
Good luck!

Nokia N95 8gb problems - freezing, fuzzy screen et...

Ok so been using the Nokia N95 8gb phone for about a week now and noticed that there is a tendency for the phone to freeze for up to 10 seconds like when opening other things such as Inbox etc. The problems mainly occur when the phone is slid shut, then when resliding the phone open the phone freezes or sometimes screen stays black until battery is taken out!
When the phone is slid shut sometimes the screen goes fuzzy in places aswell like a TV with no reception. The text and theme on the phone sometimes goes a dodgy colour aswell like a negative photo and sometimes even goes back to front and the wrong way round?? Anyone else had similar problems or knows what this is??

Its unlikely to have the same issue after doing a software upgrade, it could be some application on your memory card or the simcard .
You may try the steps below
- A soft reset by keying in *#7780# when on standby - This will not delete any data but will restore all the settings back to default.
If that does not help then you may wanna try doing a hard reset by keying in *#7370# when on standby - This will reformat the phone. DO NOT FORGET TO DO A BACK UP AS THIS WILL ERASE YOUR ENTIRE PHONE MEMORY.
The security code by default is 12345
Also would be best to reformat your memory card and sim cards well as there might be some applications in there which is causing your phone to lag.
Mark me a KUDOS if this has helped...

Nokia 503s Update Problem

Hi! This is my first post on the forum, I have a problem:
I'm from Argentina and I have a Nokia Asha 503s with the operator Personal Argentina, but I can't update the firmware. Whne I try to update via FOTA on the Setting's Menu but the phone says that isn't available an update.
For this reason I tried to update using Nokia Software Recovery Tool and Nokia Software Updater for Retail and both programs find the update, then download it but when the installation process starts it the phone restart normally (no show any White Screen) and reaches 10%, giving me this message:
"Error instaling software:Error code: 0x8401F141..."
I cancel the installation when the program ask me to recover the installation, and the phone does not apply any change.
Any possible solution?

It isn't possible for you to roll back the firmware update. You could try asking your local Nokia Care Point if they will do it for you.
Have you tried the 3 finger hard reset?

Nokia N96 updating problems

Hello
First, I know N96 is an old phone, but I wanted it so bad, and i got one few months ago. I bough it with 20.050 firmware in it, and when i went check for updates (OTA) it said, and it always says no updates available. I checked the code behind the battery and its: 0543719, checked on the site says there is newer version firmware for my phone available. I tried updating with Nokia Software Updater, again latest version, but it shows error saying it can't identify my device. A friend of mine told me he updates via Ovi suite. I installed it and tried to update. It detected my phone, firmware and everything, it downloaded the latest firmware, but when i go to install, it shows that my usb is disconnected, and then connected again.. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zy8EZd0uBYc)
Is there any way i can update to the latest firmware? Can my phone die or get stuck on the oldest firmware if i do recovery? thanks.

There are 3 ways to update the firmware for the N96 and they are
1. OTA (over the air) which is the preferred method.
2. Ovi Suite/Nokia Software Updater
3. Nokia Care Point.
There is always a risk of bricking the phone if the update fails. This will then definitely require a trip to the local Nokia Care Point.
Sometimes when I encounter problems with the updating process, I actually hard reset the phone using the *#7370# reset code before I update. This could rid the phone of any settings etc that may be causing the problem.
Remember to backup your phone before attempting anything.
Good luck.

Nokia N95 backlight problem...

My Nokia N95 backlight has stopped working recently for no reason at all. The phone turned itself off and when i tried to turn back on i had to remove the battery to do so. ever since then the backlight has not worked. Has anybody had this happen to them or know of a way to fix it..?? I have already tried re formatting and that didn't work etc.

Take it to a nokia care point because it has suffered a hardware failure. Failures like this usually happen after the phone has been dropped or bumped hard but it can just happen.

Nokia Suite and Nokia Software Updater problem

So I tried to synch my calendar and tasks this morning, as I usually do, from my office Windows XP laptop... and the synch failed.
The progress bar that should tell me how far along the synch has got just stayed empty.
After about ten minutes, I quit Nokia Suite, disconnected my phone, and reconnected it.
When I tried to restart Nokia Suite, I got a pop-up:
Nokia Software Updater is running
Please close Nokia Software Updater , as it stops you from opening Nokia Suite. Then, click Try again.
I looked in Task Manager, and couldn't find Nokia Software Updater...
Any ideas what I can do, other than reboot?
K.

Hi Keith_Rhodes,
Sorry to hear about the situation. Please go to "Processes" sheet in Task Manager. Close the process Nokia Software Updater.
You can also go to Nokia Suite > Tools > Options > General > Automatically download software updates > Disable it. Try to sync again.
If it still fails, please tick " Nokia Suite > Tools > Options > General > Start collecting logs, in case the issue does not get resolved and you have to contact Nokia Care line and they need them.
Please let me know how you get along!

Nokia N97 Updating Problem!

I'm having trouble updating from v11 to v12. It says I have the update already but everytime I try to update it just says it disconnects and it doesn't update at all. It keeps telling me it failed and I don't understand what's wrong -_-

Try using the new Beta Labs software updater. You can download it here
http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-software-updater/download_and_installation
Worked fine for me, Ovi Suite was always giving me the Error Code 12017.

Nokia software updater problem

I just have installed Nokia Software Updater for N80 Internet Edition.
I followed the instructions, The firmware version of my N80 were going to change from 4.0632.0.38 to 5.0719.0.2.
Almost at the end of the process, I had to take out the battery, then disconnect the usb cable, after that put the battery, turn on the phone and connect the usb cable.....
But, at this time.... the phone didn´t start up....
I am really worry because even though I tried to charge the battery, the phone doesn´t turn on any led.... I´s now a dead phone....
Please help me with some advices.....

Hi kinzo
Unfortunately things are not looking good. Firstly try leaving battery out for 5 minutes and then replace.
Secondly you might like to look at post from nando61 just input "N93 update fix" into "Search Discussions" at top right of screen. Although different S60 phone to yours, it seems to be a question of whether NSU can be "tricked" into reading phone so that software can be re-loaded.
It appears to have worked on an N70, N73 and N93 so far apart from loss of data unfortunately!
It may however be a small price to pay if you have a "bricked" "N" Series and a visit to a Nokia Service Centre neither practical or feasible.
