Nokia n96 navigation question

Hello, my nokia I n96. Question: is there some possibility to use free my navigation only using the satellites without wi-fi or some other internet connection. and please tell me if there is some opportunity for using only satellites what other programs I have to install instead of ovi maps? Thank you!

As far as I know, free navigation is not available on your N96, well it isn't available on mine anyway. You need to purchase a license for a nominal fee. Without the license you can still use it to map and track your location on the map.
With regards to network data charges when using Ovi Maps, you should disable all Positioning methods apart from Integrated GPS and you need to set Ovi Maps to Offline. With this setting you will also be able to use other applications which use GPS such as Sports Tracker without inccuring charges. However, please note that certain GPS applications such as Google Maps cannot be used without data connection.

Nokia N96 - A long review!

The Nokia N96 Long Review by Jupstejuho
v. 1
(Please notice that this is the first published version so I will
be making this much longer a bit later if you just want me to do so)
In this case I have only reviewed the phone's main software
things, not many of its good-too features.
--> A BIT INFO -->
Firmware used: Unbranded Scandinavian v11, upgraded to that from v10 wich was originally branded
Phone used: Elisa Finland network branded, simlocked Nokia N96-1
Operator used: Elisa Finland
Memory card used: 512MB (have not actually even touched it as the 16GB has been fine for me
More settings used: Screen brighness set to full 100%, display light set to disappear after
30 seconds of inactivity, Online mode always on. Screensaver set to none.
1. THE FIRST WORDS
OK, as all of the active Nokia people around the internet already know, there
are many reviews in the internet considering about the famous, all-new Nokia
N96 smartphone. It is a new part of the Nokia´s 3rd generation phone series,
the N-Series. The Nokia's N-Series is a quite big group of some really good
phones using much more advanced technology than the previous camera phones
that Nokia, and many other well-known phone companies have made. That is the
Nokia's N-Series in short. But, I am not writing this long review for all you
Nokia-People to just tell you what Nokia N-Series is, you basically did not
come here to read about that. I am writing this because I want to show you
my first feelings about the Nokia N96. I hope you have time to read the whole
review
2. ABOUT THE PHONE'S DESIGN, LOOK ETC. ALL ITS OUTSIDE-SEEING THINGS
So let's start from the usually first things that most people want to know
about a phone before buying it, the phone's ergonomy. The Nokia N96 feels
really, really good in my hand. Althought the phone seems to be quite big,
it fits in almost anybody's hands really well. It is not so thick, comparing
to my good old Nokia N91. And that impressed me pretty much. The phone is
relatively wide, but does not weight much (about 120 grams). The phone's
outlook is something I like, it is somehow much like the Apple's iPhone
within its big screen and black'n'white and grey colours. But, I was very
sad when I actually realized the biggest mistake made in the phone's
design. Its outer casing is actually made from cheap plastics, wich leads
to the very unliked feature... The Nokia N96's cheap plastics are in all
only not good-looking, but also really effective fingerprint magnets! The
phone's outer casing takes fingerprints really easily, and you can see
them very well in a bright sunlight, that is something I really hate. But,
that is luckily the only problem on the phone's design, I think. Just that
the phone's front side is quite widely crowded with many buttons. I really
like the phone's frontside's media button, as it reminds me of my good
old Nokia N91's Musicmenu-key. It is surrounded with the play/pause, stop,
forward and backward keys, and the already-known menu key, C-key (also known
as the backspace key) plus the green & red answering keys and the two
softkeys. All this is has been made to fit around the phone's joystick,
wich also had to include the handy Naviwheel option, but they removed it from
the software, wich is sad in my opinion. They have removed the handy
pen-key, wich formerly worked pretty well as a shortcut for many nice
programs that i used to play around with my old Nokia N91, that is sad but
I guess they had a good enough reason for removing the key.
>>> To the phone itself, features etc.
3. PHONE'S USER INTERFACE IN ALL
The Nokia N96 uses the same OS that almost all N-Series devices use, the
Symbian S60 3RD. But this time it is not just that. The Nokia N96 is one
of the first phone's to get the new, famous Feature Pack 2 (FP2). A feature
pack is like the "Microsoft Service Pack" for phones. Just that you cannot
upgrade any NON-FP/FP1 device to FP2 unless you really are an employer of
Nokia, and that the Feature Packs are for phones, not for computers
Symbian S60 3RD is the 3rd edition of the famous Symbian OS for phones,
wich has all the features that are required in order to say that a phone
is REALLY a Smartphone. OK, I am now comparing the FP2 Nokia N96 to my old
Pre-FP1/Non-FP1 Nokia N91. The phone's standby screen is pretty much the
same. Just that you can also set the standby screen to be in 3 different
modes. No active standby at all (The old S60 style), the normal already
known active standby row of 6 different program shortcuts and a new
arrangement, the one that is more complicated. It has the icons in the right
side of the phone's standby/idlescreen and you choose the icon and you see
its features at right side. Anyways, I chose the good old S60 3RD arrangement
as it is not too complicated for me. Going to the phone's menu is easy, you
just press the menu-key and that's that. The taskmanager is renewed, this
time it is horizontal and looks better (I guess they have made the idea from
the nice IQ AltTab program wich I used to use with my old Nokia N91. Yeah,
well pretty much nothing has changed. The phone's messages application has
been also renewed... It now has only 2 message types: Text Message and Sound
Message. If you want to send somebody a MMS wich contains a sound clip,
that means you have to choose the Sound Message-option. If you want to send
a normal SMS, or an MMS wich contains picture or video etc, you have to
choose the Text Message-option. Just choose that and write your message.
If you only add text into that, you are sending a normal SMS automatically.
Add any MMS-content in it and it will automatically be an MMS message.
That is a quite nice new feature. The phone also has a new Themes-application
and its icon has been removed from the phone's menu! You can get to it by
setting up an active standby shortcut for it but it will take you straight
to the Active-Standby Themestyle option wich is a part of the Themes
application. The phone still lags pretty much, as it is brand new.
The same problem was with the Nokia N95 when it first came. I guess the
phone does not have so much features that the Nokia N95 does not have.
Well that's all about that.
4. MEDIA COMPLETION
The Nokia N96 is advertised as a Videoplayer phone. That is true, but that
was not the reason why I bought the phone. The phone can play MP4, 3GP and
surprisingly they are advertising that the phone can also play WMV9 videos.
That is actually true, but the phone did only play the video's sound, not
the video itself Well that is OK for me as I do not have a reason for
playing WMV videos with my PHONE. The phone can also of course play music
but supports only a little amount of filetypes. Pictures are (surprise,
surprise) supported too.
4.1 DVB-H
One of the phone's new main features is the DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting
Handheld) receiver. That means that you can watch digital television wherever
that is available. Here in Finland we can only receive DVB-H signal in the
big cities (luckily I live in Oulu and I can receive DVB-H signal in here...)
But I would be pleased if I could be able to see that signal in places like
cars, trains, planes and ferries but that is not gonna be possible ever,
because only a really small amount of phones have the DVB-H and hardly anybody
watches it. I do not look it unless I have a good reason as it takes a lot
battery. You can also record DVB-H and schedule recordings, that means you
actually have a recording television receiver in your pocket But I do not
have any reasons to do such a thing.
4.2 VIDEOS
The phone, as I said earlier, is being advertised as a pocket-sized video
player. The phone has some pre-loaded factory videos (Some advertising
videos and 1 Transformers Movie). I tested DivXPlayer and it played
small video files (like 100-200MB) really well but when I tested a 350MB
TV-Series episode, it lagged all the time after playing it for 2 minutes.
I also tested CorePlayer and Smartmovie and they both had the same problems
except that the CorePlayer played the file hardly for 2 seconds and started
lagging. But I converted the same file with SmartMovie converter to a 80MB
file and it had much worse quality but still it played with no lagging at
all You can also convert any video to a .3GP or .MP4 file but I guess
that it is better to play your video files with SmartMovie or DivXPlayer.
The videos captured with the phone's camera are relatively big, a 4minutes
long video with the best possible quality that the camera has, is over
50MB big. Oh, and one more thing: I just also realized that the phone
supports Winamp Remote really well. Just for all of you who are not familiar
with the Winamp Remote: Winamp Remote is an application wich lets you watch
any videos from your computer´s hard drive over an internet connecton with
quite high quality. I tried that and I was amazed that it worked. Althought
you have to put the flash player as default way playing the video, because
it laggs too much when watched using the Real Player. Oh, and that brings
one another thing to my mind: The Nokia's default web browser now also
supports Flash videos I tried youtube and it worked pretty well. And,
as I said earlier the Winamp remote Flash Videoplayer also was able to play
my PC´S videos So, Nokia N96 is good for what it is originally meant for:
PLAYING HIGH-QUALITY VIDEOS ANYWHERE, ANYTIME whenever you need to do so.
4.3 MUSIC
The phone has music keys and I just love them. But the music player is not
anymore being started automatically when the phone is being started and
that means you have to manually put it on if you want to be able to use
the music buttons for playing music. That sucks. The phone has really nice
stereo speakers and they are very loud and I just love them. The earphones
supplied with the phone are really, I mean REALLY bad. They suck, but with
20-40 € you can get some good earphones like KOSS. They have also removed
an old really nice feature. The phone always lists the newest added music
tracks to a list, but you cannot anymore add the newest tracks easily to
another self-made playlist. That is what I hate as I used to do that with
my old Nokia N91. :@ That sucks, I don´t know why on earth they made such
a change in the Music Player. Quality of the music played with good
earphones is quite amazing. But also playing music eats the battery as fast
as a worm diggs itself into mud, you cannot play the music so long time,
but as I am not a music freeak that does not matter so much to me (I prefer
listening to .XM keygen music with my computer and Logitech speakers) But
I can also listen to Keygen music with the LCG Jukebox, I have done that
once for real at school and I just loved that as it made me more creative
at the arts lesson
4.4 PICTURES/CAMERA
The phone has a 5MP camera with a LED flash and a red LED light
to "help" with taking videos The phone takes really good images
especially when the phone's flash is used. It can take amazingly good
pictures even when there is no sunlight at all The flash is really
amazing. I don´t know why, but I even think that it takes better pictures
at night comparing to the pictures taken at daylight. Umm, I guess you
can use the phone as a camera in emergency situations when you need to
be able to take a picture of a good situation. The front camera wich is
intended for Video calls takes really awful pictures when there is not
enough light, especially the videos ARE JUST AWFUL but that is just because
who would use the front camera to take pictures of anything else (just for
testing purposes and taking some stupid images of yourself Um, and yeah I was
surprised about that, but it does not matter at all anymore Taking videos
with the 5MP camera at the back is nice because they have quite good quality!
But they are also relatively big and I guess that is one more feature that sucks,
as the video quality is not too good! One more new and really nice feature is
that you can set the phone to automatically save the location where the picture
was taken into the picture's metadata and view the location in the Nokia Maps
application. Almost all photos that I have took with my phone have a "geotag".
5. NAVIGATING/GPS
The Nokia N96 also has a GPS receiver with A-GPS support. I was first surprised
that the phone really knows where you are in just 10 seconds or a bit more. But
when I noticed that it is only caused because the phone has A-GPS and I had set
it on. And what is so bad about that? The A-GPS does not know where you are so
specifically, the accuracy in A-GPS is almost everytimes something like 100
meters so using the phone as a navigator is not so good but I guess it is just
fine for me! The phone has 1 year navigating license for the Nokia Maps application
(wich BTW sucks), but I prefer Garmin wich is better in all ways But while I
was testing navigating in the car, it was working fine. When Garmin said that
"waiting for better GPS signal", it only took about 5 seconds for it to already
show me that it had a full signal with 5-10m accuracy! Yum that is going to be
a nice feature because I am going to use it while travelling at Europe next summer.
Navigating is much, much better comparing, for example to the Nokia E90 and
some external Bluetooth GPS receivers. I am pleased that I know that I am always
carrying a really powerful GPS navigator in my pocket, and it is ready whenever
i just need it to be used
6. N-GAGE/GAMES
Nokia N96 also has pre-installed Tetris and an activation code for that is being
given with the phone (wich BTW WAS NOT WORKING FOR ME!). I installed brothers
in arms AND IT LAGGED LIKE A HELL?! What the hell is the problem with that, they
did not add a 3D Accelerator chip to the phone and they are still advertising
it as a "Good N-Gage gaming phone" Haha, I just shall laugh about that. I guess
I WILL NOT BE USING THE PHONE FOR GAMING THEN. So overall, if you did not already
understand my opinion about the Gaming features in the phone: DO NOT THINK THAT
THE PHONE IS GOOD IN GAMING... Also, tried Vampent´s vNes and it was not able
to start emulating (it was when I tried with my Nokia N91! Well, also the joystick
is a limitation wich makes it nearly impossible to play games with the phone.
It actually isn´t a joystick at all (they do not even advertise it to be that
I liked my old Nokia N91's joystick as it was really nice for playing games! But
playing games like Tetris should be fine. Also I will be going to try playing
games with the numeric keys, maybe that will be fine ;D
7. THE 16GB MEMORY + SDHC Memory Card place with hotswap support!
Yep, that´s true. I was first really impressed when I heard that the Nokia N96
has a HUGE 16GB memory and also A SDHC memory card spot. That was one of the
main reasons why I really said myself: If I am going to buy a phone, it will
definitely be the Nokia N96 unless something REALLY impressive will become
to the markets. I put my favorite tracks and kept almost all of the factory-loaded
videos in the phone and I still have a bit over 10GB free space (I also took about
hundred photos) not even mentioning that I also have installed Garmin Mobile XT
with all European maps to the phone (also Navicore and TomTom, they just weren´t
working and I was too lazy to be able to remove them or try solving why they
weren´t working) They are advertising that the phone can take up to 40 hours
of good guality video. Yeah that is just amazing and it is true too. Borrowing
to one guy's words who has been showing the N96 prototype at youtube: "So you
really, really have enough space on this phone" That is so true. I just wonder
what the hell I am going to do with all that 10GB left space ;D
8. A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE BATTERY LIFE
Many have complayed about the Nokia N96 battery life. I cannot understand why!
It has better battery life than in by Nokia N91. Two listed examples by me:
* I just charged the phone at around 7pm. I went to sleep and the clock was about
10pm. Before that, I decided to put a 1 hour long TV episode to a scheduled
recording. The phone did that very well. And I was surprised that when I looked
at the phone's battery state: It showed me that it had 100% full battery life!
And it kept there until I watched the whole 1 hour episode, then it still had
6 bars left of the 7 bars maxium. Pretty impressive.
* I put the phone to charge itself a few minutes before I went to sleep.
At morning I went to school. At there I watched TV episodes using Winamp
Remote for about 30-45 minutes. Then I listened to .XM keygen music with
LCG Jukebox for about 2 hours! Also I was playing with the phone a bit more
time too. When I went to home, it had something like 2 or 3 bars left. That
is not a very good example but that is already enough for me, and the
phone has had much better battery life after this case
---> [OVERALL REVIEWING] ---
* The Nokia N96 is a good mediaphone but it is also enough
good to be used as an officephone. The stereo speakers,
DVB-H, GPS and a good camera, 16GB mass memory and a
SDHC memorycard slot... That is just everything I would
ever want from a phone! But all this comes with a price
wich will make most people just dream about the phone,
or buying it from an operator with a cheap price like
I did. Even thought the firmware is buggy, I can still
recommend the phone for anybody who likes to have a
good-looking phone with all possible mediafeatures!
The phone is still buggy but that was with the Nokia N95
too. I cannot understand why people are saying that
"Nokia N95 is soo much better and looks better..." that
is so not true. The N96 beats N95 hands down! And overall,
the phone would be too perfect if it would not have bugs,
all new phones have bugs! Think about the iPhone, it was
not even able to send a MMS message but it has been enabled
in the new firmware update. Also iPhone has been buggy when
it first came but it has been improved much. The same will
100% surely happend with the Nokia N96 too! They already
have released v11 wich has made my phone a bit faster too
+ A big screen with bunch of colours!
+ 5MP camera takes good quality photos
+ GPS finds location fast with the A-GPS feature
+ Really good stereo speakers!
+ Supports WMV
+ The phone is not too thick and it is smaller than N95
+ The phone just looks sooo good!
+ 16GB memory + A SDHC memorycard slot!
+ The phone's 1-9 keys are nice and they can be easily pressed even
thought they are really flat! Writing with the phone is fast
+ The phone just looks so good!
+ DVB-H with scheduled recording and awesome quality!
+ Battery life is just enough!
- The GPS is fast but mostly not accurate except at outside
- Music-Player no longer gives an option to add a freshly added
music track to another playlist I have to find all the
freshly added tracks manually from the All tracks-section if
and when I want to add them to a nice playlist
- The front camera has a really bad picture and video quality
- The software in the phone still has many bugs
- A fingerprint magnet & Cheap plastic materials
- Price!
- OH, the gaming features just suck

Um, yes I can (BTW, nice that there are other N96 likers too, as I am also very surprised that there are so many haters )
You can get Winamp Remote from here: http://www.winamp.com/player/free-download-full?lang=en-us When you install it, choose Winamp Remote as a part of the installation. You can get more help from the Winamp Forums. Winamp Remote should be easy to use, but if you need more help ask from the Winamp Forums or PM me (One of the main things is that you have to have ports forwarded fine, that is quite hard to explain but go to: www.portforward.com and follow their instructions meant just for your router, I am not sure that do they have instructions just meant for Winamp Remote but if you are lucky enough you just should be able to do the tricks in half an hour )
DivXPlayer is available at here: http://labs.divx.com/system/files/private/DivXPlayer_S60_3rd_0.sisx AND PLEASE NOTE that DivxPlayer takes so much memory that it CANNOT PLAY FILES OVER 200MB. I tried a 150MB DivX .AVI video and it played very well but I tried a 350MB DivX .AVI video and it lagged like a hell. You can use Lonely Cat Games (LCG) SmartMovie to convert about 350MB file to a 80MB file with just fine enough quality. I know that talking about "illegal" things is forbidden in here but just a small tip: Find a good Mobile Phone stuff forum, they are giving some good and CR@CKED applications for free (normally they are asking huge prices for them) There are dozens of good mobile forums just waiting for somebody who needs all that stuff For example the SmartMovie will put the video's image grey after two minutes (if you have converted the video with that tool) of playing it. But just some little googling and you are fine to go But supporting software studios is also important, so if you just have enough money I really suggest that you buy all your softwares!

Nokia 6110 Navigator - software update to be suppo...

Hello.
I have a Nokia 6110 Navigator.
Is the operating system to be supported by the software update system at any time soon?
Do any people knows when this phone will be commercially available?
Thanks!

Just one question for you guys, why do you prefer 6110 over N95?
N95 has a better camera, and it has WiFi as well. All at a considerably higher price (+ $300).
Apart from that, 6110 offers mostly the same features. The battery lasts longer, and the use of GPS is much faster. No extra costs for downloading of maps or subscription for the use of GPS.
Try to check out the difference between 6110 which uses Route 66 maps, and N95 which uses Nokia Maps.
I also highly recommend you to read phone reviews on the internet, e.g. by entering "Nokia N95"+review (or test) in a search engine.

Nokia 5800XM navigation edition, comes with music?

So my question is, is the nokia 5800XM navigation edition supposed to come with comes with music too?
I have bought the navigation edition and there is no comes with music registration code in the package.
Thanks in advance
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The link below shows all Comes With Music compatible phones. This does not mean that the phones automatically include a Comes With Music subscription. You have to check the box if there is a sticker that indicates the phone contains the subscription.

Nokia n96 heating

i don't know if this is the right thread, but when i use garmin xt mobile in nokia n96 for about 1 hour the battery starts heating when i plug it to charge in car then the battery starts cooling sometimes i think i will break my phone using garmin, i had n95 8gb i was using it the same way with garmin when n95 was burned inside completely, so is it safe to charge the phone non stop in car driving and navigating. i contacted nokia support and they said that this is normal so if u ask me it is normal for e phone to burn.:manmad:
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I presume you have an X5 E70.
I had the exact same problem with you at the start.
I had to delete the pairing on both idrive and phone and then re-pair about 5 or 6 times before it finally worked and it has worked ever since. Cannot explain how that works but it did and has worked well since. One tip, after pairing, do not use the phone for a few minutes to allow the contacts to download. You can use the menu on the idrive to scroll down the alphabets to ensure all is downloaded first.
Every now and then there appears to be some kind of conflict between the bluetooth and the HUD and the mic stops working. Disabling and reenabling the bluetooth on the phone seems to fix it.

Nokia 6110 Navigator 5.11 Buglist

Nokia, after a year of no support for the Nokia 6110 Navigator despite many bugs, please readd firmware-update-support in Nokia software updater, and fix those bugs remaining in the firmware 5.11 installed by most Nokia service centers since July 2008:
1- when alarm is set to workdays "monday-to-friday" (or whatever 5 day-period) the date on the phone doesn't change on saturday night. On sundays it still shows saturday although the time is correct, and the alarm doesn't work till the date is reset and then everything goes normal till the next sunday when the problem happens again.
2- No matter if you use the original Nokia Sound recorder or third party software, all the recordings have a loud crack sound in the beginning.
3-Volume +/- does not function while playing games.
4- Dual line 32kb sim cards fail to switch to the second line and resets the phone when switched to the second line.
5-Line 1 ringtone and Line 2 ringtone options in profiles disappear for no reason although using a dual line.
6-Deleted numbers in Logs->Recent Calls-> missed/received/dialled logs still remain in the log list view which shows coloured arrows.
7-Even if the sent message history is turned off, the numbers which were sent messages are still shown in the log list shown with arrows.
8- Numbers dialed/received calls list occasionally clears if phone turned off
9- If the phone gets connected to computer over usb cable, and used once on pc suite mode and then once in the data transfer mode, then the vibration is disabled until you reboot the phone. (Settings suggest the vibration is on, but in fact it is simply turned off)
10- On the internet bookmarks view, (accessed through the web icon) if a bookmark is deleted or moved to a different folder they are still shown in the root until the application is closed and re-opened. And if tried to open them by mistake the phone responds "it doesn' exist".
11- If you conect the phone to Nokia software updater by usb cable in pc sync mode, then connect it by data-transfer-mode, all your own created folders including moved icons will be lost and reset to default.
12-It's not possible to use voice dial with voice synthesis turned on.
13- No flash lite 3.0 support
14- If a memo is set or synchronised from outlook the memo still shows on the screen even if the date has been passed.
15- If we try to change the date of a past memo by changing both the start and end date to a future date the phone gives an odd error message that says: "Alarm time already passed" What alarm time? There's no alarm option or alarm time field in memos.
16- The phone occasionally shuts down completely (turns itself off) without any warning for some users.
17- Nokia CK 7W bluetooth carkit and other carkits from other companies (for example Funkwerk-Dabendorf Audio2000 with Bluetooth Adapter version 2) have an echo problem where the remote person hears its own voice and a terrible echo. This seems to be due to the fact, that inbuild microphone on the phone is not turned of completely.
18- While entering a new phone number after typing the number a phone type is selected such as telephone, mobile, work mobile etc.If selected the wrong type there is no way to change tis type unless the number is deleted and re-entered which is a hassle.
19- If there are more than one mobile numbers assigned for a contact as "mobile" type (like mentioned above) set default option does not work.
20- The bluetooth A2DP quality has gone worse. It is skip-happy, and degrading of audio quality is very obvious.
21- If any mp3s have embedded images in the id3 tag, which are not quite square (e.g. 194pxls by 197pxls in one of my files), the music will play, but the phone will almost totally lock up if you try to use another application, and the album art won't show at all.
22- Notes in the organiser on the phone cannot be synchronised with the PC via Nokia PC Suite(Outlook 2003).
23- Music Player on the phone finds "zero" audio files when connected to Nokia Suite via USB.
24- If a call is made while connected to a bluetooth carkit (CK 7W in my case) the latest number dialed won't appear in the logs.
25- When navigating in the standard "Nokia Navigator" Route66 application, if the display mode with all info at the bottom (the only mode that display ETA) is set the phone normally remembers this mode between sessions. When signal is lost (typically after a tunnel), the display mode is reset back to default. Please add the newest Route66 updates! As easy as that! Route66 already released 3 new official updates during this time.
26- If an internet connection is established via the browser and closed, the internet connection stays on constantly until the battery is very hot and voltage is drained only if the e-mail update (push e-mail) is set to "ON".
27-The streaming mode is problematic. An H.264 video encoded in 320x240 resolution could be watched full screen in the streaming mode in the previous firmware however the phone will freeze within 1 or 2 seconds after switching from the standard window size to full screen size after 4.22 if watched during streaming.
28- Real Player(Or music player) doesn't update the playlist unless the phone is not restarted.
29- For some of the users some videos start with the first frame and then shows a black screen for a while and then the video plays normally. (DivX Avi files?)
30- System startup dramatically slows up if using a HCSD memory card.
31- Sound cracks occur in high bit rate mp3's if using an HCSD memory card.
32- The flash provides such an artificial colour tone to the picture which makes the picture looks almost blue or green in all cases.
33- If a user decides to use an alternative navigation software he/she should be able to remap the dedicated navigator button to the executeable of the 3rd party software.
34- Sometimes Nokia Navigator-Program is unable to get a satfix, even if satellite-signal is good enough (3 satellites and more above 70% signal-strength). You have to restat the program to get a satfix. Also new Nokia Navigator/Route66-mobile8-version would fix this problem.
35- When you receive via bluetooth a file with an "unknown extension", there is no way to open the message that contains the attached file and, therefore, there is no way to save the file itself.
There are certainly more bugs, those ones are the ones found by a few customers, the most obvious ones, that keep us nagging since a year now. It seems, you are not testing your phones, as bug #1 (alarm-clock) for example is obvious and was not fixed since the release of the phone.

And I'd like to add these remaining ones from our other threads..
36- When listening to music on the handset and a call comes through, the sound switches to Mono after you hang up and the music resumes playing. And the only way to restore stereo sound is to restart the phone.
37-6110 keeps showing alot of devices in the "send to" bluetooth menu that was paired with and deleted long ago.
38-Joystick press can be used for accepting commands at all areas except for messaging. When message is ready to be sent you cannot click joystick and send message. You need to select options and send and then choose select from the menu.

Moving event with mouse in iCal gives me problems on Nokia N96

When I move an item (event) with mouse in iCal, and then iSync to my Nokia N96, I get multiple events in the Nokia Calendar. As if I copy-pasted the item too many times.
The multiple events are on the hours, on which I have dragged around the event.
Somebody having similar issues?

i've been having the same prob as u with my N96 however after i reverted back to factory settings and it's behaving for the time being (touchwood) i've read on posts here that people r having the same prob with their 2nd even 3rd phones so unless u r planning to change ur's for a diff model i'm not sure how helpful replacing the phone will be. I along with many others 'am sure r waiting for the new firmware to come out which hopefully will sort out most of the stability issues. i contacted Nokia and they advised me to wait till the firmware update as well.
i hope this helps.

New firmware Nokia 6110 Navigator version 6.01 soo...

Hello,
I have found on a few different nokia-related-pages that is a new firmware for nokia 6110 navigator (version 6.01). no information about bugfixes, nokia service centers seem to already have it. more to come.

Ok here comes the first news and bugfix list from 5.11 (and i add 4.22 infos) (i use the numbers from here: /discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&message.id=40488&query.id=554906#M40488 )
a nokia service center did update my phone to version 6.01.
firs of all: seems to be a again just a mini-upfate as 5.11 was.
- Nokia 6110 Navigator gets firmware 6.01 (02-09-08)
- Nokia Navigator-Program is still version 8.0.12274 (11422) as it was in 5.11, no updates, no routing towards coordinates as in newer route66mobile8 available.
- New firmware seems to get better satellite-signal (not faster, but better signal and therefore more satellites that are actually used)
- No flash lite 3.0, still 2.0
- Maybe sound quality improved in carkit-mode for the one using the phone, was not yet able to try to talk with another person
- Battery bug fixed (as in 5.11)
now concearning the other bugs:
1- could not yet try that alarm-bug
2- fixed, i hear no sound-crack
3- not fixed, volume +/- still not activated in games
4- i have no dual-sim, can not try this
5- idem
6- not fixed, deleted numbers still in protocol
7- didnt try yet
8- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
9- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
10- could not reproduce the problem
11- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
12- didnt try yet
13- flash lite 3.0 missing
14- didnt try yet
15- fixed
16- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
17- in funkwerdabendorf-carkit with bluetooth soundquality seems to be improved, but didnt yet talk with someone else on phone
18- not fixed
19- fixed
20- maybe improved now
21- didnt try yet
22- didnt try yet
23- not fixed, but might be due to the fact, that pc suite has full access during that time to the memroy, therefore musicplayer not
24- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
25- not fixed, old nokia navigator-oem/route66mobile8
26- fixed
27- no changes
28- didnt try yet
29- didnt notice that
30- no change, still rather slow
31- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
32- not fixed, flash still very greenish/blue
33- no change, button still linked to nokia navigator
34- not yet noticed, but due to the fact that it is the same version as in 5.11 and i have had the problem there too, the problem might still be there
35- didnt try yet
so here we go. you might find out too, what they fixed and what they havent fixed yet.

How to delete an image from bluetooth in Nokia N96...

I am using Nokia N96. I received some images from a freidn via bluetooth and i have transfered them to my PC. I need to delete the images in my Nokia phone but it seems not working. Please advice me how to delete these images? coz teh Option DELETE is not working here.
Thanks a lot!

hi El_Loco
I received the images via bluetooth. Then I connect my Nokia N96 to my PC at home. I cut and pasted the images from the mobile folder to my PC. (If I cut and paste, by right the images should have been gone from the mobile phone memory..is that correct?) However, after I disconnect my Nokia from my PC, the images are still in my Inbox folder.
The wierd thing is: The name of teh file is still there, but I cannot open them, and when I tried to delete them, there is a message: General: Already in use !
So..it looks like because I cut and pasted from my PC, there was some errors in the Nokia phone? The file names are there, but I can no longer open them and nor delete them.

Can't locate Wi-Fi on Nokia N96.

i cant locate wifi on my Nokia n96
Moderator's note: The subject was edited. A new thread was created.

Hi, McMozelle. If you're trying to find the Wi-Fi settings, go to the phone's main menu > Tools > WLAN wiz.. To start a search for available WLAN's, select the status and then Search for WLAN. Otherwise, may we know the reason why you're trying to locate your phone's Wi-Fi?
We'll wait for your response. BTW, welcome to our community.

Share online 3.0 for Nokia 6110 Navigator

Is there a possibility to get Share online 3.0 (or older verisons for nokia 6110 Navigator)
Thanks in advance,
Mokic

Try to download a version for another model with a similar operating system (like the N95) and see if it installs.
Get it here: http://europe.nokia.com/A4388352
If it doesn't install then it is not compatible with your model. This is because it's a feature designed for N series phones.

Nokia 6210 Navigation - license purchase

Hi, i'm from Malaysia.i'm using Nokia 6210 Navigation. I'm going to Hong Kong & Macau, i've purchased the license for Hong Kong & Macau - Drive & Walk. After the purchasing, i received a receipt through SMS, but there is no license code for me where i find out there is a "enter license code" in my phone. Should i enter the license code to activate it?
How do i know the license is activated in Hong Kong? Am i only notice when i'm start using in Hong Kong?
Please help me.
Thanks
Saxon

Hi,
You can check wether the license has been purchased correctly by Opening the Maps application and going to Options > Extras > My License.
Your license should be listed here. If it is not, i suggest Updating (can be done from the Options menu within My Licenses).
You will need to allow the device to go online to check the license server, but it should then acnowledge your purchase.
If you still have problems, please send me a private message with your IMEI (*#06#) and i will investigate further.
Cheers
Chris
