Nokia N97 Mini Wi-Fi Keeps Seaching

Hi,
I am experienceing a very unpleasant problem with my N97 mini and so far I haven't seen any recommendations or recovery tips on this one. When I go into the WLAN settings and start searching for a connection (for example my home Wi-Fi), the phone just keeps searchin and never stops. In the back it only show "Other (Hidden Network)". I've also tried to you the hidden and typing in the name of my home network. Didn't work. I updated the software, tried a few other things, still nothing. It just keeps on searching...
Please help me and let me know if someone had the same problem.
Regards,

If it is your own wifi then you should have the passphrase if you set it up or altervatively, some routers come with the security preset in the factory in which case the passphrase is usually printed on the label underneath the router.
There are a few possible reasons why your phone may not be seeing the router. The most common is the router is set to hide SSID. Check router settings to make sure SSID is not hidden.

Nokia n97 mini home screen keeps disappearing

Hi all
I have only had my 97 mini for a week now and it is by far the worst phone I have ever owned. I have spent over 12 hours trying to get it working correctly, but alas I am ready to give up. If I leave the phone sitting for over 15-30 minutes and come back to it my home screen is gone. Only the two black key boxes are left at the bottom of the screen with no text in them. I have no clock either just my wallpaper and signal strength. To reload the home screen I press menu key and look in open apps, then hit home icon to reload the widget. I have tried a hard reset, updating firmware and now formatting memory and hard rest. So far no luck.
I have found when I have no messaging services loaded ie. exchange or nokia email, the issue it is not as frequent.
Can anyone shed any light on what the cause of this isuse is please? I am ready to throw it out the window. My sony C702 had a few issues, but they are very minor when compared to this piece of crapola.
What a wast of time, Nokia can I jhave my 12 hours back please????
Ice

I,ve had this problem and the only thing you can do is long press the menu key, elect home screen and it will come back ! Very annoying, but tends to be intermittant, may go a few weeks without a problem, then occur for several days, if you get a solution please post !!

Hi Klicko,
As per your post, hard reset does not work because the code was changed. If that is the case, we can suggest you to do the Key Combination Reset for your phone. You can do this by:
1. Opening the slide of your phone
On the keyboard, press simultaneously Shift (left) + Space + Backspace and press the Power button
If the hard reset is successful, the device is reset to factory settings and boots up prompting for the country, date and time settings. However, if this will not work successfully on your phone, the best option that we can do is to bring the phone to the nearest Nokia Care Center within your place for the to be reset to its original setting by our authorized technicians.

Nokia N97 mini firmware

First of all I would like to excuse me for my bad English as I am from Latvia!
Recently I have bought a new Nokia N97 mini. I have backed up everything and written down all the name of software that I afterwards uninstalled as I thought that it would be better for firmware update process. My goal was to update the phone to the newest firmware for my phone, however I got into problems with all the versions available.
So this is the information on my mobile phone:
Software version: v 11.0.102
Software version date: 01-02-2010
Custom version: 11.0.102.C01.01
Custom version date: 01-02-2010
Language set: 13
Model: N97 mini
Type: RM-555
Latest update: Not updated
>What I understand is that that some custom firmware version is installed there. I should mention that it is brand new and right out of box from Finland so I don`t think that anyone would have made custom version, installed it and repacked the phone.
When I use Nokia Software Updater in my PC (MS Win 7) I got informed about that that the latest possible version is already installed.
When I use Nokia web site using my telephone code written under the battery I got informed that latest available software for my device is: 10.0.020, however in phone there is version 11.0.102.C01.01 installed.
When I was looking for the latest software release for Nokia N97 Mini it was 12.0.110, however there was mentioned that it is only for certain devices.
So the question is if the latest firmware (12.0.110) version custom package is available for my device. If it is possible that there in my device there is a newer custom version (11.0.102.C01.01) installed than my Nokia N97 mini device support (10.0.020) than it should be possible that there is some newer custom firmware (12.0.110) available for my phone.
=============================================================
So where can I obtain it? And speaking generally were (exact internet address of FTP or HTTP protocol handled server, with login information, if needed) all Nokia N97 mini firmware`s could be found? I would even try to install non-customized version 12.0.110 of it on my phone. Maybe I don`t even need any custom version and all Nokia N97 mini devices can handle any Nokia N97 mini firmware?

I can clearly live without Latvian language and as it is well known that there is no special or no at all services or applications for Latvia region that I could miss. I would better use United Kingdom apps and turn off some really unnecessary services or news.
I would`t reply if there were nothing at all from Latvia in phone. I just need to get it work faster and with less problems form software side. I could use any Nokia N97 mini update version that doesn`t have "Comes with music" services and apps as I don`t have license to it.

Hey, I recently got my Nokia N97 Mini, And im just wondering if its possible to disable the Camera Shutter noise whenever your taking a picture, And is it possible to turn off the Red Light when recording?
Its annoying when im trying to record something, Sometimes it will reflect off surfaces.. Also the Camera Shutter noise is annoying.. Interrupts silence when i want to take pictures , At special events..
Is there a way to Disable these 2 things? Thanks!

No you can't do any of these things! It is for some privacy reasons we can't do it. Let others also know what you are clicking and shooting
Please thank me by giving 'KUDOS' star. It will help me to serve you better.
Currently using N82 and 5230. Next would be N?

Nokia N97 mini,

I have a Nokia N97 mini. I know the screen is not easily breakable and mine is not, but I think it inner screen is mashed and needs replacement. It shows this blue ink in some places on the screen. How much as an estimate will the changing of the screen cost me?

Best is to contact your local Nokia Care because the price will vary according to the region.. you may also ask them about their Service charges...You may find the NCC HERE ..

Nokia N97 Mini - Network coverage disappeared

My Nokia N97 Mini, about 1 year old, suddenly decided it did not want to get any reception at all. I have travelled via train to different places for work and such and noticed it still was not getting reception. I have also tried restarting the phone, trying my sisters sim card and none of this seemed to work. It is getting quite frustrating, so, hopefully you can help me!?

Hello stockobmx, check the network settings in your phone see whether its automatic or manual. If its manual then set it to automatic. Try and reply.

Hi Abhishek23,
As the N97mini is an older model, its software development and maintenance cycle has ended a number of years ago. There will be no more firmware updates for this device, and every other Symbian device produced in the last few years.....as Symbian is now in maintenance mode and the focus is on the Asha line and the Windows Phone platform of which Lumia is part of.
Nokia should have brought the same improvements to N97 mini which were included in the 41.x.xxx and 42.x.xxx software versions for the C6-00. After all, apart from the camera the C6-00 is the same device as the N97 mini, so it should have been fairly trivial. They are not major changes by no means, but useful.
Unfortunately there is at least one major bug left even in the latest C6-00 firmware: http://www.developer.nokia.com/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=153
It also affects N97 mini with 30.0.004, but it appears Nokia is not going to fix it on either device.

Add contact detail to a message Nokia N97 Mini

Hi, I bought a Nokia N97 Mini in January, and I still can't resolve this problem: I don't know how to add a contact detail to the body of any text message. I have had several Nokia phones, for years, and I remember that if you wanted to send a text message, lets say to a friend and this friend asked you for someone else's phone number in order to send it you just start a new message> insert content> contact detail, then you just chose the contact you'd like to send the phone number of and that's it. Now, I can't figure out how to do it with my new phone. Sorry if I sound silly, it's just that I don't know where else to look for. Thnx!

Hi,
I beleive you are using MS Outlook.
Try the following workaround.
Manual sync
Open Nokia Ovi Suite--> Sync--> Sync option--> Uncheck the sync automatically everytime you connect the device.
Then Sync--> Sync now--> Contact,
Repair the "pst" and the "ost" Outlook files as in the following location.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\SCANPST.EXE
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\SCANOST.EXE
Right click the above mentioned exe file and 'Run' it.
NOTE
It's adviced to take a back- up of the user's Outlook folders to avoid any loss of information.
Check with Microsoft support pages for more information.

hello my nokia n97 mini freezes when i turn on my phone when the nokia screen appear usually at the beginning it freezes why? and How i can solve this problem i need a help now please

I understand you correct if it stops booting before you reach the homescreen?
Do you have a memorycard? - You should pull that out and make sure that the memory card isn't causing the issue?
Could it be any apps you have installed?
What FW are you on?
There are lots of things you can do to try to sort this out.
What I would do is to get it updated if possible, if you cannot or are on the latest one and have no clue, do a soft reset and a format of the memorycard and mass storage and rebuild the phone. First with your contacts, messages, music etc, and then with apps. Monitor carefaully how the phone behaves after 3rd party apps you install. - In that way you will have better chances of knowing what may cause problems in the future, and there wont likely be necessary to soft or hard reset it again.
Note that you will have to back up your content before you perform a soft or hard reset as this will wipe your phone memory, same with a format of the memorycard or the mass storage.
If you cannot get the phone on at all, try removing the battery for at least 5 min before putting it back together and try turning it on. - You could also try removing the memcard if you have one.
Do you know how to check for fw updates?

Parental Controls for Nokia N97 mini

Is there a way to restrict Nokia N97 mini with parental controls to download unsafe applications (18+ apps)? I just want to restrict my son from downloading such apps? Thanks.

Whay don't you just press the button Power from the top of the phone and go there and select "Lock phone" (you must know the security code of the phone) and every time someone is triing to acces your phone it will ask for the lock phone.Is very simple and you dont have to install anithing

como paso los contactos de un nokia n97 mini al iphone

Los unicos vendedores autorizados del iPhone en Paraguay son los operadores (Claro y Tigo). Y ellos son los que dan soporte en Paraguay. Si lo compraste en una tienda de terceros, el telfono fue ilegalmente importado (probabelmente de los EEUU). Ya que la garantia NO es internacional los de la tienda tuya NO quieren darte soporte pues tendran que devolver el telfono a los EEUU o pais de origen.
La proxima vez, compra tu telefono de una fuente legitima. Prueba a ver si Claro y/o Tigo te dan soporte, pero lo dudo, ya que no les compraste el telefono a ellos.
