  • Sync Issue: E72 Sync with PC Suite / Ovi suite ove...

    Hi! 
    I am a new user of Nokia & just bought a E72. I have a nagging issue with Sync'ing the mobile with PC. I boot up my PC (Vista SP2), connect the Phone over USB & sync using  PC Suite / Ovi suite without any issue.
    But once I disconnect the Mobile from the USB sync Cable & connect the phone back to it. It can no longer connect over USB. If I enable Bluetooth, the  phone would be connected to PC Suite / Ovi suite over Bluetooth.
    Since I don't want to connect over Bluetooth as it's slow, only option left with me is to reboot the PC and then connect the the phone back to PC suite or Ovi Suite over USB..
    Though, this appears more of an issue with Windows Vista, but just wanted to to know if anyone faced the same problem & have been able to find a solution to this problem.
    Thanks 

    I suggest you reset your phone first: *#7370# 12345 reformat, lose all data.
    Then, Uninstall all the Nokia related software (drivers etc...) with a program like "Revo Uninstaller" or Nokia Uninstaller. Then use a registry cleaner. Reboot the PC or laptop, install the latest version of Nokia PCSuite and when the program asks, connect the phone. 
    ‡Thank you for hitting the Blue/Green Star button‡

    Hi, farby thanx for the reply, First of all my phone is already unlocked and one my friend is also facing this same problem. as i have mentioned that there is update available on the nokia website. its just he Updater software which is not updating although it is connected to internet. maybe you should look to the picture i have attached to this thread. In the pic it is saying that 20.0.16 is the firmware is present on my mobile But you can check it out that the latest firmware available for N95 8GB ,,,, 31.0.015. and just look at the difference in the firmware versions. Its not like that N95 8gb is a latest phone and would have to wait for the new firmware. There should had been many firmware updates available between 20.0.16 to 31.0.015 versions. i hope so that you will understand which i am trying to explain. thanx bye

  • N900 PC SUITE / OVI SUITE Problems. Need help.

    HI, 
    I am having big issues with conecting my N900 to my PC. Had a long list of troubles uninstalled everything after expeirencing Driver issues on to get Phone parent issues after re install. went through it all again and downloaded latest version of PC Suite 7 from nokia site and it's been installing for 2 hours now and is stuck at 32%.
    Really frustrating just upgraded from E75 which worked perfectly with OVI Suite. now i have N900 that i can't back up or update. Non of the solutions i've read on the board have helped, i'm now into day five of uninstalling - re installing and downloading. Doeas anyone have a solid fix for this soon to be thrown out the window N900 ?
    Many Thanks.

    Surprise surprise USB Phone Parent (no file located) !!! So disapointed, Somebody at Nokia must be able to offer a Solution. Without PC connectivity the N900 is just a very expesive Brick.
    Firstly i live in the poorest contry in Africa so when i paid over 1000 USD for the phone i was annoyed that it had a chrging problem as many people have had i notice from the boards. I go to Europe and take it to a Nokia shop, I am told "no we can't fix it it must be done in the country you bought it". Well thats kinda impossible as Nokia have no facilities in Mozambique, so another 800 USD trip to South Africa to get it repaired.
    Secondly Absolutely no assistance from nokia with the PC connectivity issue for either OVI or PC Suite.
    I knew the iPhone was the smart choice ! anybody wanna buy a 1000USD Brick OR Help me resolve the PC connectivity issue?

  • HELP! pc suite/ovi suite won't read sms on my 5800...

    Hi all! I have a VERY BIG problem. I own a 5800, I have about 3000 sms on the memory card. I want to move them on my PC, so i can delete from my nokia. PROBLEM IS: neither pcsuite nor ovi suite (even 2.0) can access my sms. both software fail. here's what happens.
    pc suite: i run nokia communication centre, then it starts checking messages on my cell. after few seconds, it says there are about 2500 messages, at this point i see the bargoing from 0 to 70% real fast, then when it reaches 100% it says there are only about 50 messages on my phone (basically, it only lists the MMS, totally ignores sms)
    ovi suite: the first time i used it, i synced messages with my cell, and it only synced about 2200-2300 of them out of 3000. since then, every time i try to sync messages with it, it says that for some reason it cant' read the data from my phone OR that the usb connection doesn't work (i tried with bluetooth, also, and i get the same error, so its not the connection).
    in other words... i can read the sms fine on my 5800, it says there are over 3000, but when i try to access them with a pc software, it doesn't work for some reason.
    HERE'S WHAT I THINK MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED.  some time ago, using pc suite, i did a restore of a backup. during the restore, i got an error while it was restoring the sms. at that time, i didnt pay too much attention, since i noticed all the sms on my phone were ok, none was missing. but what I THINK happened is that since then the sms structure on my 5800 is screwed... and for some reason, my phone can read them fine, but pc softwares dont.
    now my question is: WHAT TO DO? i dont want to lose all my sms... i NEED to copy them on my pc... then i can even format/reset my memory card, but i need to copy them first. any help? anything i could try? please help... thank you!

    first of all, thank you for your reply!
    no, very few of those 3000 sms are from operator/config messages and such... maybe 10 or 20...
    i tried nokia pc photos some weeks ago... and it worked, infact i can still see the sms/photos saved on my pc from that day. if i try it now, tho, i get the same errors i get with pcsuite/ovi suite... sync fails and basically does nothing, doesnt update any new sms (last one appears to be of the end of april, which is the last time i had used nokia photo).
    this seems to confirm my fear... for some reason, probably after that messed up restore i did, something in the sms structure on the memory card got messed, and now no software can read them properly, even the cell backup program. but for some reason, my nokia can read them fine, if i simply access the messages.
    question now is... does nokia have a tool to fix cases like this? i find it ironic that my cell can see all the sms but none of the nokia programs can actually access them. thank you very much!

  • Pc suite/ovi suite loses software connectivity via...

    Hi there,
    Software in use:
    PC Connectivity Solution:
     Version 10.50.2.0
    Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver:
    Version 7.1.36.0
    Operating system:
    Microsoft Windows 7 64-bit Edition
    Language: English
    In both lastest Nokia Pc Suite  or Ovi Suite, very often , most frequently when using the messages area, the connectivity it's lost with the phone at the software level (E51).
    The telephone still looks connected via USB, but I'm not able for example to refresh/resync messages, or send messages. 
    However phone still present in device manager, and the usb symbol on the phone screen it is still present without disconnection.
    I've tried uninstalling of pc suite, using also the pc suite cleaner, upgrading to the latest firmware for the phone, but no luck.
    The issue arrised after upgrading to a version of pc suite, latest at that time, maybe two - four weeks ago or so (7.1).
    If you have any suggestions kindly please share.
    Also if any of you have a link to an older version for pc suite 7.0 I'm thinking to try a downgrade. 
    Many thanks,
    Eugene.

    Downgraded to 7.1.50.2 , issue still persists.
    Problem started not after software upgrade as I wrongly assumed, but after switching from 32 bit to 64 bit system.

  • Nokia PC Suite/Ovi Suite - MS Outlook '10 x64

    Hello,
    can somebody tell me how long I still have to wait until I can restart syncing my contacts, calenders etc. with MS Outlook!?
    Obviously, Ovi developers have been unable to update the Ovi Suite so far so that it would be able to properly sync with the latest version of MS Outlook. That is quite annyoing, can you finally deal with that problem? Maybe before I buy a new mobile?
    That would be really, really great, thanks.
    Cheers,
    Fellkneul

    Could you please try this?
    1. Please, check on Task Manager (press ctrl+shift+esc) if you see NokiaOviSuite.exe process twice on the process list? If yes, kill all the instances of NokiaOviSuite.exe, nokiaaserver.exe and NokiaMServer.exe. If not, a reboot should fix the issue.
    or
    2.Choose from Sync menu “Repair sync”. This operation may create duplicate entries in case the sync engine is not able match the records from different end points with each other. Also, all the deleted items which have not been removed from the other end points will be restored to the end point where the item was deleted.
    or
    3. Update phone software (Please take backup before going for software updates.
    or
    4. Atlast uninstall NOS

  • N96 & PC Suite & Ovi Suite connectivity - USB

    Hi
    Forgive me if this has already been covered.  I've searched the forums and have not found a definitive answer.
    Win XP Pro SP 3
    Micro USB cable supplied with N96, standard USB cable for N95
    N96 Type RM-247
    Software version 20.050
    N95 (01.01) RM-159 
    V 31.0.017
    PC Suite 7.1.26.1
    Ovi suite
    I have an N95 and two N96's.  Both N96's have been updated to the above software using PC Suite.  After the update, neither N96 is recognised by PC suite.  N95 is happily recognised.  I've installed Ovi in desperation and it opens knowing that I have an N95 but will not connect to either N95 or N96
    The N96's connect as unknown USB devices.  In Device Manager I have 5 USB 2.0 devices with Yellow question marks.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled PC suite 5x.  I have also uninstalled the cable drivers and PC Connectivity.
    Also, connecting the N96 to the USB cable will sometimes result in BSOD - a driver conflict.  Has anyone any ideas how I can get the N96's recognised?  The software update seems to have caused the problem.
    Thanks

    I uninstalled again last night, used CC Cleaner to clear all traces, checked DM - only the N95 is listed and then reinstalled PC S 7.  The instant I connected an N96 to the USB cable, I got a BSOD and a driver error notification.  Went to bed after that......

    I tried everything, forums, MTP trick, reinstalling, register, pc suite cleaning software, and nothing works. Please advise,

    Hi Lexicanum, Welcome to the Nokia Forums!
    Please check the following:
    Your phone is not in the ''USB Connection On Standby'' mode. Newer Nokia phones enter a power save mode if a USB cable is connected, but the connection has not been used during the last few minutes.
    Your PC is not in the power saver mode. 
    Your USB cable is not damaged.
    You could also try:
    Disconnect the USB cable from your phone.
    Press your phone’s power button for about 10 seconds.
    Reconnect the USB cable.
    Wait for the backup to continue.
    If your problem persists I suggest taking it to the Nokia Care point as it seems you have tried many various other troubleshoots.
    Let me know how you get along.

  • Ovi Suite + 5230 USB not working

    Preamble:
    I recently connected my Nokia 5230 mobile phone to my PC via USB connection and loaded up Ovi Suite (2.2.1.23). Everything worked lovely. But alas! Both an Ovi suite update was available, as well as a update for the phone itself! So I downloaded the latest version of Ovi Suite (3.0.0.284).
    Unfortunately, now Ovi Suite does not detect when I select "PC Suite" USB mode (selected on the phone screen). This essentially makes Ovi Suite useless.
    So I followed some advice on other discussion pages (more on that later) and reinstalled the Ovi Suite. The problem persisted.
    Here are some pictures to help you understand my problem:
    http://i.imgur.com/5IknF.jpg
    The computer is able detect the phone is connected via USB. I can even browse the contents of the phone memory and memory card. Upon detecting the connected phone, and me pressing 'PC Suite' on the phone screen, it will show this:
    http://i.imgur.com/lV0rs.jpg
    I cannot progress past this screen. The Ovi Suite simply does not recognise that I've selected that option on the phone.
    Defense:
    I know what your thinking. "Just another USB thread". Well, I did in fact read plenty of threads on this forum before posting, and have spent the last few hours uninstalling and reinstalling Ovi Suite and drivers in various ways (as suggested in those threads), with no success.
    The following is a list of forum threads which I have read and tried all the solutions found in each, and I have copied the solutions (which appear to have worked for other people), for your convenience:

    Solutions which did not work for me:
    Could you please follow these steps and check?
    1. Disconnect your phone from PC if connected.
    2 .Open Control Panel and go to ‘Programs and Features’
    3. From the list of available programs, choose ‘Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver’
    4. Click on the ‘Change’ button on top toolbar.
    5. In the setup dialog box that pops up next, choose ‘Repair’ and select ok. Wait for setup to complete.
    6. Restart the computer if prompted.
    7. Now connect your phone to the PC. Driver installation should complete and PC suite (hopefully) should detect your mobile properly now.
    1. Uninstall all nokia related applications like Ovisuite, pc suite, connectivity cable driver,pc connectivity solutions, nokia software updater etc. from ur PC.
    2. Restart your PC
    3. Now download and install the recent ovisuite from http://www.ovi.com/suite
    4. After installation, disconnect/disable your internet connection (this will make sure that the PC use the drivers which comes with ovisuite and  prevent the PC from downloading any new drivers from internet) and then connect your mobile and wait for drivers and support software installation.
    5. After drivers installation you can connect your mobile to ovisuite from ovisuite screen.

    Once all the required drivers are installed automatically, you try connecting the mobile by selecting 'Connect your device' from the bottom left on the OVi suite screen. You should be able to connect your device now.

    Do the same for PC Connectivity Solution - Change then repair
    Reboot computer
    After re-starting the computer, I also followed this portion of a suggestion from another post (don't know if it made a difference or not):
    "connected the device, waited till all the drivers were loaded.
    Then launched Ovi suite"
     (From /t5/Nokia-Ovi-Suite/E52-Sync-Error-8393f010-838c03ee/m-p/740481)
    Ovi Suite then recognized my device and the sync appears to have gone smoothly.  I hope it works for you too!  It's ridiculous that it causes so many problems though--I've wasted many hours on something that should have installed correctly the first time.
    Other threads with this problem, which I came across that mention the same problem with various other phones:

    So this is not really a problem for me. I have the working, older (2.2.1.23) version of Ovi Suite installed on my netbook, and sure enough, it works fine, I just tried it. I wont be updating Ovi Suite on it though. I also could probably just download the update via 3.5G using just the phone itself, but the problem remains that a simple software update has caused a critical connectivity problem between your software and hardware. Given that many Nokia customers would have less technical know-how than say, myself or anyone else on this forum, this problem is a quite likely a huge inconvenience to them, they probably wouldn't visit these discussions and spend 5 hours reinstalling software like I just did, and they surely would be thinking twice before purchasing another Nokia device in the future.
    tl;dr - Nokia recommended update breaks connectivity between software and device, various attempts to fix seemingly simple problem don't work.
    Solved!

    SAME PROBLEM. And none of the many suggested solutions has worked for me yet. I want to thank all on this thread (and many others) for their help. I've learned a lot but I haven't gotten to the bottom of it. I think maybe Nokia needs to ... uh ... bloody well BOTHER TO FIX THIS ISSUE themselves, maybe. Like, cuz they're PAID FOR IT and I'M NOT. Harrumph.
    I run Windows XP, and was on Media Player 11, but have rolled back to 9 and 10. I have a Nokia E 72. I have all the latest Nokia cable-drivers, PC Suite, OVI Suite, Connectivity software, etc.. The symptoms are as follows: when I plug in the phone by USB cable, the laptop won't recognize it. It says "USB device faulty" or "failed to load properly" and refuses to get the hardware into its brain. The Device Manager shows only a "Unknown Device" which I cannot install drivers onto. Taking the extra media-card out of the phone doesn't make any difference -- nothing I've done will make the computer recognize the main (built-in) card in the phone. I can't browse to it via any sort of populate / repopulate disk drive, or any other method of connecting it.
    As I understand it, this is some conflict with the phone and the new concept of MTP. Media Transfer Protocol confuses the computer, causing it to kind-of think that the phone is kind-of a media player, when in fact it's a whole lot more. So, the "parent" doesn't get loaded, then the rest of the phone doesn't get loaded, then it kind-of tries to load some MTP but fails, etc.. If I could browse to the phone through a non-Nokia connection I'd be happy to do so in order to implement any of a number of the suggestions above. But I can't get the computer to recognize the phone when the phone is plugged in by USB, regardless of all the solutions above.
    The problem began a few days ago. It just up and wouldn't recognize the phone. I hadn't installed any updates that I knew of on either item, but it's possible that my memory is faulty and a newer version of this or that snuck in there and screwed it all up. I have tried a serious roll-back to a Restore Point about six weeks old, but that didn't solve the problem. This suggests to me that the problem is phone-resident, since the rollback was to a computer-based Restore Point and I don't have phone rollback capability. 
    This seriously hampers me. PC Suite, OVI, and some future version of Nokia Suite, will all be useless to me unless Nokia accomplishes the stunning act of supporting their software. I won't hold my breath. Just in general, you'd think that plug-and-play of a phone into your computer would be a lot simpler. Just take the cord -- stick it in the phone; stick it in the computer -- and shazam, you're plugged in. But NOOOOOO we're on NOOOOOOKIA ... Now I know why Microsoft wanted to buy them so badly. They knew they'd all get along and have the same assumptions about software -- that it doesn't really matter whether it works reliably on a user's computer at his home, as long as it works in theory on some programmer's ideal personal computer in Seattle once in a rare while. Nokia? Meet Microsoft. Microsoft? You and Nokia will get along juuuust fiiiine ...

    I dont see any PC Suite option.
    Also whenever i connect the phone to the PC...i get a found new hardware wizard with the following message.

    had this problem after doing a hard reset on my x6, pc suite and ovi suite would not recognise phone.
    The solution above worked great although i had to restart the pc after repairing drivers for it to connect.
    reason for hard reset was because the screen kept going all washed out/scrambled every now and then tho could get it back to normal after playing with lock button. hard reset did not fix this issue which i am still having.
