Problem of N73 latest firmware vs GPS receiver

Hi guys, I just upgraded my N73 to latest version(V4.0726.2.01))and I find a serious problem. The GPS software R66 in my N73 can never recive the singal from GPS receiver(NAVIBE732) again! I just wonder whether it is NOKIA to change the parameters that force NOKIA mobile phone only can be connected to their own GPS receiver, such as LD-3W! What do you think about it? Is there anybody have solution?

As far as i know, there is no way to use other GPS Receivers than Nokia ones, with the new firmware. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Problem with N73 after firmware update

Recently I tried to update the firmware on my Nokia n73. Somehow the cable got disconnected and the phone died. I read everything on the topic here and went directly to the nearest NCS. There they repaired my phone and updated the firmware to V3.0638.0.0.30 (everything else shown after *#0000# is: 30-10-2006, RM-133, Nokia N73 (05)). But after that, I noticed that when I press the multimedia button, it opens directly the music player, instead of a list of applications. Also when I hold down the menu button it shows both the standby icon and the music one. My problem is that I mostly use the camera, not the music player, and it seems (to me) that it slows the phone down (especially when going through the image gallery). So I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to close the music player, or at least how to change back the multimedia button to a list of applications. I am using the standard 128mb miniSD. Thanks in advance and cheers from Bulgaria.

OPTIONS ->
- Go to now playing
- Go to Music shop
- Refresh music library

Problems with the latest firmware upgrade

I found a problem with the 01-10-2006 firmware upgrade. Now that it is inside my ipod certain videos don't play properly anymore. Actually the video starts, it plays normally for a while and then it goes still for a few seconds and then, when it plays again, the audio is gone.
It always happens in the same point with the same video. In particular, just in case someone wants to try, it happens in the latest nasa video podcast.
I don't know what to do!
I'll try to step back to the 1.0 version...

I'm having this problem as well. Sinse I updated the firmware all of my movies get stuck about every 10 seconds then if I wait a few seconds they start up again but with no audio. I'm quite certain that this is a problem with the firmware sinse the videos play fine on quicktime, they used to play fine in my ipod before I updated it, and I can get it to play the parts it gets stuck at if I rewind it but it happens very frequently and each time takes a while to reload. If anyone has found a way to solve this problem please let us know.

N73 bluetooth GPS receiver connectivity problem

I have read many posts regarding the connection drop issue between the N73 bluetooth and GPS receiver. Now everybody is waiting to upgrade to new firmware version. I was just wondering, if just the connectivity is the problem, then is there any GPS receiver which you can conncet to N73 with some cable?? At least you will not loose the connection if at all you managed to install the navigation software.

Hi forgive my simple question but what is the difference between a LD3W and an LD4W bluetooth reciever as I would like to run either with my N73
regards pc

Is there a firmware problem with N73?

I have a new N73 with TomTom Navigator 6 installed. First thing I did was update the firmware (V4.0726.2.0.1) but now it cannot communicate by bluetooth with the TomTom GPS receiver despite being successfully paired.
Is this a known issue?
Can I roll back the firmware update?

Hi,
and welcome to the club... :-(
Look to the 'Connectivity'- area. There are some threads about that problem... (It is a NOKIA- problem!)

Problems with N73 firmware v 4.0726.2.0.1 update

Hello,
we have updated our N73 with the 4.0726.2.0.1 software update.
Since then, what happens is that reststarting the phone the music player automatically starts, although it is not a music edition.
Furthermore, it does not connect with our bluetooth gps device, which did work before the software update with Nokia maps perfectly.
Can you help?
Product code: 0529799
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards,
Dora

I also had the same problem when upgrading to the newest firmware:
Firmware: V 4.0726.2.0.1 26-06-2007 RM-133 Nokia N73 (77.01)
Type: GPS
Vendor: Dell
Model: BT-309
BT version: 1.2 (I think...)
Status: NOT working
Tested with: TOMTOM Navigator 6.010 with gps driver 1.20
When trying to use the Dell BT-309 GPS it keeps trying to get a signal without any success. It finds the GPS, asks for the code, tries to pair off and then loses the signal back and forth forever.
The GPS worked fine with my Nokia 6620 so I know it's got to be something that they jinxed in the new firmware. I can now use my BT stereo headset but lost my GPS ability, which frankly costs much more than the headset and is far more useful to me

Mid 2006 iMac Boot Problem (Since latest firmware update)

I have a Mid 2006 17" iMac. Ever since the latest firmware update in early December, about every other startup I've been having boot problems. After the white screen with the Apple Logo and the spinning wheel it goes to a blue screen like normal, but instead of the 'Loading Mac OS X' white window popping up it stays blue and the spinning loading wheel starts. I've left it loading for quite a while before and nothing changes. I have to do a force shut off by holding the power button. and then I start it up and it will boot normally.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Actually, I think it'san early 2006.

I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID. Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand. Can I fix this problem?

I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID. Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand.
Is it possible to differentiate between all the devices?Can I fix this problem?

I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

IPHONE PROBLEM WITH LATEST FIRMWARE

I just updated my iphone to the latest firmware and i now i cant synch my iphone with my computer.. every time i do it, it shuts my computer down.
i'm running window vista
any suggestion or help

Oh, that's great news. Well, I'm not messing with my USB Periphs...they are/were all working fine, so I'm going to wait for Apple to come up with a fix for this problem.
I'm now on my 3rd uninstall/reinstall of the Mobile Support and iTunes.
After this, that's it. I'll have to wait until someone finds an easier fix. For all of you who got 2.1, enjoy. My phone crashes about 3 times a day and I'd really like it, too.

I have the latest firmware... still having problems waking from sleep

First off, I want to say that I have the latest firmware updates and have had them for a few months: SMC version 1.4f12 and Boot ROM version MB11.0061.B03.
The problem I have most often when trying to wake is that the password dialog will come up, I'll enter my password, and then the MacBook will just go back to sleep! Sometimes the screen unlocks for a few seconds and then it goes back to sleep completely (i.e. backlight goes off), and sometimes the password dialog just goes away and I get the spinning beachball on a black screen indefinitely.
Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix? Am I NOT actually running the latest firmware?

Try resetting the SMC (I would also repair permissions before and after - in disk utility)

Latest firmware update and startup problems

Hi I have been reading all about this so-called firmware and its importance in keeping updated on my new macbook pro. Therefore I have been diligently trying to keep it updated over my dial-up connection. I installed the latest firmware as my automatic update suggested. Now I get the spinning startup circle of death. Tried booting in safe mode to no avail. Help? (I also have version cue installed.)

Hi jbell,
Firmware updates are not availible in Software Update, only sofware updates are. Did you Repair Permissions prior to and after updating software? You always should. Go to Applications-Utilities-Disk Utility, and highlight Mac OS X in the left hand column, then Repair Permissions below. Firmware updates are available here....

Where is my n73 new firmware update

i heard that new firmware for n73 was released from nokia (V4.0723.2.0.1/06.06.07)and i tried to update my n73 firmware, but my NSU keep telling me that i already install latest firmware and i check on my phone, but that too disappointed that my n73 still not up to date (V3.0704.1.0.1). I want my n73 firmware to be update. It's not fair to users like me.
I hope nokia will overcome this problem.. I want my n73 firmware to be update.

Hi rouin - Although Nokia has released an updated firmware for the N73, it will only be for a certain product codes (you can find your product code under your battery compartment).
If you received your phone as part of a contract then your phone will be tied in to that network operator - e.g. Vodafone, Orange and so on. If this is the case then you will have to wait until they authorise the release of the firmware for the N73 - there's no way around this unfortunately.

Offline mode problem nokia N73

Hello, I have a problem with my Nokia N73, after having passed in Offline mode, it is impossible to change it. I carried out a hard reset by *#7370#, the phone posts general mode, but when i wants to connect to the network it posts phone in Offilne mode. I have try an firmware update using PC suite, but thephone must be in general mode before this operation can be carried out. what can i proceed. right now it is impossible to use my phone.

I am now on my 7th N73!
Yes, I am probably mad still giving this phone a go, but I Like the phone, so I keep giving it another go! (plus the fact that I cant find any other phone on the market right now that I really like)
My network operator has been great, and has always replaced it for me every time I have had problems, but I must say it is now getting a bit too much.
The last one I had, I got 2 weeks ago, and was a brand new one with the latest s/w update.
First time I put it into OFFLINE mode, it refused to change back to normal. (this was a new problem I did not have with the first 5 handsets so I have a feeling its a problem with the latest s/w)
a week ago I had it replaced once again with a brand new one.
Went away, and put it into OFFLINE mode again while on the plane, and guess what? it refused to change again.
Nothing helps; I have tried taking the battery out, taking the sim card in and out, nothing!!!!
Now they want to give me an N93, but it seems way to large to me, plus it probably has the same problem, using the same operation system.
How the hell could they release a phone with so many problems?Message Edited by robf on 23-Dec-2006
