Having problem with my nokia 5230

Hi, i have purchased nokia 5230 one month before. After one week i have notied that my phone network has some trouble in automatically accessing the network. I am using airtel network and then i contacted the shop and they said it may be sim problem so they said to take duplicate of the sim. After taking the duplicate sim then also the problem existed. Again i contacted them. This they said to update the software, so i gone to nokia care and updated the software and they said the problem will be solved. Then after a day when ichecked again the problem exists. So again i contacted the nokia care this time they took the phone and said they send the phone to nokia for company service and said to come back after 15 days. Yesterday they called me the phone is ok and ready to collect. So got the phone and when i checked again this problem exists. This time i tried using another network Aircel and it shows no problem. Now it clear it has some problem with airtel network. Please can any one help me to sort this problem. I am using software v20.0.005.

Is your 5230 set to dual mode (GSM + UMTS) in the network settings? Switch to GSM only and observe the difference.

Strange problem with my nokia 5230

Recently i sent my phone of for repair and when i got it back i have this strange problem, the screen goes big when i go on the internet, now before there used to be a full screen icon and if i clicked that the screen would go back to normal size, now this icon seems to be missing from my phone does anyone know how i can get it back? I have to press the silly arrow at the bottom of the screen all the time if i want to go back a page and it has become very annoying!
Hope someone can help me thanks in advance

No. You can not downgrade the firmware...
New firmwares have so many advantages.. If the behaviour you have mentioned is not like the earlier version.. once you get used to it you may in fact like it..

Problem with Installing Nokia Ovi Store in E51

I am having problem with installing nokia Ovi store in my E51. Whenever I try to download Ovi store from my E51, it shows a error message that the component is built in and cannot be installed. I dont know wat to do now. Can anyone please give me some advice. Thanks in advance.

Hi there!
This means that the Ovi Store is currently installed in your E52 phone, what I can suggest is try checking under Application Manager > Installed Application, check if the Ovi Store is there. If you can't see it, try to perform the soft reset (press *#7780# on the main screen of the phone and it will prompt you restore all original phone settings? phone will restart. Press YES and it will ask you for the lock code 12345.) If anything else please reply to this message.
Hope tis' Help!

Come on Nokia please help me out

If an update failed, but you can still access the phone, do a reset. Dial *#7370# followed by 12345 if required, the phone will set to out of the box, but you'll have to set it up again manually and reinstall your apps. Before doing this, connect to Nokia Suite and update to the latest available software, then set up, you should then find everything works fine.
Good Luck

Weird problem with my Nokia E50

Hi guys!
I don't know whether this topic has been discussed before but I have a very weird problem with my Nokia E50. The problem is as follows: whenever I receive an sms message my phone remains silent (no vibration or sound) even though vibration is turned on and the sms sound is chosen, the phone is at full volume too
I've tried changing the profiles from General to Outdoor but the only sound I get is from keypresses
I don't know what went wrong. I'm totally stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated

hi
I didn't update the firmware yet, and rebooting the phone didn't help.

Music problems with my new 5230!

I wondered if you wonderful guys could help me out with a couple of problems concerning my new Nokia 5230. I just received my 16gb sd card today and started transferring music files so I could listen to music on the move. Unfortunately I have came across a couple problems when previewing my music on headphones.
1. When playing mp3's from the start there are 2 quiet electronic clicks, sometimes even 3. The last click actually cuts the music out right at the start which is very annoying (music lover). Can someone tell me why this is? Being a sound engineer and a computer whiz I personally think the first quiet click(s) is due to the sound/music program activating and the final click has something to do with bitrate..So I did a series of tests concerning the bitrate and no matter what combination used..it still unfortunately clicked on all 2/3 accounts described. Infact the only bitrate that didn't have the final click with the audio cut were mp3's using 128kps so I'm thinking any bitrate above 128kps as my tests prove will cause problems!
2. I tried using the eq presets while on headphone mode and all the presets don't seem to change!!
3. Most of my mp3's in my collection has cover art and it seems that the nokia music player does not display them while playing(just has the disc with pink music note displayed all times)
Can anyone help us out here as if this isn't resolved then I won't be using this phone as a music device because that 3rd click is very annoying indeed and if it means I have to convert my entire mp3 collection to 128kps then I simply don't see the point in doing so!
Apart from that the nokia 5230 is a wonderful little phone!
Kind Regards, Mark

1. I am using a 5800 so I cant really comment. Xpressmusic range has been replaced by the X-series, so basically X-series is the new expressmusic with more emphasis on music.
2.
3. It would depend on whether your cover art is embedded into the file or not. Some cover art placing apps simply link the image to the mp3 file, so when you play it on your PC, the cover art shows. This is the case with iTunes (you have to edit settings for embedding). This is not the case with say, Ovi Suite, which embeds the album art into the mp3 file, so the file gets a little bigger because of the embedded picture. The phone will be able to play with album arts if the picture is embedded into the mp3 file. I personally use mp3tag to put tags and album art onto my files, but you can also use Ovi Suite which came with your phone.

Problem with restoring Nokia N8

Yesterday I backed up my messages, pictures and videos because I had a problem with Nokia Maps. I did a Hard Reset and returned to install and configure everything. When I restore my files from the backup are restored only photos and videos but not the messages. I need to restore the messages too.What happens?
Thanks for your time.

Having Anna I have Reset the phone (*#7370#), reinstalled Anna updates - everything went nicely. After this I restored from a previously saved Backup the Contacts, Documents, etc. - all without Applications and settings, but also Messages.
Unfortunately Messages has not been restored by Nokia Suite (ver.3.2.100)!!! - Not a single message.
I tryied with PC Suite (ver.7.1.62.1) - most of the messages coud be restored, some unfortunately not (here I used the same backup file done by Nokia Suite, I do not have another as I have not backuped with PC Suite).
With NBU Explorer I see all the messages in the Nokia Suite backup file as saved correctly. So I can export all messages with their corresponding folders to PC, with files extensions of *.VMG.
I could restore the messages by:
- Exporting them with NBU Explorer with their corresponding folders to PC, with files extensions of *.VMG.
- Having prepared the folders in My N8 Message box I imported them folder after folder into PC Suite (PC Suite - Messages - Import into an empty PC Suite message folder) - this means they are already on the N8 (PC Suite synchs to N8), just in an wrong folder (PC Suite does not correctly synch with N8)
- folder after folder I move the messages from the saved folder (uncorresct folder) to the corresponding folder.
So I managed!
BUT!
- Apparantly Nokia Suite does NOT do its job in restoring the backuped Messages
(appart from not being able to synchronise correctly as PC Suite with Outlook - Contacts and Calendar);

Problems with ICQ Nokia Lumia 720

There's a problem with ICQ on Nokia Lumia 720. The fact is that being minimized (not closed) it loses connection, after maximizing it, you have to launch the program again. Who faced this problem, did ya find any decision?

Ask the developer of the app. It is not part of the OS nor is it a Nokia developed app.

Problem with 6120c Nokia Modem detection via Bluet...

Hi!
There is a problem with Nokia 6120c bluetooth modem detection under Windows XP PS3. I used this phone as bluetooth modem for about a month without any problems (under Windows XP SP2). Than I’ve installed Service Pack 3 for my Win XP. About a week everything works great. A few days ago I’ve unplugged my USB Bluetooth 2.0 adapter and placed it to other USB port (on the same computer). After this operation my computer doesn’t find 6120c as a modem via bluetooth IN ANY USB PORT (Nokia Modem via Bluetooth shows as disconnected in the control panel). In the same time, Nokia file manager works normal through bluetooth connection. 6120c modem now works only via USB connection. I wonder, is this problem connected with SP3 or it is a Nokia 6120c firmware problem? I will be very grateful for your ideas concerning this problem.
Sincerely, Andrey

Described above problem was fixed by OS reinstall. Bluetooth modem works fine for now (WinXP SP3).

Start-up problem with my Nokia 6630 series

Hi everyone! I'm new in the community. Please could anyone help with a problem I have with my 6630. I had just finished charging it and when put it on and tried to access an sms that came in the inbox was not accessible! Then I switched the phone off and later put it on only to get a shocker message which read -" phone start-up failed. Contact the retailer". I contacted the retailer who suggested I that the phone should be switched off again and later switched on. I have done this for the umpteenth time without success! Any one with an idea on how to solve this problem please. I will appreciate your urgent help. Thank you all.

Dear friend, the start-up problem I had with my nokia 6630 has been solved! I switched off the phone, removed the memory card and powered on. The phone to my surprise came alive. I switched it off again and reinserted the memory card before switching on again and lo and behold, my 6630 was up and kicking again! if anyone should have a similar problem, he of she should try what I did, i hope it works for others in similar situation.
Cheers.

Connection problem with my nokia 6230i

I try to connect my nokia with a nokia cable to my computer. I already did this on my mobile without any problem. When I try to do the same on my desktop I receive the following message :
there was a problem during the installation of your material nokia 6230i
this name is already in use as a service name or service name for display.
What can I do? Thanks for your help

My guess is you need to reinstall your drivers.
This is a pain, but not too complicated.
- first, un-install everything Nokia-related from the PC via Contol Panel - be sure you include the Cable drivers!
- restart the computer (yes, really)
- install PC Suite as normal*
- restart the computer
* NB: it is VERY important that after you're prompted to plug in the phone during the PC Suite installation, you WAIT until ALL of the drivers are installed.
This will take AT LEAST 2 or 3 minutes, probably longer.
If you interrupt this process, you will get your connection problems again.Message Edited by patc on 14-Nov-200702:23 PM

Problems with my nokia 5800 XM

I have a big problem.... I can't install or uninstall anything on my 5800 . I have custom firmware 40.0.005. When I try to install or uninstall something it's says: Unable to start operation. Installer already in use.....Also A few days ago I had a problem with OVI store and I installed it but the shortcut is steel in the Application menu. ( if try to enter in ovi store it says that I have to update the application and if I try, I get an error). Is this a virus or a software problem? What should I do?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

yes it's safe and official too
Backup you device using Ovi Suite or Nokia PC Suite.
Dial *#7370# in to your device. Confirm that you wish to reset the device.
Enter the passcode (by default 12345).
The device will now be reset and the Maps application will have reverted to the original version. You can now reload your backed up data using Ovi Suite or Nokia Suite.
the last option is hard reset which is the combination of Green + Red + Camera + Power buttons while the phone is switched off till you see the Nokia Logo
