Missing address search option on Nokia 5800

Hi,
Just bought a 1 day licence to see how this app works. I was expecting some features to appear - they didn't.
I read the help and it says to go Options->Address Search but that option is not there. I have never been able to find an option to locate an address.
The maps software is at version 3.01 and the phone's firmare is 2. something - I ran the software updater and there's nothing more recent available to me.
Perhaps I can re-install it? If I remove it, where would I get another copy?
Thanks.
Peter.

Regarding "I read the help and it says to go Options->Address Search but that option is not there"
Your manual is outdated.
At the bottom of the screen (within Maps | Maps view) you should see a magnifying glass button. Just press and there is your search option.

[HELP] I lost the quick search button on my 5800 h...

I tried to install a game into my phone and it make my phone not responding so long. I tried to turn off by pressing the power button but it wasn't respond. Then I take out the battery, put it in turn on my phone again. I found that the quick search button below the shortcut on my home screen has disapeared. I tried to restart the phone but the problem still there. When I go to setting->personal->home screen->home screen to check and it only show 4 line: Shortcuts, music player, radio, calendar. The quick search has completely disapeared. How to solve this? Thanks

That's the reason that i say to be carefull when you are going to install any application/game.Try to restore your phone's original settings.
Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone mgmt.> Factory Settings > Yes > Enter the security/lock code and OK.(the Nokia's default security/lock code is 12345)
Uninstall this application/game before do this!

Nokia search on 5800

i loved the nokia search program on previous S60 series phones it was great for hunting down content and for looking for text messages from say one contact but i see that now the nokia search bundled with the 5800 only allows you to search using google yahoo and another one i forget. so is nokia search only for searching the internet for? or do i need to update the search version
i hope i just needs updating otherwise that was daft taking away such a handy function
Solved!

Nokia 5800 contacts search problem after phone swi...

Recently bought a new 5800. Used Phone Switch to retrieve contacts from older Nokia, seemed to work ok.
The problem is that ALL NEW contacts added to 5800 memory appear BELOW the contacts list (not sorted) AND cannot be found via contact search. This is very annoying. How can this be fixed?
Thanks.

It sometimes does this.
Unlock the phone, go into the messaging and come back out again.
The "new message" notification should stop now.

Search Hangs with V30 of Nokia 5800

Hi,
Just upgraded to V30. Whenever I am entering data for search and clicking on Google, my phone hangs. Earlier when I was using version 20, I had no such issues.
Do you have any remedy?

Why can u just leave a webpage open with google on it?
Its just the same really, i think the homescreen search thing is a bit of waste of time, u sort of get trapped in the search, i thinks its much easier leaving a google webpage open.

5800 Search Problem

When in my Home Screen (short cuts):
When I try to use the Search Utility to find an item on my phone, the search briefly opens but does not allow me to type anything in the entry field, and then quickly closes back to the Home Screen? This happened out of the clear blue. How can I fix?

i have the same problem and did it. my SIM card was reformatted too.
i am now overseas and nv bring my laptop along
so i guess have to wait till i go back then I can transfer the back up back to my SIM card....
P'S : after reading back, then i realise i nv read properly. but anyhow, i have to reboot my hp. if not, i not only can't search, i also can't use my message function. and I be outstation for another 6 days and I can't just simply receive SMS and don't read them....

5800 XM Contacts Search

Hi! I've upgraded to v50.0.005 and now when searching through contacts by typing only the first letter of a name, it returns all the contacts which name begins with that letter. In the previous version 31.0.101, typing a letter returned the filtered list of contacts together with a keypad showing the available next letters to filter more the list.
Does anyone know if this facility is available in the new version? If it is, how can it be turned on? I could not find any settings related to it.
Solved!

That still works on my v50 phone. Go to Menu>Settings>Phone>Touch Input>Adaptive Search>should be set to on.

How do I use my iPhone 4s to set GPS co-ordinates to use at a later date?

I'm wanting to go to an aread in the bush - enter the GPS co-ordinates in my iPhone 4s and then be able to go back to the same place at a later date. How do I go about it. I have no idea if I even have a GPS on my iPhone 4s.

There is a built in GPS and map function that provides basic navigation using Google Maps. It's hard to miss right there on the home screen. However, it is maunal; you have to tap "next" when you reach each waypoint, and it does not provide spoken directions. It also downloads maps in real time, so it can be slow if you have a slow data connection, and it uses a lot of data if you are on a limited data plan. It is excellent for walking and public transportation, less useful in a vehicle unless you have a navigator sitting in the car.
There are several commercial GPS apps that you can buy from the App Store, but no free ones. Just search the App Store for "GPS".

5800 XM lifestory - get your popcorn ready people

Hello everyone. This is my first post here as I don't know where else to put it. It is quite long as it will go through alot of problems I have occured and I dont know what to do so please help. It may give you soloutions to some of your problems too.
I recently got a Nokia 5800 XM with a 1 year music store download subscription card. I got this in August 2009. I started off using the phone as a rookie to Nokia s60 5th edition phones. All I could say was that I was greatly, very greatly, satisfied with the product. It exceeded all expectations and work flawlessly. Until the day when the phone did NOT recognise the 8gb memory card within and the photos in the gallery had their thumbnails missing (even though the photos were listed!). It was strange, this never happened before.
This happened a few months later from the day i got it. I turned the phone off, took out the battery, put the memory card in, put battery back in and turned it on. The splashscreen with NOKIA in blue came up (as the phone vibrates and then starts). After that these things happened (to keep it short):
A1) The first time i did this it asked for a lock code (i set it). I put it in and everything is OK.
A2) Next day I turned my phone on, entered code, went onto home screen and stayed STUCK on it. I tried pressing the menu button but it would take about 2 minutes to get to the menu 2 5 minutes to load any sort of application!
A3) Same day: I tried accessing the memory card from Windows XP computer (SP3). The computer froze and crashed.
A4) Same day: I tried accessing memory card from PC suite by choosing PC Suite mode from the phone. This worked for a day and then this too would crash and cause the computer to end the program.
A5) Same day: I tried accessing memory card by putting the phone into Mass Storage mode. This worked completely and I was able to back up some files (pics, songs, vids etc).
A6) Next day: As a test I tried accessing the memory card from a different computer. I got the same results as in (2), (3) and (4). This test made me conclude that the memory card was corrupted (which was pretty strange as I never did take it out of the phone ever since I got it!).
A7) The day after that I turned the phone on and guess what? It took about 20 minutes to get to the lock code and the touch screen was not responding to me pressing the numbers.
I made the decision to format the memory card by using my computer (windows XP). I could access it through Mass Storage mode so it made things alot easier. I formatted the memory card WITHOUT uninstalling ANY of the applications that were originally installed to the memory card. This, of course, was a bad move but I was desperate as I needed the phone to work. If you ever do install lots of applications onto a memory card (install them one by one) you will notice that even the phone memory gets used up very slightly. What happened was that I had half a program on the phone (including all of my music Licenses, phone locks and registry for alot of programs and themes).
SO after the format I put the card back into the phone. It recognised it and showed the message that said something like, "Readying memory card". This took a few minutes but after that it went. I then immediately updated my phone to the latest firmware (which was v21 at that time) and put my backed up files onto it again. That fixed a whole load of errors from before.
A few months later a few of the thumbails for my pictures went missing again. The day this happened the phone became slow and unresponsive too. I decided to update the phone's applications and firmware again. This, again, fixed the problem but not for long.
In November 2009 my phone was slowly 'failing':
B1) It would randomly switch off even during a use of any application and even when I was making a call.
B2) NEW: every time my phone was left on its own for about 5 minutes the screen would only display lines of colour, not text or anything related to the GUI of the phone. Just lines. I noticed that the phone was stone-cold at that point. So a little heat (rubbing it in hands or leaving it in my warm pockets) would solve it and it did.
B3) Making phone calls would take AGES! It took about 5 minutes for the sound that shows a connection to the other phone would come up!
B4) No dial tones - sometimes when I dialled a number there would be no 'beep-beep' of the integers being put in (regardless if I was in Silent profile or General with the volume put at maximum)
B5) Internet fail - the phone would not connect to any sort of connection wether it be mobile internet to any Wifi spot.
B6) Transparent images - web graphics and transparent images that should normally blend in witht the background had, for some reason, a grey filling. This never happened before and I took note of it.
B7) Facebook malfunction - when the new 'touchscreen site' for facebook came out, I was enthralled to see a site that uses the functions of the phone only (just touchscreen). However it worked fine for a few weeks but after that if I clicked on a name of one of my friends it would 'glitch' Basically the same page would load (before I clicked on someone) and the header of the page (that said 'Facebook' with the tabs 'home', 'profile', 'friends' and 'inbox' in a blue background) would all be DUPLICATED to the bottom of the page. This would happen again and again and they would act like separate 'processes' or 'pages' in one page only.
B8) Facebook transparent glitch - the new touch site has a notifications area on the top-left of the screen. Normally it would show an image of a whiteboard with lines on it if there were no notifications. If there are it would show up as a red square with a number in it showing how many. This happens but the number has white 'cut outs' like scissors cut around it harshly leaving jaggy edges and pixels and NO transparency.
B9) Connection to WLAN lost - this happened between 20 seconds and 30 minutes of connecting to ANY wifi spot.
I checked for firmware updates and updated to v31 or v38 (one of those two). This fixed problems (3), (6) and (8) for another few months. After that I was happy with the phone even though it still had all the other problems.
January 2010. A new year, a new hope and, of course, new dilemmas
Phone was fine until the memory card got corrupted. How did that happen? I took a picture of my new barbecue machine and when it says 'processing image' underneath the battery DIED and the phone shut off. *sigh* I charged the phone and went to that picture that I took (when the battery died) and it had no thumbnail. This was expected. I opened it and it said 'corrupt file'. After that I deleted it but it couldnt delete it! I tried deleting it through 'File mgr.' and 'X-Plore'. Didn't work. Tried it through windows through USB mass storage. Computer crashed. Took MMC out of computer. Computer magically fixed! Corrupt memory card. I didnt try it on another computer but I was sure the card had 'gone bad'. So this time I first backed up the stuff I wanted from there, uninstalled everything from the phone (except for some themes which I forgot) and then formatted the card.
After the format I realised I missed the sisx themes to uninstall. They had not gone from the themes list but It showed that they were installed to the phone memory - something that I had NOT done before the format. I installed everything to the memory card.
I slowly worked out (over the weeks) that everytime I installed something to the memory card there would be some sort of 'remnants' left behind after a format. I got this because after the 2 formats I got another problem and a solution:
C1) Music player custom Equalisers - all had been deleted after the format and there were none in the list. However when I went to make a new setting and pressed 'OK' after choosing a name for it and setting the levels it would sound as if all the levels were back to 0. I rechecked and found that the name was saved as Preset 1 and NOT what I chose it to be (I named it 'My Own') and the levels were, in fact, back to 0. What I worked out was that if I wanted them back then I would just leave the name how it came up (Preset 1, Preset 2) and leave the equaliser levels on 0. Guess what it would be saved as?? The first one in the list before the format! It was called 'Pop my way' and the equaliser levels were exactly the same as before the format. I did the same thing 5 more times and I recovered all of my old custom equaliser levels and settings.
C2) This is EXACTLY the same for the notes application. I had a full list of notes before the format and a blank list after the format. I just entered a blank note and they came up magically as my old ones with all the info' saved on them!
February 2010 - I made a habit of checking for updates every week. The last update was on 29th December 2009 (software version 40.0.005 custom version 40.0.005.C03.01). Ever since then there had been no software updates. Just application updates. I updated my Nimbuzz application and there was something called Scribble Powered by Python. It was a drawing tool (4 MB?!?!) and turned your phone into a mini version of MS Paint. Rubbish! Didn't need that. Didn't install it. Got errors installed it and error gone.
March 2010 - Unexpected breakdown of phone. Same problems as (A7, B2, B7, B8. B9) and a few new ones:
D1) I went onto the Download! app. It wanted update. I gave it update. It changed to Ovi store. Looked nice, a bit sluggish and hard on the RAM but it was fine. I downloaded lots of stuff from there, it was a great app! UNTIL the dreaded update of version 1.05(611) which installed halfway and then somehow, unexpectedly, the progress bar would stop and then it would say 'update error' and close, leaving me blinking foolishly at the screen. I tried again and again and again. Same update, same error. Now there is a new one out and I cant update to that either because it says 'Update error'
D2) Nokia Music Store application for my phone now cannot even get to the main screen from where i can search or choose tracks from. The only place I can get to is the store selector from which you choose what country you are from. If I click on UK (where I live) it displays an error message saying, "Music Store: Unable to perform operation". I had this error before on the web browser but it soon went later on. No matter how many times I click on it the same message will keep on coming and coming. I even tried the Music store from my PC which leads to the next problem.
D4) Nokia music store for windows XP. Now updated to Nokia Ovi Player cannot and will not recognise, connect and sync the music from my phone in any of the USB modes the phone is on (PC Suite, Media Transfer, Mass Storage, Image transfer << NONE OF THOSE) this is something completely new and did NOT happen before the formatting of the memory card! The phone isnt even recognised in Music Store/Ovi Player and asks for a phone to be connected whereas PC Suite/Ovi Suite recognises it and fully works. I even tried pressing the 'Sync' button in Ovi Suite on the music page and it says something like 'Could not transfer'.
D5) The ovi store application will NOT update from Ovi Suite. The error message given says: "Internal error - could not update ovi store".
<<<<<<<<<<ALMOST FINISHED PEOPLE, JUST 2 MORE THINGS>>>>>>>>>>
After all this rubbish I decided to do a full master phone reset to the phone memory only. I took out the memory card and did a hard reset. Everything back to normal. Updated everything on the phone. Put memory card back in..... 'readying memory card'... the smart thing was that it scanned the memory card and automatically installed ANY sisx, sis, JAR files automatically and put all the media files into the library automatically. Hence the name smartphone. I, on the other hand, didnt wait for it to finish as it was taking a good hour to do so and I tried cancelling it, tried to turn the phone off, took the card out and then put it back in (which worked but restarted the 'card-readying process') so i took the battery out as the phone went stuck on the readying bit, put it back in and turned it on. The apps were installed but only some of them were and the had their icons missing. This was expected as I had force-stopped the installation processes. I manually installed everything and all was back to normal.
And now, I am here writing to you people to help me out because I have almost all the problems listed back into operation and I dont know what to do. I am not giving up yet - it took me a year of torture to get to this stage and I think I might win this battle
So... any ideas for salvation?? lol

That was something to read! - I don't know any exact solution to your problems.
It might be your phones hardware, might be a false fw install, might be a corrupted memorycard or even a faulty memorycard making problems again and againg. And you might wanna take it to a Nokia care point for an inspection.
But what I would check out is those themes and apps youre mention.
I have both n97 and 5800 with no such problems, but I once had similar issues with my n95 8gb after installing a couple of "homemade" themes from different websites, zedge.com amongst others.
I use nimbuzz on both of my phones, but have no trouble with it, but there could be other problems.
Try also not to force stop any installation as things can get corrupted even though it seems ok in the first place.

Nokia 5800 XM - Gallery hangs when trying to open ...

Hello All,
I searched all over the internet to see if any other 5800 owner has similar issue but i guess not. When I try to open any image (which is on phone memory) with memory card inserted the gallery hangs, Even trying to open an image or movie clip stored in memory card behaves same. I can open the same files using file manager under application.
I noticed this issue the next day after i purchased my handset and went to nokia customer care and they replaced the MM card( well it took almost month for them) now this is the replaced card. It worked for some hours i was able to view images using gallery and now all of a sudden it has stopped responding. Has this got to do with any application which is installed on memory card?
I am going to try to format my MM card and try putting single pic on phone and then on memory card and try. Any one please has any other suggestion?
I have many song videos on my MMC. i have uninstalled all the applications whihc were there on my memory card like marle maze and some others which i had installed.
Once i connect to OVI PC Suite i am unable to select remove storage device as it always shows in use so i always used to switch mode to mass storage from PC suite and then remove storage device and disconnect it. Is this correct method?
My laptop os is vista
thanks
Kiran

well, i got the solution.
1). remove the memory card from ur cell.
2). On the cell without memory card.(you will see no trouble wid Gallery now.)
3). Now OFF ur cell and put the memory card in the cell.
4). Now Format the memory card by phone memory card menu.
5). Restart your Cell, copy the contents to memory card, whatever the size of contents are.....
6). And finally, go to Gallery and enjoy the features of Boombastic 5800..
Cheers....

Nokia 5800 Questions.

I posted this in the nokia 5800 problems topic but it actually wasn't a problem and also it got ignored. So I decided to post it in a new topic.
I just bought this phone 4 days ago and I am in total love with it Now the pros of this phone are too much to list but there are a few cons which slight bugged me.I have version11.0.008 from the begining and have not faced a single problem - no lag , no peculiar behaviour Now I have a few queries that I was hoping to get answered on.
1. Is it possible to add more stuff below the Search word in the Shortcut bar theme. Maybe a Calendar memo reminder or anything. I already know of the music now playing bar that comes there during tracks but other than that are there nothing else to be done?
2. Is there any way to use the 2nd camera?
3. In the silent mode , for some odd reason I might have missed a call ( i.e did not feel the vibration ) Now is there a option to turn on so that the phone will emit little vibrations after a period of time to remind me or notify me of a miss call? I have this on my razrv3i so missing it now The menu button just flickrs on off to notify of the missed call but is there no way to know I have a miss call without taking out the phone from the case and looking at it?
4. I heard theres a new update to v11.0.009 - But my NSU doesn't show it . I was wondering is it that necessary to update to this firmwire at this moment? I live in Bangladesh.
Thats about it The 5800 is a exta ordinary phone and I have not regretted my purchase yet and have no hope of doing so. It costed me around 272.74 Euros. The price to quality ratio is mind bogling

1. The Calender memo will show by itself if you have any entry made in the Calender.. It will come up as "Next Entry on ..." a few days in advance and the Actual details a day before...
2. Open Camera application.. Goto Options -- > Use secondary camera..
3. There are 3rd party applications like T-Reminder for this.. It has options of Sound/Light/Vibration reminders for missed calls / SMSs / other events at user defined interval...
4. Firmware versions are different for different regions.. Connect the phone thru' OVI Suit to a computer and check for the latest available for your phone.It says that version upgrade is for good but there are newer complains associated with them. So its up to you whether to take that risk or not.. If you are satisfied with the current version so be it..

Xpressmusic 5800 will no longer connect to the int...

I have an xpressmusic 5800 and have been using wireless through my home router (and others access points) with no problems for months.
I cleared my page history a few days ago and since then (not sure if it related or not) I have been unable to connect to the internet either through my home router, a friends router or O2 active.
The phone crashed several times, shutting down and empyting the battery in the process, and after searching support forums I moved some files around to increase my phones memory space to 65MB. This appears to have stopped the crashing but I am still unable to connect.
When I click on the internet symbol the screen goes black for up to 1 minute, then the connecting bar appears but nothing else happens, if left it just stays on that screen.
I have my home router set as priority 1 in the connectivity > destinations list.
Mode = Infrastructure
Security = WPA/WPA2
Coverage = 1 access point
Speed = 54 Mbit/s
Hope that someone can help me!
Thanks
Ellie

How to Restore Backup *.arc files on nokia 5800?

I have backed up my 5800 data to my memory card E:Backup and there are below files in Backup
Bookmark.arc
Calendar.arc
Contacts.arc
Messages.arc
Settings.arc
UserFiles.arc
but how to restore the backup to my mobile?
or atleast how do i view the content of the important file like contacts.arc? ( unless with nokisoft)
or Can any one help me to convert the Contact.arc to Contact.txt or cvs or xls?

After a deeper search on the same forums found the solution.
Go to Menu-->Applications --> File Manager
Click on Backup.
Then Options->Restore
Select everything! (again you have the time and date of the backup)
Then click "OK"
That's it.
Note : Before you start this process..take the backup of Backup hidden folder present in SD card on to your PC.
