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.

Issues with updating my NOKIA 5800 XM

Hi all,
I don't know, whether this topic has been already covered, but I haven't found anything suitable for me. Here's the problem. I have a NOKIA 5800 XM and I want to update its' firmware to v30.0.011. However the standard procedure to update it using my phone did not succeed - while checking for the new update, an error appears, saying "Connection error" (i am using OMNITEL Lithuania). However, the last time I was updating my Nokia, everything was ok doing it this way. The other point is, I have a MAC, and when i tried to update using Nokia Software update using my friend's PC, i did not succeed - there were errors as well. So, can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance

I have a similar problem. My 5800's clock is very slow. It falls behind by maybe up to 3 hours per day. I have to continually correct the time all day. Today I was correcting the time when the phone gave me an error message and I lost all of my videos and photos. Luckily my contacts and messages were not lost. I was hoping a Firmware update would solve the bugs with this very frustrating phone. No luck. I installed the Nokia PC Suite and the Updater doesn't work. I always get an error message and whatever Internet Explorer wants to open fails. I then loaded Nokia Software Updater and continually get a disconnection error message. I've been trying all afternoon. This website is very slow and frustrating as well. After having been a Nokia user for many, many, many years. I can't help but be unbelievably disappointed with my new phone. If anyone can help with the Firmware Update issue. It would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Sth crazy with V31 of nokia 5800! EMERGENCY!!!

A few minutes ago I connected my Nokia 5800XM to my PC to update the frameware from 21 to 31.
When I opened nokia software updater, it noticed me that the ver. of nokia software updater is low, so I updated my nokia software updater.
After that I started to update my 5800XM. The update was 130.8mb.
When the update became complete a crazy error appeared. It says "USB connection is not true!"
But why? My USB connection is original.
A little bit later I desided to test the updating prossess with my laptop. It showed me the same problem.
By the way when I start to update my phone, the desplay screen didn't become blank!!!
Please answer my problem as soon as posible because I need it so much!!! I love the new Ver. pictures!
Solved!

My gf's unbranded bought-direct-from-nokia handset is stuck on v21, still.. Was v30 any better? Her phone freezes about once ever two days.. often during calls (the on-screen call timer displays a few minutes then the whole phone stops although the call continues?!
She relies on it for business stuff too so it cutting off and rebooting during a call is not really acceptable..
If v30 is better than v31, I might try more drastic action to get that version installed as frankly at the moment Nokia seem to have forgotten about this unbranded handset and it isn't really usable any more..
(I would try resetting the device, but Ovi and PC-Suite won't back it up.. "internal error".. helpful)

Problem with GPS on Nokia 5800

Some days back i had big problem in getting GPS work to get my current location. I followed some intsturctions provided by one of the forum members and it seems to have worked.
Now the problem is, even when i am in the open area where satellite status shows more than 5 available, i am unable to get a lock on my current position. Instead i get "GPS works poorly on indoors..." message. My mobile is still under warranty. Should i need to go and check with Nokia Care center? or is this could a confiugration problem?
i have Assisted, Network and integrated enabled and have GPRS enabled.
Any help would be realy apprecieated
Not to mention, i am on 4x firmware with latest Maps software and also have downloaded India Maps using maps downloader
Cheers

Hi KarthikK
This message sounds as if device can't communicate with the "Positioning server" so I would check that it is "supl.nokia.com" and confirm in Destinations > Internet that your desired network access point is prioritized.
Latest Nokia Maps v3.04Beta also utilizes an additional positioning method, Wi-fi/Network to speed up positional fix especially indoors as per screenshot:http://i43.tinypic.com/2mrcq68.jpg

Problem with GPS in Nokia 5800

I'm in Nokia Maps, I click in "my position" and it shows me the red dot in south of Portugal (Algarve). Well, that would be cool if I were there, but I'm not! I'm in the north (Braga). I want to connect via sattelite and not via internet, cause I want to use it when I'm driving. Can somebody help me?

Hi gui94
If you won't give the Assisted GPS feature a network internet connection albeit to download 7 kb of data then your first fix is going to take longer to achieve and would suggest you go outside away from tall buildings preferably with clear view of sky.
The position achieved using the Network GPS (cell tower location) can sometimes be well off the mark unfortunately but not usually by that much and then you will get a "Black ring" around the centre when locked on to position at which time you will see next to satellite icon green bars instead of yellow.

Under your battery, there's a product code on a sticker (X: 0586707). Go here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update and type in your productcode to see if there should be an update for your productcode. If there's not, you could take your phone to a Nokia Carepoint and ask if they could do it - no promises. Or else you have to wait untill your productcode gets it.

Songs locked in Nokia 5800

I got my Nokia 5800 on 3rd Jan in India.
I was not able to install any application that is available with "Download" app in phone. It was giving "certificate expired" error.
After reading some forums, for this problem I did soft and hard reset my phone 1 time each.
After that, installation problem got solved.
But now whenever I try to play any song, it asks "song is locked. Unlock now?". When I say "No", the song shows lock icon & cannot be played. If I say "yes", it opens browser window and does nothing.
Please help me. I can play not a single song due to this.
So, whats the use of my xpressMusic?

Hi Jimmy,
Had the same issue with my New Nokia 5800 brought in India yesterday. i.e
1) Initially application install would fail with Expired certificate. Then after searching the forums found about the soft reset of the phone using *#7370# to fix this problem.
2) Doing the reset above fixed the application install problem HOWEVER
3) NOw all the pre-loaded songs are locked up. And even if I select get license for the song, it opens a blank browser window.
4) I tried the factory reset (Rather factory defaults option in settings). It still doesn't fix the problem.
I am really fed up with Nokia because of this
a) My Nokia N95 display conks of first
b) Next I buy 5800 and it doesn't install applications by default
c) On trying the fix mentioned in the forum, all pre loaded contents get locked up
d) The Map application for India still doesn't show the National High way ANY MORE (other than those linking the NINE cities for which detailed map is there). When in REALITY the ORIGINAL MAP SET FOR INDIA with the Original Loaded MAP application in initial N95 showed it perfectly when I brought it. But after the first Map update last year, I lose that functionality, and even now it is still missing.

Nokia 5800 as the multimedia phones makes you able to enjoy watching the video and music with it. The question is, how’s to do to convert that videos and what are the best setting used for. I have convert many videos into my phone, I found that most video files can play with this phone such as mp4, 3gp, rmvb and flv files. But of them plays well but some are not. After many tries, I finally got the best results for Nokia video files. My video in 5800 was full screen, high quality and sounds very well. Here are my settings:
Video Resolution: 480*320

You can apply these settings above in whatever application you used when converting videos into 5800. Then I am sure you will get full screen, high quality and flawless video in your phone.

How to transfer video files into Nokia 5800
I have download some videos from video website such as Youtube, Google video. But I can’t watch these videos in my phone. As these videos were flv files, Nokia 5800 can’t play such videos. I use Internet Tablet Video Converter to convert it, but it shows “Unsupported Video File Type”. Then I got to know some best video converter that seems professional for Nokia phone, I free download its trial version and tried it, and it works very well. Below are what I do:
Click Add button to add video files from your computer, set your videos according to the above settings and select Nokia 5800 Video MPEG-4 format for your video. Then just click convert button to start the conversion. After the conversion complete, you may watch these videos with Nokia 5800.
Also you may get music from video in this way. But pay attention to the format. As Nokia 5800 support mp3 audio format, you should select “MP3 – MPEG Layer-3 Audio (*.mp3)”.
How to convert DVD files into Nokia 5800
Obviously phones don’t have DVD drives, so to watch DVD on a phone you have to convert it into a video file on your PC then drag it into your phone. I also follow the above settings and convert DVD files into MPEG-4 video with Daniusoft DVD Ripper. the results are excellent.
After insert your DVD into the DVD Drive click the Open DVD button to upload DVD files on to this program. Click Settings button to set your videos according to the above settings I listed. Click Profile drop list to select “Nokia 5800 Video MPEG-4 (*.mp4)” format for your Nokia video. Then click Convert button to start the conversion. In few minutes the whole process will completed.
If you select audio format “MP3 – MPEG Layer-3 Audio (*.mp3)” you may also get music from DVD.
To transfer files into Nokia 5800
In the above tutorial I have explain you how to convert Nokia videos from DVD and other video files. Then you need to transfer these videos into your phone.
1. Make sure your computer and phone are both switched on. Also make sure your 5800 have a memory card in its slot.
2. Plug the small end of the microUSB cable into the phone’s USB socket, which s under a plastic flap in the top left corner.
3. Plug the larger end of the microUSB cable into a USB port on your computer.
4. On your 5800 it should ask which mode you wish to use. Choose “Mass Storage”.
5. Open the memory card window (probably called “Removable Disk E:”), drag your video files into the video folder.
6. After finished transfer files, do not disconnect the cable yet. You should make it safe to disconnect the cable. You may do this by click a small icon in the bottom right corner of the screen that appears when the phone is connected.
7. After you have made the device safe to remove, you can unplug the cable at both ends.
Some useful tips to make the Nokia 5800's battery last as long as possible
Sometimes you may have to stop talking with your friend or watching videos with your phone as low power of your battery. It is more inconvenient if you are in travel and have no alternative battery. Here are some tips to make your phone battery last as long as possible when using telephone.
Do not switch the phone off. As switching a phone on uses far more battery power than simply leaving the phone on.
Shut down unnecessary applications.
Turn down the 5800’s screen brightness to the lowest acceptable level.
Switch off your 5800’s screen when not in use.
Use headphones instead of speakers when listening to music or watching movies.
Avoid using the camera flash unnecessarily.
Use 2G instead of 3G.
Switch off Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi.'

Nokia 5800 missing personal files on memory card

Good day everyone!
I have a problem with my new nokia 5800. A month ago, i lost some of my pictures, which are saved in my memory card. I just ignore it thinking that somebody from my frends just deleted it. After a week, all of the videos, which i took, were all missing.. I was so **bleep** of. A while ago, an application that i downloaded from the net was also lost.. Im so frustrated about this.. Please kindly help me on this one.
Your response is highly appreciated. (n_n)

this seems to be a problem of a common virus as the 5800 is generally doing well except for some performance hogs.
@chan chan, there is absolutely no use when you use a PC antivirus to kill a 5800 symbian's virus. there are s60 antivirus out there, but i recommend you do a hard-reset of your phone by holding
"green" + "red" + "camera key"(full press) all simultaenously while powering on the device.do not leave the power key also till u see "NOKIA" on the screen.before doing this, remove the memory card from the phone and format it on the PC.after the phone starts factory-fresh, insert the formatted card.it should work fine now.also update to the latest v31 firmware.
remember to backup your contacts and other phone-memory data as hard reset wipes-clean all data, but do not use the "backup phone" option as it uses memory card.better sync contacts with other phone or PC
It's not always about KUDOS, but to make people happy with their Nokia. get the most of your Nokia.And be happy with what u get ......yet, please dont forget to press KUDOS if my post helped to solve your problem kudos=Rep++

Update Nokia 5800 XM with product code 0574888

Practically all russian users of 5800 can't get access to firmware V20.0.012 and even to V11.0.08. Why?

Hi flashxl,It's because of Russian network operators must approve new SW first.
Like always, a lot of bureaucracy slowing down innovation and changes. I hope RUS operators will sign the RFA and we can upgrate our nice phones very soon.
Cheers..
FYI "20.0.012 software release speeds up your phone with faster touch-screen input. In addition, this update brings faster internet data download times and new camcorder features such as second camera support allowing users to take multiple pictures one after another without needing to repress the picture taking button. Also included is "Geo-tagging", enabling you to add location information to your pictures. Other improvements include: improved e-mail experience, Application Updates feature and better in-device search experience"

12.delivery report dosen't shown at inbux and I should that from Delivery report part and if number of messages is more than 20, we can't know delivery report!!!
13.

1.
2. Their different teams. As I said, this is not a big issue unless more people send emails to Nokia asking for it, and no, as far as I can see, only a minority cares for this issue. Nokia will not spend to develop something in an OS that only a few people care about.
5. Its an OS design. Either live with it or buy a new phone.
7. It seems you do not understand what "country dependent" means. It depends upon your country's rules and regulations if this is available, and if the majority of the countries in the world are making laws for the prohibition of silent cameras, Nokia cannot do anything about it. If they break this law, then that country will not allow Nokia phones to be sold in that country, which is bad for Nokia. Personally I dont understand why people want to remove shutter sound.
9. The setting to get 16:9 ratio is yes, software, but you also have to consider the sensor hardware. The sensor hardware is able to receive light in the same ratio as the pictures, and not in 16:9 ratio. Hardware cannot be adjusted. You yourself said you work with an SLR camera, and if you look through the viewfinder, you see that the camera lens sees the view in a "square" ratio as well like the phone. Creating software to render a picture in 16:9 ratio is just simply creating software that cuts off the reception of light in the top and bottom part of the picture so as to create a 16:9 effect. Meaning the camera is not utilizing the full 3.2 megapixels of the phone, and the result is just the same as getting the picture you took and editing it on your PC to show a 16:9 ratio.

Nokia 5800 - The phone will hang during restart if...

I had bought this nokia 5800 three week ago. This problem did not occur on the first day. On the second day, after i put in some media files inside the memory card through USB connection (using nokia PC suite), the phone will hang during restart and i need to take out the battery to turn the phone off. This problem keep on happens until i remove the memory card from the phone. Somemore, this problem does not disapear even i remove those media files.
With this problem, i need to remove the memory card evey time i restart the phone and plugin the memory card again after the phone is turned on.
Can anybody help me?
By the way, i would like to ask ---> if i plugin the memory card after the phone is ON, will it harm my phone or the memory card?
The memory card is original card come with the phone.
Firmware: V11
Message Edited by aeiouaeiou1980 on 21-Feb-2009 03:02 PM

If this is happening when the MMC is not inserted then the fault almost certainly lies with the memory card somewhere.
A corruption of data can sometimes happen on the MMC when transfering files from pc to phone.
Try the following.
Menu
Applications
File manager
E. Memory Card (select and go into E: drive)
Options
Menory card options
Format
Select Yes
Enter Security code (default is 12345 is not changed)
This will format your memory card, and should delete any corrupted data held on the card.
Note that performing a format on the card will delete all data held on it.

Does the Nokia 5800 support the SU-33W with Mobile...

I have a Nokia N73 and a SU-33W, and I was thinking about upgrading, but according to the Nokia SU-33W support pages very few phones support the device (or DVB-H in general for that matter).
Strangely I found a movie on youtube of someone with a Nokia 5800 that is using it with the SU-33W:
Nokia 5800 and SU-33W
There is also some mention of this on some other sites:
daily mobile
But on the Nokia 5800 or SU-33W page on the Nokia site there is no mention of this. Also the Manual of the 5800 doesn't mentions anything about DVB-H compatibility through the SU-33w.
Is this a special kind of Nokia 5800? Or is it just a normal 5800 with updated firmware that added the functionality?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes Nokia 5800 does support SU-33W ,go to http://www.nokia.it/telefoni_accessori/accessori_nokia/tutti-gli-accessori/casa-e-ufficio/adattatori... it's all Italian as they are one of the few countries who are operating this service, I found the N85 version works with the 5800 ( the N73 version did not) , download the file (sis) that means it's a sybian file (Nokia) now you need to open it to install, the way I done it was to email the file to your 5800 ,open the email click on the sis file in the email to open it and it will ask you if you wanrt to install, click yes, I think when I done it it may have said incompatable I ignored that, so install and hey presto you have MobileTV in your applications you will see the MobileTV Icon, if you have the SU-33W paired it will search for program guides for TV but will find none as they don't exist in UK and you will see other options like you can check the battery level on the SU-33W from the 5800 (cool) , there are no DVBH service in UK at the moment.hope, this helps you guys

W510 not compatible with Nokia 5800 XpressMusic headset (earpiece)?

Hi all,
Have anyone came across this problem? I have 2 of those headset and I tried both in my W510. When I played any music source, the sound is so diffused like as if it works like a surround speaker that only produce presence sound. To get the vocal, I have to shift the Balance to the extreme left or right. First time encounter such problems. However, other headset work fine with my W510.

did you update your phone to the latest firmware for your phone currently it is v30......but it just got released so it may not be avaliable for all product codes just yet. also is your phone unbranded./unlocked if that is the case then you have a better change of updating than with a provider.

you can also try FOTA from your phone by plugging *#0000# on your home screen and see if your phone can pulll the updates.
