  • E72 gives system error on trying to switch on wlan...

    I have been facing this problem since yesterday, while using the phone, the phone was connected to wifi but i wasn't able to browse the net. i faced this problem earlier but it went away when i reconnected the wifi, however, when i did it this time, the phone started to behave in an inappropriate manner, so i restarted it and since then , whenver i switch on wlan scan, i sem to get "system error" message and the message wont go away.
    I have even hard reset the phone and reinstalled the firmware using nokia suite, but the problem still persists.
    Anyone else had or has this problem or know any solution ??
     I am on 081.003 fw version. 

    I also noticed that i can use the wifi without any problem when there isn't any sim card inserted in the phone. :/

  • E-5 WLAN scanning not getting switched off

    Hello all Nokia Users,
    I have a strange problem. My E5 has the following setting for WLAN:
    Ctr Panel>Settings>Connection>Wireless LAN>Show WLAN Availablity = Never
    However, the entire time the background scanning is being done and "Select WLAN Network" popup comes with all the networks around me. I guess this is eating into the battery life and barely 10 hrs in the day, the battery dies out. I would like to add that I am a non phone person & hardly talk on the phone.
    I am able to access the network service providers 3G network normally.
    I want to shut this background scanning for good and use only the network of my service provider.
    Appreciate your feedback.
    Thanks.

    If you switch the standby screen to "Active" (Ctrl. panel, Themes, Standby) there should be a WLAN option - mine displays "WLAN scanning off" as WLAN scanning is, indeed, off; there is also an option to switch it off if it is currently on. Is this the case for you?
    If the WLAN option is not displayed you can add it in Ctrl. panel, Modes, Home screen applications, Wireless LAN. 

  • Switching off wif on Nokia E63?

    I have been trying to switch of the wifi for a while now but won't work I have went on
    MENU>TOOLS>SETTINGS>CONNECTION>WIRELESS LAN>SHOW WLAN AVAILABIITY to never.
    I have tried many other ways to switch it off like disconnecting it, switiching my phone off and back on and turning my internet conncection off from the routet. I als came across on an article that E63 's wifi will never turn off and this is happing to me. Its really frustrating as I was able to go on three network to "My3 planet" to check my top up allowance I have used but now I can't do even do that. 
    I have downloaded whats app but I always exit from that app.  I really need to check my top up when ever I go to click planet 3 it connects via my wifi then comes up saying switch off your wifi on your phone's setting which I have tried but no luck! Plz help 
    Thanks

    Such issues usually seems to be hardware failure, fw failure. Similar behavior can however be caused by a faulty simcard or memory card. - At least the turning off-part.
    Since you've tried bot hard reset and soft reset it probably has to go back to Nokia.
    I was thinking about reinstalling the fw, but Nokia has probably done that when it was "repaired".
    After resetting it and getting it back, did you install any backups on it? I was thinking about making another hard reset, format the mass memory and let it run a while before installing anything on it. If it works now, it would probably be something that you've previously backed up. - It could be a corrupt mass memory too if you haven't formatted it before.
    Beware that a format of mass memory will delete anything that's on it. Make a back up!
    Do you happen to have a memory card installed in the phone? It could also be an issue with that.
    You should try adding one by one thing to it to be able to eliminate all possibilities and finally get the "bad guy".
    I would try leaving the memory card out (if you have one, and see how it goes. If it's still the same, format the mass memory. Still the same: Change your sim card or try another simcard for a few days if you have one spare or anyone you know can let you borrow one.
    If it still turns off and on even in areas with good reception, I would send it back with a note describing what you have already done to try solving the issue.
    They should now be able to do a much better job.
    Pitty they didn't fixed it in the first place, but it could be something you add to it that the Nokia care point didn't have in hand...

  • Turned off auto-scanning, turned on Switch control. Why don't I have control on my screen?

    I saw this video on Facebook about switch control about the head gestures etc. I thought I would give it a try. Turned off auto scanning (DOnt know what this is) as the video instructed, then turned on  switch control. I set one of the switches to increase volume so I threw on some music to test it out. (didn't work). So I locked my phone. When I turned it on, I could not do anything on my phone (swipe to unlock, pause music, volume up/down nothing!) I tried the bail out feature, and nothing.
    HELP??

  • How to switch off a Nokia 9210

    I would like to switch off my nokia 9210 (the communicator not the phone), but I failed to find a way to do it so far...
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks

    You just need to take out the battery... there is no other way to switch off the communicator part of the phone. (apart from throwing it quite fiercely on the floor of course... but I never recommended that!)

  • Nokia CK-7W Car Kit won't switch off after switch...

    Hi,
    I have a CK-7W car kit (connected via bluetooth).
    Recently, the car kit has been reconnecting 2 to 3 seconds after switching the engine of the car off. I cannot seem to stop this from happening, even when clearing memory or even disconnecting the car battery for 20 mins.
    Any advice on how to reset the car kit would be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Thanks for the response.
    The car kit was installed by a Car Phone Warehouse Nokia approved fitter about 4 years ago The kit has worked really well until recently!
    The contol button doesn't seem to be stuck in and responds as it should to button presses. In terms of the cable being squashed or damaged. Obviously there is a chance, but in actual fact, only an inch is on show before it is hidden behind the dashboard. In this instance I'm not sure what damage might occur since I don't know how to remove the dash!
    Apologies, I'm not certain I understand your comment re:
      -  "You can rule out the button by disconnecting it then starting the car and connecting, before switching off the car to see if the kit shuts down."
    How do I disconnect the button? Does it pull away from the lead / cable?
    Many, many thanks for your help,
    Chris

    There are a few different way. Don't forget to backup your data first.
    First is FOTA (firmware over the air). Type the code *#0000# then goto Options>Check for updates. You will will need to go online for this so unless you have a data package ensure you are within range of your wifi.
    The other option is to use Ovi Suite or NSU.

  • Nokia C7 - WLAN Scan, FM Transmitter, Bluetooth ca...

    Hi,
    I got my phone 4 months ago and started having problems last month. The WLAN Scan, FM Transmitter and Bluetooth are no longer working and causes my phone to restart. I restored it to factory defaults and didn't solve the issue.
    I'm using the software version 14.002 and tried re-updated to the recent version and still got the same problems. Now, this phone restart or hangs when I'm on a call or while playing music.
    Any ideas what must've caused this problem or any ideas with a specific part that is faulty? I appreciate your response. Thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    My WLAN scan no longer invokes the restart when i updated to v22.014 but they still do not work, the WLAN scan continously scan and it's not detecting any WiFi hotspots although others can. As for the bluetooth and FM Transmitter, it's still the same.
    I brought it to the Nokie Care Center here in the Philippines and just got the phone yesterday. They voided the warranty because they said that it was a corroded motherboard that causes the majority of the restarts that I encountered.
    I'm very disappointed in Nokia since I just got this phone for 4 months ago and love this C7, I don't even remember that will cause an issue with my C7's motherboard corrosion because i followed each and everything that was mentioned in the user guide. Maybe they could also put other factors that will cause the corrosion. I had this phone kept from hot and cold environment at home and at my workplace to ensure that there will no moist but what happened.
    I still paid for the diagnostic fee since they said the warranty has been voided and returned the phone to me with a corrupted OS and they couldn't bring it back at least to the state it was sent for repair. We couldn't even test the functionality of my phone since the OS is corrupted and i have to pay a 3rd party technician to flash the OS.
    I've been a Nokia user for 9 years and working with Customer Service industry for 5 years and this is the first time that i experienced this problem and i'm very much disappointed with your service and your product. This may be a problem with the quality of the parts used for this motherboard in order to compete with other brands (iPhone, Samsung, HTC).
    This is very bad for the business and I do not deserve this kind of treatment as a loyal customer. I will not recommend your product to anyone that i know at my workplace, neighborhood or even my friends in all social networking sites)
