Symbian Anna browser problems? N8

Good evening,
I have a problem with my N8. When I go to my favorite forum (SMF forum) the text is to wide and it is a different font. This makes it uncomfortable to read because every time you have to scroll horizontally. The previous version of the browser worked fine. Can I still change my settings or is this another bug in the software?
Hope someone can help me, or that Nokia fixes this bug soon.
Greetz,
Herman

nope Anna is a symbian release that will be out hopefully sometime in August 2011 it is NOT a MeeGo release thats a whole separate platform that N9 will be running on. so yes the Anna update is coming to N8 and E7 and such but it is a symbian update NOT MeeGo so that you are clear.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

Anna/Browser problem

After Anna instal, i've noticed that if, for example, I click the Facebook icon on my desktop (or any icon that invokes the browser to open), the native N8 browser only flashed briefly on the screen, and then vanishes,..never opening the desired web page. Anyone else seen this problem? Anyone kknow of the fix (if any)? Thanks in advance.

Same problem here. Browser starts from the globe icon and works fine. If I click a link from email browser opens and immediately closes without showing the page. Also topApps offers optional update but when I try to update browser seems to opens, closes immediately and system error is displayed. This affects also other applications which try to open the browser. So basically this phone became pretty useless after this update. Does not help if I change Opera as default browser since it does not open either. It did not work even before the update.
I have almost the same problems, sometimes it just shows up and dissapear instantaneously, sometimes it does the same but whit a message with the system error, sometimes it works when open the browser from other applications. Very erratic

Problems with C7 symbian Anna updating

Please answer immediatly!!
I have a C7 with Symbian Anna
Today I update the software with Ovi Suite but on 3th phase, the Cell doesn't restart
Pleaseeee help me!!
How can I resolve the problem?

If I remember, the difference is that via NSU the firmware gets updated as a whole, but via OTA it's updated over the top of existing firmware or it's added to what already exists in the phone. Similar to the difference between upgrading from say from an older version of Microsoft windows to a newer version vs a fresh install of a new version

Problem with n8 update symbian anna

i updated yesterday my n8 with symbian anna and the vibration stop working.i checked settings and it is on but not working..i have reinstall the anna 2 times from then.

All look ups made through a reverse cellphone lookup directory are made in complete privacy so the caller will never know if you searched their number.
,It is worth noting that there are no free services that offer the full information of a caller that the tracer report does through a reverse phone directory

E7 file editor problem in symbian anna os

i can't create new file on file editor after i updated my E7 os with symbian anna. how can i resolve it?

Try re-installing the software or doing a reset, either may help, but re-intalling the software will be easier and quicker. To reset , back up contacts , calendar and notes ONLY, as a full backup and restore will restore any issues you have, Then dial *#7370# followed by 12345 if required and set up the phone manually, you will lose all data on the phone and have to re-install your apps and media !
Good Luck

Symbian Anna...Deja Vu

I KNOW everyone is **bleep**, I KNOW everyone is disppointed, frustrated, angry....gosh the words does not cover the emotions involved...
I have gone through all the emotions...first the excitement when the news came out 'new update coming soon!'...then disappointment, followed by anger and now...a lil' bit i-don't-give-a-fruitcake' lol...
People, please realise, Nokia is a business...they make phones and they need to sell phones. They said they still have 10 phones to come out between now and approximately end of next year (2012). So you have to understand, they need to have a tactic in place, to get people to keep buying their phones. Otherwise, Nokia would go bankrupt and that's a no no (business 101). So their tactic is to delay software updates, bring in 'new phones' with the new updates in place, so that this will entice new buyers. They're then told 'oh there's a new update, coming soon'. They don't care about the old customers...they've got your money already...they're not entitled to give you 'free stuff'. (they missed the memo, coz loyal fans are GOLD).
Suppose if Nokia had given the anna update at end of q1 as 'planned'. That means all the old and loyal customers would've been super happy (SUPER DUPER HAPPY). BUTTTTT, then the x7 would've been obsolete, EVEN before it had came out!!! There would be no reason for people to buy an x7, especially since it would've been super duper expensive. On the other hand, people would be buying the n8/c7/c6 coz they'd be cheap...AND have the latest software. Now this would've been very silly!!
So relax people. Nokia is stuck in a rut...they can't do anything right, because...the only options they've got are either go bankrupt really early, or...get the people angry. They simply chose the lesser of the two devils, which makes sense. The job of a CEO is to keep the company floating...Now whether this tactic will work or not...well, it got many of you to buy the n8 early to get the update...so it might work again in the future...maybe
Yes there's heaps of problems, yes you've worked hard for your money, YES YOU'RE SUPER DUPER ANGRYYYY...but that won't change the tactic at Nokia. So take it down a notch, go ahead and vent your frustrations and anger (in a sensible way...). IT IS NOKIA'S FAULT, but they gotta do what's right for them...
Hoping you all have the best of days ahead...

Hey Jerspa!!
I think we can agree that symbian is dead. it's not the future. We should've seen it coming, i mean...like you said years and years but that only produced a still unfinished product. I think meego's the future.yes it's not dual core or has a super duper awesome plus and multipled amoled screen. but the clear black display is awesome when comboed with a normal amoled. no complaints there. I doubt a duo core/quad core is that important for a mobile (ok my point of view). The only thing i'd miss is the 1080i vids. but games and other apps...i'm gonna stick with my laptop/computer.
Now i'll wait for a meego with 1080i vid +30fps caf, xenon flash, and usb otg. note, that's MY dream phone...mine, not anyone elses...
oh and a good battery of course
First off: I didnt claim that symbian is dead.
Then why i rant here?
Answer:
My last phone were 3720 classic, it were fine working phone. Everything worked as expected without bugs.
Now when i take the N8 from my pocket which is premium phone and 3x more expensive than 3720 classic, the 2 first months were horrible. Everyday that "insert sim" "phone rebooting" "program crashed" stuff. Then Pr1.1 came, which still didnt provided the support. PR1.2 fixed the problems with email etc. That were only corporate stuff.
So lets talk about those leaked vids about PR2.0:
In february we saw allready working splitscreen qwerty and draggable HS + new browser. <- less than 4 months from the delivery date to market. That was impressive, but it isnt anymore since it takes 6 months to deliver that damn update. Thats unacceptable.
Lets look the PR2.0 press release in Conversations:
http://conversations.nokia.com/2011/04/12/announcing-symbian-anna-aka-pr2/
Now lets pick up the cherries:
Enhanced Browser (v7.3): <- This is new
Enhanced Ovi Maps (v3.06): <- This is allready newer
Enhanced Ovi Store (v2.06.xx) >- Same for here
Enhanced Social (v1.3) <- Same for here
So as you can see, wheres the all time spend? theres nothing new, Nokia is really lettings us like without clothes to middle of antartica with S^3 phones, the support for this is horrible.
Theres no way that any of PR team or Dev team can defend this situation until they let the iron curtains down and show us the one fact: Why it takes so long? What is wrong? AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MAKE IT BETTER?
As we seen above, Skyee's team aint working at the social team, nor in maps team nor in ovi store team.
So while i debunked the all "we are working hard" claims, theres really nothing that can explain the delay.
Funny fact is that S40 phones are getting the same functionalities as S^3 so why would anybody buy this over priced N8?
I mean, Compare N8 to C6-01 that phone is 2.5X cheaper than N8. Still the N8 doesnt have ANY extra that would justify the price?. This also the thing why i am very angry.
When Comparing to E7 and N8, E7 is in lower stage in the portfolio pyramid and still its more worth, it has more functionalities than N8, same price.In the S^3 phones, N8 is the loser. Nothing really supports the price.
Also when i bought the N8, i skipped the N95 and N97* because i saw those via friends, i know that those got problems. So i hoped so much that the S^3 would be new symbian, rewritten and a os that have rid off the same old failures that N95 and N97* got in software quality.
Damn it, everything were even worse than those phones, even small basic functionalities are missing here and there. This so half baked product, Even the MP3 player is mising a EQ <- A basic function, been on phones for many years. Even N95 and N97* have that LMAO.
Theres really nothing new in this Anna update, this is why the stocks goes down, this why the sales wont go up. S^3 is the total failure in nokias history, how it can be, that the S^3 phones are in 3rd generation which fails in SOFTWARE QUALITY.

Symbian Anna update 1/2 failed to install

The story so far. I did the first round Anna update (around 27 mb i think) OTA cos my Ovi Suite never able to update firmware on my n8 since trying to update it to PR 1.2, and I did try reinstalling, redownload, reboot PC, reg clean, ccleaner to fix the Suite but it still do not update my firmware at all. But that's another story.
So I installed the 1st round, n8 rebooted to white screen, rebooted into homesceen with Midnight theme. SW update then shows 4 more items: Anna update 1/2, 2/2, Store and Social. The 1/2 was showing around 20++ mb. So I selected all 4 and update. Halfway through the installing process of 1/2 update (note the download part of 1/2 was very fast), I did plug in the power pin, cos the installation process was damn slow for 1/2. I did not notice wheher it finised installing cos later i checked it was already on 2/2 (downloaded and installing). It then went to the last two items and installed ok.
Rebooted device, but SW update still showed Anna update 1/2 available (the only one left) and the download size is now 7166 kb. I proceed to update it, it failes with error but no error codes or any message what was the error about. I tried again and again, with fresh reboots, still failes. What gives?
Even more, split screen not here. I did the uninstalling Swype, activating qwerty mode in portrait, still no split screen. I do not have any Betalabs apps.
My Quickoffice & Reader is not here anymore (the app manager not showing them too). Heck I bought the full ver of Quickoffice 6 last time. Wat a waste of my money now that ver 7 is out!!
Anyone knows how to delete the "dowloaded cache" of SW updates? I want to force SW update to redownload this 1/2 item to try fix this issue.
Thanks for listening and please help. Cheers!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I got the same problem since this morning on both my N8 & just found out solution on a previous update error similar to this & completed the update on one of the N8. Re-trying on another one.
Working Solution for failed update was found on Flashism's website quoted & "touched up" per below:
Big thanks to user “Unick” on Nokia Support Forums, who posted a working solution to the problem, and there are couple of successful installs reported from the solution.
I just deleted folder E:\Private\20019119\. After that I ran SW update on the phone & it restarted download of Symbian Anna Update 1/2 & 2/2 as well as Social, they finished updates successfully.
To delete the mentioned folder, follow these simple steps:
• Connect your Nokia N8/C7 in Mass Storage mode to PC via USB cable
• Locate and delete folder named “20019119″ under \Private folder of Mass Storage
• Unplug the device from PC, and retry again. It should work.
However, I still got no popup split keyboard after completing the updates & restarted the phone.

Missing features in Symbian Anna (Is it only me? o...

I installed the Symbian Anna Update which was released yesterday (18th August 2011) and got trough the update process despite the difficulties the Software Updater in my phone caused. After the update I noticed some features are missing:
(Not Adobe reader or Quickoffice, they were available after the update.)
1. The animated pop-up notification that I got when I connected to the internet is missing in Symbian anna. (It's really annoying because I can't actually see what access point my phone is using unless I look harder.)
2. The Games folder is missing (The Icon with the game controller on it)
3. No wallpaper in the Default "Midnight" Themes.
4. Homescreen Rotation is a bit jumpy. (The operators name doesn't appear with the rotation animation. It jumps in)
If anyone encountered any of these problems, please let me know. If you have a solution I'd really appreciate it. Or if these things are normal. Well I'll wait for a future software update from Nokia.
I have a Nokia C7-00, I tried reinstalling the Software update and Soft-Resetting but non of it worked. Just so you know.
Thanks,
Lasiru.

Hi,
Seems that you have downloaded an old version of OWB. The new version is 9.2, not 9.0.2 and it is as far as I know only available as a standalone download.
The version of Developer Suite currently on OTN is more than a year old.

E7 Symbian Anna music player vs N8 PR1.2 music pla...

Does anyone here happen to have both the E7 (with Symbian Anna), as well as an N8 9with PR1.2)?
If so, can you do a comparison of the Anna music player compared to the poor default player of the N8?
Are there any noticeable UI differences at all, or have Nokia plainly just neglected the music player entirely with the Anna update? Are we destined to continue using such a broken piece of music software until further updates? Have Nokia ignored all feedback relating to the N8's music player, and failed to rectify the problems which plague it currently?
I think many people will agree that the music player on older Nokia handsets is far superior than that of the N8, so I am wondering whether they have listened to complaints and fixed the problems which were reported (Ie, a major gripe was having the Artists and Albums combined)
Any heads-up of what to expect with our N8 Anna update would be very useful!

Well for starters, how are songs organised on the E7? Are artists and albums still grouped together, or have Nokia split them up as they should be?
One of the main problems of the N8 music player is that multiple artists who share an album name (Ie, "Greatest Hits") seem to get grouped together under just one album title. Is this still true on the E7?
Also, how are compilation albums displayed? This has also been an issue on the N8, mainly because artists and albums have been grouped together, rather than separately as per older Nokia devices such as the N91, N82, N95, and N96
Does Anna on the E7 feature a graphical equaliser? This was something else which was missing from the N8, but present on previous handsets.
Have Nokia added an alphabetical search field for the music player, as promised? With split-screen QWERTY text entry, there is now no reason why this should not have been added
Little things like these. How does the E7 Anna software compare to the N8 PR1.2 software? Or have Nokia just blatantly ignored the music player entirely?

Does Nokia Co have a solution to E7 Symbian Anna P...

This will be my last complaint to write about my Nokia E7 and its problems associated with Symbian Anna update.
I have intalled all the 2 updates but my OVI store does not work, I cannot install applications that I bought when I had symbian^3 firmware and don't want to go into details again.
My Question to Nokia company is: Do you have a solution to our complaints about symbian anna or not? If you have it what is it not suggestions as you have been giving us. If you don't have a solution can you please release the downgrade to Symbian 3 firmware so that we go back but be happy using the phone as almost everybody in the world is complaining about symbian anna and it seems you are not listening..
Give us a solution or will sale my lovely Nokia E7 phone after two weeks from today

Having your phone re-flashed will resolve the issue, that's what I've had to do, and all is well now !

Symbian Anna TURKEY!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Nokia,
I have a nokia c7 in Turkey.
When will symbian anna come to Turkey? What is the problem? When will we see new software on ovi suite? Please give an aswer exactly.
Thank you...

We've been waiting for Anna for a long time.
Finally, The end of August came, but still we have not any update.
Nokia phones are still the best seller phones in Turkey.
(May be the most selling phones in Turkey around the World and among the other countries).
But Nokia usually disregards this fact and bring software updates (and some new models) to Turkey very lately (almost after the updates and new models released in all countries)
Why?
If you encounter some difficulties in software adaptation with turkish alphabet characters or local operators, why don't you start preparing it early?
It's enough, we've done with waiting.
Please, give us an "exact date" (for example: 5th september etc) for the Anna update.
Or you'll encounter "some additional difficulties" in Turkey like "big protest actions"!!!
Many Turkish Nokia users are discussing about "delaying in Anna update" in cellphone forums and they're all angry with Nokia!
We're looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
bulutsuzgece

Symbian Anna - Contacts with Pictures attached

On Outlook, I've attached some pictures to some of my contacts (pictures of their faces).
I sync these contacts to the new E6 phone, operating Symbian Anna
When someone calls me, or when I call someone, these pictures show up on the phone. The problem however, is that a grey box that says "Calling..." pops up on top of the picture with the name and the phone number in the box. Roughly 40% of the picture is blocked on the bottom side.
The weird thing is that there are a few of my contacts whose picture floats ABOVE the grey "Calling..." box. These are the exception though. Most of my contacts with pictures have half their face covered by this box.
I want to see the person's full face. How do I either, (1) turn off the calling box, or (2) make the pictures float above the calling box?
Thanks for helping!

I get the name band accross the contact picture, but probably only over 20% of it, however I have the E7, and it may be something to do with the aspect ratio of the screen on the E6 that is causing the issue, as it does with some games/apps ? All I could suggest is checking some of the pictures that work ok and setting the others to the same dimentions as those ?
Good Luck

How can I un-install Symbian Anna software from C6

I have updated my nokia c6 device software with Symbian Anna software after that I have facing problem. I want to un-install (revert back to original software) the update.
Please help me in this.
Thanks in Advance.

This question has been answered many times and it boils down to this... if you have a really compelling reason to do the downgrade and state your case to Nokia support there is a small chance that they will accomodate you. Otherwise you're left to deal with the problem on your own and it is generally not recommended that you fool with flashing yourself. It's risky and unsupported.
