How do I know when there is new software available for my Nokia device?
There are several ways to be notified about new sw versions for each Nokia device:
1) Use Nokia PC Suite
Whenever you connect your device to the latest version of Nokia PC Suite with a compatible USB cable, PC Suite will check if there is an update for your device. Note that this notification only works when you use a USB cable connection.
2) Check online
You can easily check the latest available version on the
Nokia Software Update website.
Currently Nokia does not publish the expected release dates for new software versions.
What has been updated in each new software version?
Main updates are published on the
Nokia Software Update website.
How can I make my Nokia device's battery last longer?
Here are some of the most common tips. Note that these tips do not apply to all Nokia device models:

I wrote all my posts from 2005-2011 as an "Admin" for this community. I still work for Nokia as an external consultant, so my rank in all posts is now "Employee".

Very strange - or perhaps not that strange but just another issue.... I tried the Hard Reset code again at this time it worked!!! I'm now re-entering my details and remembering what I didn't back up But if it fixes my issues it will be worth it.
FYI from another fine post I found:
FOR SOFT-RESET:
- at Standby Screen type-in => *#7780#
It will ask for “Restore all phone settings-phone’ll restart….”
Then it asks for security code enter factory default => 12345
FOR HARD-RESET:
- at Standby Screen type-in => *#7370#
It will ask for “Restore all phone settings-phone’ll restart….”
Then it asks for security code enter factory default => 12345
FOR FLASHING- TOTAL RESTORE: (Do this if your phone does not boot up)
1) Remove the battery, and then wait for about 20 min or so before putting it back
2) Press and hold these three keys together -Green dial key, Star key[*], Three key [3]
3) switch ON the phone.
4) Do not let go the three keys until you see the WELCOME screen displayed and just let it complete the boot process
if this doesnt help contact Nokia Care Point-> http://europe.nokia.com/A4388379

If you're having trouble getting a route:
Make sure the date, time and time zone on your phone are set properly.
Check that you've got a data connection.
A point in your route might be in a region where no transport info is available.
The route is too long. HERE Transit is designed for use with local city public transport, not national or international transport.
Can I save routes in HERE Transit?
You can pin a journey from your current location as a tile to your Windows Phone start screen.
Select the options icon at the bottom of the screen, and then the pin icon.

Although i work for Nokia, my opinions are my own!
Got a Maps query? Check our Maps FAQ's

Sorry, I'd like to unresolve this. The workaround mentioned is not a solution.
I travel to loads of places by motorcycle, and going off the beaten track is wonderful. Since I upgraded My E6-00 and C7-00 to a Lumia 920, I'm back to allowing the SatNav (phone) to decide where I go. Boring dual carriageways and bypasses are now my natural habitat - bah humbug. Afterall, the phone is in my pocket (safe from weather), headphones in my helmet - I can't constantly look at a map. Having multiple 'favourites' and planning from one to the next isn't workable. Fair enough the Lumia 920 is usable with gloves on (major plus for a biker, come on you marketing people!) but I don't fancy re-routing all the time by the side of a road.
I'm also planning a charity cycle ride over 100s of miles this Summer, and while that can be done in BikeRouteToaster, Google Maps etc, there is no import function into 'HERE' that I can see. It's impossible to plan a route on the device itself. Yes it can route walker (I can't seem to get turn by turn working for that, but nevermind), public transport and car, I have an option to avoid motorways etc, but cycle route planning needs consideration for height metres, unpaved/paved roads (Google StreetView etc used a lot to find a Sustrans route is actually unfit for road bikes) etc. So.. Importing a route planned elsewhere (gpx, kml or something) would be a real alternative, or a workaround. Asking the device to do its own planning from one point to another really isn't workable.
Please make the Nokia's USP an actual USP again?

Using Google GWT to create (Dashcode) widgets for iBook Author I would like to embed interactive widgets in iBooks using iBookAuthor. The widgets in question started life in Java but GWT has allowed them to be converted to javascript and to run on web pa

I would like to embed interactive widgets in iBooks using iBookAuthor. The widgets in question started life in Java but GWT has allowed them to be converted to javascript and to run on web pages (for example, http://softoption.us/content/node/437 scroll to the bottom). In theory, iBookAuthor can bring in most html5, and much javascript. The technique is to wrap the html in a folder, with 2 extra files, a plist and a default png and then change the extension of the folder to ‘.wdgt’. This is the technique for making Dashboard widgets for the Mac, and Apple even have the Dashcode software to do it. So what you really do is to make a Dashboard widget, then iBookAuthor can import it. So far, so good. And some folk have been doing this, for example http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/2/prweb9242432.htm http://www.panophoto.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=10417&p=158330#p158423 However, if you start with GWT and create a single page with one button and a Hello World, compile it, and get the WAR file (I use Eclipse here)… the Safari browser and others will run it properly (even on an iPad). Then if you wrap it, a proper Dashboard widget is created, which runs properly on a Mac. Then if you go to iBookAuthor and put a custom widget in the Text, then drag it in. It is accepted by the text and shown as being there. However, if you use Preview to look at it on an iPad, it is gone (or was never there in the first place). Anyone any ideas on this? [And iBook Author seems to give no warnings.] The widget is at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46713473/Test6.wdgt.zip I have bells and whistles that I’d like to get into an iBook!
Thanks for any insights.
Martin

I do have a little to add, which might help someone. Indeed, opening a blank page and dragging the widget straight in seems good in difficult cases. But, actually, I was also able to insert successfully from the Toolbar especially to blank pages. So, it may have been something to do with the columns and stuff like that. Anyway back then the insertion would show in iBooks Author but not in the Preview on the iPad. I moved on to actual Google Web Toolkit output javascript. Basically I had three at hand to try: a Hello World with a button which went straight it, one of moderate complexity, (for example with a built in Lisp interpreter), which also went straight in, and finally a more complex one that initially was rejected by iBook Author. Author complained that there was an unsupported media file (of course, Author does not tell you which one it is, that would be too easy). [Remember, this was a proper working Dashboard widget which could be installed on a Mac]. Among other things I had read remarks about .gif files. When looking through the GWT war directory at the actual javascript etc files, I noticed there were two gifs there one called ‘clear.cache.gif ‘ and a second one called ‘0F89659FF3F324AE4116F700257E32BD.cache.gif’. (Now, there is obfuscation so the numbers here may be different from case to case.) The clear.cache.gif did not seem to be anything special. But the other one is an animation. It is three little boxes that twinkle (rather like a waiting spinning cursor). So, I opened that file and saved it to itself (that picks the top frame of the animation and saves only that, leaving you with an unanimated gif). The resulting widget drags and drops into iBooks Author (and seems to work properly at a quick glance). So, if you are having trouble with ‘unsupported media files’ converting animated gifs into unanimated gifs might help in some cases.

TOP questions for Eseries devices - not so new!

Just noticed that the thread titled:
TOP questions for Eseries devices - start here [new]
Really isn't so new dated 30-Cot-2007 11:48 AM - last edited on 30-Oct-2007 11:48 AM
The post suggests that the first thing to do is update to the latest version of software.
Alas the last update for E72 was 27 October 2010 which is flawed! I know as my phone has misbehaved since installing it and I see other users reporting similar if not the same issues here.
*#0000# reports version 052.005.217.11
Question - How does one down grade to previous version?
The post then suggests "If you still experience problems, you can try if formatting your Eseries device helps. Format the device by dialling *#7370#. The device will request a security code, the default code is 12345 unless you have changed it."
Well actually on the E72 this does nothing! I Type in *#7370# and its displayed to me and nothing else happens. If I enter *#0000# I get the version number so it seems the software/firmware does not understand the code above!
I did try 'factory settings' option from one of the control panel menu's instead at some point of my misery but was surprised by just how little effect that had - many things were not reset.
If your still reading, I thought I would share some steps I have found to sometimes help on E72 when it appears to hang / stall:
1. Try holding down the home button and if the running applications bar is shown try closing the applications by pressing the delete (backspace) key.
2.- If that fails try pressing the off button and selecting 'offline' mode - This sometimes works - if it does then try previous point before going back to an online mode such as 'general'.
3. If that fails - try holding down the power button to turn device off - that sometimes works! But sometimes the keyboard lights simply stay on until the battery goes dead...
4. Remove the battery wait a moment and then re-insert battery. You may then have to enter the time and date. Do check your alarms - during GMT I noticed all my alarms would have incremented by an hour! Not seen this since BST started.

Very strange - or perhaps not that strange but just another issue.... I tried the Hard Reset code again at this time it worked!!! I'm now re-entering my details and remembering what I didn't back up But if it fixes my issues it will be worth it.

Using the Assets panel [was: The most basic stupid question on here]

I am very new to web design, self taught on sites like GoDaddy and Microsoft Office Live, but there's no access to root directory and adding affiliate banners won't work. So here I am. Problem #1 so far is how do I get stuff into my assets. I've messed around for a while w/ no success. It can't be that hard. Someone out there please give this "newbie" the instructions for getting text, images and stuff from my computer into the assets box on Dreamweaver. I'll have nightmares about "dreamweaver" till I get this figured out. Thanks a million in advance for answering such a basic (almost stupid) question

There are no stupid questions around here, but a more descriptive subject heading would be appreciated in the future. "Assets Question"
Define a Local Site folder In Dreamweaver. Without this critical first step, DW cannot manage assets for you.

My secret questions starting with g... mail not belong to me i couldnt change my answers

my secret questions starting with g... mail not belong to me i couldnt change my answers..
i use only my apple id mail which is [email protected]

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

It is so nice spending 2 hours on a phone to be hung up upon waiting for a supervisor. After being told the day before I would get a call when the customer service representiave started her shift at 7pm to give me more answers. I do not like to be stuck w

What a frustrating experience I have had trying to get away from This phone and Plan. I just want to down grade this phone. What difference does it make to you here? All VZW will do is re certify the phone and give it to someone else. I just would like to down grade to a cheaper phone and do away with android os. I still have the same issues with the phone as I did with my other one within a hour of re activating it. I should have no issues with the os it is flawed and should not happen. I am sorry to say but The blackberry OS is a lot more stable. There may not be as many apps but it is more productive and being able to multi task is a lot more needed on a phone. I was told yesterday I would get a call back today at 7pm when this tech support lady would start her shift to give me my options and she did not call. Making me call at 930pm today and after talking to someone I waited for 45 minuets to be hung up on. That is a real great way to treat a customer and make things better.

N900 N97 fair trade in campaign starts here

Seeing as so many users are unhappy with their N97's myself personally included (but ive persevered)
despite having to reboot,hard reset,missing music files,missing artwork,backups not working,scratched camera lens,countless hours spent on forums trying to solve issues and hundred of hours of my spare time
and basically the product was launched in no fit state for commercial use and even now after the latest firmware still has software issues and bugs hows about someone from Nokia saying fairs fair we havent handled this situation well why not let N97 users exchange/trade in their n97's against a N900 which I am presuming has been beta tested better
as a loyal nokia customer I would happily pay an admin charge for this service somewhere between £50 and £100
which i think is a fair compromise bearing in mind the new n900 is launching for about the same price as the N97 did and the fact that the N97 mini is cheaper and has more ram !!
The campaign for nokia to do this starts here lets get lots of supportand take it to nokia

remember when the N95 first came out?it was buggy as hell compared to my grandma's attic..:manvery-happy:
I had one... Actually I still have one. N95-1, silver with a plum back.
I was an early adopter of that. It might have had bugs, but all the functions worked. It was quirky and used to eat the battery. That's okay, I can work with that, just had a spare charger in the office. Later firmware solved the battery eating habit.
The N97 however was quirky for me with V11 and V12... Fine, I've lived with that before, no show stoppers. V20 is a whole new kettle of fish... It's terrible. They made album artwork work in music player, and broke the player for me! I can't control the volume of mp3 playback (if it will even start the app without throwing one of a selection of error messages, including "USB Attached!", "Out of memory" or "System Error").
I did a complete wipe and reinstall V2.00.19, once finished I connect to my wifi and OVI Store app says it needs to update... Fine, do it I say... It then throws up and error "Unable to download nnnnn.sisx". Repeated via phone data connection... This is a fresh reload with formatted mass memory!
I eventually had to change the HTTP User Agent on my browser to pretend to be an N97 browser to download the new sisx with my PC and then install it with PC Suite.
I now have the N95 in my pocket to use as my mp3 player! At least the handsfree kit fits both.
I should have learnt... I never upgrade windows version until SP1 comes out, I shouldn't have gone to V20 until V21 appeared. I just didn't think it could have more quirks than V12... Well I guess it doesn't. Most of the quirks have gone... It just has howling bugs!

Blind link in EPM 11.1.2 "Installation Start Here" document

Hi there Oracle EPM people,
in the "Installation Start Here" document there are several references (e.g.Table 1 Documentation That You Need) to this link:

Thanks Robert,
Well, today - Yes.
However, Yesterday No. Definitely!
But good to know it works from now.
Thanks to the little wizards :-)

Questions About Here

Hi
I have some questions about "here maps" and "here drive"
Here Maps & Here Drive
I first don't get really the difference between these 2 apps, Here maps seems to do driving directions just like Here Drive. Seems almost redundant.
Here Drive
Can I organize my favorites into folders?
Can I find all routes(Google Maps will show you a list of all routes and then you choose one)
If I run into a detour how can I tell the here drive to find me a different way?
Does Traffic Updates Use a lot of data? How accurate is it?
Does Cortana Work With Here Drive
How often Does the maps get updated? Do you get a notification about new map updates?
Anyone compare Here Drive vs a Garmin Device?
Can I backup my favorites?
Cortana has "Places" can those be synced with "here drive", basically "here drive" gets launched but it does not seem like favoirties are shared.

Somehow. Actually, HERE Drive is a spin-off of HERE Maps, to faciliate and concentrate on the voice-guided car navigation. It is a different entry-point into the various HERE apps.

Symbian: yes, Web: yes, Windows Phone: no

You get a notification in your phone when you open one of the HERE apps. In the past, we got updates around every quarter, sometimes half a year.

I bought a second hand Macbook Pro and colorful stud

Bad movie started here I did not get it with a disc and I come to install the operating system
And he asks the name of Apple's user ID financed had been bought Lion OS Now
And who sold me does not answer then I found the phone number of his mother
She said he lived in USA and paid him more than the lion version of the MacBook and now I can not install Lion
And I'm not from USA

Unless you go back to the original owner, yes you need to pay for it again.
You're entitled to the OS that shipped with the device from Apple, but if you don't have that media there's nothing you can really do. If the system originally shipped with 10.7 or 10.8 then when you boot it to Internet Recovery, it will automatically offer you that OS version (as the serial # is registered with Apple). If it shipped with an older OS, then you need to enter the Apple ID that purchased 10.7 or 10.8. You didn't purchase it so that's not you.
The options you have are to buy Lion for $29 US (I don't know the price in Palestine), or Mountain Lion for $19 US (don't know the price in Palestine either), and install from scratch.
And it's a good idea to know you have restore media before you reformat your machine.

If your Nokia device was originally manufactured for use in another country or region, using Nokia Software Updater may revert the set of available device languages to the original language set.
If your preferred language is no longer available after using Nokia Software Updater, you may need to return your Nokia device to a Nokia Care point to have this language reinstated.
Other people can update their software but I cannot, although we have the same Nokia device model. What's wrong?
Update availability is based on many things, including existing Nokia device firmware version, country, and operator. It may be due to one of these variables that your Nokia device isn't eligible for updates.
Please note that your mobile service provider, operator, or carrier may not have approved the latest Nokia device firmware available.
Nokia produces many different variants of each product (for different countries and languages) and not all variants have the latest Nokia device firmware. It is our priority to update all variants as quickly as possible, and we apologise for any delay. New software may become available at a later date, however, so please check again soon.
Why doesn’t Nokia Suite detect my device?
Sometimes the drivers for your Nokia device and associated connectivity cables can become corrupted.
To resolve this, uninstall and re-install Nokia PC Suite and Nokia Software Updater:
- In your PC’s Control Panel, go to Add/Remove programs
- Uninstall Nokia Suite (if there are more than one entries uninstall all of them)
- Go to www.nokia.com/support to download and install the latest version of Nokia Suite
I am not able to use Nokia Suite on any PC and my device does not support updates directly over the air. Is there an alternative way to update my device's software?
If you are not able to use Nokia Software Updater, you can visit your nearest authorized Nokia Care Point to have your software updated. Note that this may incur a charge. Locations for Nokia Care Points globally are available at the support page for your country, for details please visit http://www.nokia.com/global/support/locations/

Nokia considers changelogs to be confidential information and does not release them to the public.
If you see any such information, it is leaked information and should therefore be treated with circumspection.

TOP questions for Eseries devices - start here

My Eseries device is not functioning properly.
Always make sure that you have the latest software version in your Nokia device. You can update the software yourself using Nokia Software Updater, Nokia's free PC software. Learn more and download Nokia Software Updater at
www.europe.nokia.com/softwareupdate
If you still experience problems, you can try if formatting your Eseries device helps. Format the device by dialling *#7370#. The device will request a security code, the default code is 12345 unless you have changed it.
Note that formatting will delete all user data from the device memory so always make a back-up to a memory card or use Nokia PC Suite.
If you think your Nokia device needs repair, go to www.europe.nokia.com/repair to find authorized Nokia Care Points globally.

Very strange - or perhaps not that strange but just another issue.... I tried the Hard Reset code again at this time it worked!!! I'm now re-entering my details and remembering what I didn't back up But if it fixes my issues it will be worth it.
FYI from another fine post I found:
FOR SOFT-RESET:
- at Standby Screen type-in => *#7780#
It will ask for “Restore all phone settings-phone’ll restart….”
Then it asks for security code enter factory default => 12345
FOR HARD-RESET:
- at Standby Screen type-in => *#7370#
It will ask for “Restore all phone settings-phone’ll restart….”
Then it asks for security code enter factory default => 12345
FOR FLASHING- TOTAL RESTORE: (Do this if your phone does not boot up)
1) Remove the battery, and then wait for about 20 min or so before putting it back
2) Press and hold these three keys together -Green dial key, Star key[*], Three key [3]
3) switch ON the phone.
4) Do not let go the three keys until you see the WELCOME screen displayed and just let it complete the boot process
if this doesnt help contact Nokia Care Point-> http://europe.nokia.com/A4388379

How do I know when there is new software available for my Nokia device?
There are several ways to be notified about new sw versions for each Nokia device:
1) Use Nokia Ovi Suite
When you connect your device to a PC which is running Nokia Ovi Suite, you can check the available updates and install them in Software Updates menu of Ovi Suite.
2) Check online
You can easily check the latest available version on the
Nokia Software Update website.
3) Update over-the-air
Many devices allow you to check and install the software updates directly over-the-air by using 3G/GPRS or WLAN data connection. Go to SW Update menu where you can check the available updates and install them. Alternatively, you can type in the command *#0000# and select Options > Check for updates.
Currently Nokia does not publish the expected release dates for new software versions.
What has been updated in each new software version?
Main updates are published on the
Nokia Software Update website.
How can I make my Nokia device's battery last longer?
Here are some of the most common tips. Note that these tips do not apply to all Nokia device models:
Only enable Bluetooth and WLAN when you need them.
Set GPRS connection to "When needed".
Do not leave applications running unnecessarily in the background, e.g. applications which are using GPS or data connection (consuming the battery power).
If using Maps, preload the map data to your device to avoid the downloading of the map data when Maps application is in use.
Set the backlight time-out value to turn off the backlight when the device is not used.
Turn off the notification lights.
What to do if I get the error message "Memory full. Delete or move some data from C: Phone memory"
The device memory is low in this case and you should try to free some memory on your C: drive. Use File Mgr. application to view the contents of the C: phone memory. To get more free space on C: drive, check the following:
Clear the web browser cache to release memory used by the cache.
Move your own files stored on C: drive to memory card or mass memory (if your device has an internal mass memory).
Check that the captured photos are stored on memory card or mass memory, not on C: drive.
Remove applications which are installed in C: phone memory if they are not used, or install them to mass memory if supported by the application
The calendar entries, contacts and notes reside in the phone memory. Remove the objects which are not needed.
If using Nokia N97 device, select Menu > Applications > SW Update and install Memory reorganiser if it is listed in the available updates. Run the program by selecting Menu > Applications > Reorganiser, this will move some of the applications from C: phone memory to E: mass memory.
