Unusual problem with N95

Hello guys, as title says i have an unusual problem with my Nokia n95. Friend gave me few days ago and I wanted to update software at it, i did it few HRs ago (from 21.x to 31.0.017) and now I have problem. The thing is from when i did the update the phone keep lighting camera and up-down buttons from some time intervals( i'm not sure how much). I even did Initial restart and i've re-installed software also.. Any idea how to fix this ?
Thanks anyway!

Yeah thats what i did last, for now it's not lighting every time just when I ( for example enter camera, make photo/zoom and close application,after that i'ts lighting for few minuts), it's not about mask, I've tested it already with not mask ..
It never happened before I updated the device..

Unusual problem with NumPad

I have quite an unusual problem with my iMac and I'm hoping someone has the answer. I will do my best to explain what's going on.
I started using a new program called Blender, which is an open source 3D modeling suite. In it, there are hotkeys which are required to function the program, like, CONTROL + NUMPAD 1, 2, 3 and so on...
I have a full size keyboard with NUMPAD, so this is not a problem for me. However...
When I attempt to press CONTROL + NUMPAD 1 (for example), it does not trigger the correct function in Blender. Instead, it switches SPACES to the corresponding SPACE. So, if I press CONTROL + NUMPAD 3, it displays my THIRD SPACE.
This seemed simple enough to fix. I opened System Preferences, Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts and changed the hotkeys for SPACES to COMMAND, rather than CONTROL. However, this did not fix the problem entirely. Even though it managed to disable my top row of numbers as hotkeys for switching spaces, it did NOT change the NUMPAD functionality. If I hit CONTROL + NUMPAD 3, it STILL switched to my third space, despite me altering the hotkey to be COMMAND + #. It continues...
I didn't really need this functionality from SPACES so I decided to try disabling it altogether. Once again, I opened System Preferences, Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts but THIS time, I unchecked "Switch to Desktop 1,2,3,4" hotkeys so as to disable the funtionality entirely. Despite this, it STILL did not work. I was STILL able to press CONTROL + NUMPAD #, and switch to the corresponding SPACE. I restarted OS X hoping something might change but it did not. I CANNOT disable this functionality and it is hijacking the ability to operate the Blender program.
The problem gets stranger...
I ask my Fiance, who has an identical iMac AND keyboard, running OS X Lion just as I am to attempt to perform similar actions. She was NOT able to switch SPACES by pressing CONTROL + NUMPAD #. Ironically, under HER system preferences, the keyboard shortcuts were all enabled and defaulted to CONTROL + #, yet she could not duplicate my problem on her iMac. As you can imagine, I was getting quite confused at this point and very frustrated. We tried switching keyboards. Same thing. On my iMac, I cannot disable the SPACES hotkey CONTROL + NUMPAD # and on my Fiance's iMac, she can not ENABLE it.
In summary, whenever I press CONTROL + NUMPAD #, OS X switches to the corresponding SPACE. I've tried disabling the shortcuts under System Preferences but the problem persists. My Fiance has the exacty OPPOSITE problem and cannot enable the functionality. It's not the keyboard and we're running identical iMacs running OS X Lion. Any help would be INCREDIBLY appreciated! Thanks!

As a matter of fact, I do have a solution, at least, one that one my laptop.
First, a couple of trouble shooting steps:
Create a new user a log as the new user. If the new user doesn't have they Control-Numpad issue, you are probably looking at a user preferences issue.
Start in safe mode (hold shift while booting). Any number of extensions may map these keys for you (as a favor, of course)
That said, I suspect that this is a user preferences issue; such as it was for me.
The solution is to remove the symbolichotkeys property list file; it should be regenerated cleanly when you next log in. The two files you need to remove are:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist.lockfile
I always suggest having a system backup before fiddling, and I moved the files to my desktop temporarily (just in case!) before rebooting, testing, and finally deleting them.
Here is some information on the files:

Let me know if that solves your problem; it was a bear to track down.

I'm having an unusual problem with my iphone 4S. When I'm making a call, it suddenly sounds like my call has been invaded by aliens! Why is it doing this? I'm also having problems sending texts. Sometimes it sends sometimes it doesn't.

Could be an issue with your Carrier and/or location...
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
Try a Reset...
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release the buttons...

Problem with N95 8Gb Gallery

I have a quite annoying problem with my N95 8Gb Gallery.
Since last week, when I open the gallery it appears a lot of system files that shouldn't be there instead of only showing my videos and photos. It makes the phone a lot slower and it crashes. It takes a lot of time to select any file.
Is it some kind of system trouble or have I messed up with something i shouldnt?
Thanks for the help and sorry about the writing mistakes

yes it is very odd!
Well I have tried to just loads 2 images from the laptop onto my mobile. I have tried doing a direct file transfer (mass media) and then also tried through Nokia PC suite-uploaded via the CD rom I was given.On both occasions this has been uncessful to view images from the gallery menu on the phone..crashes!
I think the photos are actually on the phone under the file manager folder I can find them stored here. However on opening the gallery to try and view these files, the phone freezes and I am unable to exit the menu -using the 'back' button have to press the red phone cancel button. Once out of the gallery folder and back to the main screen I can then no longer access and shortcut menus for about 3mins. Very frustrating. The most recent phone I have now, I got 2 days ago-I've not even plugged into my laptop, and when asking a friend to send me images via bluetooth I cannot open this either!! (it comes as a text format from bluetooth) and on opening the phone just freezes again. I try to save this when asked to mass memory and not phone memory.
I can take images on my 'phone camera' but again cannot view as unable to access the gallery-constantly freezes the phone.The images are not a large file just jpeg format for example 45KB another one I tried was much larger 1MB...
I still don't understand why this is happening all the time!!! Many thanks for your help.... (Orange are going to send me a new sim card to try) and see if this helps.

Problems with N95 and Co-pilot 7

I have an N95 and have installed co-pilot 7 onto it and have purchased traffic updates.
The traffic update has installed but I cannot get it to work on my phone-I am with Virgin pay as you go and was originally told that the software wouldn't work unless a number of ports were opened (In order to make Traffic work for you, you need to ask Virgin to open
up the following ports up: Port 80 and 9880) but Virgin do not have access to these ports-when i mentioned this I was told that something else was wrong but haven't been given any helpful advice-I was asked to re-format and re-install card which I have done.
I was wondering if anyone else had problems and if so how they resolved them-(especially if you are a Virgin Pay as you go customer!!!)
Thanks Steve

Sorry you are having problems with Co-pilot 7. As you are on Virgin Media Pay as you go, have you got Internet enabled on your account, and do you have efficient funds on your account to access Virgin online?
If you do have what's above, then it's seems like problems lies with access points via Connections settings. I don't believe Ports are the problems, but sadly, I can't help you much as I never had Virgin Media Simcard.
Besides, I'm also interested in purchasing Co-pilot 7 for my N95. May I ask you where you purchased yours from?

Problem with N95 Desktop after upgrade to 20.0.015

Hello,
I upgraded my phone's firmware to version 20.0.015 this morning. Before starting the update, I had backed up the phone's memory to my memory card. When the update was finished, everything worked fine until I decided to restore everything from backup, to ensure that I hadn't lost any of my settings/contacts/messages/etc. Ever since I did that, I have been having trouble with my phone's desktop. All of the things that are supposed to appear at the top are gone! ...there's no clock, no operator, no meter for the battery or signal! All I get where they used to be is a thick white/blank bar. So there's my wallpaper and a big white empty bar on top!
I have tried different skins, wallpapers, etc but they won't help. I have also tried going to "Settings> General> Personalisation> Standby Mode", but the option "Active standby apps." is missing... The only two options are "Active standby" (which does nothing -- throws me back to the desktop/standby) and "Shortcuts" (which is used to define the left and right selection keys)... so there's nothing I can do through the "Standby Mode" settings either! I have even tried reverting to "Factory settings", which again didn't fix the problem (though I have to say that when the phone restarted, I did see the things that go on top for a split second).
Does anyone have any idea on what I should do to fix this problem? I am starting to lose hope...
This is my device's version/model data:

Nokia N95 (07.01)Message Edited by radjenef on 28-Nov-200707:40 PM

Well, there's a work-around but you'll need to spend some time. To get all your data from the Memory card:
- Restore the phone from the Memory card (might break it, though)
- Use PC Suite to make a partial backup (Contacts, Notes, Calendar, Messages but NO phone-settings)
- Reset the phone to get rid of the broken top-bar
- Use PC Suite to restore the Contacts, Notes, etc.
This solution will take some time and it is possible that you cannot backup from the broken phone and/or restore to the newer firmware, but if you have no other options to get all your contacts back, then it might be worth a try.
Also note that messing with phone memory might corrupt the phone...

Two problems with N95.

Hi, Ive got two problems I need help with.
Ive been using an N95 for almost a year until I recently lost it. So I called up my network provider and they sent me a new one (covered by my insurance) but for some reason the signal strength is very weak and even when Im in my own home, the phone struggles to make a call and disconnects when I do get through. My last N95 signal was perfect and never had this problem even in the same location.
Also, my second problem is that when I turn the phone off or let the battery run out, when I turn it back on I have to re-enter the date & time.
Is there a solution to these problems as I cant be doing with sending it away again as I need the phone for work.
The only thing I did after opening the box was upgrade the firmware. Ive re-installed the firmware and it doesnt solve anything.

It sounds like they have sent you a reconditioned model that hasn't been correctly repaired.
You should take the issue up with the insurer.
If for some reason they refuse to help then you should take it to a nokia care point for repair.

3 problems with N95

1 cant get my yahoo gmail or hotmail accounts setup i do believe i have the correct settings but i just cant see to connect(this is via the message application screen) any one knows how to connect?
2 gps the N95 just doesnt pick up my satellite position even with coverage it still shows my position as being at home any way to get this running correctly?
3 cant seem to get my internet telephone working all the sip settings are correct to my knowledge ive registered with gizmo setup an account but my home wlan just wont connect no matter what i do anyone with any success with this can you allow me to know how to get it working

I suspect that the problem in vehicles is ensuring the GPS receiver has a good enough view of the sky. My Bluetooth GPS receiver has to be right at the front of the dash so that it only has glass above it.
To give the N95's receiver a similar view, I guess you'd have to have it in a holder that fixes to the windscreen - and does not cover the reception parts. I'm assuming those reception parts are on the back of the phone, otherwise you're never going to see the screen
I have my N80 in one of those holders that fits the air vent: clearly if I had an N95 on one of those, its GPS would have no chance.Message Edited by patc on 19-Apr-200711:03 AM

Problems with N95-1 Memory while using Web? Try Op...

Guys,
I just wanted to let you know that the new Opera Mini is absolutely, bar none, completely fantastic. I'm not sure how much memory it uses, but so far I've had no problems playing Mp3s, running my Gmail client, and using Opera all at the same time!
Not only that, but it renders web pages much better and quicker than the application built into the N95. I have replaced Web as my browser and am now using Opera Mini 4.0... If you haven't tried it, download it now on your N95. It is truly fantastic. I don't miss not being able to quickly go back without reloading the whole page, and the way it presents the entire page as a thumbnail with the ability to zoom in and out VERY QUICKLY on certain parts of the page make it as sharp as the Iphone browser.
The ONLY limitation is that you can't download files using it. This is when you'll have to open the link in WEB.. but whatever.
If you haven't already, give it a shot. This is pretty new software, and works wonderfully on the N95.
http://www.operamini.com/

I find opera mini really slow. It takes ages to open pages even on the wifi. How is yours? Is it fast at opening pages?
Its not who i am underneath. But what i do that defines me.
You are here for a reason Superman.

Unusual Problem with Yahoo and Apple Mail

I hope it doesn't turn out that the user is the thing that is "unusual."
Background:
Devices: MBP, iPad, iPhone, iMac
Mail accounts: Gmail, mobileme, Yahoo
MBP settings: uses "default ports", SSL, and user name and password - Advanced Tab: Port 993 and SSL
iPad/iPhone settings: SMTP server settings - grayed-out - with SSL checked and Port 465
As of last night, I found four messages that were stuck in my Sent box, with the spinning gear that would not stop. This only happens when using my Yahoo account, and it only happens when sent from my MPB. It is also only related to outbound messages.
Now for the part that has me perplexed. My password for Yahoo (web), is the same as the password on my MBP (Apple Mail). The passwords that I have on the iPhone and iPad, are the same for both, but they're different than the password for the previous two that I mentioned. When I changed the password on my MBP to match the one that's on my mobile devices, it came up with an error for an incorrect username or password.
How can I have different passwords and still have mail working? What am I missing? Also - more to the point of my issue, can anyone offer some suggestions as to why the outbound side of Apple Mail, is not working for Yahoo?
Thank you.

Sorry...it's too bad you can't delete questions... Problem solved - port number needed to be changed, and the password was deleted for some reason. I still don't know why I see two different passwords for the same account.... Thanks for looking.

Problems with N95

I brought an N95 less than 30 days ago and it has given me nothing but problems since.
The battery only lasts one day.
Randomly shuts down and starts up again.
Will not send MMS
Keeps charging over night and is not fully charged the next morning
loses reception for hours at a time.
I have been told that its nokia's policy to replace it if under 30 day. but i keep getting the run around by the nokis and the dealer that i brought it from dont want anything to do with the matter.
I am just wondering if anyone else has had problems.

You may just need a firmware update and possibly a new battery - but the N95 has a 2 year warranty from new so you should be ok. I would take it to a NSC and get it assessed by them for starters.

Gosh!.... You are such a lucky person. "2 years warranty". In asia we only get 1 year warranty and even thats not proper!
But Mine is Working Fine, Only failed on battery once when i overcharged it.. but rest is okay.

Various Problems With N95 - Please Help!!

Ok well I opened a new contract on the 2nd of June with Orange and got a Nokia N95.
Since the 2nd of June, I have had a total of 5 different N95's because of all the problems I am having. Got the current one last sunday and these are the problems so far:-
- Phone randomly turns off (only once or twice so far)
- Take about 2 hours to send a text, or is says "unable to send text message")
- My reception is full, then will automaticaly drop to zero bars
- People try and ring me, it goes straight to my answer phone and then i get a text saying I have a missed call (happened twice)
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do? This is driving me crazy.
I love the phone, but this is not what should be happening.
Like I said, this is now the fifth Nokia N95 I have had!
I'm not sure how I check which software I have, so if someone tells me where to look I will be able to tell you.
Please help!
Many thanks, Holly x

Be patient calm down
Like I said the updates are on MODEL NUMBER
the Orange version will be a few weeks behind because they test every thing them selves They are paranoid about phones that run on their network In the good old days they had to aprove every phone on their network so if you had a sim free you had to ask them if you could use it Thay dont do that now but all the phones they sell for their network are supposed to be full tested to be working OK Thats why not all models and phones are not on Orange
They dont seem so much bothered if the phone crashes but they dont want you to crash the network lol
As soon as they have fully tested V12 it will be released for the updtae Orange have one or two mods to the basic software IE there own themes, screen savers, orange world, and the omission of voip. They also have ALS (line 2)
I use Orange but since the early probs I manged to get the unbranded sim free for Orange. On my one ALS (line2 2 lines 2 numbers 1 sim card Business and personal) is working OK so there are only the screen savers and Orange world they need to test fully All I can say is just wait
A service centre may get the update earlier or try looking in Orange shops at their current stock press *#0000# on their newer stock to see if they get V12 then the service centre will have it for repairing those ones and it will soon be on the update site

Hi, thanks...using pcsuite installer and http://europe.nokia.com/A41107005, I installed Nokia Internet Radio Ver 1.02 and it works.
Previously I downloaded Nokia Internet Radio by using the App Manager on the phone. The first item in the App Manager is called 'Download Apps'. When you open it, it has 1 item called 'Nokia.com'. If you click on that it takes you to a Nokia site with 4 pages of apps. Nokia Internet Radio is on page 3. When you install it, it installs version 1.00. I did this several times and I'm fairly sure it said 1.00. This installed fine, but obviously didn't work and had the problem where the app closed when navigating the menus.
I also managed to install the same version 1.00 by using the google web browser on the phone to search for 'nokia internet radio'. The first couple of results, one from a symbian blog and another couple that directly went to Nokia pages also ended up at what I guess is the version 1.00 download.
To make it work, I opened the link you gave me, http://europe.nokia.com/A41107005, on my laptop, connected my phone and used the pcsuite installer. It downloaded ver 1.02 and works perfectly, J
