Upgrading Qt in S60v5 (nokia 5230)

Hi all, I want to install WikiOnBoard (from the Ovi store) which apparently needs Qt 4.7.3. Having googled a bit, it seems that Qt is a minefield/nightmare of incompatibility and poor documentation. I'm hoping that someone here can shed some light.
The phone in question is a Nokia 5230, firmware vers 50, with an older version of Qt (v4.06) installed. This was originally installed manually following instructions and download links from Nokia Beta Labs when installing the Nokia Wellness App. SInce my phone is PAYG, I'd prefer to avoid a data download (Nokias preferred method of installing Qt, it seems).
So, my questions:
1) Is it possible to install Qt 4.7.3 to a S60v5 device? Some sites seem to suggest that it is incompatible.
2) Is it possible to manually download and install the Qt 4.7.3 components, and if so where from?
3) Having once installed, is it possible to uninstall Qt 4.7.3 from a S60v5 device? Again, some sites suggest you can't.
4) Will installing Qt 4.7.3 break previously installed Qt Apps?
Nokia sure do like to make it hard to install stuff... Anyway, I'de appreciate any help or advice that people can offer. I've searched the site, but been unable to find any coherent answers. Thanks

google it wid versions typed.either frm pc or phone.i ve done it.

Firmware upgrade Nokia 5230 - SLOW device!

I see that the device 5233 had an firmware upgrade availibe from 12.1.089 to 12.1.092. This upgrade is now not availible for the nokia 5230. This device is much slower than the 5233 and 5800.
Is there a way to make this upgrade also soon availible for the nokia 5230? Because this device has now only the firmware version 12.1.089

try to uninstall them and re-install on memory card not phone memory
it's the reason if you installed these apps on phone memory

Nokia 5230 - Wish List for Next Firmware Upgrade

heya guys,
I'm using Nokia 5230 with the latest firmware, V 12.0.089.
The following are my wish list for the next firmware upgrade:-
1. Messaging > Sent Items: Please include short cut icons to Forward, Create New and Delete as in Inbox.
2. Log > Recent calls: Unnecessary option for Call > Voice Call.
3. Settings > Personal > Themes > Call image > Theme image: A bug with certain 3rd party theme (e.g. JustBlack - 5th theme). During lock mode, screen is totally blank during calls & alarms.
4. Settings > Application mgr. > Installed apps.: Too much application will cause an error of "Application Manager Memory full" and auto exit when selecting "Option". During error, phone memory is around 25MB, Memory Card is around 2.5GB/4GB.
5. Ovi Map > Drive / Walk > Set Destination: Please do an icon based UI for History, Favourite, Search & From Map. The list is to small to click on to (when driving) :-)
6. Organize > Please include multiple selections. E.g. Mark/Unmark > Mark / Mark All. Easy to move multiple applications at once to any folder.
That's all for now i guess. By the way, Nokia rocks!!
Thanks in advanced.

Please integrate swype for messaging in the next firmware of 5230. Also kinetic scrolling for messages and contacts. If possible the homescreen of symbian^3.

Nokia 5230 and Garmin Mobile XT

Hi !
I have decided to install Garmin Mobile on my Nokia 5230. I have asked the official Garmin support for informations about Garmin Mobile and Symbiaa S60 v5. They answered that the last version of Garmin Mobile is v5.00.60 and in theory it should almost certain work with S60v5 operating system (the version v5.00.50 should too), but the product is discontinued so they are not 100% sure. They sent me a list where I can still buy Garmin Mobile but I am not sure to spend 100€ because I'm not totaly sure if this will work with Nokia 5230. There's lots of info about Garmin v5.00.40 and v5.00.50 working on Nokia 5800 but no info about Nokia 5230.
Is there any Nokia 5230 user on this forum with Garmin Mobile installed? If yes which version of Garmin Mobile do you have?
Regards;

Hi majidX
Using v5.00.50s60.9 on 5230 in landscape mode, presumably sensor settings no issues with other applications?

Nokia 5230 v40.0.003 - Contacts Bar Missing

Hi there, thanks for reading.
I have a problem with my Nokia 5230. I've had my phone about 9 months, and I've been very happy with it. Today I finally got round to installing the v40.0.003 firmware update.
All went well except...
Ovi Maps not updating (which I can live with)
The contact bar disappearing from the home screen (which I can't)
Searching the net found a few people with the same problem, but no solutions. I've seen mention of the appearance of the contact bar 'changing' but no definition of what this change actually is.
Here's what I've tried so far:
I checked the home-screen settings, it's still on the contacts bar theme and contacts bar is checked on the relevant screen.
I've tried changing to another theme and back, both with and without restarting the phone.
I've tried reinstalling the new firmware.
I've tried a soft reset
I've tried a hard reset
I've even tried a hard reset without the sd card followed by a re-flash.
I restored the full backup from before the update, which put most things back the way they were before the resets, but the contacts bar is still missing.
It's a feature of the phone I use a lot so I'm not happy about losing it.
If anyone can offer suggestions as to what I might have missed, I'd appreciate it. Just hope I'm not S.O.L until the next firmware update. (If it's relevant, I'm on Orange PAYG, and have access to my Fiancé's 5230 which is still on 20.0.005)
Thanks

Yes, the Menu>settings>personal>home screen>home screen theme is set to contacts bar
in Menu>settings>personal>home screen>home screen both contacts bar and shortcuts boxes are checked.
Prior to v40 I had a total of 5 contacts stored on the contacts bar and have been using it ever since i got the phone last year.
I wish it was as simple as needing to turn it on, but I did undertake basic troubleshooting (and more) before starting this thread as my first post shows.
I'm not the only one with this problem on orange either (x6 but same symptom)
/t5/Xseries/x6-contacts-bar-gone-software-prob/m-p/873775/highlight/true#M7504
Orange include their own fugly homescreen theme in their custom firmware so probably don't care if they break the other ones.
My Fiancé has a 5230 as well, she doesn't use the contact bar (so wouldn't care if it went AWOL) so I might upgrade her firmware as well to see if the same thing happens.

Nokia 5230 - US Version Unlocked

Hello All,
I recently purchased a Nokia 5230 Unlocked US version. I am having problems with dropping calls! I am on the AT&T GSM/WCDMA Network. When I got the phone, I upgraded the firmwares, ran all the updates etc. Seemed good for several days then I started to drop calls or get errors when trying to dial out... Network Busy/Connection Errors ETC. So I tried a new sim card... Seemed maybe to help a bit but still having issues. I think the issue maybe related to other issues Ive been reading up on other unlocked nokia devices... A firmware upgrade is needed for switching between GSM/WCDMA/HSPA.
Is there anything else I can try before I give up and send this back to Amazon? Im deeply saddened my e71x NEVER DROPPED calls on AT&T.
The Nokia 800# Support is a total joke. No Help at all. This is also very sad. This is my 6th Nokia phone.

bump!

Nokia 5230 - cant update to v20.0.005

Just bought a Nokia 5230 from Argos. It had v11.0.079 firmware installed. I've tried updating the firmware to v20.0.005. I used the *#0000# OTA method. However, the latest firmware that it found was v12.0.089 so I installed it. I've tried again to get v20.0.005 but it says I have the latest firmware.
I'm on a Vodafone contract that I've been on for the last 5-6 years. I have it at half price so never get a phone upgrade so I always just buy a new phone every couple of years or so. I'm on such a good tariff that I prefer to keep it that way.
Any ideas why I can't get the v20.0.005 firmware? I haven't tried it via the PC yet as I dont have the required cable (where can I get one of these?).
Thanks

Firmware is tied to product code not phone model .
In your case it will be Vodaphone at fault .

Nokia 5230 Firmware 20.x.x.x Issues

I am currently in possession of a Nokia 5230 purchased on Jan 2010 loaded with firmware 11.0.079 . I recently came across a slew of articles regarding the restarting defect caused when ugrading to firmware 20.x.x.x .
(/t5/Nseries-and-S60-Smartphones/Nokia-5230-RESTARTING-DEFECT/m-p/635260)
As of now I have no problems whatsoever in using my phone (except using the mailbox though) and my phone never restarts. Is it advisable for me to upgrade to the new firmware or abstain away from doing so. And as mentioned by other users Nokia Support dosen't seem to be very helpful in this regard.
If anybody has any idea over this issue please advice.

i m currently using 5230 with v20.x.x, (came with v12.x.x) and i never had the "restart defect" on v20.x.x, actually its a lot better/improved then v12.x.x. in many areas.
from my experience, i would recommend you to update to v20.x.x. but decision is yours.

I want to change my symbian nokia 5230 to belle

i want to change my symbian nokia 5230 to belle i want to try something new

Hi kunal12345,
Welcome to the Forum.
Unfortunately, you won't be able to upgrade your 5230 with Symbian Belle. Only the Symbian ^3 can be updated with Symbian Belle and your phone being a S60 it's not possible.

I have music in my memorycard, but my Nokia 5230 d...

I've just bought new Nokia 5230, my earlier phone was Nokia 5200. I had bought memorycard for the 5200, and I had some music in it. Now i put the memorycard to the 5230, but the music doesn't appear to the player. I don't get this, I like to listen music and all I want is to get the music to the player.
Anyone knows what helps? Please?

It could be that the file structures in the card are not recognized by the OS of the 5230.
The 5200 had a basic s40 operating system, while the 5230 has an s60v5 symbian operating system. It would likely be the case. You need to format the card on the 5230 first and then put the pictures and music into the correct folders (copy them over to your PC before formatting).

Installation 'General Error' Nokia 5230

I cannot install the latest Ovi Maps on my Nokia 5230 as each time the installation fails with 'General Error' as the message. On clicking the blue i-button it merely says the error has occurred and instructs to try to install again. I have tried repeatedly.
The phone memory shows 12mb free.
Can anyone tell me what to do to achieve installation please?

Factory settings reset - Type *#7780# and the phone's lock code (Nokia default lock code is 12345). This reset restores the phone's original settings.
Soft reset/reformat - Type *#7370# and the phone's lock code.
Warning!Soft reset wipes your C drive/phone memory!
Hard reset - Switch the phone off. Press and hold three keys together, the green key, the * key and the number '3'. While you are holding these keys, switch the phone on. Don't release these three keys before you see the NOKIA logo.
Warning! Hard reset (as soft reset does) wipes the C (phone memory) drive.
Hard reset for 5800; Press and hold green + red + multimedia button and turn the phone on at the same time.
Hard reset for N97; Press shift + space + delete and turn the phone on at the same time. Don't let the three keys before you see the NOKIA logo.
Hard reset for other S60v5 phones; press green + red + camera key and turn the phone on at the same time.

I have created a backup from my Nokia 5230 some time ago using Nokia Suite, but now the program doesn't recognize the phone, but the pc does. and I haave accepted the Ovi Suite Mode in the phone.

@Louropt
As farby points out if you have updated Nokia Suite it might need to establish conection again but nothing fundamentally wrong with 5230 connectivity as per screenshots:
