Nokia :: 5800 V40 - Homescreen Contacts Popup Appears
Jan 15, 2010
I have recently updated my 5800 to the long-awaited v40 firmware and so far it's great, but I've got one serious issue with it. In the previous firmware, the contacts on the homescreen used the default number when I pressed the telephone icon, but now in the new firmware when I select a homescreen contact and press the call icon, a popup appears asking me which number I'd like to call. This is slightly strange, seeing as the same contact selected from the Contacts Book correctly uses the default number without asking. I have tried removing the default number settings and setting it again, and also removing contacts from the homescreen and adding them again, but neither worked. It's pretty annoying, because having certain contacts on the homescreen is meant, at least in my opionion, to speed things up, like speed dial, but now it requires an additional click before the call is made... So, anybody know how to make the HS contacts use default numbers?

After upgrading to v40, I've compared the new homescreen to the old homescreen and to the old homescreen with v21-31, these are my findings.
- The old homescreen on v40 does not have the email notification that Nokia introduced a short while ago and which was obviously VERY well recieved globally.
- The new homescreen on v40 has kinetic scrolling contacts which is, um, cute. It has the ability to control the music player (What I found to be very buggy, crashing it by simply pressing 'forward' when it's playing a folder with 1 song).
- The new homescreen on v40 does not have calendar and tasks, probably for the space the new music player-thing takes. This was my FAVORITE thing on the homescreen and I am sure I'm not alone.
I truly hope Nokia addresses these issues by either returning the email notifications to the old homescreen or somehow allowing to see the calendar and tasks on the new homescreen. Or both.

To all you guys that isnt satisfied with the Nokia 5800 homescreen and stuff. Spb Software has released SPB Mobile Shell for Symbian and it is really amazing. Completely changes the phone and makes it more flexibel with widgets on the homescreen. Check it out

This has been awaited a long time by the nokia 5800 xm users that in the next firware update nokia provides us with a n97 type screen, may be with lesser widgets but something similar to that, and a symbian^3 update though payable should also be provided to tube users.

I've found the Email Notification on the homescreen very useful but now there is only a little gap between the Search button and the Calendar events. Disabling or enabling this option doesn't change anything whatsoever. I like new features but I prefer having no option rather than being teased by a half-arsed setting.

I have a problem with maps upload to my mobile, whenever I start Map Loader I see a message: You have connected at least one phone (Soft) without a Maps drive. Either you are using an old Map version - .. - or have never started your Maps application. I use USB PC-Suite mode, I have had run Maps application on my phone before I try to connect Map Loader, the Maps version installed on the phone is v3.03 10wk01 b05 - so that's obviously not a reason! Now
I can't install new maps anymore - I just can click this error window away and choose some maps, they would be downloaded from the Internet, but they would not appear on my mobile! With a previous version of the map loader (don't know the version number any more, and previous maps version on the phone, I also need a link to Maps Updater due the Nokia site malfunction - couldn't find this software anymore.

I recently got an x6 16gb model, and I was wondering. I've seen loads of pics of the home screen, with the contacts bar and the contacts being shown on the home screen. Like this for example: On my screen though, it just shows the 'Add contact' widget. How do I get my contacts onto the homescreen?

the contacts icon and dialer on the homescreen does not work and neither will the green call button from the homescreen. this makes life incredibly difficult as i have to go to contacts within the menu everytime i want to make a call. Can someone please tell me what i've done wrong? or is it a fault with the phone?

have 5530 model. contacts and dialer icon on homescreen does not work nor green call button. Only way of calling is going thru contacts within the menu and if it is not there then you have to set it up which is extremely long and laborious! I have updated software and reset factory settings to no avail phone is only 2 months old!

I own a 5800 ExpressMusic and today I've upgraded my firmware version to latest. The problem I will explain still is not resolved.
1- Change the ringing tone to some mp3
2- Edit a contact to have a name like
3- Let that contact call you
The phone rings with the default tone (not the mp3 it was set to). The only way I found to correct it is to revert to more humanly names in contact list. This will be more annoying for people who save their friends with IM nicknames that contain lots of special characters.

I have a problem with the Contacts on my Phone, I had backed up all my Contacts on a Memory Card, and restored it on my 5800. However when now am trying to backup my 5800 through Nokia PC Suite or OVI Suite, Out of 726 Contacts, only 250 get backed up, the others don't.. How do I resolve this issue...?

The contacts stored on my phone's memory are not being displayed. If I change the "Contacts to display" option to phone memory and sim memory, or sim memory alone for that matter, it displays all the contacts stored on my sim, however no contacts are displayed when I choose phone memory alone. I have tried copying all my contacts from sim back to the phone and still nothing. It's weird because when I do a memory details check on my phone's memory, it's saying that there are 83 contacts stored. Even if I try to manually add a new contact to the phone memory, it STILL is not showing up in my contacts list. I have had this phone about 5 months now and this problem only occurred about a week ago, before that everything was working just fine.

I had assigned a photo to one of the persons in my contacts. It worked perfectly. After some time I decided to delete this and not to have any other photo assigned to this person, so deleted the same thru' Options-->Image--.Remove( in contacts). Still when I received or made a call to this no. the photo got displayed. Then I deleted this photo from the images folder on phone all together (it was in phone memory). Now there was no photo display during receiving - making calls to that particular person. After this I once again copied the same photo to its original Images folder. It again gets displayed during calls.. Though there is no thumbnail display against the person in contacts..

my phone fell down and the touchscreen is broken. I figured out, that the contacts are not saved on my sim-card nor on the sd-card, but internally. I want to sync it with nokia suite, but I need to activate the connection with the phone first, as I suppose. Is there another way to, maybe bypass the connection-selection-screen on the phone or automatically setting up a connection?

To sync my contacts takes about 5-10 minutes and then sometimes fails anyway.
Why is taking so long to sync what must only be a few KB of data? I have less than 100 contacts in there.
It's a joke...and another reason I'm never buying another Nokia again as long as I live.

I have a very large contact list I want to import to my new express music 5800. I read the fine manual, but don't see how to switch the saving of contacts to the memory card so that I have more than the 40 MB currently available on the phone's memory.

5.1 appears to have broken the relationship function in contacts on the iPhone 4s. You no long have "relationships" as a field to add to the contact. I'm limited to 3 only. Worked in 5.0.

I've set up Mail for Exchange with my Gmail account and, while it does seem to get emails, it also keeps poping up the box asking me to enter the password, which I have obviously entered before and it is remembered. Half the time I unlock the phone, the popup is there.

Each time I turn on my N8, I get a popup "System error" and an "OK" button; nothing else.Is there some sort of log, where I could find out what sort of System error I'm dealing with?Incidentally, if I get nothing else out of this discussion, could you change that "OK" button to "Bummer", please.It most definitely is not "OK"... and at least I could get a smile out of a "Bummer" button.
