I have Nokia Messiging installed on my e71x and it's been working fine until about a month ago. I can no longer get my Gmail account at all. When I try adding the account it takes me through all the steps but at the end of it there is no Gmail Icon and it isn't in the settings page either. Why doesn't Gmail work anymore?
I have purchased nokia E71x in india from market.its unlocked.but whn i inserted my network chip inside it , no network has been dispalyed in phone screen.when i tried to call its shows connection erroe.can please anyone tell me how can i use my phone in india with my service provider.
My Nokia e71x died, I had a ton of pictures on my SD card. The USB slot also broke so thats not an option to plug into the PC. I was wondering if I plugged my old SD card into a new Nokia E6, would it read my pictures and files? are the operating systems compataible to do that?
I have an E71X. Sent Ovi Store Application to my phone downloaded and installed without error message. However when I go to applications folder on my phone Ovi Store icon is nowhere to be found. Does anyone have any helpful information?
My wife's E71x stopped receivng text messages, nor can she send them. And the phone will not make phone calls or recived them either. But she is able to surf the web and check hotmail. She has powered off her device and removed the battery but it still does not work.
I have a Nokia 5800. I just upgraded today to the last version of the phone and maps. I have installed the ovi suite. All latest versions. From the Ovi I got the maps of Germany. Going to the Maps application I can see the maps, zooming in, out... looking for a location.
I want to work offline so in the options i have chosen only "Integrated GSP" (No a-GPS). But the problem I'm having is that the phone doesn't connect via the GPS antenna, the satellite icon is crossed out, the first bar of the signal yellow blinking and if i want to make a route to any location it says "waiting for GPS". I've been searching in the forum but i couldn't go further this point. It seems as i have the satellite signal deactivated.
Anyone know is it possible to connect an external antenna to the CK-100 Car Kit? and if so, is there a socket on the unit into which it can be plugged?
I've got a N97 mini and notice that I keep losing the signal. I can be sat there, the phone won't move and yet I'll go from 4 bars to virtually one/none at all. I had a similar problem with another N series and apparently it was to do with the internal antenna.......I'm sure its not the network as was on 3 before changing over to O2 and had same issues ! Also does anyone know if the CR 116 will fit the mini as well ?
I was testing the Ovi Maps and found that the horizontal screen (Landscape) is better to navigate than the vertical (Portrait) position What is intriguing me is that my 5230 only switch from portrait to Landscape when turned to the left, and in this case the GPS antenna would be located in lower place of the unit, not at the top, where it should be. Question: Wy 5230 do change the screen from portrait to Landscape only when switching to the left and not to the right? How I can make this to works correctly, so that the GPS antenna is looking to the sky and not to the floor in the landscape position?
Dropped the phone. Have now discovered the power button is stuck down. Phone stays on, but battery is depleting quickly.Pushing down on the button does nothing. How do I unstick the power button?
my nokia e71x recently started giving me a very static-y signal when making or receiving calls. my voice apparently sounds fine to whoever i'm talking to but what i hear in the earpiece is full of static, as if the signal is very weak. this is happening no matter where i am (even in places where i know the signal is strong). i'm in new york city. the speaker appears to be ok when doing other things, e.g. watching video clips on Internet. it's just phone calls that sound **bleep**.this just started in the last few days. it's possible the phone was exposed to heat, sand and (maybe) water as we were recently on vacation, but other than the bad sound everything works and looks fine.my contract is about up so i may just replace it anyway, but i'd like to know if this is fixable. i tried removing the battery and sim card, making sure all were clean and dry and putting them back.
Does anyone PLEASE have a solution to UNDO an "erase all entries" on my E71X Calendar? I have lost all my info for my business. I have not exited from the Calendar or shut the phone off.
I have an E71x. It has a BUNCH of issues, but my main problem now is I was saving my text messages to my installed memory card. The card became full. I took the card out to get some audio files and other stuff off it to make more room. Well, at some point the phone said the memory card was missing and it would use the internal memory. Now I can't get it to use the memory card again. I see no way to put it back to that. I think the only option I got was to "Copy" messages to the memory card. But I don't want to do that.
I need to save as much stuff as I can off the phone, then reset or restore the phone to the factory settings, or just re-install everything. (this Symbian OS and Nokias poor support of it are for the birds...)But, how do I get the phone to save messages to my memory card again?
I am having problems with gprs in my e71x. It used to work fine earlier but now when on using the web browser it just shows wifi under the internet destinations.I have gprs configured as an accesspoint inside internet destination and it worked great earlier but now for some reason it is no more visible to any apps.I tried restoring the phone to factory settings, reformatted it and even reflashed the 3.78 firmware but couldn't fix the problem.
Yes, I know there are plenty of threads on this already, I just wanna do a quick straw poll to get a sense of whether this is a design or manufacturing/batch fault.I can replicate the left handed signal drop issue on the iPhone 4, and disabling 3g does help alleviate the issue. I'm in the UK on o2, so far no dropped calls, although I don't ever recall having dropped calls at all.Given how this seems to be a pretty hardware serious fault, I may march into the Apple store and DEMAND a free bumper in the interim.
I've had the iP4 since the launch day and yes I have seen the bars drop but haven't dropped a darn call yet. I'm on the phone for the better part of each day and I, like Mr. Jobs, see this as a NON ISSUE. It's just like the old story "Dr. my arm hurts when I position it like this" Dr: "Well don't do that" " Honestly, the news, media and Apple haters have taken this story and misconstrued the hell out of it. Whenever any company sells a million of anything, there are going to be some issues with a small % of the devices. That's a given. The problem nowadays, is that the first "I want some media love-whore attention jerk" will begin to whine, tip news outlets and complain on every message bored around. I've TRIED to drop a call by using a Samurai Death Grip and it just wouldn't happen. Yes, the bars fall but it's not hurting reception or the phones performance. Anywho, to those who have been weary about picking up and iP4 because of this nonsense please don't hesitate it's seriously not that bad.
I recently discovered the chrome inlay surrounding the camera pops off and under it is a port for an external antenna. I go camping every now and then at a place not too far from home where unless I'm in a field, the service isn't strong enough to hold a call. Though texting is fairly reliable. Would an External Antenna be substantially helpful? Would it boost my Data signal as well? It would be great to use the Dun hack when camping.
I've been trying to find a decent external antenna which I can use on my Env Touch for those times when I have a faint signal but not enough to actually hold a call or send a text. I've been looking on eBay and other places but its hard to find one with a direct CRC9 connector. Any recommendations?
Just curious, if there are any major problems people are having with their iPhones at all? I'm tempted to get one but what's holding me back is the antenna issue right now, but I was also curious if there were any other problems people were having?
So since I have been having the reception antenna issues I thought I would make an appointment and stop in to the Apple store today. I told the guy all my issues and he said we can either replace it or give you a bumper and see if it helps. I thought it would be a good idea if I started fresh with a new phone. He went in back and came out with a box that was NOT the nice small iPhone 4 retail box.
It was plastic looking like one of those small hardware screwdriver boxes with all the little bits. He opened the box and in it was an iPhone 4 surrounded in black foam and the phone was wrapped in a little bag. My first thought was this has to be a refurbished or one someone brought back that was having a different problem. He said "How could it be refurbished? The phone just came out." I didn't believe him cause he has a odd smirk on his face when he said it.....
Do you think that Apple made a calculated risk with it's new antenna design? Let's take the 3G/3GS.....the antenna is on the inside of the phone behind essentially an outer plastic shell. So a naked iPhone 3GS the antenna signal goes through 1 layer (the plastic back).
Do you think Apple had enough research and statistics to show that the majority of users put an iPhone in some sort of case, whether that case is plastic or silicone? So now on a 3GS, the antenna has to go through the plastic back, then a plastic/silicone case....now it's going through 2 layers. Do you think they determined that this combo caused a lower/weaker signal?
Now the iPhone 4....antenna on the outside. Do you think Apple took a calculated risk in knowing that most people put it in a case anyway (heck even Steve in one of his emails suggested using a case) and the fact they came out with the bumper....that they knew since most people would put a case on it....that the antenna being on the outside would provide a stronger signal?
Yes, the people who choose to go caseless with their phones are more easily affected by the issue, but since that may be the minority of users, Apple is ok with saying "Hold it differently"? We all know Apple does things based on what they "think" the majority of users will do....ie: no firewire on low end Macbooks.I don't know anything about antenna signals, so I'm just guessing here.....but if an antenna's signal is degraded behind each layer of plastic etc, then by moving the antenna outside, Apple is giving it a better chance at getting a stronger signal, even though there is a side effect of direct contact with skin that can cause the signal to degrade significantly.
Tests I would like to see are the difference in signal strength in a 3GS with the back on and the back off.
I've been looking around and I'm not really finding too much information.First of all, I need to know the dB Gain of the internal 1900MHz antenna, which is just a piece of aluminum curved around a few times. Second of all, I need to know what the external antenna plug is called. It kind of looks like MMCX, or MCX, or maybe MC-Card... Although I can not be sure unless I order these connectors to test out.
I know I can get the Wilson external antenna adapter but I think it is too big for what I need. I'd like to get something I can mount on the board permanently and just add an external 3-7 dB Gain omni-directional antenna for travel usage, or connect a 15+ dB Gain outdoor directional antenna when being used inside. Pictures below are 1, antenna connectors, and 2, screw on SMA 3-7 dB Gain antenna for use while traveling. Added a 2 pics of the jack on the Mogul for the external antenna, first is not a good quality pic though.
How good is the wifi antenna on the Eris? Comparable to a decent laptop?I've never had a phone with wifi before but I would want a phone that can get reception where my laptop does. Sometimes I use these devices pretty far from the AP with low signal strength.
Where is the phone antenna of the Xperia Ray located? My best guess is that it is located below the battery (not under), beside the speaker at the back.
The antenna in the E71 model is situated in the bottom of the keypad, next to the microphone. I generally handle the phone in the left hand while I work on the other things with the right hand. Actually, except while typing something on the phone, most of the time it's in my left hand, with the antenna behind the palm (or the palm behind the antenna). Do you think it causes some health or reception issues? The SAR emission from this model is already more than double of most other models.
So far, I've not noticed the signal strength dwindling with my normal handling of the phone. The call quality is the best I've ever experienced in any other brand. The voice is clear, crisp, and very real. My concern is, then, with the effect of constantly using the phone for web browsing or for the calls on the human body. Will it adversely impact me or my hand?
Don't you think the antennas should always be on the top (but on the backside to reduce their impact near the head while talking)? Why do people come up with the new ideas that make little sense? And then, how many of us get to know where the antenna in any new phone model is? If the position is a fixed one, at least everyone will know how to hold the phone right.
