I have a Nokia 5530 Express Music and I am asking: can I connect to the internet with my PC, using the phone's WiFi modem? The PC Suite only allows connecting to the internet through 3G. I would be very pleased if someone answers me. Thank you.Message Edited by hellsgrimtyrant on 02-Jan-2010 12:16 PM
View 5 Repliesi have a nokia 5530 expressmusic with firmware 20.0.080.i connect with it to the internet via wifi. typically, the first page loads fine. however the second page often fails to load, especially if it is not a very tiny website. clicking on a button does typically also fails. note that this also happens when browsing the ovi store, which should clearly be fully compatible with the nokia browser.
some examples:
for the ovi store, this typically means i can get to the page of recommended applications, but i cannot download one. when i'm lucky, i can get up to the place where i have to enter my account info.
for the site "webmail.telenet.be"
the site loads, i can enter my nickname and password and sometimes get a warning about the fact that it is a secure site and the question to remember my password. after which i get the error "no gateway reply".
directly after the previous error, i browse to www.wikipedia.org (the phone asks me gain to connect to the wifi network)
the site loads well. i type in the word "radar" and select the search function. the phone does something (as i can now select to stop loading the page" ), but i do not get to the next page. "no gateway reply"
i tried Internet (via the dedicated icon provided by nokia): same issue: first page loads, pressing the search button gets a no gateway reply.
in general, i get 3 cases:
- the phone keeps showing the progress bar for such a long time that in the end, i run out of patience
- i get the error "no gateway reply"
- the progress bar appears and after some time disappears again without any resulting action
i checked the following things:
- wifi connection: reception is optimal. other wifi equipment has no problems at all (laptops, logitech duet controller, etc). in addition, the first web page often loads well, showing that a working connection is present.
- i installed opera mini (via my computer :-) )to see whether the issue is browser related, but with opera, i experience similar problems.
- different days, different hours of the day: same issue
- acces ovi via link in the applications, via the mobile site or via the regular site: always problems
anyone an idea where things go wrong and how to solve this?
I got some problems with my 5530.When i try to get on to a web page or open the search bar at all, it just pops up and gets right out again.It worked fine before, got the question to use WLAN or WAP.But now i don't even get that question, I simply can't get into "Web" at all.I`ve tried everything.. Someone who maybe know the problem? Please let me know.
View 4 Replies View Relatedthe 5530 is great for WiFi ... But ... after a while something (unspecified) is filling up C: (ie the phone)
I cant select E: (ie memory card) for internet downloads.So the phone is now useless for WiFi.Cannot recommend,unless the "File Manager" has a relocate downloads function - which is certainly obscure, if it exists at all.Minor problem:mp3 files sent via bluetooth reside in "Messages" on C: and _cannot_ be moved to E:the music player finds them, but the File Manager fails (again).Could Nokia please hire some people with computer oop systems experience?
The 5530 is a nice little phone with nearly everything. Only disappoint is that when im browsing the internet, it would randomly shut the browser.Also i have 4GB memory card and lets say its 3GB full, and the phone lags. I've updated it to the latest firmware also.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Nokia 5530 since christmas with latest firmware update. My problem is that when i click into the Internet, the screen just flashes and automatically closes. I tried it with connecting to Ovi Store and the same thing happens. I am using my wireless modem to connect to the Internet and it has never once given me a problem, just today it started acting up. Another detail is when i use other applications such as Software Update or using Ovi maps, it will download easily, but just wont open web pages even though it is connected,

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I just got my 5530 about 3 weeks ago and ever since it restarts so often. I was thinking maybe because I was using slideshow as my wallpaper or because it had too many songs and pictures. Is it because of those? Is it normal? But I actually don't think it's normal because it restarts like twice or thrice a day.

Great phone, but there's a problem with Nokia Messaging (or Nokia Email, I don't know - see screen below).I've already set it up with her Gmail account, but when she tries to check her emails, instead of this nice screen, it takes shows the phone's Messaging folder, where there's no HTML for emails (and, I think, no push mail support).Besides, both the "Email" and the "Email setup" icons lead to the same place (setting up a new account). In my 5800, it shows the screen above, which has a much better interface.

No matter what I try,I can only see a maximum of 7 contacts (plus the "add" icon). I have avatar images for all my contacts. All my contacts are saved to phone memory only, not to SIM card.

My friend works in USA, and she would like to make me a present and buy Nokia 5530 and send to me. It's my first Nokia phone, but I think, I would love it. The problem is in phone version... She sent me a link on Amazon (link is in the end of the post). Then I saw that it is U.S. Version. What does it mean? What's the difference? Is there any hardware or software difference? Functions? Someone told me that they have different functions (no FM, for example)... Please help, because I don't know what to do...The link is:URL...

Also, are there any known-faults and are they easily fixed? I was wondering what the reputation for this phone is here on this forum.

recently purchased a 5530, very happy with it, but the time keeps screwing up. which has to be the most annoying thing ever as i don't own a watch and rely on my phone
problem one: the phone seems to have daylight saving time set so when ever i update the time from Optus it automatically puts the clock forward an hour. this wouldn't be a problem... except Western Australia doesn't have daylight saving anymore... i cannot find any setting on the phone to turn DLS off and i have updated to the latest software
problem two: i turn automatic time update off and set the time manually but for some stupid reason every time i turn the phone on and off the time either goes back an hour or completely changes.

View 4 Replies View Relatedive played around with all the settings, etc. The only lights being displayed on the ld-4w gps module are the green light and the blue light. the gps light is not turning on. it is all paired with the nokie 5530 phone.Ovi maps is installed, all the firmwire is updated.
When i start the application 'Location' (the one thats included with the phone), it says searching for GPS devices. Then it says 'Waiting for gps', then (nearly instantly) it shows 'GPS Not Availible' and exits. After that it displays 'No Connection'.I have tried by going into my back garden and doing this but it still does not work.
However, when I use ovi maps and type in a route, it displays 'Waiting for GPS' for a long time, then it does not connect either, but then it also asks for an internet connection, which i dont have as i dont have any credit on my phone, and i also dont have wireless internet.If this is the problem, then why doesent the gps light on my ld-4w even blink?Please help, i need this GPS module up.
