Nokia :: N97 Mini And Home Network - UPnP Fail
Mar 15, 2010
I have a simple need: copy files from a shared folder on a PC to a smartphone over a wireless lan. The copy command should be executed by the smartphone, no need to bother whoever is using the PC.
We chose N97 Mini because it looked like a very good device for our company needs and was in bundle with a communication plan, so choice was limited.
Before giving my 'go' I checked online and saw on several sites that N97 mini has UPnP, Nokia site made no statement at all about it. Knowing N95 had it too i made no further inquires about that. Big mistake.
Now comes out that N97 mini doesn't support UPnP. The reason for it is beyond my imagination. Am quite **bleep** actually.
So now I would like to ask Nokia support: is there a way to copy files from a PC over wifi on this cool 2010 piece of. hardware?
I can browse the web with it and sure, I could upload the files on our web server and then download them. But for some reason I have yet to understand the .xls files get corrupted and the 'impossible to open the document' error appears (without further info). Also selecting where to save documents each time is a pain. And of course the absurdity of sending our files over to Texas (that's where we have our servers) and then back to Europe is astonishing considering we want the files from a PC a few meters away!!!
So, again: how can I copy my files (over wifi)? WIll Nokia support UPnP for the N97 mini in the future? WIll my trust in Nokia be restored?

I thought when I did my research on the Internet that it said the Nokia 5800 had UPNP feature for streaming music from my pc to the 5800 by wireless LAN - however I cannot find UPNP in the phones menu - is it there?

I've got data traffic, and Wi-Fi ticked and I can see my network on the Wi-Fi Networks list but when I click on it and enter the password beneath Wi-Fi it says "disconnected".What's even weirder is that I managed to connect the phone to the internet the first time I booted it up for five minutes, but since then I haven't been able to recreate that success . What should I do?

However when I connect to BB desktop manager the phone is identified with the correct PIN. The fact that it is zero at home>options>status is causing some of my apps to fail to work.
This just happened today evidently when I sync'd the phone to my desktop. I have only loaded one OS update, and that was weeks ago. The particular app is question is Shortcut Me

smartphone to replace my sturdy nonsmartphone. After some research, Xperia mini pro was the winner.I have not done much with the phone (synced to google, set up some wireless networks, pretty much it).PC companion: tells me an update is available. I get a page telling me to learn more about android 4.0 before allowing the "Continue" button to be pushed. After reading it, I push the "continue" button, but at the start of step 2 PC companion just goes back to the home screen.Software update through phone: "You have the latest software and applications from Sony Ericsson. Your phone is up to date!" (android 2.3.4, build 4.0.2.a.0.62)

My Nokia 5800 can't establish connection with WPA-protected home Ad-Hoc network.
I created such network based on my laptop wireless adapter and configured a WPA2-encryption for it. Then I found this network available via Nokia 5800 wlan-menu and tried to connect - this caused an error "System failure: function is not supported". So that Nokia smartphones support only open and wep-encrypted Ad-Hoc networks. WPA/WPA2 is enabled only for infrastructure mode. (But my laptop wireless adapter only supports managed mode, ad-hoc and monitor mode, so I can use only ad-hoc mode to set up home access-point. And I am sure I should use only WPA encryption for it, because WEP is vulnerable)
Maybe I can edit some configuration file in my Nokia device to enable WPA-encryption for Ad-Hoc?
If Nokia can enable this function in later versions of firmware?
I also will be very grateful if you recommend some symbian-applications which can enlarge wlan-functionality in my phone.
my network detail description:

I recently got my new mini back from the local Nokia Care centre after repair (Screen broke). Before it went for repair it was perfect and did all I needed it to do. Now however I have a multitude of problems. Most of these I have resolved with a little bit of research. For some unknown reason when I try to add content to one of the three single app "windows" I get a very restricted selection of apps to add. ie Wlan scan is not on the list. If I edit one of the multi app windows, all of the apps are there, so it knows where the apps are..
Also I have another query. Is it possible to re-install the firmware as opposed to updating it ? It was on all of the previous Nokia's I had, but this does not seem to be an option with the N97 mini. I feel that my local Nokia centre is a bit short in the expertise department and I am somewhat loathe to take it back to them in case they screw it up completely.

I have a Nokia 500 with Belle installed (vers: 111.021.0028) and Nokia Suite vers 3.6.36.On the 17.12.2012 I've installed the latest version of Romania maps: 00.02.47.103 and since then I get the same error message 'car navigation cannot start at this location'. I can access the maps, I get the correct position but the problem occurs when I try to navigate to any address. It doesn't seem to have an actual issue with the location because I've tried several locations in Bucharest and got the same error.

Lately my Nokia PC Suite version 7.1.40.6 fail to backup any of my E71 phone contents.Message received after using the Backup feature is "The phone did not contain any content to be backed up. The backup file is not saved."However my phone is full of content and the message is not true.I had similar problem a few days back with and older version of PC Suite but strangely no such problems with the same version of the old PC Suite last year.I hope you can help me on thios subject as I cannot over emphasised the importance of backing up the phone contents.For your information, I have used the latest version of PC Suite Cleaner before installing the latest PC Suite.

The compass is not working on my Nokia C6-01.I cant calibrate it. Even other compass apps dont work. Nokia care staff reinstalled firmware, but the issue was not solved. They said it is a sensor issue and they will check whether this is in touch panel or the board itself. I just want to know whether sensor has any role to play in a compass. The Nokia care staff has no idea of what a compass is and how it works. He didnt understand the exact problem even after I showed it. I had to grab another similar phone and showed him how it works or should work. I am fed up with the failure of Nokia phones within a year or so. This is my 3rd handset in row to have developed issues. Seems better to move on to other phones.

I have bought my n82 since 1 year already and was happily using it when I noticed that my messages are failing everytime and the phone is resending it (or rescheduling to resend it) and ALL the time it fails, and it reschedules to infinity.I paid this mobile from the sweat of my work and now it is failing after only one year? The destinator of my message sometimes call back and tell me that they have received 5 times the SAME message from me BUTTTT the phone is saying message rechedule (as it failed). What the hell is that? failing on myphone but successfully sent?
I have had this problem some months back. And I did a hard reset and firmware upgrade to 31version. It was ok for 3 months, and now the problem is BACKK.My message centre is good, I even tried to use the network of only gsm - no success.

I have installed Nokia Suite twice (after first uninstalling it and removing all the drivers) and Nokia software update once, but neither product can see the phone connected by the USB cable. Windows is able to load some of the drivers, but depending on the time 3 or 4 of the 7 or 8 items windows tries to install fail. ie Nokia N86 USB LCIF fails, Nokia N86 USB Generic fails. Device manager has a flag on all phone related items, except for Nokia N86 USB Phone Parent. During the software installs the software sees a phone and asks for it to be removed before continuing with the install, which I comply with. So the software at least partially sees it. The phone is connected by the Nokia supplied cable directly to the motherboard in PC mode and this is a fresh (1 week old) install of Win 7 64.

I recently bought an 5230 and I'm having trouble installing WRT apps on it. I wrote a small HelloWRT app (the one from Nokia Library) using Aptana, I copy it on the microSD card using the supplied data cable. When I try to install using the File Manager, it asks me if I want to install, I choose install, and then nothing happens. My phone's software is up to date. Any clues on what's wrong?

Main issue is that all attempts at downloading games/apps via the onboard "Store" app end up failing. Click on download, shows "downloading" briefly but almost immediately shows an error that download has failed. This happens with ALL apps in the Store.

After upgrading my phone to Anna, I am no longer getting GPS locks under AGPS at all. Previously, I had no trouble acquiring these locks.I did look at positioning methods and chose the right home network settings (set to NO) and I have created new server supl.google.com in addition to supl.nokia.com but to no avail... There is no choice for selecting an access point for these positioning servers, so I'm not sure if the data requests for positions are getting through at all...I installed LeGPSData and can see that there are 10-12 satellites in view but none in use.. The GPS locking problem seems to affect Ovi Maps, Google Maps or Viewranger... basically any tool that depends on Nokia's AGPS implementation......

I can't seem to connect to network when I'm not at home (so can't see incoming emails, updated facebook, new tweets, etc.) It still says GSM or EDGE with a few bars so it looks like I have internet but it's just not transmitting. Don't know if this is related but this seems to have happened right after I did a backup and connected the BB to the computer and desktop manager and did the update. Should I undo this? How would I do that? Or is it some other type of troubleshooting?

I recently updated to ios 5.1 and can no longer access my home network. It shows up and I am putting in the correct password to join, but I am getting the unable to join network pop up. Last evening I upgraded the firmware on the Cisco router and this morning reset the network settings again on the phone as well as the "all settings" reset. I tried a full restore as well, and still no luck. Also I am now unable to get into iTunes from the phone as well. I know it's not the network due to my iPad as well as my wifes iPhone and her iPad, that have not been upgraded to a new OS, work fine.
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1

I have a nokia n8 and I added my music manually by drag and drop, but for some reason only some of the songs from some albums went on and some albums appear but have no songs in them at all. I can find no option for deleteing these albums off the phone it seems like a big fail in the design of the mp3 player.

Orange required me to install their Router - a Netgear DGN 1000. When trying to connect my Blackberry to the network, it finds my Home Network but then tells me that the Router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup. To connect using a PIN (which my Blackberry will generate, click Next. I click next and the mobile generates an 8 digit number with the message "Enter this PIN into your wireless router."I cannot find a way to enter a PIN into the Netgear Router and all attempts to get help from Netgear have failed to solve the problem.The latest advice from Netgear was that I should contact Blackberry.Incidentally, the Wireless Printer and the Wireless Laptop both work inconjunction with the Router, as does the PC which is hard wired to the Router.
