I am currently experiencing an intermittent fault with my wife's N97 mini phones, where, unexplainable, it "locks up" and prevents any functions other than the Home screen. It eventually indicates that it has run out of memory and to close applications. There are no applications running and the only way to clear this fault is to remove the battery temporarily, and then replace it and turn the phone back on. All is good until the next "lock-up", usually within 1 - 2 weeks. We were advised to update the software, but this has not made any difference. My own N97 mini has not had this fault occur to date.
confirm if my phone would 'brick' or not if I used official Sony software to repair...I used the online service Da Vinci to unlock my bootloader...so if I use SEUS or PC Companion now...will it brick? How do I relock bootloader safely if I need to repair via SEUS? Would it be better for me to relock the bootloader then unlock properly via Sony? I did pay for the Da Vinci service, so I'm not in a rush to make a mistake! I'm planning ahead for the ICS update and just in case I want to reverse to 2.3.
i got n97 mini. i had some probs with it so i started saving apps from ovi on my memory card and my msgs on the mass memory so if my n97 need to be reset i wont lose too much data.
now i got two probs,
1. i installed couple of programs from ovi, and they worked for a while and now when i click on them it doesnt do anything, i tried to uninstall them but they dont apear on my installion apps, so i tried to download again from ovi but it doesnt let me download what i already downloaded , i even formatted my memory card , now all the apps icons removed but still i cant download from ovi.
2. the msgs on the mass memory works but once in a while when i receive or send an sms i get an error msg which tells me that now it will use the phone memory, andi need to go to settings again and chage it to mass memory and the msg i had just sent is saved on the phone memory and not on the mass memory.
I just bought my new sk17i a few days ago, its 11W42 at the back, build number 4.0.2.A.0.58 running android 2.3.4. Unfortunately the phone is unusable as it keeps either turning itself off, or totally locking up (I'm not sure which). It won't re-awaken using either the on/off switch or the home button. Also the camera performance, my x10 mini camera is far better than the mini pro. but the main issue here is the device sk17i turns itself off.
Just bought nokia N97 mini. Memory always full eventhough I do not open any application, touch screen freezes? already updated all needed to update. but phone still the same. Can anyone help?
Ive recently got a n97 mini, and have transferred my sim and memory from my old phone. In the top right corner, the envelope symbol (usually used when you have a message) is flashing. When I click on it, it says 'SIM memory full'.
I have this phone for only 2 days, Installed 3 free small aplications and suddenly I can't connect to bluetooth and I can't get into my email. A few minutes later I can't even open the menu anymore. Keeps on giving a 'memory is full' message..
the phone can't be full.. with just 3 little applications that i installed. Can anyone help me?
Just got myself a new N97mini and still trying to work around it. I noticed that it's a bit slow not very quick compared to my old 6500 slide. I know that it's got heaps more on it. I’ve noticed that when I open applications such as log, contacts, etc. If I am to go and open for e.g.: phone setup a message appears "memory full, close down some applications”. I then go to options in the menu screen and close down the open applications. Firstly why they are there, when they are no longer open and also how do I stop doing what it's doing? How do I turn it off, if I can?
I have a N97 mini with 4600 contacts,when i search any name it says 'Memory Full Close Some Application & Try Again'.I am doing all the possible settings like:- factory restore, hard reset, delete and sync again, select message memory as mass memory, then sync again through outlook, sync through phone switch.I just try to transfer all contacts on another N97 mini there is also the same problem.
My phone won't let me open any messages or photos or anything, it keeps coming up with the message 'Memory full. Close some applications and try again'. I haven't got any applications open and haven't got that much stored on it.
My n97 mini tells me that the memory is full close some applications , but I don't have any applications open. There appears to be loads of space on the phone memory when connected to Nokia suite.Also handset powers off periodically even when it has plenty charge.
After installing many apps my phone now says that its low on memory. but i do have 1.75 GB available space on my memory card. How can I install the Apps on memory card instead of phone memory?
HOW CAN ICHECK THE MEMORY STATUS FOR BOTH THE PHONE MEMORY AND THE MEMORY CARD AND CAN I CHOOSE THE MEMORY CARD AS MY PRIMARY MEANS OF STORAGE ESPECIALLY FOR MUSIC AND PHOTOS.
There seems to be a bug with remote locking on the E5 (where you send a text message with a pre-defined keyword to lock the phone if lost/stolen, etc) - it works, but then keeps requesting the lock code when switched on, even after it has been entered correctly. Disabling remote locking stops lock code request at startup but then you can't lock it remotely! Re-enabling remote locking makes the problem continue, even if lock code is changed in the mean time.Nokia customer services were useless and didn't understand what I was talking about.
This phone has been incredibly slow when using OVI maps or just at random times there will be no response from any buttons. I just had a "lock up" event and the flash bulb turned on by itself and stayed on until I removed the battery. Very slow to get to camera mode as well, sometimes up to ONE MINUTE before it starts up.
I can't undo autolock. If I go to:Tools > Settings > General > Security > Phone and SIM card > Phone autolock period and change from "User defined" to "None" I get an error "Unable to unlock phone".
I've just enabled the remote phone locking feature on my S60 mobile device; that is the message text to be sent via SMS to lock the phone and the security code (default 12345).I've sent several times from another mobile phone the security text message via SMS keeping in mind that it is case sensitive. Unfortunately when I receive the lock SMS on my S60 device it does not work. The message arrives as a normal SMS; it is possible to read its content as in case of normal short text messages.What could be the problem? Can you help me to figure it out?
I wish to know if there are any good softwares with which I can lock my phone's inbox, contacts etc. Have tried webgate advance device locks, it messed up my phone totally.
Just got my X6 16gb. Is there any way that i can extend the screen locking time or even stop it locking itself. Also, I'm using the 'You Tube' app that came with the phone and whenever i try to watch a video, it takes ages to buffer then plays about 3 seconds before buffering again. Is this normal?
Nokia CK-200. Installed with ISO cable kit, external mic. Works fairly well, no major complaints.
Except, on occasion it will just lock up solid, not respond to any input, and not communicate with either phone. Only solution is to power off and back on again, at which point it works fine again.
Seems to be getting a bit more frequent too. No real indicator as to when it's going to happen, it just does.
Just noticed that my new Nokia E7-00 has automatic locking function. When phone is idle for 60mins it will ask you to input unlocking code.
I don't like this, so I to Menu - settings - phone - phone management -security setting - phone and SIM card . There is a setting for delay for automatic locking. It is 60mins. But when I try to go and select that locking is not used, I get a message saying that you can't disable this function.
My 701 running on belle fp1 doesn't turn off the display after locking the phone?It's just keeps the display always on.Restarting solves the problem but this is happening again and again.
I have a problem locking my keys automatically with closing the slide. The support page of nokia says: When the slide is closed the keypad is also locked automatically. But I can't find in my settings of the phone how I'm able to activate this. I always have to push lock when I have closed the phone and it would be much easier if it locked auto.
I have just purchased a Lumia 800 which has the latest update and find it very fustrating that My music player will randomly pause and freeze/lock the phone rendering it usless until I reset the phone. This happens when I am using the phone while listening to musicThis issue is not an isolated case and has happened to many people with the Mango 7.5 (just google it). Microsoft were apparently investigating the issue, but this was some time ago and since then still no solution.Why does Nokia release newer phones with Windows 8 but dont solve issues with existing ones.Arrrrrggghhhh! my first Windows phone (after moving from Android) and I am NOT happy...Please don't give me a standard response like take it to a service centre because this seems like a software issue rather than hardware and the phone has the latest version already.So my question is,if there is a workaround to this and if not when can we expect to have an update to this problem ?
Either when making a call or receiving one, the screen goes black so you can't answer or hang up. Pressing any of the keys makes no difference whatsoever.
Once the caller cancels the call, the screen lights back up. It happens whether the keypad is locked or not.
Really strange, it's only intermittent but really annoying when you can't answer your phone?
When i lock the phone with the slider on the right side, the screen used to go black (or any screensaver would go on, if activated).Suddenly, when locking the phone, nothing happens. the screen dimms a little bit, but it's still on. It doenst matter weather i activate any kind of screensaver, the display always stays on (the keys are locked, i also see the locked sign in the menu bar). When i restart the phone, nothing changes.Only when I take out the battery for a while, the screen saver comes back up again. Everything seems to be working fine, until the next restart. Then the same problem happens again.
Is this a known bug (couldn't find anything on goole)? Am I doing anything wrong? It's driving me really crazy to see my Display on all the time (I also don't want to take out the battery after every restart).I also have to say that this happens to me on FP1 and FP2, even on a 2nd phone.
I have two problems with my new E52 (although I do not have other problems described on this forum). So:
1. I wanted to make E52 work like s40 phone in terms of functions arrangement and, long story short, now Menu button is under middle navigation button (Menu is the first icon in the icon shortcuts on the desktop). Under left function key I have Profiles. Because of that I can't lock the keypad the way it was designed which is left_function_key-right_function_key. I know that I can lock it by using on/off button but that is not very convenient.Is there any way to define other keypad locking sequence? For example like the old phones "Menu" + "*" ?
2. Second problem concerns calendar. I tried to synchronize it with Outlook via OVI and something went wrong. Right now I have many entries doubled and some of them finish in 2030. The option to delete before date in E52 does not work. How can I clear the whole calendar?
I purchased my N97 about a year ago and I absolutely adore it. I haven't run into any problems until last week. When I turn on my phone, enter the unlock code and use it to do whatever I need to do, it works fine. However, if I lock the phone or let the backlight shut off, it won't turn back on and neither do the lights on the number keys. Here is the funny part: If I press the power key (as if I were to change my profile) the backlight turns on, allowing me to see the screen, but the number keys don't light up! Does anyone know what I can do?
I'm not very tech savvy (so please don't laugh if my solutions are completely wrong), but here are some of the things I have done to try and rectify the problem: - Let the battery drain completely and charged it in the hopes that it would rectify itself like it has in the past with other issues - Took out the battery, SIM card and memory card just to make sure everything was inserted properly - Restored the phone to factory settings
i bought a new x10 mini pro. it comes with 2gb card. i used it for sometime. it was just awesome. then i thougt of upgrading it. i bought a 8gb micro sdhc card. i started using it.. and from the first day.. it made my phone heavy. it restarts. hangs up. screen times out. nothing is visible i click photos they are shown corrupted in the album. i went to the service center they asked for updation of software and charged me also. but it also didn't work up. i restored my phone to facotry settings.. and formatted the card too. when i used the same card with some other phone it was good enough. it just hangs up my phone. while listening to the music also it stops working the phone restarts.
