Nokia has been my first choice in phones for over 10 years but the amount of problems I have had with my N97 in the last 7 months means this will be my last.
I cannot update software or download anything because it keeps telling me I am out of memory. In fact the memory is so bad, what is the point of having all these wonderful apps if you cannot use them! waste of money!
It keeps switching itself off.
It keeps hanging so that the only way I can clear it is buy ringing it with another phone (which works for a couple of seconds), or by switching on and off a few times and hoping it works, or removing and replacing the batter (same results).
Now the camera doesnt automatically come on when i open the lens.
The backlight needs to stay open a lot longer than 60 seconds - that's **bleep** for surfing.
When updating the music library if i've made changes to the name of a track it will revert back to the original.
This is the tip of the iceberg, but the fact that it just keeps switching off when i'm nowhere near it and that i can't switch it on again is too unreliable.
At best this is an ipod on which you can surf and make/receive phone calls. you cannot use all the apps - i've never been able to have a game on their as well, or have documents on there etc etc without getting a beep to tell me i've not got enough memory.
I purchased my Nokia E72 around 4-6 months ago and I love it as a phone. It does everything I need it to.
The problem I have is that it doesnt receive incoming calls 100% of the time or let me do outgoing 100% of the time. It randomly hangs or crashes and does not allow the incoming/outgoing calls. When it is like this I can use my phone with every other function possible and there is no sign that it isnt working.
The only time I can see that there is a problem is when I switch it off and on again and then I have many "Missed call" messages popping through.
Therefore I miss many calls for personal and business and I need to swithc my phone off and on maybe 3 times a day.
I dont understand why it does this as I have never dropped or damaged the phone in any way.
I just procured my Nokia C6 3 days ago, and to be honest I am not able to use it. It hangs numerous times a day and the only way out is to disconnect the battery and plug it again.
Edited by Nokia:I have edited this post just to highlight that this discussion is about the Nokia C6-00. Nokia also manufactures a model called Nokia C6-01, and to our knowledge this problem is not affecting this model. vandelay / Forum Administrator
I was trying Mail For Exchange set up and in the middle my phone hung. I can only see the home screen and I see that my service provider data service icon at the top right corner. I am not even able to switch off the phone or access any options in the phone. Can I remove the battery directly without switching off the phone ? Will it cause any problem ? Is there any other way to fix this problem ?

When typing using the backlight on either Live Messenger, or writing a document on Word or a long message, the device completely freezes and blacks out, with both screens, keypads being unresponsive. I have to take the battery out and put it back in to make it work again.This has only ever happened when I'm typing with the backlight on, and for a prolonged period. Backlight function is pretty much useless right now. Background apps are not the issue, and neither is any other function.The backlight is basically useless right now.
The Video Pro app (not the regular video editor) on my Nokia 808 FP2 always hangs when I try to choos a video. I attached a screenshot of what is happening. I waited almost an hour just to see if it finally works but nothing.. just stays at this screen loading.
I Purchased Nokia E5 on 1 May 2012 , Now a day's ITs going in Hanging state many time in a day ,Sometime I need to restart It.I reset it to factory setting but, no help.
My N8 just freezes often and it is extremely frustrationg. I usually happens during sending txt and using Whatsapp. It just freezes. I click the right side slider to lock it - nothing happens sometimes. Then about a minute later, it catches up - all my clicks go off.
I suspect Whatsapp. I uninstalled it - seems to be better. So I reinstalled it. Same issue. Hanging starts again. After phone reboots - same thing.
I really love Whatsapp. I uninstalled it, and re dowloaded it from the site. Same issue. But things were fine about 6 months ago.
I have been trying to transfer some music from iTunes playlists to my Nokia E6 using the Nokia Multimedia Transfer app. First time I ever used it there was no problems, but lately it continually freezes up my mac when transferring. I am using Snow Leopard (latest version) and the plug in is the latest from the Nokia Ovi site.
I was a proud owner of the Nokia X6 since June 2010 till now recently. Every time I send an SMS or edit a contact, it restart itself. Everytime....
I took it back to MTNSP and they told me it cannot be fixed and they gave me a new handset.
The new handset: Now its a new problem, everytime I download software from Ovi, it start hanging, touchscreen not working. I switch it off and on again and it works for about 30 seconds and hangs/freezes. It does this everytime. I tried to delete the programs again but it keeps on doing the same thing. I tried to scan with antivirus program but still no solution
I am thinking about buying Lumia 820 but what worries me is the Hanging and Freezing of phone with memory card in it. Is there any Nokia recommended 32/64 GB memory card which will work without any issue?
Bought a Nokia Asha 200 20 days back (Graphite color).
1) Echo Problem while speaking over phone, both in Sim1 and Sim2 2) White screen and Phone hanging up
The problem is once it gets hanged up, automatically switches off and never starts up again. While it starts up, only the 'NOKIA' boot logo is coming , and the handshake logo is not coming up after it. Took it to a Nokia Care center, near my house but yet after reflashing the OS with V11.56 the same problem started occurring just after a day!
My 5530 Xpress Music does not start anymore, It just hangs when i start it .Just shows as White screen with Blue Nokia Logo on it. and does not go on and continue booting.Tried removing the battery,sim, etc
Having purchased a new Nokia E75 yesterday I set the phone up today. After switching off the phone and placing it on-charge I now find the phone will not start at all?
I was charging my phone, it has a BL-5J battery and suddenly after a few mins it switched off. The battery is overheating, the phone is also heated a lot and can barely hold it.I took out the battery and let it cool for sometime but when I put it back the phone doesnt switch on.Even after charging again for a few mins it doesn't switch on. whats the problem exactly? the battery or the phone? its a few months old only.
I recently purchased a 6700 and it now seems to be switching itself off .wheni spoke to the salesman he told me to update the phone on pc suite which i did and it told me the phone is up to date .The problem is still there.can anyone help?
I've purchased my new new nokia X2 01 mobile in month june 2011. Since last week it keeps on swiching off frequently. There is no problem of battery charge.I've also visited Nokia care regarding this. They have updated the software but problem is still existing.
When in dim light the key the keypad light is not coming on when I press any key. I have looked in the manual, tried different settings for the sensor and looked at online forums. No solution exists. The only way to make it work is by blocking the sensor with your finger. Obviously this is not a good solution. Is this a malfunction or is Nokia stupid to design the phone like this? On any model of Nokia on the press of a key the keypad backlight should come on.
Recently my nokia 5220 xpressmusic phone started behaving very erratically.It keeps on switching off automatically once in every 2 minutes.I have tried "restore factory settings" but still the problem persists. 15 MB is free in my phone memory..so not a matter of internal memory.
I've recently bought a nokia e6 in december 2011 and I updated its software to symbian belle and a month later I restored it to default settings and it restarted but kept on tripping and switching off. Now when I try switching it on it will only load and switch off in the middle of the process it will switch off and try switching back on but the same thing happens.
Just last week I got myself a new nokia e72, the first day itself- i started experiencing problems-the thing started to reset itself numerous times. I decided to do a firmware upgrade and still NO CHANGE! The next day it started to spontaneously switch off without no reason. I completely formated both my memory card and phone memory and still the same problem! I gota say, it's a piece of junk! The thing resets itself and likes to off itself! Anybody experiencing similar problems? What a waste of money!
