NOKIA 5800 Tips Tricks & Apps Thread.....

[nuyork]

Is there a way to check your product code via a keypad input?

I changed my product code when I got my 5800, but I can't remember what I changed it to.

Why must the new minor update be 113mb again!

 

[Raithlin]

Which product code is that? I'm not getting any updates...

 

[remybfg10k]

I'm one the british isle red one, thiking of changing to euro 1 red so i can rather do the ota update

 

[remybfg10k]

Update only available through NSU program.

 

[Raithlin]

Ok, so I changed from Euro1 Red to Euro1 Black, and it worked! Upgraded from v30 to v31 - definitely a speed increase.

Raith, NSU or OTA?

I see its Ovi Maps 3.1 standard now, maybe thats why the NSU only?

Its easy to fix, take the battery out for at least 30 minutes, take mini sd card out, then hold in red button, green button and camera button.

Problem solved, k@k'd myself the first time it happened

Hope you had a backup (Save early, Save often as Sierra used to say)

 

[Peder]

i have a backup but i have tried everything to get this phone to work, maybe i'll try again

I wish i knew why the heck this happens...

 

[Peder]

ok well i eventually got this phone to work!!

Thank goodness to WA Trial cause otherwise i would not have been able to download soo much...

After trying nokia phoenix (which refused to work) i used Jaf and also downloaded the firmware, but yeah i must say it was quite a mission at least my phone is operational again and not a paperweight.

 

[rossleethomas]
