New N97 User - Problems

Hi Everyone

 

I am hoping someone can help me with this phone, it's driving me crazy. I had N95 before which was reliable and did all I wanted, just got a new contract and went for the N97, but I am having all sorts of issues. I went to my contract supplier shop today but they don't have a clue how to resolve.

 

1. It keep chirping at me, I have no idea what it wants, there are no messages etc, it just randomly chirps. I have turned off the widgets as they are rubbish anyway, I prefer to access facebook etc via web browser.

2. It is constantly connected to WAP, which means it has to disconnect everytime a call comes in and during a conversation it is buzzing and interfering

3. My N95 would ask me which connection I wanted when I went online, WAP WiFi etc, this one doesn't, I can't get it to connect via my homehub at home without a 15 point drama it seems, is there another way?

3. Messages don't always open properly, after a switch off and on again they are ok for a while.

 

Other than that, it's fine!

 

I have been a Nokia user for some 12 years, but this one I can't work out how to get it to do what I want or even what my old phone did, it seems a retrograde way of doing things. I have checked for latest software, it says it's up to date.

 

Any ideas or advice would be greatly recieved, if I can't fix these problems it's going back.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi,

 

First thing you need to do is download the newest firmware update.

 

If you search this forum you will find alot of users of the n97 are having all kind of issues from hardware to software.

 

Good luck.
