Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

Big issue after 3 days with photo camera:

 

The screen is just black with the buttons working fine. When i take a pic with that black screen, it will say "processing image" for longer than usual then return an "Unexpected error occurred. Restard phone" error message.  When I restart(off then on) the phone, everything's gonna be alright again.  But only until you use the camera & video again.  (Just change the modes and it will come out again.)

 

it seems some nokia 5800 users had same problems but can't find any solutions...i m starting to hate this phone

 

any suggestions comments ??

 

cheers

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

Hi everyone,

 

I'm from Portugal, bought the 5530 just a few days ago from TMN-Portugal and basically my main problem is the amount of reboots that the phone has. These automatically reboots happens when i'm working with the phone or just simple let the phone alone and sometines you notice that the initial nokia logo is showing on the screen meaning that another reboot was made.

Yesterday after another reboot i loose all my messages on the phone! This is really bad :smileysad: i hope a new firmware update fixes this problems, also i know that users from 5800 have reported similar problems with their phones.. I sure hope Nokia fix this problems otherwise i will buy a new one and replace this.

Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

Hy. Best u can do at this time (till a new firmware will be relese) is to go to Nokia Service. Very likely they will rewrite your soft and i am very sure your problem will be solved. I have a few issues with my 5530 but i will wait an firmware. My problems are very 'light' compare it to yours. My phone restarts but only when i turn on the phone. THE BIG PROBLEM HERE IS THAT NOKIA RELESED ON MARKET A PHONE WITH VERY BIG ISSUES. AND THEY STILL NOT LUNCHING ANY FIRMWARE TO FIX THOSE ISSUES.NOKIA SLEEPS.

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

You can reinstall OS without going to service. Just type *#7370# into the phone programm.

 

The most interesting thing is that the phone is available on market since August 4. Exactly for a 4 weeks. Almost a month. And it's still not present on Ovi site.

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

i've had my 5530 for just over 24hrs...unfortunately for me, the WH-205 headphones (for which there is absolutely no trouble shooting or advice on this site) are not working properly...but i've already had one instance of lines across the screen and then restart so i'm a little :manindifferent: lets hope the update comes out soon...

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

hardly it will happen in visible future. the phone came out to market almost two months ago. and it's still not on ovi site. looks like nokia completely disowned this phone... two 5800 firmwares out since 5530 in shops. quite bad situation for the phone of such price (which is far from to be low budget, but cost as much as 5800)

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

I do. I´ll take it to service point , the second time. The first one they just upgraded the firmware. I thing it´s an Hardware Issue. I tried different SIM CARDS, Different Batteries ( of the same kind of course ), with / Without Memory Card, Hard Reset...with no luck.

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

Do you guys feel call volume(with handset) is a bit on the low side even at 100%? Will firmware fix these type of volume issues? 

 

Do you guys have the battery wobble/shake problem? If so, did you do anything to fix it?

 

Great phone overall if you exclude these to setbacks.

I don't have any problem with the volume. 

 

Use some blu-tack to stop the wobble

Re: Nokia 5530 bugs and lacks

Had mine for about a month now and I love it. Any issues I've had have been very minor and easily sorted with a restart. One thing though, when is the 5530 going to show in the Ovi store??
