I use the 11.0.054 but my 5530 has a lot of reboots.

I did deactivate Cell Broadcast, but no change.

Normaly I have only reboots by pressing the red button, but today also at starting a call.

Do you think its an software or an hardware problem ?

[makisig]

Its a software one. Try reinstalling your phone's firmware.

[purex]

It´s not software related. I have the same problem and took it to Nokia Service Point where they upgrade it from Firmware 10 to 11 version, with no Luck.

It´s now gone for repairment. They said the signal reception, should be tuned up, because it´s weird that the phone shuts down, when you press the "Answer Button "....

My phone did never reboot by pressing green button !

Only by pressing the red button, when displylight os off.

[purex]

Well you said it would reboot if you started a call. Same problem here ( answering and starting calls ). And i dont press green to answer, i press the " Answer  Button " in the screen. Best luck to your phone. I´ll post feedback when i receive mine from repairment

Now 2 times 5530 did switch off. After some hours I did see it.

Could it be the battery ?

[purex]

Well, i tried with different batteries and the problem remained. So i think we can exclude batteries.

Hello,

I have my 5530 for 2 weeks now, barely had any problems with it at all untill yesterday.

First of all my shortcuts dissapeared and i couldnt open my contacts and keyboard anymore, this is already solved by another topic on this forum but now my phone is extremely slow.

I was very happy to notice that typing a message with this phone was a real luxury but now it suddenly isn't anymore, when i'm typing it first goes fast and than its starting to go very very slow, now i'm hping that some of u got a solution for me cause its really annoying me.

Thanks in advance.

PS: Sorry for my bad english.

[mike7]

Did anybody leave the pohone ON over the night ? Since 5 days phone is allways off in the morning.

Over the day, phone never switch off.

Hi,

Recently whenever i receive a call and on hanging up, my phone display gets blank (black screen). None of the keys work. I then have to remove the battery to restart the phone. Anyboby got similar problems?

[mike7]

No, this problem I never had.

Only one time, by answering a call, phone did restart.

I dont knew, are those problems harware, or software problems ?

Bugs 

1.  

2.  I dont use passwords so...^_^

3. Im not sure if you turned off the breathing lights?

 Lacks

1. Currently playing playlist? in the Now Playing screen, select back, and it would direct you to the currently playing playlist.

2. Kinetic scrolling, well when you bought it didnt you know that it didnt have kinetic scrolling in the first place? Anyway, its rumored to be going to be added on a new firmware. Though you dont need to use the scroll bar to scroll. Whether on icons or list, you can drag. Swipe your finger downward then hold. The screen would automatically scoll downward. Or you could page up and page down. Tap the blank corner on the left of the scroll bar.

 3. I have no idea what you are talking about.

After a month of ownership, this is what I've found:

(V10.0.050 25-06-2009 Unbranded phone - running Virgin Mobile in UK)

Bugs:

• Internet Browser - fails over rather frequently.  At first I thought it was just on sites which are a bit rich and unsuitable for the mobile browser, but it also affects mobile sites.  This also seems to occur on Mini Opera too (that may be the Opera software but maybe it is the Operating System)
• New Text Message Notifications - these stopped coming through as audiable as did the big New Message notification.  Only knew I had new messages because the little notification in top right hand corner was showing.  A restart of the phone resolved this.
• Receiving calls locks the phone - when the Music Player is running, either playing music or paused.  I receive the call but during the call the phone locks up, so when the call ends the phone is locked up and displaying showing that it's still in the call.  Have to restart the phone.
• New email flag remains even when mail is read or deleted.  Have to restart the phone to resolve.
• According to the menus I should be able to rotate the phone to snooze alarms.  This doesn't seem to work.

Lacks

• Countdown Timer - a handy feature on all my previous Nokias, but now omitted.
• Snooze function - you can only snooze an alarm 5 times I think before it resets the alarm, my previous Nokias didn't do this, you could carry on snoozing. (I like snoozing )
• Battery is poor.  Even with say 1 hour a day web browsing, the battery is lasting 2-2.5 days at most.  Also as soon as the battery meter loses two bars it seems to drop rapidly.
• Pop up Notifications - seem to disappear too quickly, some you don't get chance to read.
• Would be great also if the phone illuminates on new message notification.  Sorry but I think the blinker is naff.

Bugs 

1. Internet browser. This seems to be a problem on the s60v5. This is also an issue in the 5800, which was resolved on some cases by the v31 firmware update.

2. You resolved it

3.

4. These two may be an installation issue. Try soft reset.

Lacks 

1. For the countdown timer, you can get an app called Time Machine free from Ovi Store. It can also count up and serve as a desk clock if you want

2.  Erm, i dunno. I usually just snooze once.

3. Lower screen brightness a bit and turn bluetooth off (if you havent). That should help.

4. Which pop ups is that?

5. Hmm, debatable. 

[mike7]

@beenlmaster: whats about reboots ?

No reboots yet ?

[beeblemaster]

3. Lower screen brightness a bit and turn bluetooth off (if you havent). That should help.

I have brightness set mid way and no bluetooth.

4. Which pop ups is that?

The snooze one for example, which says alarm snoozed or something like that for n minutes.  It just flashes up and then gone in about half a second.

As for reboots Mike, do you mean self reboots?  Yeah probably half a dozen of those.  Also have had it twice where the phone wouldn't reboot from the power switch and would lock after I've entered my SIM PIN.  But switch off and try again, it's ok.

Cheers.

My 5530 come from repairment today ( due to shutdowns after answering and making calls ), the repairment sheet mentions " Signal Transmission and Reception Adjustment " and " Module Repaired ".

Till now, the phone is fine.

Regards

@beeblemaster 

Ah. for the battery and the pop-ups, I think I may be able to help you.

On the ovi store, there is an app developed by third party developers called "battery extender" for s60v5. Don't know if it works though. Havent tried it. I'm fine with charging my 5800 every 2nd morning anyway. For the pop-ups, if you want longer pop-ups, try one of those third party alarm applications.
