Problem in N8 Ovi social widget

Hi,

I am using my N8 for over two weeks now. When i use ovi social network widget to access my facebook account, many images do not load. It is shown as image broken/blocked symbol (like the one we see on some emails when images are blocked when veiwing on desktop).

 

Please suggest.

There seems to be an udate for OVI, Did you try to go on OVI store? My N8 asked to reinstall OVI store just now and after some 3 weeks use. This may be the problem. Reload OVI and try again.

Hello,

Thanks for your suggestion. I updated my device using Ovi Suite also I had a reset for it, but it didn't help (though i lost Maps during al this and had to re-load using ovi suite). Still the Images and icons in Ovi Social are seen broken.

Re: Problem in N8 Ovi social widget

Hi, when you open social widget, select "Options" and then last one in list "Udate service". It will check for updates and you get message "your service has been updated"

After you get this message you can add or log-in to your FB account.

 

By the way since when are you facing this problem? is your handset new (1-2 weeks), if so you need to update your phone probably for software updates PR1.1 or atleast social (latest version 1.2.163.).

 

Hope this helps you,

BR,

Maddy.

Its simple buddy, just open Social then select Add social network, put your FB or twitter details and you are done with it. (you need to have FB account and data connection either GPRS or wifi :smileywink:)
