Nokia E72 : Worthwhile to buy ????

Hi all
Hera are few experimental stability problems listed here:
  1. GPS: loses quite often the GPS signal and stop Maps application after a few times getting lost, this happens some days, not others....

  2. Email works so, so... This weeks it has begun to ask for passwords of my gmail and yahoo accounts without any reasons, last time it happened I had to remove all mail boxes, recreate them and then use a tremendous procedure to make it sync my gmail contacts and calendar. All of that creates multiple copies of my contacts and appointments (dozens, sometimes thousands....). In fact it creates copies as long as it doesn't successfully sync every thing and then it keeps syncing all the copies with all the sources (E72, gmail, gcalendar, ovi). It happens every other month. THIS IS VERY VERY ANNOYING and non professional.

  3. Random reboots : once a week...wether you are using updated version or not. dosen't matter to reboot.
  4. Battery life is no more than 2 days without wifi but with Bluetooth and 3G....

  5. It keeps finding some contacts with conflicts but self solve it almost every day! There is usually no reason for that (I did not changed anything about these particular contacts). From time to time, I have to hand solve some of those conflicts.

  6. The gps search function is not reliable: it needs to be questioned on line and doesn't find anything if you don't ask for words in the same order: quite a problem when you search in a non English language.

  7. The screen resolution and size are more or less inappropriate with some graphics in the maps application, ovi store.

  8. Loading html mails is so slow that I prefer not to do it: again a basic counter functionality with the so claimed "Mail machine" marketing position.

  9. Some warning message, usually displayed for a few seconds, vanish from the screen before I can just unlock the screen saver: they are not stored anywhere, you just should keep permanently an eye on that screen guy. Usually those are the ones that requires some real care from you.

  10. Some warning messages reflecting just a loss of 3G connection (quite usual for a gps in a tunnel for instance or just driving on a motorway in the countryside) do need some confirm action from you while they could very well be vanishing after a few seconds: in fact this right the opposite from point 9: no delay can be set off and you do not have a "do not ask me again" setup. Neither a "keep a log for that" setup...

  11. Network loss is so high even in your room it goes away.

  12. Takes hell lot of time to get re-registered with network if you just make profile ONLINE after a flight.

  13. Ovi keeps creating contacts named "Unknown".

  14. Ovi reformats your addresses (postal ones) for a non standard manner. That makes it a mess within each contact. See point 11 above for my opinion.

  15. Ovi limits the number of emails addresses per contact.

  16. The roughly one thousand contacts par phone is rapidly reached with the sync problems at points 2, 5, 11, 12, 13 happen. By the end, I think, they have never had any professional use of their phones...

  17. Battery life with GPS is 2 hours or so: don't use it if not in car with their power cable.

  18. Geotagging works every other day: you can not use simultaneously nokia maps and geotagging for photos. It gives random positioning in any application.

  19. MEMORY FULL : nokia's native error

  20. Loading contacts more than 3800 cracks the contact search function.
This is a short list but it ruins any serious use of this machine: what works one day cease to function the other day, what is important to you is not to them.

Obviously, the hardware is correct. The software is ruined by no testing before broadcast. Nokia should fix these issues if they check these...

Nokia Messaging Service Troubleshoot

I set up my Nokia Messaging account with my Windows Live Hotmail email address, but I am not receiving any email?
Windows Live Hotmail requires the latest Nokia Messaging phone software. You may be using an older version of the software. Point your phone browser to email.nokia.com and download the software from there. After you install the new version, the Nokia Messaging software will automatically launch. Click the Sync button to begin receiving your Windows Live Hotmail.

My mobile phone displays an error message about not being able to connect to the Internet. What do I do?
Your access point may be incorrectly defined or your mobile phone may be out of network coverage. An access point is a setting your mobile phone uses to connect to the Internet. You can change what access point Nokia Messaging uses within the Settings.Ensure that your phone is within network coverage and that your access points are correctly defined. If necessary, you can download new access points from the Settings (in the Tools folder) on your phone.

I get a 'This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification 500: Failure' error when sending an email. What does this mean?
In rare cases, Nokia Messaging cannot send emails because your email provider's SMTP server settings are incorrectly configured, or because your email provider will not allow Nokia Messaging to send email through their server. If you are receiving this error, log into your account at email.nokia.com, select Edit Settings on the account that is receiving error, select Change Server Settings and remove the information in Outgoing mail server and Outgoing server port and uncheck SSL Required for outgoing mailserver, and select Save. This will cause your emails to be sent through the Nokia Messaging server and should resolve the problem.

I get an error message when I try to get my email on my mobile phone in another country. What does this mean?
Nokia Messaging requires Internet connectivity. Most often this error is due to the fact that your operator does not have roaming agreements with operators in that country.

I am not getting email on my mobile phone any more. What do I do?
If your account is active and you are not receiving email on your mobile phone, check for the following circumstances:
  • You may have changed the password for your email address with your email service provider. If so, you must update the Nokia Messaging settings for this email address with your new password. Email messages will then be delivered to your phone.
  • The server for your email address is down. For more information, contact your email service provider.
My question was not answered here.

Nokia Messaging Service - NMS

Hi All

Its being a 2 year that Nokia had withdrawn support of Blackberry Connect.
So why Nokia did and what Nokia had instead of ????????

Why Nokia did ?
Nokia wanted to compete with Blackberry as the majority of email space has been captured by them. They had started early and had vast coverage with goodwill. So blackberry became as enterprise addiction. Nokia saw a mass coverage of email ecosystem with good number of outreach which if Nokia cover can take up their mail devices( e-series) up to a new benchmark.

What Nokia had instead ?
Nokia in order to curb blackberry and outreach masses of enterprise had launched their own push mail service commonly known as NMS: Nokia Messaging service.NMS gives user to define 10 different mailboxes both private and public.It delivers more then blackberry as follows:

  1. Folder Sync
  2. 8 ways of email sorting
  3. Numerous shortcut keys
  4. Flexibility to use as pull mail as well
  5. Text view and HTML view both
  6. No limit for attachment
  7. Over the air setup http://email.nokia.com
  8. Trash folder
  9. Free style
  10. Push cut off when less battery remains
Setup is one major feature of NMS as it is very easy to setup. Check out this video for NMS setup :


All your public email ids can be configured like as shown in video but if you are trying to configure your corporate POP3/IMAP4 email ids then do take following data from your IT administrator.

Server Type : pop3/imap4
Incomming mail server:________
Security Port : ______________(SSL, SSL/TLSs, start TLS)
Port No: __________________(110,995,993 etc)

Outgoing mail server:__________
Security Port :_______________ (SSL, SSL/TLSs, start TLS)
Port No:___________________ (25,465,587 etc)

Hope this will help......
Enjoy Nokia's Push mail service.
