    I have problem, after this update, with opening music files from music voice search and with mail client, I can not work with mails, some problems in connection. Maybe reinstall will solve these disfunctions?

    Hi, I recently update my E72 with the new 051.018 firmware using Ovi Suite, and the following problem appeared: I cannot access to the LOG, neither touching the Call key in the Home screen or the Log botton in the menu! I’ve lost the Log function and it’s driving me crazy!

    Does it happen to anybody?

    After updating my Nokia E72(051.018) with Ovi on sept 12th I got many Problems, eg:
    1) When someone is calling me I do not see their names on display anymore
    2) clock disappears at times
    3) phone freezes frequently
    4) blue tooth connection often impossible to realize
    5) it seems the phone has become slower in response
    6) I get spontaniously message that my memory card can be removed. I have to put the card in and out, restart phone and pray it will work
    Sigh, this update is a shame for Nokia!!

    fw update is not available on website or via *#0000#, but yesterday when i went to control panel->phone->sw update, i found one update named “phone software update” or something like that, with a size of 12MB, and i clicked download. it was actually fw update v051.018.
    it is a crap update, nothing change much, i agreed with some other coments

  • 4stupid

    After upgrade,
    1. had to hard reset (shift-space-return) for everything back to normal.
    2. PDF reader back to v1.5 (from v2.5 when firmware @v031) !!!

    3. Still need to reboot the device as sometimes the screen frozen (suspect due to display driver issue).

    i upgraded mine 2 weeks ago. then after a week the sound/volume got loss. i cant do loudspeaker, music player or any message/call tones. all Silent only Vibrate can do.
    i tired to reboot the device but nothing happen still no sounds at all. :(
    any advice anyone Help?

    the best option is to use the computer instead of OTA. i installed using OTA and the upgrade file had about 10mb, while using the computer an almost 200mb file is being downloaded. right now i ‘reinstall’ to see if any changes appear, using OTA i encountered some issues that were “fixed” with subsequent restarts.

    TRY HARD RESET after upgrading firmware if you encounter more than 5 hangs. if it still fails, reinstall firmware then hard reset again.

    I just got my self a upgrade from My Nokia E71 to a Nokia E72 “White Edition”, but Sadly It Feels like a downgrade.

    Critical Issues faced :

    1> I Configured Mail for Exchange on the phone to sync with my google contacts, but I canot select only contacts and calender to sync, which i used u have in my E71 Only if mail sync is enabled it syncs contacts and calendar which was not the case in my E71, where i had selected it to sync only calendar and contacts but not the mail. Which is simply not possible with the new E72.

    2>The Nokia Messaging Email Client is outdated 2.xxx in my E72, But my E71 had 3.xx which stands out

    But the major issue is when we recieve a mail alert, it doesnt show to which mail box the new mail has come, I have about 8 mail boxes when i recieve a mail alert i actually have to visit all the 8 mail boxes to check where the mail has come.

    Also the biggest problem is when you locate the mail it shows in a plain text format, but my E71 use to display it in HTML format by default. The plain text has a lot of line breaks which shows up has huge gaps and you have to do a lot of scrolling to read the message which totally would have lost its formatting and is hard to make sense out of the email. You can view it in HTML, but then it shows retrieving for a long time and then opens up the mail, for a guy who gets around 50 emails a day doesnt make sense to wait each time to view in HTML..

    Note: You cant view HTML mail from MfE mail boxes at all!!

    As a legacy Nokia fan (have been since last 10 years, all my phones being nokia) I went and bought the E72 (regrets, plan to change to a Blackberry Device) after using the th E71 for quite a while, The E72 which actually is a E series business phone which cant do the basic things right. No wonder Nokia is loosing Their market share to Players like iPhone, Blackberrys, and Androids.

    Hope we see a patch or update soon, before ppl trash their E72, never look back to nokia again and opt for something like a blackberry with the same form factor. Which does all the above things in ease.

    I hate Key Auto lock Function of this update. It tries to lock the key wherever I am in, including when using OVI MAPS for driving, somebody can get their car crashed when rely on this GPS Service, really… really annoying.

  • Rafał M.

    Most of the changes of this release do not concern me, except that the clock on the bottom line is smaller.
    It was also already before to small when the screen saver is on. And it has the same annoying feature as on E70 – it moves around the screen. I’ prefer date to be 4 times larger, time – twice and not moving.
    It is good that we get those short report about changes from our kind anonymous author, I was able also to find more detailed list. My question is if there is any place to find the planned changes. You probably know this false statement being sometimes expressed on free software projects, that they have no development plan. I would like to turn this question against this Nokia commercial product.

    I have absolutely no problem with this update 051.018 after updating. Everything works as fine and quicker than the previous version 31.023. I am still testing out MFE. Singapore.

  • Manish

    I had the same problems ever since i have upgraded to 051.018, frustated i have formatted my E-72, After formatting now it is working properly. Dial *#7370# to format your E72. Remember you will lost all the saved data. Create a back up before u attempt for it.

    If this information is useful…..you can reply me wid ur comments.

  • kamil

    if you try to update via e72′s menu then you will get: NO UPDATE AVAILABLE, but if you connect e72 to PC and use NOKIA SOFTWARE UPDATER you will get an update then so I did last night and now my e72 is running fine on 051.018.
    To be honest can’t see any change between 051.018 and 31.023, if anyone can please comment it.
