ITS A N96 Not N97 Muppet !

can anyone help me please

everytime i install an application on my phone (N96) it installs but will never open.

i know having a problem with the install is common unless it is debranded, this has been done.

any ideas ????????????????????

it is still simlocked although i would'nt have thought that makes any difference.

 

Is the firmware the latest version ?

Are the apps you are installing for UK devices ?

 

Snazy, do you work at carphonewhorehouse?

 

it's a n96 not n97 what a muppet.

has the latest firmware

i have a standard nokia firmware but its not a euro one it has english and thai as my wife used to use it.

sorry forgot to mention they are uk applications ie garmin

 

Garmin installed nicely on my 5800 with symbian. Are you looking both in the apps folder and the main applications screen.
My Garmin appears inside the apps folder.

lol @ not knowing what phone you have

Is the install via the PC Suite confirming installation.

 

lol no, but I do hate CPWH !

Im just bored and in a helpful mood today, a rarity for me.

 

yes it's in my apps folder just won't open up. it has installed no problem from the pc and initial phone end.

 

Sounds like a problem with the Garmin to be honest mate. Mine installed and ran straight away. Could it be the wrong version of have anything missing. Getting any errors, or is it just a dead icon ?

 

it's just a dead icon, i could easily throw it at the wall lol

 

lol noooo! Its not an iPhone, there is still hope

How many times have you installed/uninstalled it ?

Is it legit or a download ? (*whispers.... you can tell me)

 

Is it a n95 app? some don't work properly on the n96

incidentally my n96 died on me again yesterday, despite my phone being out of warranty orange have agreed to send me my FOURTH n96 free of charge. Officially the worst phone I have ever had, orange have given me a nokia phone number to ring and complain but I doubt it will get me far.

 

Club Nokia always treated me really well mate. Try signing up and contacting them. They arranged for my phone to go to a shop for repair on the spot. Turned out it just needed a software flash, but Club Nokia took care of it.

That does suck thought, 4 phones would have me going crazy. Never had a handset replaced more than once, without me breaking it anyway lol

 

i am trying to install from a well known download site and the garmin has fantastic feedback, just can't work it out.

 

If it was garmin sat nav it would not install on mine either. It would either fail to load or get stuck on the spinning globe.

 

I bought mine, £25 inc USA and UK maps. Lifetime updates, cameras etc.
I did the same originally, downloaded it and it didnt work.... Tried from 2 download sites.

If your gonna get a hooky version, you can try finding who I got mine off.

Not that I condone such things. lol

 

i managed to get tom tom working, which i much prefer to the garmin.

just want to get one that uses the internal gps so it's always with me.


for £25 i would expect an origional ! £5 on manchester markets but as i'm tight i was even trying to save on that lol.
