My 1st N97 from 3G on the 26.06.09 didnt charge most of the time & crashed alot, I got an exchange handset straight away on the 01.07.09 which unfortunately still didnt work (all the home widgets keep disconnecting (saying loading all the time or blank) all of the pre-loaded games dont load (i just get white screen ) ? camera sometimes dont work (just get grey screen), facebook sometimes wont load, twitter & msn live have never loaded, tried loads of times. No n-gage support is “crazy” I connect to my router when im at home which i use with xbox live, wii, laptop & other phones no problem. Ive tried everything after a week of headaches & waitting for 3G to get more stock. I found that Boingo was the cause of some connection problems but all other faults + more still continue
Im getting my 3rd N97 on 10.07.09 but dont think it will work as firmware as not been updated yet going to have to send it back again… I saw this phone on youtube 6 months ago & could’nt wait for it to be released cant believe its so bad + when i called Nokia they said they cant do anything & that 3G need to sort it out ????????????? ZZZZZ Im about to pack up & move to the moon (sure 3 will say they cover 99.9.99.9% of it) nobody ever calls me anyway lol (funny now im always in that bloody 0.1%) In the end im thinkng of getting a Samsung Omnia II or i8910 HD both look great but i need a descent Sat-Nav as im runing TomTom 6 on N95 8bg) i aslo need lots of space for music & videos. The very few …

It made by homeless! Underground!
Just get the latest firmware, install task manager, and its fine. Any other problem ask me and i will tell you the solution.
@CorrectionPen : Im having all that problems too, the internet browser is a turtle and crashes everytime, I installed Opera and it works fast and doesnt crash… also Im having a lot of problems with the camera flash (it screws me the photos)
bin it lads lol nokia is shit made by wankers
I hate my n97
you have no TONGUE ?

update it to v20 its so good 50mb of phone memory
this phone is so useless. fukin the processor of the phone is so slow. a simple task just going on internet, crash/freeze most of the time.
i have widgets problem and the camera cover scratches the lens? WHATS THE POINT OF HAVING A COVER IF THE COVER SCRATCHES THE LENS??? the silver chrome rims around the phone is so easily scratch too.
Lastly, the video player is GREAT but cant play all format. only mp4 H.264. kinda piss off to convert all format.
I had the same problem, but I fixed. I think so
.. I use *#7370# and thet all. Now works camera.
I have the same problem. Perhaps you have it solved already? or it may be a software problem because the cam is coming out. or can the problem be forgotten in the 2.0 update? would be glad if you write back to me. mfg niko
i dont have any problems . . . everything workin tip top
i have the same problem -.- !!
yu problem is SOFTWARE
the same problem with the camera for me :@
just a black screen :X
the N97 is basically an expensive mistake if you buy it.. fm transmitter, which is a joke if your ariel is at the back of your car, NO INTERNET RADIO, widgets which crash, not that there are any good ones on OVI anyway. CPU that is slow, i.e. I can’t use a downloaded internet radio player with any other application open as the processor can’t handle it! lousy phone, and to think I have only ever had Nokia’s…. NOKIA YOU HAVE DISSAPOINTED ME!
yh n97 disapointed me as well i got problems with camera ,screen and its all the time crashing :@
Wow, I’m really sorry to see this. My N97, RM-507, has been great aside from the camera lens scratches. I just wish Nokia kept a few things the same as the N95. Get that straightened out. I don’t know what the 3 network is doing to that phone but the unlocked version for the US is good.
Boss,
Wa punya pun sama mcm lu
Not going to bother with this s*** anymore.
Luckily I have my 5D2 to play with.
thats some serious problem. u gotta talk to nokia about it and maybe get a new handset or refund kinda thing.
I had the same problem both with msn and skype and i am also with 3 network. I found a way to fix it though. I deleted the original applications and i downloaded compatible ones from the internet on my pc. Put them on the n97 and now works perfectly. Hope this helps.
did you installa any 3rd party application which damadged your phone?
mine works really well, got it a week back and havent had any problems with it so far
Man, don’t bother with this anymore. What you need to do is get a Samsung i8910 sim free… It’s a much better phone without all the Nokia bloat, and also it WORKS. Which is kinda nice.
i don’t have any problems with my Nokia N97. I have the update to.
How do you make the update, on the Phone or with USB and you PC. I do it with the PC. Maybe is this the Problem.
Nice Cat
