MOST functions don't work... after upgrade to 4.0632.0.38

4 replies · 2,573 views · Started 09 March 2007

I've upgraded to the latest firmware upgrade in my region which is version 4.0632.0.38!

Guess what... I get a new folder called Internet in my menu, but I don't see any use for it!
Furthermore, i get a Music folder in my memory card when I plug in my computer.

Here's the downside... I CAN"T TRANSFER ANY SONGS even if I used the Music Manager or even copied it to the root of the card! The browser in my computer just closses, or an error pop-up saying either my phone has stop responding or been disconnected! I've reinstalled many times and it's still the same!

Here's another prob: my Gallery can't display ALL my photos and videos on my memory card, but I still can find them inside by using the File Manager!

Another prob: When I browse inside the Music folder through my computer, the folder name of the artist exists, but there were no music files in it! But when I turn on my Music Player, the phone detects the file and plays it! Even if I've managed to transfer a few songs before the error message comes up, when I select Update Music Library from the Music Player, there were no new tracks detected! But I still can find the new songs already in my playlist!

Anyone has any idea what is wrong with the firmware??? It's not the card problem as I've tried replacing many cards and it all ends up the same way so it's got to be the phone firmware!

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATED***

I've re-installed the upgrade (4.0632.0.38) and reformat my memory card with the phone... reinstalled back my apps and re-sync my contacts and sms, as well as copied back the photos...

guess what... everything got worse!!!

1- Music Player unable to detect any new tracks; NO TRACKS in my playlist! previously they are still displayed in the track list but now NONE!
2- Gallery unable to display photos and videos stored in memory card ( I tried taking a few photos with the camera and save it in the phone... and I can see it in the Gallery, but still can't find the photos in my memory card)
3- When changing ringtone from Profiles, only the default ringtones are displayed... the mp3s in my memory card is not there
4- this is the weird thing... when I go to the File Manager, I can browse everything in my memory card! Everything is there but my phone cant detect it!
5- still can't transfer some songs (mostly are in chinese name, but some are transferred successfully)
6- hope nothing more comes up....

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! REPORT TO SYMBIAN OR STH! RELEASE AN UPDATE OR CREATE A MINOR BUG FIX! ANYTHING! MY PHONE IS LITERALLY DEAD NOW!

i upgraded my phone last night, from a firmware of V3 to V4
the only thing i lost was on screensaver, the calender, that i really loved.
and more memory, that i did the upgrade for other than that its all the same

After firmware upgrade, format the phone. I know, seems silly, but do it, just in case. See if it works well!

Try a hard-reset as follows:-

1. Power off the phone
2. Hold the 3 * and Green buttons all at same time.
3. Power on phone (still holding down the three buttons at step 2)
4. Wait 60 seconds (still holding down the three buttons at step 2)

Nope it doesn't work... still can't find any tracks... can't find any photos or videos...

any more chances I could try? Please I need some hope... even if it's a high risk of breaking my phone... I'm deperate to fix this...
