N73

I have another problem with my N73, When someone rings me, Th person on the other end of the phone has an echo, This ony started after I bought a Parrot CK3100. Even when the parrot is turned off and not in use, The echo is still there

This is a known fault with the bluetooth implementation on several recent Nokia Symbian S60 handsets: Connection to non-Nokia bluetooth devices causes voice echo after disconnect. Cold start of phone cures it (until you next use bluetooth!).

Check out the Nokia discussion groups/forum (on Nokia website) where you will see loads of people having same issue (as I do too). Nokia say the fix will be in the next firmware release but no indication of when. Meanwhile loads of business users are dumping Nokia's by the truckload because of this potential health and safety issue - their staff often are given bluetooth car kits (or they are standard fitting in new cars) and the phones are almost unusable with them as a result. I have seen postings for at least 120 units swapped out for Sony Ericsson's! Add on all those users who have dumped their Nokia's and do not post...:con?

Usual Nokia 'head in sand' approach to customer satisfaction!:icon13:

If anyone hears of a fix, please post it here.
