More Bugs in Nokia N8

by Adil on November 15, 2010

Yesterday I saw a video related to the Nokia N8 cellphone on Youtube which was uploaded by a user “Brunoxtr”. According to him he bought Nokia N8 and faced some weird issues with this handset, the bugs in N8 that he reported were not severe and can be fixed just by restarting the phone but you can imagine how irritating it would feel if you have to restart your cellphone dozens of times daily?

The first N8 bug he reported was the slow operating speed and disappearance of theme effects even though the theme effects option is set to ON. This happens when using media player and removing the headphone while music is playing.

Second N8 bug that was reported was the disappearance of preview thumbnails from the “open applications menu”.

Another bug that he mentioned was the Nokia N8 playlist bug, almost half the N8 screen goes blank which looks really weird!

He further reported that music player widget stop opening! Usually after listening to music and after closing the player the music player widget appears like as i it has stuck there!

All these N8 bugs are fixable by restarting the cellphone but having to restart your cellphone after every use will eventually going to make you hate it!

Another issue regarding Nokia N8 that was reported is when N8 is plug into the USB it takes ages to be detected by the computer! even though N8′s memory card gets detected almost instantly but phone itself takes a very long time in appearing in computer!

As I said in my article that Symbian OS is getting old and having a hard time keeping up with the modern Operating Systems like the Android and iOS. So it is possible reason why N8 needs major firmware overhaul.

    I haven’t seen those bugs in my N8. What have you been testing? My computer is able to detect N8 in few seconds (ubuntu). Maybe you should disable antivirus. “having a hard time keeping up with the modern Operating Systems like the Android and iOS” – what I would say about your comment, I have android and there are more bugs, so I your opinion more bugs mean more modern system.

    Video seems legit to me.. i think these bug were exist when N8 was released but Nokia has fixed these errors and bugs in later releases of its firmware! the article is quite old though. N8 issues are very much resolved now!

    Hey Mark, 
    these problems were reported before the first patch of Nokia N8. Bugs were there and couple of friends also pointed those!
