Asha 200 custom theme problems

My asha 200 has a lot of bugs when a custom theme is installed, even with a lot of free memory. I just upgraded the firmware to v11.56, and these are my problems:
1. Some theme elements turn invalid after some time.
2. Lags when typing, some presses are detected as double presses. Therefore the corresponding number or symbol or double letters in a letter key is displayed.
3. A lot of files in the gallery, even songs in the media player are read as an unusable file type.
4. Displays "message not sent" when sending a message through the message editor (not the conversations view).
5. Opera mini constantly crashes.

I've tried all kinds of themes, even those from the nokia store, but all of them caused problems. Even if they're very simple or very elaborate themes, they all cause problems. I set one of the default themes, and instantly all of the above problems were gone. Please help, I really want themes on this phone. :smileysad:

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

To fix these issues reinstall the firmware. If it doesn't solve the issue possible fixes-
For messages issue- Is it for a particular contact? If yes then ask that person to disable "reply via same centre" in message settings & you also check it for the same on your device.
For opera mini issue- If you are using v 6.5 then use the Nokia Store to upgrade to v 7.0. Its much more stable. Also clear the data under privacy settings from time to time.

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

To add to above post if the custom theme that you are installing is large in size then it may lead to phone getting slow, which in turn leads to the double response problems.

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

@ng85, no it really happens to all contacts...

And even if the theme size is only less than 100kb, it still problematic.

As for the opera mini issue, I'm still using v7, and there really are no problems with it when a default theme is set.

Ok thanks a lot, I will try to take my phone to a nokia care center again, we'll see what happens. :smileyhappy:

[ Edited ]

hey,

 

could you send a link to one of the themes that is causing problems for you? Do you know if the themes are specifically created/optimized for Asha 200?

 

Also, can you check how much free memory does your device currently have left? (you can see this from: settings->device->memory status->free memory)

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

@armagon
I got them from themereflex.com. They're made mostly for c3. But even the ones from the nokia store itself cause the same problems, even if the theme is very simple with a low file size. BTW I'm downloading from my phone's Nokia browser, so I'm pretty sure those themes really are made for the asha 200. I'm not running low on memory either, I have 5mb on my phone memory and 800mb on my memory card.

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

the fact that you are downloading the themes with Nokia browser doesn't necessarily mean those thems are optimized for your device. If on the other hand you chose "Asha 200" from the "Nokia Phone Selector" filter in Nokia Store, then you should only see content specifically published for that device model. 

 

Can you name one example theme that you faced the issues with? I'll see if I can reproduce the problem.

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

Hello,

 

I also found listed  problems on my new ASHA 200 with custom themes: 

 

1. Some theme elements turn invalid after some time.

3. A lot of files in the gallery, even songs in the media player are read as an unusable file type.

 

You can find used themes in the attach

 

After memory check I can see approx 7 MB free memory available. 

 

Tryed to convert mp3 to smaller bitrate to reduce file size from 8 to 3 MB, but have same result: File is unusable.

 

Problems solved immediately after installing of standard nokia or other custom  theme with size till 200 kb.

Re: Asha 200 custom theme problems

Try to restore the phone back to its factory settings:

 

1 End all calls and connections.
2 Select Menu > Settings and Restore factory sett. > Settings only.
3 Enter the security code.
This does not affect documents or files stored on your device.


After restoring the original settings, your device switches off and then on again. This
may take longer than usual.

 


If the issue is still the same, try to re-install the software using Nokia Suite
