My collection of issues with nokia (i have nokia 701 )

I live in israel and have nokia 701 with Feature Pack 1  . 

 

1. When talking with people, they often tell me they cant hear me. All of their descriptions of what happens are the same: As if i'm becoming far far away from them . It happns alot, especiialy, so i believe, after i switch from speaker to phone (or vice versa). a friend of mine had a nokia C7 and when i spoke with her , i also felt what my friends tell me they feel. Could this be a known bug with the microphone? C7 and 701 are very similar in design. 

 

2. when i speak, the screen goes out, and thats good, because of the proximity sensor. When i get it far from my head though, it sometimes remains black for a too many seconds (approximately 3 seconds more than it should, before it turns on), which makes it obviously hard to use it if i wanna write a number on the keypad during a call or switch to speaker. It should be said, it doesnt happen most of the times, but it happens too many times. And despite the fact the screen remains black for those extra 3  seconds, if i touch the right place, for expample, speaker button, the phone reacts. Meaning the screen DOES go active, just forgets to show it :smileytongue: 

 

 

My questions about (1) and (2) , are basically: i am still in the one year warranty, so does nokia (or better yet Eurocom, the company that represents Nokia in Israel) HAVE TO REPAIR THIS? is it even fixable?

 

 

Another issue:

 

3)

Lumias are available now officially in Israel, and so Nokia rushed quickly and released the never-available maps for israel, but only on Windows Phone. 

WHEN will they, if at all , be available to symbian? I mean, if it exists for the fancy lumia, the data is there. It just has to be made available for the symbian platform. Any info on that? 

 

 

 

4) BTW another question, does it make sense that new OS updates (FP1 & 2, and Refresh), are not and NEVER GONNA BE available on the Nokia Suite? and Over the air either? At least here. 

We have to go to the Eurocom center and install it.  And after the one year warreny, updates will cost approximately 10$. (Talking about OS versions)

1) and 2) should be fixed under warranty, although you could have saved time by asking them direct.

Re: My collection of issues with nokia (i have nokia 701 )

thanks,
i just wanted to point out that i have rechecked about proble (3) with nokia maps , and they are available for israeli symbian, at lease for nokia 701 (with FP1) .
I plugged phone to pc, start suite, the suite said there are new maps, I downloaded them and among the new list was Israel, and i downloaded it into the phone.
Cool maps :smileyvery-happy: only problem is that even the help ceneter (Eurocom) dont know about it, i askd them when it's gonan be availbe and the said not now, are simply didnt know. They're so outdated.
another slight issuse is the fact the israeli Map is completely ENGLISH. I can , ironically, search for hebrew street names and it wll find them, but the maps remain fully english.
Thanks for helping!
