Applications that worked in non-S60 3.0 devices will not work in the N91 or other S60 3.0 devices because of binary incompatability. Example: an application that works in a N70 or 6630 will not work in the N91 or N71. If an application was downloaded from the MMC of these devices and transferred (drag and Drop) into the N91, this would corrupt the HDD and the HDD would have to be formatted to function again. The N91, on startup, will see applications that were copied from the PC to the HDD. It will try to install these applications; this will lock the HDD and not allow access. This problem, with early sw (version 1.0), was only able to be repaired by formatting the HDD with Phoenix, because the USB connection could not access the HDD. Also, if the customer took a backup of a corrupted HDD image, when they restore this image to the device it will have the same fault. If an application was interrupted when it was being installed on the HDD by a power cycle. Applications have to be allowed to install uninterrupted Slow Accessing Applications Causes: SMS, MMS, Themes, and some applications if they are loaded onto the HDD, will cause slow access times. All these items should be loaded onto the devices internal memory and not the HDD. Quick Test tips If the device will not boot: - Restart the device with the battery cover removed If the device boots then there is a HDD issue. If the device boots but can not see the HDD - Make sure the battery cover is in place. - Check that there is a magnet in the B-Cover Use a metal object (a paper clip works) and see if it sticks to the lower right side of the device (opposite to the USB connector) If it does not stick replace the b-cover with a good b-cover. Retest. Testing There are different tools available to test and repair the HDD. They are available from the User Interface (UI), through the “Mass Storage” USB selection when connected to a PC and through Phoenix test software. Depending on the level of corruption on the device, this will limit which tools can be used. If the HDD is not accessible through the UI or the PC, then the last chance to format the HDD is through Phoenix |
