      Hi. After the update my c7 to Anna 22.014 vpn it does not work. Intranet software opens but i can not change the options. The destination of the connection settings. Access points do not remove or copy or move. Also I can not create a new access point, That’s error is < unable to edit protected network destination > ..
      When i enter some software such as Opera & nimbuzz & .... my access point dont active automaticly but when i enter web software its access to the internet automaticly.
      I wanted to install witopia-lax ( vpn software) but thats error is < unable install policy , see vpn log for details> and failed to install.
      Thanks a lot.

              Version 25.7 of Anna is a region specific update.
              So if it's not showing up in Ovi suite, don't worry as it means it's not available for your region.


              Thanks

                Removing those two files will not affect the performance or functionality of the phone. There was a problem with the update which caused the conflict in the Conversations app (that's Nokia for you).

                The conflicting files are created when installing Applications updates 1/2 and 2/2, which also contained MS Communicator, Quick office and Adobe reader. So, if you remove those three apps but decide to re-install them at a later date by installing the Applications 1/2 & 2/2 updates those conflicting files will also be re-instated.

                Sorry for the confusion.

                    Thanks for the feedback. Very appreciate that. Just some question. Those 2 files are co-related or stand alone on each other?

                    Does this removal affect installed apps functionality & performance?

                    I not really catch your meaning on the last paragraph. Does it mean that those files will automatically come back after removing MS communicator, Quick office & Adobe reader? Or do you mean that reinstall those applications back after uninstall suggested files?

                        Those two files are a result of conflicting Conversations software and can safely be removed. There will not be any impact on the rest of the phone other than actually giving you the ability of split screen typing in conversations.

                        There is a scenario for those files to come back and that is if you uninstall MS Communicator, Quick Office and Adobe reader then re-install them at a later date. You will then need to remove those two files again.

                        All the best.

                          During Anna installation, both portions have been succesfully installed. Other fratures for Anna update are available only split screen is excluded. Even another of my N8 which is first batch also facing same issue.

                          Before i try your proposal for uninstalling those 2 files, maybe better for me to understand few things.
                          1. Are those files system files?
                          2. What is the function for each file in Symbian Anna?
                          3. What are potential impact if those files removed from system?
                          4. Can those files recall back once uninstalling if other problem occurs?


                          As addition, I red lots of people claiming that their version can be upgraded to 025.xxx. Mine still cannot update once update via ovisuite and ota via phone. Or this is unofficial custom rom. If yes where I can get it.

                            maca, 21 Oct 2011How to see if it taken off the network?@ maca.

                            At the top of the screen, next to the battery icon will be a small symbol that resembles a radio tower with a small padlock next to it. This shows an active Wi-Fi network connection. If the symbol isn't present then you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network.

                            For a 3G connection, you will see two arrows pointing in opposite directions, one above the other next to your signal meter on the top left of the screen. Again, if that symbol isn't present then you are not connected to your 3G network.

                            All the best.

I hate N8 anyway but i really want a N9 (waiting for the 64gb version to be on stock again, sold out evrywer).

                                  anyway, the N9 has a pink tint on full brightness, its not bad compared to the everlasting strong blue tint on SGS and SGS2 but its still a big deal for me... Hopefully N9 update can ix it then, i guess ill take the chance and buy one then. Im aware it cant match HTC and sony SLCD displays in color reproduction but hopefully close enough
