Nokia 5800 tantrums

Chr15_2

My 3 month old nokia 5800 has just develpoed this annoying habit when it rings. The first ring is OK then it starts to slow and alter pitch as if running out of steamm. Has anyone else suffered this or got any idea to stop it?

What kind of ringtone are you using? Does this happen when you change the ringtone to something else?

Ukuser

goto settings
phone settings
personalization
tones

select ringing and not ascending

Also check that its not got a special effect setting set. Mine had reverb set on it which sounds like yours does too.

Can I ask what the battery life is like in peoples Nokia 5800s?
I am on my 2nd one in 2 months and the battery lasts 24 hrs with minimal usage, and max of 36 hrs solely on standby. I have exited all apps. I am sure the 1st one wasnt this bad (before it seized up)

Mine lasts for days, sometimes even a week.

Sitting here eating my dinner I think that could be it, I was mucking around with the surround sound settings or something the other day, wonder if that did it, just got to remember how to get into them now lol!.....thanks everyone for the advice

my battery used to run out of charge quick when i had the email setting on check for mail every 5 mins, when i turned it off it went back to lasting 2-4 days

My battery lasts about 2-3 days with the phone set to check my e-mail every hour.

I stopped mine checking emails at all, and still made no real difference when on standby. I think i must phone to sort out replacement battery.
