    By the way, Nokia OVI maps has an updated version!

    After update to v.20, the phone became unstable, hangs and sometime reboots without reason. I do not recommend this update if you are not using OVI maps.

    @vicky:
    Hi i dont know about the problem but i think there is some attack of virus or did u tried to hack the phone.
    The best possible thing is master reset ur phone its completely like formating ur pc no backup will remain and company settings will be stored with default firmware(os).pls u backup ur contacts.
    To master reset type *#7370# (just google up nokia reset)
