6680 Nokia, bluetooth crashing.

Anyone out there having their phone crash occasionally when trying to
access the Connections>Bluetooth menu on the Nokia 6680? Seeing as I
have fairly recent firmware (V3.04.35 12-05-05 RM-36) and it's a pretty
new phone, I kind of hoped most of these "features" had been ironed out
by now, but the bluetooth app seems to be pretty unstable. It ends up
with the phone just hanging and looking at me - could do with an
equivalent of Windows' Ctrl-Alt-Del to be able to shut down the
offending app without requiring an on/off restart (which I have to do
at the moment)!

Overall a great phone and I really like it (maybe not the Orange active
standby page customisation though), but it does seem to have a tendancy
to fall over if you push it too much.

Had problems with bluetooth to PC Suite on 6680. Gave up and used the USB
cable. My old 6600 was far more stable!!

By the way, I'm going to send mine back to get it fixed, as I now can't get
into the Gallery, on top of all the other bugs I had mentioned in an earlier
post.

Will let you know how it goes.

Cheers!

I have 2.04.15 and it's been pretty stable, mind you I bought it SIM free so
no operator has got his sticky hands on the firmware.

Agree it's best to use USB for any operation likely to last more than a few
seconds.

Mine goes bananas all the time when trying to run tomtom to connect to my
bluetooth gps..........

pain in the ass

Uh oh, I was just thinking of ordering TomTom mobile 5...maybe I'll
hold off a bit.
