Do you have the latest firmware installed on your handset?
It is always best to have the most recent Nokia firmware installed on your phone. This results in better stability and fewer errors in general on your handset and we we thoroughly recommend you ensure that you keep your firmware up-to-date: > Go to Nokia's "Software Updater" page

NOTE: We accept no liability for the loss of any data as a result of updating your firmware.



Do you have the correct version of SkyeTones for your handset?
Make sure that you have the latest available version of SkyeTones before proceeding. Check our product download page for the most recent versions of our software: > Go to product download page

IMPORTANT: before installing any new version of SkyeTones, first make sure that you uninstall any earlier version that you may have had installed.



Unable to install / uninstall / "Can't delete file" Error?
Due to changes in S60 3rd Edition the Application Installer does not properly shut down our applications when trying to install or uninstall. If you are getting a "Can't delete file" error message when trying to install a new version of SkyeCaller or when trying to uninstall SkyeCaller, then follow the steps below to resolve this issue.

1. Press and hold the menu button to see a list of active applications. If you should see either SkyeTones or SkyeCaller on that list (depending on what you have installed). Select it and press the "c" (backspace) button. This will close the application.

2. Alternatively, go into either the SkyeTones or SkyeCaller application, select "Options" softkey and the "Exit" from the menu. This will close the application.

Once all applications have been closed, you may proceed to install / reinstall / delete your Skyestream product.




Quick test instructions
The SkyeTones application works mostly in the background. What it does is add whatever videos you have to the list of ringtones you may select in either the Profiles or Contacts application. So, if you have for example "musicvid.3gp" stored in the "videos" folder in either internal memory or memory card, then you will see "musicvid.3gp" listed when you go to select a ringtone. So essentially, you use the same mechanism to select a video ringtone that you would to select a regular audio ringtone. It is however important that you store your video content in the "videos" folder otherwise SkyeTones will not find it.

So using the example above, you would do the following:

1. Go to the application menu
2. Select the "Tools" folder
3. Select the "Profiles" application
4. Select the "General" profile on the list of profiles
5. Select "Personalise" from the pop-up menu
6. Select "Ringing tone" from the list of settings
7. From the list of available ringtones, select "musicvid.3gp"
8. Done!



Video clip is not listed when trying to select a ringtone.
For SkyeTones to work, it requires all video clips be stored in the "Videos" folder in internal memory or on the memory card. If you place video in some other folder, SkyeTones will not detect it and it will therefore not be listed when you try to select a video ringtone in either the Contacts application or the Profiles application.

1. Simply move all video clips to the "Videos" folder
2. Done!




Known issue #1: When the phone rings, only the audio is played back / Two video clips with the same name listed when trying to select a video ringtone.
In some newer versions of S60 3rd Edition firmware, support has been added for playing the AUDIO of video clips stored on the phone. This causes confusion because SkyeTones also lists these same video clips, resulting in two video clips of the same name being listed in the list of available ringtones. Users therefore have to guess which one is the correct one to choose. 

Workaround fix:
1. When selecting a video ringtone in the list of ringtones, hover over each of the two video clips with the same name. While hovering, one of these will start to play back the audio in the video, this is the INCORRECT one, select the OTHER video clip (no audio played back while hovering). 
2. Once the correct clip has been selected as above, everything should work ok!
3. Done!
