My Nokia phone (C7) comes pre-installed a software called JoikuSpot. This converts the phone into a wifi hotspot. I have the phone with me for a few years now, I had never used this functionality.
The other day I enabled a temporary data plan on my phone. I decided to give the software a try. After multiple attempts, I kept getting the error:
After spending almost an hour on this, I realized, the wifi on my phone was turned off! Could this be the reason? I enabled it and started JoikuSpot .... and it worked!! This made me wonder, I am sure there is an API on the Nokia Symbian S60 platform which lets you check if wifi is enabled or not. If only the error message had indciated that!
Unable to start JoikuSpotI tried different settings, when to the FAQ page on JoikuSpot's website. It had a list of applications on the phone which interfere with JoikuSpot. I uninstalled all of them, but the error remained.
