2600 Classic

Have an icon appeared on my screen, capital E in a square box, and can't phone out any more. Please tell me what and how to fix it?

It would appear that your phone has an EGPRS connection. Go to Menu>Setttings>Connectivity>Packet data and set the packet data connection to 'when needed' instead of 'when available' - see if that helps.

Using a uk tesco sim, with a french 2600 classic? ...

FROM FRANCE, not UK,
I just tried an old Tesco sim (from an ancient Brit cellphone, both dating around 2003-5)
in my french, new Nokia 2600 Classic. This old sim has lasted vey well - and still has £2 + credit to use.
It seems to work - more or less (I have to put a country code on ALL numbers - for France too)
It picks up BT - and then - Bouygues fr.
Id like to top it up and carry on with it - in the new phone - but I do not know if there are likely to be probs with it.
Does anyone have any thoughts on that?
Thanks for reading my Q;!!:womanvery-happy:

Nokia 2600 Classic calendar synchronising with Nov...

I have been successfully using the sync capability for a year or so on the version of pc suite prior to Ovi, for managing my calendar appointments (using Novell Groupwise) on my pc then uploading to my phone Nokia 2600 Classic.
Now that I have downloaded the Ovi suite to my phone, the synchronising no longer works, although all other elements of the software works ok.
Can anybody offer any advice?
Regards

Hi all,
just to follow up on this issue, I thought some might like to know I've been in touch with the novamedia.de support team. They sent a new version of the plugin, and now I have calendar syncing via bluetooth working (like a charm). However the contacts syncing is still one-way only, from the phone to the computer. Will post here when (if?) this is sorted out

HI guys,
I STRONGLY SUGGEST NOT TO BUY THIS MODEL!!!
I hv bought this set and am struggling too! I hv bought this set only because, this supports data sync with PC. I hv given it back at the service center but they r clue less. U cannot write anything from PC to Mobile via bluetooth. More over, data cable is not supported by this model, which is agreed by the service center people.
I am gonna ask for compensation for this if they r not able to resolve this problem.
They can't take the consumers for ride like this.
I hv provided them with good support, in the nokia PC suit, the handset shows a lock symbol after pairing. It means there is some software lock which prevents us from writing to mobile from PC.
Any opinions or solutions solicited.

Silent startup for 2600 Classic

Is there any way to prevent my Nokia 2600 Classic from playing an infurating tune every time I turn it on? I've managed to find set-up functions to eliminate other annoying noises, such as the bip every time I press a key, but failed to find a way to turn off the start-up tune.
I really don't understand why modern gadgets feel the necessity to make noises every time they do something. I would like to be able to turn my phone on, for example to check messages, in quiet places without disturbing the peace. My old phone did at least confine itself to a relatively innocuous bip, but this new one seems determined to break into song every time. It's driving me up the wall.
Keith (Grumpy Old Man).

I've still not got to the bottom of this. The only time I managed to get my phone to come on without making a noise is when I selected the "Silent" profile. Unfortunately it didn't ring for incoming calls either. I therefore edited the Silent profile, changing "Incom. call alert:" from "Off" to "Ringing". That made it ring for incoming calls but also caused the silly tune to come back when I turn the phone on. Grrrr!
Within each profile, if I choose to edit the profile I get the following options which I can change (my current selection for "General" profile is in brackets):
Incom. call alert: (Ringing)
Ringing tone: (Nostalgia.mp3)
Ringing volume: (Two bricks coloured in)
Vibrating alert: (Off)
Msg. alert tone: (Beep once)
Mail alert tone: (Off)
IM alert tone: (Off)
Keypad tones: (No bricks coloured in)
End of list tone: (Off)
Alert for: (All calls)
Other tones: (Off)
App tones: (Off)
Nothing in there about start-up tones. What is "IM alert"?
I still cannot find a way to set it up so there is no sound (or minimal sound - a short beep would be acceptable) at switch-on but it still rings when someone phones me.
Any suggestions?
Keith

2600 classic not keep settings when turned off and...

I bought my 12 yr old daughter a Nokia 2600 classic as her first phone, and it won't keep her display or theme settings. When she turns phone off and back on the settings are back to originial (default)?
Is this becaiuse we are not unsing it right.
Do I take it back under warranty?

have you tried to create a profile then activate it this was a common fault with the nokia 6500 due to loose back cover and storing items on memo card but thisphone does not take a memo card
try taking out the battery for 5 mins then a factory reset,the code is 12345 then create and activate a profile.

2600 classic newbie

I have just bought a 2600 classic, and am in the middle of entering all of my contact numbers. I would like to put them into seperate groups, so I don't have to scroll through all the numbers.
When I add a number to a group, it remains in the main list, which defeats the purpose (for me at least) of putting them in the groups.
Is there a way to do this? Its probably easy, but I can't see how.
Thanks in advance (and don't laugh too hard at me

the numbers will remain on list, when you look at groups they will appear as you have selected for each group

2600 classic battery live

Hi, I just bought a 2600 classic. The battery live should be max. 560 hours, but after 4 days I have to recharge. What can be the reason? **mail address deleted by moderator - please use PM system only**
Message Edited by romanov on 06-Jan-2009 06:55 PM

When phone manufacturers quote a standby time it's under ideal conditions.
Ideal conditions are when the phone has a very strong constant signal and is not being used or moved at all. All data and connectivity features are disabled. No calls, messages or even having it's keys pressed are allowed under testing.
In the real world you'll never get battery life like that.
4 days is very good for that model. My friend has the same phone and only gets 2 days.

2600 Classic, connecting to PC

hi, I have a 2600 Classic, is there a data cable available to be able to connect it to a PC?
otherwise how do you get images you have taken on the phone onto the PC?
i have read somewhere data transfer isn't possible... in which case, what is the port on the side of the phone for, between the headphone socket and charging socket?
thank you!

WIDCOMM and Microsoft Bluetooth are listed. The WIDCOMM one is checked as this was installed with my Sitecom bluetooth dongle. The MS one is unchecked.
I've tried unchecking both and checking on again but to no avail.
When I go through the "get connected" wizard, PC Suite finds my N95 etc but at the end of the wizard "no phone connected" remains displayed and the red cross in the PC Suite system icon remains. I can, however, send/receive things by bluetooth but as PC Suite isn't recognising it being connected, I can't sync stuff which is the only thing I desperately need to do!

2600 classic screensaver

Hi, just purchased a 2600 classic and cannot get the screensaver to work. No amount of variations of power or standby or switching on and off seem to work. Any ideas what I can do?
Many thanks

2600 Classic, pre-installed games

My 2600 Classic (on AT&T Wireless) came with 3 pre-installed game demos, one of which was Tetris. Following the links in the phone, I purchased the registered version of Tetris. I was charged $6.99 USD, the game downloaded, and a screen came up that said the application was now unlocked. When I tried to start the game there was an error that said that my license was unable to be validated. After fighting with it for a while and checking all of my network settings, I called AT&T Tech Support. Get this one... They said that Tetris is not compatible with the Nokia 2600 Classic model phone. What a load of **bleep**, Nokia pre-installed the game to begin with. Nokia has been the only mobile phone brand that I have ever purchased. In about 15 years, I am on my 6th Nokia phone. It is really dissapointing to see just how poor their selection of bar phones has become. This model doesn't even have a calculator any more.

Hi,
Ive looked on a few download sites for the tetris game and it does not seem to be compatable with the Nokia 2600 like you say.
Maybe you could contact Nokia or at&t and plead your case for a refund on the download fee. Its down to who put the game software on ! Obviously not java supported.
Silly to impose a demo game on a fone and then does not allow an upgrade.

Nokia 2600 Classic Latest Software Version

Hi,
I have Nokia 2600 Classic. It is RM-340 and the version is 6.82.
I have heard that there is a latest version, i.e, 7.60.
So, what's new in 7.60?
And, the current version that i have (v6.82) doesn't show time in main screen with keypad locked (with security key) and is in silent with a new message (Having a bigger display than Nokia 6030 or Nokia 2626, Nokia 2600 classic can display the other icons in the next line). And, the calender tone is default set to ascending. Are these any bugs?
And, i want all the Indian Languages to be retained in the new version (v7.60).
Waiting for reply.
Bye,

I notice they fix the screensaver bug. Now when you choose "always" option, the screensaver realy stays always!

Nokia 2600 classic - how do I get the back cover o...

I have just bought my first mobile phone ever, so am a complete novice; I have tried to follow the instructions to press the release button and take off the back cover to fit the battery, but I cannot get the cover to open.
The main question is, am I trying to open the phone at the right end - i.e. if the phone is face down, the end nearest to the loudspeaker?
I am loathe to use an implement on the phone in case I damage the case.
Any advice would be very welcome - I feel so stupid!
Thank you.

nothing to be ashamed of, we all have problems with certain phones sometimes.
the back cover of the 2600 is quite big and covers the whole back side plus sides of the phone that's why it's difficult sometimes to remove.
the release button is located at the top of the device , with the phone facing down press on that button, remeber that the body of the button is actually part of the body and not of the cover and so performs as a latch.
while pressing hard enough on that button you can fell that the button goes in enough distance to clear the whole thickness of the back cover plastic. Now wedge your finger nail between the cover and the body anywhere at the top of the device, that should give you enough lift to release the upper part of the cover.
pull up and slightly backward to release the lower part of the cover.
for a diagramtic representation , please take alook at your user manual, available here:
nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/guides/Nokia_2600_UG_EN.pdf .
Fear not those who argue but those who dodge
