Remote lock & Memory card corrupted issue

Remote lock & Memory card corrupted issue
Hi Dear Friends,
You might have experienced the "Memory card corrupted issue."
Don't panic! The solution is here!
Your memory card is just 'locked', it isn't 'corrupted'!
For sure, this post would be of great help to you, if:
• You have enabled the "Remote lock" feature of your Nokia device.
• You have sent the remote lock message to your device and locked it remotely.
Finding the solution really took me a lot of time. I was inspired by various posts on the Discussion, and decided to find the official notes on the issue. So would like to thank those who shared their tips, and helped us solve this problem.
I'm using E66, (you might use something else), and would refer to E51's and E65's User guide so often.
Of course, I'm not going to explain the instructions, and recommend you to refer to your user guides when needed.
On the contrary, I'm going to explain what may not be mentioned in your user guides.
Let’s Begin
What Has Happened:
In short, you attempted to test the feature, your phone was locked, you keyed in the lock code, code was accepted, you used the phone for a while, switched it off, powered it on, you were prompted the Lock code, you keyed in the lock code, code was accepted, you attempted to view some stuff that was on your memory card, you didn't find it, you tried to run a program that was installed on your memory card, the program icon didn't open, you put the memory card in the card reader and connected it to PC, it was not detected, you went to Menu> Tools> Memory card> You saw "Memory card corrupted"!
Don't, don't select the Yes selection key if you got the caution message, "Memory Card corrupted, reformat it?" because your memory card isn't corrupted, it's simply being locked!
But you can't find the unlock memory card command in Menu> Tools> Memory card> Options.
So? What to DO?
1. (This step is optional) Disable the Remote lock feature.
(Refer to your user guides) and change Allow Remote Lock> to no.
Then, while the unit is on,
2. Press the power key briefly, and select Remove memory card.
3. Remove the memory card from the slot.
4. Press OK if prompted.
5. Reinsert the memory card in the slot.
6. Reopen Menu> Tools> Memory card.
Is your memory card detected? If yes!
7. Follow tips number 2 & 3 of What to Know section below.
Did you get "Password removed" message?
If no, be careful of the case of the first character.
If you had changed the Remote lock message many times, use the one that was practically sent to the device via text message.
. In case you had set a password on your memory card before, you may also attempt to unlock the locked memory using your own password, not the first eight characters of the remote lock message.
Step seven would make the memory card detectable to the connected card reader to the PC too.
8. The memory card is detected temporarily, but it is locked and the "memory card corrupted" issue reappears every time you switch off/on the phone, unless you successfully complete step seven.
What to Know?
Official User guide Tips:
1. Remote locking also locks your memory card. (E51 page100)
. Yes, the one mobile phone that sends your device the predefined remote locking message, receives the confirmation message in response, indicating, "Mobile telephone and memory card are locked". But it isn't written in E66's and E65's.
2. To unlock the memory card, select Menu> Tools> Memory> Options> Remove password, and "enter the remote locking message as the password". (E51 page100)
. Yes, quite clear, but the quoted part ("enter the remote locking message as the password") isn't written on my E66's User guide, and there's a vague precaution on E65's, (refer to number 4).
3. If the message is longer than 8 characters, the first 8 characters are used as the memory card password. (E51 page100)
. Yes, quite clear good E51, but I don't own you; I have E66 your little sister. I owe my memory card's survival to nice users on the Discussion.
4. The maximum number of characters allowed is 8. Using more than 8 characters could prevent unlocking the memory card and require reformatting it. If reformatting the memory card is required, all information on the card will be lost. (E65 page28)
. Quite interesting, but it contradicts what good E51 says in number three¡!
. And it contradicts my own experience of the issue (and some other users' on the Discussion) too, since my E66's memory card accepted the 'first eight characters' of the 'ten-character long’ remote lock message that I had previously used to remote lock it.
. The first three tips are quite important and shouldn't have been excluded from E66's and E65's user guides. I don't have the time to download and review all the user guides that support this feature, but at least I read some user manuals and also got the impression (from the posts on the discussion) that there had been not enough information on E66's, E65's, E71's, N96's, and some others.
You may like to do a simple search on Google:
"The first 8 characters are used as the memory card password" site:nokia.com
Since the content of the user guides on the server seem not be searchable for any reason, you won't find any official support result except those of the good users on the Discussions. And the 'Nokia Site Search" brings no result too. (At least on the date of this post).
¡ Terribly sorry for those who have selected Yes to the Reformat caution message. It wasn't your fault. But there's an idiom that says, sleep on it! "Think about it for a while before coming up with a decision".
But now that you have tested the feature and know its solution, don't be afraid, and enable the Remote lock feature again! God forbid, but it may be needed one day!
Yours,

Dear, I guess, / This article doesn't suit your case. / • You have not enabled the "Remote lock" feature of your Nokia device. / • You have not locked your device remotely. / Because you don't know where the remote lock is and haven't played with its settings. / You need to explain what has happened. / The only thing we get is that your memory card doesn't open. / 1. your phone model, e.g., 5130. / 2. What did you do recently that might have caused this issue? / 3. What methods did you try to unlock it? / Use some of the tips provided above. (except number 1). / Yours

How to unlock memory card nokia 5310

i just updated my nokia 5310 firmware from 5.81 to 8.32 and now my memory card has locked itself.
can anyone help with this?
does anyone know the code?

I think the locking code returns to "factory default" after a firmware update is made.
The phone's lock code does return to the default 12345 after a firmware update with phones that do not support UDP (User Data Preservation).
The MMC password does not get reset to the factory default simply because there is no factory default for that.
The file in the phone's memory containing the MMC password is erased when the software is updated, which means that the phone no longer remembers the password. The phone then prompts the user for it, which is when they wish they'd made a note of it somewhere!

How to format Memory card in N79 and 5630 Xpressmu...

Hi everyone,
I am using N79 amd 5630 Xpressmusic. Can any body tell me how to format the memory card in these sets. Coz in file manager there is no option to format memory card.
Regards

Hi Sappal,
To format the memory card follow the below procedure:
1. Go to "File Manager-> Memory Card" (I've named the memory card as N79).
2. You will need to open the memory card and then go to its "Options" menu.
3. Go to "Memory Card Options-> Format" and confirm.
Please note that the memory card will not get formatted unless every application is closed and you have not installed any third party applications on it. For this, you will have to uninstall any third party applications and only then proceed with the memory card formatting procedure.
Let me know if you need any assistance. My id is

How to swap memory card with all apps, data etc.

Hi,
Currently I have a 2GB memory card on my E63 (latest firmware), which has 3 'paid-for' applications and several free downloaded applications, loads of mp3s etc. I have purchased a 4GB memory card already, and would like to "do something" that would help me retain the entire contents of the current 2GB memory card, onto the 4GB memory card, s.t. apart from extra file space (which I plan to use for photos, videos, music), all other applications and current content remain available on the new card, w/o any other impact. I believe that backing up and restoring via 'Nokia PC Suite' won't save my apps, and only some of the data. E.g. it won't save the eBooks I have.
Thanks in anticipation for the help.
cheers.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Easy.
Connect the E63 in "mass storage" mode.
Go into "My Computer", open the removable drive that will have appeared when you connected the phone. Enable the display of hidden and system objects (this bit is crucial, but I don't know how to do this not being a Windows user myself).
Once you have the display of all objects enabled, create a new folder on your desktop and then copy all of the files/folders in the phone over to it.
Next, disconnect the phone and eject the memory card. Insert the new one and format it in the phone (that'll be in your phone's manual).
Reconnect the phone in mass storage mode. Grab all the objects in the folder that you created on your desktop, including hidden and system objects, and drag'n'drop them over to the phone.
Disconnect the phone once everything has been copied over -- don't forget to use the "safely disconnect USB device" thing in the computer's notification zone.
Job done.

Assuming you are using a PC running Windoze, connect your phone in Mass storage mode (Plug in your phone, select Mass storage from the pop-up. If you don't get any pop ups to choose the mode, go to Data Cable settings, change it to "Ask on connecton"). Right click on the new drive that is shown in My Computer, and select "Rename". Or, left click on the drive, press F2, to enter a new name.

I was Purchased LENOVO 3000 N200 notebook last month. All devices and working properly. But my MEMORY CARD READER (5 in 1) is not working. I was downloaded drivers and installed in my laptop, but when i'm inserting memory card in to slot it is not showing any message in my laptop. But Green LED is blinking.
Please give me instructions how to use MEMORY CARD READER...

Although the best way to read your memory card, memory card readers can be a pain. I've had a few I've just thrown out. Make sure the USB connection to the port is fully seated. Make sure the memory card is fully seated in the reader. Do you have an SD card because the reader in the iMac is by far the most reliable I've used.

How do you select multiple messages/conversations on SMS/MMS to forward or save to memory card on Samsung Stratosphere?

How do you select multiple messages/conversations on SMS/MMS to forward or save to memory card on Samsung Stratosphere?
My screen is cracked and I need to replace my phone and I don't see a way of selecting multiple messages or even conversations one at a time to forward them to email or to save them to a memory card. I can delete thread but can't forward it or move it. Is there a setting somewhere that will move the storage location for messages to the memory card instead of internal?
If not, any suggestions on backup apps? I have heard of Txtract to back up SMS and MMS messages, and Titanium Backup to back up everything (SMS, MMS, apps, app data...). Anyone have any experience with those, or other suggestions?
Thanks!

How do i activate Memory card password?

Hi. I have a nokia 5800 and have set a memory card password, but it never asks me to enter it when i access files! How do i set my phone to ask for a password to access my sensitive files?
I am using firmware v 21.0.025 which i installed wirelessly from the updates section of my handset.
Also, is the lock code onlyusable after the phone is idle for a preset period or can i use it to lock certain ares of the phone? the guides are VERY vague...
Thanks in advance!

The memory card password is not there to protect your data within the phone, it will only be requested if it is detected that the card has been inserted to a different device (or if your phone is reformated or reflashed).
The phone autolock is only after a preset period, you can't normally activate it manually. There may be third-party applications that could offer the extra security features that you are looking for, but they are not built into the phone because the typical user doesn't require such a level of protection.

When I insert my memory card iPhoto opens. How can I make the default program Preview?

When I insert my memory card from my camera, iPhoto opens. How can I make Preview the default?

Denny,
Open Image Capture which is located in your Applications Folder.
Connect your device to your computer, then turn the device on.If the device is locked with a passcode, enter it.
Select the device in the Devices list.
Choose Image Capture from the “Connecting this [device] opens” pop-up menu.Click “Show device settings” if you don’t see that pop-up menu.

5610 - memory card lock

My memory card is locked with password after firmware upgrade and factory reset. However, I forget my password. (I think that i didn't input any password.) How can I get back the password?
In the worst case, I give up all the data in my memory card. Can i format in order to use my memory card again? Should I use the phone format ie. "Options" > "Format Card"? Or should i pick out the card from the phone and use the computer to format? Thanks.

I haven't tried this method before but I hope that it really works in your case. However, I tried to find a file which store the password by using FExlporer. I couldn't find it. Finally, I gave it up and bought a new one. If you don't have any important information, I suggest that you buy a new card. Don't waste too much time on this.
Indeed, there are many bugs in my 5610 phone just like
1. suddenly auto-reboot the phone, esp listening to music.
2. When I listen to music and someone sends you an sms, the phone is hanged and I have to pick out my battery. Reboot the phone.
3. The phone is unable to translate the incoming sms to a sender's name which is in my phone book.
Now, i dare not to upgrade the firmware. Because it may not be able to solve my problem but lock my memory card. This is the worst nokia phone that i have used.
