6220 Classic Camera flash

When camera flash is set to Auto, shouldn't flash automatic go off when I take a picture in a dark enviorment? With a dark enviorment I mean that if I don't set the Flash to On the picture will be almost black. I just tried it in a room with no window and no light, still it didn't use the flash. With the N73 it works as expected, the flash goes of, but the 6220 Classic, the flash doesn't go off. Is this a bug in the software or maybee it's just my phone.

did you try to update your phone to the latest firmware?

or via FOTA right off your phone.
make sure you always do a back up of your data before doing any of this. if this continues to happen even after update i would take it to nokia care for them to have a look.

  • 6220 classic - camera flash not working

    Hi,
    I have a problem with the 6220 classic's camera flash. When I'm taking pictures, sometimes it does not work at all - no matter if I set the flash mode to "always on" or "red eye".
    What bugs me is the fact that the flash sometimes decides to work, and sometimes it doesn't. At first, when I tried the camera, the flash was always working (IIRC). Now, it rarely works - sometimes, a photo session seems to work and flash goes off every time, but then, at the next session, I just can't get it to work (by session, I mean taking a bunch of pictures and then turning off the camera mode by turning the switch on the phone).
    I tried to figure out what might be going on. At first I tried the phone in a pitch dark place - still, the flash is silent. Then I tried restarting the phone. No luck.
    Any ideas what else I might try (maybe trying to fully-charge the phone and then test the flash, maybe reverting the phone to factory settings), before I turn the phone to service?

  • 6220 classic GPS, camera sound and flash off

    Hello,
    How do I do the following (if possible)on the 6220 classic:
    1.) Use GPS without going online (i've tried everything doesn't seem to work)?
    2.) Turn off the shutter sound when using camera?
    3.) Turn off automatic flash (it keeps switching back on)?
    Thank you for any response.
    Solved!

    Thank you for your response!
    Exactly, it has never locked into position. It searches for satelites but doesnt find them (even if I turn off A-GPS).
    Question: Could you explain what you meant with WLAN as an access point, since the phone doesnt come with WiFi?
    My positioning server is set on 'automatic'
    Accespoint: 'obligatory' (or similar, transl. from swedish)
    Serveraddress: 'something with ...3gpnetwork.org'*
    * sorry, dont want to give it out completly, could be a specifik user setting from my mobile operator.
    Thank you

  • Silent Camera for Nokia 6220 Classic!?

    Greetings from Helsinki Finland!
    Please is somewhere available a silent camera for Nokia 6220 Classic?
    This 5 mb camera is great but it makes so horrible noice that it is impossible to take great photos while e.g. my puppy starts to follow that sound and stops playing!
    It is no way to make this camera silent in this phone, but I know that a good program download would solve this problem.
    Where might I download one?
    Thank you so much! =)
    Jasima

    Looks like they have disabled the ability to turn off camera sounds by disabling the warning tones. There are other solutions, but they also invalidate your warranty, hence we can't discuss them here.
    Have a look at this link. The same applies in lots of other countries and the list gets longer by the day.

  • 5320 expressmusic vs 6220 classic features

    Which has better features and music quality?? 5320 or 6220 classic??
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    i think i read somewhere i reviews that they are comparable in music quality, but if you are looking for a music-minded phone the 5320 is the one to go for. it has about double the music playing time, also runs on Series60, has worse camera (2MP vs 6220 5MP w/xenon flash), and does not have GPS navigation. oh and 6220 classic has 2.5mm audio jack port, not the standard headphones 3.5mm as 5320 has. it all boils down to whether you will be using your phone for imaging/GPS or music mainly. music = 5320, 6220 classic = imaging/GPS. but both are great phones.

  • Partially blurry pictures with 6220 Classic

    I am having trouble with partially blurry pictures and video on my brand new 6220 Classic. The bottom left corner gets blurry almost as if the compression is higer in this area than in others.
    What could this be and should I send it for repair?
    Sample pictures can will be added upon request.

    hey there, i think i now know what is wrong with it. i had a look at your photos and i did indeed see the error, at first i thought it might have been a firmware issue but you have said that you have updated it and the problem still occurs.
    i recall reading a magazine the other day and recalling that they complained that the xenon flash is located immediately under the camera lens (which it shouldn't be really because with flash shots it can light up the bottom left hand corner of the photo). i think this is the reason you are getting blurry artifacts in the bottom of your photos as the flash may be firing, even in daylight (when it is not very visible). as such, there seems to be nothing you can do about this except blame nokia for the illogical placement of the flash.
    i hope this answers the question now

  • Just ordered a 6220 classic -thoughts ?

    I just ordered a Nokia 6220 classic, im excited ....coming from a Nokia 6300 ..... anybody recommend a good thin case, charging stand,...
    thoughts on this phone ? any cool or must have apps, games ?
    Thanks.   

    I have looked at the specs of the classic. I have an N82 and it has the same 5MP and xenon flash. As a user of the camera, I LOVE IT. My friends are always asking me "WOW that is your cellphone?!" The pictures turn out great with the flash. I really enjoy it. I am not sure if that is the reason you bought it though.

  • NSU error on 6220 classic - lost connection

    Hi, I'm new on the forum but not a newbie on computers.
    I've bought a Nokia 6220 Classic with fw 3.06, and installed NSU on Windows Vista SP1.
    During the update to fw 3.23, I get a white screen on the cell phone with "03.23 Local Mode" and Nokia logo in green.
    On the halted NSU it's 28 seconds to finish and after about 3 minutes it says connection was lost with the phone, shortly prompting me to remove the battery and restart it, trying to reconnect. I can't connect to the phone after that. NSU is then closed.
    The phone, otherwise, seems to be working all right - it says that have fw 3.23 installed and all the applicatons I've openned worked so far.
    However, this error is bothering me. What can I do?
    PS: I've tried it 2 more times, always getting the same error at the same part of the update.

    Very True Indeed, I Had The Same Problem & Am Not Able To Figure Out Why. What I Did As a Solution Though is that I reloaded My Firmware & at The Point Where it shows the Nokia LOGO checked My Device Manager & Found An Unknown Device, Manually installed the driver for it by pointing to C:\Program Files\Nokia\Flashing Cable Driver. Worked for me, But still I couldn't understand why the error occurs.
    One Question To You doritosbsb, have you checked ur life timer(*#92702689#)lately? When I checked it out on My 6220c I found that i was running Unusually high. Like If I talk for one Minute it would show a increase in 6hour. MY Current Life Timer reads 0001875.00. The Funny thing is that I had the Phone for Just 5 Days..... Any Ideas?????
    Where R The Nokia GUYS?????? DO SOMETHING......!

  • 6220 Classic and New Battery Fun!

    Hi
    I have a 6220 Classic and purchased a new Nokia battery for it (as a spare) but when I insert it the phone after maybe 10 mins says "Insert Sim Card" but when I put the battery that came with the phone back in all is fine.
    Has anyone else had this problem

    Are you sure you have bought an original nokia battery and not one of the many fakes that circulate through places like ebay?
    If it is an original it is very odd and can't explain why it's doing it. I would certainly return it and try another.

  • 6220 Classic: Ovi Suite Software Update problems

    Hello everyone,
    I am trying to update the firmware of a 6220 Classic via Ovi Suite (2.1.1.1). I connected the phone, and started the software update process. I was informed the current firmaware version is 03.23, and that version 5.15 is available. I proceeded downloading the (148mb) firmware update.
    After that the update process started, and I was informed to ignore all USB connection notifications. Notifications like "Nokia Flash Parent detected" were displayed with one informing me that the driver for one of these "devices" failed to install.
    I then got the "Device recovery" error, stating that Ovi Suite lost connection with my device, and presented me with 4 steps to follow to "help reconnect your device". None of this helped, and I kept on getting the same error. Now I am lost. The 5.15 update is also not available OTA. Luckily the phone was not bricked in the process, and is still working fine at version level 3.23
    Any ideas on how to get Ovi Suite to install the update? My system specs: Windows XP Pro SP3 with latest fixes/updates.
    Thank you.

    I always use Ovi Suite to update 3 phone (5310, 5610, 5800), no problems so far. However once caveat on s60 phone like yours is that when problems like this occur, you could try to update without a memory card inserted. If that fails, hard reset the phone and update the blank phone (back up first before resetting of course). If that still fails, take it to a Nokia Care Center.
