No ....I have been on the phone to T Mobile today, to see what they can do as the 6280: 1. Crashes randomly when texting 2. Randomly loses numbers from it's memory 3. Has software which may have been cleverly designed by Nokia marketing people, so that you can only view your 'backed-up' personal contacts when you have a NOKIA PHONE connected! ie Viewing my contacts will be very very difficult if in future I decide not to upgrade to another Nokia phone.... 4. Has no camera function. T-Mobile have offered me a swap, but I know that I lose my rights if I take this. They have referred me to Nokia, Nokia, what can you do please? I'm a business user who wants a phone that works without problems, and can back up my contacts for now and the future should I choose a phone that is not a Nokia phone. If Nokia are not prepared to do anything (???Response awaited) then I will go to my local trading standards as I consider the phone to be unfit for the purpose for which it was sold to me....

    CAMERA ON STANDBY & DO NOT KNOW HOW TO CHANGE IT?
    Since the phone has come back from repair I can not use the camera feature, I have no idea how to remove "Camera on standby"
    Regards

    They always perform a software update after a repair, but it sounds like in your case something went wrong here.
    You don't say what kind of phone you have. If it is an S60 "Symbian" model, you can reformat it with the code *#7370#; if the phone is compatible with NSU (www.nokia.com/softwareupdate) you could reinstall the latest software yourself using your PC.
    Failing both of those, you would have to go back to the repairer and tell them a new problem has been caused by the work they did.

  • 6280 camera better than N80

    Has anyone else compared the N80 and 6280 cameras?
    Sis-in-law has just got a 6280 and the cam is alot better than the N80.
    I thought the N-Series was meant to be superior top other Nokias?
    I'm starting to wish I'd gone for the 6280 instead after having a look at her phone.

    OK, image quality is better when printed or on PC.
    But wouldn't you agree on my screen and blurring comments?

  • Nokia 6101 - camera on standby?

    hi,
    I wonder if anyone could possibly advise me what to do with my phone (nokia 6101). I tried to use the camera recently only for it to come up with "operation failed" after a couple of seconds, and then "camera on standby". After pressing continue it again came up with "operation failed" and it goes on and on etc...
    I've had problems with the phone before (dead pixels after 1 day) and had it replaced in around Jan/Feb, so I was wondering if the warranty with nokia is still valid on this 2nd phone (if there even is one), and if the above problem could be fixed!
    Thanks

    Same problem on my 6101 (3 weeks old). Removing both the battery and SIMM for serveral minutes worked once but the fault has returned. Looks like I'll have to send it away for repair or replacement under warranty.

  • C2-01 Camera Problem - Displays Camera On Standby

    My cellphone is Nokia c2-01. When clicked on camera, it shows 'camera on standby'. My memory care is ok and has large space. I don't know how to fix it. Please help. Thanks

    That is quite a common issue. In all cases, I am aware of, this is a hardware failure: Your camera is broken.

  • Is The 6280 camera really this bad?

    6280: > k510: >
    Click to enlarge.
    My k510 with 1.3mp take better photos then the 6280 with 2mp.
    And swithcing from low quality to high quality in the options does absolutely nothing.
    So should i replace this phone, or all the 6280 have this poor camera quality?
    Thx in advance.

    i understand, it's just something about nokia's camera phones, the pictures are always not sharp or clear, but sony ericsson i think have the best quality, take the phone back if you don't like the quality of the images, though i don't really need crisp quality

  • Camera on Standby - Memory Full - Problem Solved o...

    It's not THE PHONE MEMORY OR EVEN THE MEMORY CARD CAPACITY IT'S ALL ABOUT THE IMAGE DESTINATION FOLDER HAVING TOO MANY FILES OR TOO MANY MBs!
    Thanks to some guy mentioning that this might be rooted in Nokia's formatting of the MicroSD card I was lead in the right direction to solve this problem on my phone!!!!  Indeed I have my phone set to route all pictures to the Memory Card. My memory card is big, there is plenty of room on it....but I was getting the dreded error mentioned in the subject line. I could go into the IMAGE folder and delete a picture or two and get rid of the problem. But it never dawned on me to go to that folder and MARK ALL the pictures, then MOVE them to a NEW FOLDER that I created.
    This steps to doing this are less than obvious. You have to create your new folder on the memory card, ok easy, then go to your overstuffed destination folder and MARK ALL, then MOVE, then select the place to move them by using the OPTIONs button to drill down to the new folder instead of the top level of the MEMORY CARD.
    Now you might be able to skip moving these and just create a new folder and in CAMERA MODE drill down thru the options to get to Settings and change the destination to save the photos/videos. I didn't try this. I wanted it all to stay as I had it, going to the IMAGE folder as Nokia originally set it up.
    THIS SOLVED MY PROBLEM. I was scratching my head on this for a year!!!! And DUH it was really right in front of me... I KNEW the folder would take more pics as soon as I deleted some. But it didn't dawn on me to EMPTY that destination folder to another folder on the phone. I knew I could have backed them all up to my PC. Just was too lazy. 
    I think what threw me for the longest time was that I knew the memory card had PLENTY of room. So really this was a formatting issue Fat16?  that restricted the number of files or the total capacity in MB in any one particular folder. 
    Yahoooooo my phone goes into CAMERA MODE like a snap again!   And taking pictures is no problemo!!!
    Now if I could only get that old 5300 I have to boot again. That's another issue.  

    I have the same problem with my nokia 7100s-2, when i try to take pictures it says camera is on standby.The phone is not using a memory card.

  • Nokia 6280 camera

    Hi! everyone
    I have a nokia 6280 which has a 2 mega pixel camera.The camera works fine when there is enough light to take pictures or video,otherewise there are lot of spots or grains..i could say the quality is horrible.when you immedeatly turn the camera towards a light source the spots vanish.
    Is it a hardware or a software problem?.
    Appreciate your time...
    thanks...

    This pretty much happens with all digital cameras let alone phones which have a camera attached with them. I get this on my Canon SD550 digital camera (which has now become redundant I have the N95 !).
    I don't know the exact details of why it goes "grainy", but it happens to me as well - luckily on some of the N series phones (if not all) you get a flash so it isn't THAT bad .. but definitely off putting !
    Regards,

  • Camera 6280

    every time i go to use the camera on my 6280 it says camera on standby please help thank you

    make sure that the battery is fully charged, if it is and the camera is still not initialising, then reset your phone to factory settings, remembering to backup all your data first. if this isn't working, then look for a firmware update online for your phone, if not possible none available, then all you can do is take your phone to your nearest Nokia Care Centre for them to take a closer look at it.
