6300 memory card

I know that the book says that a 2GB card is the maximum that can be used in the 6300, but just wondered if, now that I have updated the software(firmware?) to the latest version, whether this has any impact on the size of card that can be installed? Anyone out there that can answer or tell me who to contact for an answer? Thanks

If the upper limit is 2GB, that means that the phone does not have an SDHC-compatible card reader in it, only straightforward SD. This also means that 2GB is the real limit and that it is dictated by hardware. 2GB is the largest non-HC size available.

Help! nokia 6300 memory card problem

i bought sd 2gb memory card and it won't let me download more than 500 mb onto it! the memory status shows that there is plenty left but if i try to download any more - or even move an image from phone to memory card - it tells me that operation failed! i did format the card and it didn't help
help!

try to reinstall your current firmware (after backing up all your important data first) or see if there is an update for your 6300 via nokia software updater. but i think there is a problem with your memory card rather than your phone, as can happen with normal USB flash drives when copying files to them, they suddenly give up and start giving strange errors. so maybe try replacing your card with a better quality new one.
hope this helps

6300 - memory card issue

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could give me the idiots guide to putting new memory card into my nokia 6300 please. I have bought a SanDisk 2gb micro SD card but when I put it into the phone, go to gallery and the memory card icon it comes up with 'memory card not formatted' and then 'operation failed'. I can not find any option anywhere on the phone to format the card. When I click on options on the memory card icon it gives me all the options apart from the one to format the card. I still have my old card which works when I put it back in and has the option to format so I really am stuck for what I am doing wrong.
I hope someone is able to help this dumb blonde!!
Cheers x

try formatting the card with a memory card reader.and then use in 6300.
tongue is too confused on what to speak

Nokia 6300: Lost memory card = Lost applications

Hi
Does anyone know if I can download the Collection software that came on the included memory card of my new 6300?
I somehow lost the microSD card and no way I'm i retracing my steps to try and find it. Ive ordered a bigger memory card but wanted to download the applications that originally came with the phone.
I've tried a few routes Nokia/Orange but no one seems to know. I'm looking to anyone out there who may have an idea.
Many thanks
Barry

I had the same problem and contacted Nokia help email,
Solution
1. Install Nokia PC suite on your PC.
2. Have original memory card with games etc on it in your phone.
3. Connect your phone by cable to your PC and select Nokia mode on your phone and File manager in PC suite.
4.Select 'memory card' in the window that appears and select all folders on the card, transfer the folders to your 'desktop' on your PC.
5. Place your new 1GB card into a usb card reader and transfer the folders from your desktop to the new card.
6. Replace the new card for the old and all should be OK, you are supposed to be-able to transfer direct from the PC to your phone but the 'Games & Collection' folders won't move !.

Old Nokia 6300 to new 6300 Nokia "memory card"

Please can someone advise me on how to enable the old memory card into the new 6300 phone. Same phone but memory card wont work, tried formatting via pc and no luck. Thanks

Hi
This means, that your new phone doesn't see mem card inserted into slot?
Maybe slot is out of order or memory card is bust. But if computer see it, card should be good. I don't supose you put it from the wrong side.
Check with any other memory card.

6300 games etc not found on memory card anymore

as said above, i tried to copy (not cut) everything over to a 2GB card, but some things were write protected.
so i put the old card back in to the phone (including all the exsisting files), but now theres no games, even thought you can explore the memory card on the PC and it's all there?
6300

got the files & put them on to the new micro sd card & their still not being recognized.
i'm getting a data cable delivered in the next few days, so i'll update the firmware first and see how it goes, if not, i'll take it into the nokia care centre near me

Copying memory card? Protected applications

I have a new 6300 and I have also bought a 2gb memory card to store music on. The problem is that it wont allow me to copy the 128mb card as the pre installed applications are protected. What can i do. The app's are Opera Mini, Converter, etc.

Hi you can try and copy them onto the phone memory then put in your new card then copy them back. If that does not work send me a pm and i will send you the stuff i have them saved on my pc.

Move messages to memory card -- 6230i

Hello,
My phone can barely hold up to 200 messages that's because the phone memory is somehow small.
Is there something I can do to have my phone memory on memory card rather than phone memory?
Right now, I am doing it old school, I connect through PC Suite, and move them manually after I've created a folder in the memory card.
So please let me know if there's anything I can do about it. I simply like keeping my messages and not deleting them.
Thanks!

I still don't think series 40 phones like the 6300 can store messages on the card. You can squeeze a few 1000 into phone memory. Think the most I ever had on the 6233 was around 3000 before deleting them all.
One thing that you also have to keep in mind is the more messages that are in the inbox or sent items the slower the phone will be when opening the inbox or sent items.
Someone once said that either the 6500 classic or 6500 slide could store messages on the card but I don't know for sure. These are also series 40 phones.
S60 smartphones (like the N95 or N82) do allow you to store a near unlimited number of messages on the memory card, instead of phone memory.

Received items straight onto memory card?

Not sure why, but for some reason my memory card has stopped allowing me to put received files staight onto my memory card.
For example, if someone trys to bluetooth me an mp3 it will save the file to my received files area. However, due to a lack of space on my phone I cannot receive the file a majority of the time.
If anyone can tell me how to get my phone to start saving files straight to my memory card i would be very grateful

The 6300 is a S40 phone. It does not have the option to have inbound messages (inbound bluetooth transfers count as messages) stored on a memory card.

Transferring contacts onto memory card

Hi there
I want to sync 1200 contacts from Outlook onto my Nokia 6300. But when i sync my Outlook with the phone, only 1,000 contacts are synced. Is there any way of ensuring all my Outlook contacts are saved on the 2gb memory card in the phone?
Cheers

The limit seems to be 1000 contacts - doesn't matter where it's stored. I had a Sony Ericsson handset (K750i) that had a limit of 500 contacts. Heaven only knows why manufacturers impose these random limitations!

SDHC Memory cards

Simple question, can the Nokia 6300 handle a 4GB micro SDHC memory card? I'm currently using a 1GB micro SD card without problem.
If not can it be resolved with a software upgrade to the phone and is this likely to be available in the near future? The phone reckons it is on the most up-to-date software currently available.

Exactly.
Further explanations on the difference between SD and SDHC are to be found on this page.

Problem with 5300 and 2 GB memory card

Hi,
I just bought 5300 phone and 2 gb micro sd card, sandisk.
And I am now storing music files to the card via usb connection and phone is shown to pc as a disk.
It transfers 990 MB of music and after that is says card is full.
From gallery it shows memory card as 2 gb card, and full status is 990 MB, free fine also. I tried transfer also with music manager same result. Like the 1 gb is the limit somehow.
Is it ?

I also have problems with my new Kingston 2GB micro SD card on Nokia 5300. However quite different. I uploaded appr. 1.5 GB music and it worked fine. Then I switched the phone off. When I tried to switch it on again the screen started to flash and after 15 sec the phone switched off itself. It took for a while till I discovered that the problem somehow relates to the memory card. When it was removed the phone worked fine (no flashing, no switch off). I reformatted the memory card and everything worked fine till the next switch off. Then it started again. I updated the software (V 04.70), but it didn't help. I'm not 100% sure but it seems to me that the problem relates to the music player which tries to update the music library after the switch off and somehow it freezes the phone.
Any idea how to solve this?
In short because I don't have a 5300 - No ...
However - something to try is to see if your card works without problems on a PC (via USB card reader) or laptop (some have memory card slots built in)
Lastly on Nokia's 5300 webpage it states that they only recommend using authorised cards ... it might be worth seeing if you experience the same issue with Nokia's own 2Gb microSD card ?

How can I get Verizon to return my memory card- There screw up

After screaming about 1x a week with this new pre-paid SAMSUNG phone, I finally was able to get the store to take the phone and replace it. Sadly, I was so frustrated with Verizon for my phone never working, and getting the run around, that I was glad to get the "we will get you a new one".
Wasn't happy that they can't just give me a new one off the wall. (that would be 50 bucks please. (phone was 30 days old).
SO, The guy behind the counter advised me, I would get a new one. Took battery, I asked if things were backed up, and he said "yes", the backup synch was set up. "like OK".
So, removed battery and the lid, and the case I bought for it, took my old phone and said wait for new one. (came in today).
I didn't even think of getting my 8GB memory card from the old phone at the time I left the store.
This was 3 days ago (26th of Dec). Today, my new phone came in, it was not synching, not doing the backup right, and then I realized my memory card was not there.
Nicely called the help desk thinking I was calling the store where i returned the phone. NOPE, got tech support in a different state after 14 minutes of listening to switch witch and running around with button pushing. Just to be told "contact the store diectly".
Headed to store, advised of what happened, and the cheerful guy with hte IPAD, typing your name, pretty much said " to bad". It's goneft
No help. Just me trying to stay calm, after the head-aches with this phone. And now I am out an 8GB memory card, that Verizon, in their haste, never took time to remove (but did the battery), and I forgot to remove it myself.
Now, I want Verizon to replace the memory card. Their phone was bad, every week complained about this phone, and in 30 days, I now had to get it replaced.
I take error in not remembering to get it. BUT, figured the techs behind the scenes would have thought of this.
Anyone know of whom I can contact to ask VZN for a new card? I lost some vital pics and info from my realtor, and have to bite that, but this wouldn't have happened, if I could have gotten some satisfactory service, and I still ended up 3 days without a phone.

I admit, I did screw up for not checking. I was just soo steamed with the customer support and going back and forth with phone and offices in Charleston, SC and here in VA, I was just getting frustrated with this phone that i had for 1 week, and couple with the craziness of the hustle trafflc of customers during the holidays.
Just a lot of crazy here, but my new phone is in, I had to get the service center to reset things, as the backup synch wasn't right, and I will get a new card.
I just wanted a new phone that worked, and oversaw the issues. This isn't the first time I had to return a phone, but last time, it was a slower pace, and no issues, and I reminded myself to get the card out.
Got 99% of my contacts. Just wishing there was somehow to track the phone, and have hope, but it was nothing that was life critical.. And cost of new cars is cheap.
Chalk up to "pay attention".... but oh, the frustration of 6 visits to the stores in 32 days I had that phone. Ahh!
Happy New Year, and thanks for the replies....

Not able to Delete the data from Memory card

Hi all,
I have bought a new nokia 3120 classic.it is working fine but recently i have received some data from my friend.
Then suddenly the problem begins like.. when i take a photo.. i am getting error like the image is not in the format and i am not able to save that.And also, the main problem is I am unable to delete the data from my memory card.
Every time after deleting i am getting the same data.
Why this happening..is it because of VIRUS?? If so how to delete the virus from my memory card??
When i contacted the nokia care people in bangalore they are saying that they can offer the service of formatting the memory card??
Except that my Phone is working fine..the problem is with Memory card!!!
Please help me...

you can actually format your memory card first see if you have such option on your phone to format directly from the phone if that is not possible you can always use a card reader and reformat your card using your pc. just understand that all data from that memory card will be lost unless you do a back up of it. if you do a back up and restore the data to the memory card after reformat you might get the same issue so be careful as to what you will decide to do with the data from the card. once you format your card it should all be good unless the card is corrupted itself which can also happen. but first try with the reformat and see if it works out for you.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....
