Connect Nokia 1680c-2 to PC

Hi everyone
My mother accidentally deleted an important photo from her Nokia 1680c-2.  I have been searching on the internet and found several good file recovery software.
Tomorrow I should acquire the relevant cable that connects to the USB port of the computer.
My question is, how do you connect the phone to the computer?  I heard that one must install some kind of software, but which software?
Moreover, does the phone appear as a drive letter in Windows, because I read that I wouldn't be able to recover the photo if the phone does not appear as a drive letter?
Thank you.

Welcome to the forum!
Have a look at this post:/t5/Accessories-Car-Phones-and-Other/Nokia-1680-connectivity-with-PC-through-serial-cable/m-p/483762...
As it was never Nokia's intention for 1680Classic to be accessed this way, the issue is sometimes finding the correct "driver" for installation and use of acquired cable!
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

  • Unable to connect Nokia 6230i to PC via DKU-2

    When I tries to connect Nokia 6230i to PC via DKU-2 using Nokia PC Suite, a prompt occurs on phone "Use phone as storage device". On accepting, deactivating message appears on phone and again it prompts for storage device and phone doesn't connects to PC.
    Phone connects to PC via Bluetooth correctly.

    Hi,
    I can not find any other reason for your problem....one thing what you could try to do is set that Shell value from register again (maybe it includes something what I can not see in log file)
    So try this:
    1. Click Start menu, Run and type: Regedit and then OK.
    2. Open key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
    3. Select name Shell, click Menu and Modify.
    4. Clear exist value and write there Explorer.exe again.

  • Absolutely impossible to connect nokia phone in pc...

    For me it's now absolutely impossible to connect nokia phone in pc suite mode. Not the first time for problems with PCsuite either. It has been working shaky for a couple of months but now it absolutely refuses connections in PC suite mode. USB connection are never any problem but I cannot sync the phone in this mode unfortunately so it does not help. Have tried all uninstallations and re-installations possible but nothing helps. Only a total re-install of the computer will probably help. WHY is PC suite such a unstable program! I think the concept is great and very nice but the connection part of this program simply have to be improved soon! Or make it possible to sync the data in USB mode to make the everything so much simpler.
    /Peter
    This time the problems happen with Windows XP and Nokia 6110N but it has been with all software versions, all Nokia phones I've had. 

    2630 Bluetooth. Can anyone suggest a step by step instruction "How to" to connect my Nokia 2630 to my PC through Bluetooth. I believe this is the only way to download my Nokia 2630 information.
    Have to confess - as you can tell already - I'm a bit of luddite and very new to this. I don't know how Bluetooth technology works. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Many thanks. Colin.

  • How to Connect Nokia 2330 Classic with laptop or p...

    Hi All
    I just bought my new nokia 2330 last week, when i try to connect my 2330 classic with my laptop the phone is not detacting.Pls help me in this regard. We connet 2330 with laptop or pc with cable or not???
    - Shree

    Hi all.
    First and all, be aware that there are dozens of Nokia phones, and all have different specifications. If someone buys a phone to take pictures, then the 2330C is a bad choice. The port that the device has, is not a USB port. It is a Nokia proprietary port for service only.
    @shreeg and others with similar issues (altough this is late): check for Bluetooth compatibility first at http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/pc-suites/compatibility-and-download
    @mojojo and others with similar issues (altough this is late): troubleshoot your laptop and mobile phone Bluetooth. Check if your BT drivers are compatible with Nokia suites. Test them with other BT devices (i.e. BT headset, other phone). Also test the pairing at a different location. BT is a radio wave based connection which can suffer from external interference caused by other radio waves emitting devices, or by electromagnetic or electrostatic fields nearby (these are caused by almost anything that runs on electric power)
    @everyone: my advise is for you to check the following web page for info on device specs http://www.forum.nokia.com/Devices/Device_specifications/matrix_all_1.html to know which type of local connections are available on the devices. It's on the "Local connectivity" section.

  • Could not connect Nokia 6303i via USB cable to Win...

    Hello guys in this forum
    Hello driver development group
    This is not a question for help, but more a question for sharing experiences. I recently bought a new Nokia 6303i, worked a little bit with it and finally I wanted to connect it to the PC to enter the contacts from my old phone with the computer keyboard instead of the phonebook keys.
    Well, the installation sounded quite easy at a first glance: Download the Nokia OVI suite, connect the Nokia phone to the PC and go on. I did that way, but it just did not work.
    The PC I'm using is an Acer laptop, Windows 7 64 Bit system, MS Office 2003, Visual Studio 2003/2005, Firefox, Thunderbird and VMWare Workstation, Comodo Firewall and free-av virus scanner installed. Nothing special, nothing I could not handle, especially no games or other special hardware drivers that could interfere -- most software is installed in virtual machines, so the main computer is rather "naked". I connected the phone to the PC in the "Mass storage mode" to get a drive letter, and installed the OVI suite from the SD card. Worked quite well, and finally I re-connected the phone to the Windows PC.
    The phone was detected as "NOKIA" in the Windows explorer. I chose "PC Suite" on the phone and started the OVI suite - but nothing. OVI suite told me: "Detected device: NOKIA. Phone is not in PC Suite mode". Eeeh?!?
    I tried it several times, but no chance. Although "PC Suite" was active on the phone, the phone was not recognized. Ok, I though, either a problem with the drivers or a hardware problem. So let's see what an older operating system would tell me. I switched on a Windows XP 32 Bit system in my VMWare virtualisation software and connected the phone. The phone connected but did not directly work. I had to use the "mass storage mode" setting to get a drive letter. I installed the OVI suite that was shipped on the SD card (which deleted itself from the SD card later -- baaad habit, I was hopelessly searching for it later on, but ok...). Then I disconnected the phone, reconnected, chose "PC suite mode" and... perfect, stable connection, OVI suite was working totally fine! So I disconnected the phone and closed the VMware machine again.
    Ok, so a problem with Windows 7 64 bit. I deinstalled the OVI suite, downloaded the most recent version from the web which obviously was said to support Windows 7 64 bit, installed, reconnected the phone... nothing. Same situation as before.
    I deinstalled OVI suite again and downloaded/installed the most recent version of PC suite -- which was said to contain all connectivity drivers including for Windows 7 64 bit. I connected the phone started PC suite and... well, phone detected, but used in "compatibility mode", although the "PC suite mode" was chosen on the phone. But ok, let's see what I can do in the compatibility mode. Full of hope I clicked on the "address book" in PC suite. The phone reacted, it said "PC suite mode activated". Hoping... Hoping... then it said again "PC suite mode activated". Eeh? It is already activated!?! 10 Seconds later: PC tolds me: "Phone could not be switched to PC suite mode. Shhhhh*t!
    I googled as hell, and then I saw that I should use the PC suite cleaner before installing. Ok, PC suite deinstalled, PC suite cleaner used, PC suite reinstalled, phone connected... nothing, same behaviour.
    Next tip I read: Install the connectivity driver manually. Ok, everything deinstalled (and I mean, everything! All components in the program list that were entitled to be from NOKIA: PC suite, the two drivers and something else I cannot remember). I downloaded the connectivity driver, connected the phone, phone was recognized as "NOKIA" like before. I installed PC suite again and... nothing. Same behaviour. Arrr*h!
    The final tip that really helped: I read somewhere in the web that Windows 7 was using the wrong drivers. I took a look in the control panel, looked up the NOKIA phone in the device manager, took a look to the drivers, and indeed. The driver that Windows 7 was using was somehow from 2008!?! So that was an internal driver of Windows 7 and not the newly installed Windows 7 driver which I manually installed!
    I clicked on the button "Update drivers" for the "NOKIA" phone and manually chose the connectivity drivers in the "C:\Program Files\NOKIA\Connectivity..." or-something-like-that folder. Suddenly the phone was re-recognized: "NOKIA phone USB parent". That was new!
    But now, the PC suite on the PC did not recognize the phone at all andmore. Hmmm, a new look to the device manager revealed the reason: A couple of new devices were detected, but all with an exclamation mark. Drivers not found. But with a little bit of luck... I opened every such device in the device manager and told Windows to update the drivers. It asked me for a path where the drivers were saved, and here I just specified the path of the nokia connectivity drivers again (this "C:\Program Files\NOKIA\Connectivity..." or-something-like-that folder). That worked! Now I got one after the other the COM-port driver, OBEX and etc...
    At the end I startet PC suite... whahoooo, it works! Phone connected and address book editable! Uff. Nice.
    So a deep driver problem.
    Then I did a near-mistake: I wanted to update the operating system on my NOKIA phone. I installed the phone update manager in Windows 7, left the PC suite, started the update manager and it immediately recognized the phone. I started it and in told me: "Do not touch the phone or anything", time 15 Minutes. I waited and waited and saw the phone screen disappearing, but ok. I saw the USB drivers being disconnected and trying to be reinstalled, but Windows did not recognize it. But I did not touch anything. Then, the Hiobs-message from the update manager: "Phone disconnected during update. Please swich on and reconnect". Whaaaaa?!?!?
    Ok, disconnected the phone, switched off, switched on, reconnected. But Windows 7 did not recognize it correctly anymore. Some unknown devices in the device manager, only the "NOKIA phone USB parent" was still working correctly, and there was now an unknown device which I was not able to activate by specifying drivers manually (it was most likely a USB flash device what I figured out later). And the phone behaved strangely, sometimes crashing when hoovering through the menues... EEEhhh.....
    Ok, emergency plan, phone nearly destroyed. I again turned on my VMware and connected the phone to the OVI software in the virtual Windows XP. Still worked fine. I clicked on the update menu item of OVI suite. OVI suite was detecting the phone software, downloaded the new version and started to update. Again it told me: Wait 15 minutes, do not touch anything. And I did. I saw Windows reconfiguring its hardware settings as new hardware was detected, and there were problems in installing a "USB flash device", but the software did not cancel. And finally: Update successful! Uff... I checked the phone (*#0000#), and it was ok. Uuuuh.
    Then I switched off the virtual machine, conected the phone again to Windows 7, but there was still a driver problem. Most devices had an exclamation mark. I manually deinstalled all the NOKIA drivers in the device manager and actuivated the "Delete driver from system" checkbox whereever possible -- including the "NOKIA phone USB parent". I removed the phone from the USB cable and plugged it on again. Now windows re-recognized it as "NOKIA" phone, but again used its own internal -- wrong -- driver set. I switched the driver again as described above to the Nokia Connectivity drivers in the program folder, got again the "USB parent" and the unknown devices, manually specified the drivers for the unknown devices by using the path to the Connectivity drivers and finally I got the situation from before the update: Nokia PC suite running fine, I can access my contacts and do anything I like in Windows 7 64 bit.
    That was a nightmare and took me about two days intensive research and testing. What a mess...
    I hope I could help anyone of you with this when you have trouble installing the PC/OVI suite in Windows 7. And don't try to update the phone in Windows 7, it's dangerous at the moment!
    Probably you guys from the driver development can take a more close look to Windows 7 64 bit and its own pre-installed drivers. Does anyone of you have similar experiences?
    Best regards,
      Mighty Knife

    Uhm, I'm experiencing the same problem with some Linux relase. Unfortunately I was unable to solve the problem if not installing a windows emulator. Maybe you're already familiar with it, but it seems the only solution. Through google I found this, I hope I made you a favor.

  • Problem connecting Nokia N95 to Audi MMI via Audi ...

    Hello again!
    My dad has recently upgraded his phone from his old-ish Motorola RAZR to the N95 and now can't connect properly to the car. He bought the handsfree set when he still had the Nokia 6310, so it's designed for that, but his next phone, the Motorola had no problem synching with the car and everything worked fine. But now, with the new one, it only works as a headset of sorts. The phonebook is inaccessible, and the ringing is only heard when you make the initial connection, and even that the standard ring ring, not the mp3 he has as his ringtone. And from the second auto-connect afterwards, the MMI only mutes the radio, and makes no other sound.
    I've paired my Nokia 6280 with it and it works as it should, addressbook, ringtone and all.
    Is this the problem of the N95 not supporting the old version of Bluetooth, like i've been reading on the forum and can't be resoloved by any other means than getting another phone or can it be solved by a simple firmware upgrade?
    Also, i've tried googling for UHV 1733 and haven't had a single hit. I am confused. :?

    I don't know personally but it has been discusse before somewhere else. Try this link:

    First step of diagnostics would be to double check that your cable is definitely the one which is for use with the 6030 - I just had a look at the Accessories section of Nokia's website, and it doesn't list ANY data cable as being compatible with the 6030. I haven't come across the MobiBrowser software but I suspect this isn't written by Nokia.
    Nokia's software may expect connectivity via different pins etc. that the CA-45 may not be using.
    I would contact the Nokia office in your area for confirmation on cable type. You can find their details here :

  • How to connect nokia 6610 to pc using data cable

    i hav dku-5 connectivity adapter cable and i have installed both driver and pc suite but still i cant connect my nokia 6610 phone to my pc how can i connect it?..

    I believe the DKU-5 cable is no longer supported by the current versions of PCsuite and Ovi Suite. It was replaced by the CA-42. If won;t work if you are trying to use it with the latest version of pcsuite.
    Options are to get hold of a old version of PCsuite or to get the newer cable. There should be an old version of PCsuite on the disc that came ith the phone.

  • Problem connecting Nokia C3 to home wireless route...

    Good day, Nokia!
    I recently bought a Nokia C3-00 WiFi phone but I can't seem to browse my home wireless connection with it. The phone can detect and connect with the wireless network successfully but when I open my mobile browser, it can't load websites, saying "Service not available."
    However, I can connect and browse the internet through other WiFi hotspots, just not my home connection. The router I'm using is LP-8616. It's an AP router, if that helps. Unfortunately, there's no firmware upgrade for this router anymore.
    I've read all the threads about this problem here and all over the internet but still nothing works for me. Hope you or somebody here could help me to finally solve this problem. More Power!

    Allsolution from another post, see /t5/Cseries/C3-wifi-problem-connect-to-wlan-but-internet-not-work/m-p/950115#M14517. Found out how to solve the problem of connecting via WLAN in the following way (the phone was able to connect to the Internet only through the GSM provider network):
    Step 1: Menu> Settings> Configuration> Personal Settings> Add> Web or Streaming or any other (Just add, needs no other settings)
    Step 2: Menu> Settings> Configuration> Default config. settings (choose MyWeb, Personal Settings or the name created at step 1)
    Step 3: Menu> Settings> Configuration> Personal settings (delete the field created in step 1) then go to Menu> Settings> Configuration> Preferred access point (choose one of the available options)
    Now you can open your browser and try to connect. It should ask what method you choose (WLAN or Access Point Preferred)
    If your phone does not want to be connected via the GSM provider network, the user can manually enter settings for defining an Access Point (Step 4)
    Step 4: Menu> Settings> Configuration> Personal Settings> Add> Access Point (check with GSM provider for account settings)
    Step 5: Menu> Settings> Configuration> Preferred access point (select the field you created earlier)
    I know that what I wrote above may seem like science fiction for a user who is not accustomed to butoneasca phone and non-stop, but I assure you that the operation should take no longer than 5 minutes.

    You may need to purchase a third-party syncing product, such as DataPilot. I am not sure whether this product works under Rosetta. There likely are other third-party products out there. Perhaps Nokia has something, as well.
