ISync & Nokia 6680

I cannot get iSync (v 2.3) to work with my Nokia 6680 mobile phone. Each time I try, I get the message saying that I need to install the iSync Agent on my phone. The message with the Agent is received by my phone (via Bluetooth) but when I click on the message on my phone, nothing appears to happen. It is possible that the settings on my phone bar me from installing applications, but I dont know how to bypass that. When I called the Nokia helpline I was told "we dont have anything to do with Apple"!

Hi,
I'm having the same problem. I spoke with Apple Support, and while the chap was very nice and spending much time with me to track the problem down, the only solution he could offer was that iSync requires that you update the firmware on the Nokia in order to install the latest version of the iSync agent.
This of course is impossible without a PC and the USB->Nokia cable, neither of which I have available to me.
I hope you are not so hobbled.

Trouble with Nokia 6680 and iSync

I have a Nokia 6680 and an iMac. Recently I wanted to clean up my contact list but I'm having problems in this.
Contacts created in the phone get transfered to my computer with iSync easy, but I can't transfer all my contacts created in my iMac to the Nokia 6680.
It used to work sincronizing a hundred contacts, but now I can't do it with 40 or 50. It's supposed to work all the ways but it doesn't.
What should I do? Is there any kind of limitation with my phone or iSync?

Hi trav!
We're having the exact same problem. If you search this forum (and others), you'll find more threads regarding this issue..

It seems to be impossible to get in touch with Nokia developers. They are probably on vacation..
We've struggled with this for about 2 weeks now,and the most likely reason is:
1. It's a bug
2. The locator url has changed since the phone has two cameras.

Nokia 6680 can't be added in iSync 3.0 - fresh Leopard install

In Leopard (10.5), the Bluetooth setup assistant only gives me the option to use my Nokia 6680 as a modem. No options to sync it with the address book or the calendar. iSync finds the device, but says 'iSync cannot connect to this device'.
I have been able to sync my address book and calender in Tiger for some time now (I don't remember in which minor version update it was introduced).
The phone is still listed as supported on Apple's web pages. It is also mentioned in /Applications/iSync.app/Contents/PlugIns/ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice/Contents/ PlugIns/PhoneModelsSync.phoneplugin/Contents/Resources/MetaClasses.plist
However, it does not have its own folder under /Applications/iSync.app/Contents/PlugIns/ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice/Contents/ PlugIns like many other phone models.
The Nokia software on my phone is (no vendor lock etc.)

Any idea of what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks! Any answer would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,

Thanks, man!
I didn't think of deleting the old iSync agent on the phone - being used to the Mac just working out of the box
Mine also hung on 33 % progress for five minutes, but then it progressed and finished; importing all my contacts and calendars from the phone.
The 33 % for five minutes progress hang happened only on the first sync.

Capture picture with nokia 6680

I'm developing an application for Nokia 6680, and need to access the videoplayer through my gui so I can capture a picture and send it to a webserver.
I'm having trouble initializing the player. It throws a MediaException with Symbian OS error -5, "the operation requested is not supported".
It works just fine in WTK 2.2 and with SE K700.
I've also checked the supports.video.capture system-property, and it returns true.
Here's the code:
class CameraForm extends Form implements CommandListener {
private final MyMIDlet midlet;
private final Command exitCommand;
private Command captureCommand = null;
private Player player;
private VideoControl videoControl;
private boolean active=false;
private StringItem messageItem;
   public CameraForm(MyMIDlet midlet){
      super("Camera");
      this.midlet=midlet;
      messageItem = new StringItem("Message","start");
      append(messageItem);
      exitCommand=new Command("Exit",Command.EXIT,1);
      addCommand(exitCommand);
      setCommandListener(this);
      //initialize camera
      try {
         player = Manager.createPlayer("capture://video");
         player.realize();
         //Grab the videoControl and set it to the current display
         videoControl=(VideoControl)(player.getControl("VideoControl"));
         if(videoControl != null){
             append((Item)(videoControl.initDisplayMode(VideoControl.USE_GUI_PRIMITIVE,null)));
        captureCommand = new Command("Capture",Command.SCREEN,1);
        addCommand(captureCommand);
        messageItem.setText("OK");
    } else{
        messageItem.setText("No video control");
} catch(IOException ioe){
      messageItem.setText("IOException:"+ioe.getMessage());
} catch(MediaException me){
      messageItem.setText("MediaException cameraForm(): "+me.getMessage());
} catch(SecurityException se){
      messageItem.setText("Securityexception:"+se.getMessage());
}Thanks!

Peter,
Sorry for the late reply, have been really busy the past weeks.
Yesterday I got another Nokia 6680 on which my MIDlet wouldn't run. Got the MediaException -5 (meaning "Not Supported") again.
I tried the code *#7370# to hard reset the phone (see Step 1 below), with no success. But I did manage to get it working (after continuing with the procedure below).
The following explains the steps I followed:
NOTE: Backup all data on your phone before continuing as all will be lost!
Step 1:
a.) Enter the code *#7370#
b.) Answer [Yes] to the following prompt: "Restore all original phone settings? Phone will restart."
c.) Enter the security code when the phone prompts for it. (Default: 12345)
d.) The phone will now restart.
e.) Once restarted, all data will have been erased and the phone will ask you for some settings.
Step 2: This is a bit tricky...
a.) Turn off the phone.
b.) Press and hold the following keys: [Answer] + [*] + [3]
[Answer] = Answer key (green phone)
[*] = Star key
[3] = Numeric 3 key
c.) While holding the above keys, press the [Power] button to switch on the phone.
d.) Once again all data will have been erased and the phone will ask you for some settings.
Step 3:
Follow Step 1 again.
Install your application after each step and test to see if it isn't maybe working. My MIDlet only started working after completing Step 3. I am not sure if Step 1 is actually necessary, but I have listed it as this is the path I did folow.
That is it, hope this works for you.

Urgent Advice Nokia 6680

Hi. I need a big help. I own a Nokia 6680 that has lasted me for five years until yesterday. I usually maintain a four digit numeric password to access my cell whenever it is turned on. The digits are 2300. Once the password is entered then I will be have full access to use all the functions of the cell. Now the problem is that, the key pad number for Number 2 is not working! All other key pads are working. I took it to the local Nokia Care showroom where they say the problem is not the keypad but the board itself. I think they said the mother board is no longer working. However, if the motherboard is not working, then none of the keypads should work. Everything is working except for keypad Number 2. The Nokia Care persons tried replacing the keypad but still nothing worked. I am happy the 6680 has lasted me all these years, but the problem now is that I have more than 600 contact details on the phone memory that I am not able to access. Is there a WAY to break the password? Any software or device? Once the password is broken, then I can access the cell. Every few months I backup the phone memory details on the memory card but without accessing it on this cell, I am not able to retrieve it. That is the miserable part. I was told there is a software known as Noki Crack. Does this work? Or is there a simpler way? Please advice. Thank you.

Okey, I understand. Only a Nokia care point can fixe this for you as this is related to hw issue with your keyboard.
You can find your nearest Nokia care point here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/repair-and-recycle/repair/care-points

Hi. I've recently been given a Nokia 6680 which I've had unlocked and started using. I've found that when I plug my charger in the phone indicates it is charging but once I pull the charger out (after various periods of time) it shows up as low battery. I have tried 2 different chargers and 2 different batteries. I am currently using an old nokia phone to charge up a battery to put in the 6680 every day. Help? Am I doing something wrong??
Prior to it being unlocked it charged up no problem.
If you have a new phone you need to keep it on charge for 16 hours. Once the battery is fully charged the charge indicator stops moving which would tell you that the battery is full.

Nokia 6680 unable to send texts

I've had a Nokia 6680 for about 7/8 months now. In that time its every so often decided its memory is full (when it isnt) and be unable to send texts. This was normally fixed by turning it off and on. About a week ago this stopped fixing the problem. Over the next few days I had to put up with not being able to send any texts. 3 days ago I hard reset it a few times and it fixed the problem. However the problem has returned again. I really dont want to have to hard reset my phone every few days since thats a bit annoying.
Has anyone come accross this before? (Phone memory is 66% free, RAM is 99% free and MEmCard is 40% free).

Very odd, don't really know what to suggest about that one!
Try entering the number as 0044 instead of +44.
If you have delivery reports enabled, try disabling them or vice versa.
Make sure "Reply via same centre" is set to "no" in the messaging options.
Can't really thing of much else to try! My guess is that it's an odd network fault that is blocking it.

Nokia 6680 new firmware?

Hi guys,
Did Nokia realese new firmware for Nokia 6680?:
v5.04.40
20-11-06
RM-36
I was just checking for the new firmware for Nokia 6680,
via Nokia Software Updater. And I was surprise to find there are
new updates. Then I upgrade my 6680 from v5.04.07 to v5.04.40.
After upgrade, I notice that there are some difficulties in making & receiving calls, and sending SMS. I'm staying in Malaysia and using Celcom 3G. I refer the provider on this matter, and they said their network is ok.
Could it be the upgrades?
What are the changelog for v5.04.40

Yeah, that's what I thought. An upgrade is suppose to improve the use. Unless, the new firmware has a tiny bug, or it's an unofficial release. I looked up in the Internet, so far, no info about the new firmware.
Can Nokia release an unofficial firmware?
Thanks for the help.

Nokia 6680 Spanish language lost

I own a Nokia 6680 with product code 0521642 brought in Spain. Today I updated it with NSU (never had updated it before) and it has rebooted with english language. It doesn't give me the option to change it, only English, German and Turkish are available as languages. What should I do?

Your 6680 was not a Spanish version originally, the update restored the original languages.
If you take it to a local service centre and explain situation they can advise you further.
First use the search to see if your question has already been answered...
Secondly I will not knowingly assist in breaking the forum rules.
My information is always changing, what I post at the time is usually true.

Welcome to Nokia discussions board!
Thank you for your post. To update your Nokia 6680, you need to download Nokia PC Suite on your PC and install it. After the installation, open it and plug in your device to your PC with the USB cable, once it recognises your device it should search automatically for the latest update.
