Netqin ... or any firewall on Nokia 301

Hey,
i used a workaround on my C5-00 (dont use this phone now, cause the quallity of phonecalls was pretty bad) for whatsapp: Used netqin Firewall to block whatsapp internetconection. I don´t wanna be online all the time.
Is it possible to turn off the internetconnection in a s40 device, like the nokia 301? My Samsung Galaxy has a option to switch the mobile internet on and off.
If not, is it possible to get a similar workaround like explained above? (Firewall to block whatsapp... only establish a connection if needed) Does Netqin runs on s40?
cheers

hmmm would be super nice if apps are only active if they are on the screen ... more isnt really needed i think ... Problem will be a internetconnection out of my home country ... 3G is pretty expensive there for me
i dont need a smartphone ... just a bit internet for whatsapp, emails.... nothin more.. no apps.. no maps.. no nothin...
i see that i opened this thread in a wrong Topic... can anyone (Mod) change this thread to the right Topic?

Nokia 301 Feature Request: Missed calls/messages n...

Hi,
I just bought a Nokia 301 dual sim phone. I'm satisfied with it except one thing - IT DOESN"T HAVE MISSED CALLS/MESSAGES NOTIFICATION. How come such important and basic function not implemented? No one will check his phone regularly and there is no way to know wether I have missed calls or messages. It should keep making a beep until I read it. I believe this function could be implemented easily in software, even by polling the status at a constant interval or setting up a counter which issues interrupts. Any Nokia staff can answer this questtion?
Thanks.
Leonard

This is a feature which the majority of phone users do not want, and that's why Nokia phones have not done it since the early 2000s when Nokia phones used to beep the morse code for SMS.
There are two primary reasons why a person might not read a message at the time it comes in:
He didn't hear it, maybe he was in a noisy place and didn't hear or maybe the phone is in a different room.
He heard it but was prevented from reacting by other circumstances.
If you are away from your phone, there are visual cues when you get back to it that a message has come in. If you are walking down a busy street with your phone in your pocket, there is also in the vast majority of phones a vibrate option to give an alternative kind of notification. If you are driving a car responsibly on a journey of some length, it would becoming annoying after a while if your phone was beeping in your briefcase in the back of the car, or if you leave your phone on your desk at the office whilst you are elsewhere, the repeated beeping could be just as annoying to other people.

Nokia 301 - worked 5 minutes

Hey guys,
I just bought a Nokia 301, after starting it up for the first time and knowing with all the bugs that are on the forum, I decided to updatet it to latest firmware. It downloaded the update, went onto installing it, and after it I got a white screen and after that the phone went dead. I left around 30 minutes, thinking it was working on the background, took the battery out, put it back again, plugged it in the charger but still nothing.
Holding the power button sometimes it vibrates, but in other cases it's just a black screen in a black plastic case... I contacteted the service and they promissed an exchange phone in 2 weeks...
I am just wondering if there is any chance to turn the phone on, or I have to wait for the replacement phone? I didn't even made a call with it, like I said it worked for 5 minutes.
This is far the worst ever experience I ever had with a phone, so far the record was with a Motorola that lasted 4 hours.

csimby:
yep, unfortunately the only option would be to take the phone to the a Nokia Care service point (or the shop where you bought it) and get it either reflashed or replaced.
could you send me the phone IMEI number via private message? That would help us to investigate whether there is something wrong with the update package you downloaded.

3. In Personalise view setting, add few more option to have quick access on front screen display.
4. When we open menu, we need to navigate using up-down-right-left key, instead after opening menu we can have keypad shortcut from 0 to 9 atleast.
5. For demo application, allow us access to remove once demo expired. This will freeup space.
6. Wall paper for active screen is already available to user to customize but we can not change wall paper for manu and when locked.
7. Mail application does not show bigger size mails.
8. If we rename any video file extention to say from video.3gp to video.txt but still video player detect that video. There is no way to hide any video or image or any file. Need to have some way.

Nokia 301 random crash

My Nokia 301 crashes and reboots randomly when I make a call or shoot a photo.
It freezes, goes white-screen, and reboots. Seems the crash occurs more times when I use a bigger-sized wallpaper (I mean data size) or shoot a more-colourful photo.
I have updated to firmware v2.51, battery is fine. Currently no more crash when calling, but often crashes when shooting a photo. I went to shoot natural scences like flowers, grass and sky. The phone crashed agian and again.
Maybe the phone has trouble handling complex images?
BTW, after I updated to v2.51, when I try to download SW update again, it always says "404" before any other message is displayed.

I have to same problem with camera and like your problem freeze just when the photo is big size.
Nooooookia, I want UPDATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I buy this phone for 3.15 MP camera and camera not working. How is this posible ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nokia 301 problem - service messages / balance enq...

I bought a Nokia 301 mobile for one of my relatives at Christmas and am having such problems with it on Sainsbury's Mobile.
I popped the SIM card in, expecting the internet setting to be sent by text - but nothing. Then to make matters worse, every time I call to ask for a balance - it displays text as a service message that is completely unreadable! Like it is full of nonsensicle characters.
I'm just lost as to what's wrong with it. Even if I could find the internet settings but Sainsbury's website is useless. The balance enquiry is a real problem though - could it be a SIM card problem?
Any help much appreciated!!

Adam14 wrote:
it also seems strange that these settings aren't text when I put the SIM card in. Other network SIM's I have put it, these settings are all on automatically.
Receiving those settings automatically is not normal especially for big carriers like Vodafone. Not sure about Vodafone UK. Actually, your carrier could change one tiny piece in their global settings and a Nokia would work instantly. Anyway, Sainsbury’s says: ‘If you don’t receive the settings within 24 hours of activating your SIM, text WEB to 40127 for free’.
Adam14 wrote:
I am just dialling the usual number of *＃1345＃ but the text that apears as a Service Message is just crazy characters like Ω. I have never seen this before. The same when I call *＃100＃ for my number - just rubbish text.
OK. That is USSD. Because you cannot do anything wrong, like a wrong setting, this is a bug. Here in Nokia Support Discussions, we cannot fix such a bug. Therefore, you should report to the mentioned parties because only those have a chance to fix that bug. Not a solution but as a workaround, please, check your balance via the computer-voice at 40775.

Nokia Suite Support for Nokia 301

Hello
Does anyone know what the official Nokia position is regarding Nokia Suite supporting the Noklia 301? I'd like to be able to sync music, install any future firmware upgrades etc etc without needing to use a mobile data connection. If Nolkia aren;t going to upgrade Nokia Suite to support the 301 is there going to be an alternative?

To all members of this board that purchased Nokia 301 Dual SIM here's what you should know.
1. Nokia Suite http://www.nokia.com/nokiasuite is practically useless
You cannot backup your messages and contacts . (see attached screenshot stuck at 50%)
You cannot sync your calendar and contacts to OUTLOOK
You cannot choose what SIM you'll send after you compose SMS at Nokia Suite
You cannot backup your ALL your contacts. There is a feature that you can export to CSV but it's not complete. The numbers that are saved in your phone will not be exported via CSV.
Buttomline. Just use the backup feature of your phone. And save it on your SD card. I'm now looking a buyer of this phone. Perhaps I'll just buy a cheap android phone that I can sync calendars and contacts.

Allow Nokia suite to support Nokia 301

going further is Nokia Suite supports Nokia 301 to sync contact and message?

No. There is basically no further development planned for Nokia Suite so it will not support any products launched in 2013 and going forward. This is described also in this FAQ: http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/product/301/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA141211
For connecting your phone to PC, you can use Nokia Connectivity cable driver.
One workaround for syncing contacts would be via Mail For Exchange: http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/product/301/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA141748

Nokia 301 - More thorough user guide (?)

Hi All
Purchased a Nokia 301 on Friday and so far thoroughly made up with it.
Wondering if anyone has come across any more in depth, thorough, user guides online (user created) as the Nokia produced one is pretty weak in my opinion.
Regards

That is the best you get: Nokia 301 Dual SIM.
What is missing? I think the Nokia Discussions are the best manual, because it is human and interactive!

Nokia 301 Dual SIM flash file or flash theme

Hi nokia,
from bangladesh. Few days ago i bought nokia 301 dual sim phone. Software version was 2.33 after update it now 9.04. My problem below:
1.It is unable to support flash file or flash theme. The home screen is blank when apply. Flash file is not open. It looks "file not support". But my privious phone(c2-01) it was supported. Please help me to suppopt flash theme or file.
2. Youtube video loading only 60% then looks "no response".
Dear nokia please help me to view flash file and apply flash theme at any way and give a satisfaction reply to view youtube video.
Moderator's Note: The subject was amended as we have moved this post and created a new thread for the topic.

Sounds like your file system gets corrupted each time you update WhatsApp. Did you update WhatsApp manually already? If that shows the same behaviour, I would send in that phone because the cause could be hardware related (broken flash memory).

Nokia 301 no update available

Hi, i recently purchased nokia 301 and I do experience rather poor battery performace (which was one of the things for which i bought it). Therefore i decided to update software of the phone. Version of SW in my phone is 2.51 from June of previous year. Nokia page of my home country (Czech Republic) states, that the lates version available is 8.02 (http://www.nokia.com/cz-cs/podpora/produkty/asha301/softwareupdate/). However when i follow instructions how to update SW through OTA, my phone states, that there are no updates available.
Any suggestions?
I cannot use Nokia Suite, since it is one of those new phones no longer supported.
I bouught it in store, therefore problem should not be caused by provider...
Thanks in advance
PM

@ThatRottenGuy please, give us the 7-letter code written on the label of your phone (product code). That determines the firmware variant which determines the version you get. If you cannot wait, you can check the latest version with the help of the Nokia Software Recovery Tool. I recommend that tool over a Nokia Care Centre because they are using the same tool and earsing your data. Therefore, you should back-up your data via Nokia 301 » menu » Settings » Sync and backup » Create backup. You need a microSD for this. Alternatively, you can use the Nokia Suite …

Nokia 301 mail for exchange "waiting"

I am currently using a Nokia 301 with mail for exchange. However on the home screen instead of displaying the emails I just see a "waiting" message. Therefore I get no visual indication of any new email.
Any ideas?

Hi johnjryce,
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
Mail for Exchange doesn't support syncing of the subscribed calendars. You can only sync more folders to the default Inbox and Outbox folders by going to Options > Manage Subscribed Folders. But, we really appreciate your feedback.

Nokia 301 - Can we reinstall same firmware our own...

I have Nokia 301 Dual SIM (RM-839): v. 9.04
Well when I check new software update it says no new. Is there any using which I can update same software again using any secret code or software?
Can Nokia Recovery tool do this thing? (I never used this)
Also can we downgrade to old firmware if we see any issue with new version own.
Kindly suggest the valuable info.
Thanks,
Sachin

I managed to connect with Nokia Recovery Software, phone was properly recognized, firmware was downloaded, but problem occurs at stage of installation (at very beginning 10% of progress). Nokia ROM driver is being seeked then it is alert on problem with installing it, 10% of progress info is not changing till alert on missing connection of phone appears. Fortunately nothing was changed. i sent my phone to a customer point. they also tried but failed. finally they told me, it's the problem of phn processor. but i didn't believe as i have seen others have same experience.
btw, my phn firmware is 09.04. i tried to recover sofware as it shows an annoying alert "a prefered sim is needed to keep app online. continue?". what should i do? pls reply

Nokia 301 Freezing

Updated new Firmware, Nokia 301 is freezing with FB open sometimes! had to remove battery to turn it off..wouldnt turn of with Off Key any advice thanks. Using 16GB Memory card in it.

Thank you for the quick response, billbobaggins. Have you tried removing the Facebook application from your phone? If you haven't, try to uninstall and reinstall it on your phone. If this will not make any changes, you can perform a soft reset on the phone by going to Menu > Settings > Rest. fact. sett. > Settings Only. You will be asked to put your security code when doing the reset. If you already changed it, just put your personal code. However, if it's not been changed, you can use the default code which is 12345. Let us know whether this troubleshooting procedure helps you out with your concern.

Nokia 301-1 - no outgoing mail possible/config imp...

Hello,
I work for a Belgian Telecomoperator. One of our cmrs cannot configure his mail on his new Nokia 301-1 handset.
To be clear, all data(login, passw., mailservers,ports,...) is correct, I verified them myself with the cmr and I also configured his mailadress on a Nokia Lumia without any problems.
* in the config. we deactivated "authentification compulsory" - else we could not complete config.
Once the mail is configured. Receiving mails is ok, but when trying to send one we get error message:
"unexpected error".
Handset and software details(no more update possible)
v09.04
03/12/13
rm-839
c301-1
Am I at the right place to ask this question, as it wasn't quite clear for these types of Nokia. If not, please do not hesitate to move the topic.
Thanks in advance for some advice.

Ah, ok I misunderstood your question as this is quite common with us.
His incoming mailserver is dependant of his mailprovider, being VOO. His mobile subscription is with another operator, Mobistar. So when he's sending mails(outgoing mailserver) he uses the mobistar network and thus the Mobistar outgoing mailserver, being gprsmail.mobistar.be(which used to be SMTP.mobistar.be).
Is this an explanation that helps you? Don't hesitate if you need more details.
Kr,

Netqin ... or any firewall on Nokia 301
