Activating Fake Call
-On Homescreen long press the right soft key then on the screen it will saying "The Simulate Call is Turned On" within 5 Minutes something will call you from Unknown Number.
Activating Restriction
-I think this facility is Privacy Protection like but it needs to be enhance and add more apps like Messages, Contacts etc.
On Homescreen Press the Menu>Settings>Security>Restriction>Enter the Restriction PIN(the default code is 12345)>then Mark some apps you want to be restricted.
To Change the Code just Press the Option there you found the Change Restriction Code Option.
I will update this thread soon.
I love T9 Bar Phones | I used to be a Sony Ericson fan before but they leave the low end Phones so I have to switch to Nokia | LG Optimus L5 II and Nokia 206 3

It's just a Restriction not a Privacy Settings. HOH

Nokia 206 conversation problems(threaded)

Guys
Got Nokia 206 and using it for more than 2 months. With the help from the net, I was able to connect the phone to Nokia PC suite via Bluetooth. Still could not transfer the contacts from my Sony Ericsson cedar and did it the hard way using bluetooth. I am facing one more problem now, in the message conversation, it is grouping messages by the mobile number. If a contact has two numbers, then I have two threads of messages for the contact based on the number. Further, the service messages (bank messages, Tatasky etc) are not grouped and shown as individual messages. My cedar used to group all these messages in a single thread for all service messages and single thread is maintained for a contact irrespective of the Nos. in a contact. Any suggestions?.. Thx in advance
Regards
Subbaraman

update: i did go back to the shop and i got a new one who really works.

Go to My Apps Instead. If still didn't you find it. (If you find the app go to **)
Update you're Phone's Version and that Update will bring the games gift App (Proceed to my First Post about Updating you're phone) then After you update and Set-up you're phone specially the connection Settings. Go to Games then it should be there or it can be seen on you're homescreen too.
**Go to App.Terms and Conditions will pop up. And that's it. (You still need to login using a Nokia Account)

Nokia 206 internet issue

I'm having problems with the internet on my phone i just opened today. I seem to be connected to the internet, because i can use the xpress browser to load web pages (although it does seem really really slow), but whenever i try to do anything else (update the phone, facebook app, go to the store) it tells me i'm not connected to the internet.
The internet works find on a different phone in the same area with the same sim, I'm not sure whatthe problem is.
Nokia 206 dual sim,
Any help appreciated.

I kind of got the internet working using a few steps from this thread
http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Asha-and-other-Nokia-Series-30/Asha-302-browser-connects-apps-don-t/...
but it's just ridiculously slow to the point where it's pointless using the internet. am i missing something here?

Nokia 206 does not turn on after update

Hi
Just got a Nokia 206
Updated the software. Itupdated and restarted fine
Then I checked for updates again, and it updated a second time
Everything went fine, and the phone restarted. It said "Update Successful" or something like that
I remember that the SW version was from May 2013 (first update was MArch 2013 I believe)
I tried to update a 3rd time and it said that there were not more update availabale
I was happy !
I checked that internet worked, sent an email, everything worked fine
Then I turned off the mobile to try another SIM card, but when tunring it on, the screen goes black, then "NOKIA" is displayed on the screen for few sec, then the phone turns off
I tried to :
_ different SIM cards
_ using 1, 2 or 0 SIM cards
_ holding power button up to 10 - 15 sec (hopping it will do some reset)
_ tried to find a hard reset button, but did not find...
So basically, the phone is not turning on. Only "NOKIA" is written for few sec, then phone turns off again
The phone is un-usable as such
Please Nokia, what should I do to fix that ?
Regards
Bastien

when I plug the power supply, the charging icone shows up
When I try to start the phone then, the screen gets all white for less than a second, then black for 1 to 2 seconds, then all white for less than a sec again, then turns off
When I press again, it goes back to the charging icon (the white and orange battery charging)
Also, I forgot to mention that sometimes, it does not do the short vibration it used to do when trying to turn on

Nokia 206 Medial player not working properly.

Dear all members,
I have recenlty purchased a nokia 206 dual sim mobile. Some features in the phone are very good, but video player has some problems. If i play mp4 converted file 320*240 15fps file, it shows "this file could not play well in your phone". I tried to reduce the 320*240 10fps, but the same msg again coming. Also the streaming video and audio at the middle of the file not matching. The audio is going faster than video streaming. Is it medial player problem or phone problem?. Also with youtube videos online also if lenghty files played same thing happed. Please help me about this problem.
Thanks in advance.

@_m3gz4_ no, I cannot recommend any other video player, because the media player in a Nokia Series 40 is highly optimized because it is written in the native programming language of that platform. Therefore, I would like to go one step backwards: Did you try MPEG-4 Simple-Profile encoded media as well? Did you consider to go for another mobile phone with a faster processor (CPU) and/or a dedicated graphics processor (GPU)? If you go for a used Nokia 700 for example, you would be surprised by the difference.

Nokia 206 always connected to the internet

Hallo,
my Nokia 206 connects automatically to the internet and downloads a few kilobytes soon after turning on the phone. It remains connected then although I don't use the internet connection at all. Why is this happening? I am paying a fixed price per kB for internet connection and don't want to pay for each start of the phone. However, I don't want to turn mobile data off since I do use the e-mail and MMS functionality.
Best,
Jakub
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hallo once again and thank you very much! The restore settings tip actually solved the problem!
It's funny because I've tried restoring the phone once before already with no luck, but I likely messed with Viber afterwards again that time. The phone now appears to connect just when I need it (checking mail & MMS) and I hope it keeps this behaviour for its entire lifetime.
Thanks again to everyone for their responses!

Nokia 206 - Send message to nokia - charged £1

Got new Nokia 206, inserted sim powered up got a message saying need to send message to Nokia and may be charged (no idea what is in the message), checked PAYG balance and I have been charged £1 for the privelige = not happy.
Is this a subsidy to nokia? in order to use the phone we need you to send a premium rate SMS?
Can anyone elaborate what this message was (not saved in sent messages) and why Nokia are sending to premium rate number?

Well its just an activation message which helps Nokia in activating the warranty of your phone and other services such as Nokia Life.
But that's optional, it also tells you that premium sms rates will apply. So its your mistake if you didn't read it properly and continued.
Make sure you don't do that the next time. Skip it if it asks your permission to send an sms. Anyways, it won't bother you anymore

Any Nokia phones with Threaded Text messaging?

I'm looking for a Nokia phone with threaded text messaging.
Rather like the Palm Centro or Iphone:
Anyone know of a basic model that can do it?
I'm currently lusting after the Nokia 3720 Classic and would love if it could organise messages in a more useful way, and banish my thoughts of bulkier handsets. I've loved my Nokia 6030 for a few years but its disintergrating now.

s60 phones are usually the smartphone family the E and N series all run on s60.
6700 new navigator, the 6220c also runs on s60, 5800xm runs on the new gen for touch screens s60
the lower modesl 1xxxxx,2xxxxx,3xxxx, 5xxxx,6xxx (the 6 family is divided and can either run on s40 or s60 depending on the phone) series usually run on s40 platform. for every phone you can look up specs and it will tell you which platform or operating system the phone runs on
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....

Question about Nokia 206 Dual SIM Alarm Clock

hi every body
how can i change the default clock alarm tone in nokia 206 ?
every time i should change it manually
is there any default setting for alarm clock ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Welcome to the forum, karon_sh!
The alarm app uses the standard Nokia alarm tune as its default tone. You're right, when you create a new alarm, you'll need to set your preferred alert tone manually. Currently, there's no setting to change this. However, we'll take your feedback as a feature suggestion for future SW updates.
Let us know if you need further assistance.

Software 4.51 for Nokia 206

I currently
have the 3.58 software on
my Nokia 206 dualsim but
the download of 4.51 is
being 'cancelled by the
server'. Why? Please I need help

I find it to be just inexplicable and incredibly poor customer support on the part of NOKIA to STILL NOT have online firmware updates available for the 6233, especially since they managed to get them up for the 6234 which is essentially the same phone.
Hello? Nokia? Are you listening? People are not happy.
Currently using 6300 & 6233 (backup)
