Nokia 2730 back cover impossible to remove

I just bought this phone and have spent 20+mins trying to open the back cover. I did push down and slide downwards towards the bottom of the phone but it just won't move. Youtube videos show this being done seamlessly. What's wrong with my phone?

Hi,
According to your description, seems the dutch language has already been set to the primary language, but the layout remains incorrect. I suggest you manually set the input method via
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Language\Advanced settings
Under "Override for default input method", choose the keyboard layout you'd like to be your default keyboard, and then tap or click
Save. check the result.
Regarding to removing the English language,
You will not be able to remove your primary display language, set a different language as your primary display language first instead. (though you mentioned that you've set dutch as primary language, I type this here to make a
confirmation)
Removing a language from your list does not uninstall its language pack. So you should uninstall it first before removing the language from your list.

Take it to a Nokia Shop and ask them to have a look at it. Perhaps they can replace it for you.

Some middle cases are a a bit tight which make the back case hard to open.
Instructions for opening case:
1. Place handset in left hand (screen down)
2. Place left thumb just under groove that comes from camera
3. Place right thumb at the bottom of case so that the top of the thumb can press the button but bottom of thumb will push very bottom of case down.
4. with both thumbs working together push down and up with right thumb and up with left thumb.
Case SHOULD click open, if the button has moved up inside the back case the plastic springs have bent or broken and the unit needs to go into a CNSP.

Hi, I just tried doing what you suggest but am not quite sure what groove you mean in respect of the groove that comes from the camera. From the side this phone looks like it is three layers and I am not sure which bit/s are supposed to slide anyway now. My button is now half pushed underneath the back of the 'back' but is still sort of moving up and down if pressed on, but I just cannot budge the back or what I think is the back in any way whatsoever. My thumb is short and I cannot push the button down and push the back with the same thumb! Unfortunately taking the phone to a shop is not an option and I need the phone for business for Monday. I am scared of breaking it by using force. Someone has mentioned a knack and a way of getting it off but has not said how apart from yourself.Message Edited by binarycape on 03-Mar-2007

Nokia 2600 classic - how do I get the back cover o...

I have just bought my first mobile phone ever, so am a complete novice; I have tried to follow the instructions to press the release button and take off the back cover to fit the battery, but I cannot get the cover to open.
The main question is, am I trying to open the phone at the right end - i.e. if the phone is face down, the end nearest to the loudspeaker?
I am loathe to use an implement on the phone in case I damage the case.
Any advice would be very welcome - I feel so stupid!
Thank you.

nothing to be ashamed of, we all have problems with certain phones sometimes.
the back cover of the 2600 is quite big and covers the whole back side plus sides of the phone that's why it's difficult sometimes to remove.
the release button is located at the top of the device , with the phone facing down press on that button, remeber that the body of the button is actually part of the body and not of the cover and so performs as a latch.
while pressing hard enough on that button you can fell that the button goes in enough distance to clear the whole thickness of the back cover plastic. Now wedge your finger nail between the cover and the body anywhere at the top of the device, that should give you enough lift to release the upper part of the cover.
pull up and slightly backward to release the lower part of the cover.
for a diagramtic representation , please take alook at your user manual, available here:

Nokia 6300 opening back cover

Hi. One of my friends has just purchased a new Nokia 6300, and I've been trying to set it up for him. However, I am struggling at the first hurdle - I can't open the back cover. I have looked at the instruction manual and main website demo which shows pushing down around the 2 megapixel print on the cover and pushing down. This does not work.
I have also searched on Internet search engines which has turned up two other methods of opening the back, neither of which work.
The first was to press in further down the back cover at either side.
The second was to hold it in one hand and use the palm of the other hand to press it down and away from you.
Please can someone help me as to how to open the back cover of this phone

Well, it does get easier after you have removed and replaced the battery cover about 10 times or so. But it still takes more effort than most Nokias. The benefit is that the phone has a real solid feel.
My technique is just to grab the battery cover by either side and squeeze hard and pull down. It doesn't seem to move at all but if you look, there should be a barely perceptible very small gap at the seam between the cover and the camera part of the phone. A barely visible space that is just big enough to slide a finger nail in. Once you can get a finger nail in, it is easy to just do that and pull the cover 1/2 inch further down and then lift it off.
I really like the solid build on this phone, although I too initially had trouble getting the battery cover off.Message Edited by mongatu on 02-Dec-200710:36 AM

Nokia having problem in designing the back cover f...

did anybody noticed the difference of 5800xm between taking picture with the back cover and without the back cover?
i can only tell that, the picture taken with back cover is juz too **bleep**, while the picture taken without back cover is clear, vivid & nice...
before discovering this, i have heard of many people complaining about the picture quality of 5800xm. they were wandering whether the Carl Zeiss Optics on it is true or fake... and now, i know it's not the problem of the lens, but because of the back cover. it makes the LED flash to expanse to the bottom left corner of the camera, and thus making the picture with flash on looks like it's taken in the midst of the fog.
i hope Nokia would see this, and do something about it. at least design a better kind of back cover that can fix this problem for us to change. thxz...

what do u mean by "u tried and it worked"? was it mean that my experiment was true, and that the problem i mentioned happened to ur 5800xm as well?
it's ok if nokia didn't provide us the xenon flash on an Xpress Music series, Dual LED does take great image too. but at least design another good back cover for our beloved 5800xm. the Carl Zeiss Optics Lens is really good on it, and it takes good picture without the back cover...

Removing back cover no captive screws?

Several months ago my toddler stuck something in my imac g5 with isight's slot drive.
Today, I had problems starting the computer as it remains on the grey loading screen and never goes to the log-in page.
I recently read up on how to remove the back cover. There are no captive screws on the bottom panel of mine. There are 5 screws that come out and then when I go to lift the back cover the whole LCD screen with components removes from it's plastic housing. The cover is not opening up?
Can someone please help me? Please? I feel like I'm going crazy!

I'm afraid that unless your can get your iMac into Target Disk Mode you will have to rely on the tech to remove your drive and copy it. Actually, if they are working on the optical drive and the logic board, there;s no reason why you should lose your data, but to be on the safe side, ask the techs to copy your drive to another one.

Removing the back cover

Hi all,
Well, we have the ever-popular, iMac G5 that won't power up issue. No sound, no video, the light turns on. The one-year warranty expired on 2/17/07 and it's not in the first generation iMacs covered by Apple's extended repair for this issue.
We are interested in diagnosing in more detail but are having a hecka time getting the back cover off. Funny how the user's manual simply states: raise the foot and lift the back cover off. Sure.
Anyway, anyone have some back cover removal tips or tricks? We've got some old credit cards we can ruin but aren't having much luck with those either.
Thanks.

How can I remove the back cover for my ipod?

I need to remove the cover because my ipod seems to be suffering from a hardrive problem. It used to just cycle through all the songs in a playlist or randomly play 5 seconds and skip to the next song, but now it just makes a whirring noise when I try to turn it on and cannot get past the apple logo.
Sometimes I get the little unhappy ipod logo and the support website but thats it.
Iv tried going into diagnostic mode and attempting to run a few tests. It failed a USB test in this mode so i think that may be one of the problems with it.
Does anyone know of a fool proof way of removing the case so I can dis/reconnect the harddrive?

Before you remove the back cover of your iPod - which will loss the warranty
Read the following
he Sad iPods icon or folder with an exclamation mark are the toughest problems to deal with, and must do a Restore in order to fix it. However, when your iPod is showing this icon, it is probably too late for your computer to recognize the iPod.
1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
Still can't see your iPod?
Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
7. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
8. Try to do an Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a format with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer). You may need to plug and unplug your iPod with the computer for several attempts, and switching around Format and Restore, and hope out of sudden, it will get recognized.
9. Diagnostic mode solution – which I copied from a thread of a post from thinktwice
“Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
- I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
- I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
- I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
10.Let me ask you a question, if an iPod with no iPod software with it. When your connect it with a computer, what would happen?
Yeah, the computer will treat it as a fresh external hard disk, which will get force mounted, the computer will ask you to format the iPod. It does not really matter the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted iPod software on the iPod, after that the computer will recognize it.
Once it has been completed, eject your iPod, open the iPod updater and interestingly, you will able to do the Restore this time.
Base on the above, that's why I suggest Windows users who experience trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac machine or vice versa. PC computer will not recognize a Mac formatted iPod, but it will get mounted in an attempt to format your iPod.
But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website.
I have just read an interesting solution about the Sad iPod, it does make sense but the warranty will be waived once you open the iPod, I would not do it myself as I am not good on doing this

So can anyone help???

Hi,
The procedure is detailed starting on Page 67 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.
Note: I don't work for HP, but looking at the degree of disassembly required, I would say the procedure may well void the conditions of warranty.
