stebenwulf, looks like garbage rather than Chinese.
Do you use the latest USB driver? After installing it, you have to go to the Windows Device Manager, right-click on your Nokia, and repair the driver. The Nokia must be attached at that time. If that does not help, try another computer. It that shows garbage again, either ignore the message or return this device, as well.

Nokia 301 Signal problems?

Today I Installed an update for my 2 Months old nokia 301.After installation I have no signal on my phone anymore.
What should I do?

Well for voice and SMS, you could switch to GSM-only (at least). No solution for data connectivity, tho.
I recommend to subscribe to that thread. If an software update is available, you’ll get an email.

Nokia Map Language Problem

I have reinstalled nokia map to version 2.0 in E66, and downloaded the map through Nokia Map Loader. I'm in China and I downloaded maps with Chinese language, while I set English as my phone language.
When I click Optioin -> Search -> Places and search places near by, the results are all in English. While if I go offline first then search, the results are in Chinese. How can I set my online search language to Chinese?
I guess there might be some option to decide search language, but I cannot find it. It should not be affected by my phone language, since before the installation my phone language is also English while online search results are in Chinese.

Hi edwinxi
I think that you would have needed to set phone language in Chinese to achieve this result.

Nokia 301 languages

Hi!
I recently purchased a 301 in Austria for a relative, because I thought that the phone would have Slovenian language available and would be perfect for him.
Well, I found out that it has most of european languages available, but not Slovenian (or Croatian, Serbian...).
As the phone hasn't been yet released in Slovenia, is there a chance that when it will, there will be an OTA update with new languages?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi XIIT,
Welcome to the forum!
The set of available languages is fixed and dependent on your original sales region. If your preferred language is not installed on the phone, it's not possible to add it. Thank you for understanding.

Nokia N96 Language problem

Hi, I recently update my phone software and I can't put the language who was before. My phone language was romanian and now I can't put this language again. Please help me.
Thanks

Refuses the phone to change to romanian or do you simply miss the language now after you've updated?
If the language is gone it's a case where the reseller you bought it from has added the language themselvs to the phone as it wasn't initially ment for your country ( they buy it cheaper from other countries). So when you now have updated, the phone has been updated with fw initially ment for your device, hence romanian added by the reseller is gone. You will have to visit a Nokia care point and ask if they can install the language pack which you need.
If romanian is one of the choices in your lanugage selection but nothing happens when you select it, I would first pull out the battery from the device and wait 1 min before putting it back together. I would then boot it normally. Check again, if not, try to reinstall the update. If that does not work, try a hard reset. Beware that a hard reset will wipe the phone memory so I would make a back up of everything you need first before doing that. If it still doesn't want to execute your selection, please visit a Nokia care point.
Good luck!

Nokia 301 app store problems

I have a problem with the Nokia Store app in my Nokia 301 (single SIM) RM-841 v.8.02 S40 phone. It's an unlocked phone.
I opened the store app and it said there was a required update. I said yes and it updated. However, after that, the Nokia Store app doesn't work properly and hangs, and it also displays the icon with a key over it. The Nokia internet doesn't work properly either after the store app update.
I tried to use the recovery tool wich I downloaded from Microsoft. I installed it, connected the phone with the appropiate USB cable, followed the instructions. The recovery tool detected my phone but after that, it just doesn't seem to work and it says installation failed and gets stuck at 10%.
What can I do to solve and/or fix the issue to be able to use the Nokia Store app again and the Nokia internet browser.
I have Windows 7 of 64bit.
Can anyone help me?

On the first (differ), you have to say YES, or the download does not work.
On the second (keep), depends on the app. However, I go for NO usually.
The built-in apps do not have the download URL embedded, when you first update. Furthermore, even the next updates are going to show that warning because the webserver scripts redirect while updating. Therefore, this message. Botching. This is actually a software-bug in the app and webserver scripts. With one experienced computer scientist, this would not have happened.
If you do not keep the data, you start all over – except for apps which store your data online, like the Nokia Store. If you start over, you make sure, you do not have RMS with unexpected settings. This is important, if you used an already updated app, which FOTA downgrades. Because you do not know, if FOTA downgraded an app, NO is the safe way. We saw that with Nokia Xpress on some models. Anyway, again, a software-bug because apps can be designed to handle unknown/future settings easily. Botching.

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!!

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 301 Dual Sim languages ??

Hi everybody!
As a Nokia user for as long I can remember I was looking for a new Nokia device, I came across the Nokia 301 Dual Sim (not the single sim!). But I can't seem to find wether this phone has support for Dutch language, can anyone tell me please?

Hi HW1979,
Welcome to the forum!
We're happy to hear that you're planning to purchase the Nokia 301. As for the phone language, this is country and region dependent. The Dutch language will be available if you purchase it in a country where it is commonly used. We advise you to check the device personally or coordinate with the local stored in your area.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need clarification.

Update of Nokia 301 removed Danish language

Hi,
I recently updated my new Nokia 301 to software version 2.51. However, the Danish language is now unavailible! Is it possible to get the Danish software update and install it my self?
Best regards

No it isn't as it would seem that Danish langauge pack had been previously added to device and it reverted to languages installed dictated by it's seven character alphanumeric product code upon updating; you would need to visit a Nokia Care facility for it to be re-installed.

Nokia 301 v8.02 update 3G problem

Hello
So after the update same thing happened as before with 2.51 update. No 3G!
2G works and factory reset doesn't help. What is the deal with this?

After I updated my Nokia 301.1 to version 08.02, it's basically a piece of junk now!!
Who is in charge of this???
The phone doesn't work at all.
It loses it's connectivity randomly all the time.
It isn't able to send or recieve a textmessages.
Batterylife is completely rubbish now. Before I could have it for up to 7 days without charging. Now it loses it's batterylife after 1 single day!! How is this an improvement???
The same decrease in batterylife happened after the last update! Then the batterylife decreased from 10 days to 7 days. Please stop trying to fix a phone that was all right out of the box, but after 2 updates, it's completely useless!!!!
WHAT DID YOU DO??????????????????????????
I tried to reset it to factory settings, nothing changed.
I live in Norway.
I use OneCall as my operator.
The code on the sticker on the back says: 059Q8X2
Fix this now please!!!!!!!!!!

Nokia 301 icon issues following latest update

I have got a Nokia 301 which usually works fine.
I`ve just updated the phones software to the latest version. My problem is: -
When I click on the Mail icon, nothing happens. So I can`t see my email account I added.
Is there a way of sorting this out?
Many thanks.
Ned1

I have previously deleted the email account and then added it back in.
The problem this time is when i click on the Mail Icon, it doesn't open up.
I don't really want to do a factory reset. If i have to i will.
I just wandered if there was a way of bypassing the Mail Icon to access my email account, or deleting the icon and reinstalling it.

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 E51 Messaging problem

Please can someone help me, I have rung Nokia and tried to resolve this but after 2 hrs the guy gave up and the problem still exists.
When I go to create a New Message, I follow the correct steps, Messaging-New Message-Create Text Message- I Highlight the "To" field, then I select Options-Add Recipient, this takes me to the Contacts list and here the problem arises,,,,,,usually I would highlight the persons name then click on OPTIONS to use the feature to add the name to the Text Message's "To" field,,,,,,,,,the problem is the OPTIONS has disappeared, it is just not there, it has always been then but then just up and went.
Can someone help me with this problem. The Tech I spoke to had me reset the phone using the *#7380# combo then I had to enter a code. Anyway it did not work.
At this point I feel like using the phone as flying projectile.
Thank you in advance for any help given
Maeeye

Hadimassa
Thank you for your reply, I rechecked what the tech had me do and the first time he had me use *#7780# 12345, this reset the phone not losing any data, but it did not restore the missing icon.(he called this a soft reboot)
He then gave me *#7370#12345, this he called a hard reboot....by the time he gave me this second code I had had enough just about 2hrs on the phone.
Later in the day I tried the hard reboot and it did restore everything, lost my data etc, but I didn't have that much on it anyway.
My point to him was if he did not know how to fix the problem then he could of told me at the get go, not 2 hrs later after he had tried so many things, and the language problem did not help as he was not of this country.
Once again, thank you
