Nokia 301: Supports amounts of contacts

Hi All,
I just bought a Nokia 301 last weekend but I was really dispointed that the phone can't reach it's specification regarding "supports amounts of contact". I tried to transfer my contacts from old phone (E52) to new phone (301) but the transfer stocked at No. 1000 contacts. I tried to call Nokia Taiwan because the max amount of contact should be 2000. Nokia Taiwan explained that "2000" is caculated by the amounts of "phone number" instead of contacts. It is really strange that why it shows memory space of contacts is 100% used when there are 1000 contacts. Why not "999" or "1001" if it is caculated by amounts of phone number.
BR, Dusty

Sounds like a mistake on Nokia's part while publishing the specs. Else your question isn't practical. If 1000 contacts say it as 100%, its not possible that each one of them contains 2 numbers
Do you have some phone memory free? Just asking in case the contacts are saved on the main phone memory.

It is unclear to me also, if combining more numbers into each contact will free up space on the phone.
Another subject in this forum about the issue is:
http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Asha-and-other-Nokia-Series-30/Nokia-301-Supports-amounts-of-contact...
Or you could talk to the store and ask if they are willing to exchange the phone for something more suitable - since you bought it under the impression that it had room for the 2000 contacts advertised by Nokia initially.
It is not possible to add more space for contacts.
I hope you get it sorted out, one way or the other.

Nokia 301 Tethering

Does anyone now if the Nokia 301 supports 3.5G tethering with Nokia Suite?

Not via WiFi. It can tether via Bluetooth and Data Cable to use the phone as a modem.
Data cable will be the best if you wanna achieve high speeds because transfer speeds over Bluetooth are quite slow.

Nokia 301 dual sim

Hi everybody!
I come from Vietnam. I want to buy the Nokia 301 dual sim but it has not been bought up to now. I want to know some specs about it. Does it support flashlite, audio equalizer and radio with RDS? The specs I want are audio equalizer. I introduced the Nokia 206 to my friend. But it is so disapointed that it does not suport audio equalizer. Music is so bad (with earphone). So terrible! I love the Nokia 301 very much. But I also love music. Besides, I hope the Nokia 301 support flashlite 3.0. I'm using the Nokia C2-01 and it supports flashlite 3.0 perfectly. I only want to view .swf file. Please help me answer these questions. Thanks!
Solved!

I think 301 is a great choice.
I have not used it but I believe it will be having equalizer for sure and radio with RDS.
I am not sure whether it supports flash lite 3.0 or not because they say that adobe stopped supporting it. Hope it has it.

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 can't set screensaver

does this phone support screensaver?

Hi, arabianights. As I've checked, your phone does not support this feature. See this link: http://www.microsoft.com/en/mobile/phone/301-dual-sim/specifications/. You may check the user guide for more information about personalizing your phone. Note that the link is intended for a specific country, but you may go here to visit your local support page.

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.

Nokia 301 dead after software update

I just updated my Nokia 301 from its software version 2.something to the latest (8.03 I believe). After the update process the phone is dead. It won't start up, nothing.
Is there anything I can do?

Beck_DK:
we are investigating your report about Mail for Exchange.
pbomta:
Nokia 301 does not support SW updates via Nokia Suite (like all the more recent phones), so that would be the expected result.

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.

Transfer app for nokia 301

Hi!
I purchased a nokia 301 device. I would like to transfer my contacts from my old phone, a nokia 700. I would like to install the Transfer app but I do not have a data connection, there is no wifi in this device and of course neither nokia suit nor nokia pc suit recognize nokia 301. So is there a way i could install this app on my phone, so i can transfer my contacts?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

eliakwu, scoobyman is right, because Symbian and Series 40 devices offer Bluetooth SyncML (OMA DS). Nokia Transfer is about Windows Phone, Android and iPhone devices because those only offer Bluetooth PBAP.
Another way would be a SyncML service on the Internet, like GMail, because then you can transfer your contacts and with some SyncML services even your calendar items. However, you stated you do not like Internet.

Yes, Nokia Suite does not work, which is confirmed.
PC Suite works after installing the latest Connectivity Driver. Furthermore, do not select the ‘sync and connect’ USB mode because this is PTP. Instead, select the modem mode (USB CDC WMC and ACM). Then, the PC Suite works for several other users on this board. Of course the Map Loader and the Software Updater do not work. Although I am not sure whether the PC Sync feature is enabled. As I do not own a Nokia 310 myself, can anyone else confirm that?

I have given my nokia 301 in nokia care hisar,haryana for the charging problem then they said me to take the mobile in 10 days but now 1 month has gone and i do not receive my mobile which is under warranty

Good day, amanloura065.
Welcome to the Nokia community.
When was the last time you contacted the care center and asked for your phone's repair status? What did they tell you? Note that the repair duration may vary depending the complexity of the issue and availability of spare parts needed.
We hope to hear from you soon.

Whatsapp on Nokia 301

Hi Nokia
I bought this dual-sim fone a week back and like it so far. But I am not able to find whatsapp on the nokia store. Also on the whatsapp website, its not listed in the "supported phones" yet. I am wondering if Nokia is currently working on it.
btw the nokia website mentions "whatsapp" in the features section of this fone, so I am kindof feeling cheated at this point :-|

can you post the link where its shown as a feature? Can't find it so just curious ..
