Nokia 5200 won't be recognized

Hello,
I bought a Nokia 5200 and installed PC Suite 6.83.14.1.
It used to work fine in all the connection modes, but recently it hasn't recognized the phone in "Nokia PC Suite Mode" - only in mass storage and imaging (like a digital camera).
When I chose one of those methods, PC Suite says "Nokia 5200 connected in the wrong mode". If I change the mode to "PC Suite", the device manager will load up a bunch of drivers, but PC Suite won't recognize the phone anymore.
It states "No phone connected".
I tried reinstalling it and it worked once. Now, reinstalling or uninstalling/installing again won't make any difference.
Tried to remove all of Nokia's SDKs, cable drivers and all I could find from Nokia, but nothing works.
Also, it won't find the phone via IrDA nor Bluetooth.
Using XP Pro SP2.
My system info (portuguese, sorry):
Sistema operacional:
Microsoft Windows XP
Compilação 2600
Service Pack 2
Idioma: English

Thank you all in advance.

Ok, it's working now.
Here's more or less what I did:
Uninstalled iTunes (just for the record, since I installed it more or less at the same period PC Suite started to get moody).
Uninstalled PC Suite.
Uninstalled Cable drivers.
(At this point I tried to run "PC Suite Cleaner", but it said it wasn't compatible with this version of my PC Suite).
Then I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL and noticed "nsl_host_something.exe" was running. Searched for it and I found a big folder at %Program Files%\Common Files\Nokia". I deleted this whole folder and rebooted.
Installed PC Suite (which installs cable drivers automatically).
Tried to check for the cable connection (fired PC Suite, clicked 'Manage Connections'. This wouldn't list any type of connection.
Fired up PC Suite's installer and told it to 'repair'.
Launched PC Suite again, clicked on the connections button, selected cable, hit next and when it was looking for the phone, I connected it. Voilà!
Hope this helps somebody.
Cheers!

  • Using MP3s for ringtones on nokia 5200

    I just got the 5200 and i've transferred lots of mp3s to my memory card but the phone will not allow me to use the mp3s for ringtones. When I select options the Use tone option is gray and when I select it I get either a message saying the file size is too large, or when I transferred smaller files I get the error "not allowed by activation key"
    any helpful advice?
    thanks in advance

    OK ... here's what I found ... .MP3's on Nokia 5200 won't work as ringtones. Also, .AAC's won't work either unless they have some special code associated with them (supposedly to help protect copyrighted material ... I think it's a scam to make you buy ringtones). However, it will recognize and use .WAV files. I used Nero to convert a 30 second section of an .MP3 to a .WAV file with the following attributes (formatCM,samplerate:22kHz,channels:1(mono),sampling:8bit,bitrate:176kbps). Regardless, any previous setting I used can be altered. These settings gave me a good quality sound and kept a 30 second .WAV file under 600kB (any bigger and Nokia may complain of the file being too big). Pain in the **bleep**.
    Where are you Robbie?

  • Whats new in V 05.51 for Nokia 5200?

    I have a nokia 5200 v:03.93 i want to update it please tell me what to do .........
    Moderator note:
    Several lines of 'please' removed. Please note that the best way to get a response from this community is simply to give full and concise information.

    Hi, your phone is unfortunately getting old, so from checking your device at this site:http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/download-software/device-software-update
    it says that there are no updates available for this product. It's probably because it is discontiniued.
    However, input your product code in this checker tool to see if you got any luck:http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update
    However if there aren't any, you could always call a Nokia care point to ask if they have the the option to install the latest one, however I think you will have to face that you won't get it updated.
    But it never hurts to try!

  • Problem with nokia 5200

    Well i swapped my phone nokia 5200 transformer edition for a regular nokia 5200, the connection point were the phone, crahrges is loose i dont know if this is the reason for the phone not charging. is there a difference in the cahrgers or what...?

    Hi,
    Are you referring to the Nokia 5300 Transformers Edition? Regarding on your problem, the charger connector might be faulty as well as the charger. Better bring your phone to a Nokia Service Center for a quick fix for free. I suppose it's a brand new phone so they won't charge you on repairs or replacements.

  • Nokia 5200 does not 'ring'

    Hi,
    I have a nokia 5200 which has worked perfectly since i bought it 2 months ago. However, since this morning it no longer 'rings'. I have checked the ringtone, volume etc but nothing doing.
    The touchpad beeps but the welcome signal and the ringtones are not working.
    Any advice appreciated.
    JJ

    hey,
    ensure there is signal strength.
    if you are using a headset ensure it is detached as it won't ring through the speaker.
    check the phone's profile isn't silent, flight, online.

  • ISync 2.4 (OS 10.4.9) and Nokia 5200

    Hi,
    I start this post saying I'm french, so is my english not very good.
    I've got a Nokia 5200 and the last Isync's version did support my nokia with a Mactomster Plugin. But now, the 10.4.9 Update make iSync not allowing me to ssyncronise my cell and my mac.
    So do you have any advice for me ?
    Thx
    Roland.

    Well, nobody can predict the future - especially where Apple is concerned. Anything you buy today, could be made obselete tomorrow.
    It's your choice whether to pay a small amount to be able to use your phone fully now, or wait an unspecified amount of time to get it for free.

  • How to raise the ringtone volume in nokia 5200??

    i cant figure it out how to raise the ringtone voice on my nokia 5200, when someone calls me the ringtone voice is low and than after like 4 seconds it goes higher and higher to the maximum...i want the ringtone volume to be at the maximum from the first second that someone calls me, some help would be great

    hi,
    What you need to do is go into:
    "Settings" then "Tones" and make sure "Incoming Alert" is changed to "Ringing" rather than "Ascending"
    I hope this helps.

  • Canon MP180 scanner won't be recognized after Mavericks upgrade

    Dear Apple Support Communities members,
    My Canon MP180 scanner won't be recognized after Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) upgrade: neither in Image Capture nor in MP180 standalone app.
    The printer works well though.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot.
    Best wishes,
    Yves

    Well...
    I asked Canon support and got the answer that OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) was not supported.
    I am kindly being suggested either to downgrade from 10.9 or to buy another scanner. Cool.

  • Nokia 5200 iSync with Apple Mac OS X 10.4.9 Blueto...

    ok, English isn't my first language, but I'm gonna try this anyway. Here is how I got my Nokia 5200 synchronised with iCal, Agenda, iSync via Bluetooth.
    It's very easy. You need to replace the number "6131" for the number "5200" inside the script: MetaClasses.plist
    This is a file that's located inside the nokia 6131 folder of the iSync.
    Here's the rute to get it:
    finder / applications / select iSync with right boton of the mouse (control clic), then, select: view package content / contents / plugins / applephoneconduit / contents / plugins / nokia6131 / contents / resources / MetaClasses.plist.
    Now, open this file with Textedit, and with "search and replace", replace all the "6131" with the number "5200". And that's it!
    If you want to have the Nokia 5200 icon on the iSync screen, you need to get it and save it as .tiff format.
    then, inside the "resources" folder (where the MetaClasses.plist. file is) replace the allready existing image of the nokia 6131, and name your image like this: com.nokia.5200.tiff
    with my phone, works absolutly perfect. Hope this be helpfull.
    EDIT: Removed non english textMessage Edited by ajak on 25-Jun-2007 05:48 PM

    Jeff, I don't belive that the probleme could be the language, becouse this solution has worked to many other people, from different countries. I posted this same solution in Apple.com discussions, and many people said that it works great.
    I belive that it may not be clear enougth, and you must be doing something wrong.
    Is there any posible way that I can see you e-mail? I would like to send you a better explanation.
    Meanwhile, I left you here, the web site in Apple.com, you can see my E-mail from over there.
    Please, keep in touch, I'm sure we'll make it work.
