Nokia 5230 - problem: SILENT while calling!!

Hi!
I've been using my nokia 5230 about a month. Recently i'm faced with a very annoying problem:
When i call somebody or receive a call the phone gets SILENT. That means i don't hear the voice whom i'm calling (or who is calling me). But the person whom i'm calling (or who calls me) hears my voice. This problem doesn't appear every time but occasionally. I've the latest firmware on my phone.
I'm really frustrating about it. Imagine you get an very important call and your phone doesn't work properly.
I'm very thankful if somebody can help me!
Solved!

Thanks.
I had the exact same problem.
I did a full backup using the updated OVI suite, and then followed your directions:
back up all your data first type in *#7370# security code is 12345
It performed the reset, but I could still not hear callers using the handset; my volume is turned all the way UP. 
The speaker phone works fine, and music plays fine, the only problem being I am unable to hear a caller through the phone unless I turn it on speaker.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Just an FYI for others; after the reset all text messages were wiped out.  When using the RESTORE function on the updated OVI suite, NOT all of the text messages that were backed up were restored.
Thank you.

  • Image open problem in nokia 5230

    Dear All,
    I have nokia 5230 mobile & i am using from last 10 months but from past few days i am facing problem regarding image/songs open problem.  whenever i trying to open image my phone gets hang & it shows nothing in it but i have 100 pics in memory card, same problem is with songs whenever i put some songs in memry card but songs gallery after refreshing shows nothing.
    Please help me to resolve this issue.
    Vipul

    im not sure what to do about the images but the same happened with the songs. here is waht i did:
    1. make sure you have the latest firmware installed (fw. 50).
    2. when it is installed copy all tracks to pc and install nokia ovi music.
    3. delete the folder called 'music' on your memory card.
    4. open ovi music and add songs to playlists and copy to device. this will create a new folfre called 'music' and the error should be fixed
    if that fails you should try a program called lcg jukebox as this is a much better music player 

  • Having problem with my nokia 5230

    Hi, i have purchased nokia 5230 one month before. After one week i have notied that my phone network has some trouble in automatically accessing the network. I am using airtel network and then i contacted the shop and they said it may be sim problem so they said to take duplicate of the sim. After taking the duplicate sim then also the problem existed. Again i contacted them. This they said to update the software, so i gone to nokia care and updated the software and they said the problem will be solved. Then after a day when ichecked again the problem exists. So again i contacted the nokia care this time they took the phone and said they send the phone to nokia for company service and said to come back after 15 days. Yesterday they called me the phone is ok and ready to collect. So got the phone and when i checked again this problem exists. This time i tried using another network Aircel and it shows no problem. Now it clear it has some problem with airtel network. Please can any one help me to sort this problem. I am using software v20.0.005.

    Is your 5230 set to dual mode (GSM + UMTS) in  the network settings? Switch to GSM only and observe the difference.

  • Marking unmarking problem with nokia 5230.

    Recently most of the college studends having Nokia 5230 or 5233 mobiles.
    In this mobile, while marking unmarking, all time we have to go to option and select mark unmark. so please update software for this issue.

    That one of few things I hate on my 5800, it is a real pain on the neck when you have many items to mark. That was never given any attention by Nokia and I doubt an update would be released to make it better.
    If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

  • Nokia X6 problem while talking

    I purchased Nokia X6 and using it for past couple of weeks.
    The basic usage of the phone is to make and receive calls but my problem lies with the basic feature of the phone -- i.e. with talking while calling.
    When I make a call or receive a call, I can hear what other person is talking very clearly but no one is able to hear me.
    When I try to talk on top of my voice, I get to hear from the person on the other side that they cant hear me and the voice is not at all clear or it is highly distorted. They just can't understand what I am talking.
    Whereas if I use a bluetooth device to make and receive calls, it just works fine.
    Hence I have to every time carry my bluetooth device with me in order to use the phone for talking.
    It is very frustrating to encounter such a basic feature problem from Nokia.  Is there any fix to this? I can't carry a bluetooth device everytime to use the Nokia X6 phone.

    Hi,
    It sounds like you have a faulty microphone module in the phone itself. I would take the phone to a Nokia Care Centre to get the handset fully checked out. Or try taking the phone back to the shop you bought it from to see if they will exchange it since you've had the phone only for a couple of weeks.

  • Strange Problem Nokia 5230.. Please Help!!!!!!!!!!...

    This is my think the most difficult problem till now in techie things. Now the problem is :- I have Nokia 5230. I was using Tata Docomo since the day it was launched, i used it in my Motorola L9 and it was working all good. Now i got Nokia 5230 and was using Docomo in 5230. After some days i updated my phone firmware to v20 and since that day i was having problems called Connection Error when i tried to call. So from that day,people can't call me/message me/ or vice versa. Now the strange thing is GPRS works 24/7 but i can't call or vice versa things. So i did 2 things :- Interchanged Sim Cards, i put Docomo in Motorola and Reliance in Nokia now the thing is BOTH ARE WORKING FINE!!!!! IDK why, but Docomo works fine in MOTOROLA, and RELIANCE works fine in NOKIA but DOCOMO DOES NOT WORK IN NOKIA (except GPRS). I can't interchange sim cards to repective phones, because i got 5230 only for GPRS and i use GPRS whole day and i need Docomo to work.

    SOLVED plugin to charger solved it - so problem was with contacts -- no idea why - phone is new - no water - no havy dust - usual using  
    hope will never return. Thanks

    We checked it with an iPhone 5 in house multiple times and could not reproduce this Problem. Must be something specific to your device. Maybe your speakerphone volume is turned down completely?

  • Problem while Calling a CGI pgm From Java with code sample

    Hey guys,
    I am calling a CGI program from java servlet, while calling cgi program I am passing encoded(Base64) content via post process,
    My problem is the encoded data is not posted as expected, the encoded data is corrupting. But when I send encoded data in a text file, cgi program is perfectly decoding and working fine.
    Here I am doing Base64 encoding as per requirement, I cannot avoid this encoding.
    My doubt is about OutputStreamWriter constructor argument , In OutputStream Constructor I am passing one argument is OutputStream object and another argument is encoding type. I tried with ASCII, US-ASCII & UTF-8 .
    My code is as follows, please help me to resolve this issue.
    URL url = new URL("CGI server path");
    URLConnection urlConnection = url.openConnection();
    urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
    OutputStream os = urlConnection.getOutputStream();
    BufferedOutputStream buffer = new BufferedOutputStream(os);
    OutputStreamWriter  writer = new
                                                   OutputStreamWriter(buffer, "US-ASCII");
    writer.write(encodedPDF-Content);
    writer.write("\r\n");
    writer.flush();
    writer.close();
    here encodedPDF-Content is String and it's size is 9565 bytes

    Whenever you read something in java into string (with Reader implementation) it expects source to contain text in encoding you specified. It then decodes it and makes 16 bit unicode string from it. Whenever you store string using Writers it does reverse operation with specified encoding (may be different than this which you used to read source) and stores text as a sequence of bytes made of 16 bit unicode string. So, passing text back and forth between programs with the help of files or I/O you can make mistake at both reading and writing encoding. Check for it.
    Now, when C programm or other application reads file it may take another assumptions about encoding or may even completly ignore it and read source as a binary file. Then, if you have a source text as a file and have to pass it to other application never do it using Reader/Writer. User raw InputStream/OutputStream instead what will preserve all information unchanged.
    here encodedPDF-Content is String and it's size is 9565 byteHow id you get this info? String.length() gets you how many chars is in it, it will be half the number of bytes. If you see your input file beeing 9565 bytes long, see my above statements.

  • Nokia 5230 Gps problem

    Hello guys, I've brought my Nokia 5230 recently and I've soon discovered a problem with the gps function. The problem is every time I tried to see where I'm or the gps function it takes ages and it still can't detect any gps signal, I've been to many places, home, library, in my car moving through town and really it don't pick up any signals. Does it matter if I don't use internet at all? And are there settings that I have to follow? Thanks in advance.

    Hi rexlee123
    Sounds as if you are not utilizing the Assisted GPS feature which requires a network access point. Whereas you can set OVI Maps to "Offline" if regional maps downloaded, if you just rely on Integrated GPS reception will be quite poor. You need to check in Menu > Applications > Location > Positioning > Positioning server > Access point and also in Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Destinations - that WAP access point has not ended up in "Uncategorized" folder where not utilized.

    This sometimes happens if you have a case or screen protector on the phone.  IF you have one of these remove it and see if it makes any difference

  • Nokia 5230 v 21.0.004 phone lock problem

    hi, I've recently updated my nokia 5230 to v. 21.0.004 software/firmware. After I turn off and turn it on back again, It asks for phone lock code, I entered standard code 12345, its says code error, but still I can use my phone. The phone management setting for phone lock is off, I tried to change the phone lock code, but after I re-enter the new code, it says "you've entered the wrong code five times, you can unlock in five minutes" or something like that. Is anyone have the same problem with me or have a solution for it. Thanks

    if you can still access full function of your phone, reset your phone to factory setting. It is also recommended to do factory reset before formating(soft rest/hard reset) phone or firmware update. And disable phone lock. Some users reported that same code(used earlier) is not recognise by the phone after soft reset and firmware update

  • Problem while calling the FM FP_JOB_OPEN

    Hi All,
    I have a scenario where i need to attach multiple Forms(Adobe) to a work flow container.
    While calling the FM 'FP_JOB_OPEN', i am passing the required parameters as below
    wl_outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.
    wl_outputparams-connection = 'ADS'.
    wl_outputparams-dest = 'LP01'.
    wl_outputparams-getpdf  = 'X'.
    the problem is that i get a Print preview pop-up even though i pass Nodialog = 'X', and more over after calling the actual Form function module the resultant parameter 'fpformoutput-pdf' is only filling up only after i process the print preview dialog and see the preview. other wise the field 'fpformoutput-pdf' is blank.
    as i need to do this work in back ground(for work flow background step) i do not want the print preview pop-up window.
    can some one help me in this regard.
    PS. For multiple forms i tried calling the form functions modules in between every FP_JOB_OPEN n FP_JOB_CLOSE
    as well as a single FP_JOB_OPEN and calling the multiple form function modules and FP_JOB_CLOSE.
    thanks in anticipation .
    Srinivas

    @koolspy      
    Yes, i did specify the settings in the o/p options.
    in addition to this, after debugging i could able to see some issue when calling form name via  FM 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME', in this FM it is appending '_IN' to the generated FM name and trying to check for existence check, obviously there wont be any FM as it is appending '_IN' to the generated FM.
    but when calling the generate FM after FP_JOB_OPEN it is throwing sy-subrc = 1, which is Usage error.
    Why is it behaving weirdly, is there any thing i am missing while calling the Form?
    please help as this is on high priority
    thanks
