Nokia 5610 with dead(?) screen

Hey guys I seem to have a problem!
I was uploading some mp3 to my newly bought Nokia 5610,
I got it 3 weeks ago. I installed the latest software etc etc. Now here we go: I was uploading the mp3's and at some point I had to go to college, and I thought it be alright if I just left my phone on the desk so it could upload the songs while I was gone, and it'd be done by the time I would get back.
Then I thought that maby the battery would be empty soon if it was uploading all the time, so I got my charger, and I plugged it in the mobile... and then suddenly the screen went black. I was like... euh? O.o what was that.
So I start looking at what could be wrong (no i didnt open the device exept of taking out the SIM card and battery and back in again so my warrenty is still intact) Its pretty weird, the screen is black, but when I put it 'on' it vibrates 1 time as normal, I see black letters "Nokia" apear on a dark grey screen. And then nothing happends. The only thing noticable is that the screen goes from total black to dark grey for 2 seconds, it does this 3 times and then it stays black. And then I can push 'on' again and the exact same happends again.
So I thought, maby the battery went dead? I put in the charger again, and this time it kept on going from black to grey untill I unplug the charger. Also when I connect the USB to my computer, the pc finds the 'new device' and then immediatly it disconnects again. This happends everytime the 'cycle' starts again (going black to grey 3 times and then black). So it seems like it is going On, and then after the screen goes black for the last time it is turned Off again.
Its the only thing I see, nothing apears on the screen exept "nokia' (in a weird place aswell, at the middle-bottom instead of the middle where it normally apears).
I'm bashed... I bought this mobile 3 weeks ago, never dropped it or anything. Nothing seems to be damaged either, from the outside at least.
It was all fine untill this morning. Now im not sure wether it was because of uploading the mp3's, or because I plugged in the charger, or combination of either.
Again its about the Nokia 5610 Xpress Music, Has anyone encountered this problem or has suggestions? Else I'm afraid I will just have to get it back to a repair center in Amsterdam (after I told al my friends my new number and said that they could delete my old 1 :/)
Any help is appreaciated!

Well mate, the only experience i have with this phone (I have the same as yours) is that you should bring it back to a nokia care centre (for locations see posts above) and tell them what the problem is, then they should update/flash the software. In the worst case they will send it to external repairs, which will cost a few weeks (2-4). That is what is happening to my mobile as I'm typing...
Just ask them if they cant do it right in the store, they should be able to. Try to avoid that it is send to external repair as that will cost alot of time. It will help you to understand if you read the a/discussions/board/message?board.id=phones&message.id=34235

Flash lite player for Nokia-5610 xpressmusic

Anybody let me know how to install flash lite player on nokia 5610 phone.....
i know that the phone supports flash lite player but i m not able to find out how to download it on to my mobile and the website from where i can download the application.....

There's no user-installable Flash Lite player for S40 based phones.
It is either already built-in (part of the firmware), or it isn't. If it isn't, you can't add/install it.
This page claims it already has Flash Lite v2.1:

NOKIA 5610- 10 PROBLEMS!

Hello everybody this is my first post. I have a Nokia 5610 I bought 1 month ago and I want to describe the main dis advantages I can see in this phone.. Please comment if you own one with your opinions on what to do. help, or anything to add...
1. No SECURITY , you cant make the phone ask you for security code when you turn the phone.. This is a major flaw considering ALL my previous cell phones had this.. So if they steal your phone or someone wants to use it there is no barriers.. Really bad.
2. No InCall timer. This is amazing from nokia how can they release a phone that does not have the option of showing how long you've been talking??? This is really bad, you can choose "call resume" function which shows you the time at the end of the call but its not the same.
3. NO FLASH as LIGHT! what is this?? I mean how come it has such a great light to be used as flash and you cant use it as flashlight?? how many times you are in a dark situation? I was used to take out my phone and spare some light. (keys, dark stairs, ect.. even shooting video at night.) Well.. not possible.
4.MICRO USB .. Why??? why didint you just stay with miniUSB?? Why micro?? who uses micro? nobody.. so if you lost that cable its really hard to get and you cant charge it (phone )through a computer so its useless.. This slot is useful just to connect the computer to a PC.. Attention ; The charger is a different slot.
5. No 3.5mm jack.. so you cant connect your normal headphones you have to connect the nokia ones or use an adapter..
6.No Auto lock keypad.. You have to manually lock the keypad every time .
7.No battery warning signal.. There is no absolute sing of the battery telling you its going to finish.. No red line , no sound (MO), no screen message.. (SE) , no nothing.. you just go to sleep and wake up the phone has been with no battery since you who knows... you put it in your pocket go out.. check it a 2 am .. absolutely dead.. with no warning..
8. No MAPS,..
9. No searching songs or artist title through the numbers keyboard .. so stupid.. you have a thousand songs and you have to scroll allll the way down .. wouldn't it be quicker to just press the 1st letter??
10.Cant send SMS from the phonebook menu.. Im sorry but this is really retarded, you see the options of a contact on the phonebook list and theres 10 options but no "send sms" option.
So prepare to go to SMS menu and then not even scroll but ADD new recipient.. i mean **bleep**??
The rest is pretty decent.. nice sound , quality of images, interface, speed...
But nokia please!! cant you release a software update at least??

Hi there,
As an ex-user of Nokia 5610 ME..
1. No SECURITY , you cant make the phone ask you for security code when you turn the phone.. This is a major flaw considering ALL my previous cell phones had this.. So if they steal your phone or someone wants to use it there is no barriers.. Really bad.
My Reply: This feature is available at the Settings menu which you can change the setting of security.. there's 2 option there, if i'm not mistaken..It requires u to insert the securit code.. and for changes of sim card, it do requires the security phone unlock code.. maybe u might mislook the function there.. check it out..
2. No InCall timer. This is amazing from nokia how can they release a phone that does not have the option of showing how long you've been talking??? This is really bad, you can choose "call resume" function which shows you the time at the end of the call but its not the same.
My Reply: Correct me if i'm wrong, do u mean "Call Duration Timer?" If yes, then as the same judgement as above, you might mislook the function which you may edit settings on the "Call Setting"..
3. NO FLASH as LIGHT! what is this?? I mean how come it has such a great light to be used as flash and you cant use it as flashlight?? how many times you are in a dark situation? I was used to take out my phone and spare some light. (keys, dark stairs, ect.. even shooting video at night.) Well.. not possible.
My Reply: Ohh yea.. this could be a fair bid to nokia and consumer then.. there's a reason which why nokia doesn't provide the flash light, although 5610 user knew tht its' flash are bright enuff to shine a darkness.. AS consumer, we have the right to choose which is the phone which suits our lifestyle.. hence, for all future buyer on mobile, make a survey on needs and not trend.. coz it will ends up in unsatisfaction like me though..
4.MICRO USB .. Why??? why didint you just stay with miniUSB?? Why micro?? who uses micro? nobody.. so if you lost that cable its really hard to get and you cant charge it (phone )through a computer so its useless.. This slot is useful just to connect the computer to a PC.. Attention ; The charger is a different slot.
My Reply: haha... Gosh .. charging through PC is an added advantage.. and i would compliments u a cheers for this comments on Nokia.. Yea.. charging through mobile via USB is a useful features which do think all mobile should have.. Thumbs up !
5. No 3.5mm jack.. so you cant connect your normal headphones you have to connect the nokia ones or use an adapter..
My Reply: I'm partly lost here..
6.No Auto lock keypad.. You have to manually lock the keypad every time .
My Reply: This feature is available at the Settings menu which you can turns on the Automatic Security Keypad.. Your phone will be locked whenever you shut downs the slide..
7.No battery warning signal.. There is no absolute sing of the battery telling you its going to finish.. No red line , no sound (MO), no screen message.. (SE) , no nothing.. you just go to sleep and wake up the phone has been with no battery since you who knows... you put it in your pocket go out.. check it a 2 am .. absolutely dead.. with no warning..
8. No MAPS,..
My Reply: Ouch.. My fellow bro or sis.. this is the reason as we can see the technology and Nokia always comes out with a New..New..New.. mobile.. the technology never ends.. As mentioned earlier.. Nokia packages its' theme and concept or personality for each phone.. This Nokia 5610 is meant for music lover.. which there's fast key for any music turn on/of.. and its speaker.. As for consumer, we hv to knows wut we want and wut is the budget of any purchase.. Nokia comes out with quite of models which can cope with the consumer needs as of:-GPS; N95 8Gb, Navigator or etc..
9. No searching songs or artist title through the numbers keyboard .. so stupid.. you have a thousand songs and you have to scroll allll the way down .. wouldn't it be quicker to just press the 1st letter??
My Reply: Haven't been though this..
10.Cant send SMS from the phonebook menu.. Im sorry but this is really retarded, you see the options of a contact on the phonebook list and theres 10 options but no "send sms" option.
My Reply: Correct me if i'm wrong, do u mean tht through contacts, u would like to send a SMS..? If is, then u might miss a step tht makes u think tht u can't send any SMS though contacts.. I'll list down a few step below;-
1. Go to Contacts or press the "down" key
2. Choose any of your Pals name / number
3. Press on the name selected
4. You'll see your pal's name and number at the full screen
5. Press again the menu/ option
6. You'll see the list of option, "Send Message"
*** For an ex user of Nokia 5610, My main concern is their conponent as off the left/right slide radio on/off button .. In software, there's no issue for me.. nmw, advise as a user, purchase the right phone which caters your personality and needs.. It will gives u the positive bout Nokia technology..
Anyway, no offence on posting.. All the best to Explore the Music Life.. Cheers..

New successor for the nokia 5610?

i want to know if nokia has any plans of doing a succesor for the nokia 5610 xpressmusic
i know the nokia X3. but it doesn't have the same feature as the 5610 like music slider and a dual led flash
if theyre doing it
i wish it will have a
touch screen or just touch pad
new s40 series
still the music slider is still there and it will have a flashing music player lights while playing.
more louder a little bit cause this 5610 is much louder than 5800, nokia 5130(who says it is louder), nokia X3(which has 2 stereo type speakers but still no match for the 5610)
and an improved special audio chip
and many more revised
as much as it looks like the nokia 5610

Nokia 5610 charging problems

My nokia 5610 cell phone died. 3.7V Li-ion battery, got out my volt meter last night and the battery checks 2.9V. Obviously a dead battery. I assume that this battery is lost now and cannot be saved. My question though is I checked the voltage coming out of the power adapter at my wall and it is 6V so I assume the circuitry is in the phone that takes care of the charge cycle. Before the battery completely died my phone was still working and I tried to charge it, and the phone would not acknowledge that my charger was plugged in. When the phone finally died I plugged it in overnight and still nothing.
Is this typical that a battery will just stop accepting a charge? Or is it possible that the charging circuit in my phone has gone bad and will kill any battery I put in my phone? I'd rather not waste the money on another battery if it is my phone that is broken.

I posted this in another thread.
==============
Hello,
I never experienced any crashes/restarts with v4.81 but decided to try this anyway. (Gone from v4.81 to v9.40)
I haven't done much yet but here are some of the obvious improvements.
+ Navigation/phone response quicker
+ Camera much better, quicker, overbright gone so you can take close ups with the flash on. (no strange clicking noises as mentioned by some people who used v8.XX)
+ Standard Nokia movies now play smoothly with no juddering. Maybe it can now play MP4s with more than 12fps?
+ Not sure what this feature is called (Organic desktop?) but the default wallpaper now animates/changes. The bars/shades move. Looks nice.
Has there always been 22 ring tones?
That's about it for now, will continue to test
==============
New info
Games (added)
+ Tetris
+ Brain challenge vol2
Apps (added)
+ Youtube, have not tried
+ Opera mini
+ Widsets
Video clip quality settings added
+ High
+ Normal
+ Basic
I do not agree with your observations about the screen distortions.
This has never happened even with v4.81 on my phone.
I do not agree with your sound/music observation, it sounds clear and crisp compared to v4.81.
Why do you want to increase the dB gains on the specific frequency ranges?
By doing that you are messing up the sound quality yourself.
I disagree with your stereo widening observation, with it off the sound is better.
By enabling this feature you are causing some right channels to be crossed over to the left speaker and vice versa.
This only makes matters worse for head phones.
Stereo widening + your messing about with the dB (equaliser) you completely ruin the sound.
And I have experienced 0 popping.
Haven't tried the camera yet.
Those are my observations.

Nokia 5610 help!!!

Hey,
i have a nokia 5610 and i have two question:
1) above the screen, there are two things, one of them is the camera , what is the other thing and what does it do?
2) behind the slider, ( the on that goes to music player and radio ) , there is a light that keeps flashing, there is no missed call or anything that would cause it to flash. It doesn't flash all the time, from time to time it starts to work. why does it flash?
3) is there anyway that i can make the flash of the camera to work as a flash light?

three questions perhaps?
1. It's the light sensor. - it optimizes the screen ligth due to the light around you.
2. I am pretty sure this is the breathing light. How ever I am not sure how to turn it off - as my little brother had it a short time - a long time ago I googled it, and it seems like you can follow these steps: just go to setting>lights>lights effects on/off

Nokia 5610 problems

Hi all...
Does anyone know how I can 'flash' my nokia 5610? Its been behaving badly, i think its a virus. help anyone.

no such thing as a virus on mobile phones. this has been argued and refuted by many organisations and independent reviewers, as the kernel on phones are very secure and not conducive to hacking attempts.
anyway, earlier firmware versions of the 5610 have known to have many bugs so this is probably the reason why your 5610 is acting funny. my suggestion is to first back up your data, then restore your phone to factory settings through the option in the phone menu. if this still doesn't help you, check online for a firmware update and install, if there isn't an update available, reinstall the current firmware version. failing that, take your phone to your local nokia care centre for them to take a look at it. please mark my post as being helpful to you, if you could, i need some more positive feedback

Nokia 5610 theme problem.

Hey guys i got the new nokia 5610 blue but when i bought it, it didn't have it's themes it had the nokia 5610 red themes.. so can somebody please tell me where i can get the original nokia 5610 blue themes?
Thanks.

I think I’ve found an answer in the gsmarena given by MM.
Link - http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_5610-reviews-2086.php
"Hey to help everyone with the memory card going to default problem. It happens when you take the backcover off the phone, because if u look closely at the underside of the back cover, you will see that the metal framing around the camera and flash also acts as a connector for the MMC completing the circuit - there is a connector on the camera side and another on the flash side. So if you take the backcover off the phone while in use, you actually disconnect the memory card by breaking the circuit and thus any ringtones or wallpapers that you have set from the memory card goes back to default. Cheers n enjoy ur phones "
I hope this info will help.

Real Nokia 5610 doesn't play Video in QVGA at 30fp...

Hi all, I really disappoint that my Nokia 5610 doesn't play any resolution of video at 30fps, even i've tried whatever bitrate, whatever resolution (QVGA, QCIF, ...), whatever audio bitrate, it still can't play back smoothly with 30fps, onlt 15fps it supports. So why Nokia provide such imperfect information to us. My friend 5610 also can't playback 30fps, QVGA.

Umm, this is interesting...
