Nokia 6020 POP3 settings - "Recieving Failed" :(

Hi,
This is my problem, hopefully someone can help...
I downloaded settings from the nokia website so i could access my yahoo.co.uk email account from my phone. This worked fine and straight away I was able to send e-mails from it. But when I tried to recieve any, I just get "Recieving Failed". That's it. I thought it might just be that I haven't left it long enough for the settings to kick in but 2 weeks later, still the same.
So I know it must be a problem with the POP3 settings but there isn't anywhere to change them. OK I can change the username and password but nowhere can I type in (or even see!) the server name or anything.
I tried google, nokia FAQ, searched this discussion board but to no avail. And when I tried e-mailing Nokia, I (re) typed in all my details which took ages, only to click "Submit" and get a "Page not found" error twice! (in fact, I am dreading clicking on "Submit" at the bottom of this page in case of the same error). Typical I thought, you type in a ridiculous amount of information registering for club nokia, then the exact same information again 2 minutes later just to send an email! which doesn't even work! how frustrating.
Anyway, rant overm sorry.
Please can someone help me, my hair is getting thinner by the minute
Thanks,
John.

Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I sorted it. Turns out Yahoo have POP3 access disabled by default. You need to log in on the web, and then enable it (it is free, hooray!).
Yessssss I rule.
How did you enable POP3 on Yahoo FOR FREE? My Option box on YahooMail want's Mail Plus and 19.99 $/Year for POP3!

  • [Nokia 6020] Need help retrieving phone contacts

    Hi all,
    My Nokia 6020's screen is cracked, but the phone powers up properly and I can make/ and receive calls. I no longer wish to use the phone, but want to retrieve the contacts stored in the phone memory.
    Option 1) Tried connecting the phone using a brand new, official Nokia CA-42 USB-Serial cable on Windows XP and followed the proper procedure to install the driver (ie, install before plugging in the cable, restart etc), but the PC Suite doesn't detect the phone. Updated to the latest PC suite but it still doesn't detect the phone. Is there any other options I can try out on the PC? Are there any settings that I might have to change on my phone?
    Edit: I also tried Mobile Master and Oxygen Phone Manager, but they're not able to detect my phone.
    Option 2) Copy all the contacts from phone memory to the sim card. As I cannot see the screen, I have no idea how to do this so would be grateful if someone can guide me through this process.
    Thanks for your time.
    Regards,

    perform a hard reset... I don't know if this works on nokia s40 phones.i've tried this on nokia 6600( the old fat smartphone)...
    make sure your phone is fully charged after doing this...
    turn off your phone
    remove and reinsert the battery
    press call key(the green one), number 3, and * key altogether and pressit wile turning on the phone.
    if the phone starts, don't release it yet...
    if it shows formatting, release it and wait for a couple...
    after that, your phone is fixed and back to the factory settings...

  • NOKIA 6020 Background

    Good day Sir/Madam
    I own a Nokia 6020 phone.
    Is there a way to change the background that is displayed behind menus, looking like circles? Is it possible to turn it off?
    Thank you for your time.
    Andrew Boiu.

    Yes, you can turn it off. Go to the display settings and then wallpaper, select it and set it to Off.

  • Nokia 6020 strange problem

    my nokia 6020 has been indicating the headphone/handsfree icon.
    this means a call comes in i cannot hear the caller using the headset.
    I have tried restoring settings, remove battery, change profile but no change.
    interesting thing is I HAVE NEVER USED THE HANDSFREE KIT on this phone.

    Try plugging the headset into the phone then take it out, might do something to the connector.

  • How to install nokia 6020 modem drivers?

    i have a nokia 6020 phone,i want to used it as a modem for my pc but i cant install the .inf file that i downloaded... tnx for helping!

    Please HELP!
    My Nokia is 6020, I would like to use it as a modem for a notebook (with Windows XP).I have CA-42 cable with a disk, so Nokia PC Suite was installed on my notebook, but attempt to connect to the Internet was fault because the notebook regarded the built-in modem as appropriate one and the only potential. So I downloaded Nokia6020IrDA_2000_XP.inf drivers from www.nokia.ru . It didn’t work either.  Now it identifies “PC Connectivity Bluetooth Modem - connected to COM6” (that is funny – I have no Bluetooth at all!). All Mobile settings are correct.  

  • I have a 6 week old 4s running 5.1.1 Just started recieving "failed sim" message the other day. This leaves me with no cell service . Service comes back after shutting down and restarting. at least until message reaapears. Has happened three times in two

    I have a 6 week old 4s running 5.1.1. Started recieving "failed sim" message yesterday. this leaves me with no cell service. Shutting down and turning back own seems to alleviate problem temporarily. It has happened three times now. Help.

    Sounds like you have a battry issue but don't want to believe it.
    If a car was running fine on one tank of gas, then you filled it up with another tank of gas and it began to run funny, one might suspect that tank of gas. But let's just say coincidence blew a valve-- would you think the new tank of gas was the culprit?
    BUT WAIT!! It just might have been! The gas could have been of higher octane and put more more strain on the valves; you know, like going from 87 octane (OS6) to 93 octane (OS7) and showing you the engine was on the edge of compromise.
    Sometimes you have to go with common sense. If everything else is ruled out, it must be the battery. And if it runs fine one moment in OS6 but immediately ***** in OS7, I'd believe my battery was suspect-- though comfy-- in OS6 but the OS7 showed its true power.
    Moreover, if you had the answer-- or didn't want to believe someone's more competent advice-- why did you even call?  You've already shown that you don't know much when you asked if you could go backwards after setting up the new OS as a new phone.
    Additonally, if you're such the know-it-all, but yourself the $29 battery and put it in yourself. It's a piece of cake.

  • Nokia 6020 problem in the US

    Hi.
    I have a question regarding the Nokia 6020. I'm going to New York next week and last time I went I couldn't get any reception for my phone. I checked with my operator here(Sweden) and they have assured me that it will work. So what is the problem?
    It should work as it is triple band. Is there a configuration that I need to change manually?
    Regards,
    Sam

    What band your company in the USA works with? maybe your cellfone does not have the band, eventhough the cellfone is 3band...

  • Connectivity of Nokia 6020

    I have bought to connection cables for Nokia 6020, the first was a DKU2, the pc would not recognise this. The second cable is 7210, the pc recognises the connection but I cannot find a driver for this. Any help would be appreciated

  • Problem:Image capture with Nokia 6020

    Hi,
    i want an idea about the issue of "Image Capture" from midlet.
    I tried my image capture application with SonyEricsson W550 it is working fine, and
    I tried the same appliaction with[b] i-mate SP3(Windows CE mobile)and with Nokia 6020 ("Both are MIDp2.0 support "), the application not even loaded and the exception as javax.microedition.media.MediaException
    one more thing the value of System.getProperty("video.snapshot.encodings"); become null.
    Please tell me what are all the mobiles will support the ImageCapture from Midlet.
    some exact (supporting)mobile models please...
    Thankyou,

    Hi,
    The sun article says 3650 will support the MMApi options even its MIDP 1.0, then what about MIDP 2.0 devices(6020).
    Somebody said even some devices may MIDP2.0, but it may not be the complete implementation device.
    What is mean that .... like either supporting only audio ???

  • Nokia 6020 wont switch on

    i have the nokia 6020, the other day i found my phone swiched off when i tired to turn it on, the lights on the phone turns on for 2-3 seconds then its goes off. The phone is not turning on, this happens every time i press the power button
    last time this happened a third day i bought the phone(8 months back)i went to the nokia repair center and then said my phone software has a virus( this is not possible as it was a new phone unless it was a defective phone) so i paid for it and they reinstalled the phone
    but now im facing the same problem, what should i do
    can i restall the phone myself, last time when i gave it to the nokia care they deleted all the information in the phone
    how do i reinstall the phone with out deleting the infomations on the phone.
    any help

    I assume you have checked that this is not just a battery problem.
    Unfortunatly a firmware flash will delete all the items you have provided.Their is no exception to this.
    Make a back up of the items you want to re install after the nokia repair centre have carried this out.
    I wonder if something in one of the itmes you have downloaded is causing the issues ?

  • Scheduled refresh - Test connections settings validation failed: one or more connections did not pass the test

    I copied a workbook that has a working scheduled refresh
    modified the data model, added some new reports
    added a new source (PQ from azure market place)
    uploaded workbook to new powerbi location.
    get the following error when i try to turn on scheduled refresh - this is even if i just select one data source that is still identical to the original (working) workbook

    Still a problem and not just for me but other users going by the threads on here...
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/eb8682f4-9b40-456a-a7f1-45627a0f4ff0/cannot-schedule-refresh?forum=powerbiforoffice365#eb8682f4-9b40-456a-a7f1-45627a0f4ff0
    Applies to all worksheets that utilise a PQ connection registered in the gateway. (my gateway is on an azure VM)
    Existing worksheets receive this warning. New workbooks that utilise these connections also receive this warning
    Adding a new PQ to the gateway and a new workbook that uses the new connection also receives this warning.
    Every PQ connection I have receives this warning. My PQ connections are all to web resources. Most are to the workflowmax.com API, and one is to the Azure Marketplace to retrieve data for a date dimension.
    Note: this does not prevent me from scheduling or triggering a refresh, and the refresh itself completes successfully. It's just a weird warning that caused confusion as it sounds like the actual refresh will fail as well seeing as the connection test failed.

  • My daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode.  restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!

    my daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode.  restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!
    how can i get this ipod reset.  She now has an iphone so this is going to be used by someone else in the family and should be simple to do but itunes just keeps booting it out even though it recognises that it was previously connected to our itunes account as all of the children were on my account

    That has nothing to do with an update server. Do the following:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
