Nokia 616 and 8800

I'm trying to use my nokia 8800 with 616 car kit in hands free mode since i don't have external antenna, but it keeps going into sim access mode.
I've searched the forum, but there seems to be no topics adressing this issue.
Is there any way to disable this mode in 8800(like in e61) or configure 616 to only work in hands free mode?Message Edited by 2funk on 10-Jan-2007

You can buy a autolead for this vehicle, it connects to the amplifier in the boot, i have done quite a few and had no problems. I would try and find a decent cellular engineer most garage engineers are not clued up with thing like this.

  • Nokia 616 cannot connect to iphone

    Hi,
    i have a brand new nokia 616 and it cannot connect with my iphone, i have tried everything to make them work together but nothing works...
    please help!
    E.

     Have just upgraded my 2G iPhone to v3.0 software and the 616 will now longer connect (it worked bine with the 2.1 and 2.2 software). Sometimes it will find the phone sometimes it won't, but even when it finds it it will not initiate the pairing process.
    Anyone managed to get the 616 to work with iPhone v3.0 firmware?

  • Downloading contacts between Nokia 616 carkit and ...

    Have paired my Motorola phone to a Nokia 616 carkit and can take and receive calls by bluetooth. Unable though to download contacts.have been through manual and followed their instructions to no avail. Get error "download failed.general error"
    Any ideas on what to do next?

    You need an additional application on your phone to enable it to sync with car kits, this applies to kits from other manufacturers not just nokia.
    You need to scour the windows mobile forums or google as it's a windows mobile program, not a nokia program.

  • Connection lost between Nokia 616 Car Kit and a No...

    I recently upgraded from a Nokia 9300 to an E71, but retained my Nokia 616 Car Kit. The Nokia website confirms that the E71 and 616 are compatible. My E71 has been paired with the 616 and configured as User 1 in remote SIM mode. The E71 Bluetooth settings have been set up so that it will connect automatically, without asking authorisation every time.
    The E71 connects to the car kit without a problem, when the car is started, but often looses the connection during the trip. The 616 will then display “Connection Lost”, followed by the request “Reconnect to User 1?”. Strangely the black “User 1” phone icon is still displayed in the top right-hand corner of the 616 display. When I push the Navi Wheel it attempts to reconnect, but every time it comes back with the message “User 1 Not Found”, despite the fact that the phone has not been moved and is still less than 1m from the 616 controller. I can only reconnect after the vehicle had been switched off and restarted, i.e. when the 616 reboots.
    Why does it frequently loose connection? A number of times I have noticed that it looses connection when I drive through an area with no or a very weak cell phone signal. I don’t think the cell phone signal strength should have an effect on the Bluetooth connection between phone and car kit.
    Why won’t it re-connect? I can’t stop and switch off the car every time the connection is lost!
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hi, I have bought a car with this equipment and I have the same problem.
    I tried following:
    PAIRING:
    - first from the phone discover Bluetooth accessories - it will find the N616
    - enter the code to the phone
    - N616 ask for the same code as you enter to the phone - enter it
    After this, the phone is paired, but not connected.
    CONNECTING:
    - then set up Bluetooth in the phone as visible
    - try connect (as user 1 or user 2) from N616 to the phone - you do not need to specify which phone has N616 to find - it will find your phone if it is visible (one step before)
    - if everything is OK, your phone is connected
    - you can access the menu, reset N616 to factory settings - but you need to make all steps again
    This list works for me, any other steps not...

  • Can't connect or reset Nokia 616 car kit

    I've just bought a used car which has Nokia 616 Car kit fitted. I can't connect as either user and I can't get to the infamous standby screen to get into the menu to do a reset of the settings. I've tried holding down the "hang up" button to get to the screen but nothing.
    I really would like to get this piece of kit working as I will find it very useful.
    Any help is very appreciated.
    Thanks
    Ant

    Not sure myself, but tyr disconnecting the power from the kit as I think that will reset it.
    If not go into the bluetooth menu of the kit and reset it
    Please see the attached link with the instruction book

  • Nokia 616 - Contacts

    Hello,
    I'm using :
    User Profile 1 - Internal SIM ; carphone
    User Profile 2 - Hands free via Bluetooth ; Nokia 6680
    Is there anyway to
    a) copy contacts list from User 2 to User 1; or
    b) share contacts between the two user profiles ?
    I've noticed that Nokia 616 can handle with multiple contacts under the same name (phone, mobile 1, mobile 2, ...). I'm using this facility on my Nokia 6680 and would like to do the same when using the carphone but don't know how to copy the contacts list (phonebook) because it's not possible to use the SIM for this operation, as the SIM doesn't allow it (multiple contacts under the same name).

    Thanks for your hint I've tried first the older file, because it was directly linked in another forum. Now I used Nokia_616_Contacts_Download_S60_3.1.sis and finally it works.
    The installation shows that this app is not compatible and after installing it even so, ther pop up an system error message box. 
    After I delete all bluetooth connections (from the fse and phone) and rebooting the N97, I can start the file from the programs folder. After reconnecting to my car the download had started and I have access to the Phonebook
    Also I want to mention that I tested it not on the original nokia 616, but with the inbuild system of an AUDI, which supports rSAP only.

  • Nokia 616 car phone with E51

    Hi,
    So I have the Nokia 616 bluetooth car phone, I had the E50 and it worked fine, but ever since I got the E51 it never picks up a network when I connect. I manage to connect and download my contacts, my phone goes into remote sim mode as it should but anytime I try and make a call there's no network and it tells me "no network coverage" any ideas?

    I think you need to head over to the Forum Nokia Site.

    This is where developers can get help.

  • N8 with Nokia 616 car kit

    Advice anyone? I'm pretty sold on getting an N8, due to the fact that Nokia seem to build a robust phone that gets better reception than most others when used as a phone. The only real issue at the moment seems to be that it will not be compatible with my nokia 616 car kit (possibly the best car kit ever made, and still being sold today). Does anybody know if there will be an upgrade to get around this issue or, any other solution? I gather that it's possible to get other makes of 'smartphones' with BT3 to connect and work with the 616... so why can't the N8, especially seeing as they both have NOKIA stamped on them??

    I do not have N8, i have N97mini... but i have that carkit.
    My findings are that with E71 and N97mini there was trouble involved. You can pair, you need a special software on E71 to get the contacts downloaded, and both do loose connection after a while.
    Sometimes there is no connection at all, and then you have to switch off and on the bluetooth on the phone to get it working again.
    E71 then was obviously fixed with new firmware. Bluetooth was stable after the update. On N97mini i am still waiting for some improvement.
    Did also monitor car-bluetooth topics in this board. There are several users complaining, that their devices did work with very old mobiles, but not with the newer ones.

  • Nokia 616 Contacts Sync for 6131

    I have the nokia 616 car kit and i was using it with my 6630 perfectly , now i bought nokia 6131 and it said on the 616 page that it supports it , but when i want to update my contacts on the cart kit from the phone it needs the above software which i cannot install on the 6131 because it doesn't support .SIS files, is there any ideas ?

  • CarKit 616 and Audi OEM Microphone

    Is it possible to use the Audi OEM microphone, which comes with the Audi hands-free set and is mounted near the rear mirror, as well with the CarKit 616?
    I understand, that a proper plug needs to be installed, but aside from this? Maybe this microphone is the same as one of the Nokia's anyways? The Audi part number is 8L1 862 373 A.
    At the moment, I don't have any other info about the micro.
    Thanks, Thomas

    Well, the Audi one's characteristics are exactly matched to the installation position and it is directed towards the driver.
    No doubt, that the one supplied by Nokia will work perfectly. I always had CarKit90 in my previous cars (with the Nokia micro) and I was very content.
    However, this time I just want to reuse the Audi mic, which is perfectly integrated. At least, I want to find out if it is a option at all, or if some electrical paramters (impedace, ...) stand against it, which make it impossible.
    So, if anybody has some experience with this setup (CarKit 616, Audi hands-free telephone microphone in an Audi A4 Avant 2006/07), either positive or negative, pls. let me know
    Thanks, Thomas

  • Issues with Ovi store in Nokia N8 and the OS is ha...

    Hi,
    I have taken Nokia N8 in the month of March. It was all working fine and all of sudden I am noticing that the Ovi store is not opening tried resetting to factory settings, It did not help. Tried reinstalling the Ovi It also did not help. I went to Nokia Care and they said that they need to upgrade the software, They did but after that also the Ovi store is not opening they were also not able to install the ovi. they said that they need to check and if they cant then they need to send it to Delhi, I asked them for a Back up phone but they say that they cant give. what is this we take a Branded mobile paying such huge amount and when we have to give it service they say it will take a week to 10 days and for a time untill they confirm when they would give the mobile they cant provide a back up phone. Its really bad on Nokia. Its damaging the reputation of Nokia. Can this be looked into. Well I went to nokia care expecting a good hospitality but I felt like I went an Open market where if you want leave it else please keep moving....

  • Nokia 5030 and GSM 850/1900

    Hi,
    My brother bought a Nokia 5030 phone for his trip to the USA, on the Nokia website at http://europe.nokia.com/find-products/devices/nokia-5030/specifications Nokia 5030 according to specifications it support the following frequencies: EGSM 900/1800
    GSM 850/1900 
    The phone worked fine on the EGSM 900/1800 Frequency. 
    Before buying we checked with Nokia support and they told him that the phone should work in the USA. Now he is there and his Nokia 5030 couldn't detect any operator either by auto or manual search, he tried putting his SIM card in another phone and it detected a network, so its not the SIM.
    I have tried contacting Nokia support in my country, and they still told me that the phone should work in the USA.
    They told to try and perform a factory reset, but it didn't help.
    Also the box says "made in Romania" and it has only EGSM 900/1800 written on it.
    Also in the manual there is in mention of GSM 850/1900 frequency.
    (http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/guides/Nokia_5030_UG_en.pdf)
    My brother had to buy another phone (a Nokia) to communicate with me.
    Is there something wrong with that particular Nokia 5030 phone,
    or it does not support GSM 850/1900 frequencies,
    in that case why Nokia support tells me that it should work and the Nokia website lists that frequency in the specifications.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I see I’m not the only one that encountered that issue.
    I think that unless you have a manual or box that says that the device supports GSM 850/1900 frequencies, it will unfortunately not work and I think that software update won’t solve it as it appears to be a hardware issue.
    Its looks like that they’ve listed this phone as a quadband in their internal documentation so that the tech support and sales thinks that this phone is a quadband while its not.
    (I called twice before buying and spoke with two different customer service representatives that assured me that the phone supports the US frequencies, and that it must have been a mistake that the manual does not list it as such.)
    I hope that Nokia will notice and finally update the Nokia 5030 online specifications page, so that it would explicitly state that Nokia 5030 is not a quadband phone, like they did with their other phones.
    Here is a little update:
    After escalating my support request, and speaking to the customer support manager (and repeatedly asking for them to verify it with global Nokia), Nokia Israel (It’s actually represented in Israel by a company called Eurocom) acknowledged my request to return the phone for a full refund to the retailer, and offered me a small compensation (which I guess is better that no compensation at all).
    Today I should return it to the retailer, and I hope there won’t be additional problems with that.
    One thing I liked about the phone, (I guess this feature is available on most new Nokia’s phones) is its alarm clock feature that pronounces the current time as it tells you to wake up…
    One more thing,
    Notice the fine print that appears on the nokia 5030 specs page:
    “The availability of particular products, services and features may vary by region. Please check with the Nokia dealer nearest you. These specifications are subject to change without notice”
    I hope that you will be able to solve the problem like I did.
