Nokia 6230i needs re-programmed

I have had my Nokia 6230i for nearly 1.5 years and twice it has shut down on me - the screen just went blank. The first time, I just took it into the carphone warehouse where they took out the battery and re-booted it for me. They told me that my phone is still within its warranty and that I might just like to re-programme it - however, I would loose all my information on it. The second time it happened, I just switched it off and then on again myself and that seemed to work.
I'd just like to know has anyone else experienced this problem and had to re-programme their mobile? Plus, is there a way of saving all what I have on my mobile?
Thank you

Hi Sanedevil,
Resetting the phone will almost certainly not work, and if you were to do so, you would also loose all the data in the phone.
The problem is almost certainly due to the fact it got wet.
Although you said it did work for a while, the LCD, circuit board and components have probably been slowly corroding and this is what has caused the screen to go white.
Changing the LCD might work, but a reset will certainly not.
hope this helps.

  • Need help with Nokia 6230i

    Hi Everyone!
    I've bought Nokia 6230i phone with 512 Mb MMC card but it is impossible to load there any program - only music and videos. Is there any firmware (maybe not official) for this phone which can allow to load java programs on MMC card? Thanks before.

    Thanks for your replyings
    I know about this (that Pc suit allows to load prgs in phone memory). But does MMC card allow to do the same? As for me according to filesystem that is used there, it is possible. 1 Mb space, which allocated me to load programs is too small. Maybe you know how to use that 512 Mb which is on my MMC card?
    And one more thing. Does anybody know how to load programs with PC Suite not only in Collection directory, but into Games?
    Thanks alot, who answered.

  • Nokia 6230i white screen. needs reset?

    hi all,
    I recently got my Nokia 6230i a bit wet. I put it up in the sun and it worked fine for sometime, but then the screen went completely blank. Everythin in the phone works well except the screen.
    I've found out that resetting might help. How can I reset my phone?
    Can anyone help?

  • Nokia 6230i Bluetooth problem connecting HELP!!!

    Hi, I have spent the best part of the day trying to establish whether my new nokia 6230i mobile phone that I received for xmas is faulty or is it something I am doing wrong. I just cannot seem to connect to my computer via the Bluetooth or infrared. I have been reading other peoples problems with the same thing on various websites and I thought rather than try and struggle anymore somebody here may be able to help!!! I downloaded to PC suite that came with the phone, and even downloaded a higher version (apparantly a newer one).But my phone just wont connect. I then managed to download - 1.6.1 from http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=607&kind=8
    which seems to be working fine but as soon as i tried to connect it just will not find my connection on my phone. Do i need to buy any other accessories before I can connect?? I might also add that we also tried on my partners laptop and nothing is happening at all.Am i doing something wrong. somebody please tell me if I need to buy extra USB ports before using this feature. Although being Bluetooth I thought this was wireless?? Also any recommendations on how to use the infrared would be great to. Sorry to drag this on - i am not new to phones as i have had many but this has got me stumped. Thanks in advance for any help. Dawnie33

    If your Bluetooth solution is Bluesoleil, I would firstly update your Nokia PC Suite to latest version, 6.70.22 from www.nokia.com/pcsuite ( I don't recall by heart what was the level of BlueSoleil support in PC Suite 6.5, but it can be that your problem is partly related to BlueSoleil not being officially supported with that old version of PC Suite (6.5).
    Then the next thing is to look around for intructions how you make sure that if you have Windows Xp SP 2 (which has microsoft own Bluetooth sw solution that easily "fights" with any other Bluetooth sw), how you make the Bluesoleil work in your PC flawlessly.
    Google is good help for that, search for links like: "BlueSoleil sw problem in XP SP2" or similar and look for instruction how you make sure you only have BlueSoleil sw in active use.

  • Nokia Suite Needs to be repaired continuous error

    Dear All,
    The Nokia Suite still not working since ver.3.89 update and giving the error "Nokia Suite needs to be repaired" .  Since that update and till this moment with all trials of uninstall & reinstall & New updates & New beta versions.............etc are not working.
    I'm using windows XP(SP3)
    The Error message is "Nokia Suite Needs to be repaired" , if you choose repair it's an endless cycle.
    Can Anyone help with that.

    Hi guys i have an idea with my own experiance. (1) When nokia suite install error occur then i import 2 certificate .cer files (google for it) and nokia suite installed very easy. (2) after 1-2 months nokia suite corrupt because i restore previous restore point, then i remove and reinstall nokia suite now it show install error code 1601. Then
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315346
    i try method 1 in above site then nokia suite installed normally but (3) now when i open nokia suite it show "needs to be repair" endless error
    but don't worry please try this-
    install "total uninstall 5" and remove nokia suite, nokia connectivity cable drive and pc connectivity solution with this software, but remember that don't remove above 3 with add or remove program only remove above 3 with total uninstall 5, because this software remove every nokia suite related files in whole pc system. Now restart pc and reinstall nokia suite and see magic. Now nokia suite working fine. Now you can empty recycle bin.
    Thanks

  • Nokia 6230i operation failed

    hi!
    I'm using a Nokia 6230i version 1.4, Nokia PC suite 6.8 and Bluetooth software 1.4.1 build 7, and Windows XP 2.
    the problem is i can't install an application from the nokia application installer. i can see the other applications installed on my phone but whenever i try to install another one, it keeps me an "operation failed" message. in the past, i have installed more than five applications, but now, i can't install a single app.
    please do help me. thanks!Message Edited by imhoney28 on 24-Jul-2006

    Hi,
    I think that reason is this: There are not enough free memory for applications anymore (BTW: free memory for applications is smaller than phone's whole free memory)
    Delete not needed applications from phone and try again...

  • PC Suite fails to sync my Nokia 6230i with Outlook

    Hi,
    Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can make my Nokia 6230i sync with Outlook?
    I am using PC Suite which connects to my phone perfectly (using bluetooth). All functionality seems to work, except for the Sync function! The 'error' is that it reports 'synchronisation completed' but 0 entries have been updated.
    I have followed most of the solution directions on the web, but have not succeeded in making it work.
    My config:
    PC Suite 7.1.51.0
    PC Connectivity Solution:  Version 10.24.0.0
    Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver: Version 7.1.29.0
    Operating system:

    Hi Marina,
    Connect the phone via USB
    Open Nokia Suite
    Click the blue and white lifebuoy icon furthest to the right
    Click Installed Programs and wait for the list to load
    Click the Start page icon furthest to the left
    Click Synchronize all
    * Sync is slower than usual and fails with errors 80100023 and 80043c93
    Workaround:
    Close Nokia Suite
    Disconnect the phone from the computer
    Connect the phone via USB
    Open Nokia Suite
    Click Synchronize all
    Now works as usual
    Windows 7 64-bit / Nokia N8-00 Belle Danish / Nokia Suite 3.3.89
    The small Qt stability update for Belle is installed on the N8.

  • Nokia 6230i and Mercedes Car. Working.. Just a cou...

    Hi I've got a Mercedes C220 '55' reg.
    Nokia 6230i and Nokia B6 787 5846
    The phone works well in the car, but I have a couple of questions:
    How do I program speed dials for use in the car ? If I press and hold '2' in the car, I get a error similar to 'no entry'..
    If I have a contact on the phone who has multiple numbers assigned to them, the car only seems to show there name if they ring from their main number.. Anyway around this ?
    Also is there any way to dial on of the entries other numbers, not just the main number ? Thanks

    anyone have any ideas on this ??

  • Where can I find Games for my Nokia 6230i

    I have a Nokia 6230i, I would like to find some additional games to download for it.
    I have even worked out how to install games onto it from .jar files (this seems to be a problem to some on this board)
    The only games I can find to install are freeware .jar games on sites other than Nokia, these seem riddled with adverts and delay screens ... not what I want.
    Where can I download games that I can then install ... happy to pay for them ... just cant find any on the Nokia websites.
    Many Thanks for any help,
    (I dont have internet connectivity with my provider so I cant download direct to my phone.)

    The best place for quality games for that old model is www.gameloft.co.uk .  Not sure if they need a data connection or give you the files.
    Other than that sifting through the junk that you find on google is your only option.
    I would be surprised if nokia offered games for it through it's ovi store due to the age of it, again a data connection would be needed. http://store.ovi.com

    The 6230i is too old to be supported by the nokia software updater.
    It can only be updated at a nokia care point.

    Canada • Middle East and Africa
    Elsewhere: Click here, select your country, go to the support section, then select repair.

  • Downloading photos from Nokia 6230i

    I have got pictures on my phone that I want to download to my pc to get copies printed.  I have looked at the boards here but only got more confused.  A phone shop I asked told me that a connecting cable should have been supplied with my Nokia 6230i to do this.  After searching through a heap of unidentifiable spaghetti kept over the years, I can't find the right thing.  I have a disc that I have never used called "PC Software for Nokia 6230i" - is this relevant?   I would be grateful for some basic information so I don't feel so foolish.  Thanks in advance.

    I have owned quite a few 6230i's and I don't remember any of them coming with a cable. I had to buy the cable myself.
    The cable you need is the DKU2. You could also use Bluetooth if you have a PC/laptop with Bluetooth. Last and my favourite solution is to remove the memory card from the phone and use the card reader which most pc's come with nowadays.

    You need settings for MMs and GPRS sending to your phone. Check out here http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4222200 , you may be able to send them from Nokia website. Failing that if you contact your network provider they will be able to send you the settings
