Nokia 6233 v05.10 odd behaviour

Hello!
After thoroughly searching not only this board but the entire Internet, I found no answer to my question so I decided to register and ASK.
I need to know if any of you owners of a Nokia 6233 observed this odd behaviour of your phone - so please keep reading.
I purchased the phone 16 days ago. Being my first Nokia, I took time to exploit its every feature, therefore draining the battery quite quickly. I discharged and fully charged the battery at least 3 times in the first 3 days, without leaving it plugged-in overnight (as far as I know this is no longer necessary). The battery life time increased progressively until a maximum of three days of normal use, meaning moderate talking (under 20 minutes per day), little or no use of Java apps, camera, media players or GPRS/EDGE connection. The screen savers are off, power saver is on, sleep mode is on. Packet data connection - when needed and network mode is GSM only because I do not use 3G. All these should get me the best stand-by time possible, right? Well, they did, until...
I bought a new microSD card, 2.0 GB storage, made by SanDisk. The card works fine, I put my favorite music and video clips on it - all the stuff you do when you have enough space. Since then, the battery life decreased SUBSTANTIALLY to LESS THAN 24 HOURS. And there's more. The battery drains even if the phone is turned off, in roughly the same amount of time. I have never ever seen anything like this. Sometimes the battery is so low that the phone takes a few minutes before displaying the battery charging icon and, when started, it asks for hour/date settings.
So, I need to know if anybody else noticed battery life decrease with bigger memory card capacity, and what's to be done.

Have you tried using the in-box memory card(That came with the phone) again? There's something wrong with your phone and battery if the problem still occurs..

    Problems with software the update with Nokia 6233
    Hello,
    I have so far some-paints tries my software to update.
    Each time the update procedure begins, sometime stands then on the telephone “test mode”.
    On the computer wars I the reference in the update manager “connection to the telephone broken off” and wants the update to again start.
    If I change my profile attitudes since that for example, then after a telephone restart again deleted.
    What there can I make?

    It sounds like your 5800 has the earpiece fault that was common with 5800's made before February.
    You need to take it to a nokia care point for repair under warranty.
    Care points/service centres and repair info:
    UK • Europe • Asia-Pacific • USA •
    Canada • Middle East and Africa
    Elsewhere: Click here, select your country, go to the support section, then select repair.

  • Daylight saving in the NOkia 6233 ?

    Does the Nokia 6233 support Daylight Saving ? If yes, how can I set it in my phone ?

    It doesn't do it automatically, like a PC...it isn't that clever. You need to change it yourself. Be sure to set the time zone rather than change the clock, otherwise the phone may display incorrect times for SMS messages etc.

  • Please help....nokia 6233 and 6300 synchronisation...

    hello there everyone , i used to have a nokia 6233 and i recently switched to 6300 , i tried to copy the list of contacts on my 6233 to the 6300 but to tell you the truth i did'nt know how to do it!!! the only thing i managed to do sucessfully is to set my phones to be connected with my computer wirelessly through blutooth but the rest of the process seems to be very complicated and i need someone to tell me how to move my contacts to my new phone ,,,,
    cheeeers,
    wesam

    Well, you can try this:
    1) Only Connect 6233 first to PC, then open PC Suite and click on the Contacts tool
    2) Browse thru the contacts and make sure that everything is there, then click on one contact, press Ctrl-A (select all) on the keyboard then press Ctrl-C (copy)
    3) Open Windows Explorer and create a temporary folder on your PC (i.e. c:\temp)
    4) Browse to the temporary folder and press Ctrl-V (paste) and this will copy all contacts from 6233 to the computer. After this has been done, disconnect the 6233 and connect the 6300.
    5) In this same folder, again select all the contacts and press Ctrl-V to copy them
    6) Again, open PC suite and click on the Contacts tool. If there are contacts shown in the window, you may select them all (Ctrl-A) and delete them first, or if you don't want, then leave the contacts as is.
    7) While in the Contacts tool, right-click on any one of the contacts you see and then select "Paste" from the menu. This should paste all the contacts from the 6233 to the 6300 phonebook.
    Hope this helps. =)

  • Odd Behaviour with DVDs on IMac G5 20inch 1.8 GHz

    Suddenly the Superdrive DVD/CD (MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-825, Firmware DBN7) shows odd behaviour.
    It still reads CDs. But when a DVD is introduced, it will start "DVD Player" automatically, but then there is no hint of the disk. Neither does it show on the desktop, nore would it play. DVD Player would not eject it, but the eject button on the keyboard would.
    The DVD is ok, as it would play on my Powerbook G4 without problems.
    Any idea what might be causing this? - I had just performed the "Pro update"! Thanks for your help!
    iMac G5 20inch 1.8 GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Hve you checked to see whether a different DVD will play, Bernd?
    You might want to try deleting com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist from your Home/Library/Preferences folder, restarting and then seeing if it works.
    Cheers

  • Need help with Nokia 6233

    Hello,
    I had a nokia 6233 about December 2006 and had it for a year.
    Had a Nokia N95 for a while and then wanted an iPhone, sold the N95 and carried on with my new iPhone which I got in July, which I'm pretty happy with. Until it breaks a week ago.
    I now my old phone (6233) and have a question.
    It is an Orange phone, which isn't unlocked, I have a 1GB microSD card in it, which I'd assume would merge with the phones useless memory. No. It doesn't. Orange had this stupid idea that installing a "Downloads" application which uses all the phones memory.
    I send a text which is fine. I then recieve the reply, and I get a message telling me that the phone hasnt got enough memory to save the message so I need to delete something. All thats in the phones memory is the "Downloads" application. Now I have a problem. I can't delete the "Downloads" application because it's a system file. The memory card has memory but I cant save texts or anything on that I think. Unless theres a way I don't know?
    Anyway, I was trying to find out if I can delete the Downloads application. Is it possible?
    Thanks in advance.
    Ryan.
    Message Edited by ryanlancaster13 on 18-Aug-2008 11:09 PM

    I am having the same problem and wanted to know if anybody has solved this. I have a 6233 with latest updates from nokia and trying to run latest opera, gmail, google maps. I am able to browse the web using the nokia software already on the phone and get the [G] sysbol at the top of the screen. A couple of things particular to my situation are I am in the US and the carrier I have ATT(formaly cingular) claims they do not support this phone. The programs have downladed and installed. But when I run them I get the packet data service first message. One funny thing is that my brother has the exact service plan I have and he is able to use all the above programs on his sony ericson w810i. This make me believe that my problem still lies in my setting somewhere.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Sorry for my bad english

    People...you should learned your lesson about Nokia service...you know they do not respond...they do not care...I mean they do but in their terms. It does not make sense to me either but I gave up trying to reach them. I updated my 6233 phone today from 4.90 to 5.10. It was available today. So the question is: why did they make it available IF they saw the mess it is so far? Would I ever get an answer? No. Do they care? No. So...relax...there is no sugar!
