Nokia 6280 and dial-up

Hi all, I'm trying to configure my MBPro and 6280 so I can dial my ISP. When I try and connect (using varies settings ie modem script, ignore dial tone etc) I get the error 'No carrier detected. Please check phone line connection and try again.'
The phone is paired and syncs ok via iSync. The phone works ok in the Address Book and I can connect via GPRS ok.
Any help is appreciated.

I'm having the same problem.
I found one program that can solve it, but it costs about 90 euros. Launch2net. I tried the demo version and it works fine, all though via Bluetooth, which slows it down to 480kB/s.
I'm still looking for a free solution, or at least a lot cheaper, but maybe it helps you.

    Hi hobitton,
    I have had this problem before and i took it to a nokia service centre, i told them to clean it and also i told them if it was common, they said it was very common and the man said it happens to all the 6280's (mostly), then he cleaned it for me, i think i know how to clean it but i have NEVER cleaned it myself because i don't want to void my precious 24 months warranty but i'll give you some advice, NEVER try to clean this phone even if you had a solution NEVER clean it.

  • Nokia 6280 and NSU support: the final request

    I've decided to write this because it's extremely shameful that still now, more than 2 years after its introduction on the market, the 6280 hasn't an official update support, only due to the damned problem with the update from firmware version 3.40.
    Is it so difficult to implement into NSU a system of firmware version recognition, and, in case, to block updates for phones with that version installed?
    I continue not to understand this strange policy towards certain phone models, that obliges users to apply to unofficial, and illegal, upgrade methods (that work perfectly, if correctly used!)
    I hope that, with the release of the next firmware package 6.60 (if it'll be EFFECTIVELY released, instead of inserting false version numbers in the section "Can I update" of the upgrade page - see this /discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&thread.id=29440&view=by_date_ascending&page=1 ) you're going to correct this lack of availability.

    Ok so we cant help him but sometimes its good to let off steam, especially as his Nokia fone has been such a disgrace. I hope he reflects on his previous Nokia purchases , and when it comes time to upgrade he chooses a Nokia product. Its also good to keep in touch with customer service elements of Nokia, as this is just, if not more important than the actual product. If customer service is lacking then where is the confidence in buying with confidence !!

    cheers any help very appriciated

    Hi interior1
    Provided that you have a generous data plan, you could always try a Java based application such as Nav4All with an external Bluetooth GPS receiver on your S40 device:http://www.nav4all.com/languages/enguk/handset_nokia_6280.php?m=6280
    On S60 devices mapping data can be stored locally to obviate need to download data with associated costs involved.

  • Nokia 6280 v 81 helpppp

    Hi I have a nokia 6280 and i cannot at the moment access my inbox, i keep getting a message operation failed please try later. I am with 3 who advise i have the wrong version on my phone and need to be updated to version .81 BUT this can take a week as they need to take my phone. But i need my phone so bad for work etc so can anyone tell me if i can get this update online? ( i have tried the carphone warehouse too but they cannot help) Thanks sarah xxxx

    Strange, I would take it back and ask them to check it out again.
    Are you 100% sure that your 6280 was originally generic?
    Just out of interest what is the 7 digit product code on the label under the battery?
    First use the search to see if your question has already been answered...
    Secondly I will not knowingly assist in breaking the forum rules.
    My information is always changing, what I post at the time is usually true.

  • Nokia 6280 HELP

    hi I have a nokia 6280 and wanted to ask if is he a symbian?
    and if not can it be installed and how?

    You are confused.
    Every phone has an OS (operating system). Phones like the 6280 have an OS made by nokia called series 40 and there has been various versions, tha latest being S40v5 (the 6280 is S40v3).
    Smartphones have on OS that's built on symbian, and it's called S60, the current version is S60v3.
    You cannot change the OS in a phone.

  • Nokia 6280 volume button broke

    i have a nokia 6280 and the volume switch as broke on side and can not turn it up,ive taken it apart and little sensor inside as broke.Does anyone know a way to turn it up using the menu?

    First you have a 2 year warranty on the handset, Have you had the phone for more than 2 years?
    If you haven't you could have took it to your local Nokia repair centre to repair it under it's warranty.
    But you've took it apart so the warranty has been voided.
    The only way to repair it now is to take it into a normal repair shop.
    If you can turn the volume down then press the up button to turn it up

  • Nokia 6280 problems (resetting), especially on '3'...

    As per the request of a moderator (Karim) at the end of a different thread about the Nokia 6280, I am beginning a new thread here about the Nokia 6280 and problems people are encountering with it.
    I was upgraded by my network operator '3' onto the Nokia 6280 phone, which arrived on Thursday 9th February 2006. This is a '3-branded' variant of the standard Nokia 6280, with a 3 logo on the front and back, and some 3-specific features in the software.
    The phone looks great, and there are many good things about it, but there are some very weird bugs in the software:
    - The phone often resets itself (goes black, fast restarts) when changing profiles e.g. from 'General' to 'Silent'
    - When trying to change tones, the system seems to 'hang' after which no sound is produced from the phone OS (e.g. button presses, tone noises) until a hard reset is done
    - Various other bugs (not discovered by me, but mentioned by others in the previous thread) including text messages being interrupted half-way through, PIN request not being actioned even though activated, and media player issues.
    My phone revision information is as follows:
    Nokia 6280
    V 03.36
    05-12-05
    RM-78
    (c) Nokia
    Language:
    V 03.36
    05-12-05
    RM-78
    (c) Nokia
    C
    I am wondering about the following:
    - Does this phone support firmware updating?
    - If so, will Nokia provide a standard firmware update, or as my phone is a '3-variant' will I have to rely on 3 putting out a firmware update
    - Has anybody got any suggestions of how to proceed with this - I am within my 7 day return period, so could return it, but then I'd be without a phone and I'd prefer to keep the phone and have it fixed!
    Anyone else with these issues, please join the thread, for clarity I suggest people include what network their phone is on, and the firmware revision of the phone. This can be discovered by tapping *#0000# on their phone.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I upgraded my phone from 6630 to 6280 with 3 Network, three weeks ago. This is my third phone, and it's the same problem all over. After I transfer all my contacts and pictures etc via bluetooth, I tend to have a play around getting use to the new phone and without any warning the phone would just switch off. It would never switch on again. I tried recharging and leaving it overnight, nothing. Exactly the same thing happen to phone no.2 and no.3. Always when I just finished transferring contact details and pictures. I can't get it to switch on again. I am in the process of returning the 3rd 6280. I think I wouldn't bother with it.
    I originally asked for N70, and 3 keep telling me that they don't have it in stock. The other options they have given me are Motorola V3X and LG 8330 which I'm not keen on really as I would prefer a Nokia phone.
    Is this a known fault with 6280?. I will keep pressing 3 to give me the N70 or else. I am to the point of not bothering and just keep with my 6630.
    Has anyone had the same problem?

    I bought a replacement lens on the internet.
    To the problem, How shall I change it properly?
    Please help me!Message Edited by edvini on 03-Dec-200703:52 PM

    These parts are not conceived to be user-replacable, you should have the phone repaired by a Nokia service point rather than attepting it yourself - especially if the phone is still covered by its warranty.
    This repair will not be covered by the warranty, so you would have to pay for the repair, but if you attempt it yourslef and something else goes wrong with the phone you will be without warranty.
