the fact that the back light is on even with the phone turned off is disturbing. anyway, remove the battery, that should turn the backlight off, wait for few seconds and then replace the battery back,don't turn te phone on,  check to see if the backlight turns on again, if it did , then it's most propaly a hardware defect that should be checked by a nokia care point. if on the other hand the backlight stayed off, and the problem appeared only after you turned on the device for the first time, then i think you should reinstall your firmware and check again, if problem persisted after firmware reinstallation/update then take the phone to the nearest nokia care point.

  • Nokia 6280, lose of reception all of a sudden

    Hi,
    a few months ago My nokia 6280 all of a sudden lost reception even though i live in a full reception area and always have full 4 bars. It lost it for 3 days and i thought it was a network fault, but when i took sim card out and put it in an old fone it worked fine.
    tonight, it has done the same thing but this time, it loses reception completely, and then 2 mins later gets full again!, it is really annoying cos i cant make any fone calls or send txts. it just says error in connection
    ive tried turning it on and off and takin battery and sim out, but no luck...
    any ideas? and anyone experience the same?

    Hello there,
    Don't worry i had the same problem for a whole week!
    Ended up using my trusted Sony Ericsson W850i instead of my 6280.
    What i did was i took the battery out for a whole day and it simply worked again. I don't know what the problem was but it may not be similar to yours.

    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 - Flight mode

    Hello,
    In the User Manual for Nokia 6280, on page 59, it's written that this phone supports the Flight Mode.
    User Manual: http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/guides/Nokia_6280_UG_en.pdf
    However, I don't see such a choice in my Profiles list. Can anybody suggest me how to enable it?
    Firmware version: 3.81.
    Phone is bought from T-Mobile Germany.
    Thanks in advance,
    Lau

    At this time, you will have to take your handset to a local Nokia service centre/point.

  • Nokia 6280 - how do you get it offline?

    I recently purchases a second hand Nokia 6280. According to the Quick Start Guide under Phone hints it says: "Offline Mode: in the Profiles menu is offline mode, which turns off the mobile network connection. Choose this mode to use your Nokia 6280 when normal phones must be switched off (on planes, for example)" I do not seem to have this offline mode as an option. I get the following options only: General, Silent, Meeting, Outdoor, My Style 1, My Style 2 and Lock Keypad. Anybody got any suggestions, or is the Guide simply wrong ? Cheers

    You'd have to take it to a service centre for an update.
    There is no guarantee you'll get 5.92 though as it depends if the handset is operartor/network branded or not.

  • Nokia 6280 flash player

    I am looking for flash player for my nokia 6280 V.05.92 RM-78 Lot of themes and clips won't work i cant find any player.Is there any option in new software for backlight time control.

    I just want to add my voice to the calls for a fix for this bug. Worse, even though the backlight goes off sometimes even when playing a game, it comes on randomly after the keypad has locked, then again about a minute later, and then again after that! Crazy!

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • Nokia 6280 casing lost

    Hi,
    I have a slide Nokia 6280, one night by accident I lost the back of the casing that clicks around the silver border and has a little hole for the lens of the camera to see through, and holds the battery in. I don't like having my battery held in with tape and would like to replace the back casing of my phone. Would really appreciate any help or suggestions.
    Cheers

    Its, easy. Just go to nearest Nokia centre / shop. buy and ask them to replace the casing. Always buy the original one. Little expensive, but worth to buy.

  • Firmware upgrade for Nokia 6280

    I would like to know do we have firmware upgrade for Nokia 6280 as my present one is 3.65 and would like to upgrade it to 5.92 and I am in India
    Could you please help me out.

    updating to new firmware depends on product code which represents your region of purchasing, language pack and if it's branded or not .... so NOKIA releases firmwares and release it for every product code depending on mentioned points
    you can check for updates @ :
    http://mea.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update
    To find what the latest available device software is, you’ll need your device’s product code. The code is printed on the white label beneath the battery (e.g. CODE: 0520001).
    if your phone is branded with an operator, that means that you should go to the operator care center and ask them, not NOKIA
    some updates delay in some countries variant product code, as it requires more effort to add language pack to it like "example. China Japan Korea" or it needs the country to approve it due to its policy

  • I need restriction code For Nokia 6280

    Hello all,
    A friend got a Nokia 6280 as a gift from the UK, the phone is on 3 network. each time the phone is put on it asks for restriction code. I don't have the code and do not what code to use.
    Hoping to hear from you guys.

    Hi giggsonic
    This has been discussed many times on this forum including the sticky thread at the top of this board..
    http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/discussions/board/message?board.id=hardware&message.id=69
    Basically the restriction (sometimes called unlock) code would have to come from the original network.

  • Nokia 6280 and errors with iSync

    I have purchased a nokia 6280 and paired the phone to my mac. I am wanting to sync my address book and calendars from my mac to my phone.
    I can send individual cards from Address Book by selecting the card and then going to CARDS>>SEND THIS CARD. When I try to sync using iSync 2.3. I receive the message
    [Nokia 6280] Connection to the phone failed.
    Please make sure that your phone is turned on. If this error occurs again, please restart your phone.
    Device "Nokia 6280" synchronization failed
    My phone does not promtp me to accept a connection. Any suggestions?

    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.
