Nokia 6280 OS....Needed

Hi,
I bought Nokia 6280 10 days a go, and today just now while I was with a long phone call I tried to record the call "because it was so romantic"
But suddenly the phone after 2 minutes recording went off,and when I try to switch it on again it’s went off by him self as it lose his OS.
What should I do?
Could I install the operating system to it by my self?
And what kind of data cable needed and what are the steps for that?
The only thing I know that it was has S40 as an operating system.
Could I install higher than S40 or I have to stuck with it?
Kindly advice
Thank you in advance

How unfortunate, I'm sorry to hear (or read)!
The operating system is still there in ROM (Read-Only Memory), but apparently something else failed. Maybe the memory got full due to the recording, and the phone has problems handling the situation (even if it shouldn't).
If the 6280 isn't supported by Nokia Software Updater, http://www.nokia.com/softwareupdate then I think your only available option is to have a Nokia repair center take a look at your phone (in case they can figure out what happened to it, and revive it).

    You need to contact the provider as they are the only ones that can unlock phones. Try looking at the unlocking topic for all related info.
    Is that an N95 in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?!?
    Life's too important to take seriously.

  • 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.

  • 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
    -you can show appreciation to my posts if it helped or useful by pressing the green Kudo star beside my post that hepled

  • Nokia 6280 restriction code

    hi..i have a question regarding my nokia 6280. sometimes my phone will hang and after a while, the phone will be locked and asked for the restriction code..is it normal?and also sometimes even while i am texting, it will be locked and ask the restriction code..may i know what is the restriction code of the phone?i really dont know..please help..

    The restriction code is used to unlock as SIM-locked phone.
    It is very unusual that your phones asks for it randomly, and then decides it doesn't need one after all, you should try a software update - either do it yourself with Software Updater (see the Nokia web site) or have it done at a Nokia service point. This should iron out the bug that has crept into your phone.

  • Nokia 6280 delay in receiving msgs

    Hi i have recently purchased a nokia 6280 on 3 network and i am experiencing delays in receiving msgs, e.g i receive a msg at say 1pm but when infact tht msg was sent 2 or 3 hours earlier. I believe this is somethin to do with being connceted to GPRS so i have tried altering the setting to 'when needed' but on the phone display the 'G symbol in a box' is still active. Does any1 hav a solution to this problem? Id b pleased to hear ur comments, thank you

    Have a look at your clock settings. There is an option for setting the clock time zone for normal GMT, GMT+ & GMT-. Depending where you are, don't forget to allow for BST when you set it. Have a look and see which one the phone is set to, it maybe that your clock time is not set correctly to macth the GMT time zone.

  • Help Gps for my Nokia 6280 can it be done? I am ne...

    Hi can anyone help I wanted to know if i can get GPS on my nokia 6280,
    And is this free & how does it work do i pay everytime I use it, like making a call or texting?

    I was going to get a navigater for the car but would prefer it on the phone if possible...pls help explain it very simply. 
    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 Software Updater

    Hi, this is my fist topic, so sorry if I'll say something wrong. I read about 5.x firmware for Nokia 6280 phone, but I can't find this firmware on the update page. My phone has firmware version 3.40. Tnk's Andrea

    Hi,
    I have 5.92 on my phone. You'll need to take it to a nokia centre to get upgraded, until they can do it with the updater program that is. Presumably that won't be too long, the 6270 is listed now.
    Incidentally, 5.92 seems a lot better than the other firmware. Though is by no means perfect, mine has been fine for a while and now refuses to turn on. Luckily, I'm geting a new contract starting tomorrow so get a new phone.

  • Ulocking the nokia 6280?

    My girlfriend just bought me a nokia 6280 on the internet but it is locked to 3 network & as im a vodafone costomer its not much good to me dose anyone no of anywhere i can get a ulock code from?

    hi everyone, its been a while since I last posted here, but looking at all your responses as nice as everyone is i'm still in the same situation.
    Things however did slightly move on. Got the security code sorted as carphone warehouse did that for free surprisingly and they reset it to 12345 so that was good, then it still asked for the restriction code which t-mobile charged us £15 for. Got the pin used it twice which is the max time it says you can do otherwise your phone will be locked forever and we got code error. It said in the letter they sent with the code if it says code error to call a number 01717 bla ba and guess what the line was dead.
    SO £15 down and still with the subsidy pin they claimed we needed did not work!
    Has it come to the point where no one knows how to unlock this t-mobile handset? Pls someone help me its driving me crazy. Was only trying to the fiance a good turn and its all back fired! Thanks

    Hi. My pc wont take the pc suite so all I do is plug the phone in with the supplied data cable, set the fone to data transfer mode, and the fone shows on the pc as "G" drive. It could also be D,E, F and etc, it depends on what other devices you have on the pc. Once you do this you can drag and drop either way, music pics whatever. Hope this is of help.

  • 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.

  • A short movie I made with NOKIA 6280 (+edit)

    Although I'm devoted to my HV20, this is a short video which i made for a course, in which i dropped my NOKIA 6280 from the roof (5th floor), and made it like someone is gonna jump with the cell-phone.

    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:

    which costs $25.

    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.
