Nokia 6280 screen

I have just got a new nokia 6280...which I love by the way! Just got 1 problem, if you leave it for a few minutes the screen goes black. i.e it shows the data time etc in the white strip for a few mins then goes all black.
I want to be able to see the phone status...e.g if i have any messages without opening the phone...Does this make sense!!??

Go to Menu>Settings>Display>Sleep mode and select it off. This will keep the white strip showing.

  • Nokia 6280 display issue!!! Pls help!!

    Hi there everyone!
    I live in United States and i use nokia 6280 for almost 1 year, but recently my phone display turn black whenever I slide it up/down. and i can't make a call with black screen as my display, and i also think that this is a strange situation that i've never seem. So is there anyone in here have any suggestion or any advices for me to fix this problem? Thanks for your regard!!

    well i tried to it already, like you said switch it off for 15 mins, but it still won't work. about the damaged cable i guess that might be a problem, but how come it damaged though. don't get how NOKIA works NOW!! though, if the cable damaged it should be black screen all the time rite? but mine sometimes it disappears sometimes it appears.Message Edited by janzz on 21-Jun-200702:49 PM

  • Nokia 6280 wont pair or isync

    Ok I am trying to set up my new nokia 6280 with bluetooth and isync. When I go to bluetooth and select "Set up new device..." It says looking for device, find it then goes to "Gathering infomation about this phone.." and just hangs there.
    Normaly I would then get prompted on screen with a pair code and asked to put it into my mobile but it never gets that far.
    Anyone got any ideas?
    I'm running isync 2.2 the mobile is RM v3.65 the latest from Nokia. I should accouding to the isync page be able to do calendar and address book with the phone as I have been about to with my Nokia 6230 for over a year now.
    Any help would be great!
    Thank you in advance!

    PS. I have also tryed to pair the computer from the phone and it find the mac but then says passcode but I have not set one up? HELP!

    Okay got the answer. It turns out it's the bluetooth adapter on your mac that's causing the problem. I had a dodgy USB bluetooth dongle from Indonesia that worked fine with my old Nokia 6600 but didn't work at all with the 6280.
    But now I've plugged in a different model bluetooth dongle it works. I found the reasoning behind it here from this discussion here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=454430&tstart=15
    Apparently it's some sort of standards conflict.
    Good luck getting yours to work Raven!

  • Nokia 6280 crashed!!!!

    I've been reading many of the problems associated with this mobile today in the hope of finding some help with the problem i have just encounted with my 6280 today.
    My partner and i purchased 2 Nokia 6280's from Dialaphone and recieved them on saturday 25/03/06. Today sunday, i was browsing on Planet 3 and decided to download a video file to my mobile, having completed the download my mobile switched itself off!!
    I've tried switching it back on but all i get is approximately 1 sec of the Nokia logo screen then the screen looks like a snow storm and goes blank, there's still a faint light on the screen with the keys lit but after 2-3 secs the mobile switches completely off. The mobile had just been charged so the problem isn't the battery, all was fine until downloading this video file off Planet 3.
    If any of you guys on here could offer any suggestions as to the cause of the problem i'd be grateful.

    I had 6280 on Three network since January this year, and it worked fine for a few month although there were a few problems which I thought were minor. The real problems started when it kept crashing, freezing and switching itself off! It happened mostly when I was:
    1. listening to music or radio
    2. switching between profiles
    3. logging onto planet 3 etc.
    I finally dicided to act on this, and called Three, and they immediately said it was a software problem and would replace the phone, which they did. This happened in June. A new phone came with some improvements, and this was fine for a few weeks. Then, the same problems again. I was so annoyed, and called Three again. They then said they'll have to repair it and would credit my account with £10 for my inconvenience, which was quite nice of them I suppose. The phone came back repaired and I was very happy with it, till NOW! It started doing this same thing again! It just turns itself off even when on full battery. When this sort of things happen, the batter seems to lose its life, and although fully charged in the morning, by evening it'd be flat because I've had to keep turning it back on! It has been collected by Three for yet another repair, and we shall see what happens. The phone's firmware was v 03.70!
    Very frustrated...

  • Nokia 6280 - am contemplating getting one, should ...

    Ok so I went through nokia 6111's in 3 months at the beginning of the year, and ended up with a Samsung for the remainder of my contract. I am now able to upgrade again in 3 weeks time, and am contemplating getting the Nokia 6280. The man at O2 I spoke to said that he hasnt heard of many problems with them recently, but I keep seeing the odd post about them pop up on here.
    Are the majority of them behaving now or should I avoid it?
    I want a smallish phone, preferably one that is a flip or slide phone (as it lives in my pocket and I dont want to keep pressing buttons) I love Nokia phones, but dont want to be let down again like I was last time.
    Any advice would be gratefully received.

    My 6111's kept switching themselves off, or the screen would die, or it would freeze up and reset (one never even made it much further than the box because it was broken when I received it)
    I ended up with a samsung because 02 refused to send me any more nokias due to the problems I was having. The D600 I have is ok, but there are just little things about it I dont like - really stupid things, but ones that, when a Nokia works they have them. For example, theres not apostrophe when typing txts, you cant write "weren't" because the hyphon doesnt exist. It doesnt put a capital letter automatically after a full stop, which again the nokias do, and the message capacity of it is tiny.
    Anyway Ive gone off topic. I want a phone that I can take decent pics with (the samsung has a really good camera on it) one that has bluetooth, one that I can read my email on (I have a yahoo account, so as its 02 I can check my email) easily and quickly, and bascially one that wont keep switching itself off or dying on me!
    Marie
    Just a quick note, my N80 doesn't put a caps after full stops. You have to change to it.
    Is that an N95 in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?!?
    Life's too important to take seriously.
    Nokias I've owned 3210, 3310, 6100, 7650, 6600, 6680, 6630, N80, N95

  • Changing the lcd-lens on nokia 6280

    I have a nokia 6280 and the lcd screen's Lens are broken (cracks all over the it!)
    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.

  • 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

  • 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 5800 [ Screen and phone problems]

    I got a problem with my nokia 5800 screen,
    sometimes when my brightness is bellow 80% 2-3 flikering lines apear wherever i am ( home screen, watching a video, browser,call someone etc.)
    when brightness is at 80%  its normal always( maybe of the high brightness i may not see the lines)
    however this is annoying and i want to know if i can do anything about it !
    on top of that my phones shuts down suddenly on its own  randomly!
    the phone is functioning well running app without any problem and watching videos !
    skype

     The 5800 is getting on in years now so it's definitely a hardware issue your facing. Your best bet is to visit a Nokia Care Point and see if it's worth the cost of repair otherwise you'd be better off getting a new phone.

  • 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.
