Those .inf files you are talking about are modem drivers only.
You install them if you don't have PC Suite or Ovi Suite installed and you still want to use your phone as a modem for your computer.
To me your problem sounds more like a bluetooth stack incompatibility in your PC.
You have an Asus, so I guess you are running on Toshiba bluetooth.

Nokia 6300 Bluetooth driver for Windows 7

Hey Guys,
Since installing Windows 7 Professional, 32 bit, on my ASUS laptop, it won't let me connect to my Nokia 6300 via bluetooth anymore. It was fine with Vista. I've installed PC Suite - that still connects fine.
However when I go to connect via bluetooth through windows (so I can transfer songs through windows media player, which I have to do for some of them since which won't transfer through Nokia Music Manager), it says driver cannot be found. It then tries to find it to no avail.
I tried going here http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/nokia-6300/software but I don't know how to install the drivers. Where do I save them to? They're inf files and just open up with notepad.
I tried saving them to C:\Windows\inf but it didn't work. When I try to connect it just tries to find the driver manually and won't give me an option to point to that file, only the directory. But still doesn't pick it up and will say that there isn't the right driver.
Any help?

Nokia 6300 Bluetooth Passcode

Hello, I just bought Nokia 6300 & trying to pair my exisint Bluetooth & it's asking passcode, Any idea how to find passcode? My previous phone passcode was 0000. Please let me know if you have any idea how to find passcode. Thanks

...actually the pass code your mobile is asking is for the bluetooth that you are trying to pair with your mobile e.g. bluetooth headset…
...read your bluetooth device manual and I’m very sure that the pass code is written there…Message Edited by joshua_sx1 on 18-Sep-200705:45 AM

Nokia 6300 Bluetooth Problem?

Hello Everyone,
I Recently bought my beautiful Nokia6300.
From my previous phone (6310i)I have the Cark112 Bluetooth Carkit. But when I try to make a bluetooth phonecall with my 6300 through this carkit, my correspondent can understand me only for one minute, after that there's a lot of annoying noise and he cannot understand my clearly... so I have to stop the call. I tried to call with the 6310i again, and there was no problem, everything worked fine...
Does anyone knows where the problem could be? Is this carkit too old? Is the bluetooth in new phones different from the older 6310i phones? Maybe the problem is the nokia6300, I really would like to solve this annoying problem, cause I would like to call handsfree in a proper way..
Hope anyone can help.
Davy

I have similar problem - the other party hear noise and/or sound is distorted, while I can hear fine.
Do you have any follow-ups?

Nokia 6300 Bluetooth - useless?

Just got a 6300, as did a friend of mine. Even sat next to each other neither phone will detect the other.
Friends with different makes of phone can see mine, but I can't see theirs.
Is this a known problem?

Nope, not that I know about. Unless the other bluetooth device is not active & not hidden(should be shown to all) you'll be able to see it!
Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!

Nokia 6300 bluetooth dongle prob??

i can recieve images from the bluetooth dongle on my pc but it wont let me download music. it gets to bout 15% then says "sending failed" any ideas please???

if you use that method, the music arrives at an "INBOX" in your phone and there is a liit to the file size.
Install PC Suite and use that, then you canmove files directly to right folder in your phone and even use Music Manager to manage your music between phone and PC

Nokia 6300 - Bluetooth issue in Mazda re: Music Fi...

Whenever I turn on the car engine, the phone does a search on loop for my non-existent music files. This drains the phone battery and makes it impossible to use the phone.
Can anyone help with a solution on how to fix this please?

Hi foxystoat,
Welcome to the Nokia forum.
Reset your phone's settings with *#7780# and default security code 12345 (unless you have changed this code yourself). This should stop the search for music files.
If the above doesn't fix it, try a software update with Nokia Suite or reinstall the current software. You can do this by clicking on the green arrow in Nokia Suite.
As a last resort you can try a hard reset. In combination with the software update this should definitely solve the problem. Do make a back up with Nokia Suite first though, as the device will be cleared completely. Also make sure that when you make the back up, you don't tick the Settings box, as this will backup the bug that's causing the issue in the first place.
Let me know how you get on!

Nokia 6300 connection to MB bluetooth SAP unit; mi...

Just brought a Bluetooth SAP unit for my MB - and a NOkia 6300 to enable connection; but I cannot make them connect...There is really no information to get out of the Nokia Manual (thanks for nothing...) but in the MB manual it gives information concerning the setup; however it tells me to go to "connectivity", "Bluetooth", "paired options" and next step should be to select "MB telephone" - but the latter never appears as an option - in fact nothing appears as an option at that point....Can anyone help...??
Thanks in advance,
Best regards

This is how I add a BT device to my 6300.
setting -> connectivity -> bluetooth
1) Bluetooth on 6300 and the other device is ON/discover mode.
2) 6300: Select paired devices, go to options, select 'Pair new device'; press 'New' and your 6300 BT will search for BT enabled devices around.
3) It will display the list of Bluetooth devices it found. Highlight your device then click 'Pair'. Note that it may ask for passcode. It just means 6300 will have to send a number key and the other BT device must confirm the same number key.

Nokia 6300 + vista+ bluetooth

when i first connected my nokia 6300 to my lenovo3000N100 running windows vista basic bundled by the vendor, via bluetooth, it worked, and i managed to download a few grateful dead songs to my phone.
but after that the communication between these two devices via bluetooth has stopped and as soon as i use the nokia pc suite to connect to the nokia6300 via bluetooth a message appears informing that says 'cannot use the connectio n type' etc.
now jerry garcia is dead and nokia,lenovo and microsoft are supposedly world class brands.
so what do i do to make my phone connect to the notebook.

It already officially supports Vista.

Nokia 6300 & Alpine Bluetooth Module

Hi all,
I have the Nokia 6300 and just got a new alpine headunit with the bluetooth module for my car.
i've noticed that when the devices pair rather than getting an icon of a car i get a headphone icon on the phone - the music player automatically then starts playing the mp3's on the phone regardless of the source i have chosen on the headunit.
does anyone know how to switch this off as i don't want the phone playing music to itself while sat in my pocket - seems like a waste of battery..
any help is appreciated.
thanks
Craig

I have a 6500 slide and a Motorola Bluetooth in the car. Same problem, when I pair them up, the music player automatically goes on. It's frustrating to turn it off everytime I get in the car.
Is this a software problem or is there a way to make the default "off" rather than "on"?

Problem With Nokia 6300 USB DATA CABLE OPTION Not ...

Hi, I have a Nokia 6300 v.5.00. My problem is when
I connect my phone using a mini usb cable to the pc, USB Data Cable option on my phone is not highlighted, so I can't use the pc suite mode functions etc. I tried 3 different computers with Windows XP SP3 and 3 different good quality mini usb cables but still to no avail. The options like data mode, nokia pc suite mode still doesn't seem to appear. I also tried different USB slots in these 3 computers still no luck. Can anybody tell me what's the problem? Is there something wrong with IC on my phone or something? What drivers do I need? This is my first time using the mini pop port on THIS phone, I've been using bluetooth to transfer files but it's so slow. Please help

in your pc after that try to search & find the Nokia USB connectivity cable driver v6.8.2 in the web if u get it. Then uninstall the usb connectivity cable driver v7.0.2 in the CONTROL PANEL ADD/REMOVE after that install the "usb connectivity cable driver v6.8.2 in ur PC then try to plug in your Nokia 6300 it will install automatically ur phone. PRESTO your unit can be now Recognized of your PC.
THAT's ALL FOLKS!!!

Contacts Back Up Nokia 6300 on PC Suite

I am having problems with PC Suite, I don't seem to be alone! I have had a look through some of the previous posts but can't get the following sorted.
I have made a back up of my contacts etc via PC Suite from my Nokia 6300. The problem is viewing the contacts via the file manager. It only shows 3 of the contacts out of over 100. All are saved to the phone not the SIM. I am therefore not able to confirm the back up is accurate, or edit any of the contacts on my PC. The three that are showing I added to this new phone the others are copied to the phone from SIM when I put it in the new phone but as far as I can see they are all stored on the phone in exactly the same way!
It seems to be a bit of a tempramental programme, I didn't have this problem with my Motorola using a different programme.
I am using Window XP SP2, version 6.83.14.1 of PC Suite and have tried conecting via a cable and bluetooth.

No you are not alone... In order to update the firmware to 7.118, I backed up my 6300 using PC Suite and now I cannot anymore restore all of its contents.
The restoration sequencially restores SMS, contacts, and phone settings. In my case the process stops with an error in the middle of my contacts, without resuming execution for the next contact or the phone settings. The failing contact is always the same. This contact has the particularity to have 2 address lines, so it might be that this special case is not supported by the restoration program... this is just speculation from my side, it can be anything else of course.
Anyway the consequence is that I have now half of my contacts and all of the phone settings left behind in the nbu file.
Appreciated the solution mentioned to use Outlook, but this won't save my settings, nor will save specificities of my contacts that are not compatible with Outlook.
Personally I am not sure this is related to this particular phone model (6300), but must be an issue of PC Suite itself (either the backup or the restore program).
Generally speaking backup and restoration should be the most robust (same level of reliability as the OS itself), otherwise we cannot count on them to execute other programs. Thus they must be simple, like copying files and must mainly rely on the OS. In this funny case, running the phone updater has been safer than the safety measures taken!

Nokia 6300 Software v. 5.0 issue

Hello, I own a Nokia 6300. After update to v.5.0, I cannot add details to contacts. "Operation unsuccsefull" is the message that appears when trying to do this. Adding new contacts, works fine.
If anyone can help me, I will appreciate.
Thanks.

I don't have a 6300 so am unable to help you with the first part of your query, but as to the 2nd part it is NOT possible to go backwards in terms of versions of firmware, and doing so could possibly damage your phone and is therefore NOT recommended.

Edward
