Nokia 6300 contact

ever time i wanna add any details to any contact such as home no. or any other details it is failed and tell me operation failed
is there is solution
plz any help

try resetting your phone to factory settings through the option in the phone menu. remember to back up all your important data first
failing that, try reinstalling your current software version through nokia software update. if that still doesn't resolve the problem, take your phone to your nearest Nokia care centre for them to take a closer look at.

Nokia 6300 Contacts

OK i know this is going to sound like a really stupid question but is there a way to transfer all the contacts from the 6300 to another phone via Bluetooth? With my old Sony Ericsson you could select all contacts and send via Bluetooth to another phone (that's how i transferred them to the 6300).
In a similar vein is there a way to do it on the Nokia 6151?
Thanks

The 6300 should have the facility in contacts/options to "mark all" - this facility is often used when transfering between phone memory and SIM card and vice versa.
I've never tried to use this feature to bulk-transfer via bluetooth, so I don't know if it will work, but give it a try!

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, iSync, and Contact Photos-

Thanks to the following links, I was able to get my new Nokia 6300 to successfully sync with my Mac’s Address Book via iSync:
http://klauskjeldsen.dk/2007/06/08/free-nokia-6300-isync-plugin/
http://nokia6300.net/8/new-version-of-the-nokia-6300-isync-plugin
http://brent.kearneys.ca/technology/2007/how-to-sync-a-nokia-6300-on-osx/
http://kaspers.freeflux.net/blog/archive/2007/04/13/how-to-isync-a-nokia-6300.html
Unfortunately, two things didn’t sync up: Birthdays and Contact Photos. After politely asking people if there was any way to get these to work (especially photos, as it’s nice to see someone’s picture pop up on the phone for faster recognition before you unceremoniously reject them) I tried to tackle this one on my own. I was able to dig around in the plist files of the Nokia N93 and glean the few lines that make both of these details available to the Nokia 6300 plugin.
Before we begin however, I’ve noticed some problems that can occur with Photo syncing. PLEASE READ THIS THOROUGHLY before continuing: it’ll save some head-banging and frustration later.
Failing to follow the following guidelines will result in a completely failed sync. Should this happen, I simply deleted all of my contacts on the phone (phone memory, not SIM card), tried to determine the problem, and tried again.
Also, note that if you do end up deleting all of the contacts on your phone, you’ll also lose your 1-touch dialing and the entries in your caller groups (but not the groups themselves).
Here we go:
Do not use .GIF files — JPG only! (I didn’t test PNG)
You cannot drag-and-drop from a web-page directly onto a contact. Although this works for Address Book in that you’ll see the ‘image edit’ window pop-open, and you can save your contact, when it comes to iSync your entire sync will fail. If you want to use someone’s image (from Facebook, for example) simply drag the photo you want from the web-page onto your desktop, and then drag the photo from your desktop onto the Address Book entry’s ‘contact photo’ area. You’re then free to delete the image from your desktop.
You cannot sync with a ’smart group’ that you created within Address Book. This has more to do with iSync than the new plugin, but it’s a pain nonetheless. Physical groups only!
When a sync fails, you are not told what failed, or why it failed. iSync detailed logs are useless too, stating only:
5:28:24 PM Error [Nokia 6300] An unexpected error occured.
5:28:24 PM Error Device "Nokia 6300" synchronization failed
Fun! What I did was create a ‘temp’ group, set iSync to sync with that folder only for contacts, and then slowly add contacts into that temp group until a failure occurred so that I knew what the offending entry was.
The plugin that I’ve created is essentially just the one from the site listed above, but with some additional properties put into the PhoneContuit.plist and SyncEngine.plist files.
As with everyone else, I take no responsibility if this completely fcks up your phone or Address Book, but please do backup both your Address Book (File -> Back Up Address Book…) and your phone’s contacts (I typically just copy everything to SIM). I can say that this has worked fine for me for a day now, with a fair bit of testing. After I cleaned up my offending image-entries, it’s been great.
To install: Quit iSync, download the following zip file, and drag-and-drop the plugin into your system using the shortcut, and sync away.

Moving contacts from nokia 6300 to Iphone 4

hi,
sorry if I'm making a new discussion uneccessarily but I can't find an adequate solution on the internet at the moment, so any advice would be much appreciated. I'm trying to move my contacts from my nokia 6300 to my iphone 4. I'm running a pc on windows xp with the latest Itunes (11.1.3), Iphone has latest os.
I have used the nokia pc suite to 'syncronise' my contacts to my default windows address book so they are on my computer but I'm stuck on the second step from computer to Iphone. I was planning to plug in my Iphone and sync my contacts across by some button on under the 'info' tab in Itunes.. but itunes says 'your contacts are being synced with your Iphone over the air from Icloud. over-the-air settings can be changed on your Iphone'. my problem is that i am not using The Icloud, I've triple in my settings.
I was using this video on youtube for help but got stuck 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAuEeOGduHk' but got stuck at 0:45
any solutions for my specific problem or any completely different way would be more than helpful.
thanks

Ok I managed it, so in case anyone else has a similar problem and sees this, here are the steps.
1. In your Contacts section of the Nokia, Options>Mark>Mark All.
2. Options>Manage>Phone to Memory Card.
3. Now your memory card has your contacts in .vcf format.
4. Connect via data cable to Macbook.
5. Once the icon shows up (Takes 10-15 secs), open it and under Other, see the folder Contacts.
6. Copy to desktop (or wherever)
7. Disconnect data cable.
8. Import into Address Book (Figure out how you wanna handle duplicates...merge, use old or use new) I chose Use New
9. Plug in the Iphone, sync through Itunes.
10. Done!

Nokia 6300 and PC Sutie not restoring Contacts HEL...

Hi all im not sure if anyone else has the same problem but for some reason every time i try to restore a backup from my Nokia 6300 that I have just made it doesn’t seam to full work.. Everything else will restore except my contacts. If I restore my contacts I get a error msg saying Connection to the phone was lost. Reconnect your phone and restart the restoration..
Yet when I restore my contacts from a old 6230i phone I backed up 3months ago it seams fine..
Using Windows XP SP2
Nokia 6.83..14.1
Is there any other way I can backup my contacts…
Also I have noticed some of my applications have now been moved into a different folder on my memory card.

Ok, so I reinstalled the software, and so far it seems to be working 90% better. I can add contacts, and they seem to store on the computer AND phone better. One contact would not send, had to delete it and recreate for it to work, but was able to get it to the phone.
So I won't delete the original post, maybe someone else will have similar problems. Hopefully I won't be back to edit this response once I get to 10 or 15 numbers.

Nokia 6300 reboots while syncing contacts

Hello,
At first let me make 3 points clear:
- I use the last version of my phone firmware
- I use the last version of PC Suite
- Syncing was perfectly working until then.
This is what happens now:
I have 305 contacts in Outlook, which used to sync seemlessly with my Nokia 6300... until recently. Since 2 days ago, the sync triggers a phone re-init at the 224th contact. I've tried several times and this is always where the sync process fails. All calendar and notes sync flawlessly, and I could do a phone backup.
Any idea as to what I can do?

I had a similar problem when I first tried to use PC Suite after upgrading to a 6300. The phone was switching off after I got to 119 of my 162 contacts.
The answer seems to be that you need to 'tidy up' any contact information you transferred from another phone or have updated. Its a bit laboroius but it worked for me.
Edit each of the contacts deleting those that contain no information and remove any spurious characters or symbols that may have appeared.
I did this and can now get PC suite to read all my contacts.

Nokia 6300 - Downloading contacts to In-Car Kenwoo...

I have recently purchased a new vehicle that has a Kenwood entertainment system with integrated bluetooth. The extremely 'useful' manual states that my Nokia 6300's contacts directory can be downloaded to the InCar system by following the cellphone instructions.
However, there is no mention of how to perform a download within the 6300 instruction manual.
Has anybody idea how this can be solved?
Thanks in advance for your assistance...

Nokia 6300 - only 50 contacts allowed per created ...

Hi,
I am using a Nokia 6300 phone (SW version 7.00), with the following applications:
Nokia Communication Center - version 2.0;
Nokia PC Suite - version 7.1.18.0.
I would appreciate if you would increase the number of allowed contacts per created group from 50 to at least 250.
I find it difficult to use this feature due to its limitation.
This issue was found when tried to add 89 contacts into a group using Nokia PC Suite (the phone was connected to my PC using Bluetooth) and only the first 50 were added.
Thank you very much,
Adrian

Nokia 6300 Text Message Options

I own a Nokia 6300 which was Made in Hungary. It came with firmware revision version 5.00.
I only see 6 options in my Text Message Settings and nothing seems to resolve it. There's supposed to be 10 options. I contacted Nokia care centre and they suggested that I update the software which I did but to no avail.
I purchased my phone SIM free and completely unlocked. No provider touched my phone.
1. Message Centres
2. Msg. Centres in use
3. E-mail Msg. Centres
4. E-mail Centres in use (this option is
greyed out)
5. Use Packet Data
6. Character support
What should be there is:
1 delivery reports
2 message centres
3 msg centre in use
4 e-mail msg. centres
5 e-mail centre in use (greyed)
6 message validity
7 messages sent via
8 use packet data
9 character support
10 rep. via same centre
'Delivery reports, Message Validity, Rep. via same centre and messages sent via' are all missing from mine.
I have reseted my phone on several occasions but it makes no difference in that department. I updated it to 5.50 and still no difference. I'm out of ideas. Can anybody out there suggest anything to me that I haven't already tried ?
Thank you all.

Hello,
I've got the solution!!!
Okay - I spoke to Nokia - who advised me to speak to my SIM card provider (Orange). Orange said - 'This functionality is not supported by Orange on the 6300'.
But there is a way around this.
Borrow one of friends SIM cards (preferably a Vodafone) - insert the card, switch on the phone then go to the messaging menu:
Message Settings > Text Messages > Delivery Reports (set this to yes).
Then switch off the phone, stick your own SIM card back in the phone and switch it on.
If you now go back to the same menu - you will see that, there is no option to set Delivery Reports. However, when you now send a message - it will now indicate when a message is delivered.... JOB DONE :-)

Nokia 6300 - Data Recovery - Please Help !!!

HI....
I had been using the Nokia 6300 for the past 10 months and had encounter no problem at all. But do not know why, suddenly 2 days ago, the phone just suddenly freezed. I tried to turn off and turn on the phone, but I just can't enter into the menu. when the phone is turn on, only see the 'Nokia' wording, then the whole screen is just white and can only see the battery logo. It can't be turn off, need to remove the battery. I haven't back-up my contacts and smses yet, when this happen. Would like to know if anyone can help. I am really desperate now. All the contacts and smses are very important. Is there any way or method, that I can use, so that I can save the datas?
Thank you.

If the phone won't start up, all you can do is take it to a service centre for repair. If your phone is under warranty, then damage caused by something going wrong in software updater is covered as a free repair.

Nokia 6300 Broken Screen (can't see a thing) help ...

Hi guys.
I've got a Nokia 6300 and the screen broke the other day and I'm unable to see a thing. I can still use the phone though (blindly of course)
I'd like to transfer my numbers from my phone to my sim and to be able to do this without being to see.
So if someone could help me with shortcuts? I think I can press the menu key, then some numbers (am i right?) rather than up down etc etc.
Any help would be really really appreciated as i'm stuffed without a phone at the moment!
Thanks so much!
Charlie

once in main menu, i cant just go to any sub menu by pressing a number key, i have to use directional pad to go to CONTACTS, in there, press UP, (go to the last selection)it's COPY CONTACTS, an other UP, it's MOVE CONTACTS,
choose either one, once in, you have two option, first: FROM PHONE TO SIM, 2nd: FROM SIM TO PHONE, if u select the first one, it asks : move contacts? press center to answer YES, and wait, it may takes a while, i did with 60 contacts, in about 20 seconds.
by default, in grid mode, the upper center icon is the contacts.

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.

Nokia 6300 firmware wishlist

Hello!
Let's give our suggestions for improving the Nokia 6300's firmware. Post feature requests, bugs and ergonomy issues.
Contact list:
* All the fields of a contact should be searchable (name, surname, phone number etc...)
* The user should be able to hide groups in the contact list, as they are disturbing; in some cases, groups are only used to assign a specific ringtone to its contacts.
* The change of a contact's name should reflect on the Call log and Inbox. Currently, the names displayed in the Inbox and Call log will remain the same, even after a contact's name has been changed in the contact list.

1. when i try to play video clip (@176x144 resolution) on my nokia 6300 in full screen mode there are two white bars on the left & right side of the screen. Means the video doesn't fit to the screen. so please try to remove this problem on the next firmware update.
2. please add brightness control in the next update.
3. please add music player & radio themes.
4. please add full screen web browser in the next update like nokia 5220.
5. please add landscape mode and manual iso settings in the camera.
6. remove maximum 1 mb jar size limitation.
7. increase the video recording quality because its really poor & its a shame for a two mega pixel camera.
8. increase the volume in the music player.
9. add visualization in the music player.
10. Add proxy address and proxy port in the access point settings for opera mini.
