Nokia 6500 Slide dead after update

So, I updated to the latest firmware. Everything was fine until the phone restarted. Nokia Software update showed me that update last's for 15 minutes.. I waited. 15, 30.. And so, finally I gave up. 
It updated too long, and I decided to try if my phone starts, because it had to restart, but it did not. Phone just shut down, and nothing else. Before attempting the update, I was sure that battery was almost full. So there were no battery alerts in this update.- I've tried to take battery out and keep it like this for 5 minutes. It helped, phone buttons lights and screen started to work, but after 5 seconds it shuts down automatically. So I tried to do this more and more, but it did not help at all. 
After trying this battery out method for multiple times, phone went to very strange condition. I took the battery out, but screen and buttons were on. Like what the heck was that? Phone worked without battery on? 
Before this awful update fail, my nokia was in perfect condition. No marks of damage or anything else, it was a well cared phone, so I personally think that the problem was not caused by hardware.
What should I do next? I really need my nokia right now.
Phone is Nokia 6500s-1    _____Type: RM-240

You need to send it to your local Nokia Care Point. There is nothing else you can try yourself.

  • Nokia 6500 slide problem after updated to firmware...

    Hi, I have recently updated my nokia 6500 slide with the latest firmware version 9.40. I realise that after the upgrade, my phone encounters problem reading the SD memory card. It happens intermittently, sometimes you see, sometimes you don't. Initially I thought it was due to my memory card but after replacing it with a new one, problem still occurs.

    It looks like something on your system caused the updater to crash.
    Unfortunately your only option for that model is to take it to a nokia care point for repair. Tere's nothing else that you can do for it.

  • MY NOKIA N73 NOW DEAD AFTER UPDATING TO FIRMWARE 3...

    Hi ladies and gents
    looks like other folks have had thier lovely new shiny n73's turned into paperwieghts.
    followed the instructions to the letter, everything looked like it was working, the updater asked me to remove the battery and the charger for a few secs then press/hold the on button for a few secs...................then the updating process continues but then i get a message saying the update process failed and to try again which i did, only for the same thing to happen two more times!!!!??????
    just wondering what other ownwers experiences have been like perforrming the above firmware update. any advice would be appriciated.

    When the Software updater prompts you to do that, DO NOT unplug the phone or remove the battery at any stage. Simply check that the phone has no active connections running in the back round and click try again. The same thing happened with my N70-1 as I was using the phone as a modem at the same time that I was updating the software. I ;et the file download then when it prompted me to remove the battery I simply disconnected the modem and clicked try again and it updated with no issues at all.

  • Nokia 6500 Slide Software Update

    I purchased the Nokia 6500 Slide phone at Christmas. I was having a problem with receiving photos and telephoned Nokia. They asked me the version of software on the phone - think it's 3.8. I was told it needed updating to the 4.84 version. I was given the name of a local Nokia Engineer who would be able to do this for me. I have contacted the company and have been told that they would be happy to do this for me, but I would have to leave the phone with them for two days.
    Having just read some comments on a website it seems the latest version is in fact 6.60 but there appear to be conflicting views on the software.
    Can anyone please advise me whether I am safer sticking with the original software on the phone or having it updating to the 4.84 version - what are the advantages of the new software?
    Many thanks

    Hi there Hamraam, been reading this thread and if you continue to have the problems with your phone, I would suggest taking your phone to your local Nokia Care Centre for them to take a look at. That is strange that calendar entries and personalised settings are not being restored to your phone after the update.
    It is unlikely that Nokia will release another firmware update for the 6500 Slide. It was released in October 2006 or thereabouts, same as the 5610 XpressMusic, and with the release of newer models, the support cycle for the 6500 Slide has most likely ended with the release of the last update, 10.00, for unbranded product codes of the handset. 
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

  • Bricked nokia 6500 slide due to cable disconnectio...

    well i was updating my old nokia 6500 slide and my computer randomly disconnected the phone making my phone go corrupted, so now whenever i turn it on all i see is a blank screen with a backlight, ive looked all over the internet for a fix and sadly i could not find one, so now im hoping somebody on this site can help me fix it.

    blazekid your phone is bricked the only way to make it work again is to take it to Nokia care. Or remove your phone's battery and then re insert it after 5-10 minutes. If This doesn't work you have to do the First one.

  • Nokia 6500s Slide 'handsfree' query

    Hi
    I'd like some help with the problem I have with my Nokia 6500s Slide please. When using the phone on it's own without any bluetooth h/free connected, the speech is very clear on incoming and outgoing calls.
    Ok, I've had the phone for a week or so and up until now, it has done what I've asked of it but today I paired up my JABRA 250 BlueTooth and that went ok. The 6500 Slide is set to answer automatically after 5 seconds. I then got my wife to call me and the Jabra 250 automatically picked up the call but there was crackling in the headset and I also get this when I am changing options in the phone menu, the confirmation beep is crackly in the headset.
    I've used this JABRA 250 with a few other Nokia models including the 6230, 6300 and also a couple of Motorola models and all of them were fine - i.e. no crackling/interference in the headset.
    So I'm just wondering if this is only a problem with the phone when I connect a bluetooth handsfree device or, is it a problem with the Jabra 250?
    Regards
    brave_heart

    Hi radical24
    Thanks for your response.
    I've had the phone a couple of weeks or so and apart from the bluetooth headset issue, it works fine so I've not updated the firmware as yet.
    The firmware as shown by the phone is:
    v 08.30
    03-07-08
    RM-240
    Variant: 62.07
    With reference to the JABRA 250 BT device, it's right that with every other phone (which have been mostly Nokia), it has worked flawlessly but, it must be around three to four years old now, so it could be breaking down?
    I would like to update the firmware but I need to know that the latest firmware is ok and worth updating to and, before I would update, my son is bringing round his newer JABRA 250 for me to try and if that works fine, then my JABRA must be faulty.
    On the other hand, if shows the same problems, I may consider a firmware update.
    Is the Nokia PC Suite ok to use?
    Regards

  • Unlock my Nokia 6500 slide

    good evening,
    I bought a mobile (Nokia 6500 slide) with SFR in France. I missed six months and I wanted to unblock it but the code to disable the restriction, is not good and he told me that this is a problem that needs to be addressed at Nokia. So I would like to know steps to unblock it, thank you.
    Best regards

    I'm aware that SFR told you to contact Nokia, and they told you wrong.
    What you should be aware of is the fact that mobile network operators do not hesitate to lie to their clients to make themselves look clean and shift the blame for any wrongdoing to the manufacturer.
    If SFR got the restriction code wrong it is up to them to try again and get it right. SFR sending you to Nokia is not going to help because Nokia cannot generate the restriction code. These codes are the sole responsibility of the operators who enforce the SIM-lock, and the operators know this full well.
    Try SFR again, but don't let them send you back to Nokia. Be persistent. If the front-line customer service is unable to help then ask to have the matter escalated to someone with half a clue who might actually know what he or she is talking about.
    Also bear in mind that SFR are crooks as far as I'm concerned. They've tried everything in the book to extort money from me and succeeded on one occasion (charging me €7.50 for a PUK code given over the phone when no such code was given, I had the SIM-lock lifted from my phone more than 6 months after taking out the contract and it was supposed to be free).

  • Adapter for MD-1 Music Stand for Nokia 6500 Slide

    I currently Own a Nokia Music Stand MD-1 that has a Pop Port connection. I use it with my Nokia 6280 Phone. I am thinking of Upgrading my phone to a Nokia 6500 Slide and want to know if there is an adapter I can purchase so I can continue to use my MD-1 Music Stand with the new Phone as the connections are different on the base of the new phone. Has Nokia produced this or does anyone know where I can get one.

    I've came across with people that encountered such problem after upgrading to latest version of pcsuite(foreign language version) & were able to recover by running the Pcsuite cleaner & installing the English version. Why don't you give it a shot.

    how to format nokia 6500 slide ? my nokia 6500 slide cannot open open got sound nokia tones and after nokia logo hand it off by it self got battery ?
    can same one help me how 2 format nokia 6500slide ?

    It's not possible to format this model yourself. Your only options are "restore factory defaults" but the phone needs to be working to do this.
    If you are unable to use it then it needs to go to a nokia care point for repair.
