  • Nokia 6500 Slide SIlent mode makes noises

    I have a Nokia 6500 Slide, and whenever I put it onto silent mode, it still makes a noise (i.e a standard message tone) to inform me that I have received a message/call. I go to profiles and select everything to OFF, but it still continues to do this.
    Is there anything I can do to fix this?
    Thanks in advance

    Try typing *#7780* and default code 12345. Backup anything you want to keep, usually restoring settings doesn't delete anything, but better to be safe than sorry!
    What might have happened is you had put your phone on silent mode, and then later on changed the ringtone whilst still on silent mode.

  • 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).

  • Nokia 6500 slide..Bugs and problems..

    Just read some posts regarding the nokia 6500 and it seems i too am not alone with the problems on this model..
    I have had nothing but problems with this phone and keeps freezing, cuts out whilst in the middle of a call and generally is the most problem ridden phone nokia must have ever produced.
    I cant believe that a trusted company the size of nokia would allow a product like this to be released in the uk market.
    I do also understand that nokia now have stiff competition from other manafacturers. And have to fight for the share of the market place. But releasing inferior phones that obviously havent passed the research stage Is hardly the way to keep the customers that they have..
    I cant wait till my phone is repaired and put for sale on E bay..Anyone recommend a non nokia alternative...
    Anyone considering a phone has to avoid a nokia 6500 slide.

    From what you have read, same situation with the 6500 Classic?
    I was going to get that one?
    Thnx

  • 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.

    I'v got te same problem with my 6500 Slide, is there a button combination that we have to press
    to hard reset the 6500 Slide?!
    How does the 6500 slide hard reset?
    That's simple.
    All you have to do is:
    From MENU goto SETTINGS, When there scroll down and select 'Restore Factory Setting'.
    There are two options in there:
    "Restore Settings only"
    and
    "Restore all"
    Select "Restore All"
    When done the phone will delete every thing on the Phone memory(C:\)(contacts,picture,messages etc)
    and also restore phone to its original settings and will restart.
    This proceedure is mostly common on S40 phone.
    Hope this explain and solve the problem.

  • 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

  • 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
    Casselle

    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!

  • How to format nokia 6500 slide ?

    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.
    Care points/service centres and repair info:
    UK • Europe • Asia-Pacific • USA •
    Canada • Middle East and Africa
    Elsewhere: Click here, select your country, go to the support section, then select repair.
