Nokia 6555

Two questions: (1) How do you edit the current Address Book on this phone to indicate which phone number is attached to a name (i.e., Mobile or Office, etc.)? The AT&T store transferred my address book from my old phone without this indication--now I have no idea which numbers are for cell phones and which are home phones--very odd; (2) Can you only set one alarm? I actually used my old phone as an alarm clock (to wake my daughter, to call my mom to take her medications, etc.), but it appears that this phone will only accept one alarm at a time. Thanks for any help you can give me.

You do know you can download the Nokia PC Suite software for FREE?
Transferring a contact list from an old phone to a new phone is useful only temporarily.
I found that it is easier to just re-input your contact list.
And that is much easier if you get the Nokia PC Suite & do it in that software on your computer (easier than trying to re-input all of that information on your phone's keypad).
I bought the Nokia CA-101 USB cable ($29.99) to connect my Nokia 6555 to my PC (no Bluetooth on my PC).
If you have to input a lot of contact names, it DOES drain the battery on the Nokia 6555. You may want to consider also plugging the phone into the charger to do this so you do not deplete the battery before you are done inputting.

  • Nokia 6555's external screen turns on alone?

    Hi,
    I've just bought a nokia 6555 (and hope I won't regret it!) and something seems weird: sometimes, without touching the phone, the external screen with the analogic watch turns on alone...
    Do you know what could make that happen?
    Just hope that there won't be any battery problem, like it seems to be for most people who owned a nokia 6555.... :s
     Thanks
     >Sorry if I've made some mistakes, I'm French...

    So I went to an apple store today, and explained them my problem. We tried a new "mini-dvi to vga" adapter but still the external screen was green!! Also, when using my adapter that I supposed was broken on another PB the output singal was perfect! So as it turns out, it's my PB thats not working properly..
    The guys at the store said it must be somthing with the motherboard.. I just don't think I can miss my PB for more than a few days!! :P

  • Contact phone list in Nokia 6555

    I just upgraded my 2 LG1400 phones that I had for 3 years to 2 Nokia 6555s & am suppossed to receive them tomorrow by FedEX.
    In the LG1400, you had an option of keeping your Contact phone list either on the Sim card or in the phone itself.
    I preferred keeping them only in the phone because it allowed you to list several phone numbers for each contact.
    However, since it was not saved on the Sim card, all of your contacts were lost if you ever had to remove your Sim card for whatever reason (which returned the phone to its inital state each time).
    Saving the list to the Sim card was much safer, but it made you enter a different contact for each phone number of a particular contact. i.e.- if 1 contact had 3 phone numbers, it required 3 separate entries.
    QUESTIONs are: Does the Nokia 6555 work the same?
    Which method have you found works best for you?

    UPDATE:
    This morning (Thursday 5-8-08), I went to the local AT&T Mobility store.
    They said they COULD transfer my contact list from my old LG1400 to my new Nokia 6555 using a cable they had that would connect both phones together.
    But, before she went to the back to get the cable, she said she would try something even more simple.
    She took the SIM card out of my old LG1400 & put it in my new Nokia 6555.
    LO & BEHOLD, it accepted it!!!!!!
    Then she merely copied my contact list off of the LG1400 SIM card to the phone memory of the Nokia 6555. Then she put back the Nokia 6555 SIM card back into the Nokia 6555 and merely copied the contact list from the phone memory of the Nokia 6555 to the SIM card of the Nokia 6555.
    ALL WENT PERFECTLY!!!!
    I now have the contact list from my old LG1400 in two places in the Nokia 6555: In the phone memory AND on the SIM card.
    Of course, that now means that every entry in my contact list shows up twice. But, I can easily cure that by deleting the contact list from my phone memory & leaving it only on the SIM card.
    Since my contact list on my old LG1400 was only on the SIM card, that is where I think I will leave it for a while.
    LATER, I expect to take each contact one at a time & transfer each to the phone memory which would enable me to list the various telephone numbers for each contact. That would decrease the number of items in my contact list since most of my contacts have more than 1 telephone number.

  • Nokia 6555 Battery charging

    Hi to all,
    I am receiving a Nokia 6555 phone. I have heard they need frequent charging.
    I have also heard this was an early battery problem and it has been fixed.
    Please comment.
    Thanks,
    Jack

    Hi
    I bought a Nokia 6555 last week and my battery has a very poor life too. I use my phone only 10 minutes/day and I have to recharge it every 48 hours. Reading many forums I found many suggestments like disabling Bluetooth (didn't work), Disable UMTS (didn't work) ... Now I found a new solution that may fix the problem. The fact is that the electric contact between battery and cell.phone is very bad. The battery is moving, and sometimes as it moves the contact lose there connection with the battery terminals.
    To fix the problem I put a piece paper (rolled 4/5 times in order to have the disired thickness) inside the battery container in order to fit extra space between cell.phone and battery. The piece of paper must be put on the contact opposite side.

  • ISync & Nokia 6555

    I just got a Nokia 6555 and it can detect it under the bluetooth application, however when I try and use iSync it says this is not compatible.. Is there any way to get this to work?

    Hi,
    I was able to get the plugin to work with Tiger(10.4.10) w/ iSync 2.4 by copying the extracted folder to the iSync-app-plugin folder. To copy the extracted folder to iSync-app-plugin folder do the following:
    1. Ctrl-click the iSync application in the finder and select "show package contents".
    2. Copy the extracted folder(Nokia-6555.phoneplugin) from the plugin-tarball above to the "Contents\Plugins\ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice\Contents\
    Plugins\" directory.
    I have only tried syncing one-way for iCal -> nokia 6555 and so far it works. The AddressBook syncing seems to work in both directions.
    cheers and thanks to 'fintler' again for the this plugin!!!

  • Nokia 6555 - Main Display going 'dark'

    I bought Nokia 6555 today and have been pleased with it but I have one small problem: The main dispaly of the phone goes quite dark (tries to save power I suppose) if I keep idle for 10 secs. It's quite frustrating to press some key to get it bright again. Can I change this time or perhaps get the power saving off completely somewhere? Thanks in advance!

    Most new handset with a colour screen has this problem.
    Once the lights go out on the screen it sends the screen into darkness and the only way to get it back again is to press a button to light it all up.
    On the older handsets where the screens were 'black and white' this was never a problem.
    I'm afraid that is just how it is and there is not much that can be done.

  • How do I block numbers/texts? (nokia 6555)

    Someone keeps texting me constantly and I would like to block his number from texting me. Is there a way to do it? I've looked everywhere!
    My phone is a 6555 I think. Thanks!

    If you had a higher end Nokia with S60 operating system then you have plenty of options, but because your 6555 uses the more basic S40 operating system, there is no way to block calls or SMS.
    I suggest you change your number (get a new SIM card), call back or text the other people and ask them to stop calling or sending you messages.
    Or you could ask your network operator, if they have some sort of a blacklisting service, where the network blocks calls/messages.

    Yeah that's it.
    I think it may have something to do with application permissions on the phone that we don't have access to change, but it works on other nokia phones so I have no idea why it won't work on this one.

    like i said, the problem here could be with the provider, your phone is locked to AT&T, these guys are known to cripple the phones OS, particularly the BT...

  • Nokia 6555 problem with calls - the other person d...

    Hey
    If someone here knows something more about phones than i do, please help me with this. First time i received a call it worked, but only for about 2-3 minutes, after that the other person didn't hear me anymore, but i continued to hear her. The next call - same problem. But after that it didn't work at all, from the beginning they didn't hear me... I don't know, is it because of some settings i have to make or i should just go to a service to solve the problem?
    Thanks!

    Hello there trix25,

  • 6555 error icon please help

    I have a Nokia 6555 and when I shut it off, it is suddenly showing a small yellow box with a question mark inside, rather than the usual sign off logo. Any ideas what's wrong?

    Hi guyburstein,
    It sounds like its trying to find a 'signing off' logo such as the Nokia logo or maybe a network logo and you are getting that icon because it cant find the icon to display.
    You should try resetting the phone using the master reset option inside the phone settings, but be careful as this will delete your personal date such as contacts.
    If that doesnt work you will need to get the software completey re-installed at a Nokia Care Point, this guarantees that all the corrupted information is installed correctly.

  • 6555 firmware

    Hello everyone,im looking for any firmware for nokia 6555. All help greatly appreciated.
    Luke C.

    You cannot get unbranded software unless your phone is debranded. You would have to go to your network provider to whom the phone is branded and you would need a written permission from them to debrand your phone. Afterwhich they would install the unbranded update for you.
    EDIT: damn it why did this climb to the top? I'm necroposting LOL.

  • Can I make MANUAL corrections to my Contacts on iPhone 4S from my computer

    I put all of my Contact data from my old Nokia 6555 in Outlook & then synched Outlook to my new iPhone 4S through iTunes.
    But, now I am having to make a lot of manual corrections to the Contact data on my new iPhone 4S because the Contact data did not tranfers 100% correctly in the synch process.
    Is there a way for me to connect my iPhone 4S to my computer & make the numerous corrections from my computer.
    I do have an iTunes account & an Apple ID.

    No.
    It should be much easier and faster to make the corrections with Outlook followed by backing up the changed Outlook data before syncing the changes with your iPhone.
