Nokia 6600 Fold SIM Contacts List
I've just purchased a Nokia 6600 fold and I'm trying to configure the settings of my contacts list. My contacts are currently listed as per the example below:
Citizen;John/5
However, I want them to display like this:
John Citizen
I have been into the settings and chosen to display First Name First, but my contacts are still not displaying as I want them to. What am I not doing, and can I fix this problem?
BTW, what does the number represent?
As a new member, Hi All
I hate to open an old can of worms but reading the history of the endless problems people have had with the 6600 fold, I wondered if there has ever been a happy outcome.
I realise the 6600 fold is now an old phone, but I have been using Nokia since the original 101 and like their products, this one really suits my needs.
However I have the intermittent crash that I read about so much on this forum. The double tap cover display fails, the electro magnetic fold realise fails and the numeric keys fail, plus various other features die. I have done all the usual home remedies using the Nokia suite like reinstalling software etc, checked battery voltage and so on to no avail. The only answer is to power off and on again or sometimes remove the battery.
I have taken it to two different Nokia care centres (LOL) nether were able to identify the fault (one down in Cornwall charged me £25 to tell me they could not find the problem).
Can anybody put me out of my misery please, as you can see I really like this phone and want to keep it going
Thank you

Nokia 6600 fold - no USB connection with PC Suite
Hi,
I've got a new 6600 fold phone. I've insatlled Nokia PC Suite 7.1 and connected the phone with the USB cable. The PC recognized it and installed it just fine. And yet, the PC suite doesn't "see" the phone - I can't choose any of the options to connect on the menu.
Tried to reinstall, read every possible guide, restarted both PC and cell phone several times. Nothing works.
Any ideas what else I can do?
(I don't have a bluetooth connection on the PC)
Thanks.Hi,
I was having the same problem with my 6600 slide, when trying to use the software updater. I noticed that the phone was connected on port COM11, i simply changed this to the lowest COM port available (in my case COM1) and the software updater picked it up.
To change COM port right click
My Computer and select Properties
Select Device Manager
Expand Ports (COM & LPT)
Right click your Nokia phone USB and select Properties
Select Port Settings
Click Advanced button
Choose a new COM port from the drop down list
Click OK when done -
Nokia 6280 failure restoring contact list using pc...
Hello,
I own a Nokia 6280. Firmware - v3.81
OS: Win XP.
I took the phone to my local phone provider(partner orange, from which I bought the device) to update the phones version. This action has deleted my entire contact list.
Beforehand I made a backup using the pc suite back up feature, and the backup went smoothly. Now, when I try to restore my info using the restore function in the backup(content copier),it restores everything except the contact list. Somewhat in the middle of the resotration of the contact list, an error jumps saying the connection to the phone has been list. A few seconds later the connection restores automatically.
I tried solving the problem using this thread:
http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/discussions/board/message?board.id=pcsuite&message.id=7746&view=...
But it didnt quite work
What can I do to solve this problem? How can I restore my contacts?
And if not, Is there a way to convert the Backup NBU file into Outlook VCF format?
Best regards,

I've got my entire contact list on the backup file.
except notepad can't disipher the the names into english, and so cant hexedit's of their sort.
Example from the notepad of the backup file:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0 /*jibrish should be the nemes*/
N;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE;CHARSET=UTF-8:׳’׳ ׳¢׳“;׳¨׳‘׳™׳ ׳ ;;;

TEL;HOME:*phone number*
TEL;HOME:*phone number*
TEL;WORK:*phone number*

I tried to recover the phone as soon as I recieved it from the phone provider with the new v3.81. That is , the manufacturer's settings were the default. Unfortunantly that didn't work. -

Importing contacts into Public Folder email contact list under the folder
I am able to create a public folder and add a blank contacts list
1. How to do I import external contacts into the public folders contact list?
* I imported all external contacts via CSV into the GAL and then manually added all of them to my contacts list. I then moved them form my contacts to the public folders contact list.
There has to be a easier way.
2. How come I can't show the public folders contact list in Favorites? I can see the public folder but not the contacts list in that public folder even after I add it to my favorites.Hi,
You may export the contacts from the Personal contact folder and then import it to the Public folder.
The following article for your reference:
Export contacts
You can export contacts to a file that can then be imported into other applications, such as Web mail clients, Excel spreadsheets, or database applications.The most common export file format is a comma separated value (CSV) file.
Import contacts
Contacts can be imported into Outlook from other applications or from exported Outlook contacts. These instructions assume that you have already exported the contacts from the other application, such as a Web client, Excel spreadsheet, or database application.
Hope this helps!
Thanks.

Nokia C7 Dialing from contact list
I'm having problem dialing from contact list and recent calls. I can only makes calls when dialing the numbers. I can receive calls. Texting works fine from contact list and recent calls, but voice call can only be done by dialing the number .Phone has to reboot everytime it happens.
Hi Remembranze,
First of all, check via Nokia Suite and on the phone itself for any firmware updates that may be available. IF there is an update, please update to the latest version offered. If there is no update, then try re-installing your current firmware via Nokia Suite. Failing this, try Restoring your phone to factory settings, and if this doesn't work, then you try performing a three finger hard reset. Failing this, you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect.

Adding Dutch language to the Nokia 6600 menu
Two weeks ago my SonyEricsson W380i went broke (second time) during my Greek holidays.
I had to replace it locally with what I found an attractive phone; the Nokia 6600 fold.
After having it set out of the Greek menu.. I had the choice for a couple of languages.. took English.
Living in Belgium I would prefer the menu in Dutch, but that is not on the phone.
Is it possible to download that language to my phone?
What link?
Appreciate comments.
GuidoIt is not possible for you to download and install languages yourself. You should contact your local Nokia Care Point and see if they are able to add a language or change the language pack for you.

Backing up my SimCard Contact List(?)
I need to move all my contacts to my Treo 650 from my SimCard so that after-market contact lists (such as TouchBook) can see them. Apparantly these programs only look at the device itself, not the SIM.
Is there any way to backup the Sim contact list in case I need to reinstall them later (if I change phones I need them back on the SIM). Alternately, is there a way to print them out so I can at least manually re-enter them later?
Also, I already asked, but no answer, can you copy all at once to the Treo or do you need to do it one number at a time?
Thanks, I know, dumb question, but I am still learning all this stuff.

PC Suite won't recongise 6600 fold
Hi
Hope someone can help.
I have had a Nokia for years and always regularly back-up my information using the Nokia PC Suite.
However I have recently tried to back-up my girlfriends Nokia 6600 fold for her and it will not connect to Nokia PC Suite. When you connect the phone after about 30 seconds a message pops up that says "no response from host". There is then an option to slect USB mode but selecting "PC suite" does not successfully link the phone to PC suite. Whenever you click on "get connected" within PC suite it simply fails to locate the phone.
It is not a problem with the phone/computer compatability as I can get to the pictures through windows explorer by selecting "data storage" on the phone from the USB option menu.
Appreciate any help as slightly frustrating????Try with the latest version of OVI Suite..

How to get contact list from a damaged nokia 6303
My mobile phone get some physical damage - the display was broken. Now he dont get on at all. I managed to get him connected to my computer.
After several repluggs of the data cable the computer finally found him. Now i have a connection to it, so it worked to copy files via total commander. Now i got (from the importatnt stuff, not counting music and photos i had stored on the phone) some files (a file without and format with the name "qf" and a "rm443_conpack_conf.cnfp" ) and a folder (cities) with files in format .cdt and .cfg
i would like to save my contact list. Dont you everyone now, if any of this files is the contact list? and if yes, how do i get to open it?
tried nokia PC suite, but however it can find the phone, it still writes "connnected in a non-compatible mode" and nothing is displayed...
if someone knows, how to help me, thanksyou could try a few ways, not sure which will give best success:
Copy the contacts from 6233 to the SIM and then move the SIM to the new phone (assumes both phones are from same network operator or one of them is unlocked), then copy contacts back from SIM to N79
Install latest PC suite, backup 6233 to PC and then restore just the contacts data to the N79
Run the Switch application in the N79, it might be able to pull some content off your 6233
Send the contact as "business card" via bluetooth to the N79 (not sure if there is a 'select all' option in the 6233 contacts application. -
Nokia 5800 - the contact list doubles in size by d...
Hello,
I own a Nokia 5800,
After updating firware from v11 to v20,
i started facing a weird problem.
from the home screen when i press the contacts button, the contact list comes up as expected,
but after about half a sec, all the contacts gets doubled( i.e. 2 copies of each contacts exist).
It doesnt happen everytime, but once it happens the only solution i found was to delete all the contacts, and copy them back from the memory card which i had backed up.
and in the options->settings, i have set it to display contacts only from "phone memory",
and not from "sim memory" and "service nums".. so problem is not with displaying contacts from 2 sources.
Also i have abt 420 contacts, so the sim cant hold these many( limits to 127 contacts).. so its not coming from my sim.
my 420 contacts is becoming 840 contacts.
Additional info:
If i delete one copy of the contact, both the copies gets deleted.
and also when a contacts makes a call to my phone, her name appears..( This doesnt happen if the same number exists more than once in the list)
Any1 has any solution to this problem or any idea as to why its happening??
Thanks.

Having copied the Address book from my Palm to my Curve 8520, I find it is sharing the folder with the Contacts list from my Sim card. Can I do anything to ensure that the folder always opens to the Sim card list first?
OK...so this post is strictly about wanting to send your contacts to the SIM. That capability is one at a time only. And there's a reason for that.
The BB Address Book is robust, allowing you to have one name with multiple phone numbers and addresses. The SIM phonebook, on the other hand, is much less capable...if, for instance, you have one contact with three phone numbers in your BB Address Book, the SIM phonebook would require three separate entries to contain the same data (with the obvious duplication of the name on three separate records).
So, I must ask...why on earth do you want to send your contacts to your SIM? There are much better methods for moving your contacts from the BB to somewhere else...
