Nokia Asha 503 Language pack

I bought this phone for my mom and would need to set it to Hungarian. Unfortunately as it was purchased in the UK it's missing from the list. Someone on an online forum stated that Nokia would be able to install/flash (whatever) a different language pack for fee, however I just got off the Live Chat with an agent and he said they can't do it.
Do you guys have any ideas how could I do this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There you go …
Everything is tied to the 7-letter code (product code) on the label of your phone. That determines the firmware-variant you have. The firmware-variant determines the set of languages you get. Officially, only Nokia Care Centres are allowed to change that product code, officially. I guess, the much easier solution is to sell that device and go for a Nokia Lumia 520 or Nokia Lumia 620. because they run Windows Phone, they allow all languages to be downloaded afterwards.

  • Marathi/Hindi font in Nokia Asha 503

    Hello
    Yesterday I bought Nokia Asha 503 and updated phone to latest software update by Nokia.
    It doesn't support Marathi/Hindi font. Can somebody please help me here?
    Thanks in advance.
    Abhijeet

    Hi jabhijeet,
    Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions! 
    The language pack made available on a Nokia phone is market and country dependent. The Marathi/Hindi language is only available on Nokia phones intended for countries where the language is mainly used so it should be available in your device if it was originally purchased in India.
    BTW, before updating it to the latest software, are you able to see Marathi/Hindi font? 

  • ISync to nokia asha 503: is there a plug-in to enable this?

        I have recently bought a new Nokia Asha 503 phone, and when I got it home, tried to sync it to my Mac.  iSync tells me "this device is not supported".  Is there a plug-in I can install, or should I carry on entering contacts onto the phone by hand?

    .. for a 'zoom' plug-in.. adding a slight zoom could 'push' the mic outside the frame.. but, zooming video means allways a (dramatic) loss in pic quality.. just test it ...

  • Nokia Asha 503 Whatsapp problem

    I have been frequently asked to upgrade with a message given below -
    Expired
    This copy of WhatsApp has expired. Please click upgrade to start the upgrade process.
    Upgrade  |   Exit
    When I did the last few times all the whatsapp data is gone nothing could be seen, no history.
    Is this a virus, trojan, malware, that ware this ware what ware, whatever is it official and how do I do a safe upgrade.
    An ofcourse my Nokia Asha 503 is a by large very poor performer in terms of net, fb, whatsapp.
    Any help is appreaciated.

    What happens if you go to www.whatsapp.com/s40 with your phone's browser? Does it still tell you to upgrade after you download and install the latest version?
    Also, what do you mean by "a by large very poor performer in terms of net, fb, whatsapp"?

  • Nokia asha 503 how to conect yahoo messenger ?

     Hi everyone ,how i can to conect yahoo mes from nokia asha 503 ? Thanks!

    Hi cristimar,
    Welcome to the forum! 
    Depending on your region, you can try checking the Store if Yahoo Messenger is available for download on your Asha 503. There are also other chat and social applications that have Yahoo Messnger client. Here's an example: NimBuzz
    It would also be good to ask Yahoo if they have plans of releasing their mobile chat app to the New Asha OS. Visit this link to go to their support page: https://messenger.yahoo.com/
    Let us know if you need further help.

  • Nokia asha 503 mms problems.

    Hi, I've recently bought a nokia asha 503 but I can't send/recieve pictures. I have phoned my provider numerous times but they don't know how to activate it or get it working. All the usual things have been tried, I even got a new replacement phone but I still can't do anything with pictures. Anyone else had the same problems??

    i had my fone exchanged from nokia 206 to nokia asha 503 as the prev did noit support wi-fi as i was told in the shop. Since i got the asha a week ago ive been to the shop 5 times as cannot send or receive mms. The 5 guys in ths shop were unable to help so contacted o2 online ...who advised them to 'google' the problem as they could not fix it. I went back to store today to be told that is is a software issue...the 503 usues old software and they dont know when it will be updated. I asked for an exchange ...as i mainly use my fone for wi-fi and mms and was told no way as i have already swapped it from the 206. As i explained that was down to the salesman who told me it had wi-fi!!!! They refused today to exchange for a different fone which supports mms this is not my problem as a customer the fact that i was sold a first fone which did not do what they said it did...now a second fone which again does not do what it says. I was told because there is noi fault with this fone i have to kkep it!!! OR download 'Whats -app' to send and receive mms. Againb i told them the fone would not let me download this app, but they were not concerned at all. If that was not all i then see a poster reducing the nokia asha from 69.99 (which i paid last week) to 49.99. The tech guy in the shop Nick Jane told me i had no choice but to keep this fone and just put up with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If this is not sorted i am taking it to Trading Standards.

  • Nokia 6300 Dutch Language Pack - T9??

    Have just got a Nokia 6300 on Orange in the UK. It doesn't have Dutch as an option for phone language or T9.

  • Nokia 225 Arabic Language Pack

    Is it possible to add the arabic language pack to the nokia 225? My mother just bought a new nokia but she loves arabic and it is necessary that she can read it on her phone. If not, could someone suggest a simple nokia (not smartphone) with the arabic preinstalled. The product code of the phone is 059V5W8. Thanks.

    With a Nokia Series 30+ (MediaTek) based phone like yours, the set of languages depend on the firmware variant. The firmware variant is identified through the Nokia Product Code which is printed on the label on the phone (059…). You have a phone designated for Germany. If you had 059V5Z3 for example, you would get the Arabic language. However, you might loose other languages this way, like German. Which languages do you need?
    Officially, only a Nokia Care Center is able to change the firmware variant, officially.

    Both Apple iPhone and Windows Phone can be used as feature phones, when you disable the mobile data. Apple iPhone comes with all languages preinstalled and costs around 280 € new. With a Windows Phone, you need a Wi-Fi once to download additional languages – this can be done directly from its user-interface. I recommend to start with the Nokia Lumia 730, because of its compass sensor for pedestrian navigation – which starts at 180 € currently.

  • Nokia Asha 300 language change

    Hi
    I have tried to find the answer to my question here but was not successful.
    I am going to buy a Nokia Asha 300 phone soon in the UK but I need it with Polish settings. I know this device does not support this language by defaul if bought in England so is there any way to install Polish language on it? 
    Many thanks for your help

    No, that is not possible.
    With a Windows Phone, you would be able to add additional languages from within the menu. With a Nokia Series 40 like your Nokia 300, the set of languages it tied to the currect firmware product-code. Consequently, if you swap the whole firmware and install one for another product code, then, yes, you are able to do so. This can be done with cracked tools on the Internet, or officially at your local Nokia Care point. Consequently, it might be easier to ask an acquaintance to bring a phone from Poland.
