Nokia E61 - Connection Error

I have a new E61 (from Vodafone in the UK). Most of the time it is fantastic - email, text, internet are all fine. However, over the last 2 weekends it has failed to make telephone calls. It displays "connection error" once it starts ringing the other number and then disconnects. It receives calls and sends/receives emails but fails to make a standard call. I tried ringing my home number and as soon as the phone rings it comes up with connection error. If I swop the SIM to a different phone I can make calls. Thew problem disappears after some time for no apparent reason.
I've taken it back once ad it started working and was OK for a week. Any ideas before it goes back again?
Cheers Dave

I've had this randomly on my phone on O2 before. I didn't get it from O2 though.
I've read somewhere in the past this is a common occurrence with all symbian or n-series phones.
But i've been in the middle of a call on my N73 and it fades out and then flashes up "Connection Error" and my mate has had this quite frequently on his Orange N80.
Hope this helps.

  • Nokia N95 connection error

    Hi Guys,
    I would appreciate, if someone could help me with Nokia N95’s connection error problem. I have my Nokia n95 from orange. From last two weeks every time I try to make a call, I get an error saying ‘Connection error’. I tried upgrading my phone’s firmware from version 10 to version 11 but in vain.
    I tried talking to Orange support staff but they turned out to be clueless.
    cheers...

  • Nokia E65 Connection Error

    I am having Connection Error in my E65 when I try to dial any number, however it still recognize network operator. Any clue?

    I have a Nokia E65-1 but since day one I have had the "Connection Error" problem.
    Basically quite often when I try to make a call I can't. I will repeatedly get "Connection Error" on my screen.
    Or I'll be in the middle of a conversation (often with 3 Customer Services) and the phone will terminate the conversation.
    I'm on the 3-UK network and the work-around above is not available. In the menu I get Menu > Settings > Network > Network Mode > Dual mode
    So it is defaulted to "Dual mode" and there are no other options.
    I have sent my phone away for repair twice:
    1. re-flash done - no change
    2. couldn't find an error with my phone
    Then 3 replaced my hand-set with a second-hand E65-1 but I still get exactly the same problem.
    3 have told me that it is a service issue and that they can't do anything about it.
    I have used a friend's K810i with my 3-Sim and the problem didn't happen. Conclusively the phone and since I now have been given a different E65-1 I'm guessing all E65's have this problem or I'm just really unlucky.

  • Nokia 5230 connection error.

    Nokia 5230 always say connection error when trying to make a call inside the house, even with full bar of signal & 3G. Anyone else have this issue or can help me out?

    @mokrypes
    This seems to be working now. I tried today to download US maps and it completed and installed without any issues. Guess there was some problem with the map server.

  • Nokia C7 Connection Error, Dropped Calls

    Hi, 
    I have a Nokia C7 with firmware I updated somewhere at the end of 2010 or beginning of 2011. 
    The problem I have is that during normal calls the line just drops unexpectedly, and "Connection error" is displayed onscreen.
    The voice kind of fades and then the error message appears, and happens within maybe 2 secs
    I first thought it must be the duel mode for 3G/GSM switching around that must be the culprit. However after switching to GSM for a few days the same problem still occurred. It happens daily at least 5 times and is very irritating. 
    I use the phone in both my car and handheld, and dropped calls still occur, so vibration or SIM not touching the connectors can be cancelled out.
    The signal bar on both 3G and GSM is medium-ish, and with a call in progress it goes up and down like a crazy beat machine. The previous phones I used did not have this problem at all, in fact they had reception where this C7 do not have. Their signal bars stayed fairly constant and did not drop calls and I used the same SIM-Card.
    I live in a city but do quite a bit of traveling, and on both occasions connection errors occur every day, randomly and with no pattern I can suspect. 
    I am in the progress of getting a new similar, as it is the most probable component failing, however it is quite new, and will upgrade my firmware to the latest version, (I think the newest is Feb. 2011).
    I would like if someone could help me with the issue, as I think it might be the phone itself, however the problem is network related. 
    Thank you,
    Skietvark 

    I have the same issue on a C7 supplied by an insurer. The phone is SIM 3 and upuntil 2 weeks ago worked fine.
    No I am unable to get any signal. And when I do the bar goes imdiately down when i try making a call. / Text or web.
    I have tried 3x new sim card.
    The phone is currently with Nokia care under the warranty and awaiting for insurer to hopefully replace it.
    I have tried hard resets and firmware upgrades did not makie any difference. My other 3 mobile phones work fine.

  • Nokia E61 system error, phone start-up failure

    Good day I did a software update(RM89) on my E61 phone. After completion and start up my phone gave me a system error and then phone start up failure. How can i reset or go in to safe mode to rective to problem?

    The only things you can try are:
    1) Read this post in the Pool of Knowledge:
    Recovering from a failed update
    and 2) Take your phone into a Nokia Care Point. Note that if your phone is still in the warranty period and it got bricked as a result of using NSU, the repair is covered under the warranty.

  • Nokia Map Loader Error in connection

    Hi Guys,
    I have an N80 and have the MAPS software installed on my phone and the Nokia Map Loader software on my Laptop. However, in order for me to download the maps I have to connect my N80 to my laptop in Data Transfer Mode and then run Nokia Map Loader. This should then allow me to download the Maps. I get an error when connecting to my laptop in Data Transfer Mode. It just says Invalid usb connection or something like that. No I don't think it is the maps software but I would like to know if any of you had the same problem before and how it can be resolved. I sent a note to Nokia Tech team to see if they know but it takes a while for them to get back to you.
    So, does anybody know how I can get past this or get the MAPS downloaded?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    can´t connect nokia map loader, error, won´t work?
    I had this same problem, found your post looking for an answer (lol), and I just SOLVED the problem ; )
    First, you don´t connect in data transfer mode. You must use pc suite mode, or it won´t work.
    Second, (and this is the tricky part), YOU HAVE TO INSTALL nokia maps on your smartphone (so far ok, we all know this), but then you have to RUN THE PROGRAM ONCE.
    Don´t ask me why, but if you just install nokia maps, then try to connect with nokia map loader, it won´t work. You have to install the program then run it once. Exit the program, then connect to you pc (nokia map loader) with pc suite mode.
    BTW, do NOT install nokia maps on your smartphone on the phone memory. ALWAYS USE THE CARD MEMORY, install nokia maps on your memory card, because the maps are so huge. Most phones won´t have enough internal space.
    So this is it, no more suffering. Damn, I´m good ; )

  • Nokia lumia 710 CONNECTION ERROR

    Hi,
    I have a noia lumia 710, and whenever I connect my windows phone , zune opens but then an error message prompts. " Connection error, Can't connect to your phone. Disconnect it, restart it, then try connecting  again."
    I have tried all possible solutions.
    I try every steps suggested in that link.
    http://www.zune.net/en-US/support/zunesoftware/sol​vingproblems/phoneupdateprobs.htm
    and also that link
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2468307
    BUT  I could do the Certificate steps cause when I open certmgr.msc I don't see anywhere the Zune certificate.
    All I have is one program..in that " list ".
    Thanks!

    Hi, 
          There is a simple solution. I observed. When you sync your phone with out a entry password and then set a password on the phone. May be the phone doesn't get connected...
    When I made zune to forget the device and connected again it asked for me to enter the password to start the sync. I realized last time I synced there wasn't a password..

    Had the same issue. My bet is you are trying to use a Telstra Next-G card in a non-Telsrtra Next-G phone.
    The software is not compatible. You will need a Next-G phone.
    I had to purchase two new phones N95 and 6120. Problem soleved.
    The real issue is that sales staff do not really understand the difference between 3G and NextG.

  • Airport Snow and Nokia E61

    So I am trying to use my Airport Snow with a Nokia E61 with no success. The E61 can see the Airportstation without problem, but as soon as I try to connect to the internet I get a error. I made no security settings on the Airport and it is working because I can use it with my Powerbook. Also I can use the wifi of a neighbor who also has a open wifi so some setting in the Airport is blocking the E61 ... anybody got this working?

    Yes you can use the MacBook Pro with the snow (dual Ethernet) AirPort base station (ABS).
    The snow ABS is based on 802.11b.
    The MacBook Pro has 802.11g built-in.
    Since 802.11g is backwards compatible with 802.11b, the MacBook Pro will work with a snow ABS.
