Nokia e66-1 RM343 in usa

i am travelling to the usa soon and i wanted to take my phone with me which is listed in the subject line. i use email a lot so 3G is needed. i know it can't be used because it's the european version hence different frequencies. but is there any way to convert it to the american version (e66-2 RM345) like install a firmware or something so that it will work in america?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is no way to convert it to work on US 3G networks. You will be limited to slower GSM based data connections, or wi-fi only.
Software cannot solve your problem as the frequencies it can use are hard coded into it.
So if you want 3G in the US you need to buy another phone in the US.

  • Nokia E66 problem with calling

    HI! 
     It is less than two weeks from purchasing a brand new mobile phone - Nokia E66. Although it is a good device for a lot of things a modern men needs nowadays, it has some dificulties when it is ordered to call someone.
    It works fine for a day or two, but after some time calling a persone  from the adress book is impossible. Even if a number is displayed as an "unanswered call" and "yes" button is pressed everything from the screen dissapears. I am able to call someone only if I type a number manualy. Pressing the "yes" key works fine only if a number is typed manualy. Restarting the mobile phone also "repairs" the problem for a while.
    I have the neewest software installed on the phone. What to do next?

    i would consider reinstalling latest firmware and then using the code #2 from your home screen to finish the process. back up all your data and contacts if you don't have them on the sim card, remove the memory card when you do this and default code is 12345.
    1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
    Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list.
    2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone
    3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is dead proceed with reflash if not, turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    re-flash - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service.
    You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

  • Nokia E66-new firmware 400.21.013

    Hi Nokia guys,
    i have Nokia E66, used with Nokia original software only /even theme/.The telephone is blocking out at least twice per day. It is very unserious to leave such a business handset with messy software.
    I was very happy surpised today when i saw that a new firmware is came out /400.21.013/, BUT my NSU isn't support WINDOWS 7.
    In this case, what i /and all Nokia customers/ shall do?
    PS- hope new release of firmware to fix most of bugs

    hi, i downloaded the new software version for my e66 and when i switch on the phone it says lock code. so i entered the default lock code 12345 and it dint unlock. i have never put a lock code before.
    please help

  • US and EU Nokia E66 ???

    Hello,
    I called Nokia Support over this issue /discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&message.id=31395&query.id=909973#M31395
    After giving them serial number they told me there are two type of Nokia E66, one for US and one for EU market. I don't know how I ended up with US in Europe.
    Who can tell me what is latest version of software for EU and for US and is there any difference between them?
    damiri

    The main difference between the hardware intended for US (North America) vs. Europe/Asia is the 3G (WCDMA/UMTS) frequencies supported by the phone.
    However, since they are different devices, they'll have different firmware codelines. Most typically it seems that the US/North American firmware versions come behind the European/Asian corresponding models.
    Overall (besides the different cellular frequencies), there're usually no other significant differences in the basic S60/Symbian software and default applications.
    I don't know how you ended up with an US model in Europe, except if someone imported the US model, or a retailer accidentally ordered US models. If you got an US model, then the charger would also have an US wall plug, though.
    And, of course, the supported language combinations vary between the models.
    There might also be regional differences in supplied additional applications, sales box contents. And of course operator customization has some impact (if it is not an unlocked retail/open market unit).
    When you "dial" *#0000# what RM-code is listed on your phone? The European model should be shown as "RM-343".

  • Nokia E66 three finger reset

    hey, i just bought a used nokia e66 from someone.
    my phone service provider is a different provider than this phone is programmed to work with.
    ive tried doing the 3 finger deep reset, and even the *# whatever numbers it was reset. and the phone isnt responding to them in any way.
    after the 3 finger reset, it just starts up normally and tells me my sim isnt recognized.
    im located in israel, is it possible that this reset is done differently here? any ideas? thnks
    Moderator's note: The title was amended as this post was moved from another thread.

    Provided that you kept * 3 green keys depressed whilst powering on until Nokia "Shaking hands" logo appears device will have been reset to factory settings, but this has no bearing upon whether device is SIM locked to another provider.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • Nokia E66 - Exchange sync

    my company email is under exchange platform..n for us to sync using PDA, we must install the certificate as well, otherwise ou PDA cant use the direct push..
    so in this case, can nokia E66 or any nokia phone use the same email? because i am not sure wether the cert can be install to E66 or not, since it is create for PDA (window mobile based)

    The cert will not be particular to the PDA's and generally sepaking should work with an E66.
    Ensure you have the latest version of MfE, you can download it here

  • Nokia E66 Cable Connection Error

    Hi,
    Am Using Nokia E66-1(08) ( RM-343) with the firmware version 410.21.010
    I have a problem with connecting my mobile to PC via cable. The cable is working fine. ( I have checked it by connecting the other mobiles)
    When I connect the cable, It asks me to select the options such as "Mass Storage", "PC-Suite" etc. But once I select "PC-suite" from the available options, mobile doesn't get connected to the PC. I cannot see the USB connection symbol in the right top side of my mobile.
    Can anyone help me on this.
    Should I go for repairing the connection port of my mobile?
    OR It mite work with a firmware update\re-installation ?
    But again, is the cable connection port of my mobile not working? But it detects that cable is connected, because when I connect the cable, it asks for the type of connection I want to make...
    Plzzzz help me out.
    Thanks,

    I have same prblm with nk x3-02, can anyone help me out.

  • Nokia E66 EAP-TLS error

    Hi, I am configuring a Nokia E66 (wich is v4 in Cisco Compatible Extensions, so it supports EAP-TLS) with WPA2 EAP-TLS against IAS in a Cisco Wireless Network and I always obtain the same error in the IAS event viewer.
    denied accesss
    Authentication-Type = EAP
    EAP-Type = Smart Card or other certificate
    Reason-Code = 16
    Reason = Authentication was not successful because an unknown user name or incorrect password was used.
    Has anybody tried E66 with EAP-TLS?
    Any experiences?

    Yes, this is my setup
    - hidden network
    - infraestructure
    - security: WPA/ WPA2
    - EAP
    - Plug -ins: EAP-TLS. I select the user certificate and the CA certificate. User name from the certificate, domain from the certificate
    - WPA2 only mode
    In the IAS log, the username is correct, but always appear this strange error. The certificates and infraestructure I use it works well in a notebook
    Thanks

  • Error code 12017,nokia e66 software updation fails

    The following errors occours when i want to update nokia e66 software
    i was updating my phone software,during updating something wrong done,due to this
    1- My mobile phone files mmssync and contact group ds plugin corrupted.
    2- When i update my phone software through nokia suit,  nokia suit try to install mmssync and contact group ds plugin but gives error msg files are corrupted.
    3- when nokia suit download phone software and begin to install it,then usb cable disconneced then after some time connected.
    please tell me what should i do.my phone model is nokia e66
    Answare me as soon as possible.

    I doubt that it will fix your firmware installation problem, but I did once have a problem where a "DS Plugin" became corrupt.  The fix is to manually delete the bad program(s) in Application Manager (possibly in Control Panel -> Application Manager -> Installed Apps).  This is perfectly safe.  Delete "Contact Group DS Plugin" and probably "MMSync", too, then reboot the phone and reconnect it to Nokia Suite.  The plugins should then install normally.  I hope that helps.

  • Wlan Controller and NOKIA e66 problem

    Hi all I want to ask some questions: I'mexperiencing these serious problem: when i place a voip call with E66 the voice is seriously chopped.
    With 7921 the voice is ok.
    I'm using: WLC 4402 (vers 4.2.207.0) nokia Call Connector 1.60 on nokia e66, UCM 6.1. I used the same configuration of the WLAN of 7921 as QoS and other specification.
    The encryption is WPA (I tried with CCKM+tkip+LEAP as the 7921 work but i have also LEAP authentication problem but is not the most important thing now).
    I don't know what to do.
    Can somebody help me?
    Thanks for your support

    Hi,
    I upgraded to PR3 only my personal Phone and i made the tests with my e66.
    I disabled the 802.11b network.
    The problem is very evident when i place a call nokia<->7921.
    calls nokia<->other cisco phone (non wifi) is acceptable but not very good.
    If I make a call using nokia<->PSTN lines is ok (It is quite like other phone).
    If I disable CAC the situation is the same
    I don't know if it is a roaming problem or other problems.
    Thanks
