Then I am afraid there is nothing more you can try. The only option is to bring it to your nearest NCP.

Nokia C3 not booting

Hi,
I brought brand new nokia C3, around 5-6 months back.
Today, it stopped suddenly and not booting-up at all.
The steps I performed:
1. Connected my C3 device with Ovi-Suite.
2. Copying mp3s from PC to C3 device.
3. Parallely opened the target folder in C3 ..............
...............GONE
Now my C3 device stopped everything and powered off automatically.
Many attempts to start the phone did not make it to boot. Even I removed and inserted the battery.
what next?
Regards,
Anil

Hi guys, have you tried removing the battery, memory card & press the power botton for 15 seconds?otherwise you'll have to take it to a Nokia service point.

Nokia N97 Not booting Up...

So I was having issues with getting my usb cable to charge with my phone, and also my phone kept turning on and off, but then netquin antivirus says it has detected multiple startups and has disabled all startup programs, and now my phone will not boot and I cant even recover the data using USB cable. I am unable to do a hard reset because I have alot of important contacts and photos on there...

@Dean235
Unfortunately you are probably stuck now as Care Point would have disclaimer about preservation of any data; don't really know why installing application such as Netquin Antivirus upon N97 which is short enough on phone memory as it is.

NOKIA N78 TIME ISSUE

I just bought brand new Nokia N78 and I could not get into time and date settings at all, so I decided to update the phone and everything went ok so I got 12.046 version on... then I wanted to change time and date again and I could not get in it always puts me back to main menu ???? I have used 7370 code to reset and I got the same problem ?
What should I do ?

actually the correct code would be *#7370#
now keep in mind that you will lose all your data so make sure you do a back up prior.
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.

That link is for the flasher tool, you'll need that to repair the device..
Here are the steps.. you'll need to follow them pretty accurately:
turn phone off
remove battery
put battery back in
plug USB cable into computer
Press and hold down the 'u' button on the keyboard.. don't let it go
plug USB cable into phone
wait until the Nokia logo appears, a little USB icon should appear in the top right corner of the screen. the backlight MAY NOT turn on at all
release the 'u' button
run the flasher tool: flasher-3.5 --enable-rd-mode
The flasher prog should run for a moment then finish. If it DOES NOT and sits waiting for suitable device, STOP.. this is bad..
Ok, if all that went well, now for the repair bit
unplug the USB from the phone
The phone will power off or reboot
If the phone turned off, turn it on with the power button
let the phone boot up.. it may take some time.. some reports say you might need to enter the date/time again..
If it doesn't boot STOP.. something has gone bad..
Ok, if the phone booted ok, finish off
Turn the phone off with the power button
remove battery
reinsert battery
press and hold the 'u' button
insert USB cable into phone
wait until the Nokia logo appears as before
release the 'u' button
run the flasher tool again: flasher --disable-rd-mode
wait for flasher to finish.. if it sits waiting for suitable device STOP.. something has gone wrong.. it shoudl run for a few seconds then stop.. anything else is bad
Remove USB cable from phone
phone might restart or turn off.. if it turns off, turn it on..
Hopefully you're fixed and up and running..
Let us know how you get on
Anyone else reading this, don't just follow the instructions if you're unsure.. ASK someone first.. This proceedure is subject to change in the future when new firmware is released and tools are updated

My Nokia N78 (firm 30.011) doesn't refresh the lib...

I have Nokia N78 30.011 and a have a very annoying bug. I updated the firmware version from 20.149 to 30.011 and since then i cannot upload music to the music library. I copy it to my microSD card and put the option to refresh the music library.... and nothing. I tried to upload the music files via Nokia Music Manager and still nothing. I reinstalled the phone software but i still cannot refresh the library. The songs which are uploaded before the update are in the library but i cannot input nothing more. With my older version of the phone software i don't have such problems. Should i return my phone software to the previous version (and how)?

Hi penio, first of all try to delete these files - You can do this to rebuild the library as it is corrupted.
Restart your device and then refresh your library. If this doesn't help then;
Connect the phone to your PC/laptop and put in 'Data transfer' mode.
To delete the library files:
- Ensure you can see hidden files in Windows Explorer:
Windows Explorer .. Tools .. Folder Options .. View
Select "Show hidden files and folders"
- Connect the phone to your PC using the USB cable in "Data transfer" mode
- Find and rename (or delete if you're really brave) files with names like:
E:\private\101FFC31\mpxv1.mpd
E:\private\101FFC31\pcv5.mpd
E:\private\101ffca9\harvesterdb.dat
(assuming the phone's mass memory / card has been connected as E)
Note that the folder names may be different and the files may have prefixes - eg: mpxv1.mpd could be called abcmpxv1.mpd. Basically, you need to search under the Private folder for any files that look similar.
Now just refresh the Music Player library and the job is done.
This will take longer than normal as it's a complete refresh, but it should now work.
If this doesn't work then format your memory card but copy your IMP stuff.
Please thank me by giving 'KUDOS' star. It will help me to serve you better.
Currently using N82 and 5230. Next would be N?

Nokia N78 - Power Saver Timeout reverts to default

I received the nokia N78 from vodafone on Saturday and set it up for the power saver to kick in after 30 seconds (from the sliding option scale of 1-90 seconds. I found that after the first couple of times of this functioning as requested it reverts back to a default of 5 seconds before going into power save. The requested 30 seconds remains in the settings but still the default overrides. I tried resetting this a number of times with identical results. I received a replacement handset today and attempted similar setups of this feature with the same identical results....It becomes very frustrating when your mid text or searching the gallery and the screen goes blank despite specific settings requested....Has anyone else had this problem or does anyone know how I can fix this???

N78 Firmware 12.046.051.1
NOKIA N78 GREAT BUT 3 BUGS (SO FAR)
Bug 1: On my N78 if I enable the "phone autolock period" to anything, the lights go off at 5 seconds and if I do factory defaults and do not use "phone autolock", the lights stay on as long as I set it to. Quite frustrating as I like my phone to "autolock always" if unattended or lost.
Workaround:
1) Factory defaults your Mobile and just don't use 'phone autolock'.
OR
2) A restart corrects everything temporarily, but after several timeouts, it returns to the 5 seconds setting.
Yes, it is really an annoying bug Nokia.
Bug 2: Weekly alarm; if I set a new weekly alarm for any future day and on saving it the day sets to today every time. This is just annoying.
Bug 3: With N78 ' in KEY-PAD autolocked mode', the alarm goes off when you press 'stop' for longer than a second, and surprise the message reader activates like postmaster.
Wakeup Nokia this firmware has been out for a while now and its time to come up with new firmware without bugggggggggssssssss....
Hope Nokia will come out with new bug free firmware for N78.

Low fm transmission power on Nokia N78

Hello,
I have Nokia N78 phone. This phone works great, no huge issues with it. However, there is one issue that is bugging me. The issue is that the power of the FM transmitter is too low, even a good radio is unable to pick up the signal from the phone at even 20 cm distance (that is less then 100mW of power). I do not believe this to be a hardware, or antenna issue. I believe that this is a software bug in the newest release of the Nokia N78 software, as the transmission was not this low with older software versions of Nokia N78. This issue also appeared after I did update the software to newest version on Nokia N78.
Information with *#0000#
Software Version: 30.011
Day software: 08-05-09
Special software version: 30.011.051.1
Day special software version: 08-05-09
Language version: 003
Type: N78
Type: RM-235
I have seen this same bug reported elsewhere on the web. But input from this place would be good.
Thanks for the help. Regards.

I did test the antennas with GPS/WLAN and I always got 100% signal there. So the antennas are not a issue in this case.
I do believe that Nokia N78 and Nokia N79 use almost identical hardware and software.This software bug is quite annoying.

Hi kleen120,
Welcome to the forum!
Do you mean the phone is now stuck on the Nokia screen and won't go through? Note that using third party apps to restore the phone's software will void its warranty, but you can still try the steps shown at this link to further isolate the issue: Troubleshooter for Nokia Lumia 800 - My phone doesn't work as expected.
Note that this link is for a specific region; it's best to try searching the troubleshooter page in your local Nokia website. Check this link for the Nokia global support page: Nokia Wayfinder. This link might also help you find a local Nokia Care Point in case the troubleshooting steps didn't work. However, charges will apply for out-of-warranty devices if repair is possible.
Let us know if you need further help.

Hi !
About point #4, yes, I know ... thanks anyway.
I have a great news for Nokia guys. I deleted all jobs alarm... I mean, I'm not using N78 alarms, and the date issue seem solved !
Unfortunately this is only a workaround, I'm using the alarm of my great N73
I'm an Analyst/Programmer Senior... Nokia, please, check your alarm application that most probably caused too much problem.
Thanks.

PS
I found many fault on this SW release; related to the background light, phone keypad lock, keys that seem locked... etc etc... this is the worst update released.

Nokia N78 speaker problem

I bought a nokia n78 2 months ago. I realised after a month that one of the speakers was not working. After 2 months even the last working speaker went dead.
i tried reformating and even software update nothing improved.
What can be done in this circumstance

I had same problem with one of my speakers. Service is required, they should repair it to you under normal warranty circumstances.

You are always advised to use full battery when resetting device to try to avoid such issues, and almost certainly visit to a Nokia Care facility required to re-install device software required now.

Equium A300D-16C. not booting after shutdown.

Please, this is a problem i seem not to understand. I have been using my Equium A300d-16c laptop without no problem for over a year until yesterday's evening. i was installing a software(nokia PC suite) which prompted for a restart. the shutting down was normal and for it to restart was a problem. it displays nothing but a blank screen. It is evident it does not boot as when i press the power button it goes of immediately. Only the power indicator is on. Another thing i notice is that the DVD-ROM reads any disc put inside but there is no display of any sort.
My first reaction was that it may be overheating, so i cleaned the cooling vents and blew away dusts from all compartments. but still the problem persists. Please i seek to know what may be the problem before taking it to for repairs. Help Needed. Thanks.

Thanks. There is nothing displayed on the screen. it does not seem to boot into anything, as the powere goes off immediately when the power button is pressed. I have tried to change the ram modules, but still the same problem. i dont know what kind of hardware failure could cause this as it was working fine untill the shutdown. Thanks for the concern.

JFTR, that's a soft reset. A hard reset is achieved by powering on the phone with the '*', '3' and 'multimedia' keys pressed down.
What you're probably thinking of as a soft reset (*#7780#) is just a "revert to factory default settings". Nothing is formatted.
