Problems unlocking nokia n95

I want to unlock my nokia N95 from 3. They told me it will cost £15, which is fine. They took my IMEI number and then put me on hold for a few minutes before telling me they did not have a code available and someone would call me within 15 days. Are they for real? I'm cancelling my contract with them, are they just being awkward?

Firstly, BB5 phones can be unlocked by code as can ANY phone, unlockcodes.ie supplies codes.
I've personally unlocked my Nokia e51 (WHICH 'IS' A BB5 PHONE) using a code i got for them,
how do you thing the networks unlock your phone?? by code!!
so please dont speak unless you know what your talking about!
ANY PHONE CAN BE UNLOCKED BY CODE, trust me i know i work in the industry and does most of my friends and family.
Secondly, we have sent many customer to unlockcodes.ie and gsm solutions over the years to unlock thier phones and they were all happy with the service.
As the saying goes 'you cant keep all customers happy all of the time'
Our shop alone processes over 150 codes a month with unlockcodes.ie and the fact is that its a great service.
Lastly, the article you refer to was published in 2003, over 5 years ago, and i remember it well. the fact is that back then unlocking phones was a 'grey area', and because gsmsolutions was the first company to offically offer a mobile phone unlocking service they got a lot of problems. even though it was perfectly legal.
In fact, i talked to an employess from gsmsolutions a few years ago and they told me that the mirror newspaper actually printed a full quarter page advert a few weeks after the article for gsm solutions as way of saying sorry after the mirror found out that phone unlocking was pefrectly legal. the mirror should of done thier research.
gsmsolutions stood thier ground and and now ireland longest running unlocking company, and this is the reason why most networks use thier services and recommend them all the time as we do.

  • Who can solve iSync problem with Nokia N95? (I use the Nokia plug already)

    Hello
    Since I bought my new cool Mac:, I sync my N95 with iSync and the Nokia N95 plug-in. Thinking at first that is works flawlessly (as other members here seem to think as well) I later found out, that if I make changes to any calendar or "to do" description! on either the N95 or the Mac it syncs, but only up until a certain number of characters. If I exceed this number, the description on the phone will simply be cut off - in the iCal it still fully appears though.
    Rather surprising, since when syncing with a PC via the Nokia PC suite there is no such an issue. All my often lengthy descriptions are fully put on the phone. And if I sync back there are no problems either. So I guess it has to do with the iSync protocol or this Nokia N95 iSync plug-in? Any ideas, solutions...? Any help greatly appreciated!

    The flex cable is damaged. Some years back when I had a Nokia N95 8GB the flex cable was damaged and for a few days the screen was showing strange colours at the display and eventually the screen became black. I went to a local repair shop and I replaced the flex cable and what I noticed was that the flex cable that it had no proximity sensor on it so I told the technician to remove the proximity sensor on the original one and replace it with the new flex cable. Another thing I discovered was that after fitting the flex cable and returning the cover the front camera was not in its usual position so the technician had to do some modifications to get it back to its normal position and after a few months it was damaged and this time I went to Nokia Care Centre and replaced the flex cable for a small fee and what I noticed was that the flex cable that I previously bought was a fake cable. The one bought from Nokia Care Centre had its proximity sensor and when the cover was returned the camera was in its exact position the same as it was with the original flex cable. What I wanted to say is that please beware of fake flex cables on the market and I suggest that you buy it from an authorised Nokia Dealer.

  • Problem with nokia n95 lcd. Black screen and flex ...

    Hi i have a nokia n95. I have it since its first year in the market. I am very pleased with the phone but the last month sudenly when i slide to open the phone's screen was not responding. The actual phone was working great. I could receive calls and make calls, listen to music and everything else. The screen was black though. As i am a technician with experience on iPhones mostly i thought that the lcd was damaged. So i ordered one from the internet and 2 days ago i received it. When i installed it i had the same problem. The phone works but the screen not. Then i completely dissaseblied the phone for one more time and i noticed something that i hadn't before at the flex cable. The flex cable consists of 2 flat cables. Well the one is completely broken. Take a look at the following pictures and please tell me you opinion. I am 99.9% sure that this is the cause of the lcd problem. I want to tell me if i should buy the flex cable. I can't go to a nokia center because the phone is out of the warranty over 2 years now. So the only option is to change it on my own.

  • Problem connecting Nokia N95 to Audi MMI via Audi ...

    Hello again!
    My dad has recently upgraded his phone from his old-ish Motorola RAZR to the N95 and now can't connect properly to the car. He bought the handsfree set when he still had the Nokia 6310, so it's designed for that, but his next phone, the Motorola had no problem synching with the car and everything worked fine. But now, with the new one, it only works as a headset of sorts. The phonebook is inaccessible, and the ringing is only heard when you make the initial connection, and even that the standard ring ring, not the mp3 he has as his ringtone. And from the second auto-connect afterwards, the MMI only mutes the radio, and makes no other sound.
    I've paired my Nokia 6280 with it and it works as it should, addressbook, ringtone and all.
    Is this the problem of the N95 not supporting the old version of Bluetooth, like i've been reading on the forum and can't be resoloved by any other means than getting another phone or can it be solved by a simple firmware upgrade?
    Also, i've tried googling for UHV 1733 and haven't had a single hit. I am confused. :?

    I don't know personally but it has been discusse before somewhere else. Try this link:

  • Problem with nokia n95

    i bougt in February 2010 a Nokia n 95 (code IMEI) that in October went out of work. I brought the telephone to the Nokia Assistance Center in Modena, Italy, where I live, but, after two weeks the answer was that the phone was rusty inside and therefore out of warranty!
    Well, I am a doctor, I use the phone only for work in my office and I don't even bring it when I go on holidays... I asked clarification to ContactCentre.Europe since the 20th December 2010, but until now no answer.
    The question is: did you ever received any similar remarks about Nokia N95?
    Thank You

  • Hi all problem with nokia n95

    Just got a nokia n95 for xmas yeah lol.
    But i am trying to update it. Ok so i have pc suite already so i plug it in via usb cable given. And i get this message.
    the name is already in use as either a service name or a service display name".
    It did this with my old phone nokia 6270. I can only use the phone in storage mode right now.
    I am using windows vista. Any help would be great thanks.

    Hi gooseuk
    Unfortunately as O2 have been incentivising remaining stock of N95 on v12 software it has been speculated that v20.0.015 will probably never be released under this particular product code, which can be found on label under battery.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • Nokia n95 8gb problem

    HI i have a nokia n95 8gb and it enters in the gallery without me pressing any button.As soon as i unlock it it enters in the gallery.I can't even take a picture or enter the contacts because it kepps entering in the gallery at images and videoes.I tried updating the soft and resetting the phone but the problem persisted.What should i do?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The only thing I could think of is that the Key that's next to the shutter key, the one that has what looks like a Play key is pressed in.
    This key causes the Gallery to start and show the last picture taken. It may have malfunctioned.
    You would need to take it to a service point or repair technician to take a look at it.

  • Nokia N95-3 Screen Problem!!

    I recently bought a Nokia N95-3 from Amazon and this is the 6 day that I have it. Last night it was almost fully charged. I left it atop one of my drawers and haven't touch it until about 10 minutes ago. I tried to unlock it and notice that it was turned off! I was wondering why it had turned itself off. I go into my room to charge it and it says low battery! I was wondering how that happened since when I left it last night no programs were running and the backlit light was off. And on the bottom right side of the screen I notice a little something. First I thought it was a smudge, then a pencil mark. I tried to get it off using a microfiber cloth that I use for my camera's screen and that didn't work. It looks like a heart moniter black line about 1 cm long. I have been very careful with my phone and I haven't scratched it,dropped it, or used it carelessly. I even use the little pouch it came in to protect it. Here are some pics of it. Tell me if I should contact Amazon or Nokia! Thanks!

    I have the same problem too. I got 2 growing (and shrinking) black lines near the top. The problem started to happen a few hours after buying it. The weird thing is, the 2 lines grows and shrinks on daily basis. However, when they shrink, they always come back to the full length afterwards. I think this is more of a software related issue than hardware.
    Sending an email to Nokia customer service didn't help. They just didn't reply back.
    I will try to take it back to the store (CompUSA) for a replacement. It's very frustrating. Anyone know how to resolve this issue?

  • Nokia N95 send and recieve text problems

    I have just bought the Nokia N95 and am not able to send or receive text messages. I can make calls, so I know that the service provider is correct.
    I also phoned the help service of my provider who took me through the settings of network selection but it still won’t send or receive messages.
    My messages I write go to out box but just display as failed. They also just display the number for the contact and not the name.
    I don’t yet have a micro SD card installed so am reliant on the SIM and internal memory. From what I see the memory is not full either.
    Am I missing something?
    I’ve done this for settings: Main menu – Tools – Settings – Phone – Network – Operator selection – Options – Change – Manual – then it Searches – I choose anything other than my provider such as O2 or Tmobile and it says not allowed – then I choose my provider which it gives me confirmation of my home provider. I switch off the phone and then back on again so I am on the correct network. Still can’t send or receive any texts.
    Has anyone had this happen to them and do you have the solution?
    Many thanks

    Your message center is provably not configured correctly. Go to message setting then message center. Ask your provider what is the message center number or get someone who have the same provider as you are & note down the message center & put it in your phone. If the message center is correct, you'll provably have software problem. Backup your phone & format your phone. Codes are in the sticky tread for codes.

    If your phone didn't come with pre-installed applications on your phone, you may try formatting the memory card from your phone, and see if that solves the issue.
    For the other case, you may wish to backup your memory card contents, and then format it.
    I think formatting should resolve the problem.

  • Nokia N95 8gb problems - freezing, fuzzy screen et...

    Ok so been using the Nokia N95 8gb phone for about a week now and noticed that there is a tendency for the phone to freeze for up to 10 seconds like when opening other things such as Inbox etc. The problems mainly occur when the phone is slid shut, then when resliding the phone open the phone freezes or sometimes screen stays black until battery is taken out!
    When the phone is slid shut sometimes the screen goes fuzzy in places aswell like a TV with no reception. The text and theme on the phone sometimes goes a dodgy colour aswell like a negative photo and sometimes even goes back to front and the wrong way round?? Anyone else had similar problems or knows what this is??

    Its unlikely to have the same issue after doing a software upgrade, it could be some application on your memory card or the simcard .
    You may try the steps below
    - A soft reset by keying in *#7780# when on standby - This will not delete any data but will restore all the settings back to default.
    If that does not help then you may wanna try doing a hard reset by keying in *#7370# when on standby - This will reformat the phone. DO NOT FORGET TO DO A BACK UP AS THIS WILL ERASE YOUR ENTIRE PHONE MEMORY.
    The security code by default is 12345
    Also would be best to reformat your memory card and sim cards well as there might be some applications in there which is causing your phone to lag.
    Mark me a KUDOS if this has helped...
