Restore Contacts To Nokia 6288

I was wondering how you restore just the contacts list to the mobile Nokia 6288?
It doesn't seem to let you choose and is greyed out.
I don't really want to restore everything.
If not then is there a way to reset the sim card back to its original listing, like when you first get the sim card?
Thanks.

I'm unsure jusy what you mean by the contacts list being greyed out. However, if the settings are to use the phone (and/or phone and SIM) then contacts you created were probably saved to phone memory and not to the SIM card.

Nokia 6288 Contacts Sync Issue

Hi Everybody,
Just got the latest PC Suite software + Outlook 2003 sync nicely to my Nokia 6288. But one issue i found is that i'll get an extra "space" in the phone between the Fast and Last Name, ie:
My Outlook contact reads
John Smith
My Phone reads
John Smith
Anyone has experience this? TaTa!

I am having trouble with my contacts list. Have copied all contacts from SIM to phone and vice versa, but approximately 100 of my contacts are missing from list (Yes, I have phone and SIM memory selected.)
The contacts must be somewhere though, as when I enter the number manually and dial, the contact's name comes up!
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks

Have you checked if the missing names are duplicated ?

How to restore contact nokia 6700c

how do i retrieve back my deletd contact from nokia 6700c?
i dont have a back up file. can it be done?

How were they lost?
Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air - with an Apple iCloud account depending on the iOS version your iPhone is running, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail email accounts.
Contacts are also included with the iPhone's backup which requires restoring the iPhone from the backup if the backup has not been overwritten since the contacts were lost on the iPhone.

Nokia 6288 white screen

ok, i just called my mum, then 20 minutes later i looked at my phone at the screen went totally white. Its done this a few times before and fixed itself after 30 secs. Although this time it didnt.It is completely white!. everytime i switch it on there is just a white screen, flashes for a bit and turns itself off, so i cant actualy get on it!
does anyone know hoe to restore factory settings without going onto the phone?!
this is the second time ive had trouble with this phone. its ridiculous

Hey,
There has been a massive number of Nokia 6288's with this problem or similar in that the screen was flashing white, the problem was so large we were considering the flashing white screen as a sellin point !
Any handsets we've had with this issue just needed a software upgrade, you can do this yourself through the Nokia download and support service or by dropping it to a Nokia Service Centre or back to the place of purchase where they phone may be sent for software upgrading which generally takes 5-7 working days.
Hopefully Helpful,

Restore don't restore contact, etc on my 6233! :(

hi, can some one please help me.
I backed up my 6233 using the latest version of PC suite (everything was backed up without problem).
When i tried to restore everything back, after the nokia service centre updated the firmware on my phone from 3.9x to 4.91, it won't restore the contacts, messages, callender or bookmarks (all the important stuff), so it's completely useless, the only thing it restored is the user files which i could not care less about!
Please help me, as i NEED my contacts at the very least!!
Thank you.
p.s. the backup lot is included below: ####################################################

btw is there any way i can restore callender and messages? or at least view callender from the backup file so i can restore manually!
thank you.

Restoring backup from nokia 6230 to nokia 6233

Hi there.
I am using Windows XP SP2 with Nokia Connectivity Cable CA53 and PC Suite version 6.80.22
My problem is when I backup my 6230 via USB and select phone memory only , it backs up fine aside from warning me that certain items are content protected.
When I restore this backup to my 6233 via USB and select restore abd then select the option to restore contacts , calendar , etc and then OK , Content Copier tells me that restoring contents from another phone model to the connected phone may result in all the information not being restored , once I click ok on this , it starts the restore process.
What happens then is that after 28% , Content Copier tells me that restoring the backup was aborted due to inadequate space on the phone , and that only partial content was transferred.
I then browse through my contacts on the 6233 and see that its the same as whats on the 6230 BUT I don't have any of the messages that was on my 6230 transferred to the new phone.
Any ideas or help or suggestions or what , I need exactly what is on my 6230 to be on my 6233.

This is tricky and from what I have learned so far I suspect this may be a current bad feature of PC Suite. I think it is so overly conserned about not overwriting anything on the new phone, that it is very picky of the memory availability (or something )
Anyways, so is your new phone totally empty or does it contain already data that you have put there ? Would you be able to empty the "target" phone and try the restore then, if that helps ? (for example, if you have images, move them to PC, if you have calendar items, add those to the old phone first, also contacts you can syncronise to PC first and then later when restore is successful(hopefully), you can resyncronise the additional contacts to your target phone.
If you can empty the target phone, then run factory settings to it, battery boot and then run a fresh backup from "source" phone and try restore.
Really interested in hearing will you get this sorted...

Nokia 6288 Exif data not captured

Bummer! We just bought 2 nokia 6288 phones and come to find out that the Exif data: Date Picture Taken is not captured. Is there a firmware update or something I can download? I wonder if I'm doing something wrong. My firmware version is 05.92 07-09-06 RM-78
I've had several different digital cameras and they all store the date the picture was taken. This can be very useful since file create/modification date aren't always reliable. I also have some php scripts I use to post my pictures on a web site, and they make use of the Exif date the picture was taken.
The following definition for Exif does say that that the data may include (then the list). Note that the date/time the picture was taken is normally considered the most important element (I think). Anyway, is there some way to get around this??? Any clues appreciated!
Quote:
EXIF stands for Exchangeable Image File Format. It was developed by the Japanese Electronics Industry Development Association (JEIDA) in an effort to simplify and standardize the exchange of data between imaging devices and software. Exif is a variation of JPEG, used by almost all digital cameras to record extra interchange information to image files as they are taken. The type of information stored in a file varies by camera model, but it can include such things as date and time a photo was taken, resolution, camera settings used for the shot, amount of compression applied, color information, whether or not the flash was fired, shutter speed, name of the camera owner, and so on.
The only Exif fields I see being captured are Camera Model.

Hi,
There is a new firmware update available for this model - V6.10.
But I am not sure about the improvements in this new release for this particular issue. Please contact ur nearest Nokia authorized service center, in case if u need a firmware update.
cheers,

Nokia 6288 dead!

Hi,
My Nokia 6288 mobile phone has all of a sudden would freeze, immediately after it has been switched on. This began to happen after it played a song, and everything froze so I simply resetted it and now it remains frozen everytime I restart the phone. What has happened?! Do I need a new phone? I have a lot of precious messages in there =P
Thanks in advance!

The only thing I can think of is to do a hard reset but the problem is that it might delete your contacts which is what seems to be most important to you. I suggest you take it back to a nokia care point or where you bought it for repairs

Can not transfer contacts from Nokia 1020 Windows ...

Can not transfer contacts from Nokia 1020 Windows Phone to Mercedes C. Windows Phone states that it is only voice connection when trying to transfer data, and if sharing, Mercedes will not show up as bluetooth device at all. However Merceds show Noika as a device. I tried other phones and they work, smart phones and not smart phones. What to do?

Nokia 6288 doesn't retain settings after reboot

Hi, i've a problem with a Nokia 6288 that after each reboot
does not retain settings regarding "Normal" profile and background. If i turn off the phone, when i turn it back on it reverts to blank backround and "nokia tune" ringtone and all other settings to default.
I already tried to reset it to factory default but had no luck.
Also tried reflashing firmware with nokia software updater but the problem still remains.
There is a way for "hard resetting" it to factory default?
Regards
Luca

How can I restore contacts from Backup Assistant

My contact list has been corrupted. I have been using Backup Assistant for some time and want to restore my contacts from a previous backup.
Verizon seems to have changed BA since the last time I used it and the only function seems to be to take my corrupted contact list from my phone and store it. Any suggestions on recovering my non-corrupted contact list?

Here is a reply from a VW CS regarding the same question a few months back:
Click this link Backup Assistant (sign in) to check if contacts are available. You may sync directly from the site, by simply clicking sync on the right hand side (above contacts).
You may also try to sync by adding your G-mail account to the your device then go to Settings > Accounts & Sync > Ensure Sync is on for G-mail account. You may also select Auto-sync.

Inactive memory is your file system cache.
The cache is trying to save you from expensive disk I/O (where expensive means in time and battery life). Running that disk a lot drains your battery faster, and it is orders of magnitude slower than data already in RAM. Unused RAM is a waste of money.
Is your system running slow? If so, then start looking at all those 3rd party additions you have loaded.
Do you really need "2" virtual machines? VirtualBox and Parallels?
As mentioned above, get rid of the anti-virus software. It is just eating system resources.
Do you need MacFUSE. It has been responsible for performance issues for some users (all of which may depend on what kind of file system format you are trying access).
Do you need to run your own Samba server?
You have OpenVPN and TunnelBrick. Are they both needed?
