Volume on alert tones 6500 slide

Hi I've recently changed from a 6300 to 6500 slide and overall I'm really pleased with it. However, the volume for the message alert tones is really loud. On the 6500 it the volume is really loud and it had the added benefit of flashing. The software on the 6500 is V04.84. Anybody any idea how I can increase the message alert volume. I have the ringtone volume set at maximum and this is great.

Somewhat embarrasing, but I figure post this so others can use it - have figured it out... open the gallery of alert tones and start playing them, then use the volume adjustment keys on the side of the phone to increase their volume while they are playing. This will then affect the volume they play at when actually selected as the alert tone.

Why can't I get alert tones when I send or receive email. I checked Sounds and volumes are at max.

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

6500 slide - how to have the message tone silent b...

So frustrating.
I've tried all teh profiles and carefully made sure that the message tone is off, and then what do you know - beep beep !
I work in an open plan office and this is not a good thing to have happen.
Never had this problem with any phone before.
Reading on here - I think it may be a software problem and I just need to connect and update it ?
Can anyone confirm that they have had the same problem and it was fixed like this ?
Thanks !

further to my earlier posts I have now been advised by my providers technical department (and I must say very pleased that someone actually spoke sense to me and was very helpful, thanks "3" Repairs) that the problem is a "known issue" with the 6500 slide. Apparently some pin on the back is meant to touch something on the phone memory like a reset button, but often it does not, so any profile changes you make are forgotten and it resets to default. So why have Nokia not resolved this?? All very annoying when your siting in a meeting thinking phone on silent, then suddenly, all singing and dancing!!!!!!

6500 Slide No Low Battery Warning Tone

Hi,
Does anybody know if the 6500 slide has a low battery warning tone function? If so how can I turn it on?
Thanks,

So it won't harm the battery to regularly charge it up when the battery level isn't at a low charge?
Yes. Ironically, modern batteries liked to be always charged - at least partially.

I always thought it was best to charge it fully only when it's nearly empty?
That is applicable and advisable for old batteries - early Nokia batteries - and especially NiMH and NiCd's. But not for modern batteries at the present.
Also, can it do harm to charge for say 30 minutes and not until it's full?
No. It won't pose any harm. As I've said, modern batteries like to be charged partially.
Hope this helps
Cheers

6500 slide issues (list it here)

I hope to create a single thread to list and discuss all issues users are having with their 6500 slide.
Let me start with mine:
V 0.380
10-09-07
RM-240
Variant: 255.02
1. sometimes the buttons (numbers or options) becomes unrepsonsive; give it a wait and it works again.
2. Ringtone and Message Alert tone goes back to default; or display some weird alphabet+numbers after a while. And i had to manually set back my favourite ringtone for both calls and message. This happens to the default 'General' and renaming MyStyle1.
3. do you find the battery lasting? not for me.

I got my 6500 slide 3 days ago and I have the same firmware version as you - as well as some of the same problems.
The screen/buttons hang, and I have to wait or press the end button repeatedly to get back to the main screen and start all over again. A few times I had to repeatedly push the unlock + * buttons to unlock the phone. I also have problems viewing my contact info in the PC Suite...
And I have scratches on the "2" key on the number pad. Is this just "wear" or is it a defect, as I see this problem reported by many others. I'd like to know so that I don't look like I have OCD when I go to the store for an exchange.

6500 Slide terrible sound quality

Hello,
i just replaced my SE k810 for a Nokia 6500 slide. The problem with the K810 was battery which only lasted for one day. So i thought i`d give Nokia a try. Compared to the SonyEricsson phone, however the sound quality in Nokia is terrible. When i dial a number and press the call button the phone starts buzzing in my ear and the buzzing continues throughout the call. The sound that i hear is metallic and some of the tones seem to be missing at all.
Is this a common problem with this phone? I already returned the phone back to the service but as far as i know all they do there is updating the software, which does not fix anything. 6500 slide owners please comment on the problem.
TY

I agree, the sound quality, among other things make this the worst phone I have ever had. Nothing works on this stupid phone and no one wants to fix it because the say that it has been damaged by rain. Well, that is not strange when it is open in the top ( you charge the phone from the top, stupid feature). So I have a phone that I can't use...

Newest software version for 6500 slide?

Hi..I just got this 6500 slide, at it comes with the new version 6.60 which means there's no slide tone
Anyway to get them back?

Hi,
FYI, every tone will ring soft to loud meaning the volume will climb up every second. This is to avoid daze when using it in public places.

Nokia 6500 Slide SIlent mode makes noises

I have a Nokia 6500 Slide, and whenever I put it onto silent mode, it still makes a noise (i.e a standard message tone) to inform me that I have received a message/call. I go to profiles and select everything to OFF, but it still continues to do this.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?
Thanks in advance

Try typing *#7780* and default code 12345. Backup anything you want to keep, usually restoring settings doesn't delete anything, but better to be safe than sorry!
What might have happened is you had put your phone on silent mode, and then later on changed the ringtone whilst still on silent mode.

UCCX 8.02 - call volume on the tone for auto answer

I have UCCX r8.02. Our agents are configured to have auto answer and calls drop into their headset, the agent set does not ring. The agents hear a tone and are alerted of the call before the caller is connected. Is there anyway to turn up the volume on the tone the agent hears?

I don't believe so. I mean, outside of turning up the headset volume. Of course this is not a UCCX question, rather a CUCM question. There's a separate forum for that, and those guys may know.
The hacker in me would root the CUCM and search for the audio file on the disk and modify it. But, that's more than most will risk for a simple audio increase.

How to adjust the volume of the tone you hear when dial a number

Any idea how to adjust the volume of the tone you hear when you dial phone numbers?
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

There are no sounds except on the handset earpiece for the dialer buttons when you dial a number; is this what you are speaking of? All sound settings are found under Prefs, Sounds & Alerts, then choose Ring Tones, Phone Alerts, Calendar, Messaging, System, then choose the settings you desire.

how to format nokia 6500 slide ? my nokia 6500 slide cannot open open got sound nokia tones and after nokia logo hand it off by it self got battery ?
can same one help me how 2 format nokia 6500slide ?

It's not possible to format this model yourself. Your only options are "restore factory defaults" but the phone needs to be working to do this.
If you are unable to use it then it needs to go to a nokia care point for repair.
