    have you got it on dual mode... ie.. is it on GSM/3G if so switch to GSM.

    Also there is a Nokia service centre in town in Dawson street they will reflash it with a 3 hour turn around for free.

    I assume it is in warranty as they came with a 24 Month one

    all those symbian phones are such a pain in the hole, feature packed, but just totally unrelable

    try that dual mode trick,

    you might bave to try a full format google how to do that


    else you have to bring it into those stupid ba$tards on Dawon St, they'll probalby update with the latest software (but if you check it will be your old firmware again)

    taking no responsibiltly for this, your on your own mate.....

    from here http://www.imserba.com/articles/9/1/How-to-format-your-nokia-series-60

    1. Make sure you have at least 3/4 charge of battery power left.
    2. Backup your contacts list and personal files to MMC memory card.
    3. Switch-off your phone and REMOVE UR MMC!.
    4. Press and hold 3 keys : Green dial key, * Star key, no. 3 key on keypad and then press the power on/off to swtich on the phone. Remember, do not let go the 3 press and hold keys until you see a formatting word screen show!
    5. After a few minutes when the Full phone formatting completed, your phone will back to original system and factory settting

    ok i did that but no fomatting thing came up

    but it did format it and everything was back to the way it first was

    but still no coverage

    thanks for the help

    but my guess is that this must have to be flashed then

    now the nokia centre is there any other place is the noone that can do it for me like then and there

    it's deffo not some software bug so!


    must be hardware problem, will probably need to be sent off for repair, them idiots on dawson st will look after ya


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 527 ✭✭✭madmike18


    well i did get coverage the first time i put my sim card in it for like a few seconds

    it must be the the coverage chip thingy is gone and i only get coverage in high coverage areas

    real high!!!!!!

    so i just bring into them and they will fix it

    can i not just bring it into the place in sandyford

    mobile phone repair company

    that is where all phones in dublin go to to get fixed

    but they will try and charger some how they always do

    when it is meant to me free
