    I bet when it restarts you dont need to re-enter your pin. Its not fully shutting down. I would clean the phone a bit. The 6300 is not a work horse of a phone. It has a very small memory which you possibly have full. Try clearing it a bit, transferring stuff onto the memory card and also redo the firmware. Text message cause a lot of slowness to phones so delete regularly. Your phone is just being put under pressure and does to reboot to try clear itself.

    Would you consider getting a card. Card Option €5.20 delivered. You could transfer any music pictures etc to the card. Also dont order above a 2GB card for this phone i dont think it will support it.

    Thats crap. Lucky your only using it as a temp. Are you using the V6 firmware? *#0000# will tell you.

    Unfortunately you cant do a hard reset with the 6300, you would need to bring it to a nokia care shop.

    V6 was where the problems began. I cant think of anything much else you can do. Go to a nokia care shop if you can,,or redo the V7 firmware but dont do a backup of settings.
