hi all,
i got a 6600 from dubai , its made in finland so i thought it will be good . Now after 3 weeks a problem started . When my cell is in stand by mode , i.e. when i m not using it , and when i see it after some 2 hrs , its turned off . Then when i press the power switch the cell starts , and the battery also shows full , as it was before .
I dont know wat is the problem , i contacted Nokia by email . They hav no answers .
Can anyone gimme any idea

i read on some site some code *# somethin # .... shd i use it to format .... and if i format will the operating system 'symbian' remain in the cell ... if not how will i install it ...
what do u think can be the fault .... as i dont consider Nokia to be a bad company

Formattin although is a solution ... its not a cure

hii this is soft format
you should have try hard format

1 transfer your data into your pc.
2 switch off your phone.
3 press green button + * button +3 button together
and then start the phone don't remove your hand from the butttons
4 and when u see formatting on the white scrreen leave it

be ensure that u battery is full before doing this

for more detail read the formatting thread.
