Nokia 6680 doesn't startup the OS

5 replies · 2,693 views · Started 11 October 2005

My Nokia 6680 shows after switching it on only the Nokia logo, which disappear and after some seconds appears again and again. The handset couldn't be switched off with any key. Do anyone know is that a bug and how could I solve the problem? Is where a way to reset the Nokia 6680?

Thank you for any help.

Pull off the battery and see what happens.

Hello, maybe i am not sure! But this could mean a s/w failure. Cos i've had this problem in the 3650! And it was a s/w fail! Hope this helps.

bye!

I experienced EXACTLY the same problem last Friday (when I was playing with time settings). It did not boot anymore. Took it to the servis, they identified "memory card failure". They removed memory card, the phone booted up normally. I left the phone there, they replaced memory card and upgraded phone firmware. It works now (for the past 4 days 😊. So, take it to your nearest Nokia servis

Thank you very much, the information has helped me a lot, after taking the memory card out of the Nokia 6680 I could start the Nokia 6680 again and everything was there except the files that I had stored on the memory card.

I will go to the Nokia Service as soon as I can.

😊

hi there, I've noticed that this guy had the same problem as me. Problem is, taking out/swapping/leaving out the mmc card does not do anything for me.

I did a backup of all my numbers before I went on holiday (phew) but whileI was away, I got a number off someone and I cannot retrieve it, is there anyway of geeting this number before it has to be sent to a service centre for a software refresh (an lose the number)

Cheers
