Any Ideas..........,

guys please help me out.

during the weekend i tried updating my fone from 3.23 to 4.14.
i did what i was told and i didn't disconnect the cable and was preventing it from getting loose because it says in the advisory that if it gets disconnected my phone might not work anymore.

but then when i was at 25% of the update (i finished download of 62.3 MB), someone texted me and i was on vibrate!

then the computer said my fone was disconnected! OMG!!!

my fone died. well it didn't respond to any keypresses so i tried turning it off but to no avail. so idecided to take out the battery. but when i tried swithching it on it still didn't work.

i had it repaired at a local cellphone repair outlet.

do you think it can still be fixed? my friend told me that it can be with flash but i just wanna ask you guys coz you're like experts on this.

damn! that was hard earned money going down the drain. see i don't have a dad and my mom can't work so i pretty much carry all the burden at home. i work for the whole family and send my sister to school. that phone was my christmas gift to myself, first thing i bought after a year of hardwork.

i just feel so bad man. please, any words of help guys?

I have Nokia 3250. I want to use Realplayer also for playing music. I have a querry.

When I play music with the std software provided...I am able to lock my phone or run the music in background, however when I play music on Realplayer I am unable to run it in background or lock my phone. Is there any method by which I can do this?

I just purchased my nokia 3250 yesterday and i cannot work out a few things, i was hoping you could help me out.
The first problem is with the Bluetooth, i cant receive files because it is saying that there is no space on the phones internal memory, i have plenty of room on the memory card, how do i set it so the files i am receiving through Bluetooth to go onto the memory card instead of the phone memory?

My second query is about music transferring, when i transfer my music onto my memory card, it only shows up in the gallery function, and not the proper music player, how do i make it so it transfers to the memory card but shows up in the proper music player?
Please reply

Thank u very much for you help, Daniel

can i somehow install the nokia 6270 default music player or n70 mplayer on my 3250 as 3250 is not as good as 6270 in headphones or earphones

I have a 3250, its a great phone. I had no problems with it aside from the delay in sms sending, but i found a way to solve the problem. I just reformat my phone once or twice every month using the *#7370# den typing my default security code w/c is 12345. But the problem is, my 3250 keyboard is broken. The repair shops in my city don't have a 3250 board replacement and that sucks. Now i'm having sms sending delays again and my phone hangs. i lost my 1, 2, 3, on my keypad, that means i cant type numbers 1-3, and letters from A-F. The problem is when i want to reformat it again, i cant type the 12345 on the security code. I was having problems on typing *#7370# but i found a way on doing that, i just use the copy/paste function. The problem is when the security code field pops out, i cant use the paste function. Do you know a way on how i could solve this? I got an idea, maybe a third party software could do it using a computer... Like softwares that could reset a 3250 phone or something? or connect my 3250 to the computer then use a software that will enable me to do a real time dialing or inputing numbers using the computer.. do you know a way? tnx...

I want the complete flash drive files of N91 (drive Z). plzzzzz post it to me on my mail: [email][email protected][/email]. you can use the xplore 0.92 version software to copy the files. the software's trial version is avialable www.lonelycatgames.com. plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help me.

i guess your sis installer is the one provided at nokia's website.
feed.sis there is corrupt, it's only 2kb in size.

i've attached a working file. it's sized 188kb.
i found it at a russian forum. it's a working file..

you can find firmware update at nokia's site.
try googling for SUPER converter, it's free and it can handle almost any format. real player can read MP4 file with MP4 format video and AAC format audio.
try using the latest Nokia PC Suite to transfer music, u can RIP cd's.

when I send messege my phone hang for a1 minuit/

I tried to restore my phoneto defult setting but the same problem appear again>>

after that I solve it by formatting the phone(not memory card)

how to format>>> turn off ur phone press those buttons (3+*+ call button) and keep holding it while u turn on the phone (dont forgit to keep hold that three buttons) until u see formatting messege,,,

wait until it finish and enjoy

I would like to reset my phone to see if it will solve a few problems.

I would also like instructions on how to take apart the phone. I think one problem (it not reading my memory card even though my computer reads it fine - and the phone at one point did read it fine), will require me to take the phone apart to solve.

Thanks!

Hello pple,
I use a Nokia 3250 phone too, recently i heard a firmware upgrade is available on the internet for its users to update d phone.
So i downloaded the Nokia Software Updater tool from Nokia Website.. but my problem now is dat when i connected the software to the internet it showed a "04.14 update available" but the file is like 70Mb, -Thats going to take like enternity..
So I will like to know if one can just download the firmware directly frm somewhere(using Download Managers -to make it Faster) then install it to d Phone Direct??

Also, I want to know if FlashLite Applications(like Games etc) are available for Nokia 3250, and can u provide links where i can get them.
Thanks.
Hayz.
