9300i doesn't pickup calls.

HI all.
I have a problem where calls sometimes take upto 15 seconds for my nokia 9300i to pickup.

The phone will ring immediately, but when i press pickup, the little phone symbol appears next to the incoming call to indicate a pickup but the call doesn't actually pickup for a variable amount of time.

Sometimes so long that the caller hangs up.

When i make a call it works flawlessly.

Can anyone help with this problem?

Thanks, Stu.

Same here, supplier did a software update , didn't help. Not pikking up calls is getting a bigger problem by the day, should be a key feature for a phone....

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

9300i is too slow and so 9300 and 9500, because they are based on Old Symbian OS 7.0 and doesn't have fast cpu.

I have the same problem too.

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

I got the same problem... It's really getting a big problem because I sometimes miss my business calls...

It occures often with numbers which i call a lot with. New numbers are mostly no problem.

I've send my problem to the helpdesk.. It hasn't been awnsered yet. Hope they will come up with a update. Untill then I don't recommend anyone to buy the 9300i.

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

I just received a message from nokia helpline.nl It said: De laatste software-versie voor uw toestel is de 6.27. The last software-version for your mobile is 6.27. Anyone with this update and knows if it works? Where can I check the last updates?

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

Try formatting the device.

Just pointing out that formatting WILL delete all data, so backup first!

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

But I guess resetting doesn't update your firmware :smileywink:. Can we update it ourself or do we need to take our phone to the service point (One day without 9300i)?

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

I was having this problem with my 9300i too, as well as strange problems dialling international numbers. I would receive calls and madly press the green button to no avail for what felt like ages (10-15 seconds sounds about right). The phone was also refusing to place calls to most international numbers.

It turned out in my case the SIM card was old/tired/fried and asking my phone company for a new one solved it immediately. (Your mileage may of course vary...)

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

I think if we change the log time to 3 day i would be solved but the phone should be able to hold more than 3 days log without these problems.
I wonder if any one know how should we update the firmware to 6.27 please inform us all.
i can not take it to service, 1 day without nokia 9300i?
not possible. I love to update my baby myselfe.

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

I took the phone to the service center, but they refused to update it to the new version, 6.27 saying that it will damage the phone. Has anyone tried to update?

Re: 9300i doesn't pickup calls.

Last week I took my 9300i to the service point. Normally with a "normal" Nokia phone (i did it with a 6230) it takes 1 day to update the phone because they can update it on location.
But with the 9300i it takes 3 WEEKS! Because Nokia thinks it's too risky to perform a update by a service point. So they send it to a head office?

This really disappoints me about nokia. With a phone like 9300i it should take 10 minutes to update, or provide a replacement. I hate to live without the 9300i.

Haven't heard the story yet that the new software version would damage the phone.. Why would nokia provide a new version for the 9300i when it would damage the phone.
