6120c incoming SMS problems......

Hi

 

I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem as me. Basically my 6120c stopped displaying the '1new message' alert on the screen and i get no other new sms notification (sound or vibration). The only way i know if i have a new message is if i go into my inbox and new messages are just sat there. I've also noticed that the words i saved on predictive text seem to have been erased.

 

Does anyone know if these are related and how do i go about fixing them?

 

Please help! :-)

m8,

 

Your phone is an S60 series & if the problem is software related you can fix that by hard reset, or by formatting the phone. Install the latest version of pcsuite for your phone if you haven't done so. After succesfully installing & connecting the phone do a backup. Close pcsuite & remove cable do the proceedure below:

 

On standby type

For reset to factory *#7780#
It will ask for “Restore all phone settings-phone’ll restart….”
Then it asks for security code enter factory default => 12345


For format *#7370#

- at Standby Screen type-in => *#7370#
It will ask for “Restore all phone settings-phone’ll restart….”
Then it asks for security code enter factory default => 12345


FOR CLAENING UP : you can say this one gives you the "New" OS, and of course deletes all user info

How to do it: Call it the 3 fingers
1) Remove the battery, and then wait for about 20 min or so before putting it back

2) Press and hold these three keys together -Green dial key, Star key[*], Three key [3]

3) switch ON the phone.

4) Do not let go the three keys until you see the WELCOME screen displayed and just let it complete the boot process

 

Hope it helps!

Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!

If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

Thanks for this very useful reply: I'm having exactly the same problem with my 6120c.

 

However we don't have a PC, only Macs. What is the alternative to PCSuite to back up my phone before a hard reset?

 

Thanks!
