Hi hi. Really ben thinking about getting this phone for the past month or so. just a few questions I hope y'all can help with.
is it easy to text and does it have a distribution list function? read below that it has weird text features.
Can i use my batteries from my 6230 and 6030 for this unit as well?
any problem with the slide getting loose after repeated and long term use?

hey gigi3000 this is for CINGULAR settings k.
SMS Settings Message Center #
+13123149810
that's what's on mine. i have a feeling that should work for AT&T also, because we share the same tower..

you know what cola i think your right about that SIM card thingy.. because i change my SIM to a T-Moblie SIM the icon dissapeared.. but when i put back the Cingular SIM there it goes again.. i don't know what's wrong..
and by the way YES i turn off the phone and turn it back on again.. its still there.. took off the battery also.. still there.
What's wrong with your 3230? if you don't mind me askin..

but my AT&T sim card was working fine with Nokia 6630 and Nokia 6681. I know that it's a different platform but it shouldn't matter that much.Anyway, can anyone list for me their text message setting? i'd appreciate it very much so i can see what's wrong with it..I still don't get or receive text messages.

gwapz, gigi3000. i used my friend T-mobile sim card and the voice message icon is working. i think it's the ATT sim card.
gwapz, i am using the nokia 3230 (by the way the worst phone ever) and sometimes the icon doesn't disappear evethough i have no voice message, but after turing off and on again. i don't see it anymore.

that's the problem.. gigi3000 and cola are using an old AT&T sim card!! you guys should upgrade to CINGULAR!! well like i said im using cingular and im experiencing a glitch.. now the voicemail indicator doesn't wanna come off.. even do i have no messages in my voicemail.. so be careful what you wish for.. once it appears it never goes away..
that is why we need the FIRMWARE UPDATE!! to fix this problem..
Cmon NOKIA we need the FIRMAWARE UPDATE!!

This is for silent_rifle..
Well i kinda like the Series 40 better than the Series 60.. well because Series 40 is so simply to use and its very fast.. No offense i have no problem with Series 60 i love it too, in a way that you can download different kind of software. its kinda like a computer and yeah the OS crash alot and its very slow.. you gotta have patience when using Series 60..
Well as far as your question why did they do this? why 2 OS.. hmmnnn i don't know actually.. i guess they wanted to keep their old OS which is Series 40 and introduce everyony their new OS which is the Series 60.. keep them both running..
My info is not fully right.. Its just my guess..
There is no available FIRMWARE UPDATE yet.. i wish do.. i gotta fix a lil glitches..
Well Enjoy every minute of it..

ey there just got my 6270... just a few questions to those few enlightened people "in the know" regarding the phone's os...
--> whats the major difference of the series 60 and the series 40? which is better?
--> why have different os any how?
--> coming from a nokia 6600, I like the way i can download software made for series 60 phones.. what about series 40 softwares?
--> I feel this is a dumb question ryt here.. " can i use *.sis files on the 6270?"
all these questinos just for curiousity's sake =P and by the way... how do i update the firmware? wats the problem any how?
lastly, my 2cents worth.. the phone is pretty good.. feels a bit clunky but this is my first sliding phone anyway so i trust ur comments on its rigid construction.. I'll try to enjoy the phone first.. then maybe i'll get back whats the not so good... cheers!

Please i need help with my Nokia 6270..Love the phone but no notification of new voice message (not even the icon) and can't receive text message either. I had a nokia 6681 and loved it. I have cingular blue. Can anyone tell me how to make it work please? When you set up your messages the nokia 6270 doesn't even have the option" preferred connection" GSM.....Help!!!

uhh this sucks!! why can't the voicemail indicator logo won't dissapear on mine.. i got a message once then it never dissapeared.. even i deleted the msg on my voicemail.. any of you US users have encountered this problem.. pls let me know.. i have CINGULAR service.
I think its time for the FIRMWARE UPDATE!!
i mean the indicator is not a big deal, but i would feel better if i loose it..
