I use the phone whilst abroad in a roving mode from my UK service provide. I have found one annoying feature which I am seeking help with. Whilst abroad I cannot always connect to my voice mailbox (and it is expensive to do so). However I keep getting (about every minute) a reminder that I have a voice mail and the back light illuminates to tell me so. Consequently the battery life on standby is only about 1 day. Anyone got an idea how I can solve this ?(without having to connect to voice mail)

Thanks

Marc

I've had the 6021 for about a month, and it's great. For those who complain about it not having a camera - wake up and smell the paranoia! Companies everywhere are banning camera phones in the workplace, so it took me months to find a fully-functioning PC-synch phone with bluetooth, etc and NO CAMERA - yay!

For the people who take more pride in the features their phone *lacks*, than the ones it has..

Seriously. I understand perfectly well there is a place for ultra-basic, no-frills handsets, but this place has its own price-range too. And Nokia's 6021 does not fit well --at all-- into it.

What do you get for 130 euros? An absolutely basic phone with no camera and no FM radio. Just the talking apparatus and a calendar. This might make a good sub-100 dollar device (say, at ~90 euros or so), but at this price there are much better devices to be had, and you'd be best advised to leave this one behind.

Hi this phone seems to be good at the 1st instance. But now i found some technical problems." When i set my profile to General and set the ring tone volume to the highest. initially this will work and slowly this will change by it self to low tone and some times to only vibration mode. Have anybody come across this problem and solved it? Please write to me.

thanks Lal - Bangalore - India

If you have had problems with this nokia and syncing with your mac, despite the fact that their PhoneDirector does not officially support the Nokia 6021, according to their customers almost all of its features
should work.

Download the latest updated version (still 1.0.8, but from
January 21):

Another user wrote and I can confirm that, indeed, the manual does state that you can use the PTT button for the purpose of recording conversations, and indeed it does not work, contrary to what Nokia says. I don't why that is so, but Nokia had better fix this with a firmware update.

Other than that, a nice, no-frills "professional" phone. Worth the purchase if you positively need bluetooth and an active tft screen in your phone.

Last but not least, a question : is there any way to disable the "beeps" at intervals, while you are recording a conversation no the dictaphone?

Sorry to post two opinions in a row, but simon here enraged me. Other things to do with bluetooth, which need no camera:
- use bluetooth headphones
- exchange files with PC (other than pictures)
- backup phone content
- play multiplayer games with someone around
- something that my company soon will employ: everyone in the office will have a personal task manager in the phone and it will be sync-ed with the company database by using (guess what): bluetooth
- etc. etc. etc.
- other applications still to come, if they actually implement the 'scatternet' in the phones (for those who do not know: the bluetooth standard is generally divided into 'piconet', which would be something as: one server, a few clients and 'scatternet', which would be as: many servers and many clients, each device can be server and client of other server at the same time).

amir, if you just copy the jar-files to the phone using generic connection, it will probably refuse to open it (mine did). Try to install them using the Nokia PC Suite.

And simon_821 said:
"itz a very bad fone, which has no camera but blue tooth. wats the use of blue tooth without a camera . the designer of this phone is empty headed"
Probably simon_821 is actually simon_8-21 - i.e. he is 8 years of age, but wishes he was 21.
I can think of applications of Bluetooth that do not NEED a camera. For instance, there is something I do almost evey day: sync my phone calendar with Outlook using Bluetooth connection.
I thank God that the designer of the phone has decided to go off-simon_821's-dreams and put Bluetooth into 6021, despite the heavy protests of simon_821 and his friends.
Frankly, what Simon said is one of the most stupid things I have ever heard - i give it 97 points of stupidity out of 100.

I love this no non-sense phone. Serves me well. Only one small problem I face is the ring tone goes very soft once in a while. I have to switch off & on to fix it. Anyone had this problem?

It depends what you're looking for. I was looking for a phone to depend on, wich will WORK as a PHONE, not as camera. And that's exactly what I got. So I am satisfied. No BS on this phone, just a a phone wich you know you can depend on. It works.

To Pete: I have the same problem with the number 1. I have to push it more hard than I do with others.

Very true, its a phone with all that is needful but without camera, I like it for sure.
Please anyone do tell me if there is a similiar phone from MOTOROLA, i.e. without camera but with PIM(Personal Information Management) capabilities.
Regards,
Obaid.
