Please answer my questions for this phone
1)Can it transfer a 6MB of MP3 file?
2)How many MB can store one hundred pictures?
3)Does it last for twelve hours of MP3 before battery goes flat?
4)Can it transfer things with infrared from other phone to my phone?
5)Does it hang when u insert a 512MB RS-MMC?
Although this phone has mono MP3 player and u can actually geti nterchangeable cover. I have a problem is that the memory will be better. Please tell me more details about this phone. I think the picture quality is not bad.

OOPS!
The right code to see your firmware version is *#0000#

One more thing,
No Company will ever release a mobile phone with all the great features combined into one model as it will decrease the sale of other models and will block the possiblity to frequently release new models with slight improvements in one or two features.
Some flaws are purposely introduced into every feature rich phone by the manufacturers to promote the sales of all the models within the category. Nokia 3230 is no exception (Mono sound output, no in-built settings to save messages to Memory Card etc.)
So, I say again, please don't panic.

Nokia 3230 is really a nice smartphone from Nokia. Most of the users giving negative comments are either using older firmware (v3.505 or v4.0526, just type *#06# to see yours) while the latest one is v4.0537, or they probably lack the knowledge about Symbian based phones.
Symbian operating system based phones are very much like your personal computer. If you run too many applications simultenously on either of them, they will become slow and might HANG. Symbian phones have the feature of automatic restart in case of hanging.
Just press and hold the 'menu' key for about 2 seconds to see a list of all the applications currently running on your phone. Exit from the applications you are not using by selecting the application icon and pressing 'c' key. This will greatly reduce the workload on your phone and it will run much smoother.
One more reason behind such hang ups is that many users get their RS-MMCs loaded with applications, games, sounds, movies etc by that local dealer from which they purchased the memory card. Not all of these local dealers are well-trained for installing application on your card. In most of the cases they use a pre-installed copy of the application you request (probably installed by some other smartphone on its card and then copied to the dealer's PC) and simply copy it to your memory card. This doesn't works all the times for all the applications. The proper way to install applications is to transfer the setup file of the application (.sis extension) to your phone's memory card, run this setup file from the file manager application and get your application installed.
Do not install many applications at once. Install one application, run it to confirm that it is working. Exit from it and then install the next application.
Many times the hangup may be due to some old and faulty Memory Card. Moreover using a high capacity memory card (about 512 MB or greater), reduces the phone's operating speed particularly when any application which uses memory card (as its storage medium is opened).
So please don't panic about the hang ups and speed of your Nokia 3230.
Do some research and read about symbian based phones. THEY ARE SMARTPHONES ONLY IF USED THE SMARTER WAY.
If you are uncomfortable with symbian phones simply switch to a non-symbian one (Nokia 6111, 6230i are very good choices).

After reading these openions, I was looking for a phone with F/W 4.0526.2 and 1 1/2 month before I bought one. Up to now there is no any bugs with this phone. Annoying beeps before ringing is veeeery low and can be ignored. MP3 & redio sound quality is good with Headset but not with phone speaker. Outdoor photograph (with sunlight) are good, but indoor (without sunlight) photo quality is bad and gets blured. Automatic key pad lock is not with this version and if we want lock we can do that by pressing power button once and then select key pad lock. I should mention this also that is within this 1 1/2 months time, this restarted automatically twise. I am happy this phone and thanks for all who posted their comments here because those comments guided me to buy correct phone

Its a nice phone with some good features. Only problem is the software issue which restarts the phone sometimes. Also the phone gets slow as the memory space decreases.
