How to detect fake Nokia phones

Beware of fake Nokia cellphones being sold off EBay or the internet or even in your locality. Mostly these are from China with the design and packaging imitated from real Nokia phones. But not all phones Made In China are fake as Nokia has a plant in China that adheres to the strict standards of Nokia and supervised by Nokia itself.

Here are some red flag that tells if the Nokia phone you're eyeing is really a fake Nokia:

1. Low Price. Especially if its the latest Nokia phone models like Nokia N82, Nokia 5310, Nokia N95, Nokia N81, Nokia 6120, Nokia 6500 slide, Nokia 5610 Xpress Music etc.. and it is being sold at half or a third of the original price, which is an indicator that the unit might be fake.

2. The fake "Nokia" phones are lighter in weight than the original Nokia. Make sure to get a hold of the original Nokia phone in authorized Nokia resellers or Nokia dealers stores, if you plan to buy a brandnew or used Nokia phone off the authorized sellers.

3. Look for a 12-month Nokia warranty sticker ( usually says Limited Nokia Warranty ) slapped on top or side parts of the phone’s box.

4. Look also for a hologram showing Nokia connecting hands at one angle and the original enhancements logo at another angle in the battery. When you angle the hologram on the left, right, down and up sides of the logo, you should see 1, 2, 3 and 4 dots on each side respectively.

5. A tamper-proof label at the back of a unit and the type acceptance as part of one sticker and a Nokia tamper-proof warranty seal. Usually, for a Nokia phone to be totally serviceable and original (real), government regulation also requires a tamper-proof seal of a Telecommunications Agency or Department of the Government in charge of mobile phone use regulation, that is as if the sticker is one and the same as the tamper-proof label at the back of a unit.

6. Mobile phone interface is not the traditional Nokia interface. Usually if it is, the languange is broken English or wrongly spelled words. Usually, the interface speed and handling is also slow in fake Nokia's. Watch out for the Nokia phone Manual too for these observations. Fonts of the fake Nokia is also sometimes different.

7. Fake Nokia phones usually cannot use Nokia's 3G phone capability like video call or surf the net in 3G. It also does not have wifi or radio, for Nokia phones with such capability.

8. Fake Nokia phones also have lower camera capability than the original. For example, an original Nokia 5610 Xpress Music phone has a 3.2 megapixel camera, the fake Nokia 5610 will usually have a 2 megapixel camera. Check the camera when buying, take a picture using the highest setting of the phone and take note of the size of the resulting photograph taken in kilobytes. If the kilobytes (kb) is around 200kb only for a 3.2MP camera at its highest setting of 3.2MP, then the Nokia phone is fake. A 3.2MP camera have 400+kb file size.

9. Check the usual Nokia secret codes/shortcuts. Usually fake Nokia phones have no such capability. To check for the IMEI Serial no. press *#06#, take note of the number, it should be the same as in the back inside of the phone and the Box that came with the Nokia phone. Check also the other Nokia secret codes like *#0000# that shows the Nokia cellphone's firmware version, firmware date and Nokia mobile phone code. You can also check the Service Warranty secret code for further protection, press *#92702689#.

10. The Nokia Phone Unit, Battery, Charger, Data cable, etc.. should have the Nokia Care sticker.

11. Usually, if you have a Symbian Nokia phone, the fake Nokia phone does not have the Symbian OS.

12. If you really want to make sure your Nokia phone is real, buyers should buy only from authorized Nokia dealers/stores.

Nokia 6600 Secret Codes

The Nokia 6600 is one of the most successful mobile phone Nokia has ever produced selling millions of it. So it is but proper to present to you the secrets of the Nokia 6600.

Menu key Long pressing for "task manager" - switching between active programs (with "C" key programs can be terminated.)

Menu quick access Over in the menu e.g. to point 3.1 arrive simply 31 enter (if the third symbol a file is opened is for these and then in it started the first Programm/Icon).

Autostart go around When switching on of the Handys on to the pin inquiry the key "ABC" (pin) comes the whole time keeps pressed - this is to ignore (allegedly) the autoinitialization programs.


12345 ... is according to standard set the Nokia nokia-Sicherheitscode.

0 - for a long time press If one the "0" in the main menue for a long time presses those homepage of the standard WAP connection is called.

------------------------------------------------------
Caution - starting from here the codes are "dangerous"
------------------------------------------------------
*#7370925538#
*# of res wallet # ... is to be deleted the code around the "wallet"! Input like normal telephone number (not in wallet code inquiry windows).
NOTE! Afterwards the "wallet" is empty, can again be put on however with new code.

*# 7780 # The "original attitudes" and telephone re-establishes is again started (an appropriate inquiry and it follow before must the securitycode be entered).

# pw+ 1234567890 +3 # Country LOCK status
# pw+ 1234567890 +4 # Sim Card LOCK status
The code 1234567890 must be computed with a program e.g. SmartDCT4Calc and/or DCT 4 code Calculator from IMEI, etc....
Info. to Simlock: SIM LOCK makes it for the offerer/network carriers possible, subsidized Handys to offer. Thus one makes oneself if necessary punishable if one SIM LOCK deactivated - in addition the warranty can purged. I take over for it no adhesion or responsibility!

Foodstuff to save wet Nokia Phone

If you dropped your phone in the toilet or the beach or anything that will make the Nokia phone wet, leave it turned off overnight in a bowl of uncooked rice. Huh? rice? Yes, rice, the uncooked one. Uncooked rice sucks out moisture.

One of just a few uses of rice. Only this time it's the healing qualities of rice. Some Nokia mobile phone enthusisasts also swears on the healing qualities of breakfast cereals and oatmeals.

Steps to Save Wet Nokia Cellphone

If you happen to wet your Nokia cellphone, submerge that Nokia phone in water or drop that Nokia mobile phone in water. Here are some steps you can take to save a wet Nokia cellphone:

1. Remove the Battery. This is one of the most important steps. Don't take time to think about it, electricity and water do not mix. Cutting power to your phone is a crucial first step in saving it.

2. Dry your Nokia Phone. Obviously you need to remove as much of the water as soon as you can to prevent it from getting into the phone. Use a towel or a paper towel to remove as much of the water as possible.

3. Soak in Alcohol. Alcohol is hygroscopic so it attracts water, it will dissolve all the water in the Nokia phone, which will then pour out of the phone with the alcohol. Any remaining alcohol will evaporate. Alcohol will not harm your phone but may mess up glue (from stickers and the like). Use 95% alcohol, not the regular 70% rubbing alcohol type. Do it outside!. If you use alcohol, do not follow the rest of the advice here, instead leave your phone outside for a day or two to dry.

4. Allow the phone to dry. Since you do not want to ruin your phone or lose all the numbers in your phone book, you need to allow the phone to dry. Don't try putting the battery back on to see if it works as this would risk damaging the phone with a short circuit. Leaving your phone in a bowl of dry rice will help to expedite moisture evaporation.

5. Heat your Phone. Apply enough heat to your phone to cause the water to evaporate without waterlogging your digital screen. One of the best things you can do to save a cell phone is to set it on the back of your computer monitor or TV screen over the heat vents. This is usually the perfect amount of heat to fix your phone. The convection action of the heat vents will help carry away the moisture in your phone. Leave the phone on the heat for at least 2-3 days. Another option is to leave it overnight in the oven on warm (make sure to take off the battery first).

6. Test your Phone. After you have waited 3 days, make sure everything is clean and dry looking and re-attach the battery to the phone and see if it works. If your phone does not work repeat step 4. If it still won't work, try taking your cell phone to an authorized dealer. Most of the time they can fix it.

7. Don't put the battery on for at least 3 days or longer if your digital screen is foggy.

8. The best way to dry out your phone is to place it in front of an air conditioner or air conditioning vent. Cold air won't damage your phone (hot air can warp or in extreme cases even melt plastic), and air from an air conditioner is dry, and so will evaporate water faster than you might think (which is why a car air conditioner will de-mist the windshield so effectively, even if the engine hasn't warmed up yet). Warm air from a reverse-cycle air conditioner works even better, of course. If you dry your phone in this way overnight it should be fine by the morning.

9. Use a hairdryer set on warm; it won't melt your head so your phone should be safe. Or use a food dehydrator. Or use the oven on the warm setting, make sure to take out the battery first though.

10. Don't heat the battery or it could leak acid. If you use an oven or hairdryer, make sure to remove the battery first.
If you use alcohol make sure to do so outside, and do not apply heat in any form, not even the gentle heat of a monitor. Do not hook up the bettery till the alcohol smell dissipates.

11. Do not apply heat to your phone other than mentioned above. You don't want to melt or burn your phone. Warranty fraud is naughty! If you dropped your phone in the can with your other 'droppings'–are you really going to send it in for a warranty tech to have to open? Yuck!

12. Most modern phones have more than one liquid damage indicator on them, only one visible to you (and sales/technician agents), and chances are, if the sticker under the battery is triggered (or would be, with the scotch tape trick), then the odds are that the internal stickers you can't access are tripped as well. This will still result in you paying a voided-warranty fee in the long run, and it may be best to just learn from your mistake (and not make it more financially severe!).

13. Even if all these steps are followed, minerals dissolved in the water can precipitate on solder and component pins, causing corrosion or shorting. Components pins are packed so closely together in a modern cell phone that even a small encrustation can create a short, rendering the phone inoperable.

Top 10 Nokia Trivia Facts

Top 10 Nokia Trivia and Nokia Facts

1) The ringtone "Nokia tune" is actually based on a 19th century guitar work named "Gran Vals" by Spanish musician Francisco Tárrega. The Nokia Tune was originally named "Grande Valse" on Nokia phones but was changed to "Nokia Tune" around 1998 when it became so well known that people referred to it as the "Nokia Tune."

2) The world's first commercial GSM call was made in 1991 in Helsinki over a Nokia-supplied network, by Prime Minister of Finland Harri Holkeri, using a Nokia phone.

3) Nokia is currently the world's largest digital camera manufacturer, as the sales of its camera-equipped mobile phones have exceeded those of any conventional camera manufacturer.

4) The "Special" tone available to users of Nokia phones when receiving SMS (text messages) is actually Morse code for "SMS". Similarly, the "Ascending" SMS tone is Morse code for "Connecting People," Nokia's slogan. The "Standard" SMS tone is Morse code for "M" (Message).

5) The Nokia corporate font (typeface) is the AgfaMonotype Nokia Sans font, originally designed by Eric Spiekermann. Its mobile phone User's Guides Nokia mostly used the Agfa Rotis Sans font.

6) In Asia, the digit 4 never appears in any Nokia handset model number, because 4 is considered unlucky in many parts of Southeast/East Asia.

7) Nokia was listed as the 20th most admirable company worldwide in Fortune's list of 2006 (1st in network communications, 4th non-US company).

8. Unlike other modern day handsets, Nokia phones do not automatically start the call timer when the call is connected, but start it when the call is initiated. (Except for Series 60 based handsets like the Nokia 6600)

9) Nokia is sometimes called aikon (Nokia backwards) by non-Nokia mobile phone users and by mobile software developers, because "aikon" is used in various SDK software packages, including Nokia's own Symbian S60 SDK.

10) The name of the town of Nokia originated from the river which flowed through the town. The river itself, Nokianvirta, was named after the old Finnish word originally meaning sable, later pine marten. A species of this small, black-furred predatory animal was once found in the region, but it is now extinct.

Revealing Hidden Menus of Nokia 6110

There are two menus on the Nokia 6100 series which are not enabled by defualt, and only appear when some optional accessories are fitted, namely the hands free kit or the car kit.

Note: The following instructions require you to short out certain contacts on your phone. Again, I will not hold responsible for any damages that may happen.


As you look at the bottom of the Nokia 6100 series, on the right, you should see 7 gold connectors in a row. For the following instructions I am going to refer to these as pins 1 to 7 with pin 1 the leftmost pin of the seven and pin 7 the rightmost pin.

Enabling The Hands Free/Headset Menu

Short out pins 1 and 2. After a few seconds, the word 'Headset' should appear on the display. You should now find that you have menu 3-6 enabled.

Enabling The Car Kit Menu

Short out pins 2 and 3. After a few seconds, the word 'Car' should appear on the display. You should now find that you have menu 3-7 enabled.

Removing The Menus

The only way to remove the menus is to select the 'Restore Factory Settings' option from the settings menu of your phone. When asked, enter your security code (by default it is 12345). Doing this will get rid of the menus, but will also set your ringtone back to it's default value and remove the uploaded ringtone if you had one in memory. It doesn't affect the game high scores, phone numbers etc.

Nokia 2110i Secrets

Nokia has one of the best mobile engineering and mobile phone design ever. They also programmed Nokia to be user-friendly. Here are some Nokia 2110i Secrets:

*#06# for checking the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity)
To view Week and Year of manufacture enter *#3283# [*# D A T E #]
The last two digits are the year. If the year is 95, the first two digits are the month. For 96 the first two digits are the week of the year.

To view the software version on 2110e / 2110i enter *#170602112302# or *#9999#
On newer phones, the code has been changed to *#682371158412125#

All Nokia phones (2110 and newer) have four different SIM locks which can be used to lock the phone for up to 4 different providers. But most phones with restriction only have one lock activated. (Lock 1)

The main code used in Nokia phones is :
#pw+(master code)+Y#
This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim card restriction (SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.
'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4 - depending of what lock you what to deal with.

#pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+3# for Country-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status


# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4


(master code) is a 10 digit code, based on the phones IMEI number.

Eg. To remove restriction on lock 1 type following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone use 10 random numbers Eg. 1234567890 as the (master code)
eg. To check if phone if restricted on lock 1 type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#

Bypass the SP lock With a Nokia 16xx/21xx/31xx/51xx/81xx

1. Insert SIM card of different provider.
2. Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for 3 sec.
Then release it and the phone says PIN CODE?
3. Press the "C" key.
4. Then Press * and wait until it disappears and appears again, then press * one more time and 04*PIN*PIN*PIN#



The phone now says: PIN CODE CHANGED (or ACCEPTED) and the SIM card is accepted until you restart the phone again.
NOTE: On version 5.04 Nokia has removed this option !

Nokia 3110 secrets

Nokia has one of the best mobile engineering and mobile phone design ever. They also programmed Nokia to be user-friendly. Here are some Nokia 3110 secrets:

*#06# for checking the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) Information you get from the IMEI:

XXXXXX XX XXXXXX X

TAC FAC SNR SP
TAC = Type approval code
FAC = Final assembly code
SNR = Serial number
SP = Spare

*#7780# restores Factory Settings..(Memory, language, counters not included)

*#3110# for checking the phone's software (SW) - called firmware revision information.

#746025625# [*#sim0clock#]
Checks if the sim clock can be stopped. Sim clock stop is a kind of stand-by mode which will save battery time. This code doesn't work with software version 4.59.

*#92702689# [*#war0anty#]
Press the following warranty code:

6232 (OK) : Displays the Month and Year of Manufacture (0997)
7332 (OK) : Displays the date of the last repairment - if found ('DATE NOT SAVED'...)
7832 (OK) : Displays (if found) the date where the phone was purchased ('DATE NOT SAVED'...)
9268 (OK) : Displays Serial Number
37832 (OK) : Set the Purchasing Date MMYY (Warning: You can only do this once - So be careful ...)
87267 (OK) : Transfers ALL phone numbers, pictures, sounds from one phone to another

Service Prover Lock
The service provider (SP) lock is used to lock the cell phone to the SP's SIM card. Once the cell phone is locked to a specific operator, if one inserts a SIM card from a different operator the phone will refuse to accept it! The cell phone will however accept another SIM card from the same operator.

All Nokia phones (2110 and newer) have four different SIM locks which can be used to lock the phone for upto 4 different providers. But most phones with restriction only have one lock activated. ( lock 1)

The main code used in Nokia phones is:
#pw+(master code)+Y#
This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim card restriction (SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.
'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4 - depending of what lock you what to deal with.

#pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+3# for Country-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status

# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4

(master code) is a 10 digit code, based on the phones IMEI number.
(I can NOT give you the master code - SO DON'T ASK ME FOR IT !!!!!!!)

Eg. To remove restriction on lock 1 type following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone use 10 random numbers Eg. 1234567890 as the (master code)
eg. To check if phone if restricted on lock 1 type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#

Please NOTE that these codes could be used with care! A user told me that it's only possible to type in about 3 different codes on each lock! Then something bad will happen ..therefore be careful!

Bypass the SP lock
With a Nokia 16xx/21xx/31xx/51xx/81xx that are SIMlocked to one privider you can bypass the SP lock like this:
1: Insert sim card of diferent provider.
2: Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for 3 sec. then release it and the phone says PIN CODE?
3: Press the "C" key.
4: Then Press * and wait until it desapear and apear again, then press * one more time and 04*PIN*PIN*PIN#


The phone now says: PIN CODE CHANGED (or ACCEPTED) and the SIM card is accepted until you restart the phone again. NOTE: On version 5.04 Nokia has removed this option !

Fast silent mode
In the newer versions (v.7.11 or higher) a quick silent mode can by entered. Press Menu then #.

The 54# Tip:
Type 1#, 2#........54# on the keypad (when you're not in the menu) to get the phone number used for with this key when speed dialing.
