Re: SMS Reading Problem: E71

Where are the messages stored? On phone mem or memory card? I too had the same issue. When i tried to open a message to read, nothing happened but on the Home screen where you see a new message notification, i could see the preview of the message. I store my messages on the memory card. It was as issue with the memory card. So i took a back of my contacts, calender, etc and then formatted the memory card. Also did a reset of the phone. Now it's working without any issues.

Hi,

The boards are a user-to-user troubleshooting forum, people from various parts of Nokia do monitor the boards but it is not a place where feedback is given by Nokia.

If you require a direct response to your questions from Nokia personnel, please contact Nokia Care by telephone or e-mail (see the "Contact Us" tab for more details).

Best regards,

Re: SMS Reading Problem: E71

Hey guys!

I've solved this problem by formatting the memory card, I first took backup using nokia's content copier, then just formatted it. Now its back to normal.

(But the content copier didn't installed the applications I was using before, neither the sms messages, it just put all the folders back as they were in the memory card before, all the music files, pics, etc.)

I hope my post will help you guys somewhat. Enjoy using E71!
Best Regards,
Faisal Mohammad

Re: SMS Reading Problem: E71

I am having the same problem with my 5233. The messages just simply refuse to open.

Tried soft reset, hard reset, reinstalled current software version and installed an update that was available today as well... Will I have to flash the software??????????
