Can ayone tell me how i can get to play mp3's from my 6230?

I want to D/L the tracks off say kazaa and get them to my phone how do i do this?

I have a data cable and nokia pc suite , do i need anything else?

cheers

EssexBoyRacer

can u get nokia pc suite to connect to the phone ok?

if so just use transfer music to do it, or if u can drop the files in the relevant folder on the phone using nokia phone browser.

EssexBoyRacer

btw the phones bugged to shit so wouldnt suprise me if it doesnt work.

Im using bluetooth and the only way I can get mine on is to do an FTP transfer using the bluetooth software.

cossie1

or look for a prog called mobimb version 2.0

that works well using bluetooth so should also work fine with the cable

Matt

buy and install a bluetooth dongle

download an mp3 player (i have one i can mail you)

ftp the *.sis file over to handset from pc

install it on handset or mem card

play yer mp3

works on my 6600

you can also send/retrieve files via the ir port if you got a pc/laptop with a ir port

Tony Turbo

I use the IR ports, complicated procedure, but it works.

I download the tracks from kazaa to the main PC, do an MSN - MSN transfer to the laptop, then send it from the Laptop to the 6230 using the Nokia software.

What I want to know is, I have to save the music on my Memory card, because the files are a few MB each, but doing it this way, I can't make the phone play the whole lot in one go, I have to tell it to play each song individually. Is there anyway round this?

i have this nokia cable but the phone wont connect to it!!?


any reason why? (its a 6230)

EssexBoyRacer

what version software are u using?

if u're using XP or W2k I think u need to download the lastest version of nokia suite from the nokia site for it to work.

DaveEscos

tried that mate, it doesnt recognise the phone

EssexBoyRacer

the phone is bugged to f**k.

have u tried going back to the software that came on the CD?

I cant connect mine with blue tooth on the latest version. I can get some of the functions to work with the old version.

DaveEscos

what do you mean by 'bugged' ?

as in security etc???

EssexBoyRacer

no, faults with the software in the phone.

there are heaps of them.

I think one of them is the connection with the nokia suite software.

to play the list of music from the mmc card all I did was open the music player, go to options then track list
find the folder i.e mmc card and play a song

then it should go through the lot (well does on mine)

A card reader makes it easy as to transfer mp3s, no nokia software needed, got mine from ebay £6.49 delivered.

You just plug the card reader into a usb port, put the mmc into the reader, then on the pc drag the mp3 and drop it at what ever drive the card reader is mine was f:.


Have you got enough memory left on you card if you still got the nokia 32mb one?

Tony Turbo

Doesn't work on mine. If I go into Music Player, it comes up "No music files found" even though there is about 6 on the MMC card. I am using a 128mb card I got. So I moved a track into the Music folder on the phone, that is now in there, but if I go to Track List, it comes up with the same message...

Fucking Phone!!!


Does anyone else have the problem where if you turn it off overnight, you have to program in the time and data again, even if the battery is full?!

Yeah thats what i do, piece'a pi$$!!

EssexBoyRacer

Bit of a pain that u keep having to take the phone apart to get to the card though. Keep an eye out for the next firmware update on these phones. Hopefully they'll have fixed most of these bugs.

Dave have you downloaded the DKU-2 (Datacable drivers) ?

they need to be installed BEFORE PC Suite too....
