Eseries / Communicators :: Unlock Button Not Working - E71?
Oct 23, 2011
I have an E71, about 18mths old, and this afternoon the ''unlock'' button decided to not work so I can't access anything on my phone! I locked it as per normal, using the ''unlock'' and "function" buttons but when I went to unlock using the same buttons it didn't work. It's not coming up with the "now press function" message when I press unlock, so I'm presuming there's a problem with the button. Really hope someone has a solution that doesn't involve me having to send my phone off
The E5 has a home button and a message button that you can configure. Normally if you press the message button for a short time, it goes to messages. If you press it for a long time, it opens the create message menu. Mine worked yesterday but doesn't do anything anymore.
I'm an E51 user and i got the phone from my dad like few months ago. He updated it regularly and one day the left soft key stopped working,then it was the 4 button key 's turn to stop working.then he gave it to me and told me to go on Nokia's website to look for the solution. I was quite sure that it was the keypad but i discovered that if i press another button and the 4 button at the same time, the 4 button works. I am very confused. then after some time, the phone started to call contacts when i press the arrow keys. Example: im on the main menu and when i try to browse it calls my mum. I don't know why but i tried to update the software again to see what happens, but, the pc wont recognize the phone this time, i tried on my mother's pc, mine, my dad's one and my friend's one....same. I dont know if it is the firmware or the keypad. and i tried to reset all the settings by doing *#7370#, but i dont know the unlock code and my dad seems to have forgotten it.
Is there any way to move the camera button from the default top right button?When setting keyboard lock on/off (top-left then top-right) I press this button by mistake and has to exit camera-mode, which involves some waiting time.
My E73 phone locks automatically, I want to disable this. I tried:MENU > CTRL.PANEL > SETTINGS > GENERAL > SECURITY > PHONE AND SIM CARD > PHONE AUTOLOCK PERIOD.Then I click [NONE] to disable but is shows the following error:[UNABLE TO UNLOCK PHONE]

Yesterday I wanted to unlock the phone and unlock switch literally jumped out. It doesn't seem to be damaged in any way. I tried to put it back without any sucess. Phone is still under warranty, but since I use it alot and according to my previous experience with nokia service in my country, it can take up to two or three weeks, if and how could I put the switch back myself?
I forgot the unlock code for nokia e90 i bought used. it was bought from ireland. so i was searching the forums and i found the *+3+call button+switch on technique to hard reset. the hard reset is complete but fone asks for code and now i am totally struck.
When I charged last time my communicator and re-used it I discovered malfunctions at the front buttons. E.g. it is not possible to release the keyboard lock of when pressing the green button (for starting a call) and see the last calls on screen it switch to the function which is assigned to the upper button. Also when choosing an operation the phone wrongly moves to voice recording!
When my phone is on standby, central button is blinking every 10 seconds. How can I turn this off - I don't have any uread messages and emails and I erased SMSs on my SIM.
where is torch button in Nokia e71 tell an application .which has torch function and which doesn't play screen, it should able to start flash torch on nokia e71
Code required to unlock my phone after soft reset, I have try 12345 and 00000 its saying code error. I don't remember my password and I did not back up
I have a problem with my flashlight. When I just bought it (about a week ago), it was working fine. Hold the lock/unlock key for a few seconds and it turns on, do it again and the flashlight turns off. Now this suddenly doesn't work anymore, and I don't know how to get it back. I'm not sure when this happened, but I think it might have something to do with installing Belle...
Whenever I receive a call notification on my E7-00 I have pressed, swiped and tapped the green receive key, but it not activate, the time expires and the call is sent to voicemail; not every time, but most times.
Vodafode provide my service. When 121 rings the green button answers when pressed most times.
I sent this phone back to Nokia once already. They updated all of the software and sent it back to me. The software update is impressive but the green receive button still does not work.
For a £450 purchase price I was expecting better quality. I am now waiting for the carrier to collect the E7-00 take it back to Nokia again for, hopefully, a proper repair this time.
I've had my e71 for several months now and I didn't even know that it hada a special navigation button, I only used it to select thing, never as a mouse pad.I found out through a friend that has an e72 that the button does work for scrolling. However mine doesn't, I tried looking for how to activate it in the setup but could find anything.
Dropped the phone. Have now discovered the power button is stuck down. Phone stays on, but battery is depleting quickly.Pushing down on the button does nothing. How do I unstick the power button?
I just got my Blackberry Bold 9780 last night and the 'lock/unlock' button on the top left doesn't work at all. It feels somewhat sticky - the mute key on the right side makes a clicky sound when pressed down whereas the lock button just presses in without making any contact. I understand that you can set a password but that is rather inconvenient as you have to wait 1 minute for it to lock and every time I want to use the phone I have to type in a code. I can lock the phone by holding down A/* but then there is no way of unlocking it again. the phone came with the holster because that seems to unlock it for me - but this is obviously less than ideal.What can I do? Is there a shortcut to unlocking like on the Curve 8520 (a/* and the call button)?
My iphone5 lock/unlock button doesn't work. I checked with the Apple Store and my phone is eligible to be repaired. I just wanted to know when I give it to the Apple Store how long would it take for it to be repaired?
I keep my phone in a leather flip case and when it's in my pocket, the torch button (space bar) key gets pressed causing the flash to come on.I don't know why this is as I always keep my phone locked and no other keys seem to work when it's locked.
I have my BlackBerry Bold 9700 for over 5 months right now. It always was working nice, till one day ago.The lock/unlock (mute?) button doesn't work properly anymore.I can lock my blackberry with the lock/unlock button (and the a/* key) but I can't unlock it anymore with the lock/unlock button. I've to reboot my BlackBerry Bold 9700 every time. My phone haven't got damage.
Can the Menu button on the home screen be reconfigured for another function?It seems redundant to me to have this and a Home button that have the same function...
I recently updated my email program on my E75. Everytime I receive an email my select button light starts to flash, just like when I receive a text or have missed a call.
I have raised the issue of non activation of GPS in my e63 set. after posting i found that my opinion is listed and visible. today i fing my topic is missing.

As per numerous sources, the LED torch should be activated through sliding lock key for two seconds or so. I've tried this over and out (power save does not matter) and it doesn't work. I have the latest firmware.
