Revealing the Headphone and
Car-Kit menus


Please note that if you do these
next tricks, the new menus can't be erased without retoring the factory default
settings. To do these tricks you need to short-circuit the pins on the bottom of
the phone next to where you plug in you charger.


1. To activate the "Headset" menu,
you need to short-circuit pins "3" and "4". After a short time the word
"Headset" will be shown in the display. Menu 3-6 is now enabled.


2. To activate the "Car" menu, you
need to short-circuit pins "4" and "5". After a short time the word "Car" will
be shown in the display. Menu 3-7 is now enabled.


THE REBOOT TRICK


This should work on all software
versions of the 6110.


1. Go to the Calendar (Menu-8)


2. Make a note or reminder.


3. Enter some text into the edit
box.


4. Hold "Clear" until the whole text
is cleared, then press "Back".


5. Press "0". The main screen will
now be showing but a space appears on the screen. (You can't see it)


6. Enter 4 digits (e.g. 1234).


7. Use the down arrow to move the
cursor to the left side of the numbers and the space (Down arrow twice).


8. Now enter 6 digits and press the
call button.


Wait for a few seconds, the screen
should start to flash and reboots. It should also work on other menus like the
"Profiles" menu.


EFR CALL QUALITY
To activate EFR (Enhanced Full Rate)
Enter the code-

*3370#
This improves call quality but
decreases battery life by about 5%

To deactivate it, enter the code-
#3370#


THE JAMES BOND TRICK


If you short-circuit theleft middle
and right pins on the bottom of the phone with all connections touching each
other, the Nokia software hangs! The profile "Headset" will be activated. Before
you do this just activate the "Automatic Answer" in the headset profile and set
the ringing volume to "Mute". Now you can use your phone for checking out what
people are talking about in a room. Just place it under a table in a room and
call it. The phone receives the call without ringing and you can listen to what
people are saying.


NETWORK MONITOR


There is a hidden menu inside your
Nokia phone. If you want to activate it, you'll have to re-program some chips
inside of your phone.

  1. Check your software version. You
    can only continue if you have v4.33, v4.73 or v5.24.

  2. Take apart the phone.
  3. De-solder the EEPROM (ATMEL AT
    24C64).
  4. Read out the data with an EEPROM
    programmer and save it to a file (Backup).

  5. If you have v.33 or v4.73,
    change the address "03B8" from "00" to "FF".

  6. If you have v5.24 then changes
    the address "0378" from "00" to "FF".

  7. Write the new data to the EEPROM
    and solder it back to the phone,
  8. Power on your phone and you
    should have "Net monitor" enabled.



The Network Monitor gives you the
following information.

  • Carrier number
  • MS RX Level in DBM
  • Received signal quality
  • MS TX power level
  • C1 (Path loss criterion, used
    for cell selection and reselection). The range is -99 to 99.

  • RTL (Radio link timeout).
  • Timeslot
  • Indication of the transmitter
    status
  • Information on the Network
    parameters.
  • TMSI (Temporary Mobile
    Subscriber Identity).
  • Cell identification (Cell ID,
    Number of cells being used).
  • MCC (Mobile country code)
  • MCN (Mobile network code)
  • LAC (Location area code)
  • Ciphering (On/Off)
  • Hopping (On/Off)
  • DTX (On/Off)
  • Discard cell barred information


CHECK SIM-LOCK


Note - If you bought your Nokia on
UK Vodafone or UK Cellnet you do not need to check this because they both
transmit on GSM900, and they don't lock the phones. However if you bought your
phone on UK Orange or UK One2one your phone may be blocked. The reason is that
they both transmitt on GSM1800. To make a call on GSM1800 you need what is known
as a "Dual band" phone. A dual band phone is able to transmit on both GSM900 and
GSM1800, so they lock the phones so you can't use it with any other network
simcard. If you find that your phone is locked you can try different software to
unlock it. (we havn't found one that works yet), or you can ask your service
provider who will gladly exchange the 10 digit code for about

35.


This is how to check the status of
the 4 different locks. Aslo don't try entering the wrong number, because after 3
times it will block the phone for good.


There are 4 different locks on your
Nokia phone.

  • COUNTRY-LOCK
  • NETWORK-LOCK
  • PROVIDER-LOCK
  • SIMCARD-LOCK



The code to read out the sim-lock
status of your phone is

#PW+(MASTERCODE)+(Y)#



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


The master code is a secret code.
The code has 10 digits, To read out the sim-lock status you can enter every
combination you want!



"Y" Shows the status of the
network-lock. Here you can enter a number from "1" to "4". The "4" is for the
sim-card lock.


SIM-LOCK CHECKS



  • #PW+1234567890+1# = GIVES
    PROVIDER-LOCK STATUS
  • #PW+1234567890+2# = GIVES
    NETWORK-LOCK STATUS

  • #PW+1234567890+3# = GIVES
    COUNTRY-LOCK STATUS

  • #PW+1234567890+4# = GIVES SIM-CARD-LOCK
    STATUS.
