Nokia 6682 / 6681

🙄

If anyone can let me know how to check Firmware ver.

I sent away for a replacement phone and received it today, call logs now seem to retain after I restart my phone. However, I still get asked if I want to copy Sim to Contacts? or whatever it says.

Anyone else got an Idea if the replacement phones they are sending out are better then what I already had?

Thanks, Bob

anyone tried this?

$20. any free programs like this?

I have been using Nokia 6682 for over 2 months and absolutely love...the only problem I have had is that every time I power off the phone, it clears out my call history.

I called the Warranty Exchange program and received my replacement handset yesterday but its doing the same thing.

The warranty exchange people have no idea why it does that and offered a different handset but I'd rather keep this than the phones they offered in exchange.

Does it happen on all phones? Is there a fix? Please let me know at dharit@ureach.com

My new car (Infiniti 2006 G35 coupe) comes with a factory installed blue tooth device. I bought my 6682 on 12/15 from letstalk.com for $99 after rebate. The phone is pearl white with old firmware which I just found out is UNLOCKED.

I've paired my 6682 with my car and everything is going great, but whenever I place a call using the car and when the other party picks up the bluetooth connection would drop and transfer me back to the phone. Just to be clear, I don't loose the call...only the the bluetooth connection drops. I've also paired my car with a Moto Razr and it works perfectly!

Could this be a firmware issue? I'm debating if I should do a warranty exchange or not. If I do than Cingular will probably send my a LOCKED phone b...

Does anyone know if is possible to keep an old att number when buying the 6682 from letstalk? I have been waiting a while for this phone and don't want to pay the $299 to cingular.
Are there any other issues with getting this phone and service from letstalk or amazon?
Thanks.

I just checked on Amazon and they have this phone listed for $99.99! Now, here's the catch... it's $249.99, then you have a rebate for $150.00. To use the rebate, you have to purchase it by 1/11/06 and have the rebate postmarked by 2/11/06. Although, looking at the recent rebates, they have offered a $150 rebate continuously for this phone.

Catch #2.... They don't have the phones in stock just yet. It states "in stock soon."

Has anyone purchased the 6682 from Amazon?? Any problems? Is it unlocked like letstalk? If not, does it have the new firmware??

i finally ordered mine from letstalk.com 😁 ...its going for $99 right now and i had the $25 off coupon which makes it $74.99!!! 😳

will have to mail in the $100 rebate though...hope that will go well 🙄

now i can't wait for it to arrive!!! 😁

i think queenplato and some others have done this... if so, i need your advice.

i ordered my 6682 and should get it tomorrow.

i signed on for a new 2 year deal with cingular, and they will be giving me a new number.

currently, i still have my old AT+T contract. i didn't "upgrade", because otherwise I wouldn't have got the 6682 for $149, it would have been $249, since "migration" doesn't classify you as a new cingular user.

i want to keep my old phone number from my AT+T account, which is still active.

How can I do this???

Do I call Cingular, or go into the store? Basically, I want to keep my old number but transfer it to the new contract and new SIM in the 6682 and then cancel the old AT+T contract.

Thanks in advance fo...

I tried a co-workers T-Mobile SIM card in the phone i received from letstalk.com and it worked just fine. So now i'm really not sure if i want to return the phone for the newer firmware one that is locked (cingular)...??? Does anyone out there with a bit more expertise on these types of things have any suggestions? Should i go for the newer firmware or just stick with what i have since it is working just fine?? Thanks!!

i got a 512 sandisk card for my 6682 but when i put it in my phone it say there is no card in the phone PLEASE HELP

The 3G SIM is "BLUE" in color on the front of the sim, it'll say "3G" on it in the blue color........ I have noticed, at least in my area, that this sim "negatively" impacts reception/signal strength in certain areas where the older 64k (regional) card had better signal and reception...... When I let someone give me a 3G sim, my signal strength was cut in 1/2 to "NO SIGNAL" in these areas..... I got my hands on another regional 64K sim (cingular network is actually 3 networks 310 west region, 170 cenral region 150 eastern region), and the signal went back to what I was used to seeing.... so before you upgrade to the new 3G SIM, you may want to investigate this with one of your buddies SIMS......put it in your phone and see if the above holds...

hey, could you please let me know how you were able to get a new cingular plan, get a good deal on your phone, and keep yuour old AT+T number???

thanks!!

Any comments..guesses.. predictions.. as when can we expectt some price crash for this??

On cingular website, all phones have some MIR, except this one!

anyone??.. anyideas??

Is there any way of using this phone like an MP3 player and hooking it up in your car or to your home stereo, like with a headphone plug or any thing like this is ther a converter or something..
Thanks

I just got off the phone with a Cingular tech, and in light of what I've been reading re: Cingulars new firmware, I asked her for a phone exchange. She then told me that they have to "trouble shoot" prior to authorizing a replacement. She then instructed me to remove the battery while the phone was still powered on (she called it a software reset). So I do....and much to my surprise, the call log was still there and NO prompt to save Sim contacts!!! I even powered it off in the traditional manner twice more, and it worked!! Has anyone tried this, and if so is this a permanent fix??? she warned me that there is a chance that anything not saved on my Mem card may be deleted, however everything was still in tact! Can anyone who has tried t...

pretty nice... very thin!!

i'm still confused even after reading the post below mine. i mean, who would order straight from cingular for 300 bucks when they could just get it for half the price at letstalk??

also, is the letstalk one the silver 6682? cuz the one pictured on letstalk is pearl white (ew).

I received a 6682 for cingular from letstalk.com about 3 weeks ago with the pearl white cover and old firmware with no cingular symbols or software on the phone. I am tempted to invoke the 30-day return return policy to try and get the new firmware version however it has been posted here that it comes with the cingular symbols..etc and is most likely locked. Should i even bother with the exchange even though i'm not having any problems?? Or should i just count myself lucky that i got one without the cingular induced issues?? Thanks for any comments on this one!!!

Have had the phone for a couple of months now.. have the same problems everyone else seems to with the "copy contacts from SIM card" and deleted call logs...

The one thing I'm trying to figure out is whether I can create multiple voice tags associated with the same contact... you know, if you have one person with multiple numbers, and you want to be able to say "Mark home," "Mark mobile," and "Mark work" and have the phone call Mark at each of those locations.

Am I doomed to just having to create a separate contact for each of those?

We know that the 6682 with new firmware is now available from Cingular.

Has anyone out there actually received a 6682 from letstalk.com with the new firmware?

Letstalk is selling the 6682 for $149, but no one there can confirm that the phone contains firmware version 4.6.2. (The only other data point is argon345's post on Dec 20th where he had just received a 6682 from letstalk with the old firmware.)

Thanks!
