6210 to 6250 Upgrade

(working on 1800MHz)

I can now supply this service

Why do this upgrade?

This upgrade converts your 6210 into a 6250.
There are some disadvantages to this upgrade but some useful features are added.
This is a good upgrade to do to show off to your friends.

The original 6250 is aimed at people in the building trade as the phone is water,
shock and dust proof - so Nokia say!

+ Sound/dB Meter
+ Task Journal
+ Timed Profiles
+ Timed/Automatic keylock
+ Coded Keylock
- Loss of 1800Mhz (orange/121) only in some cases
- Loss of Phone book Memory (250)
- Loss of SMS memory

WARNING: THIS PROCESS CAN KILL YOUR PHONE IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
IF YOU DON FEEL CONFIDENT PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS.

Using EEPROM Tools with this upgrade or doing a factory reset will cancel the 1800MHz signal - No Orange/121

What you will need: Rolis 4.77, Rolis Nok-Tool 1.8, Nokia Tool/Jordik 3.03,
A Flasher Cable/Kit, An M-bus compatible datacable, a 6210 phone, a 6250 full (PPM/MCU/EEPROM) Flash File.

Press *#06# on your phone to display the Serial Number.
Write down this number and keep it safe. Take the battery off and compare it with the Bottom Number on the sticker.

If they are different, you most probably have a stolen handset, report the person you sold it off to the police!!

1. Connect your 6210 to a flasher cable and turn it off.

2. Open Rolis 4.77

3. Make a backup of your phone (00200000 - 00600000)

4. Flash the 6250 full (PPM/MCU/EEPROM) Flash to your phone and close Rolis 4.77

5. Turn your phone on and make sure it works.

6. Connect your phone to an M-bus compatible cable (and switch on)

7. Open Jordik 3.03



8. Press Button 1 (Read Phone Info)

9. Type in your original IMEI into the black box (at 2). It will calculate the last digit.

10. Click on the 'Change IMEI' button (at 2)

11. Exit Jordik

12. Open KNok phoenix

13. Select 'Modify Locks'

14. Click 'Reset SP Locks'

You will need:
1) One set of parallel port flashing cables
2) A program called KNOCK

Step 1 - Backup Your Phone!
If you are a beginner at flashing the safest thing to do first is to backup the entire flash memory of your phone. This means that if there are any unforeseen mishaps you can restore your phone to its previous good health.
If you haven't already,Then run knok95.exe, you will see the flashing interface below:
Connect your flasher cable to the parallel port of your computer and then connect your phone. MAKE SURE THE PHONE REMAINS POWERED OFF!

Now from the drop down box select the model of phone you wish to flash (in this tutorial I will use 5210 as an example). Then select the 'Read' menu from the title bar. Click on the 'Read fullflash and store as FLS' option (see screen shot below). The program will then prompt you to press the power button of your handset for a short time.
When you press the power button the phone WILL NOT switch on but the program will kick into action. KNOCK is very clever in that it automatically knows the memory Adresses to read the full flash from each model of phone.

Now it is time to sit back because as i mentioned this program takes its time (aprox 20 mins). :-)))) When you become more confident at flashing you may decide not to bother with making a backup.

When KNOCK has finished reading your phones flash
memory, it will display the message 'OK' in the bottom
of the status window. KNOCK places the recently
created backup file in the same directory as its self.
For example a 5210 full flash backup would be
named like the file to the right.

That's the backup file created, hopefully you will never need to use it. In fact if you follow my tutorial carefully you almost certainly won't! :-))


Step 2 - Flash Your Phone!!
We are now ready to write the new software version to your phone. First download the flash file for your phone from my downloads section and save it to a location that is easy to find.

Now from the drop down box select the model of phone you wish to flash (in this example I am using a 3330). Then select the 'Write' menu from the title bar. Click on the 'Write FLS flash file to phone' option
You will then see a select file dialog box appear. Simply select the flash file you have downloaded from my site for your model of phone. In this example I am flashing a 3330.

Once you have selected the correct file to flash to your phone, KNOCK will want to know what address you would like to start writing the file at within the phones memory. The window to the right will be displayed. These default values are fine, DO NOT CHANGE THESE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! The default values start writing the file at the very beginning of the phones flash memory - and that's exactly what we want to do!! :-)) So just click the OK button.
Now When prompted press the power button briefly on your handset, you should see KNOCK kick into life. Just sit back and relax as the erasing/writing process will take approximately 10 minutes (KNOCK is not very fast!). When the writing process has finished KNOCK will display an "OK" message.

Step 3 - Update the FAID (Flash Authority ID)
Now That you have successfully written the flash file to your phone there is just one final step required. Your phone should power on at this point but it will keep on restarting and will not receive a signal. The reason for this is that when you alter the flash memory within your phone there are certain security checksums that need to be updated. The checksum that we need to update is called the FAID (Flash Authority ID) and you will be glad to here that it is quite a simple process! Although it is possible to update the FAID within KNOCK, for the sake of this tutorial it is more straight forward to use a program called Rollis Nokia Tool.

Download Rollis Nokia Tool HERE. Then connect your phone to a standard data cable (Mbus or Fbus). Run Nokia Tool and you will see the window below.


This software is very clever in that it will auto detect which type of data cable you are using (either pure M bus or auto switching F/M bus). To get the software to auto configure itself for the data cable and com port you are using just press the following button (found at the top right of the tool bar):

After a few seconds you should get a "Found Phone" message. (if not check you datacable is well connected to your handset). Now the software is configured press the "read phone info" button at the top left of the tool bar.

Remember if you are using this software under XP you will need to change the compatibility mode of the exe to windows 98.

All that you need to do now is press the "Update FAID" button.
The software will display a small successful message in the status
bar of the window.

Just for good measure you should finish the entire process by performing
a factory reset. To do this simply press the button labeled
"SFR" (special factory reset)



That's it!! You can now power on your phone and it will now be working as it should. (no more restarting or lack of signal).

TIP Just for good measure I normally perform another factory reset but this time from within the phones menu system. (settings -> Security Settings -> Factory reset)



i have the software and the screen shots in you need anything pm me

At present the most mainstream DCT4 unlocker is a piece of software from JIC. This unlocker was actually stolen from a company called JIC Electronics a little while back. It is very easy to use as it consists of only one button!

Nokia are continually improving the software within their handsets. Mainly these improvements consist of small bug fixes but recently Nokia improved the service provider lock protection.

What this means is that if your handset has a later version of software it may be more difficult to unlock. (You can check your software version by typing
*#0000# into the phones key pad)

Download the jic dct4 unlocker

This software works on all operating systems, BUT on XP you may need to right click the executable file, select properties and change the compatibility mode to windows 98.
JIC software works 100% with pure Mbus cables and does not work with M/F bus cables. (The software cant put the phone into test mode when using M/F bus cables). But there is a way to make the program work with auto switching M/F bus cables, so read on!

What if you have an M/F bus?
If you have an auto switching M/F bus cable then as mentioned above you cannot use the JIC unlocker. The reason for this is that the program fails to put the phone into test mode. So before you can use the JIC unlocker you must use another piece of software to send your phone into test mode. Download and unzip dct4 test mode by sajiuk

Connect your handset to the M/F bus data cable and run DCT-4 TestMode By SAJ1UK. Press the button "Put Phone in test mode". After a few seconds the phone should display the words "Test mode" on the screen. With the phone now in test mode you can exit from the TestMode program and run the JIC unlocker. (leave the phone connected to the cable at all times)

When you click the unlock button on the JIC program the phone is already in test mode therefore the program can now successfully unlock your handset.

What software versions can be unlocked Using the JIC Software?

The JIC software can unlock the following software versions:
3510: All versions
3510i: None
6310: All versions
6310i: All versions up to but not including 5.10
6510: All known versions
7210: None
7650: None
8310: All versions up to but not including 5.57
8910: All known versions

6610 and newer models can not be unlocked using this software

Unlocking DCT 3 handsets is very easy and there is a vast range of software that will do it. In my opinion the best is nokia tool by rollis 1.8

Download and run the rollis software. Connect the phone to your data cable and switch the phone on. This software is very clever in that it will auto detect which type of data cable you are using (either pure M bus or auto switching F/M bus). To get the software to auto configure itself for the data cable and com port you are using just press the following button (found at the top right of the tool bar):

After a few secs you should get a "Found Phone" message. (if not check you datacable is well connected to your handset). Now the software is configured press the "read phone info" button at the top left of the tool bar.

You will see the phone information displayed in the text boxes. Most of this is not important. But do have a look at the status of each of the four locks. If any one or more of these are closed then the phone is locked. To unlock the phone just press the "Clear SP Locks" button.

THATS IT!! Your phone has now been unlocked. I would not recommend playing around with the other features/buttons unless you know what your doing!!!!

There are a few flashing programs that can be used with the cheap DCT4 Flasher (Non work on XP!!!!!). They all operate in pretty much the same way, I have chosen DCT4 Flasher Pro by Ed 2K for this tutorial (But once you can use this software you can use all the others). Download and unzip the software:
DCT4v30.zip HERE
You will have a folder called DCT4v30, open this folder and you will see the following contents

The Fia folder contains the flash loader files that the software requires to iniate erasing/writing to the phone flash memory. Nokia do change the flash chips within newer variants of their handsets. This means that a very new 8310 may require a different flash loader (fia file) than an older 8310. All this means is that from time to time the fia folder will need updating with the latest fia files. I will do my best to keep the above download as upto date as possible with the latest fia files included with the fia folder!!!

Plug your flasher into your parallel port, plug the power cable into the USB port and connect your phone to the data cable. Now run the DCT4v30.exe,

If all is well the program will auto detect your DCT4 flasher dongle. You must now select the flash file to be written to the phone. (You probably got a lot of flash files on the CD enclosed with the flasher). First you must select the PPM pack you want to flash, the software will then automatically find the MCU file by itself. (as long as the MCU file is in the same folder as the PPM file).

If you are flashing an 8310 with software version 5.80 you will have a folder containing the following (you may have more PPM files in your folder,
As you can see the above filenames are very similar but it is easy to detect which one is the PPM pack as it has an alphabetic letter on the end. In this example the PPM is pack "C". Pack C is normally the European language pack containg English, German, French, Italian, Turkey.........

Anway back to the flashing process. Press the button on the software to select the PPM file.

Continuing with our example we will select the PPM file named nhm75505.80c. The software will then load both the MCU and PPM automatically.

Before we go any further I shall briefly explain the flashing procedure for DCT4 handsets. The flashing process has two stages:
Stage 1 the MCU is written (software package)
Stage 2 the PPM is written (language package)
(It is also possible to flash just the PPM if you only require to change the language pack.)

Now you are ready to press the magic flash button. Press the flash button and when prompted power on the phone. If all is working well the program will start erasing the flash memory. Once the erasing process has been completed the program will begin to write the MCU software. To write the MCU will take about 5 minutes so sit back and watch the numbers tick by!!:-)))

Once the MCU has been written succesfully the phone will display the words:
"Local mode"
and the program will display a message box asking you to power off the phone. What you have to do next is quite important! To turn the phone off it is best to disconnect the phone from the data cable and reconnect it again. The words "Local mode" shoulld NO LONGER be displayed on the handset. In my experience for many 8310/6510's just disconecting and reconnecting the data cable is not always sufficient as the words "Local mode" remain displayed. If this is the case simply remove the USB power cable for a second and plug it back in.

When you have succesfully turned the phone off (i.e local mode is not displayed) you must press ok button on the message box window.The program will now ask you to power on the phone for a 2nd time. Press the power on button briefly and the program will begin writing the PPM pack. The PPM pack will only take about one minute to write.

And thats it!! You have succesfully flashed your handset!

Newer 8310/6510's and 6310i's Require Different Fia Files!!!!!
Within the DCT4v30 directory you downloaded above is a folder named fia (as well as DCT4v30.exe). This folder contains a standard collection of fia files. The fia files in this folder will be fine for flashing 90% of all DCT4 handsests. But the very latest 6310i's and 8310/6510's require a different set of Fia files.

i have the software and the screen shots in you need anything pm me

It is not possible to READ the security code from DCT4 handsets, BUT it is possible to reset the security code back to the default setting of 12345. There are a variety of programs that claim to be able to reset the security code of DCT4 handsets. Most of these DO NOT work on the later software versions.

The best way to reset your security code is to do a full factory reset using some software called FBus by Maestro. This has never failed to reset the security code of any DCT4 phone I have tried! I have not managed to get it to work on XP but it works great on windows 98. BUT BE WARNED THE PHONES ENTIRE PHONE MEMORY WILL BE ERASED INCLUDING ANY PHONE BOOK ENTRIES THAT ARE SAVED WITHIN THE PHONE MEMORY!

FBus by Maestro works only with M/F bus cables (not pure Mbus),
Unzip the software and run it. Switch on the phone and connect it to a M/F bus cable and just press the button "Full Factory Reset".

And thats it, the phone will be back to factory settings and the security code back to 12345!

Read/Reset DCT3 Security Code
It very simple indeed to read the security code from DCT3 handsets . There are a few methods you can use. (first try the default setting of 12345!!)

1st method
Download Nokia Tool by Rollis 1.8 nokia tool br rollis 1.8 and connect your phone to your data cable. (this software works with both mbus and f/m bus cables). Read the phone info and your security code should be displayed (in the 4th text box from the top)
2nd method
If you have the program logomanager then this can also be used to read the security code. (iIf you dont have this program get it NOW, its the essential tool for backing up your phone book details). You can download a demo version of logomanager from www.logomanager.co.uk . The advantage of logomanager is that it offers Infra Red connection (as well as cable). So you can actually read the security code through IR.
What If The Above Methods Fail????
From time to time both Nokia Tool and Logomanager will fail to read the secuirty code. In particular on 6210's and 7110's. You will see ???????? in the security code field. If this is the case then you should attempt to RESET the security code to 12345 instead of reading it. The author of logomanager created a seperate program called NK Profile (you can download this from my downloads section). This program lets you tweak many settings on your phone but it also has an option for restoring the phones default settings. NK Profile will only run if you have logomanager installed on your computer! Also NK Profile will connect to your handset in the same way you have configured logomanager to connect, i.e either through cable or IR.

Connect your phone to your cable (or IR) and run NK Profile

This will reset your security code 99% of the time. (you may have to try more than once) Do not mess with the other features unless you know what you are doing!

The Odd Awkward 7110 or 6210!!
Ok very rarely you may come across a 7110 or a 6210 where all the above methods fail. The reason for this is that Nokia introduced an additional security feature in these models. If the security code has been entered incorrectly many times then it can't be read or reset at all! The only way around this is to either full flash the handset (including eeprom area) or flash a small file called an eeprom cleaner to the eeprom area of the handset!

[lightspike2004]

Many networks across the world allow their customers to have two lines on the same sim card. As far as I am aware in the UK it is only Orange that offer a 2nd line service. Therefore all handsets supplied by Orange (orange badged) will allow you to change between your two lines (providing you have subscribed to a 2nd line). This is because all Orange handsets have the ALS (Alternate Line Service) feature activated as standard. But many people acquire handsets offline (generic handsets). In this case the ALS (Alternate Line Service) if often deactivated!

It is very easy to activate ALS on most Nokia handsets. The only software you need to activate ALS for DCT3 handset and early DCT4 handsets is Logomanager.

Run Logomanager and make sure your phone is successfully connected either through IR or with a data cable. Now simply press and hold:

CTRL+ALT+L

All three keys must be held simultaneously for a brief amount of time.

When the message:
"Static ALS is currently disabled, do you want to enable?"
Select yes and your phone now has ALS activated!!! You can also deactivate ALS using exactly the same procedure.

I have tested this on all DCT3 handsets. For the 9210 ALS can only be activated when using a data cable connection, NOT Infra Red!!

Logomanager will activate ALS on the following DCT4 handsets: 6510, 8310, 8910 and 8910i. But for any newer DCT4 handsets

[lightspike2004]

Firstly you will need a combined MCU+PPM flash file to write to your phone.

You must patch your combined MCU+PPM flash file using NFader 1.4 (wintesla format is not supported)

Click the "Select File" button and select your combined MCU+PPM flash file. When the flash file has been loaded click the "Apply" button and save your new patched flash.
NB. Make sure "update CS" option is checked

You know longer need to update the flash checksums as the latest version of NFader (version 1.4) now does this for you.

Your flash file is now ready to be written to your handset

You must now write your modified flash file to your handset. You can do this using your favourite DCT3 flashing program. I use KNOCK but Rollis is also recommended.

Finally all that is left to do is to update the FAID and resest factory settings. I used Nokia Tool by Rollis 1.8 to do this.

THATS IT! Your phone should now have fading LED's just like an 8310!!

NB
I have tested this on 8210 (patched software version 5.31), 3310 (patched software version 4.45) and 3330 (patched software version 4.16).
