HELP! 6230 problem after unlocking!

[nokia-6230]

hey all, i recently purchased a nokia 6230 which was locked on vodafone. I took it to a shop where they unlocked it to all networks, however a problem occured! the shorcut settings on my phone (go to..) does not seem to be working, everytime i go on it the phone just dies out! I have rang a few places up and they all say its a software problem, and that the phone needs flashing, does any1 have any idea of whats going on?!?!? id so any help will be great, thanks!

as they told you - you need to reflash the phone.

flashing is writing a new firmware on the phone, that's probably what they guy in the shop did - to unlock the phone.

however, there is a problem (known to nokia) with some phones' shortcut menu, that was discovered on a 6100, but it appears also in some other models.

take the phone to a nokia service center, and ask for a firmware upgrade, it is free, and it will fix the problem.

if you can't get to a nokia service center, ask your provider.

(you can also get someone else to flash it, in private shops like you found, but it may not fix the bug as the firmware they have is not always the newest).


...and another thing, please type *#0000# on the phone (firmware version code) and post it here..
we need things like this to know where the bug exists.

hey, firmware version is v 03.15, the same shop I got the phone unlocked say that they can flash it for me, they say they have got the 6230 software to do so, Im in 2 minds of wheter to get it done by nokia or by them again!
