Nokia 3230 recovery of contacts from phone memory

Check your battery voltage and see if the adapter shows the charge, if the phone does not switch on or does not indicate any display then Do not attempt unless if you can take an opinion and estimate with the Nokia care center. The memory on the SIM can be transferred but the ones within the phone memory could be the issue.

Generally this phone is taking 2-3 minutes during start up.If your phone takes longer than this there might be some problem.So, my comment is to format by following this Nokia Formating tips.For your mmc first insert another or put your mmc to other phone.If your mmc is working in other phone you should need to contact mobile repairing shop for hardware repair.Thanks for visiting fixya

just insert the memory card in ur phone and ur memory will automatically recognised... if not then connect your phone with pc (with memory card inserted) then ur accessable to ur memory backup...
please vote 4 me ..i m sure this will surely solve your problem...

yes you can soft format [factory reset] your phone by pressing *7730# and entering your security code[default 12345] or weather you want to HARD FORMAT, switch off your mobile phone 1st, then press and hold 3 keys at a time star key, green dial key, and no. 3 key. then switch on your phone.
do not unhold all three key's until nokia's logo come's [hand shake] . it's done. you have to select your city. mean's your phone is virus free now.
[get backup of your contacts and messeges before formatting or you will lose your data]
