SOURCE: Problem is""phone star-up failed. contact the retailer"

The best solution for this problem is to format the phone memory. U may think format will erase all applications but it is false . The essential softwares like mp3 player, camera, etc. are not erased.
The process for format of phone is :
1) turn off the mobile.
2) press and hold ( green dial button + 3 keypad + * ) and turn on the phone holding these 3 buttons(dial button + 3 + *) until formatting screen appears.
3) When formatting screen appears, just leave the keys. and ur phone is formatted now.
4) When finished, it asks for restart of phone.
5) Restart ur phone, and ur phone is ready.

try this tricks....

If you encounter situation like below on your 6670,

1. Blank screen phone unable to reboot.
2. Phone only able to boot-up to "Nokia" word screen.
3. Install some program but not able to uninstall it after that.
4. Error messages such as "Child Installer" keeps popping-up.

Do a Full phone formatting on your 6670! as steps below,

1. Make sure you have at least 3/4 charge of battery power left.
2. Backup your contacts list and personal files to MMC memory card.
3. Switch-off your 6670phone.
4. Press and hold 3 keys;
Green dial key, * (star key) & no. 3 key and then press the power on/off to swtich on the 6600 phone.

Remember, do not let go all of the keys and hold keys until you see a NOKIA turns to white screen LCD!

5. After a few minutes when the Full phone formatting completed, your 6670 will back to original system and factory settting.

All apps installed & not of the phones' default will be lost. If you did a backup on your mmc, you can restore it back to the C drive again.


but still you have the prob. Contact Re-tailer
go to the Cellphone Shop nearby and try to re-program your mobile or Hardware...

Thank you for rating this Tip.

SOURCE: need to formatting nokia 6260 mobile

Switch the phone off. Hold the following 3 keys down and turn on:
3 , * and the green phone key

This will reset back to factory defaults but will completely wipe the phone of all data (your contacts, messages etc). Just follow the onscreen instructions - it will prompt you for your security PIN, the default is 12345. Good luck.

My nokia 6680 can't start up is telling me to contact a retailer

Press the " *, Green, 3 " it boots the phone like normal.
You can make phone call and everything.
(it actually BYPASS "contact retailer" screen)

But when it auto shuts down or low in battery.
when you switch it on again.
It comes back to the screen
"Phone start-up failed"
"please contact retailer"
So the above mentioned is the temporary solution. For permanent one please contact customer service center.

Dont forget to rate me. Thank you.

''Connection Error & Message Sending Failed''

Try doing a Factory Reset. (PLEASE DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK - FACTORY RESET WILL DELETE EVERY THING OUT OF YOUR PHONE)

Dial *#7370# now it will ask restore original device settings,yes,it will ask for password its-12345, your phone will restart, all the data on our phone memory will be deleted,and it will be like when you first bought it.

But i don't think so that gonna help you out that much. It seem to be issue with the network. Try using some other Mobile service provider. See if problem still remain their on your mobile.

These kind of error message comes when you have WEAK NETWORK.

My nokia 6680

Your phone can be repaired by formatting (soft/hard)
For hard formatting as your phone is unable to start,
Keep pressing 
'Green', ' * ', and ' 3 ' keys and start the phone.
Keep all the buttons pressed till the phone says "Formatting"
The phone formats, starts, and all the data is lost.
But the phone is all OK as before.


Please Rate.
