I have Nokia C5-03, it caught a bug, i had restored to the "Default factory setting" but the bug was still there. "Nokia Care" People have cleaned it once. It came again, I applied the "Hardware Restore Setting" provided here, and now i know what the "Nokia Care" people had done.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH :) Prashant

Hello,
a few months ago I bought Nokia C5-03 and I installed the free version of Quickoffice and then... my menu went out of order - all the icons that were in "Applications" went out in the main menu and the "Applications" was gone. Nokia Customer Care advised me to organize the nemu myself (from the Options) and so I did. But then the problmes started - I can't see the names of some people calling, I see only their numbers, sometimes the phone switches off, sometimes it changes the ringtone and sometimes it just stops searching for WLAN. Would that Hard reset described above fix my problem with the missing names when people call me? Would it bring back the normal view of the menu, the way it was when I bought the phone?
Hi,
I am using Nokia C5-03 for last 10 months. But today when I was installing Kaspersky Antivirus from Nokia Store website by loging in my account, the application first started installing but in the midway it got struck and the phone hanged up. Since then the phone did not come into normal mode. No key or the screen is working when I start my phone. Even I can't switch off the phone normally. I had to open the battery to turn it off and subsequently reinsert it to switch it on again?? I can't reset the factory settings and can't even format my phone memory. What to do?? Please help...
tnx i like it
