Nokia 6630 - how do i open it!

DaisyBumbleroot · 10-01-2005, 14:43

How do - my first time to this board - please be gentle

I just got my 6630 today, and i cant even get the back off. Can someone please help?

Nice phone - I want it!

I think its has a simular back button thing as mine. Try pushing the button on the back all the way in and then side the cover down while holding it in. New phones, I find, never want the back to come off them.

BTW, what network/plan do you have it on? I want it so much. Symbian version 8 <drools>

Push the little button in on the back and then slide up the back cover (by around half a centimetre). Then (and this is the bit that is probably confusing you, pull the cover off from the top (ie. don't slide it, but pull it backwards off the phone).

The trick is that the back doesn't slide off, it pulls off..but you have to slide it up slightly...

You'll get the hang of it!

No! Don't try to slide it off - it has to be pulled off.
You'll break it by sliding it off....

Thanks peeps.

I was going to upgrade to s.e s700, but got talked into getting 6630. It was the price plans that swayed me and the fact the camera is just as good.

I already have the 6600, (it has a similar button at the back) but i must say this one is VERY nice! I will keep trying!

Lol. I want it so much. I can't stop drooling. I will have to look into it.

I must say though I dont see the point of having video calling when the camera is on the back of the phone???

Good point - didnt think about that one...

Mine came with a stand that you plug the camera into and there is a lense on the front of it so you can watch the screen and be video'd at the same time.

Handy - seeing as i work away from home and my boyf and I can talk to each other and watch at the same time

Examinus · 10-01-2005, 15:21

Sounds good. I've seen the stand but it doesn't look as though you could carry it around in your pocket.

I'm sure your BF will enjoy it just as much as you then

Yeah, its quite big, but will fit in a bag. It would look rather poncy and showy off though if i were to pull it out and start using it on the train!!

Examinus · 10-01-2005, 16:57

Lol, i would show off as much as I could with that phone. Anyway I hope you enjoy it

. I am VERY jealous.
