Howdy!
I got a Nokia 6280 this monday, and there is one thing that really annoys me that I just can't seem to sort out. Is there any way to define the time before the display's light will turn off?
By default, the display goes black in 10 seconds if you're not touching the phone. You have to either press a button, or slide the lid to turn the light back on. Personally I would like to change this value to 30 seconds or more.
Any help appreciated! |

6280 is full with bugs, almost every 3rd fone in the nokia service is a 6280, there are rumours of a recall ( not official info ). gonna check the bug u mentioned, tomorrow i have to go to the service anyway. keep u updated.

Thank you!
There is a timeout setting for the screen saver, but that's the closest thing I can find. I'm not sure you could call it a bug, but the timeout for the backlight should be longer than 10 secs, or even better being able to change. |

I've been browsing thru all settings I can find. Even turning off power saving-mode doesn't change this...
Btw, it's a 3-branded phone.

@servous i checked it for u, didnt find any solution for your problem, i tested the 3 branded one. anyway, as i mentioned, this model has so many bugs, that no wonder, if it would be one of those. did u noticed, that the display is full of dust in a week?

i have the 6280 and am not happy atall.
within 12 hours i noticed one small dust spec and thot it was a dead pixel.
it wouldnt go away no matter how hard i tried.
it has now been 6 days and the phone has more dust unders it screen than undre my bed.thers absolutely no way to remove it.
I have the vodafone branded model (big mistake) it has all the usuall vodafone crap, and none of the unique features of the phone. it has no PTT or IM service as shown in nokia pictures. I am sure there is much more i i could be bothered gettin anooyed and parinoid over it.
I am returning it in 2 days time thanks to a very helpfull vodafone in store manager. i am hoping to change the phone completly, if not hopefully vodafone three and nokia will all wise up to see this is yet another pathetic attemet at a slider phone from Nokia.
Anyone know about the nokia n80 and n70 phones. Are they any good and are they beter than the 6280? i no that the n80 would mean waiting till april/may but then even after that i would probally get the same low quality sliding mechanism and poorly made screen. appart from that the camera is ace and the UI is the normal nokia thing.
It would be ace if it had S60 OS maby it will after the recall? (pretty sure there wil be one) Fingers crossed!!!
If your thinking about buying this phone hopefully i will have persauded you the oppisite during your time of insanity. lol.
Overall Nokia and Vodafone have cocked up big time.
Does the Three Version have half the features removed also?
Oh and by the way does anyone else have the annoying problem of whilst calling,using the mps, making a video call, using camera,using the voice recorder, using the callender and sending texts (well to be honest the whole phone) does yours black out and go into standy by or off? and my simcard always fails registration or it wont pick up reception or select network. not the sims fault as i tested it in my reliable gx30i!
Nokia I have one thing to say about this phone : Good Day to you sir! |

n70 is a nice fone, but way too much plasticimo as 6680 ( its still the best for me ). nice cam, great features, very good reception. n80 isnt out yet, i am bit afraid of that slider solution and the weak battery. we ll see.

in the "second" edition of 6280 nokia solved the problem to avoid, that under the screen gets dust easily, lets hope they leraned their lesson and we wont suffer of it in n80.

that bug is caused by the "3" barnding u got in your fone. afaik there is no upgrade yet, so u have to live with it. unfortunately many 6280 have got that problem, every 3rd fone in the service list of the local nokia service is a 6280...

oh, well then its probably the same branding bug, as at "3". well, i tested only the "3" version, some of them had the same problem. so it could be, that the hw of 6280 has got some bugs aswell...
