Please be aware of the consequences and risks that may be result from this process.Phoenix Service Software is a useful flashing which you may use on your NOKIAC5-03 when:. It is bricked - which means it is not starting up or it is stuck at some particular moment (eg. Nokia logo).
Your previous software/firmware update has somehow been interrupted and you cannot turn it on right now. You cannot perform a hard reset operation. Your device is in 'restart loop' (it is restarting over and over again). The normal flashing is not possible on your device.Remember a few thingsThe battery in your device should be fully charged and the applications on your computer should be shut down. Always use the appropriate (and possibly the newest) firmware on your device. What is also VERY IMPORTANT to have in mind is that by performing these steps below you will loose your device's warrenty.

Before using the Phoenix Software you should do the following things:. Install the Nokia Care Suite. Read the product code.
Download Nokia’s firmwareYou can find detailed descriptions in the section. How to flash NOKIA C5-03?. Make sure your battery is charged and your firmware is appropriate. Afterwards dowload the Phoenix software. You can find it here:. Make sure you have the other equipment: USB cable for your phone, Nokia Connectivity Cable Drivers, software files for your phone. For a precaution back up your files and take out any microSD cards.
Connect your phone to your PC using the Micro USB cable. When your computer detects the new device, select the PC Suite or OVI Suite on your phone. Open Phoenix program and move the option 'No connections' to the USB which detects your phone.
Now choose 'Open Product' and pick the type of your device (in the pictures below we will use RM-645). Finally confirm by clicking OK. Go to 'Flashing' and choose 'Firmware update'; find in 'product code' your desired code and click OK when asked to confirm.
Plug in your dead device and click SW Reset or Refurbish. The firmware update instruction should pop up as soon as your computer sees your phone. If it does not happen, disconnect your device and press the Power button for a few seconds. As soon as you feel your phone vibrate, realese the power key and quickly connect it back again. You should be able to see the flashing start now. When you see a window confirming the successfull firmware updare, your device should restart.
Afterwards you may remove the USB cable. If there is a another window on your screen - 'Flashing Completed' - there is a big chance your device's screen will show 'Local Mode', 'Test mode', 'Nokia logo'.
You can switch it off by holding the Power button for a few seconds until you fell it vibrate. After restaring your phone, it should work now. However, if it does not, repeat the flashing process once again.What if it does not work?1. Make sure the software is the same or newer as it was before the flashing process (downgrade is not possible)2. You can try performing it while your battery is not so charged (altough it is not commonly recommended).3.
Try reinstalling Nokia Connectivity Cable Drivers (turn off any PC Suite or OVI Suite)4. Try changing the USB port.
DO NOT use any extention cords or hubs. It is very important to connect your device directly (in case of a stationary computer the best way is to connect it in the back).5. Finally, in case nothing else works, you may try installing softwares with many different product codes (not neccesserily only Polish ones). You can also try using Dead USB in JAF.
E. ezio. ut6. 14 Feb 2012hey buddy i think you should go for nokia 500.its much powerfull than C5-03.here is the diffe. Nokia 500 does have a 1gig processor but still it lags!
You know why? Because it does not have a gpu.
Nokia Pc Suite 2018
Look at nokia n8 it has 680mhz cpu but never lags coz it has got a good gpu. So dont expect donna or such upgrades in nokia 500. And nokia c5-03 is a good phone at this price. People who have this phone plz install customised firmware(cfw) and you will be amazed by its new looks and features. Just google 'cfw for nokia c5-03' and you will know all. Rating 0. Z.

13 Feb 2012Shame on Nokia for manufacturing and selling this piece of junk! Be warned:Powered by the pathetic Symbian - read reviews on Symbian and you'll know what I'm talking about.The software is an absolute nightmare. In order to answer calls using the touchscreen, you first have to unlock the phone using a side button.
Stupid when all you want to do is answer the bloody phone without any fuss! Use the traditional call button if you want to do this, but why have a touchscreen that flashes 'Answer' then?Call records show details for only the last activity (missed/received/dialled) for any particular number. Therefore, if several calls are made to or from a particular number, you can only check details (time of call, for example) ONLY for the last call made, received or missed.This 5 megapixel camera produces extremely poor quality images. My old Samsung mobile with a 3.5 megapixel camera took incomparably better pictures. Only goes to show that higher resolution is not equal to better pictures! Samsung are camera manufacturers and Nokia are not, a fact borne out by the quality of cameras in the phones from these two companies.If you have just made a call to someone in your contact list and want to view their number WITHOUT returning to the contact list, you cannot. Normally, you would hit the call button to bring up the last number dialled.
Data Suite For Nokia C5 03 Pc
In the case of the C5-03, you only get to see the contact name and no other details. To view details, you will have to reopen the contact list and find the name of the person you called.
Sheer idiocy! This phone lacks the basic features of entry level mobile phones (and I’m not even talking smart phones here).You go through a lengthy process to turn off the snooze option and the alarm itself, not good on your nerves when you have just woken up.The touch screen responsiveness is shockingly poor. Nokia uses a cheap screen.The Ovi Suite (the Nokia software for your computer) takes ages to check for updates even with a fast Internet connection.
Data Suite For Nokia C5-03 1
Unsurprisingly then, updating the Ovi Suite AND the phone’s software takes an eternity thanks to the size of the downloads - not good news when Nokia sell widely in underdeveloped and developing countries. Surely they should know that power outages are frequent in these countries (and, in fact, occur several times a day). As power outages are impossible to predict, downloading large amounts of data can be a nightmare. In the event of downloads and installations being interrupted by power failures, there are endless complications with operating the phone.Bottom line?Avoid like the plague. This is undoubtedly the worst phone in its category. Rating 0. F.
