Does Nokia 6030 suuport data cable transfer?

[esumitkumar]

Hi

I have read various posts regd 6030 data cable where some ppl say u cant use data cale to transfer ringtones etc to cell. Here in HK its costing 80 HK$ means 456 rs .But my question is can i transfer ringtones , themes and Wallpapers through this data cable ?

Thanks
Sumit

On the site it says that its got some kind of plug and play connector... I don't know what that refers to and also there does not seem to be any kind of data cable enhancement for sale on the nokia site

[lavan_joy]

I'm also a Nokia 6030 user and wasted my money by purchasing a datacable for that some months ago.

I enquired about this with Nokia customer care and got the following Email from them.

Even I was buying the same N6030 phone 8 months back, But I opted for SE J300i and very happy with that.

[Gaurav]

visited the following website "http://www.opm-2.com/OPM2/" and the software supports connectivity with nokia 6030. but how anyone having idea any new type of cable invented after the above connection.

[esumitkumar]

Hi

If Nokia doesnt support official cable

[deathvirus_me]

Try PC Suite v6.8 ... i faced strange problem with my 6681 with upto v6.6 ....

Anyway ,.. that Nokia reply was a big lie ... my friend uses 6030 .. he can transfer files to his phone .. and can browse the net .... but the phone is an EDGE Class 5 phone .. so the max. supported speed is 177 Kbps ....

[Gaurav]

but how is it possible, I too own nokia 6030 but on the website it doesnot have any data cable, that plug n play connector is for software upgradation.
Please throw some light which software to use for connectivity and what is the cost of that cable.

[esumitkumar]

It seems Nokia 6030 cable is a big mystery......[:)]
Junta plz comment on that cable link which I had posted above...

Tks

[shinepmani]

hi guys,
I am one of thoe guys who bought a datacable for my n6030.The funny fact is I was actually able to use the cable and connect my computer to my mobile.But I recently had to format my harddisk and reinstall the os.After that the computer doesnt recognise my mobile.I figured that with my datacable I installed a driver called pl-2303,a driver which makes a usb-to-serial port,through which I can comunicate with my computer. But now after formating my machine the same drivers doesnt work,I dont know why. I know it must have been something I installed before and dont have it now,but dont know what.

[shinepmani]

Actually I did install nokia cable drivers that come with the pc suite.But still they arent working.

[aptuz]

I think I should say "ITS POSSIBLE". I could atleast get to my cell phone and see whats in it. I bought this DAU-9P/FBUS USB Data Connectivity Cable from ebay. It was expensive though (about $20 with shipping).

And BTW Nokia PC Suite.. its not for Nokia 6030. Basically the software doesnt even support or recognize the device. I tried but no luck.

The ebay guy sent me a trial version of the software that reads the data from Nokia 6030. Also, I recently found that the software can be downloaded from the website (http://www.opm-2.com/download/download.asp?File=OPM2.zip). But this is just a trial version.

Please read the data in the website (http://www.opm-2.com) for more information. But if someone could find the full version or the retail version of the software that would be great (or some cracked version of the software OPM2 v2.9.5.9).

Does anyone have the software ????

[shinepmani]

Actually ( When the datacable worked) I was able to use two softwares to interface with my computer.They were Mobimb v3.1 and opm2. They worked fine. But it is not the interface that is a problem with me,it is the connection. I dont know why it cant recognise the mobile as it did the last time.

[mohitgiri]

all the solution is here use data cable of akasaki n use mobi mb 3.1 version thats supports n6030 full supports thanx

[esumitkumar]

Mohit I had data cable of akasaki and Mobi MB 3.2 but still it doesnt show in My comp .It just plays some sound that USB had been inserted..but after that nothing :(

[basant]

you need usb drive also with this software.

[esumitkumar]

usb drive ?? a separate pen drive basant ?

[mohitgiri]

no no/ in my shopee i hav a data cable of akasaki and mobi mb 3.1 and it fully supports N6030 N6060. i think u r doing some mistakes in installing tha cable driver or some mistake in cable.
if everything is ok then chek ur mobi mb port setting and com choose the correct com

[esumitkumar]

ya ya mohit thanks...can u tell me among options of mobi mb ...which option shud i choose ? thr is some DKU-5 then some FSR cable etc etc..every option i had chosen..it says ..this port is already in use..while i connect akasaki cable to my laptop's USB port...plzzz help ...im screwed by 6030 not getting detected :(

[esumitkumar]

Well brothers..I cant figure out yet how to dload games etc to 6030..so jus went to Mobile Shop nearby and got three games installed in my 6030 "Moto GP,Prince of Persia,Splinter Cell " in 60/- only.....he he :) ....but my 300/- akasaki cable is waste though :(

[neerajvohra]

i think all u need is the correct data cable...my bro owns 6030 and i connected it with datacable
purchased it from grey market ,and cost me 300bucks

[pravardhan]

I bought a data cable for 6030. On its box it's written as Kinz. The cable gets detected, but the phone cannot be recognized by either MobiMB or Oxygen Phone Manager!!!!

So, what could be wrong?????????

[montsa007]

instead use gprs to transfer datd upload to ww.mobango.com
and download on ur fone by wap.mobango.com and input the code
thats all i can help

[caleb]

Although Nokia officially does not have a cable for 6030, u can get a cable 4 Rs.250. You can use ir to download or upload games, ringtones, wallpapers, themes & screensavers from/to ur PC but cannot browse the internet on ur PC with this cable for the simple reason that 6030 does not have a modem inbuilt...my previous phone was a 6030 & I have downloaded games, wallpapers, photos & ringtones.

[ANURAG SHARMA]

I used my 6030 and 6060 with USB data cable and latest Mobi.MB manager.I have installed games and all stuffs sucessfully.Try all u dudes.

[shinepmani]

To connect the cable with the pc all u need is a driver called PL-2303....As we can see only some of the softwares available in the market can be used to connect the mobile to pc...and I am still not sure about the fact that nokia 6030 doesnt have a inbuilt modem,i really doubt that...cause i read in a thread once that some guy is using his n6030 to connect to net through the pc...No one knows the truth....

[codename_romeo]

man i m using nokia 6030 n i can transfer pics,games,mid tones using data cable n cell phone manager......
my cable costed me 150 bucks n works fine(driver cd free with it)

Nokia 6030 DOES NOT have a inbult modem & that is a fact...u may want to check with Nokia to confirm the same...maybe someone made a mistake i.e. typo in the post u read about someone using 6030 to connect to the net.

[Thor]

Ok, digging Up this OLD thread. Sorry for that. But what can I Say , this thread saved ma life!
I have a Nokia 6030. Bough a data cable for 300/- . It worked fine with the driver and MobiMB Mobile Media Browser !
but I lost the Driver CD !!! But as the driver was installed in my PC i cud still use my data cable,
but I realized that as soon as I format my PC again... I will be left high and dry with no driver for the datacable.
Hence I googled quite a bit. Nokia site doesn't mention anything about 6030's capability to connect with PC. SAD.

So after googling with "Data Cable Type for Nokia 6030"
the third link pointed right at this topic ! gaah!! I was so glad !

@shinepmani Thanks a load !!!

Its indeed PL-2303 driver !!! Works great !!

Next Googling of "PL-2303 driver download windows" yielded me loads of results
and the 2nd link http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31

turned out to be my saviour !

Downloaded the ZIP , installed the driver ( I am on WinXP SP2 ) ,and then installed MobiMB Mobile Media Browser ! And it works fine :)

Yippppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Thank you so much Digsters!

Regards,
Lord of Asgard.

[ANURAG SHARMA]

Can anyone tell me that- Is 6030 having GPRS modem for net surfing?

[Thor]

Nah, you cannot surf net from your PC using Nokia 6030.

Hi Illegal, We don't mind.

MobiMB Mobile Media Browser works in Win 98.
http://www.logomanager.co.uk/php/products.php?id=51&section=specs

and PL-2303 driver works in 98 too.

So I think you are safe !
Knock yourself out.

But as far as transferring stuff from your PC, meager 2 MB memory.... thats a real drag !

They will give you a driver CD. The package generally comes with the DataCable and Driver CD. And the CD will be smaller in size, generally CDs are 120 mm in Diameter , these ones are 80 mm in diameter :D , bloody i misplaced it. SO I had to download.
Here is a screenshot of how the cable looks ...

oh okie.. thxn buddy.:) By the way i download some games from net which is .jar file.. am i able to play those games in 6030?? or should i download symbian games??? and how to install symbian and .jar files??? thnx in advance .:D

[Thor]

.jar games run fine, but you should check whether the game is compatible with the set. Sometime you may get the game to run but may find that the whole game doesn't fit in the Screen!! So be careful there !

I haven't tried out symbian games. so no idea, as it is , the cell has too low memory to try anything , anyways I will give you two links :
http://www.masti4india.com/mobile_zone/ringtones.htm
http://gallery.mobile9.com/

Check them out.

thnx yaar:).. by the way how to install those games and themes?? jus cut copy and paste ?? should we extract those .jar files?? .nth files? :confused:

[Thor]

Jar files also come along with a .jad files sometimes...
When they are games just copy them into the Application\Games folder
When some applications just copy them jar and jad files to Applications\Collection Folder.
and .nth are themes no need of extracting them , just copy and paste at Gallery\Themes .

letme know if you find other cool links ok ? Are you on orkut ?

Hi everyone,

I wonder if you can help me, I have a dire situation in which I need to extract sms messages from my nokia 6030.

I am in the middle of a custody case at the moment and have evidence within the phone in the form of txt messages which if used in court could greatly help my case however I cannot seem to find a way to get them off of the phone - my lawyer says if I can get them off the phone into some other format then she may be able to use them in our favour - please if anyone can help at all - it could make all the difference in getting access to my children :(

[QwertyManiac]

Even if a data cable doesn't work, won't giving the mobile itself as an evidence work?

[pravardhan]

Guys, all you need is a correct PL-2303 driver, which i got it in the orkut community of Nokia 6030.

This phone is Nokia S40 Series UI and DOESN'T support sis files.

We can extract sms using Oxygen Phone Manager & send sms using Mobius.

I liked this set for its super data cable connectivity & i loaded 14 games & 3 applications and few ringtones, themes & wallpapers in just 2.1MB

[Thor]

lolz! ppl I found back my lost driver cd ! yey! SO , if anybody needs the driver or such, I can upload and sent it to ye all! Just to inform u. Though , the link I gave in the last pages will work fine.!

maybe sent the SMS to some other phone which has facility of transferring.

[cyberzook]

I bought a CA-45 cable which claims to connect my 6060 to my pc. It cost me Rs 100. The phone is not getting detected from nokia pc suite. The data cable came with a cd. I haven't tried the s/w in there. My basic purpose is to save the sms s inside the phone. Any body with previous experience in this?

[pravardhan]

The Data cable works only with a correct driver & MobiMB or Oxygen Phone manager software.

For the driver go to the Nokia 6030 community in ORKUT & search for the full suite for this mobile. The cable & drivers are same & it also works for Nokia 2626.

[Thor]

Right. I am not sure about oxygen phone manager, but it works fine with MobiMB Mobile Media browser :D . the Cd given to you has the required Drivers. You should install that driver ( for XP or vista ) to get the cable detected by MobiMB :D for further queries feel free to write :D
