How to avoid re-entering the time on changing the sim in nokia 6600? [modified]

Hi CPians, When ever i change the sim in my nokia 6600, it almost always ask me to re-enter the time(as it has lost the previous time), is there any way/software to resolve that, so that it should not ask to re-enter the time. -- modified at 10:15 Monday 23rd July, 2007

I dont think so you are able to keep the time in mobile's memory. B'cos when we remove the battery the clock will reset. But some mobile has option to get the time from the service provider. Please check it out

Thanks for reply, but in some mobiles(Sony Ericsson etc) save the time and some one doesn't need to reset the time when he/she changes the sim.

We do have a non volatile card based time backups. My cell Nokia 6670 has never asked if u replace the SIM/battery for some 15 mins. If you took longer than that it will ask. As well if you are replacing the memory card; even within one minute it will ask for the new time. We ofcourse do have time updating services from the Service Provider but most of the time it lags beyond our time :)

Hi Mushq, how old is your Nokia 6600 phone? I had same the same issue on 3 nokia phones i owned. I can remeber that at the beginning it worked fine when I changed the sim in my phone. I had to remove the storage battery but it had still power supply to keep the time in RAM. But within a year it stopped working. Maybe a little internal battery or something ran out of power. Had this problem on my old Nokia 3330, N-Gage an now on my N70. One hint from me. Switching the sim within 3 seconds worked on my N-Gage, no re-enter of the time was needed. :-D Don't know if it still works. regards pdluke

The obvious solution is to buy another phone. Just in case it wasn't immediately obvious, do NOT buy another phone just like the one you have. This message brought to you by Obvious Technical Solutions, LLC. At OBT, we live the phrase "If it hurts when you do that, then don't do that."

Exactly how difficult is it to just enter in the current time and move on with your day?

Well, It seems you have same problems with me. I install some application "TimeSync" that always synchronize date and time with some server in internet every time i turn on my cellphone. It cost you a penny because you must using GPRS when synchronizing. The bad side is,TimeSync runs on Windows Mobil cellphone, but i think there's similar application that run on symbian.

This exactly depends on how they designed the hardware. In some case, the volatile information is stored in something like CMOS as in the case of PC. In other cases, the information is not considered crucial and handled over to user input, as it happens in your handset. This all is stored in HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) or beyond. And you have virtually no mean to reach there, especially in case of low profile controller devices like handsets. Java and other languages stand on builtin OS. They can't reach therein. ________________________________________ To Learn is to Change
