Signal Drop Solution for 6210 - GSM-Forum

schwantz · 03-17-2002, 07:22

I have been having problems with my 6210,
for ages losing its signal all the time.
The problems i had was the signal,
would just drop to nothing.
Also during a call if you moved the phone around,
the signal would break up.
I have sussed out the cause of it now.
On the back of the phone is a antenna socket (With a rubber bung in it).
This socket has a changeover type thing in it which disconnects,
the internal antenna when you plug something into it.
The problem on my phone was the changover part playing up.
As i never use the socket i just soldered a thin piece of wire,
to the top and bottom pins on the antenna socket and it cured all my problems

If you have a look at the attached picture,
you will see two highlighted points with a red dot.
You need to solder a thin piece of wire to link these two points.
Keep the wire as thin as possible and remember,
to use a small soldering iron.
It is very easy to f**k,
the phone up if you poke the soldering iron in the wrong place.
All the little surface mount components have a habit of falling off,
the pcb if you get too close to them.

Thanks to Dave

cheers Schwantz, I'm giving it a go now - my 6210 has been back to Nokia twice now for this fault - both times they say No Fault Found - hope it works. I'll post back here with results.

Cheers,

My 3310 is absolutly new (1month), but after 10 times of flashing/reflashing it began to drop the signal and break the talk sometimes
