Nokia 2300-rm4-Schematics

The Nokia 2300 is a very basic phone. The display is black and white with very low resolution, and there are few features. A radio is included, but it is mono only.

One of the biggest problems with the 2300 is the weird keypad design that uses joined-up and overlapping keys. Not easy to use, not very reliable, and not

recommended!

Actually the Nokia 2300 mobile phone is owned by my wife. I bought it as a birthday present for her. The result, I got more time to get hold of the phone to

observed and have reviewed it. SMS upgrade has gone too far these days especially with Nokia phones. Superb audio quality can be expected from this phone. I like the way the polyphonic ringing tone sounds of this phone. They're distinctive and clear. You can download or compose melodies as well. The FM

stereo radio is excellent. A stereo headset comes with the package, great for hands-free calls and music listening! I have no problem with the reception; it's always in full bars wherever I go. Just one or two keypresses and you can have

the function you need. Of course not all functions, menus, and sub-menus are available in this feature. We all know that phones are getting smarter and smarter these days. And someday the function we thought just another trash of today, will one day just useful as technology advances and that would be also added in this feature. Over-all, the phone is a great improvement intended for low-end-users. If

picture editor feature has been added in this phone, then it would surely surpass the performance of Nokia 33XX series, 2100, and 1100 phones respectively.

Repair NOKIA 3510i / 3530 Circuit

Connecting a nolda 3510i / 3530 display to the parallel port:

The wiring is based on the wiring of optrex 323 and pcd8544-based displays to the parallel port. As i didn't know of any other projects like this (with nokia 351 Oi/3530 displays connected to the parallel port) i had to chose a wiring-'standard' for myself.

C1 Capacitor ego 0.1 uF for stabilisation of display (0.22 uF or other values are fine just as well)

T1 Transistor ego BC547

D1 Diode ego 1N4148

Remarks:

R5, R6, T1, D1 are needed in combination with LED background light only!be warned: without background light the display is hardly readable!

Vio ought to be connected to 1.8V but I did quite well without even connecting it.as always: just because it worked for me doesn't mean that it will work for you!

i used the original SMD-Ieds from the Nokia 3510i cellphone. they needed some value around 3.1V.as i didn't like to generate two voltages, i also connected Vflash to 3.1V (rather than connecting it to the recommended 2.8V)and one again: just because it worked for me doesn't mean that it will work for you! if your display dies in flames don't blame me.

Hardware reset vs. software reset:

to save one wire it is possible to replace the IRES-wire through a RIC-circuit.

part-list is the same as above with the following exceptions: Part# Type Value Annotation

Motorola L 7 Housing

How to Change Your L 7 Housing

You will need a small flathead screwdriver or old sim card, a Torx T6 screwdriver, (I found one at my local sears), your L 7, and the new housing.

So first we take our phone and our new housing. Tum off the phone and remove the battery and sim card. (It is a good idea to put on a semi-soft work surface. I used news papers so as not to scratch my slvr.)

N ow take a small flathead screw driver and be very carefull ... or something flat and plastic so as not to chip the paint

(old sim card), and pry the antenna cover off starting at the side.

After removing antenna cover, we will take our Torx T6 screw driver and remove the six screws holding the front faceplate on?

After removing the six screws, carefully lift off the camera cover and set aside?.turn the phone over and either use the sim card or your fingernails to pull the front faceplate off. It will resist a little but try to pull where you removed the six screws and it will be ok. This is what it looks like when you get the front faceplate off.

? .Mine was kind of dusty so I used a can of air to remove some of the dust?.N ow just snap on your new front faceplate, replace the camera cover, making sure you line up the holes for the screws, and replace the six screws. VERY IMPORTANT»»DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN OR YOU WILL CRACK YOUR NEW FACEPLATE!!! Snap the new antenna cover back on and replace the battery and sim card, and then the battery cover and you are done.

Congrats because you now have a fresh new SLVR. Cheers! Click to Continue Reading .........

• Unc1ip the microphone cover (just lever it out with fingernail) to reveal two more screws. Remove these screws

• With the two screws removed in the above step you can now remove the mic

• Pull the battery compartment away from the rest of the phone and you phone will now be in three main parts, like below, attached by ribbons. The ribbons connect like a plug and socket. Simply lift pull them out to unplug them

• With the ribbon from the battery compartment removed your phone will look like the picture below

• Now unplug the other three ribbons which are attached to the green circuit board.

Your phone will now look like below

• Now remove the two black screws at the top of the phone

2'1."-FeEl-OI 15:53

• Run your fingernail around the edge of the front cover where the silver metal part meets it, shown below, to release the front cover

• The front cover will still be connected but will be loose enough to allow you to twist it round slightly and access two more screws on either side of the phone. Pay careful attention to these screws before removing them. They hold two brass coloured metal clips in place which will pop out when you remove the screws. Just make a mental note of their position for when you put the phone back together

• You can now remove the ribbons which are attached to the top half of the phonelLCD screen

I;

• You'll now have the front part of the phone removed. If you are replacing the LCD we advise you to buy a screen which comes with the entire front part of the phone (sold here http://www.formymobile.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=z8Icd) as the LCD is glued into the front cover. It can be removed, as you'll see below, but you'll need to glue it back in when you put the phone back together, which will be messy.

• To remove the LCD from the front cover gently pry it away. It's glued down so will peel away from the front cover

• The LCD is held in by clips around the edge of the metal frame. Bend the clips back slightly to remove the LCD. Reverse the whole procedure for reassembly

HACKING YOUR MOTOROLA GSM

HACKING YOUR MOTOROLA GSM

Please notice: Information provided here may cause your phone to malfunction. Modifying the software of your GSM Phone is only a personal choice and shown for amateur purposes only. Commercial attempts based on these hardware and software may be possibly illegal. So take the risk yourself.

always had a sympathy in Motorola products,

my first computer Commodore64 were based a Motorola CPU, and it is still assumed as the

computer of all times. Although everyone who's favour of Motorola GSM accepts that these

I-'u •• un", are not physically as strong as Motorola (when you try to drop it on the floor), they are stable in electronics and software and have a system which is 'engineer kind'. So I'm happy

my Motorola and do not have at least a bit of

.L .... 'uu .. that I'm gonna change my mind in the future. wish that if there were much more features on such as calculator, message sender identity, "n"nt,>r of characters left in message editor etc. I

to have a d460, which was much comfortable me, and now a V3690, which is even more

. Also my girlfriend has a V2288, we "' .. "'.+"' .... "'/i it for it's built-in FM Radio and elegant

I complain about some functional lacking of my 0, was unaware that something I could take out already lying in my phone. We already know most of the GSM phones are came in different .u,-,u", ... which have different functions, in fact

the same hardware and even the same nthlU<>"P inside it. If there could be a way to modify software of the phone, then it may be possible to some features which were not included in the purchased version.

As I've searched the web to find something interesting about the phone I had (formerly d460), came across many of the rumours saying that it is possible to modify the phone software and enable some features which are hidden from the user. Traces lead me to the Janus's web site, completely dedicated to the Motorola GSM. There I found information and links to hardware and software required to modify my phone's memory. That's where you should look for information, if you gonna do something like I did. It's the practical information provided here on this page, so you should read through Janus's Motorola pages to get familiar with concepts like 'Test and Clone Cards', 'Transfer Frames', 'Test and Clone Modes' etc. Site has a link to a discussion list on Motorola GSM too, which is useful if you are in search of a particular thing.

What I've found was that it only needed a simple adapter which would connect the phone to the PC, and a software acts as Test and Clone SIM Cards to enable the editing and transferring of the phone memory contents through the PC. When I had the chance, brought the pieces of the interface circuit together, etched a SIM adapter to be inserted

into the phone, connected everything right and ran the emulator. All went right and first I enabled the Engineering Field Options menu, permanent test mode, and then removed the SP-Lock from my phone.

Although new phones are protected against such kind of attempts, I managed to enable permanent test mode and keypad code entry feature on my V3690. Thus it became possible to enable Engineering Field Options menu and others through the keypad of the phone. But unfortunately SP-Lock could not be removed. I found some softwarelhardware promising this can be done on the web, but either their software or hardware were missing in their ZIP files. So the following instructions are only covers the modifications I've done successfully. Again, these are provided for informational purposes and personal amateur use only. You are taking the risk yourself. Tweaking a memory content may cause the phone malfunction, which may only be recovered at a qualified service, and even an electrical problem (such as a short circuit, wrong connection or surge voltage) may lead to an unrecoverable failure requiring a part change.

Adaptet"

Here is the hardware layout of the operation. Interface circuit consists of three transistors and six resistors and so simple to build. It prevents direct connection of the TTL interfaces of both computer and the phone. Computer's serial COMI port (usually where a serial mouse is connected to) is used to connect interface with a female connector. Phone's SIM socket is where the other end of the interface is connected to. A small SIM adapter is used to ease this. It's a PCB board cut as the size of a regular SIM module and contact points are etched on the copper side of it. I've used it as is on V3690 and V2288 and placed in it's credit card size SIM Card frame to be inserted in d460. Since the cables won't fit in, I had to open the d460 and fix the card manually inside it. Lets start with the preparation of the SIM adapter. First you need to have a 300 DPI printout of the sim.tifto be copied onto a PCB. If you want a credit card size version to be used on a d460 like phone, may use this one. After the etching process, drill the holes on it and solder the four wires on it to be connected to the interface PCB. Using a thin ribbon wire makes it easy to install into the phone. Taking care while soldering wires to the adapter PCB is important, since a rough soldering may cause short circuits between the contacts of the SIM socket of the phone. Just take a look at the illustration below to get an idea. First, tin the copper layer with a thin coating of solder (do not overheat the copper, otherwise it may be detached from the PCB). Insert the pre soldered wire into the hole while it's tip is

aligned with the surface of the copper layer. Then repeat the soldering to fix the wire into the thin solder layer. If you do it right, there should be formed a smooth contact surface.

PBC design for ASIM interface I ,.,.,--

Here is the completed interface and SIM adapter

You'll probably have to open d460 to insert the thick adapter with the card

Placing adapter in V3690 and connecting interface to COMI

With the basic skills of amateur electronic, upon completion of the parts (Adapter and Interface) now you may be able to connect your phone to your PC. Insert SIM adapter into the phone, connect Interface to the PC and run the SIM card emulator ASIM 3.1 written by the ANDROID. Notice that there are wrong PCB designs in the ASIM package. So use the one I gave above. Apply +5V to the Interface (in fact it runs without this external +5V, I tested this on d460, V2288 and V3690 successfully) and load a SIM file into the emulator (preferably sim.dat) and start emulation. Tum on your phone and enter the pin stated in the sim.dat file. By holding the # key for three seconds, your phone will be in the 'Test Mode'. Note that if your phone is locked to a specific service provider, it will ask for a special code. In this case, you may try to remove it (only on older phones) or jump directly to the step: enabling permanent test mode. Now you can use test mode commands described on the Janus's pages. Here you can find a copy of the list. With c1one.dat, you may enter into the Clone Mode and transfer frames from the phone memory into your computer. I've backed up all five frames this way before making any changes to my d460. But V3690 and V2288 only permits the transfer of first two frames and even they are incomplete, so making any changes on new phones have much risk. With the Medit software, you have the chance to translate the contents of the frames into the human readable text. Here are some features added to my V3690, which were not on

the original state. It is also strange that V2288 has a Clock with Date, just like in V3690 and it is easily enabled by the keypad command pppl23plp (letter p stands for the square character displayed by holding down the * key)

V3690 in Clone Mode

After Permanent Test Mode is enabled, it becomes easy to use pppXXXpXp type commands whenever wanted. For example use ppp278plp to enable EDIT MUSIC RINGTONE ... Please remember that enabling a function that does not actually implemented on your phone may lock it.

Some of the enabled hidden features on my V3690, of course internet access is not possible

Yes! V2288 not only have FM Radio, it also has the clock with date ...

If you carefully read through the user manual of the ASIM, you may try to transfer factflag.bin frame into your phone to enable 'Permanent Test Mode' which makes it possible to enter Test Mode by holding down the # key for about three seconds, whenever wanted, without the need of the special Test Card or the emulator. Also you can remove the SP-Lock from the phone (only worked on the d460, not on the V3690 and V2288 so do not try) with the spunlock.bin frame.

Once the Permanent Test Mode enabled, you can shut the phone off, remove the adapter and exit the emulator. Turn the phone on (with your own SIM Card inside) then use it's keypad to enter the codes essential to enable Engineering Field Options menu: pppOOOplp pppOOlplp ppp070pOp pppl13plp. Now there should be a new menu item in your phone's tree, 'Eng Field Options'. There you can found many parameters belongs to the network, active and passive mode operating status of your phone. Parameters are explained in detail on the Janus's web site so I do not include them here. Only a few of them are interesting to mention here: While a call is active (it is determined by the timer displayed on the screen, set by the 'Show time per call' menu option) enter the engineering menu (you may call a toll free service to do this, but check if the timer is displayed, otherwise a 'Busy, try later' message appears). Find the item 'TimeAdv' and

note the displayed value near it (for example: TimeAdv 08). Since the GSM system works on a very high frequency, it is needed to adjust the delay of the signals travel between the radio station's antenna and your mobile unit. Thus this parameter exists which is obtained by dividing a proposed maximum communication distance of35 kilometers into 64 units. It results in 546.875 meters per unit (practically accepted as 550 meters). With the example above it corresponds to 8 x 550 = 4400 meters and this gives the minimum distance to the radio station's antenna from the point you are at. Since the next step is 9 x 550 = 4950 meters, you can predict that you are at somewhere between 4400 and 4950 meters distance to the antenna.

Active cell parameters belongs to the current cell your phone is listening to. RxLevel indicates the received signal strength of the active channel in dB. Cell ID parameter can also be read from the System Parameters menu. This way you may have an idea on how many active cells are commonly listened by your phone where you are living.

Active channel and Cell ID numbers

You may trace the six most powerful adjacent cells, which are candidate for a cell switch, in case your current signal loses it's strength. There may not be six cells in the list all the time, only detectable channels will be displayed. These may also not strong enough, for

example a message 'Not Synched' tells that the channel is detectable but the digital signal cannot be decoded properly yet.

'Not Synchronized' and 'Broadcast Control Channel Decoding' conditions

Do not hesitate to e-mail me for questions that their answers cannot be found here or in mentioned source pages. If you have more data on the subject, or achieve improvements in modifications, I will be glad to receive information from you.

Repair Motorola T-720i 2

The $25 package included ALL the plastic pieces for the phone (no screws or electronic components of any kind) and express shipping from China. The fit and molding of the pieces were very clean ... a good sign that the piece we needed would fit :-)

For this repair, we needed to remove the frame with the broken hinge. This was the frame surrounding the keypad. The only way to remove the frame was to disassemble the unit from the rear. We were pretty sure the phone would come apart easily ... we just had to go slow and not force anything.

Once all the obvious pieces (back cover, battery, screws) were removed, we started looking for catches and other things that "clicked" into place. There was one on each side

that held the frame in position. A gentle wedge using a flathead screwdriver freed the rear frame from the main body ... and access to the guts was granted.

The most important connector we had to locate was the one connecting the LCD to the electronics (red arrows). Once disconnected, all of the circuit boards were easily removed from the casing.

The keypad was in one piece and was easily lifted from the frame. We just had to be careful not to rip the LCD connector when removing the kepad frame from the main unit. The photo below shows a closeup of the broken hinge. It was now clear that the hinge broke due a stress fracture resulting from years of use ... we saw a hairline fracture on the opposite hinge in the same location.

To re-attach the new keypad frame ... we first threaded in the LCD connector, then slid the hinge into place. We had to push down the pin using a screwdriver, maneuver the hinge into position, and wiggle the frame until we heard the pin click into place.

We reassembled all of the components, replaced the battery, hit the power button, and held our breath. We then heard the familiar T-Mobile tone as the phone came to life ... project completed.

Like any project... we did end up losing something along the way. If you look closely, you will see something missing ...

We have gone through a lot of cell phones here at RainyDayMagazine. Some because we switched carriers. Some because we wanted the newer technology (built-in camera, web access, etc ... ). Some because we just got tired of them.

A few years ago, we got a few of the Motorola T720i phones with our T-Mobile service

( ... somebody here had a crush on Catherine Zeta-Jones) and have been pretty happy with them.

A few weeks ago, for no apparent reason, the joint (see red arrow) on one of the phones totally disintegrated.

T-mobile was no help ... they suggested we upgrade to the new RAZR phone (which amazingly enough, there was a one day special., how lucky for us!)

We thought it was excessive to toss a completely good phone just because of a bit of broken plastic. So we did what any geek would do ... got onto EBay to see what we could find.

Repair Nokia 918p

• HammerPhone

• The Hammer Phone was part experiment, part product ofbordom gone out of control, part imitation.

•

• The experimentation part is with Rust-Oleum Hammered Black Spray Paint that my brother had been using for one of his refinishing projectm and it so happened that he had some left over when he was finished. The part of boredom gone bad is a few weeks when saying I had nothing to do would be an understatement. I've been living in a painfuly small, overpriced rental house in a fairly crumby part of town after my move (that will be remedied soon after I post this). The miitation is because of one of Dr. Bob's superhuman like mods, a Nokia Cell Phone (usualy a fellow Mac Hacker like myself). In the mod he takes his phone and swaps out every one of the SMT LEDs, which he said is like "soldering grains of sand", that mod can be found here. Unfortunatly I haven't gotten around to ordering any 0603 packege LEDs to put into this mod (they will be blue, what else goes well with techno black?)

• As is needed for any truly good paint job, I opted for a total dissesembly, which was supprisingly easy. I shouldn't even bother with illustraiting the take apart for such an old phone (Nokia 918p) but since I shot the film I'll go ahead and post it.

• First off is remove the battery. If you can't do this, put down the phone and never touch a cell phone again, better yet don't touch any electronics with a battery again. But if your like me and that just inspired you push down on the button and slid it out.

•

• Now that the battery is out you're going to have to remove 6 screws, all of them a with a small torx head (6 I think, maybe 8) I got a set of small plastic handled screw drivers from wallmart with small torx heads and it works fine for these small electronics. But anyways, 2 are holding the small piece of plastic with "nokia" engraved on it the other 4 are holding the electronics in place. To paint the

phone plastics these are the only screws you have to remove so put them aside, somewhere where you won 't loose them.

•

• Now remove the electronics. They are attached to the speaker, so you need to fold it out to the right (looking from the battery side of the phone). Then pry the connector out carefuly. This will free the electronics and you can set them aside. You'll also want to remove the plastic buttons, the white sheet that are the numerical pad and the power button. Again set these aside unless you want to paint them.

•

• Remember that these are delicate electronics, with res. So make sure you store them in an antistatic materal, I just used a memory storage bag I had laying around .

•

• Now you've finished take apart, and you should have a thin faceplate, the battery, and a small piece with "NOKIA" engraved on it that you want to paint. Some people won't want to paint the battery but I'll deal with this in a moment.

•

• Unless you have x-ray vision you don't want that screen being painted, and to be brutaly honest with you I don't have xray vision. I also did this at the spur of the moment and didn't have a ton of painting supplies on me. No problem, I just used some clear tape. two or three strips on the screen and a little egding with a sharp knife and I was ready to paint the main part, however this still left the battery,

and I wasn't in the mood to do a mod .

•

• This wasn't even needed, but to quoite a wise individual "better safe than sorry" and if the paint did slip down to the contacts I didn't want to deal with it. A couple pieces of clear tape worked fine here as well.

•

• I don't have any painting photos, but what ever you use make sure it works with plastics and RTFM. Easy enough, and cheaper, to do it right rather than twice. I laid down two coats if I remember right, and then let it sit overnight. Then I came

back to but first I had to take off the masking .

•

• I used a thin, nearly knife like flat head screw drive to probe for the tape edges then just pealed it off. And it looked fine.

•

• With the masking removed, and the paint dried all I had to do was reassemble, basicaly take apart in revece, just make sure the keys are in. The power button is small and doesn't attach to anything and the key pad can come up on its own. Nothing major tho'. Also make sure you reconnect the speaker. Just as a side note I did come back later and hit it with a glossy clear coat for extra protection, but I didn't mask anything off. The plus to this is that it got rid of a few of the nasty scratches the phone had in the beginning.

•

• Now that its reassembled and looking great make sure you didn't kill it. I didn't care about the phone in the first place as it was from an old service and most places probably won't service it anyways.

• The next step for this phone is changing the LEDs to blue, and then seeing about service for it. Still its a fun little project that helped save my sanity.

~-=:;=~~~~r=:::::~~~_1 (digits in brackets show the marks in the

Type 2 following pictures)

4

• type 1:

o the display is connected to the circuit board [2] using metallic pins [1]

o leds are soldered on the other side of the circuit board [3]

o they enlight the display through holes in the circuit board [3]

o the display has 8 pins

o pin #1 is rightmost (rear view of display, connectors at the bottom line)

o tiny cables could be

soldered directly onto the metallic pins

o recommentation: design a circuit board for leds and display connector on your own because the circuit board can hardly be recycled

o update: some displays use a different method to connect the display module to the circuit board: contact pads and a separate "transmitter". it should be possible to solder wires directly onto the contact pads or to use an elastomer

• type 2:

o the display is connected to the circuit board [2] using an elastomer ('lcdconnector' or 'rubber pad with conducting joints') [1]

o leds are soldered on the same side of the circuit board [3] underneath the position of the display

o on the other side of the circuit board there are no electronic parts

o the display itself is "clipped" [4] onto the circuit board

o the display has 9 pins (additional possibility to connect an external oscillator)

o pin #1 is rightmost (rear view of display, elastomer at the bottom line)

Type 1

o the circuit board of the cellphone can be 'recycled' by simply cutting out the interesting part (see picture below)

Type 2

different display types in bigger view + pin 1 positions

ad type 2: recycling the circuit board using a 'dremel' (or similar). red lines indicate where to cut through

ad type 2: i used a flex cable because i damaged the connector pad. as all leds are wired together, you only have to find two positions where to solder the wires so that the leds can be connected. i drilled two tiny holes through the circuit board (red arrows) and soldered a

wire directly to a cathode and the other wire to an anode

connecting a pcd8S44-based display to the parallel port:

intro

the initial wiring is based on the wiring of an optrex 323 to the parallel port. as i didn't know of any other projects like this (with pcd8544-displays connected to the parallel port) i had to chose a wiring-'standard' for myself.

updates

2004-04-29

a severe mistake is now corrected: the pin-order was swapped in the photos (and at two positions in the description)!

when you look at the display in rear view with connectors at the bottom-line, pin 1 is rightmost (not leftmost)!

but: ascii arts in the source code of the library (serdisp_specific_pcd8544 .h) did not contain this mistake!

2004-11-28

when reviewing the source code i noticed that signal 'CS' is never used and may be safely connected to GND. i updated circuits and descriptions to reflect this (CS slipped in from optrex323 when i adapted it's driver for pcd8544).

note: the functionality of serdisplib is NOT affected through this update (because CS wasn't used anyway)

2005-02-12

some pcd8544-based displays (especially newer ones) run unstable ifVout is not connected. inserting a capacitor avoids this. thanks to Michael Biilte for explaining this problem to me

added circuits using hardware reset (RIC-circuit) instead of IRES-wire
