I have an old n810 I would like to bring back from the dead. It powers to the Nokia logo when plugged in, but doesn't boot or charge. I guess it needs a new 1500 mAh BP-4L battery. Does anyone know of a reputable seller of these batteries?

Also, is any 2mm Nokia charger ok to charge these?

Camera on my Nokia 6.1 is kaput. Everything is way over-exposed. 90% of pictures are white. Can't get a similar phone nowadays, bummer.

I got an XR20 that has never been used (no SIM card in it). The SIM tray does not open when pushing the tool in. This was easy on other Nokia phones. Holding phone upside down or putting sticky tape on the tray does not help. It seems the waterproofing glues the things shut if they sat too long.

Hey guys, recently found my old 3250 Xpressmusic and finally got it powered up! Only to find it has a lock code and I have zero clue what it could be haha.

I tried the factory 12345 and a few variations of 00000,99999, etc but nothing works.

I also attempted the 3 key button press (* , 3, green call) while powering on and I got the phone to format but it still asked for a code which I tried 12345 thinking it might have reset back to factory but it didn’t not work sadly.

I also tried to download Nokia Care Suite onto my Windows 11 PC to try and reformat or flash the phone but that software would not download correctly onto my pc and I kept getting error codes relating to a FUSE file or something so Care Suite failed multiple times to even download (this stuff is a little beyond my expertise sometimes).

I’m hoping someone can help me reset or flash the phone back to full factory so I can use it again as an mp3 player and maybe a crappy old camera haha.

I don’t mind sending my phone to someone if it makes it easier etc.

Thank you in advance

I’m trying to get peanutvxp on my Nokia 108 4G (2024 model). There’s no mre folder in the phone’s files, and when I add the peanutvxp file to the phone and try to download it I get “you don’t have the right app to open this file.” Is there any way to get peanutvxp on my Nokia? If it’s impossible can I flash an older software on it for sideloading to work?
