[RajanPERT 0]

Here is the Review of the Mobile of B & W Category.

look and feel

very small, black and white display with a white backlight and this model is also has an integrated flash light like LG RD 6130. Pressing the UP key will activate it. You can also change the panel of this phone.

Weight

just 83 Grams (light weighted)

Speaker

hands free speaker, To activate it, press the top right button twice and a room full of people can talk to the person at the other end.

Keypad

Enhanced pip height on key-5 for the visually impaired (>0.4mm). The key in this model is fairly large as compare to other models of NOKIA in GSM. Hence it easier to handle. This model has joint key like 1100 model.

Picture Frame

It has a picture frame on the back cover and as is being advertise by the nokia. But i don't, why NOKIA do so.

Ring tones

16 - chord polyphonic ring tones, much melodious. much better than LG Phones. the ring tones are MIDI and nokia’s property tones.

Picture Messaging

Does not have any information, if any one please help.

Games

three preloaded games Snake II, Kart Racing, and Space Impact II.

SMS

It also has the predictive data entry and preloaded templates enables you quickly send you our message. SMS distribution list enables us to send messages to multiple recipient.

Voice Command

It support Voice Command dialing, It helps quicker dialing to the desired person without the struggle of pressing keys.

Battery

It has a talk time of upto 1.30 - 2 hrs and a stand by time of about 2 days to 3 days.

Rworld

Only Text Based Application Support

Built-In Calling Card Facility

What most people dont know, is that this has a built-in calling card facility , very useful for those prepaid users who use the Reliance India Calling card. (Those prepaid users who don’t, please start using it! you can make calls really cheap from the card).To use a calling card, we have to append *375 to the number. That means most of us either store the number as *375 (then we cant use it for SMS) or store the numbers separately twice (one with *375 and one without). (It is not confirm, this number may be *390.)But in this handset, you can just hold the call button for 2 secs and the words "card call" is automatically displayed on the screen and it uses your Calling Card to call instead of your normal Prepaid Account.

Rconnect

I read somewhere in the RIMWEB that it has great RConnect feature with a very fast speed by use of

Drawbacks

It has one drawback: everytime you make a call it will show the place you are in on the screen! you will have to select ’’Exit’’ (the top right button) every time to access the functions like mute, loudspeaker etc. This is a minor irritant. And also doesn't support R World Video and Audio Application. So Aaj Tak or NDTV or Other video clips not displayed there. But it may not a great a problem of a simple user.

Thanks for the Review

First Thanks to Mukul and Mods!

I found some thing more interesting about the nokia 2112.

1. Resolution

95X65 Mono Black and White

2. Dimension

102.4 X 42.2 X 21.5 mm

3. Phone Book and Redialing Facility

It store up to 250 entries. Last number redial from dialed called list for Quick recall. Speed dialing for 8 preset names using key 2 to 9.

4. Changable Text Size

User changeable text size option to enable u to see more lines of text while composing an SMS.

5. Voice Command

As i type in previous post. it also help to activate specific function without the hassel of pressing several buttons.

6. Something About Memory (May be Draw Back)

The following feature in this phone may share memory: phone book, text message, ringtones in gallery menu, Calendar, To do notes, Java Games and other application (Not defined). Using any such feature may reduce the memory available for any feature sharing memory. this is specially true with heavy use of any of the features, Although some feature may have a certain amount of memory. Specially allotted to them in addition to the amount of memory shared with other features. For Examples:

Saving many contacts may take all of the shared memory and your phone display a message that the memory is full. In this case, delete some of the information or entries stored in the shared memory feature before continuing.

Thanks and Take Care!

PS: Again some request, PLEASE Someone ADD THE ACCESSORIES INFORMATION WHICH COME WITH THE MOBILE PACK. still waiting.

HI

Since they have started charging r world not ever once i have connected to r-world.I really feel Reliance have backstabed the customers,at least they should have given few free services.for a ring tone i heard that Rs 10 are deducted.

Regarding nokia 2112 the sms capacity is around 90 totla if u store sent messages the capacity is shared.

Edited September 27, 2005 by Vishal Gupta

You are right Khaja, I agree with you.

Hello,

I am a DAPO user and haven been jusing the RD 2030 since i lost it 2 months back n now am using Nokia 2112... Its great experience using Nokia only for few things am confused with...

1) THe SMS capacity as u ppl say is 90, but i saw theres n option of Archives folder or My folders where i can transfer my read msgs.... How do i transfer ?? does neone know how to transfer the msgs to the personal folders....

2) It is said 2112 has Poly Ringtone support... but whenever i download ne ringtone from Net i have to send NRT msg not POLY to recv tones which seem to be MONO...

Pls help

[RajanPERT 0]

@amitpadhye!

As far as i know the NOKIA 2112 also supports poly tones. But i did not check it on net i.e. download from NET.

@Kaja

Regarding your reply, U can check the service of the R World (specially R Surf). As in my previous post, I want to know whether R Surf is accessible or not. To check this, start the R World and click on More Services and check whether it contains R Surf option or not. This type accessing of R World is not chargeable. R World will only chargeable when u click on any service or use any service, which have symbol or sign M or U or E.

Waiting for your reply.

Thanks and Take Care!

Also one thing i found that day is this handset is prone to work abruptly if comes in contact with water ... That day i kept my mobile in my rain jacket .. some rain water make my cell go dead... when i switched it on.. only the white light used to appear .. then after somtime the cell used to start n then off on its own...

I went home.. opened the handset cover n then using hair dryer i dried all the moisture from inside n then it started working again....

You are lucky, your PCB did not short circuit.

[enticer86 0]

i wanted to know one thing though----can i buy 2112 from nokia n then put a garuda connection in it?

[Mukul 0]

No you cannot, All Branded phones like Nokia, LG and Samsung CDMA which are sold for Reliance are pre pragrammed to work with Reliance Service only.

[enticer86 0]

Gr8!!!!I did not expect such stupid piece of knowledge frm a RIMWEB member......I meant that can i buy Nokia 2112 wid reliance n then format it, then i can use it wid MTNL's garuda....

For those who dont know, U can format ur nokia CDMA sets, if u r really fed up wid reliance,but my experience says, Reliance is the best

[amitbt22 2]

Well enticer i am fed up of reliance Can u explain d formatting process.

[enticer86 0]

Its illegal, i think.But the process involves formating the nokia fone so that it loses software of reliance. Then u can put anyother software like for TATA's indicom or the cheapest MTNL Garuda...It involves use of a code, which, i m sorry, i cant provide u since i think its illegal

[supernova 47]

ya its illegal...........but its being done openly in grey market everywhere

Can anyone tell me how to activate call waiting in Nokia 2112?

[amarnath135 0]

Can anyone tell me how to activate call waiting in Nokia 2112?

If u call up n ask CC they say this service is permanently withdrawn for prepaid. But u try using *311 for activating. It activates after many tries, this has happened for me.

[ctrl_alt_del 0]

Service withdrawn??? All my friends who are using RIM handsets of LG and Samsung have this feature and it's working without a hitch. They didn't even had to activate it! It came pre-activated.

[Arun 795]

It doesn't seem to work for some, as discussed here

[tssaravananone 0]

Friends is it possible to connect external antenna in NOKIA2112 just like in LG2030
