After more than 7 years of service, my Nokia 3100 now refuses to find any network at all anymore... *sigh*
I don't want to give up on this great piece of phone (Yes, Nokia did make good, reliable phones back then), and stumbled over a great collection of 3100 series service manuals and solution-documentation-collections:
Reading this sounds a bit like CB-radio of truckers
Here's an excerpt:
<KHALIFA>: "man r u new to hardware.... coz with 398 posts u shouldnt b asking these silly questions............ any ways.... mjolner is hagar.....no u cant u 6610,7250, helga..... models in which u ill find mjolner n P.A. r .... 3650/60, 6600,3100/20,1100,2300,2600,ngage QD,6100.

...continued:

<KHALIFA>: "plz light heat uem may be yours problem is slovenew comers r recommended to read the above matter carefully than post"
Pure poetry.
