This document is intended for use by qualified service personnel only.
• IF THE DEVICE CAN BE INSTALLED IN A VEHICLE, CARE MUST BE TAKEN ON INSTALLATION IN VEHICLES FITTED
WITH ELECTRONIC ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND ANTI-SKID BRAKING SYSTEMS. UNDER CERTAIN FAULT
CONDITIONS, EMITTED RF ENERGY CAN AFFECT THEIR OPERATION. IF NECESSARY, CONSULT THE VEHICLE DEALER/
MANUFACTURER TO DETERMINE THE IMMUNITY OF VEHICLE ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS TO RF ENERGY.
• THE PRODUCT MUST NOT BE OPERATED IN AREAS LIKELY TO CONTAIN POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES,
FOR EXAMPLE, PETROL STATIONS (SERVICE STATIONS), BLASTING AREAS ETC.
• OPERATION OF ANY RADIO TRANSMITTING EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING CELLULAR TELEPHONES, MAY INTERFERE
WITH THE FUNCTIONALITY OF INADEQUATELY PROTECTED MEDICAL DEVICES. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN OR THE
MANUFACTURER OF THE MEDICAL DEVICE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. OTHER ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT MAY
ALSO BE SUBJECT TO INTERFERENCE.
• BEFORE MAKING ANY TEST CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SWITCHED OFF ALL EQUIPMENT.
Cautions
• Servicing and alignment must be undertaken by qualified personnel only.
• Ensure all work is carried out at an anti-static workstation and that an anti-static wrist strap is worn.
• Ensure solder, wire, or foreign matter does not enter the telephone as damage may result.
• Use only approved components as specified in the parts list.
• Ensure all components, modules, screws and insulators are correctly re-fitted after servicing and
alignment.
• Ensure all cables and wires are repositioned correctly.
• During testing never activate the GSM transmitter without a proper antenna load, otherwise the GSM PA
may be damaged.
This product is of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below
will help you to fulfil any warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for many years.
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that
will corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can be damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage
batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When it warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can form
inside, which may damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone.
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper operation.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate regulations governing radio devices.
All of the above suggestions apply equally to the product, battery, charger or any accessory.
Nokia requires that service points have sufficient ESD protection (against static electricity) when servicing
the phone.
Any product of which the covers are removed must be handled with ESD protection. The SIM card can be
replaced without ESD protection if the product is otherwise ready for use.
To replace the covers ESD protection must be applied.
All electronic parts of the product are susceptible to ESD. Resistors, too, can be damaged by static electricity
discharge.
All ESD sensitive parts must be packed in metallized protective bags during shipping and handling outside
any ESD Protected Area (EPA).
Every repair action involving opening the product or handling the product components must be done under
ESD protection.
ESD protected spare part packages MUST NOT be opened/closed out of an ESD Protected Area.
For more information and local requirements about ESD protection and ESD Protected Area, contact your local
Note: A new battery's full performance is achieved only after two or three complete charge and
discharge cycles!
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear out. When the
operating time (talk-time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge the battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer. Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to
a charger for longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused a fully charged
battery will discharge itself over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge.
For good operation times with Ni-Cd/NiMh batteries, discharge the battery from time to time by leaving the
product switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the battery discharge facility of any approved accessory
available for the product). Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or
pen) causes direct connection of the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery) for example
when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery
or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°
F). A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged.
Batteries' performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Dispose of batteries according to local regulations (e.g. recycling). Do not dispose as household waste.
Our policy is of continuous development; details of all technical modifications will be included with service
bulletins.

Bad conditions often cause bad pictures. Therefore, the camera operation has to be checked in constant
conditions or by using a second, known-to-be-good Nokia device as reference. Image quality is hard to
measure quantitatively, and the difference between a good and a bad picture can be small. Some training
or experience may be needed to detect what is actually wrong.
When checking for possible errors in camera functionality, knowing what error is suspected significantly
helps the testing by narrowing down the amount of test cases. The following types of image quality problems
are common:
• Dust (black spots)
• Lack of sharpness
• Bit errors
Taking and evaluating test pictures
When
• Avoid bright fluorescent light, 50/60Hz electrical network or high artificial illumination levels
• If the phone is hot, let it rest for a while before taking the picture
• Make sure the optical system is clean
• Use highest possible resolution
• Make sure the light is suffiecient (bright office lightning)
• Do not take the picture towards light source
• Be as still as possible when taking the picture
• Distance should be at least 40cm, 1-2m is recommended
When
• The center of the picture is sharper than the edges
• The image may be blurred, though it does not show in the viewfinder
• Analyse the picture from your PC monitor, full colour setting is recommended
• If possible, compare with a picture of the same motive taken with a similar Nokia device

BB Troubleshooting and Manual Tuning Guide
Audio troubleshooting
Introduction to acoustics troubleshooting
Note: Always make sure all openings are clean and all contact pads are intact and make contact. If
audio still does not work, please continue to the electronic audio troubleshooting (2nd diagram
where applicable).
Acoustics design ensures that the sound is detected correctly with a microphone and properly radiated to
the outside of the device by speaker(s). The acoustics of the phone includes three basic systems: earpiece,
Integrated Hands Free (IHF) and microphone.
The sound reproduced from the earpiece readiates through a single hole on the front cover (A-cover). The
sound reproduced from the IHF speaker radiates from a single sound hole located 3 cm below the power key.
The microphone is located at the hinge, next to the system connector.
For a correct functionality of the phone, all sound holes must be always open. When the phone is used, care
must be taken not to close any of those holes with a hand or fingers. The phone should be dry and clean,
and no objects must be located in such a way that they close any of the holes.
Audio troubleshooting test instructions
Differential internal earpiece outputs can be measured either with a single-ended or a differential probe.
When measuring with a single-ended probe each output is measured against the ground.
Internal handsfree output is measured using a current probe, if a special low-pass filter designed for
measuring a digital amplifier is not available. Note also that when using a current probe, the input signal
frequency must be set to 2kHz.
The input signal for each loop test can be single-ended.
Required equipment
The following equipment is needed for the tests:
• Oscilloscope
• Function generator (sine waveform)
• Current probe (Internal handsfree PWM output measurement)
• Phoenix service software
• Battery voltage 3.7V
Test procedure
Audio can be tested using the Phoenix audio routings option. Three different audio loop paths can be
activated:
• External microphone to Internal earpiece
• External microphone to Internal handsfree speaker
• Internal microphone to External earpiece
Each audio loop sets routing from the specified input to the specified output enabling a quick in-out test.
Loop path gains are fixed and they cannot be changed using Phoenix. Correct pins and signals for each test
are presented in the following table.
Phoenix audio loop tests and test results
The results presented in the table apply when no accessory is connected and battery voltage is set to 3.7V.
Earpiece, internal microphone and speaker are in place during measurement. Applying a headset accessory
during measurement causes a significant drop in measured quantities.

RF Troubleshooting and Manual Tuning Guide
Introduction to RF troubleshooting
On the following pages you will find a step-by-step troubleshooting procedure and reference measurements
at the relevant signal points. For functional descriptions, please refer to the System module section.
Notes on reference measurements
All measurements must be done using:
• spectrum analyser with a high-frequency high-impedance passive probe (LO-/reference frequencies and
RF power levels)
• oscilloscope with a 10:1 probe (DC-voltages and low frequency signals)
Important: All measurements with an RF coupler must be performed in an RF shielded environment,
or where there are no transmissions on the same frequencies. This may disturb sensitive receiver
measurements.
Repairing this phone - important
The RF section of the phone is built around one RF ASIC. Before changing the RF ASIC, please make sure that
supply voltages and serial communication coming from baseband to RF are OK.
Please note that the grounding of the FEM module is directly below the FEM module. Therefore, it is difficult
to check or change the module.
Most RF semiconductors are static discharge sensitive! ESD protection must be taken care of during repair
(ground straps and ESD soldering irons). The RF ASIC and FEM are moisture sensitive, so parts must be prebaked prior to soldering.
In addition to key components, there are lot of discrete components (resistors, inductors and capacitors)
which troubleshooting is done mainly by checking if the soldering of the component is done properly.
Capacitor can be checked for shorts and resistors for value by means of an ohmmeter, but be aware in-circuit
measurements should be evaluated carefully.
Keep in mind that all measured voltages or RF levels depicted in the service manual are rough figures.
Especially RF levels vary because of different measuring equipment or different grounding of the probe used.
When using an RF probe, use a pair of metallic tweezers to connect the probe ground to the PWB ground as
close to the measurement point as possible. If measurements are performed in a product specific module
jig, then “GND” pads should be used for the probe ground.
Supported bands
The following part of the service manual contains a description of all four GSM bands. It covers both variants,
RM-322 and RM-323. Both variants support three GSM bands as follows:
• RM-322: GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900
• RM-323: GSM850, GSM1800, GSM1900
Make sure to investigate only the bands, which the phone is made for.

Receiver troubleshooting
Introduction to RX troubleshooting
Rx can be tested by making a phone call or in the local mode. For the local mode testing, use Phoenix service
software.
The main Rx troubleshooting measurement is RSSI measurement. This test measures the signal strength of
the received signal. I and Q branches can be measured separately.
RSSI signal measurement is the main Rx troubleshooting measurement. The test measures the strength of
the received signal.
I and Q branches can be measured separately. In GSM, the input signal can be either a real GSM signal or a
CW (Continuous Wave) signal that is 67.771 kHz above the carrier frequency.
Steps

RSSI reading values of the selected band and channel are displayed. The RSSI level must be the same value
as that which is set at the signal generator (-80 dBm).
Transmitter troubleshooting
General instructions for TX troubleshooting
Context
• Tx troubleshooting requires Tx operation.
• Do not transmit on frequencies that are in use!
• Transmitter can be controlled in the local mode for diagnostic purposes.
• The most useful Phoenix tool for GSM transmitter testing is "RF Controls".
• Tx IQ tuning and Tx power tuning can be also used in some cases.
• Remember that retuning is not a fix! Phones are tuned correctly in production.
The first set of steps instructs how to assemble the test setup. This setup is general for all Tx troubleshooting
tasks.
Alternative steps provide specific troubleshooting instructions for
Caution: Never activate the GSM transmitter without a proper antenna load. There should be always
50 Ω load connected to the RF connector (antenna, RF-measurement equipment or at least 2 W
dummy load), otherwise the GSM Power amplifier may be damaged.

service software.
Steps
1. Connect a test jig to a computer with a DAU-9S cable or to a FPS-10 flash prommer with a modular cable
(XCS-4).
Make sure that you have a PKD-1 dongle connected to the computer's parallel port.
2. Connect CU-4 with 12 V supply. The DC supply voltage is set to 3.7 V by default (in Phoenix).
3. Connect an RF cable between the RF connector of the module test jig (MJ-156) and measurement
equipment or alternatively use a 50 Ω (at least 2 W) dummy load in the module test jig RF connector,
otherwise GSM may be damaged.
Note: There are two antenna connectors in the module jig:
• one for GSM
• one for Bluetooth
Make sure that all connections are made to the correct RF connector.
Normally a spectrum analyser is used as measurement equipment.
Note: The maximum input power of a spectrum analyser is +30 dBm.
To prevent any damage, it is recommended to use 10 dB attenuator on the spectrum analyzer input.

RF Troubleshooting and Manual Tuning Guide
Checking antenna functionality
GSM antenna
In the GSM antenna, there is one feed and two GND contacts.
Between GND1 and Feed, a DC short-circuit can be measured.
GND2 has no DC connection to the other contacts.
The antenna is functioning normally, if the contact pads hit the antenna C-clips on the PWB and the antenna
is visually intact.
BT/WLAN antenna
The BT/WLAN antenna is (as the GSM antenna) placed on the flex foil on the antenna module. It has one feed
and one short contact. The antenna is functioning normally, if the contact pads hit the antenna C-clips on
the PWB and the antenna is visually intact.
