Hi guys,
thank you for accepting. I hope that I have chosen correct discussion. So what happened? After eight years of troublefree using I could not start my Nokia after battery being discharged. Only message "Startup failed. Please contact retailer" and obviously, nothing further happened so I have no chance to get my data from internal memory.
It seems to be SW failure rather than HW. Friend of mine succeeded with contacts and text messages and also complete flash memory extraction into .bin file. Moreover, I would like to recover also notes stored in the phone. Do you see any chance to recover it? Hard reset has not been performed yet. So far I have tried to mount bin file to Autopsy soft, but with an error of bad format.
Any further step or ideas are appreciated.
The key is the battery. You say disabled, may put it in the refrigerator for freeze, this sounds cracy but some batteries revive. Otherwise buy a replacement battery as these models are outdated you should find a cheap replacement. Without battery the transfer from device to Nokia PC Suite fails as you have to decide on the device what to run by the sync connection to the Suite.
I have got another although the former is still OK just run out of power . As I mentioned, transfer to PC is not possible as computer does not discover the device since it is in (I guess) non-standard status. Just with an error message mentioned below. I do not want to hard reset it in order to keep the data and try to get notes from it. I also guess that this reset could lower the chance of acquiring data. Or am I wrong?
No ideas, guys? Any software or any accessories that could help digging?
