Mobile phones from e-bay
Options
I bought my phone Nokia 6680 about six months ago on e-bay and its been great, I recently got an upgrade on my 3 contract to the Nokia N70. I was thinking of selling my 6680 as there is no point in keeping both now, the only problem is I picked up a virus via bluetooth, I have managed to clear the virus but it has left side effects like you can't access the web it gives the error: "Web: No default relay"
My question is, because I bought it from ebay I know I can't take it back to a shop, has anyone got any suggestions for where I can get it checked out as I can't sell it whilst it isn't working. I don't mind paying but not too much otherwise its not worth it.
Thanks

If you find out who has the Nokia contract in your area (its carPhone Warehouse near me)
Take it to there and tell them your network provider told you to take it to them,explain whats wrong with it and they should fix it for you.Don't tell them you bought it off ebay just say it was from which ever network you use.......©..®..(TM) NothingVentured.

You should be able to get rid of the virus yourself by doing a hard reset which will delete all user data from the phone.
Turn the handset on and immediately press and hold down the green button, the pencil button and 3 key (the number 3, not the provider 3).Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
also it doesnt matter if you got it from ebay or not - the warrenty is with nokia and they will know the date of man from the bar code in the back so will know how much warrenty remains

Thanks for this your a star, it reset it back to how it was when I first bought it. I just need to find myself a decent new face I bought one new about two weeks ago and its already looking a bit battered I might try and get one straight from a dealer as its difficult to change the face involves a lot screws0
