Opening the USB cover on a Nokia 6300
I get so many search engine hits on my Nokia 6300 post where the search string is “How do I open the USB cover on Nokia 6300” that I thought I’d knock up a quick post on this.
To be perfectly honest, I’m quite curious as to why people are asking this in the first place. It’s not that difficult and if you’re not sure, I’m sure it’s in the manual. Anyway, if you’re still struggling read on…
The USB socket is located on the bottom of the phone. To open the cover there is a slot to the left of the cover.
Insert your fingernail… (if you’ve got no nails or you’re a girly with nails you don’t want to break, a small flat bladed screwdriver is just as good)
and flick it towards you. The cover hinges down.
The cover is now open.
mine has always refused to open, and still does, but then i realised that there is a lot more room for it to move when the battery cover is removed, and it provides a nice corner to catch the cover with.
Phew… I just got a new 6300 and I was really pissed off because that cover. I’ve worked around it about 15 minutes when I finally gave up trying to open that tiny piece of plastic.
So, Google and sparkling people like you are the solutions many times 🙂
Thanks, dude.
NO. THIS DOES NOT WORK. BROKE MINE OFF.
‘You wish’: Then I suggest you take it back as faulty.
