What Does The Blinking Mail Mean On The Nokia Nuron

The Nokia Nuron's status bar displays several icons to alert you to different actions on your phone. The blinking envelope icon appears in the upper right corner of the screen. Though the icon is similar to the text messaging icon, it relates to the SIM card installed in your phone.


Cause


A stationary envelope icon on the status bar of the Nokia Nuron indicates an unread message in the Messaging section of the phone, which handles SMS and MMS messages. Opening unread messages makes the envelope disappear. Though the blinking envelope uses the same image as the SMS and MMS messages icon, it is not associated with standard SMS and MMS messages. A blinking envelope indicates the SIM message memory is full. SIM messages are similar to text messages, except they are stored in your phone's


Solution


You can access your SIM card messages by opening "Messaging" on your phone and selecting "SIM Messages." A list of your messages appears on the screen. Though SIM messages are similar to text messages, you can't view them from the "SIM Messages" menu. To view the messages, select all of the messages you want to read, select "Copy" and then place them in one of the folders. Once the SIM messages are copied, select them all using the "Mark All" option and select "Delete." The blinking envelope icon on the status bar should disappear once the messages are deleted from the SIM card. If the envelope doesn't immediately disappear, restart the phone.


Prevention


SIM cards don't have much memory, and you might see the blinking envelope again if you continue to receive SIM messages. Nokia did not design a setting to prevent messages from automatically saving to your SIM card. To keep the SIM card memory from filling, you will have to monitor your SIM card messages regularly. In addition, the Nokia Nuron does not have a native text message-blocking program to block incoming messages from numbers that are routed to your SIM card. If the saved messages on your SIM card becomes a problem, contact the person sending the messages and try to work out a different mode of communication.


Considerations


The Nokia Nuron supports saving contact information directly to the SIM card instead of the phone's memory. Though contact information only takes up a small amount of memory, it does limit the amount of memory available for SIM card messages. To limit how often you need to delete SIM messages, save your contacts to the phone's internal memory.
