CCS Technical Documentation Baseband troubleshooting Baseband test points This document contains the Nokia 1100 troubleshooting diagrams. Test points are described and listed in the A3 schematic diagrams. Troubleshooting diagrams In this section, Troubleshooting diagrams is provided for the most common problems of the Nokia 1100 NOTE : Since both D200 (UEM) and D400(UPP) are underfilled, they can not be replaced.
RH-18/36/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation Phone is dead This means that the phone do not draw any current at all when supply is connected and/ or powerkey is pressed. It is assumed that the voltage supplied is 3.6 VDC. The UEM will prevent any functional- ity what so ever at battery/supply levels below 2.9 VDC.
Company confidential RH-18/36/38 CCS Technical Documentation Flash programming do not work The flash programming can only be done via the pads on the PWB (J396). In case of Flash failure in FLALI station, problem is most likely related to SMD problems.
RH-18/36/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation Power does not stay on or phone is jammed If this kind of failure is presenting itself immediately after FLALI, it is most likely caused by ASICs missing contact with PWB. If for some reason the MCU does not service the watchdog register within the UEM, the operations watchdog will run out after approximately 32 seconds.
Company confidential RH-18/36/38 CCS Technical Documentation Display information : "Contact Service" This error can only happen at power up where several self-tests is run. If any of these test cases fails the display will show the message: "Contact Service". It's individual test cases so the below lineup of error hunting's has no chronological order.
RH-18/36/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation The phone do not register to the network, or the phone cannot make a call If the phone doesn't register to the network, the fault can be in either BB or RF. Only few signals can be tested since several signals is 'burried' in one or more of the inner layers of the PWB.
Company confidential RH-18/36/38 CCS Technical Documentation SIM related faults Insert SIM card fault The hardware of the SIM interface from UEM (D200) to the SIM connector (X387) can be tested without a SIM card. When the power is switched on the phone first check for a 1,8V SIM card and then a 3V SIM card.
RH-18/36/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation SIM-Card rejected The error ”SIM card rejected” means that the ATR message received from SIM card is cor- rupted, e.g. data signal levels are wrong. The first data is always ATR and it is sent from card to phone.

RH-18/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation Synthesizer There is only one PLL synthesizer generating Local Oscillator frequencies for both RX and TX in both bands ( PCN and EGSM). The VCO frequency is divided by 2 for PCN operation or by 4 for EGSM operation inside the Mjoelner IC.
RH-18/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation Phone fails after power on If the phone stops working a short time after the power is turned ON, a possible reason for this could be that the 26MHz system clock signal is not getting to the UPP clock- input in BaseBand.

Company confidential RH-18/38 CCS Technical Documentation RF control This menu can be placed in maintenance or in tuning depending on the Phoenix. It is meant to check the receiver or transmitter without going in call. It works very much like a call, but you have control via the PC, and not via the tester.
RH-18/38 Company confidential CCS Technical Documentation Call testing If all tunings are done, and the phone TX and RX is working a call is the ultimate test of the phone. Set CMD55, or similar tester, to manual test and switch the phone to normal if it was in local.
