There are two separate kinds of volume on your Nokia mobile phone: the earpiece volume, which you hear when you are having a conversation or listening to music, and the ringing volume, which you hear when you have an incoming call. Most Nokia phones have volume keys on the side that will change the volume of the ringer, or the earpiece, depending on the phone's current mode. However, there are some models, like the C3, that have no volume controls. Increasing the volume on these models of Nokia phones is a little more complicated.
