What did you do exactly? If you have a Nokia 6120 (not 6210!) you
have to use gnokiid. Here's a simple checklist what you have to do:

* Configure gnokii to operate correctly (e.g. you can test it with
  gnokii --identify or gnokii --monitor).

* Run gnokiid.

* Test it with minicom: configure minicom to use /dev/gnokii as a modem
  device. If you call your phone. When you get RING type ATA<enter>
  After a while you have to see CONNECT

* You can use /dev/gnokii as an ordinary modem device

If it still doesn't work, download the latest version (e.g. 0.6.x) and
enable debugging (add the following lines to your gnokiirc):

[logging]
debug = on
rlpdebug = on

Bye,
