Tips and Tricks for Nokia cell fones

                            Tips and Tricks for Nokia cell fones:

------------------------------------

*Tip 1 : Do u know how to use the edit button (abc or pencil button)?
Heres how... in the inbox for example; u wanna delete multiple sms, simply hold the edit button, scroll down,and then, press c to delete the marked sms. The edit button can also b used to copy and past text in sms, simply hold it and scroll across, choose copy. pretty good for placing song names in ngages

*Tip 2 : Shit happens, on a smartphone, its inevitable u do something wrong, and tis calls for a form at of fone. to format the fone, press *#7370#, then enter the lock code, which is the sec code of the fone. NOTE: batt must b full, else if format is disrupted by low batt, consequences will be disatrous I heard the code *#7780# works too, pretty much the same i tink.for 6600 users, to format the fone, theres an alternative way. Press and hold <3>, <*>, and
the buttons, then power on fone, keep holding on the 3 buttons, till u come to a format screen.
tis method ONLY works on 6600, and need not enter the sec code. BUT sec code wun be reset to
default 12345.
*Tip 3 : TO NGAGE USERS; Did u know u can install .sis files simply using the cable given?
Juzt plug it in, place the .sis file anywhere on e: (the mmc), not in any folders, root of e:,
disconnect, then look for it in manager.

*Tip 4: Save on battery and system memory being used by regulary checking the task manager which can
be accessed by holding down the menu button!!

*Tip 4a: Set the screen saver to a short time out period to prolong battery life

*Tip 4b: Avoid restarting the phone, or repeatedly turning it on and off. This helps increase.

battery life.

*Tip 7: If you would like to avoid being "blue jacked", keep bluetooth turned off,
or set your phone's visibility to hidden.

*Tip 8: Don't want to carry a watch and a phone? Set the screen saver to show date and time,
then you can ditch the watch.

*Tip 9: Save memory when installing apps, by installing over bluetooth. This can be done using
the nokia phone suite and a bluetooth serial connection. Only works with .SIS files, so java
still has to be sent to the phone, but will save space when using .SIS files.

*Tip 10: Operator logos
Use a filemanager like FExplorer or SeleQ to add the folders: "c:/system/Apps/phone/oplogo".
Add a .bmp picture to folder "oplogo" and restart your phone!
The .bmp picture size needs to be: 97 x 25 pixels

*Tip 11: Check if the recepients phone is on Delivery reports or Type *0# your message in the
message composer window space then write your message, the recipient will not see the star zero
hash bit - just the message When they read it it will relay a message back to your fone showing
the time they recieved it. (haven't yet tried it myself though)

*Tip 12: BlueJacking
First up, you need to know what Bluetooth is. There are lots of types of modern devices that
incorporate Bluetooth as one of their many features. PDAs, mobile phones and laptops are a few
of these modern devices.Bluetooth means that Bluetooth enabled devices can send things like
phonebook/address bookcontacts, pictures & notes to other Bluetooth enabled devices wirelessly
over a range of about 10 metres.So, we've got past the boring part. Now, using a phone with
Bluetooth, you can create a phonebook contact and write a message, eg. 'Hello, you've been
bluejacked', in the 'Name' field.Then you can search for other phones with Bluetooth and
send that phonebook contact to them.On their phone,a message will popup saying

"Hello, you've been bluejacked' has just been received by Bluetooth"
or something along those lines. For most 'victims' they will have no idea as to how the message
appeared on their phone.

*Tip 13: While you are viewing a picture in your phone's gallery, press one of these shortcut keys
(definitely works on 6600, not sure about other symbians)

1 - turn image anticlockwise
3 - turn image clockwise
* - toggle on/off of full screen
5 - zoom in
0 - zoom out
*Tip 14: U can select all files in a folder by selecting THE folder and copy it then paste it somewhere.
however u need to make a new directory. fexplorer wun let u copy that folder together.
well seleQ can mark files to copy but it really takes time!

*Tip 15: A soft and Hard reset
A Soft-reset - the process of resetting all the settings of the phone to the factory default!
No applications are deleted! A Hard-reset is like formatting a drive! It does format the memory.
Everything that has been installed after the first use of the phone is deleted! It will recover
the memory of the phone to the state you purchased it!
It is done by inputing the following code: *#7370# NOTE: The battery must be full or the charger
has to be connected to the phone so that it does not run out of power and make the phone unusable.
*Tip 16: Formats of images
Supported ones: JPG,UPF,GIF87a/89a,WBMB,MBM,TIFF/FPNG,EXIF.
How to copy & paste text in your Nokia 3650:
Press and hold the pencil key and select your text using the scroll key.
Left function key will change to 'Copy'. Press it to copy the selected text to clipboard.
You can paste the clipboard contents the same way:
press and hold the pencil key and press 'Paste'. Or, press pencil key once and select 'Paste'.
