Tips & Tricks
for Symbians!
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
book contacts, 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
