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.

Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR)

Enhanced Full Rate will give you much better sound quality when you enable it. The new Enhanced Full Rate CODEC adopted by GSM uses the ASELP (AlgebraicCode Excitation Linear Prediction) compression technology. This technology allows for much great voice quality in the same number of bits as the older Full Rate CODEC. The older technology was called LPC-RPE (Linear Prediction Coding with Regular Pulse Excitation). Both operate at 13 kilobits.(but you take up more space on the network, so they can charge you more)

Tablet phones are phones that serve purpose of both tablets and phones. They are sometimes also called as Phablet.
Before selecting a tablet phone it is important to go through reviews of that company and the product. But, since there are too many new phablets coming to market, it becomes hard to decide purely on the basis of reviews. Therefore, it is necessary to understand two parameters before buying a tablet phone.

The Benefits of Unlocking Samsung Phone

1. Ability to switch network providers

If you are tethered to one network provider right now, while another is offering you cheaper rates to switch over, you may want to unlock Samsung so that you don’t need to buy a new phone from the new network provider. This means that if you’re consistently traveling around the US and you never know what in area of network coverage you’ll end up next, you have the ability to switch over to whatever network provides the best coverage for such area. Also, by unlocking Samsung device, you are now able to seek out and obtain the best network deals without ever having to switch phones and sometimes even phone numbers multiple times.

1. Ability to travel without incurring roaming charges

If you are one who travels overseas quite often, then unlocking your phone can only benefit you. If you keep your Samsung Phone locked, that you are likely to incur whatever roaming charges your current cell phone network provider charges for overseas traveling. Now, with your unlocked Samsung Phone, you have the ease and ability to switch networks when your overseas, saving you bunches of money on roaming charges, and allowing you to get the best service and best deal in whatever country your traveling to.

1. Ability to keep your work phone and personal phone all in one

If you currently have a separate phone for work and for personal use, having an unlocked phone will give you the ability to keep your work and personal phone all on one device. With a special adapter for your Samsung phone, or with a dual SIM card slot, you can easily keep all of your business on one phone, even managing to keep your separate phone numbers. This means less stuff to weigh down your pockets or your purse!

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

    

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is an impressive device, but today we’re interested in exposing faults and finding fixes you can use.

Who knew that a hybrid device combining elements of a smartphone and a tablet would prove to be popular with consumers? The original Galaxy Note took the market by surprise and Samsung’s follow up device, the Galaxy Note 2 has raised the stakes by improving on its predecessor in every way. Early signs suggest it will be a hit, but there are always flaws lurking in new mobile tech.
Here we examine the most notable Galaxy Note 2 problems that owners are complaining about and we try to find solutions or handy workarounds.

Cracked or broken screen

Problem: There are quite a few user reports of the screen being scratched or cracked after accidental drops. The Galaxy Note 2 has a truly mammoth 5.5-inch display, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2, which is generally tough stuff. The device has performed well in most of the drop tests we’ve seen, but they aren’t hugely scientific. The size could make the display more prone to cracking on impact, or it could be the fact that the Note 2 is a little more difficult to handle than a smaller device.
If you’re worried, then it’s probably a good idea to have phone insurance or invest Solution: If your screen does get cracked or broken, you should be careful about where you order a replacement. The safest option is to go through Samsung and send your Note 2 away for repair, but it is likely to be expensive. Alternatively you could go to a local repair shop, or order replacement glass and try to do it yourself. If you are going to order replacement parts then make sure the source is reputable.

Won’t connect, very slow, or disconnecting from Wi-Fi

Problem: Some users have reported issues trying to connect to Wi-Fi, extremely slow speeds when they do connect, and random disconnecting. Sometimes it appears as though the Wi-Fi is on, but there is no Internet access on the Note 2. This can be down to individual routers and settings, or it can be caused by settings on your Note 2. There are probably various issues here, but the same troubleshooting steps apply.
Solutions: A simple restart of the Wi-Fi works for some people. You can turn Wi-Fi on your Note 2 off and on again. You can also try rebooting the device and your router.
You might want to take a look in Settings > Wi-Fi hit the Menu button again and choose Advanced and then make sure Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep is set to Always. You can also see if the Wi-Fi Timer is on and check your IP address in here.
If you’re on AT&T then check the Smart Wi-Fi app because it can override your device’s settings.
Some people have reported success after a Factory reset, but it does mean reinstalling apps and setting up your device the way you want again.

Can’t turn Wi-Fi off

Problem: Have you been turning Wi-Fi off only for it to turn itself back on again? This is a common issue for Sprint customers and it’s because of the Connections Optimizer.
Solution: You can find the Connections Optimizer by hitting Menu > Settings > More Settings > Mobile Networks and then disable it. You might find that the Connections Optimizer continues to turn itself back on again after you reboot the device.
Workaround: You can tell your Note 2 to forget Wi-Fi networks. If you go to Settings > Wi-Fi you can see available networks and forget them, but you won’t be able to use Wi-Fi until you add one again so it’s far from an ideal fix.

Phone won’t charge

Problem: You’re plugging your Note 2 in via the AC adapter or a USB PC port and you find that it isn’t charging.
Solution: Make sure the Micro USB port on your device is clean. You could try some compressed air to make sure there’s no dust in there blocking the connection. You could also reboot the device and try again. Some users are reporting that it works perfectly after a reboot, although that’s obviously not a good long term solution. If it’s not blocked and the problem keeps reoccurring after a reboot then contact Samsung.

Device takes too long to charge

Problem: Instead of charging in two or three hours as it should, some people have found that the Note 2 is taking much longer to charge.
Solution: Make sure you are using the correct 2A rated charger. The Samsung one that ships with the device is the most efficient in terms of speed. Try another 2A charger just in case the supplied charger is the culprit. If there’s no improvement you may have a faulty battery and it’s probably best to contact Samsung.

Sound while charging

Problem: A lot of people have complained about a buzzing or hissing sound while the Note 2 is charging. Apparently this is due to the charger and it’s normal. It is possibly more noticeable with the Note 2 because it is sucking down a lot of juice.
Solution: You could charge it via a USB PC port, but unless your PC is super quiet that won’t help and it will take much longer to charge. You could also try a different charger. A lower-rated charger will charge the device more slowly, but it should also make less noise.
Workaround: Charge it in a different room so the noise doesn’t bother you. It’s not ideal, but if typically charge at night and it’s keeping you awake then it might be the best idea.

Other Note 2 issues

That’s it for now, but if you’re experiencing any other problems with your Note 2 or you want to offer up some tips or solutions then please post a comment.

 

Nokia Lumia 900

The Nokia Lumia 900 is a Windows Phone 7.5-powered smartphone. The phone has 4G LTE support and was released in April, 2012. The Nokia Lumia 900 has a 4.3″ display and a ClearBlack AMOLED 800×480 capacitive touchscreen. It also features a one piece polycarbonate body and is available in black, cyan and white.

 

Key features 

Features differentiating Lumia 900 from Lumia 800 are the bigger 4.3" display, a substantially bigger capacity battery, fourth generation network (4G LTE) support, a front-facing second camera, enabling picture from a video call, the lack of included headset and the lack of included rubber bumper case.

Software 

The Lumia 900 device comes with four Nokia-exclusive applications not included by the default Windows Phone OS: Nokia Drive, a free turn-by-turn navigation system; Nokia Maps; Nokia Music, a free streaming music service and music store; and App Highlights, a service suggesting software based on location and operator. As of April 2012 it contains the following additional applications: Nokia Transport, a location-aware public transport schedule and navigation application; Creative Studio, a photo editing application; TuneIn Radio, a local and global radio streaming application; CNN, a news reader and video viewer for Cable News Network content; WRC Live, an application to follow live timing and media from the FIA WRC series.

Diagnostic Tool 

Just like the Lumia 800, the 900 has the diagnostic tool.
It can be obtained by pressing ##634# on the dial keypad, which should initiate the download after the last # is pressed. The diagnostic tool should appear on the app list under Diagnostics.
On this diagnostic tool a user can run tests on the following: Accelerometer, ALS, audio loopback, camera, battery status, DTMF, gyroscope, hardware buttons, headset detection, LCD white, lights, life timer, magnetometer, power source, proximity, speaker, touch and vibration. It's also possible to perform all the tests in one run.
Note: This app does not harm the phone, it's just a hidden app Nokia forgot to mention in the owner's guide. The app can be uninstalled if a user chooses to do so.

The Nokia N73, not your ordainary phone

The Nokia 73 has been out for a couple of years now, but is not sold on the American markets.  I purchased this phone online because I had a Nokia 7610 for almost 4 years.  I had grown accustomed to the features of the 7610 and therefore the Iphone was not for me.  I love that I can connected both Nokia's to my laptop and download pictures, music or videos.  I also create my own ringtones, which saves loads of money and allows me to have distinctive ringtones.  With the Iphone you have to purchase additional ringtones which was not for me.  Also it doesn't receive multimedia text messages so this was also I soar not for me.  I do miss the chargeable face plates I was able to use with the 7610 and cannot with the N73.I really like to change because people think you have a new phone and you can match your outfits.  But the N73 does come with a 2 GB removable memory card which can hold a ton.  I currently have over an hour of music and 600 pictures on my phone with loads of move for more pictures.  Go Nokia.

Nokia N73

Nokia N73

Nokia N73

Based much on the Nokia N70, one of the original Nokia Nseries devices, the N73 takes the bar shaped multimedia handset design a few steps further by adding in such features as a QVGA display and a 3.2 megapixel auto-focus camera with a Carl Zeiss lens. While it lacks the WiFi support found on many of the newer Nseries handsets, the N73 does support 3G on the 2100MHz WCDMA/UMTS band and has all of the other class leading flourishes that the Nseries is known for - like the fabulous Nokia web browser.

Physical Aspects

Physically the N73 looks like a slightly slimmed down N70 that has been given a facelift on the back. The N70's large sliding lens cover has been replaced with a leaner, more compact unit on the N73 that helps keep the overall dimensions and weight down. The N73 measures up at 112mm x 49mm x 20mm (4.4" x 1.9" x .8") and weighs a very respectable 117g (4.1oz) with SIM card.

The front of the N73 is dominated by the large display, but we'll touch on that later. The keypad on the N73 is rather small, and one of the things I like least about the device. The combination of small keys and a position very, very close to the bottom of the phone make them rather hard for me to use. If you have small hands it might work out better for you, but then again, the N73 might also feel a bit top heavy for people with smaller hands. The keys themselves work very well, and the joystick and surrounding softkeys and call control keys are also very good. I don't really like the four chromed buttons that surround the keypad, though. Of the four, only the C key and the main S60 menu keys are really used very often. The C key's lower right hand corner placement makes it very hard for me to use, as a right handed person.

The remainder of the device is pretty well designed. The volume control has been moved to the right side of the device so that it is in the appropriate position for a zoom control when the N73 is being used in camera mode. Accordingly, there is a dedicated shutter button on the same side of the device. Next to the shutter button is a dedicate button for the photo viewer application, which is pretty handy. The active sliding panel that covers and turns on the camera and flash on the rear of the device is a bit odd, and we were a bit worried that it might get caught on things since it does not sit flush with the rest of the rear cover. We did not, however, have any actual problems with it. The last thing of note is the miniSD memory card slot that is located on the bottom of the device, next to the pop-port connector and the mini power socket. The card slot cover is very secure and unobtrusive. I didn't even realize that it was anything but a design element when I first received the device.

Overall I am generally pleased with the physical design of the N73. While I would prefer a better positioned and laid out keypad, I can understand the space restraints that Nokia had to work within considering the N73's massive display. The build quality seems very good, as you would expect, and the N73's finish is near perfect as well

step 5) Then in this folder u will see different folders (eg 0010001_s) and certain files (eg 00100000). These files are the actual messages. Browse through every folder and open all files till u get the sms u are looking for.
Step 6) For opening the files don’t choose options>file>open as it will show format not supported rather choose options>file>hex/text viewer.By selecting the “Hex/ text viewer” u ll be able to open and read the deleted SMS message

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 format 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 b 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 Call (Send) buttons, then power on fone, keep holding on the 3 buttons, till u come to a format screen. this method ONLY works on 6600, and need not enter the sec code. BUT sec code would be reset to default 12345.


Tip 3 : TO NGAGE USERS; Did u know u can install .sis files simply using the cable given? Juz 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 5: Type *#06# to display your IMEI serial number, very valuable for the unlocking your phone to other sim cards


Tip 6: Type *#0000# to view which firmware version you are running
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 logosUse 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 onDelivery 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 anticlockwise3 - turn image clockwise* - toggle on/off of full screen5 - zoom in0 - zoom out


Tip 14 : You 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 resetA 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.

Why assigning Video Recorder in the right or left soft key does not work?

(Sound Recorder is launched instead of Video Recorder)It's a bug with firmware version 2.50.
How to check your firmware version:

A "Firmware" is the phone's operating system stored in internal Flash memory of the device (disk Z.Manufacturers release new firmware versions containing bug fixes, improvements and - sometimes - offering new functions.Firmware upgrade can only be made in authorized Nokia service centre (point).To check your current firmware version simply type *#0000# on main Phone screen.

To make sure that no memory-resident programs start when you reboot your phone,hold down the pencil key when you turn on the phone and hold it on untill you have to enter your PIN code.(When you have trouble booting up the phone with the MMC in it because it got corrupted for some reason, this trick willalmost always let you boot up the phone so you can remove the latest installed app which might have caused theproblem or if your phone is "unrepairable" you can still back up your important data before you do a format.)
Q: How to totally format your Nokia 3650 and remove all installed applications, user files and restore allsettings to default like it's new out of the box? (OEM apps won't be deleted like Camera and RealOne Player).

Phone will restart." Press 'Yes' and enter your Lock code (default is 12345).Tip: Formatting takes several minutes so you'd better connect your Nokia 3650to a charger to ensure that your battery doesn't get empty in the middle of formatting.Note: All your created acces points and mailboxes will be lost so take a note of them. And all application settings will be reset.E.g. In Camera, image quality is set back to normal and memory in use is set back to phone memory. And also in Messages,memory in use is set back to phone memory, etc. Also backup your contacts with PC Suite or a program like Contacts Manager.

How to free more RAM on your phone


>>> Method 1: Flight mode:
Put your phone in "Flight mode" with Psiloc System Tools. Install System Tools, open it and select "Flight mode". This way you can restart the phone without your SIM card so there will be no running phone tasks in the background. Now you can have up to 3,5 MB of free RAM!
Note: ironically enough, Flight mode doesn't work when Smart Launcher is installed, at least in my case. But i've also heard several reports of people who have both apps running without any problems.


>>> Method 2: Smart Launcher trick:
Install Smart Launcher and open it. Go to Options, Settings and put Launcher ON.Now plug in your charger and switch off your phone. Wait untill the battery meter appears and short press the Menu button (don't hold).The menu should appear and now you can have 3,5 to 4,5 MB free RAM! (Hold Menu button to check RAM).
The trick is that with the charger plugged in, the phone must get a minimum software support for charging, even whenthe phone is switched off. And somehow Smart Launcher has still got it's shortcut running and that's the Menu button. So whenyou press the Menu button, you go directly to the Menu without any other phone tasks running in the background soyou trick the phone and you have more free RAM!Note: when you unplug the charger, the phone will switch off.


>>> Method 3: Menu :
This method I found it by myself, it frees a little about 100~200 KB but I guess it's useful sometime
Close your menu not by selecting the right selection key "exit", or pressing the menu key another time, they only hide the menu app but do not close it, to close it select the left selection key "option" and scroll down and select "exit"
So when you open an app needs more ram reopen menu and close it, it's useful when play low bit rate video in realplayer paradis.

Hi, I am using this phone for 3 years now. Purchaced at Rs 9000/- then. I never find HANGING problem mentioned by many.
Reception is good. Sound calrity is superb. Its little on heavier side which i like, as it reminds me if i happen to walk out of house without mobile in my pocket.
camera:- Both image and videos are very stunning when outdoors. Inside home though need proper light settings. (2 MP camera gives more than expected clarity - compared to other mobiles). Video sound is very crisp (clear). Have good flash, can take good snaps within 2-4 feet distance, using flash, in complete dark. So this is perfect for peoples wanting a mobile with clear sound and stunning camera output.
Cons:- The irriating thing in this phone is, it do not have key backlit. So its difficult to receive phonecalls at nights, forget if you want type SMS at nights. The keys are flat at same plane(not distinctive boudaries with curves), so difficult to guess and press keys (like in other nokia phones) ... so this phone may not make for SMS loving collage going students.
Got problem in display (went blank/flicker) when my daughter banged it on floor. luckily it was in warranty that time, got it replaced free. No problem. working fine!
The spring in rear camera slid broken, so need to open back cover for camera use. Tried to change cover from general mobile shops, but they never fitted well. They advised to go to NOKIA shop and buy original in 1000+. I tried that too .. its no more available.
Yet, i am going to use this mobile untill reception/camera goes bad.


I HAD VISITED A SERVICE CENTER OF NOKIA AT CHEMBUR(FONE ARENA). HAD LEFT MY N72 WITH THEM FOR REPAIRS. THEY SAID IT COULDNT BE REPAIRED THE PROBLEM WAS THERE WAS WATER IN  THE  PHONE. I CANT UNDERSTAND WHAT SERVICE DO THEY PROVIDE. AND AFTER I GOT MY PHONE BACK I CAME TO KNOW THAT THEY HAD REMOVED THE ORIGINAL DISPLAY. ITS SUCH DISGUSTING THAT U CANT BELIEVE THE BRANDS ALSO NOW. NOW WHEN I WENT BACK TO THEM THEY ARE NOT READY TO ACCEPT THEIR MISTAKE. HOW CAN SOMEONE DO SUCH CHEAP THINGS THAT TOO A COMPANY LIKE NOKIA. I WOULD REQUEST THEM TO STOP DUPING THE CUSTOMERS WHO BELIEVE IN THEM. FROM YEARS I M USING THE NOKIA BRAND AND THIS IS WHAT HAS COME BACK IN RETURM FOR BEING A LOYAL CUSTOMER. i WOULD APPRECIATE A REPLY OF THESE PEOPLE ON THIS ISSUE. I HOPE THEY DO GET TIME TO REPLY THEIR CUSTOMERS
