Comparing E52 and E55

The only difference with E55 is in its individual keyboard appearance. The Nokia E55 has 20 buttons, while the E52 features a standard, 12 button2 numeric keypad. Its keys are big enough, light to press and somewhat handy to use. Honestly, it is among the finest keypads we have used, ever. Many things about both gadgets is virtually similar and you may even swap the battery cover. Actually, the Nokia E52 uses 1 GB micro-SD card instead of 2 GB, but this isn't of utmost importance. While, the 2.4-inch screen is still useful at direct sunlight and about the same with E55, eventhough you can see it is a bit darker indoors. Even so, it is outstandingly acceptable.
The functionality of a Nokia E52 isn't different than your E55´s. It works nicely on 3G networks, with an integrated GPS and Wi-Fi, 3.2 Mp camera and flash and it runs Symbian S60 3rd Edition (Feature Pack 2). It delivers comparably capable organizer, effective messaging, Word and Excel 2007 compatibility and superior browser. Fortunately with the Nokia Messaging, sticking with email correspondence is reliable and simple and if you go outdoor frequently, you can take full benefit on the functionalities of the World Traveler application.

Personal Review and Opinion on N85

From Its model number, you would think a N85 is the lesser variant of the famed N95, however it is essentially an enhancement. Is this an instance that Nokia no longer has nice ideas, or is it just perfecting a really well known cellphone? I did a better look at this N85 to know if Nokia has cracked it once again. Right after spending a few quality time with my Nokia N85, I am not certain the reason why Nokia did not just set it up as a N95's successor rather than the N96. My N85 is a graceful cellphone that has rich features inside an appealing shell. My only frustration is that Its keypad is a bit flatter compared to we'd like, however the rest of it left me very glad.

HSDPA, Wi-Fi, and the music player you may listen to by only connecting a couple of of regular headphones jacks straight into a special port — wonderful stuff. Alright, it is not a radical item, but it's an excellent one all the same, and if you are an avid N95 devotee awaiting for something a bit smaller and fine-looking, you might do a lot worse than this.

Nokia E50 Review

The Nokia E50 is a fine. business cellphone with decent business features, however it has a couple of defects that users of this cellphone have been reporting lately.


The Nokia E50 Is not a bad cellphone, however. For a quadband symbian smartphone, it is lite and lean. It is a decent cellphone for a businessman who is not concerned in missing a digital camera, Mp3 gadget, and all sort of other attributes that accompany an entertainment-type cellphone.

The business attributes are all available within the Nokia E50. It provides an amazing speakerphone, voice instructions and dialing, usable electronic mail compatibility, World Wide Web browsing (fast downloads thru EDGE), along with a handy Microsoft document extension viewer.
You will find two defects that the E50 possesses that you need to now. Owners have been protesting on the unalterable font size - it's really small. The font size makes it hard to use a few of the advanced attributes - elder users could particularly have difficulty with it. The Symbian menus, though highly effective, is a bit vulnerable to crashing.

Owners have suggested the E60 over the E50, or maybe other business gadget such as the Nokia 9500. You'll get a lot more business features out of those cellphones, and perhaps a little less disappointment.

Nokia E60 review

When compared the its older siblings, the E60 is slender weighing the sort of great power it packs in. Even though some could view this conception as tiresome, I think the straightforward blueprint, with the chromium-plate foregrounds at the slopes and at the front end, pretty good looking. It has a slide-on kind of battery cover and it necessitated quite an exertion to remove it. In general, the build grade of the E60 is very good, and the employment of matt rather than smoothened chromium-plate may deter fingermarks.
You have quite a few engrossing softwares that accompanied the E60 from the box. Apart from the entirely obvious calendar/to-do list, you'll find stuff like the world clock also the alarm, the calculator, an unit converter, office applications for writing and reading, and the entirely astonishing Nokia browser. You have also a fistful of Global Positioning System navigation/location type softwares pre-installed that we were cannot test, because of not featuring the Bluetooth Global Positioning System receiver. A catalogue software is available that leads to a few costless and trial run software downloads.
The E60 is basically an E61 or E70 without any a QWERTY keypad. Even though you have a few variations like bundled softwares and the employment of RS-MMC rather than miniSD, the E60 is unquestionably the cellphone for business operation owners who do not fancy employing QWERTY equipped cellphones. I've no hesitancy in granting the E60 with the extremely Recommended grading.

Nokia N97 review

Considered as the Nokia's high-end N serial of multimedia computers, N97 outdoes all earlier examples with a slide-out complete QWERTY keypad and a slanting 3.5-inch touch screen. Yes, there is that Nokia N810 Internet Tablet, however this N97 includes cellphone potentialities and is configured for the "demands of Internet-savvy buyers."

For instance, the smartphone offers convenient entry to some social-networking web site, and the browser holds streaming Flash movies. The N97 also presents a commodity Nokia addresses "social location," which employs the capablenesses of the built in A-GPS sensing elements and electronic compass to instinctively update owners' social networks, or allow them give their place via photographs or movies with acquaintances.

The main screen can be personalised with gadgets of best Web and social-networking web site. Lastly, the N97 is completely well-matched with Nokia's Ovi online services, which have the Nokia Music Store,N-Gage gaming platform and Nokia Maps the --tho' those services have yet to completely established in the U.S..

The Symbian-based smartphone also provides a songs and movie player, a 5 Mp camera with Carl Zeiss lens, and a walloping 32GB of onboard storage that can be enlarged with a 16GB microSD memory card.

This quad-band phone is HSDPA-capable cellphone, but it presently backs up just the 900/1900/2100MHz frequencies. There is built in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

Nokia E55 review

Call quality is never an problem with the E55, as it quickly lived up to my expectations of any Nokia-branded cellphone. Ring tones seemed fairly loud; I also discovered the E55’s vibro alert was mediocre strength-wise.

The E55 is arranged to arrive at May 2009 at 265 Euro (excluding taxes and subsidies). On balance, it is an acceptable gadget that fully complement the music prioritized Nokia 5630 XpressMusic and arrives with a few metallic accentuates, and also a few Eseries-specific software characteristics.

The principal thing holding the Nokia E55 is the battery time - for many this is going to be a very persuasive argument, but in person I feel it to be pretty niche offer that use be extremely favored essentially since the competitor faced from inside Nokia’s portfolio itself.

Nokia E75 review

Although the E75 has a completely dissimilar form factor, this smartphone is among the finest gadgets with complete QWERTY keypad in the market, with the most well-heeled keyboard to act with two hands. In lack of substantial demand for a firm functional, but extremely heavy and high priced gadget type Nokia E90 company flows in a huge segment, allowing the continuance of E90 to better times. They just expand segment, drawing in a fresh market segment, which weren't pleased with the E90 size or were not content with the little keyboard of E71.

Nokia E75 is configured in the form of contemporary monoblock, but along with the lateral sliding keyboard, Its form factor was initially employed by HTC. The size of the smartphone can't be depicted as little, it appears neither too flimsy (with the assistance of a sliding keyboard), nor too narrow. Based on the current flow of events, Nokia E75 is among the central gadgets for us this entire year, eventhough at first sight it becomes apparent that the form factor cannot at first be too publicly favored or in avid demand. All the same, Nokia, acts not excessive as a niche, This amazing achievement, allowing no space for its contenders.
Nokia E75 is configured for a market segment that's awaiting for maximal comfort of input, but is not ready to permit the high expenses and great size of contemporary communicators. The gadget is perfect, on one hand, and too niche, with the expense of the form factor.
No matter if Nokia will contend in making a side-slider a mass answer or not, is maybe not apparent yet.

How to Optimize and Maximize your Memory Card Storage?

Your data in MMC are held in many (disk) blocks.
So when you format utilizing 16K block, the storage used is going to be 16K although your file is merely 1K.

If you purchase MMC, it's generally pre-formatted with 16K blocks. As a result much storage is worthless as many installed software files are generally smaller than 10K.

You'll require a card reader for this:-

  1. Connect your card reader and transfer your entire files in the MMC to PC disk. (Be sure you adjust the show all/hidden files to "on")
  2. Then format the MMC using the usual command line "format" and also use the /A=size tag. Alternatively, you may use the Disk Management located in Administrative Tools to format the card. Be sure you choose FAT. For 256MB MMC, lowest block you may use is 4K, 2k for128MB, 1k for 64Mb and 512 byte for 32MB. (Note: You may not use the phone's "format MMC" feature to do it since the data formatting just erase the allocation table and doesn't alter the block size)
  3. Copy back every file to MMC.

Now you will discover that you'll have more storage.
256 Mb MMC will got back 30+ Mbs

What is BlueJacking?

First of all, you have to understand what Bluetooth is. There are whole lot of types of advanced devices that integrate Bluetooth as among their many features. PDAs, cellphones and laptops are some of these advanced devices. Bluetooth signifies that Bluetooth enabled gimmicks can transmit things like phone book/address book contacts, images & notes to other Bluetooth enabled gimmicks wirelessly over a range of approximately ten meters. So, we have got past the uninteresting part. Now, using a cellphone with Bluetooth, you may create a phone book contact and compose a message, for instance. 'Hello, you have been bluejacked', in the 'Name' field. Then you are able to seek for other cellphones with Bluetooth and transmit that phonebook contact to them. On their cellphone, a message will crop up telling "'Hello, you have been bluejacked' has just been picked up by Bluetooth" or something along those lines. For many 'victims' they'll have no idea as to how the message came out on their cellphone.

Symbian Quick Tips 2

Tip 1: If you'd like to avoid being "bluejacked", keep bluetooth switched off, or set your phone's visibleness to hidden.

Tip 2: do not want to take a watch and a cellphone? Set up the screen saver to show up day of the month and clock time, then you can dump the watch.

Tip 3: save up memory when putting in apps, by installing across bluetooth. This can be performed utilizing the nokia phone suite and bluetooth serial connector. Only runs with .SIS files, so java still need to be transmitted to the cellphone, but will save storage when employing .SIS files.

Tip 4: Operator logos
Utilize a filemanager such as FExplorer or SeleQ to create the folders: "c:/system/Apps/phone/oplogo". Create a .bmp picture to folder "oplogo" and restart the cellphone! The .bmp image size should be: 97 x 25 pixels

Symbian Quick Tips 1

Tip 1 : TO NGAGE owners; Did you aware you may install .sis files just using the cable given? Just plug it in, put the .sis file anyplace on e: (the mmc), not in any folders, root of e:, unplug, then search it in manager.

Tip 2: Save on battery and system memory by regularly checking the task manager which can be viewed by pushing down the menu key!!

Tip 3: Type *#06# to show the IMEI serial number, very useful for the unlocking your cellphone to other sim cards

Tip 4: Type *#0000# to see which firmware edition you're running

Tip 5a: put the screen saver to a quick time out period to maintain battery lifespan.
Tip 5b: do not restart the phone, or repeatedly turning it off and on. This aids increase the battery life.

How to use edit key and format the phone?

Tip 1 : Do u understand how to utilize the edit key (abc or pencil key)?
Here is how... in your inbox for instance; u wanna erase multiple sms, just push and hold the edit key, scroll down, then, push c to erase the checked sms. The edit key can also be employed to copy and past text in sms, just push and hold it and scroll across, select copy. pretty effective for putting song names in N Gages

Tip 2 : things happens, on a smartphone, its unavoidable you do something inappropriate, and its calls for a format of smartphone. to format the smartphone, type *#7370#, then insert your lock code, which is the second code of your smartphone. NOTE: battery must be full, else if format is interrupted by low battery, outcomes will be disastrous
I got wind the code *#7780# works too,.

for 6600 users, to format the smartphone, there is an alternate technique. Press and hold <3>, <*>, and the buttons, then power on smartphone, keep holding on the 3 button, till you come to a format screen. This method exclusively works on 6600, and need not put down the second code. BUT second code would be readjusted to default 12345.

How to release more RAM on your Symbian cellphone

>>> Method 1: Flight mode:

Place your cellphone in "Flight mode" with Psiloc System Tools. Set up System Tools, open it and choose "Flight mode". This way you are able to restart the cellphone without the SIM card so there will be no functioning cellphone tasks in the background. Instantly you can get up to 3,5 megabyte of free RAM!

Note: ironically enough, Flight mode does not run when Smart Launcher is set up, at least in my phone.
But I have also found out a few claims of individuals who have both apps functioning without any troubles.



>>> Method 2: Smart Launcher tip:

Set up Smart Launcher and run it. Go to Options, then Settings and set Launcher ON.
Immediately connect your charger and turn off your phone. Wait until the battery meter comes out and quick press the Menu button (do not hold).
Your menu should come out and now you may get 3,5 to 4,5 MB free RAM! (Hold Menu button to check RAM).

The tip is that with the charger connected, the cellphone must get a minimal software support for charging up, even when
the cellphone is turned off. And for some reason Smart Launcher has still got it's shortcut functioning and that's the Menu button. So when
you push the Menu button, you move immediately to the Menu with no other cellphone tasks functioning in the background so
you fool the cellphone and you have a lot of free RAM!
Note: as you disconnect the battery charger, the cellphone will turn off.

>>> Method 3: Menu :

This method I discovered it by myself, it unfreezes a bit about a hundred~two hundred kilobyte but I suppose it is valuable sometime

Close down your menu not by choosing the right selection button "exit", or pushing the menu key another time, they just cover the menu app but don't close it, to close it choose the left selection button "option" and scroll down and choice "exit"

So if you run an app calls for a lot of ram reopen menu and close it, it is helpful when running low bit rate video in realplayer.
