With so many messengers in the web sphere here is another good Java IM I came across called MovaMessenger. Graphics wise this one is really good and it connects to almost all services one can think of. Initially you have to go through the typical registration procedure like any other messenger client.

Anthony Pranata’s famous screen shot 2.8 has been updated with additional shortcuts as blogged by symbian-device
All shortcuts with addtional key options to capture screenshots are as follow:
Backspace key was pretty useful instead of pressing 2 buttons now we can take a screen shot with just 1 button, I am still trying to figure out the camera key but have had no luck with it so far. Once again I thank Anthony Pranata for this wonderful screen shot that we cannot live without. Added it in the free ware section. It should work on Nokia e61i, Nokia e90 (reported by Juha Matti that version 2.8 does not work) Nokia e65, Nokia 6120 classic and other symbian 3rd edition devices.

Thanks to Lehman one of my readers and Angel at mobilefasicination who got me into this. We all know there are a lot of key shortcuts available on our device but either we keep forgetting them or do not use them to the maximum. I thought I will refresh everyone what they are and how they can help us in our device handling and allotting other active standby keys for different uses. Let me know if you know of any so we can keep updating.

Dictionary for S60 symbian 3rd edition has been added. Very simple format. Type in a word, hit options > lookup the meaning of the word gets found immediately. Initially I thought the word search would be online but it wasn’t which is pretty neat.
Dictionary should work on Nokia e61i, Nokia e90, Nokia e50, Nokia e65 and Nokia 6120 classic. Added it in the free ware section. Thank you Simon Judge for making this useful software. Following are a few screen shots….
Searched for ‘invention” this is what I got.

I have been not updating a blog as regularly as I was last month primarily due to extensive traveling. Thought I would catch up, here is a nice new carbon theme based on the Ferrari theme by Babi. I usually prefer the default icon based theme to the developer icon’s since the default icons show the actual program icons on the device. Added it in the e61i themes section. Enjoy!

Ok so this has been really bothering me for a while so I thought I will inform everyone.. The dpad on my Nokia e61i is getting chipped! I noticed a few rustish red blemishes being formed on the edges of the dpad. They were not that noticeable at 1st but now they are looking pretty obvious. It is pretty obvious that the material used by Nokia is not the same as it is for the keyboard. I know the main reason this is happening is that my nails grow really fast and that has contributed to it, but still my genetic makeup should not be this should not interfere with a solid product like the Nokia e61i. Nokia should have either used a rubber edge on the d pad or the same material that they have used on the keypad. Now the device is only 3 months old and has started looking old. What should I do? Yes those red marks you see are the ones I am talking about.

Nokia Content Copier
Okay so I admit I still had 256 mb memory card stuck in my Nokia e61i. I thought I will finally switch to 1 gb which cost me only $15. Now the momentous task was to switch all the info from my 256 mb to 1 gb I thought I will give content copier a crack and see if it finally works or not. After opening up the content copier I selected memory card back up only and after waiting for I don’t know how many minutes (mind you it is a pretty slow process) I finally managed to transfer files. Content Copier did work but to my utmost disappointment it copied only video, music, images, backup sms’s from sms export, contacts and a few useless items. Nopes no softwares were backed up. Then I thought I will give data transfer through cable a try.
Data Transfer using cable
After connecting the usb cable with my Nokia e61i the new drive was recognized as L drive on my laptop I copied the whole root folder to my PC G drive. The process was much faster in fact I think it only took 5 to 10 minutes. Then I copied the L folder and since I had put my mmc card with my 1 gb micro sd card in my laptop it had also created a K drive and pasted all my content in it. Please make sure to select all folders inside the root folder not the root folder. Alternatively you can also do the same with the usb cable i.e copy memory card content L drive back it up on a pc drive then copy/paste it to the new memory card. Again the process was very fast. I took my micro sd card out of the laptop and inserted in my nokia e61i. Voila all my programs, pictures, music, videos and other stuff got transferred without a hitch. Special thanks for erphan my colleague for giving this tip.

I finally took the plunge traveled for the 1st time without taking the laptop and just my Nokia e61i. Interestingly, what I have been doing since the past few months is forwarding a copy of all my emails on my gmail account. Now how that helped me was that whenever I needed some critical information I accessed my gmail account using the gmail application available at www.gmail.com/app and hit “search” presto I had all the info on my fingertips. Using gmail as an online secondary storage option is very helpful and I highly recommend it alternatively I am looking into pc access option from my device. I am trying a few pc access software will report back my findings.
