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.

Nimbuzz one of my favorite chat software has been updated. Besides adding more interactivity to the older version and support for chat/voice for Aims and Gtalk they have also added support for Msn, Skype and Hyves (whatever this maybe). Current users can open Nimbuzz to update or other users can download from www.nimbuzz.com This is one of the best chat softwares I have used recently and I strongly recommend it as a chat/im client.
