Google Search for Nokia e61i
Saturday, March 29th, 2008
Came across an interesting software after gmail and google maps called google search for the Nokia 3rd edition. After download and installation you will see the screen pop up as above. All you have to do is press ctrl a small pop in window opens up, you can type in what you want and presto a menu opens up which when you select opens your net browser automatically and starts searching. Pretty good tool for users who use google a lot, like me.
You can download it from mobile.google.com

Time to reset your Nokia e61i?
Friday, August 17th, 2007
After 3 months of heavy usage, installing various softwares, capturing hundreds of images and video clips the device did remain fast but started showing signs of instability. The usual memory full error close applications, safari browser closing itself, messaging becoming slow and gallery taking a long period to open up. In some cases like calender and gallery the option button not working became the norm. Did I overload the device? yes, absolutely but remember like all other platforms need tweaking so does the symbian. I strongly believe with all the installations, viruses that we don’t know every device needs to be optimized.

Using Keypad shortcuts on your Nokia e61i and other s60 devices…
Tuesday, August 14th, 2007 
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.

How to copy all files from 256 mb memory card to 1 gb memory card on Nokia devices?
Friday, August 10th, 2007
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.

Alternative for laptop Nokia e90, Nokia e61i and other Nokia devices?
Tuesday, August 7th, 2007
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.

It was taking 30 to 45 seconds to open up one email forget about the rest. I kept wondering why this was happening? After doing some research I learnt some interesting facts.

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007Most of you must already be knowing this. For those who don’t it is very simple, don’t laugh when I say I just figured it out yesterday. Lets say you want to copy some text from a sms first open it and then put it in forward mode.
