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 meters. So, we’ve got past the boring part. Now, using a phone with Bluetooth, you can create a phonebook contact and write a message, e.g. ‘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.
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)

3 – turn image clockwise
* – toggle on/off of full screen
5 – zoom in
0 – zoom out
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 would not let u copy that folder together. well seleQ can mark files to copy but it really takes time!
Formats of images:
supported ones: JPG UPF GIF87a/89a WBMB MBM TIFF/F PNG EXIF
Turn on/off the “click” sound made by the camera by selecting the ‘Silent’ profile or by turning warning tones on/off:
Menu > Profiles > “select your activated profile” > Personalize > Warning tones > On/Off. (This also effects the sound of Java games and apps).

Save Battery and Memory:
Save on battery and system memory being used by regularly checking the task manager which can be accessed by holding down the menu button!!
Unlocking Phone:
Type *#06# to display your IMEI serial number, very valuable for the unlocking your phone to other sim cards
Shit happens, on a smart phone, its inevitable u do something wrong, and ties 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 battery, consequences will b disastrous I heard the code *#7780# works too, pretty much the same i think. for 6600 users, to format the fone, there’s 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.
Firmware Version:
Type *#0000# to view which firmware version you are running
Increase Battery Life:
i. set the screen saver to a short time out period to prolong battery life.
ii. avoid restarting the phone, or repeatedly turning it on and off. This helps increase battery life.
Avoid Blue Jacked:
if you would like to avoid being “blue jacked”, keep Bluetooth turned off, or set your phone’s visibility to hidden.
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
Save memory:
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.
Operators Logo:
Operator logos Use 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
