Tip 1 :
Do u know how to use the edit button (abc or pencil button)?
Heres how... in the inbox for example; u want to delete multiple sms, simply hold the edit button, scroll down, and then, press c to delete the marked sms. The edit button can also b used to copy and past text in sms, simply hold it and scroll across, choose copy.
Tip 2 :
Shit happens, on a smartphone, its inevitable u do something wrong, and this calls for a format of your/phone. to format the fone, press *#7370#, then enter the lock code, which is the personal code of the phone. NOTE: battery must be full, else if format is disrupted by low battery, consequences will be disastrous.
The code *#7780# works too, pretty much the same
for 6600 users, to format the phone, there is an alternative way; Press and hold <3 >, <*>, and the send buttons, then power on phone, keep holding on the three buttons at thesame time, till you come to a formating screen. This method ONLY works on S60 series, and need not enter the security code of the phone. BUT security code would be reset to default 12345 after formating.
Tip 3 :
TO NGAGE USERS

Tip 7:
If you would like to avoid being "blue jacked", keep bluetooth turned off, or set your phone's visibility to hidden.
Tip 8: 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.
Tip 9:
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.
Tip 10:
Operator logos
Use a filemanager like FExplorer or SeleQ to add the folders: "c:/system/Apps/phone/o plogo". Add a.bmp picture to folder "oplogo" and restart your phone! The.bmp picture size needs to be: 97 x 25 pixels

Type *0# your message in the message composer window space then write your message, the recipient will not see the star zero hash bit - just the message When they read it will relay a message back to your phone showing the time they recieved it.
Tip 12:
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 is a transfer wzard which 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 metres. So, we've got past the boring part. Now, using a phone with Bluetooth, you can create a phonebook contact and write a message and send that phonebook contact or message to them.eg. 'Hello, you've been bluejacked', in the 'Name' field. On their phone, a message will pop-up saying "Hello, you've been bluejacked" has just been received by Bluetooth" or something along those lines. You can search for other phones with Bluetooth and make calls, send messages with the persons airtime, read their inbox, contacts, call logs or even see the buttons the person typed/is typing at that moment. For most 'victims' they will have no idea as to how the message appeared on their phone. The bottom line is; you are operating another persons phone with your phone and the bluetooth as moderm (vehicle transfering the information wirelessly).
NOTE: For you not to be blue jacked, turn off your bluetooth when not in use.
Tip 13:
While you are viewing a picture in your phone's gallery, press one of these shortcut keys (definitely works on S60 series, not sure about other symbians)
1 - turn image anticlockwise
3 - turn image clockwise
* - toggle on/off of full screen
5 - zoom in
0 - zoom out
Tip 14:
You can select all files in a folder by selecting The folder and copy it then paste it somewhere else. However you need to make a new directory. Fexplorer would let you copy that folder together. Well seleQ can mark files to copy but it really takes time!
Tip 15:
A soft and Hard reset
A Soft-reset - the process of resetting all the settings of the phone to the factory default! No applications are deleted! A Hard-reset is like formatting a drive! It does format the memory. Everything that has been installed after the first use of the phone is deleted! It will recover the memory of the phone to the state you purchased it! It is done by inputing the following code: *#7370#
NOTE: The battery must be full or the charger has to be connected to the phone.
