How to Convert Your S60 Nokia Phone Into iPhone

Bored of the interface of your S60 device? If you have tried everything else, the wallpapers, themes and every possible customization, then one thing that you just can’t dislike is iphone look. Yes that’s right; with MyPhone installed in your S60 mobile phone you can get the look and feel of iphone right in your S60 device.

As if now there are 2 versions of MyPhone available, one for the 3rd Gen Phone like E71, N73, N81 etc and another for 5th Gen Phones like 5800XM and Nokia N97. Every possible effort has been made to make the application as close as possible to the original and they have succeeded to quite an extent. Almost all the features of the home page are found similar to that of iphone. However despite everything you should never forget that you are using an addon on your S60. You have just changed the body; the soul still remains the same.

The slide to unlock feature, Bottom Dock has also been included, just as in iphone. Moreover all the icons are same as that of the iphone, there is no difference at all. That’s not it, just as in iphone you can change the orientation of the home screen icons by tap, hold and drag. You can also do that same in your s60 mobile phone using MyPhone. MyPhone is not available as free download, the cost is $12.99 but you can download the free trial version before you actually decide to shell out $12.99.

Some other features of MyPhone:

• Notifier Icon

• Sketchpad Application

• Auto Lock

Download free S40 Theme Studio for nokia

Now days there are so many phones being launched daily and most of them look approximately the same and just to make your phone different from others, a little innovation and customization is never harmful. So put your thought thinking cap on and give your phone the feel you want. The software is easily available for free and provides a repertoire of customization tools.
With this application you can create, edit the appearance of the themes, icons, wallpapers, animations etc. You can also change the sounds, colour schemes, ringtones and even the operator logo. In simple words you can change the every possible user interface components the way you want. Once you are satisfied with your creation you can also see it very clearly in the preview window and name it, then send it your phone via Bluetooth, usb or infrared.
In this official nokia software the user interface is partitioned into 2 sides. On one side you can see the theme you want to edit and on the other side you can see the changes that you make to your theme. The extent to which you can customize your theme is only determined by your innovation. Unlike the series 60 theme studious which is very complex, this tool is slightly less complex.
However the program is available in many languages but in none of the languages adequate installation instructions are provided. So it will take time for you to understand it and if you desperately want to make your own thing then you need to remember one thing, patience is a virtue as it will take quite some time to make a theme. What this application really lacks is the drag and drop functionality which is a must in every developer tool. We can just hope that the software was easier and more user friendly.

All in one Instant messenger for mobile phones

Ebuddy is one of the famous mobile instant messaging clients. This java based mobile application enables the user to chat with their friends from anywhere. This tool provides easy access to various famous instant messaging clients such as gtalk, msn, yahoo, MySpace, aim etc.This multiprotocol mobile based client provides an easy integration with all these clients.
To get ebuddy on your mobile is really simple, just install the software in your mobile phone and you are done. But to use this application you need to have a gprs enabled or a 3G enabled phone. Also if you don’t want to install this application to your phone you can use the web based version of this tool which can be logged in by accessing m.ebuddy.com and the application will start with the minimal features required for chatting.
Whats good about ebuddy is that it provides a single list for all your friends belonging to different IM clients, also what makes it better is that it incorporates the search feature in its buddy list which makes it easy to find a particular contact in a probably very long list. The webcam of the phone can be used to click your pic and set it as your avtar.The good features are not over yet, it also provides offline messaging support and that is quite a striking feature for a mobile based client
Its new feature that hides offline contacts is very brilliant as it saves on data transfer as less data is required to load the online contacts. But in order to take full benefit of this application you must have a flat rate package in which you just pay onetime fee and the data transfer later on is free, so it’s on you to decide on the best package available, for this consult with you service provider.

Download free Bluetooth hacking application for mobile phones

It is a program that enables the user to read the information of other’s phone and also enables to control the applications of the phone being hacked. The latest version being released is super Bluetooth hack 1.8 and this application is just a toy for some while others take it as serious stuff as it provides full access to the hacked phone. It is almost like owning the phone.
To connect to another phone is very simple and what you need to do is install the application. Installing the application is very easy. Transfer the .jar file into your phone’s memory and then just install the software in the applications folder. After you have installed just run the application, what you will see is BT INFO written on top of the screen. Then simply select the connect option and just pair with the device you want to gain control.

Once you are connected to other phone then this application provides features such as changing the profile, read the contacts and messages, switch off the phone, restart the phone, change the ringtone, change ring volume, play music, make phone calls, hang up in between the call and possible everything that you can do with your own phone.
Now to talk about the drawbacks, this application requires the victim to accept the incoming connection, so what you need to do is pair up with the device when the owner is not there and this makes this application nothing more than just another toy application. However you can make calls from the hacked phone but what’s sad is that you cannot speak or hear through your phone. Also the application is very much compatible with SE phones but it lacks complete compatibility with nokia phones. Source...

You can stick with your mobile phone's first network choice or, if there is a choice of providers, use the network selection menu on your handset to opt for an alternative.
3. Worried that your pre-pay phone can't be used to text from abroad? This depends on the network you use while overseas, but in most cases you should be able to use pre-pay phones in the same way as you would in the India. Again, check with your India network provider.
4. Check the telephone numbers you are likely to use before leaving the country. To text a India number from abroad leave out the zero at the beginning of the area code and replace it with the symbol '+' and India country code 91. However, your network may allow you to use special short codes without any need for international codes. This information should be available from your network provider. For calls to local landline numbers in the country you are staying you do not need to prefix it with an international code.
5. If you want to use your mobile phone for voice calls, or for any other text or voice services while overseas, check with the network provider to see what you can and can't do - and how much it will cost - before you leave the country.
6. Remember to pack your mobile phone charger, travel plug adapter and spare battery before you go off on your travels.
7. And remember to always switch your mobile phone off before boarding the aircraft.

How To: Change ‘0′ Shortcut to Bluetooth On/Off On Nseries

Bluetooth can be turned on/off by pressing the * key on some Eseries devices like the Nokia E66 and Nokia E71. This shortcut is not available on the Nseries phones. By hacking your Nseries S60 phone, there’s a patch that lets you change the ‘0′ shortcut that usually opens the web browser. I’ve changed it to open the bluetooth menu on my Nokia N95 8GB. By turning on bluetooth only when you need it, you can save battery life and prevent unwanted file transfers.

Prerequsites

The first thing you need is a hacked Nokia S60 phone. You can find out how to do this by reading How To Hack Your S60 Phone guide.

The instructions below include editing the original ChangeBrowserOnKey.rmp patch by FCA00000 and uploading it to your phone. The modified code is then shown afterwards for the bluetooth shortcut. If you don’t want to read about the modification, just scroll all the way down for the end result. Note: The code’s formatting might not appear properly on RSS readers.

All I did was change the code so that the bluetooth menu opens. You can change it to anything you want as long as you know the application’s UID code.

Original Code by FCA0000

Below is the original code from FCA00000. Unmodified, pressing 0 will open Opera Mini if you have that installed. Continue reading below to change it to bluetooth instead. Notice that lines starting with ‘;’ are comments.

; *** ChangeBrowserOnKey0 1.0 ***
; *** Change Browser On Key '0' ***
; Author: fca00000 , fca00000-at-yahoo-dot-es
; Date: 2008.06.01
; Firmware: tested on N80 v 5.0719.02 . Might work on preFP1+FP1
;
; When phone is in the StandBy screen, pressing key '0' opens the default browser.
; With this patch, you can open any other application.
; You need to know its UID. Then, swap bytes to little-indian to get xxDIUxxx. In other words: 0x12345678 becomes 78563412
; For example:
; FExplorer UID = 0xE00012DF therefore xxDIUxxx=DF1200E0
; Calculator UID = 0x10005902 therefore xxDIUxxx=02590010
; OperaMini UID = 0x101D3166 therefore xxDIUxxx=66311D10 In this case, be aware that it takes some time (5 seconds) to open.
;
; then, the patch becomes:
; SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100000000000000000:xxDIUxxx0000000000000000
; SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100100000035000000:xxDIUxxx0100000035000000
; As far as I know, nothing is broken. But I decline all responsability, of course.
; Anyway, here it is. Enjoy
; end of ChangeBrowserOnKey0
SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100000000000000000:66311D100000000000000000
SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100100000035000000:66311D100100000035000000

Modified Code For Bluetooth

Below is the code for bluetooth shortcut. Since the The UID for bluetooth menu is 10005951, convert it to little-endian which results in 51590010. See how the conversion is done? You convert ABCDEFGH to GHEFCDAB. The only modifications done are in the last two lines of the original code.

; *** Change Browser On Key '0' to Bluetooth ***
SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100000000000000000:515900100000000000000000
SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100100000035000000:515900100100000035000000

• Copy and paste this code to a new text file and make sure to save it with a .rmp extension.
• Transfer it over to the E:/patches folder. Create it if it is not already there.
• Enable it on ROMPatcher (see: How to Hack S60 phones) and set it to autorun so you won’t need to reactivate it after reboot. Source...

How To: Send Google Earth Location From Computer To Nokia Maps On Phone

I’ll show you how to get info from Google Earth to Nokia Maps. Part of the reason I needed to do this was finding tickets hidden by Nine Inch Nails around Los Angeles. Read more for the guide and backstory.

Backstory

One of my favorite bands is Nine Inch Nails. Later this summer they start the Lights in the Sky tour. In June, they also put up a .kml file to be used with Google Earth. There’s info about installation on their flickr page below.

The .kml file is connected to a server. On July 4th at 2PM, Nine Inch nails updated the .kml file. Around 6PM, someone noticed something strange in the KML file. A question mark was placed in Burbank. The only info said “Under a Rock”. I inputted the street name into Nokia Maps and drove to the location. I couldn’t get the exact location, so I had to navigate by eye when I got nearby. I found nothing there. I found out later in the night someone got there about 10 minutes before me.

On July 8, another question mark showed in Griffith Park. The clue said “in the pipe”. I didn’t find out about this one until it was long too late. It took two hours to be found.

On July 12 at 4:15pm, another question mark popped, this time it was near Anaheim. The clue said “Campsite of Anza”. This place was 50 miles away. I figured I had 1 hour to get there, so I hopped in the car and drove. I didn’t get there until 5:40. Someone got there before me again.

I didn’t have my N82 with me that day (I sent it out for repairs). I could have routed myself around the traffic with Google Maps and found the exact location with Nokia Maps a little quicker if I did.

This whole ordeal made me wonder, how do I get info from Google Earth to Nokia Maps. In the past, The Nokia Blog has covered Google Maps to Nokia Maps and Phone to Phone location sending, but not Google earth to phone.

Steps

• Start off in Google Earth. Select your location and save it. Be sure to save as .kml and not .kmz.
• Next, go to this website: http://poiconvert.free.fr/
• For the source format, select .kml
• Next upload your file.
• Finally, select your output format. You can choose formats for TomTom (.ov2), Garmin (.asc) and Nokia Maps (.lmx). I can’t test TomTom or Garmin, so I’ll talk about Nokia Maps.
• Send the .lmx file to your phone. I sent the file with bluetooth for ease of use. You can also plug in the USB cable and then transfer the file, then open it with a file explorer. You can also email the file to yourself as an attached file.
• Open the .lmx file and Nokia Maps will start up and find the location. Source...
