Best currency convertor for e71

2009-05-24T02:19:00.000-07:00

Handy converter is the best currency converter I have seen so far. Unlike the crappy built-in converter on e71 where you have to update the currency rates manually, this can be updated via wifi/gprs straight using the program itself! Now you can have accurate and up-to-date conversion rate on your phone. Not only does it do currency conversion, it also do measurements as well so try it yourself!

Best dictionary for e71 - MSDict Concise Oxford English Dictionary and Thesaurus

2009-05-16T18:29:00.000-07:00

The built in dictionary for e71 has very limited vocabulary words. Try words like 'tawdry' and you wont have any search results. But this concise oxford dictionary is different, it has all if not most of the words I have searched so far and provided very detailed explanation. This is a holy 2 in 1 program, use the settings to switch between the dictionary and thesaurus.

*Note: if you are having problem entering words for the dictionary on a e71, press and hold 'shift' (the 2nd button to the right from bottom extreme left hand side) while typing the letters.

why is there no sound with your java games on e71? ; the speaker came out full blast upon opening java games

2009-04-05T21:33:00.000-07:00

If you want your java games to have sounds, make sure ur current phone profile has the 'warning tone' on. And if you are complaining that the speaker comes out at full blast upon opening a java game then I am sorry to say that there is no way to adjust the volume via the call volume button on the right side of the phone. All of the s60v3 (.sis or .sisx) games have build-in volume control while only some java games have this function, and this is the only way to adjust the volume of the game.

How to improve youtube video quality on e71?

2009-02-14T21:56:00.000-08:00

Have you ever wonder why the youtube on your e71 graphics is so horrible? There are 2 solutions to go about tackling this problem.

1) use a software called mobitubia. The video quality played by this youtube based software is very clear. Enjoy!

dl here:
http://www.mobitubia.com/dp/?q=node/2

2) use skyfire browser. It has build in flash that allows you to watch any streaming video on your e71 !! It is also faster to watch with this compared to using mobitubia.

dl here:
http://www.skyfire.com/

Take note that while your are watching video, your screen will go to blackout standby mode. To solve this problem get S60spoton as mentioned in previous post.

Turn the backlight to permanent on and enjoy your streaming video on skyfier browser !

For the many chinese chess fans like me, it is sad to see that most chinese chess java softwares are NOT free !!! However I finally found a totally free Chinese Chess software and here it is:

When you are playing, if it prompts you to purchase certain features via sms, just switch profile to offline mode and send the sms. You wont actually send any sms since when you are 'sending' the sms your are not using any service provider in offline mode. This makes the whole software totally free!!!

How to hide files in my e71?

2009-02-12T16:40:00.001-08:00

When you have a large quantity of image files such as those from google maps, it took a very very long , if not infinity time for you to browse your image gallery. I found a way to counter this by installing Y browser.

http://www.drjukka.com/YBrowser.html

With Y browser I can safely hide all those image files from google maps and those images wont show up in my image gallery ^^.

How to change message tone?

2009-02-12T16:33:00.001-08:00

Some , if not all of you have this problem when you try to change the message tone. Your sound files doesn't shows up even though you tried to browse your phone memory, it took very long for your e71 to scan the entire memory and eventually it pops out a 'download sound' and 'off' options. Don't worry this can be easily solved by removing your memory card temporary and the sound list from your phone will show up on your e71 (remember to transfer your desired ring tone to your phone memory first). This is a bug, e71 have a problem producing the sound list when it is more than , erm letz say 400 i suppose... but once you remove your memory card, the number of sound files becomes manageable.

Tips on preventing accidental access to GPRS/WAP

2009-01-26T04:57:00.000-08:00

When you are using GPRS, an icon will show up on the top left hand side of the home screen as 3.5g with 2 arrows beneath (symbolise hsdpa, high speed downlink packet access)

Fear your bill will explode from accidental usage and yet do not want to delete all the WAP connections? No worry, here is the trick. Go menu>tool>settings>connection>access points. For all the WAP/GPRS access point, ask every one of them to prompt for password.

So when you are using internet/application that require internet access, e71 will pop out a prompt box for username and password.

Note: if you do not want your e71 to have access to GPRS, press CANCEL on prompt. If you enter a wrong username or password, the GPRS/WAP connection will still proceed because most WAP do not require username and password in the first place. The pop out prompt box is only to warn you that an internet connection with GPRS is about to be made.

Check your gprs usage (from IDEAS WAP, IDEAS Internet etc) here :

It is in MB, then multiply by 1000 and $0.0053/kb and you will get the charge.

How to get rid of BOTH the breathing light and clock in standby mode?

2009-01-26T04:46:00.000-08:00

have you ever wonder which of these 2 consume more energy? (breathing light or clock screen saver) I did a test with nokia energy profiler and found that with the clock screen saver w/o breathing light, my e71 is consuming 0.02watt. And breathing light w/o screen saver is 0.01watt.

If you want to switch off BOTH screen saver and breathing light, you need the following program:

http://home.pacific.net.sg/~welic/cClock.html

step 1: Go menu > tools > Themes > power saver choose "cClock v1.21"
step 2: Go menu > tools > profiles> General> Personalise > Breathing light choose "off"
last step: Go Menu > Installations > cClock > inside the programs there are many tabs, use the left and right button on the D pad to navigate. Here is my settings:

General: Display color "white on black" ; Power saving mode "yes" ; Backlight "no" ; whole background "no"
Time: "no"
Analog clock: "no"
Date: "no"
week: "no"
Icon: "no"
Chinese: "no"
stopwatch: "no"

options that I never mention means doesnt matter.

Best browser for e71

2008-12-17T06:46:00.001-08:00

There are 2 very impressive browsers namely Opera Mini and skyfire.

Opera mini has a much faster surfing speed than Skyfire but no build in flash. Which means you cannot view any streaming video using this browser on your e71. Skyfire on the other hand has this build in flash that allows you to watch your favourite streaming dramas on your e71 such as tudou.com, youku.com etc u name it! Itz surfing speed is also much faster than the build in e71 broswer. Give it a try o.-

Failed to remove files from e71

2008-12-16T21:03:00.001-08:00

This happens when the un-installation process is interrupted i.e. you force shut down your phone while removing the file.
To solve this problem, simply install the file again and then uninstall. If this fails, the only choice left is a factory reset i.e format your phone.

Dial *#7370#

Certificate expired

2008-12-16T20:59:00.000-08:00

Did you encounter this problem 'Certificate expired' when installing files on your e71?
Fred not, just change your phone's year to a previous year i.e. from 17/12/2008 to 17/12/2007 and carry on the installation. Remember to change back to the current year after you have made your installation.

How to install unsigned files?

2008-12-16T20:54:00.000-08:00

Note that some unsigned files are protected, so even if you follow these steps, your symbian still wont allow you to install the files. Hacking the OS is required but it is not recommended and wont be covered in this blog.

Tips on playing java games on E71

2008-12-16T19:28:00.000-08:00

Are you frustrated that everytime when you are playing java games on E71, you need to press the function key (the bottom left most key) to use the num pad (0-9, *, #) ?

Fred not here is the solution! When you are in game, just press the function key 2 times and you can use the num pad for as long as you wish. Double press again to revert back.
