The ones you love the most (1)
With the Nokia E61, there’s S60’s usual ‘active’ standby screen. Don’t just take the shortcuts given, I’m sure you have ideas of your own as to your most used applications. You can change any of the seven shortcuts in the rather-hidden-away ‘Tools | Settings | Phone | Standby mode | Active standby apps’ (Phew, you really have to get to know the settings hierarchy on these devices!)
AD-15 stereo adapterGo Stereo!
For some penny-pinching reason, Nokia only supply the E61 with a mono headset. Run, don’t walk, to your nearest accessory online store and get one of Nokia’s Pop Port stereo headsets and you’ll soon be rocking to music from your miniSD card.
Hangup = Exit
Don’t keep switching back to the Standby screen using the Hangup button. This was OK on old versions of S60, but in almost every instance it closes the current application on the E61 - in other words, it acts as ‘Exit’. If you want to keep the current program running in the background, press Menu/Apps instead, twice if you want to get to Standby screen.
What’s running?
The one utility every computer user needs is a system task manager (i.e. what’s running). Luckily, the basics are built-in. Just press and hold the ‘Menu/Applications’ button. For more control, grab Best TaskMan.
Messages overview
There’s a handy (though inflexible) view of your top two SMS or emails available on the active standby screen. The trick is to go into ‘Messages | Settings | Other | Active standby mode’ and make your choice.
The ones you love the most (2)
If you get fed up scrolling down the Menu screen lookng for your favourite applications again, why not shuffle things round so that the apps you use the most are clustered right at the top? Highlight an icon and use ‘Move’, and you’ll find you can re-insert it anywhere in the list. If you have lots of favourites, make the most of the folder system (e.g. ‘Games’) and then put these folders near the top of the list, for speedy access.
