பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல்
இந்த கட்டுரை ஒரு தமிழ் வெப்தளத்தில்
பதியப்பட்டிருந்தது, படித்தேன் இதை ஒவ்வொரு பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் -
உலக நாடுகளையே இன்று கலங்கடித்துக் கொண்டிருக்கும் ஓர் கொடிய நோயின்
பெயர் இது.
கடந்த ஆண்டுகளில் பறவைக் காய்ச்சல் (சிக்குன் குன்யா) என்ற நோய் உலகளவில்
பல்லாயிரக் கணக்கான மக்களை வாட்டி வதைத்ததை போல், இந்த ஆண்டில் பன்றிக்
காய்ச்சல் நோய் உலக மக்களை பாடாய்படுத்திக் கொண்டிருக்கிறது.
முதன் முதலில் மெக்சிகோ நாட்டில் உருவானதாக கூறப்படும் இந்த கொடிய நோய்,
பின்னர் பல்வேறு நாடுகளுக்கும் பரவி, தற்போது இந்தியாவின் புனே நகரை
சேர்ந்த ரியா ஷேக் என்ற 14 வயது பள்ளி மாணவியின் உயிரை பறிக்கும்
அளவுக்கு பரவியுள்ளது. இதனால், ஒட்டுமொத்த இந்தியாவே அதிர்ச்சியடைந்துள்ள
சூழ்நிலையில், இந்நோய் பற்றிய கூடுதல் விபரங்களை அறிந்துக்கொள்வதும்,
அதிலிருந்து நம்மை நாமே வருமுன் காப்பதும் அவசியமாகிறது.
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் என்றால் என்ன?
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் (Swine flu) என்று அழைக்கப்படும் இந்த நோய், சளி,
இருமல், காய்ச்சல் ஆகியவற்றை ஏற்படுத்தும் புளூவைரஸின் ஓர் உட்பிரிவான H1
N1 என்ற வைரஸால் ஏற்படுகிறது. இது பன்றிகளின் சுவாச உறுப்பை தாக்கி,
கடுமையான காய்ச்சலை உருவாக்கி, படிப்படியாக உடல் உறுப்புகளை செயல் இழக்க
வைத்து இறுதியில் மரணத்தை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது. இந்த வைரஸ், பன்றிகளை
மட்டுமின்றி பறவைகள், குதிரை மற்றும் மனிதர்களையும் தாக்குகிறது.
கடந்த 1930ம் ஆண்டுகளில் முதன் முறையாக பன்றி இனங்களில் இந்நோய்
கண்டறியப்பட்டது. நோய்க்கான காரணம் குறித்து ஆய்வு செய்தபோது, இந்த வைரஸ்
மிக அரிதான ஓர் மரபு அணு தொகுதியை கொண்டிருந்ததை கண்டு ஆராய்ச்சியாளர்கள்
பெரும் ஆச்சரியமும், கடும் அதிர்ச்சியும் அடைந்தனர். அப்போதே இந்த
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் வைரஸ் மிக அபாயகரமானது என உலக சுகாதார நிறுவனம்
எச்சரிக்கை விடுத்தது. பின்னர் கடந்த 1965ல் ஐரோப்பாவிலும், 1976ம்
ஆண்டில் நியூஜெர்ஸியிலும் இந்நோய் கண்டறியப்பட்டது.
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் பரவும் முறை:
H1N1 வைரஸ், ஓர் பன்றியில் இருந்து மற்றொரு பன்றிக்கு வேகமாக பரவுகிறது.
நீண்டகால முயற்சிக்கு பின்னர் மனிதரை தாக்குதகிறது. ஆனால்,
மனிதரிடமிருந்து மற்றொரு மனிதருக்கு மிக எளிதில் தொற்றிக் கொள்கிறது.
பன்றிகள் வசிக்கும் இடம் அல்லது பன்றி பண்ணைகளில் பணிபுரிபவர்களுக்கு
இந்நோய் பரவி, அவர்களிடம் இருந்து மற்றவர்களுக்கு எளிதில் பரவுகிறது.
ஆனால், பன்றி இறைச்சி சாப்பிடுவதன் மூலமாக நோய் பரவ வாய்ப்புகள் இல்லை.
குளிர் மற்றும் பனிக்காலங்களிலுமே மிக அதிகமாக பரவுகிறது. குறிப்பாக இந்த
நோய்த் தொற்றுக்குள்ளாகி 5 முதல் 6 நாட்களில் பிறரையும் தொற்றுகிறது.
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் அறிகுறிகள்:
உடல் சூடாதல்,
உடல் பலவீனம்,
வலி,
தொண்டைப் புண்,
இருமல்,
பசியின்மை,
வயிற்றுப்போக்கு,
வாந்தி
போன்றவை பன்றிக் காய்ச்சலின் முக்கிய அறிகுறிகளாக கருதப்படுகின்றன.
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் பரவாமல் தடுக்கும் முறைகள்:
மக்கள் வசிக்கும் பகுதியில் பன்றிகள் நடமாடாமல் தடுக்க உரிய நடவடிக்கைகளை
எடுக்க வேண்டும்.
நோய் பாதிப்பு உள்ளவர்களை நேரடியாக தொட்டு பேசக்கூடாது. அவர்களிடமிருந்து
விலகியிருப்பது நல்லது.
பாதிக்கப்பட்டவர் அருகில் இருக்க நேர்ந்தால் வாய், மூக்கை மூடிக்கொள்ள
வேண்டும்.
கை, கால்களை நன்றாக சோப்பு போட்டு கழுவி சுத்தமாக வைத்திருக்க வேண்டும்.
பன்றிகளை வளர்ப்பவர்கள், பராமரிப்பவர்கள் மிகவும் கவனமாக இருக்க
வேண்டும்.
உலகளவில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல்:
கடந்த ஜூன் 11ம் தேதி உலக சுகாதார நிறுவனத்தால் கொள்ளை நோயாக
அறிவிக்கப்பட்ட இந்த பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோய், உலகம் முழுவதும் வேகமாக
பரவி வருகிறது. இதனால், இந்நோயை கட்டுப்படுத்த அனைத்து நாடுகளின் விமான
நிலையங்களிலும் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோய் குறித்து மருத்துவப் பரிசோதனைகள்
நடைபெற்று வருகிறது.
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோய் பற்றிய பாதிப்புகளை உலக சுகாதார நிறுவனம்
அவ்வப்போது வெளியிட்டு வருகிறது. உலகம் முழுவதும் சுமார் 1 லட்சத்து 34
ஆயிரத்து 503 பேர் பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளதாகவும், 816 பேர்
பலியாகியுள்ளதாகவும் அந்த மையம் தெரிவித்துள்ளது.
உலகளவில் மெக்சிகோ மற்றும் அமெரிக்கா போன்ற நாடுகள் இந்நோயால் அதிகம்
பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ள நிலையில், பன்றிக்காய்ச்சல் பாதிப்புள்ள நாடுகளுக்கு
செல்ல வேண்டாம் என பல நாடுகள் தங்களது நாட்டு மக்களை அறிவுறுத்தியுள்ளது.
இந்தியாவில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல்:
இந்தியாவில் கடந்த 2004ம் ஆண்டே டெல்லி, மிசோரம், மேற்கு வங்கம் போன்ற
மாநிலங்களில் இந்நோயின் அறிகுறிகள் தென்பட்டன. இதனால், இந்நோயால்
ஏற்படும் பாதிப்புகளை உணர்ந்திருந்த மருத்துவத் துறையினர், எச்1 என்1
வைரஸ் மனிதர்களை தாக்கும் முன்பே, பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோயை
கட்டுப்படுத்திவிட்டனர்.
எனினும், இந்த ஆண்டின் ஆரம்பத்தில் இருந்து வெளிநாட்டுப் பயணிகள் மூலம்
இந்தியாவுக்குள்ளும் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோய் பரவ ஆரம்பித்தது.
மகாராஷ்டிராவில் அதிகப்பட்சமாக 135 பேரும், டெல்லியில் 109 பேரும்
பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளனர். சென்னையில் 31 பேர் பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளனர்.
இந்தியாவில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சலால் பாதிக்கப்பட்டோரின் எண்ணிக்கை கடந்த 3ம்
தேதி நிலவரப்படி 574 ஆக உயர்ந்துள்ளது.
இந்நோய்க்கு புனே மாணவி ரியா ஷேக் பலியானதன் எதிரொலியாக, இந்தியாவில்
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சலை தடுக்க புதிய திட்டம் தீட்டப்பட்டு வருவதாகவும் மத்திய
சுகாதாரத்துறை அமைச்சர் குலாம்நபி ஆசாத் தெரிவித்துள்ளார்.
புனேவில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல்:
இந்தியாவில் பல்வேறு மாநிலங்களிலும் இந்நோய் பாதிப்பு ஏற்பட்ட போதிலும்,
மகாராஷ்டிர மாநிலத்திலுள்ள புனே நகரம் தான் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோயின்
தலைநகராக விளங்கி வருகிறது.
இங்குள்ள ஓர் பள்ளியை சேர்ந்த மாணவர்கள் சமீபத்தில் அமெரிக்க சுற்றுப்
பயணம் சென்று வந்ததாகவும், அவர்கள் மூலமாக பிற பள்ளி மாணவர்களுக்கும்
இந்நோய் தொற்றியதாகவும் கூறப்படுகிறது.
ஒரு கட்டத்தில் பள்ளி மாணவ, மாணவிகள் அதிகளவில் பாதிக்கப்பட்ட நிலையில்,
அங்குள்ள பல பள்ளிகளுக்கு விடுமுறை அளிக்கப்பட்டன.
இந்நிலையில், இந்தியாவில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சலுக்கு முதல் பலியாக புனே நகரை
சேர்ந்த ரியா ஷேக் என்ற 14 வயது நிரம்பிய பள்ளி சநேற்று முன்தினம்
பலியானார். பெற்றோரின் கவனக்குறைவு மற்றும் மருத்துவர்கள் முன்கூட்டியே
நோயை கண்டறிந்து முறையாக சிகிச்சை அளிக்காதது போன்றவையே ரியாவின்
மரணத்துக்கு முக்கிய காரணமாக கருதப்படுகிறது.
நோய் தொற்றிய 20 தினங்களில் மாணவி ரியா, பன்றிக் காய்ச்சலுக்கு பலியாகி
இருப்பது மருத்துவ உலகையே அதிர்ச்சிக்குள்ளாக்கியுள்ளது.
தமிழகத்தில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல்:
பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் நோயால் பாதிக்கப்பட்டோரின் எண்ணிக்கை தமிழகத்திலும்
நாளுக்கு நாள் அதிகரித்து வருவது. இந்நோயால் இதுவரை 35 பேர்
பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளதாக தெரிகிறது.
புனே மாணவி ரியா பலியானதன் எதிரொலியாக, தமிழக அரசும் பன்றிக்காய்ச்சல்
நோய் ஒழிக்க தீவிரம் காட்டி வருகிறது. அதன்படி, பள்ளி மாணவ, மாணவிகளுக்கு
இதுகுறித்து விழிப்புணர்வு அளிக்கப்பட்டு வருகிறது. விமானப் பயணிகள்
மட்டுமின்றி, ரயில் மற்றும் கப்பல் மூலம் தமிழகம் வரும் பயணிகளுக்கும்
மருத்துவப் பரிசோதனை செய்ய திட்டமிடப்பட்டுள்ளது.
இதுதவிர, மும்பை, புனே நகரங்களுக்கு தமிழகத்தில் இருந்து யாரும் செல்ல
வேண்டாம் என்றும் தமிழக அரசு எச்சரிக்கை விடுத்துள்ளது.
தமிழகத்தில் சென்னை கிங்ஸ் இன்ஸ்டிடியூட், வேலூர் கிறிஸ்தவ மருத்துவக்
கல்லூரி ஆகியவற்றில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சல் பற்றிய மருத்துவப் பரிசோதனை
நடத்தப்பட்டு வருகிறது.
சென்னை நகரில், தண்டையார் பேட்டை தொற்றுநோய் தடுப்பு மருத்துவமனை,
ராயப்பேட்டை அரசு மருத்துவமனை, ஸ்டான்லி அரசு மருத்துவமனை, கீழ்ப்பாக்கம்
அரசு மருத்துவமனை மற்றும் தண்டையார்பேட்டை பெரிபரல் மருத்துவமனை
போன்றவற்றில் பன்றிக் காய்ச்சலுக்கான மருத்துவச் சிகிச்சை அளிக்கப்பட்டு
வருகிறது.

Google Search Tricks
Google search has been a blessing for developers, not only devlopers, bloggers, surfers and i guess everyone who is using the immense power of internet. They are the best in the business with their superb algorithms. Google search has some hidden easter eggs through which one can utilise the power of Google in a fun rather tricky way.
So here we go with a bunch of amazing tricks:
EBooks,EMusic,EMovies with Google:
Do you wanna download any pdf file, word document or mp3 file? Google can be the first place to look forward to, isn’t it? You must be wondering what could be the trick in that, well an enormous amount of free downloadable files can be easily accessed at Open Web Directories. Its like turning Google into Napster of 2000, isn’t it VOW !!
So here is the tricky url syntax:
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(your choice) “name”
“your choice” can be either of the following file types:
-> wma|mp3 for Music
-> pdf|doc for Ebooks
-> mpg|wmv for Videos
and “name” can be any specific music file, movie or book, you are looking for.
For example:
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(wma|mp3) “Shakira”
This is a Google search string for searching open web directories containing downloadable Shakira music files.
Ofcourse, you can always bookmark the search result for future use. Don’t worry, just enjoy !!
Lots of free downloadable stuff with Google:
Haven’t you fed up with searching for free wallpapers, stock images or social sites and getting nothing out of the search results??? Have your ever thought, why this happen when you have made right search queries, The only possible answer to this can be the most popular and most likable word “free”, it attracts spams. Anyways, don’t be upset, we do have a trick for that also. All you have to do is to direct Google to numerous available social media sites which have an active community of users who have already reviewed and ranked various “free” items that may interst you.
So here are some tricky queries:
-> site:del.icio.us free “stock images”
-> site:netscape.com free “ringtones”
-> site:digg.com free “desktop wallpaper”
-> site:reddit.com free “wordpress templates”
-> site:stumbleupon.com free icons
Have fun with your favourite free stuff!!
Free Anonymous Web Proxies with Google:
All you have to do is look through the search results returned by the queries below, find a proxy that works, and enter in the URL of the site you want to browse anonymously.
Use the following query and enjoy:
-> inurl:”nph-proxy.cgi” “start using cgiproxy”
-> inurl:”nph-proxy.cgi” “Start browsing through this CGI-based proxy”
Search only Faces with Google Image Search:
You can use this trick on Google Image search to filter the search results so that they include only images of people. This search can be performed just by appending the string &imgtype=face at the end of the URL address after you perform a standard Google Image search.

Symbian Tricks
Here some free tips and tricks for Symbian mobile phones. With these secrets you can boost up your mobile phone.
Firstly have some extra ordinary Tricks:
How to reset The Operator Logo?
1) Go to the following dir :
C:\System\Apps\Phone\Oplogo
2) Delete any file in this directory
3) Restart the phone
How to copy & paste text:
Press and hold the pencil key and select your text using the scroll key.
Left function key will change to 'Copy'. Press it to copy the selected text to clipboard.
You can paste the clipboard contents the same way:
press and hold the pencil key and press 'Paste'. Or, press pencil key once and select 'Paste'
Retrieve lost MMC password:
1. Open file explorer. (SeleQ, FExplore, AppMan) 2. Search for 'MMCSTORE' 3. When you find it, send it to your PC 4. On PC, open the file with Notepad, or any word processor 5. there goes your password!
Repairing A Corruptted MMC:
Physically, memory cards are quite fragile pieces of high technology, susceptible to damage from various silly things like excessive heat, condensation, strong magnetic fields, physical damage from rough handling and/or bending! (similar to most electronic devices then..)
Given the natue of mobile memory card products, they are constantly being taken in and out of some form of interface with a mobile phone, a camera, a laptop, or desktop PC, or a separate memory card reader. The number of different devices they have to be able to interact with is in the thousands.
It is not too surprisingly, then that sometimes the state of the file system on the memory card can get damaged.
This may happen for a number of different reasons, including:
* removing the card from a device whilst an application is trying to read/write to it.. (Just be patient...)
* battery drain on a device whilst in use meaning an insufficent voltage failure whilst writing to the card.
* a poor implementation of the MMC standard on the device using the card
* poor connectivity software drivers on the device or the Windows PC/Mac
* physical damage like card or device being dropped, bent, getting wet etc...
As often as not, the problem is not terminal for your memory card, but just a software issue ( or in physical terms, it could be called "a temporary disalignment of the all the bits and bytes on the card").
The fix for this problem is the same as for any other file storage device (like a floppy or hard drive) with corrupt or invalid file system, namely; re-format the file system.
Re-Formatting your MMC Card:
It is possible that your mobile will offer you the option of formatting the memory card if it is found to be invalid. (However, the likes of Nokia nGage, Nokia 6600, and Siemens Sx1 often just prefer to reject the media as corrupted).
In that case, to format the card, you will need access to one or more of the following:
* A Windows PC or Mac.
* A separate multi-format memory card reader (verify that it is compatible with the MultiMediaCard -MMC- standard).
* (This can come in USB or PCMCIA flavours. If USB, try and ensutre it is a USB2 device.
* Alternatively, many of the newest laptop and desktop PCs now come with integrated Multi-format memory card readers.
* If you are using a separate memory card reader, then connect it up to your PC, and let windows recgnize the device through plug-and-play.
Now you can insert your MobyMemory card into the appropriate slot in the memory card reader. (Please note that because the MMC card is pretty much symmetrical it is very easy to insert it upside-down in the slot).
Open up [Windows Explorer] (or the equivalent for MAC users..sorry not well-versed in OS X).
There should be at least one icon visible for a [Removable Drive] in the list of available drives. (in fact, there is often a list of about 5 or 6 Removable drives, one for each of the different Memory card formats that your reader is compatible with).
Find the drive that is mapped to the MMC card by clicking on each in turn until it confirms there is a drive present. (Sometimes it is easiest to do this by trying a fully-functional MMC card in the MMC slot first so you can confirm which drive letter it is.)
(NB. It will always be labelled as a [Removable Drive], don't mistake it for one of your PC hard drives like [C:] drive, as that could be catastrophic later on!)
At this stage it may give an error message saying that the drive is unreadable.
By right-clicking on the drive letter, it will provide the option of formatting the drive.
Select format the drive, and the [Format Drive] dialog will appear (Double-check again to make sure it not your [C:] drive!).
There is only one setting to focus on in this page, and that is to ensure that the FileSystem selected for formatting is the [FAT] option (not FAT32, or NTFS or any other option)
(Note: All mobile phones, to my knowledge, and most cameras (etc..) use the FAT file system (or at least are compatible with it) on their memory card media.)
Now click on Format Now ( ensure [Quick Format] is not selected as this will not actually restore the file system space byte by byte, but only resets the header information so the drive thinks its empty again. This may not be enought to solve your corruption problem.)
The PC will now - hopefully!- chug away happily until it has restored the memory card space back to its original configuration (of course, any information on there is long gone by now!).
If you recieve an error message back from the [Format Now] request, then your problem may be more permanent, and not just a software issue. In this case, it may still respond to a format request in a different memory card reader or device.
If you believe it to be a failure of manufacture, then the warranty on the card offers the prospect of a replacement card, subject to a confirmation of the fault upon return of the goods.
Increase Your MMC Space
Your files in MMC are stored in multiple (disk) blocks.
So if you format using 16K block, the space used will be 16K eventhough your file is just 1K.
If you buy MMC, it is usually preformatted with 16K block. Therefore alot of space is wasted as most installed program files are usually less than 2K.
You will need a card reader to do this:-
1. Connect card reader and copy all your files in the MMC to computer disk. (Make sure you set the show all/hidden/os files to "on")
2. Do a format of the MMC using command line "format" and use the /A=size option.
Alternative, you can use the Disk Management in Adminstrative Tools to format. Make sure you select FAT. For 256MB MMC, smallest block you can use is 4K, 128MB is 2K, 64Mb is 1K and 32MB is 512B.
(Note: You cannot use the phone "format MMC" to do this as the format just clear the allocation table and does not change the block size)
3. Copy back all files to MMC.
Now you will find that you will have more space. 256mb MMC got back 30+ mbs
Speed Up Your Phone:
First go to your To-do List (default app of your Phone)
- Make a note and input as follows
Subject: Speed
Due Date: 01-29-2005(mm-dd-yy)
Priority: set to High
then press Done
- Make a second Note and input as follows
Subject: Qoukie
Due Date: 01-29-2005(mm-dd-yy)
Priority: set to Low
then press Done
- Do not exit yet, Press the Option of your Subject note w/c is Speed and Mark as done
- then Press the Option of your Subject note w/c is Qoukie and Mark as done
- Now, reboot your mobile.
Handy Tips:
- At the top of the main-menu and every folder, the keys 1 to 9 are shortcuts to the icons 1-9
- A shortcut on the left menukey in standby-mode will take more time to open than a shortcut on the right menukey. Reason: The left key is also used for the keylock so it shortly waits for pressing the * button.
- While writing text press and hold "#" to switch between Alpha mode and Number mode. You can also press a key long to insert its number.
- In standby-mode, press and hold 0 to launch your wap home page.
- If you have your keylock activated just press the on/off button to turn on your backlight to look at the time when it's dark without having to unlock the keypad.
- To keep the backlight on, run Torch (freeware), press and hold the Menu button and go somewhere else on the phone.
- To check your current firmware version simply type *#0000# in standby screen.
- To check your IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) type *#06# in standby screen.
- To check your Bluetooth device address type *#2820# in standby screen.
- Start up in Safe Mode (no 'auto start' apps will be running): Hold down the pencil key when you turn on the phone and hold it on until you have to enter your PIN code.
- Format the phone memory by typing *#7370# in standby screen.
- In standby mode,
45# + dials the number on your sim in memory slot 45.
50# + dials slot 50 and so on.
Edit/Delete Message
Now more questions and queries about Symbian OS phones:
Tip 1 : Do u know how to use the edit button (abc or pencil button)?
Heres how... in the inbox for example; u wanna 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. pretty good for placing song names in ngages
Tip 2 : Shit happens, on a smartphone, its inevitable u do something wrong, and tis 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 batt, consequences will b disatrous
I heard the code *#7780# works too, pretty much the same i tink.
for 6600 users, to format the fone, theres an alternative way. Press and hold <3>, <*>, and the buttons, then power on fone, keep holding on the 3 buttons, till u come to a format screen. tis method ONLY works on 6600, and need not enter the sec code. BUT sec code wun be reset to default 12345.
Tip 3 : TO NGAGE USERS; Did u know u can install .sis files simply using the cable given? Juz plug it in, place the .sis file anywhere on e: (the mmc), not in any folders, root of e:, disconnect, then look for it in manager.
Tip 4: Save on battery and system memory being used by regulary checking the task manager which can be accessed by holding down the menu button!!
Tip 5: Type *#06# to display your IMEI serial number, very valuable for the unlocking your phone to other sim cards
Tip 6: Type *#0000# to view which firmware version you are running
Tip 4a: Set the screen saver to a short time out period to prolong battery life.
Tip 4b: Avoid restarting the phone, or repeatedly turning it on and off. This helps increase battery life.
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/oplogo". Add a .bmp picture to folder "oplogo" and restart your phone! The .bmp picture size needs to be: 97 x 25 pixels
Tip 11: Check if the recepients phone is on
Delivery reports
or
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 it will relay a message back to your fone showing the time they recieved it. (haven't yet tried it myself though)
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 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, eg. '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.
Tip 13: 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)
1 - turn image anticlockwise
3 - turn image clockwise
* - toggle on/off of full screen
5 - zoom in
0 - zoom out
Tip 14: u 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 wun let u copy that folder together. well seleQ can mark files to copy but it really takes time!
Tip 15: Formats of images supported ones: JPG UPF GIF87a/89a WBMB MBM TIFF/F PNG EXIF

If you often copy large files to your MultiMedia Card, I recommend a card reader.
E.g. With a card reader it takes only 12 seconds to copy a 10 MB file!
Record the sound of a phone call using the (sound) Recorder:
Menu > Extra's > Recorder > Options > Record sound clip.
Note: short beeps are audible during call registration.
But there is a 60 second limitation so if you want unlimited sound recording get this app: Extended Recorder.
While writing text, press "#" to switch between upper and lower case and Dictonary on/off (predictive text input).
Press and hold "#" to switch between Alpha mode and Number mode.
Keyboard shortcuts for zooming and rotating images in Images:
1 = zoom in, 0 = zoom out, press and hold to return to the normal view.
2 = rotate anticlockwise, 9 = rotate clockwise, * = full screen.
In standby mode, press and hold the right soft key to activate voice dialling.
To add a voice tag to a phone number, open a contact card and scroll to the phone number and select:
Options > Add voice tag.
You can customize both soft keys located below the screen (in standby mode):

Why assigning Video Recorder in the right or left soft key does not work?
(Sound Recorder is launched instead of Video Recorder)
It's a bug with firmware version 2.50.
How to check your firmware version:
A "Firmware" is the phone's operating system stored in internal Flash memory of the device (disk Z.
Manufacturers release new firmware versions containing bug fixes, improvements and - sometimes - offering new functions.
Firmware upgrade can only be made in authorized Nokia service centre (point).
To check your current firmware version simply type *#0000# on main Phone screen.

Retrieve lost MMC password:
1. Open file explorer. (SeleQ, FExplore, AppMan) 2. Search for 'MMCSTORE' 3. When you find it, send it to your PC 4. On PC, open the file with Notepad, or any word processor 5. there goes your password!
Repairing A Corruptted MMC:
Physically, memory cards are quite fragile pieces of high technology, susceptible to damage from various silly things like excessive heat, condensation, strong magnetic fields, physical damage from rough handling and/or bending! (similar to most electronic devices then..)
Given the natue of mobile memory card products, they are constantly being taken in and out of some form of interface with a mobile phone, a camera, a laptop, or desktop PC, or a separate memory card reader. The number of different devices they have to be able to interact with is in the thousands.
It is not too surprisingly, then that sometimes the state of the file system on the memory card can get damaged.
This may happen for a number of different reasons, including:
* removing the card from a device whilst an application is trying to read/write to it.. (Just be patient...)
* battery drain on a device whilst in use meaning an insufficent voltage failure whilst writing to the card.
* a poor implementation of the MMC standard on the device using the card
* poor connectivity software drivers on the device or the Windows PC/Mac
* physical damage like card or device being dropped, bent, getting wet etc...
As often as not, the problem is not terminal for your memory card, but just a software issue ( or in physical terms, it could be called "a temporary disalignment of the all the bits and bytes on the card").
The fix for this problem is the same as for any other file storage device (like a floppy or hard drive) with corrupt or invalid file system, namely; re-format the file system.
Re-Formatting your MMC Card:
It is possible that your mobile will offer you the option of formatting the memory card if it is found to be invalid. (However, the likes of Nokia nGage, Nokia 6600, and Siemens Sx1 often just prefer to reject the media as corrupted).
In that case, to format the card, you will need access to one or more of the following:
* A Windows PC or Mac.
* A separate multi-format memory card reader (verify that it is compatible with the MultiMediaCard -MMC- standard).
* (This can come in USB or PCMCIA flavours. If USB, try and ensutre it is a USB2 device.
* Alternatively, many of the newest laptop and desktop PCs now come with integrated Multi-format memory card readers.
* If you are using a separate memory card reader, then connect it up to your PC, and let windows recgnize the device through plug-and-play.
Now you can insert your MobyMemory card into the appropriate slot in the memory card reader. (Please note that because the MMC card is pretty much symmetrical it is very easy to insert it upside-down in the slot).
Open up [Windows Explorer] (or the equivalent for MAC users..sorry not well-versed in OS X).
There should be at least one icon visible for a [Removable Drive] in the list of available drives. (in fact, there is often a list of about 5 or 6 Removable drives, one for each of the different Memory card formats that your reader is compatible with).
Find the drive that is mapped to the MMC card by clicking on each in turn until it confirms there is a drive present. (Sometimes it is easiest to do this by trying a fully-functional MMC card in the MMC slot first so you can confirm which drive letter it is.)
(NB. It will always be labelled as a [Removable Drive], don't mistake it for one of your PC hard drives like [C:] drive, as that could be catastrophic later on!)
At this stage it may give an error message saying that the drive is unreadable.
By right-clicking on the drive letter, it will provide the option of formatting the drive.
Select format the drive, and the [Format Drive] dialog will appear (Double-check again to make sure it not your [C:] drive!).
There is only one setting to focus on in this page, and that is to ensure that the FileSystem selected for formatting is the [FAT] option (not FAT32, or NTFS or any other option)
(Note: All mobile phones, to my knowledge, and most cameras (etc..) use the FAT file system (or at least are compatible with it) on their memory card media.)
Now click on Format Now ( ensure [Quick Format] is not selected as this will not actually restore the file system space byte by byte, but only resets the header information so the drive thinks its empty again. This may not be enought to solve your corruption problem.)
The PC will now - hopefully!- chug away happily until it has restored the memory card space back to its original configuration (of course, any information on there is long gone by now!).
If you recieve an error message back from the [Format Now] request, then your problem may be more permanent, and not just a software issue. In this case, it may still respond to a format request in a different memory card reader or device.
If you believe it to be a failure of manufacture, then the warranty on the card offers the prospect of a replacement card, subject to a confirmation of the fault upon return of the goods.
Increase Your MMC Space
Your files in MMC are stored in multiple (disk) blocks.
So if you format using 16K block, the space used will be 16K eventhough your file is just 1K.
If you buy MMC, it is usually preformatted with 16K block. Therefore alot of space is wasted as most installed program files are usually less than 2K.
You will need a card reader to do this:-
1. Connect card reader and copy all your files in the MMC to computer disk. (Make sure you set the show all/hidden/os files to "on")
2. Do a format of the MMC using command line "format" and use the /A=size option.
Alternative, you can use the Disk Management in Adminstrative Tools to format. Make sure you select FAT. For 256MB MMC, smallest block you can use is 4K, 128MB is 2K, 64Mb is 1K and 32MB is 512B.
(Note: You cannot use the phone "format MMC" to do this as the format just clear the allocation table and does not change the block size)
3. Copy back all files to MMC.
Now you will find that you will have more space. 256mb MMC got back 30+ mbs
Speed Up Your Phone:
First go to your To-do List (default app of your Phone)
- Make a note and input as follows
Subject: Speed
Due Date: 01-29-2005(mm-dd-yy)
Priority: set to High
then press Done
- Make a second Note and input as follows
Subject: Qoukie
Due Date: 01-29-2005(mm-dd-yy)
Priority: set to Low
then press Done
- Do not exit yet, Press the Option of your Subject note w/c is Speed and Mark as done
- then Press the Option of your Subject note w/c is Qoukie and Mark as done
- Now, reboot your mobile.
Handy Tips:
- At the top of the main-menu and every folder, the keys 1 to 9 are shortcuts to the icons 1-9
- A shortcut on the left menukey in standby-mode will take more time to open than a shortcut on the right menukey. Reason: The left key is also used for the keylock so it shortly waits for pressing the * button.
- While writing text press and hold "#" to switch between Alpha mode and Number mode. You can also press a key long to insert its number.
- In standby-mode, press and hold 0 to launch your wap home page.
- If you have your keylock activated just press the on/off button to turn on your backlight to look at the time when it's dark without having to unlock the keypad.
- To keep the backlight on, run Torch (freeware), press and hold the Menu button and go somewhere else on the phone.
- To check your current firmware version simply type *#0000# in standby screen.
- To check your IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) type *#06# in standby screen.
- To check your Bluetooth device address type *#2820# in standby screen.
- Start up in Safe Mode (no 'auto start' apps will be running): Hold down the pencil key when you turn on the phone and hold it on until you have to enter your PIN code.
- Format the phone memory by typing *#7370# in standby screen.
- In standby mode,
45# + dials the number on your sim in memory slot 45.
50# + dials slot 50 and so on.
Edit/Delete Message

Tip 1 : Do u know how to use the edit button (abc or pencil button)?
Heres how... in the inbox for example; u wanna 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. pretty good for placing song names in ngages
Tip 2 : Shit happens, on a smartphone, its inevitable u do something wrong, and tis 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 batt, consequences will b disatrous
I heard the code *#7780# works too, pretty much the same i tink.
for 6600 users, to format the fone, theres an alternative way. Press and hold <3>, <*>, and the buttons, then power on fone, keep holding on the 3 buttons, till u come to a format screen. tis method ONLY works on 6600, and need not enter the sec code. BUT sec code wun be reset to default 12345.
Tip 3 : TO NGAGE USERS; Did u know u can install .sis files simply using the cable given? Juz plug it in, place the .sis file anywhere on e: (the mmc), not in any folders, root of e:, disconnect, then look for it in manager.
