SET UP GMAIL ON S60 MOBILE PHONE

• Google provides us a service, called GMail Mobile, where we can access GMail account using web browser in our mobile phones. Actually, as S60 phone users, you don’t need web browser and GMail Mobile to access your GMail account. You can use Messaging application and download your messages to your phone using POP3 protocol.
• Which method is better, using web browser or POP3?
• Each of us has our own preferences. I myself would prefer POP3 because I can download my messages to my phone. Later when I need to read my email again, I don’t need to connect to the Internet. Once again, it is just a matter of taste. You can compare it with accessing email using Outlook/Thunderbrid and Web-based email.
• How can you setup GMail mailbox on your S60 phones?
• Firstly, you need to enable POP access on your GMail account. Logon GMail and click Settings Forwarding and POP.
• Enable your POP Download by selecting “Enable POP for all mail” or “Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on”.
• I would also recommend selecting “keep GMail’s copy in the Inbox” so that you can still access your email from the web interface.
• Next, you need to setup a new mailbox in your S60 phones. Launch Messaging application.
• Select Options Settings E-mail Mailboxes. When the phone ask to create a new mailbox, Select Yes. If you have already a mailbox, the phone will not ask you to create a new mailbox. In this case, select Options New mailbox. Enter the following information for your new mailbox (note that some S60 phones might have different menus and labels):





• Mailbox name: GMail
• Access point in use: [Select Access Point of your operator](for airtel:mobile office)
• My e-mail address: [Enter your Gmail address]
• Outgoing mail server: smtp.gmail.com
• User name: [Enter your GMail address]
• Password: [Enter your GMail password]
• Incoming mail server: pop.gmail.com
• Mailbox type: POP3
• Security (ports): On (SSL/TLS)
• Port: Default (993/995)Note: On some S60 devices, you have to specifically enter port number. In that case, enter 995 as port number for POP3.If you need to enter port number for SMTP too, then use 465.

. . . .

`
. . . .

`
. . . .

• There are actually some other settings you can set, for example your name, signature, etc.
• Now you are ready to go. If you go to the main menu of Messaging application, you should see your GMail mailbox there. You can download your messages or write new messages.

Please write in your comments;so that i would know what you need & wat problems do i hav in my blog. (NOTE :If you want to avoid 6630 giving you untrusted site warning, use pop.googlemail.com instead of pop.gmail.com.

This may apply to other S60 phones.

Laptop Operating Temperatures

I was afraid of laptop operating temperatures for a long time, and I still have that fear of burning hot laptops. I know, I know, the latest processors are much cooler than the ones laptops used about a decade ago, but that's not the main issue. Have you ever wondered about health issues that can be closely related to the laptop operating temperatures? Probably not, so here's the story...


If you’re one of the males using a laptop, various studies conducted a few years ago have shown that you may want to get a cool one. No, not necessarily a cool laptop computer like the MacBook, but a cool one like any laptop that doesn't get hot... Why that?

Well, these studies found that, as long as the laptop operating temperatures are high, the result is an excessive amount of heat being transferred to the scrotum, and ultimately affecting the quality and quantity of the user’s sperm. So that's why Peter North doesn't have a notebook, now I finally know the answer!

Now, don't throw away your hot laptop, because this only happen when you are using it on your lap. Simply place it on a desk, and everything should be fine, but...

...what are the best laptop operating temperatures?

Well, some may tell you to get a certain program to find out how hot is your laptop, get some additional cooling, and so on, but I am not one of those. As long as your laptop runs fine, it doesn't really matter how hot it is, as long as it's not outside the warranty period. Just be sure to always backup your precious data, because we all know that laptop operating temperatures are higher than those of desktop computers, so breakdowns are more frequent.

These being said, remember there's no such thing as best laptop operating temperature. If it works, be happy with it and backup on a daily basis. Good luck

How to increase your Laptop Battery's Life?

Dear friends you have read many interesting tips from my site and I think you have gained more knowledge from them. Now I have a more interesting tip to increase your Laptop's battery life. There is no matter, laptop manufactures gives you the guarantee about the battery that how long it works. The battery of laptop always stops working very early at some stage in essential research, just like when you are watching a DVD movie.

Follow the few steps to increase the laptop battery's life:


Lower the backlighting on your screen.

The screen of your Laptop takes up significant amount of power and you do not require its maximum brightness. You should have to check your system and decrease the screen brightness it to a comfortable point.


Stop your wireless signal when you are not using.

After turning off your Laptop can save max. 20 minutes of your laptop's battery time because WiFi can use a considerable quantity of power. By right clicking you can stop your WiFi signal when you are not using.


Manage the correct power scheme in XP

Windows XP contain a number of predetermined power plans, which control settings like how rapidly your laptop turns off and when your screen saver boots in. You can change your laptop power scheme by choosing Control Panel > Power Options. For max. Battery life from the "Power scheme" chooses the option "Max. Battery" and decline the list. There are good choices for you just like "Low Power Mode" and Portable /Laptop. They don't conserve as much power as Max Battery. After selecting a power scheme you click Ok button to finish the process.

Basics of SE phone- IMEI; CID; EROM; CDA; GDFS

Here I give some basics of Sony Ericsson Phone link IMEI; CID; EROM; CDA; GDFS read this carefully before your going for any flashing, modding, costomizing.

CID = This "number" defines the version of SE's protection present in the phone.New CIDs are deployed from time to time, for the sole reason of preventing them from beeing unlocked/flashed/tampered with by non-SE service tools. Current CIDs in use by SE are 29/36/37/49/50/51/52/53. SE-based LG/Sharp phones use the same system (but different versions). The OTP (One Time Programmable memory) and EROM of a phone might be protected by different CIDs, usually the case in newer K600s/K608s.

CDA = This "number" defines which variant of a specific firmware a phone is supposed to have. It lets, among others, SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) know which language-pack/branding/bandlocks a phone is to be flashed with. A generic (unbranded) K750 for use in Scandinavia will be CDA102337/12, whilst a Telenor-branded K750 will be CDA102338/62. Both will be flashed with the same languages/dictionaries, but the latter will be flashed with Telenor-branded firmware.

BLUE/BROWN/RED:This "color" defines what kind of phone we are dealing with. BLUE phones have been assembled at the factory, but never been programmed with software/GDFS/IMEI (remember kids: the IMEI is stored in the OTP (One Time Programmable memory). BROWN phones are "developer phones", for testing. Less restrictions are present, as these are used for "debugging/beta" purposes. As of CID36, a phone has to be converted to BROWN to unlock it.RED phones are your typical retail ones.

GDFS:This is the phones "stash", where all settings and calibration data is stored (this also goes for the firmwares IMEI-resource as well as the SIMlocks). Similar to other brands use of NVRAM (Non-Viotile Random Access Memory).

IMEI = International Mobile Equipment Identity. A 15-digit number which includes information on the origin, model, and serial number of the device. The model and origin comprise the initial 8-digit portion of the IMEI, known as the "Type Allocation Code/TAC". The remainder of the IMEI is manufacturer-defined, with a "Luhn check digit" at the end (which is never transmitted). The "Luhn check digit" is calculated from the rest of the IMEI.
It should be noted that in SE-based phones, the IMEI is stored in two places, the OTP (One Time Programmable memory) and GDFS. The GDFS IMEI is normally read from the OTP, but this can be circumvented by SETool function to "change" the IMEI. This patches the firmware into allowing different OTP/GDFS IMEIs. It is the GDFS IMEI that is reported to the network, so changing this will "de-bar" blocked phones. SEUS is not fooled by this, on the other hand, and it should also be noted that doing this is illegal in most countries.

EMMA = Service software/solution by SE themselves. Protected by the EMMA smartcard to prevent non-licensed usage. Current version is EMMA3, though EMMA2 is still alive (but kinda useless on newer phones). The EMMA smartcard contains an algorithm that allows EMMA to communicate directly to/with the phones CID, so performing operations the way they were intended. The smartcard and its algorithm has not been cracked. Current EMMA access levels exists: Service Update - Can't unlock phones. Service Update Pro - Can't unlock phones. Network Operator - Can't unlock phones (but sure as hell can lock them ). Service Center Std - Can't unlock phones. Service Center Rc - Can unlock phones, as they have a special version of the smartcard with a CSCA key. Research & Development - Can unlock phones, as they have a special version of the smartcard with a CSCA key.

DB2000, DB2010, DB2020, DB3150 = SEMC (Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications) hardware platforms. It's something similar to chipset in PC. DB2000 (another name is Marita) is a GSM+3G (UMTS) capable platform, SE K600/K608/V600/Z800/W900, Sharp 802sh, 902sh, 903sh and LG 3G phones are based on it. DB2010/2012 (Marita compact) is GSM-only, non-3G, platform. Most not very old and modern SE phones like K300,K500,K700,K750,S700,W300,W550,W800,Z520,Z530 are based on this chipset. DB2020 is the newest product of SEMC. K800, K790, K610, Z710 etc, Sharp 904sh feature this most secure (from SE's point of view) platform.
Newer phones uses the DB3150 platform, K850, W910, etc...
Sony Ericsson Smartphones uses the DB2001 platform (need more info), Like the W960...

EROM = Extended ROM. This is the base part of the software which isn't flashed in normal update operations. It controls the flashing interface, the boot loader, etc.

FOTA = Flash Over The Air. The Sony Ericsson Remote Update Service is a convenient way to easily and remotely update your mobile phone to the latest available software version. This is done over the air; no connection to a PC is needed. The cost for using Sony Ericsson Remote Update Service is your operator's fee for transferring the data to your phone. This varies widely between different operators; if you are uncertain you should contact your operator. User content in the phone, such as images, music, ringtones and videos, is not affected by the update.

Customization = Changing or replacing original content of the phone, like ringtones, wallpapers, icons, themes, that come with branded or unbranded phones. It's nothing more than first default configuring of the phone after flashing FS file. Usually the process is:
1. Writing customize.xml and server & java certificates in /tpa/preset/custom in sonics folder to /tpa/presest/custom folder in the phone's internal file system
2. When the phone starts after flashing, it parses that xml file, puts settings written in that xml into the phone's GDFS and works out certificates (some go to Trusted certificates, some got Java certificate etc)
If you open customize.xml you can change almost any initial settings like time zone, date, internet profiles etc.

Branded Phones = Some network providers place their own ringtones, themes, icons, links etc within phone's software. (eg. vodafone/telenor, orange, t-mobile, rogers, cingular etc.) Debranding means removing all this content and restoring phone to it's original factory SONYERICSSON condition. This will not damage phone in any way! You will loose Operator Icons, and links, WAP, and MMS settings however these you can get via http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.jsp?...=pg&tl=support
select region then PHONE SETUP.

Finalization = Completing flashing operations and storing basic settings that phone needs to properly operate.

Firmware has two parts:
1. FS: Containing languages, images, sounds, animations, settings, etc. Anything that isn't pure software.
2. Main: Containing the base system software.
