Every Nseries users and all mobile phone users will have the same problem. The battery dried up pretty fast. My N73ME only can last long for about one to one and half days only. This is because I always use the video call before I go to bed.
But if you are a normal user, you can save and extend your Nseries battery life more longer.
1. Turn off bluetooth - How many of you turn on the bluetooth all the time? Bluetooth uses power to run. If you are not using the bluetooth, it is better to turn it off to save the battery.
2. No Games - Although our Nseries phone is a smartphone but I think it is not necessary to use it for playing games. Unless if you are a hardcore gamer that love playing mobile games from your mobile phone.
3. Low the Brightness - I set my display brightness to medium. Don’t set your brightness display to high because it will consume more power usage. And don’t set it to low or you will threaten your eyes.

Hi all… It has been long time since my last post in here. Been busy all the time and have no idea on what to update on this blog. So today, for this entry, I would like to share with you a tip on how to avoid your NSeries from hang.
My girlfriend just bought her new Nokia phone and claimed that her new Nokia 6500 always hang. I asked her whether she using wallpaper on her phone or not. She said yes and stored the wallpaper image in the memory card. Then, I told her to move the image to phone memory. Since then, her phone does not hang anymore.
So, the question is, why you should put wallpaper image into phone memory? Well, hen you put the image that you want to set as wallpaper into the memory card, the phone will try to retrieve the image from the memory card when each time you go to the front screen. This process takes time because the phone had to retrive the file from external storage (memory card). This will slow down your phone and will make it become hang.
So to avoid your NSeries from hang, you need to put the wallpaper image into the phone memory (internal storage). By doing so, your NSeries will load the image more faster and this will reduce the possibilities of the phone to become hang.
If your NSeries phone always got hang, then you must move the wallpaper image into phone memory instead of stored in into the memory card. But, if your phone is still got hang after using this tip, then need to investigate what are the faulties. Probably, your phone has less free RAM.
Our Nseries phone has its own memory storage where we can save and keep our data on it. To have more storage, we add another additional storage or we called it as memory card.
Everytime when we save and delete files from the memory card, the files will become fragmented. So we need to defrag our it so it can performs better.
Here is how to do it.
-
Connect your Nseries phone to your PC (cable, infrared, bluetooth) and select Mass Storagemode.
-
Backup all your files including files in your memory card.
-
Now, go to My Computer and you will see a new drive in it. Right click the drive and choose Properties. Then click on Tools tab and Defragment Now.
-
Wait until the defragment process finish and then you will see how fast your Nokia phone will be.
ps: My phone becomes faster since I defrag it. Try it and make your phone feels fresh.
It is really recommend updating your Nokia firmware to the latest version. Each new firmware usually contains bug fixes, new applications, make your Nokia runs faster, and many more.
Check for latest firmware version
- To check whether you are using the latest firmware, you need to enter *#0000# from the keypad.
- Then it will display what version you are using and the release date of the firmware. Eg: 4.0736.3.2.1
- Open up the back case and pull out the battery. We are looking for product code that we need to check for latest firmware. You will see the product code on the white label sticker on it. Eg: 0539343. Note it down.
