How to update a Nokia Mobile Phone
Nokia has created a great software that makes it really easy to update your Nokia mobile phone. You are probably wondering why you should update the phone if everything is working as intended. This is actually a good question and I can’t answer it for the phone that you are using.

Reading books using a mobile phone is probably not the most pleasant way but it surely is better than sitting around doing nothing at all.

Downgrading iPhone Firmware
I see a lot of parallels between Apple’s iPhone and Sony’s PSP. Both add new firmwares like crazy to their devices in an effort to keep device hackers at bay. Apple recently upgraded the iPhone’s firmware to version 1.1.1 which made many modified iPhones inoperable.

Reduce Mobile Phone SMS and Call Costs
What would you say if there is an easy way to reduce mobile phone SMS and call costs ? I’m using a service called Cellity for some time now and was able to reduce my mobile phone bill tremendously. I do write the occasional SMS which usually costs between €0.10 to €0.20 per SMS. Cellity reduces this to the cost of the data transfer rate of the SMS which is just a few Kilobytes the most.

Unlimited means no restrictions
That is at least the definition by us common folks who are happy to get an unlimited plan – be it Internet or mobile phone – only to find out that the fine prints are detailing lots of exclusions that turn the advertised unlimited plan into a limited one. I’m not a marketing expert nor a lawyer but this does look fishy to me.

Free Ringtones for your iPhone
Paying $0.99 for a single Ringtone is way to much especially if you already bought the song from iTunes or have it available on CD or as mp3.The funny thing is that Apple introduced a new format for ringtones with the extension .m4r which is simply a renamed .aac file which are the files that you download when you make a purchase at iTunes.

How to reduce mobile phone bandwidth costs
Reducing the bandwidth costs of my mobile phone is one of my top priorities in this month. You might remember that I used my Nokia N73 as a modem to go online during my summer vacation which did cost me more than $400 for just a few hours of going online and writing articles. It was quite a shock that I was charged this much because I did ask O2 support how much it would cost me and they gave me a different answer at that time.

Nokia recalling more than 46 million batteries
It seems to become common for electronic companies that produces items with batteries to recall batteries with a manufacturing defect that could lead to mobile phone explosions under certain circumstances. I was concerned that my new phone, the Nokia N73 Music Edition, was one of the phones that could have a defective battery but I was lucky this time.

Scan, Fax and Copy with your mobile phone
I always thought it would be nice to put the camera that most mobile phones are equipped with to got use and have a software that would make it possible to take a picture of a document and fax or send it to someone using the same phone. I don’t have a fax because I rarely need it but I miss it dearly whenever I need it.

NOKIA N73 AND THE CASE OF THE BLINKING BLUE LIGHT
I really like my new mobile phone which is a Nokia N73 Music Edition. There is however one disturbing thing and that is a blue light that is blinking whenever my phone is activating sleep mode. Sleep mode is great because it consumes less battery when it is active but that blinking blue light is really getting on my nerves.

Get Free iPhone Ringtones from iTunes
This is probably not the best hack in life but it is still valid and working. You could use the ringtones for other mobile phones as well if you convert the m4p extension to a format that your mobile supports. The principle of grabbing song samples and use them as your iPhone ringtones is pretty simple.
