Useful codes, tricks and shortcuts for your E71 Part I

Today I will share some useful shortcuts or tricks that I use with my E71.

• Let the phone read your text messages 
  A long press of the left key, at the top left, will initiate your E71 to read any unread SMS messages that might be there in your Inbox.
• One touch mute You can mute your phone by clicking the key between the up and down volume keys. Pressing the button again would unmute your conversation.
• See the time and date at any time 
  When the phone is in the locked state and the screen is blank, hit the Navi Button to display the time and date in a large font.
• Mark multiple messages or emails 
  Use the shift and Enter key to mark and unmark mails, SMS and Email messages. This shortcut also works for files in the file browser which is present in the office folder. 
  You can also use the shift and navi keys
• In Real Player 
                 Press 'fn' twice then press 2 for full screen 
                 Press and hold 'navi button up' to fast forward 
                 Press and hold 'navi button down' to rewind
• Bluetooth 
  To activate or deactivate blue tooth press and hold the * key
• Changing profiles To switch between general and silent profiles press and hold the # key
• Access browser 
  To access the browser from anywhere in the menu press and hold the 0 key
• Dial 1-800 ANYTHING 
  If you want to dial a 1-800 number where you know only the alphabets of the 1-800 number here is a trick for you dial it easily. 
  Dial 1800, hit Fn, then Shift twice, type the alphabets, and press the Call/Green key to dial. The number will be dialed. Isn't that neat?
• Delete one character a time after the cursor 
  To delete one character at a time after the cursor press the shit and the backspace button.
• Select the text input option 
  Messaging, press Fn (most left bottom button) + Spacebar = gives input option such as turn on/off predictive text, settings, writing language, input method.
