Nokia S60的基本使用方法和问题

symbian

所谓S60,其实是Symbian 6.0/7.0的缩写, 但没有S70, 只有S40, S60, S80, S90等, 更多资料请上网查询,Symbian是一种手机作业系统,就好像我们使用的Windows XP,Apple OSX等分类,分别在于前者是属于手机作业系统,后者是属于电脑作业系统,当然,现在我们也有Linux、Window Mobile、iPhone 的OSX等等手机软件作业系统,但这篇只分析S60 3rd edition的使用方法和问题还有基本功能介绍。

S60现在有分为2nd edition和3rd Edition, 几乎所有N70/71以上的型号都是3rd edition了, 当然, 软件版本不同, 可以提升的版本也不同, 有人尝试把N73的软件版本升级到N80的版本, 但最终开不到机. 所以在购买这类手机前, 最好到各个论坛爬文了解情况和规格再打算要不要买, 当今最受欢迎的S60手机除了超贵的N95以外, 接下来应该是N73了, 虽然现在有超薄的N76和E65, 但受欢迎程度还不如N73和前辈N70呢!

BAD PHONE很多人在买了Nokia S60的手机后,因为不懂得如何去好好运用这类智慧型手机的方法,最后埋怨这类手机很会”hang“(当机)、lag(慢)等等问题,最终用不到几个星期就说: “不好用~!”,然后拿去trade-in或卖了。其实只要正确的使用,和懂得一些基本常识,这类智慧型手机是真的很好用的。

别误会我,我并不是说不会使用这类智慧型手机的用户就是智商有问题(虽然它称为智慧型手机Smart Phone),因为每个人的需求和使用方式都不同,我这里写的,只能提供你作一个参考,适合你与否因人而异,Nokia并没有给我任何宣传费用,纯粹是我个人对S60的兴趣而写,这里我还是说那句:

按你的需要选择一个适合你的手机,好过你一直去换一个你无法适应的手机。

我使用S60手机已经很多年了,自始祖Nokia 7650诞生以来,到至今的S60 3rd Edition手机型号,我都未曾停止去研究和使用,在MML的论坛那里我已经是”资深会员“,也算是老手了(现在不活跃了),所以我个人认为我在这里提供的资料还算是值得新手去参考的。

当然其间我尝试过换其它品牌的智慧型手机,如Sony Ericsson、Window Mobile Pocket PC或Moto等等,也深深被酷酷的iPhone吸引,但我始终还是得要承认,Nokia的手机设计是最具人性化和user friendly的,虽然现在市场上很多品牌,但各位在使用S60手机的朋友和高手们都知道,我们手上握着的S60手机始终还是我们的最爱,其可以完全自定的功能、软件、外观、界面,很多其它品牌暂时是达不到的。(不过以上这些使用经历还真的需要花上一笔钱!唉~真是败金啊!)

好了,对Nokia的马屁就不多”拍“了,现在我要一一的分析与介绍Nokia S60的功能:

如果你是一个Nokia S60的新手,相信你一开始一定有很多疑问和对S60的不满,如:

Fight with TM - Part 2

tm nut down pic 7

As I promise in my previous post, this morning i brought my “super good” DB102 Modem to their so called “Customer Service Centre” to ask for replacement.

After I told them my problem and how many days i wait and no one come to fix this bla bla bla…the agent there act really cool and steady, drop me a paper ask me write down the user id, contact number etc and she leave her desk and go to print something else, I’m not sure what is that.

Then after 3 minutes we have these conversation (She is aunty):

Agent D : “I have made a report for you regarding your modem….” (Report again??!) “…Our technician will goto your house to check the modem, if there is a problem with your modem they will replace for you” (Soft and steady voice)

Henry : “Ok but look, i have wait for more than 7 days regarding this issue, and i never receive any call from your technician…”[Talk softly, volume level 2] (I haven’t finish explain…then she start answer)

Agent D : “Ya, but in your previous report it is frequently disconnection problem, not modem problem, this is different case” (Great~what about the remark regarding the modem problem?)

Henry : “But they said they did put a remark regarding the modem inside the previous report..” [low tune, volume level 2]

Agent D : “Who?” (What the…you asked me who? Am I a customer?)

Henry : “Other agent who follow up my report..”[mid tune, volume level 4] (Do i have to answer this stupid question?)

Agent D : “The report only said they did check your hub and port everything is ok, regarding your modem you have to create another report” (!(#@*(#!~ great, I’m in the hole asking for help)

Henry : “Alright, but how long it take to fix this?”[mid tune, volume 6]

Agent D : “We are not sure sir, this is depend on technician schedule and how they arrange it, you just wait and they call you” (Great~ friday is public holiday~! It means that I’m going to wait for the whole weekend?)

Henry : “But i brought my modem here, can you just check this and if there is a problem with the modem, then replace it here?” (Does this make sense? If house phone got problem, they also ask customer bring the phone to their outlet to do a replacement right?)

Agent D : “No sir, this is not a technical centre, and you have to follow the procedure” (Ya, if hospital also like this, anyone who are injury when enter emergency room will surely die)

Henry : “………………………….” [silent] (Inside like volcano :evil: :oops: )

I took the new report number, and i leave with my “Bao Qing Tian” face

I didn’t quarrel with them, it is not I don’t dare, coz I know it is useless, somehow I’m Christian, I don’t want to shame my God’s name.

I’m standing outside and watch their sign board (not the picture above, that one took inside the car), I look around their advertisement “We are improving everyday!”.. but inside me there are thousand of “!(@*!” words blow into my brain. (I felt like the camera is surrounding me turning 360 degree with those rock and hopeless music playing…drama king huh?)

I go back to my car, I calm down and comfort myself “What’s the big deal? Wait lo~ what to do? This is our country, use other ISP provider lo~ use those Edge, 3G or 3.5G lo~ but you should know their coverage area not everywhere la, and speed are not that fast enough too~

So how? You have no choice, they are the only, face it you dumb dumb!”

Today is wednesday, tomorrow is thursday, friday no one is working coz public holiday, if until tomorrow still no one call me or come to fix this, I’m going to buy myself a new modem, and their free replacement modem just put a side next time, may be I’m going to smash it hardly!)

Thanks to TM, thanks all staffs out there, you guys are improving everyday, I can see that, can you?

tm nut down picture no1

Today is the day no.7 that my house broadband connection down, and guess what?
No one come to fix it within these 7 days…what’s new? (This is not a 1st time anyway…)

tm nut down pic no2

They said they will assigned a technician come to check and fix it, but more than 2 days after my 1st complaint and I never receive any call from them, so I called back to check the status…

Friday 24th August, 2nd conversation:

“Choose your language, press 1 bla bla bla, press 2 bla bla bla…” ok, steps i aways used, press 2, then 2, then 3.
Agent A: “Hello, this is XXX, TM Nut customer service, may i help you?”
Henry : “Hi, my name is Henry, I have a report number…635xxxx”
Agent A: “Ok, a moment please” ( Start play some music for me, 2 minutes later)
Agent A: “Hi Mr.Henry, ok, i have refer to your report, you have a problem regarding this frequently disconnection and modem problem….bla bla bla…”
Henry : “Ya, i just want to know how’s the status now, did TM send a technician to check the hub? And how come no one call me to come to my house to check the modem?” (Talk gentlemanly and softly)
Agent A: “Sir, the status showing it still under process, it take 2 working days to proceed” (Ya, it is more than 2 working days already)
Henry : “Ya, but today is more than 2 working days…” (A bit impatient)
Agent A: “I see, ok sir, there might be some technical issue, but can you try to call back by monday if you still not receive any call?”
Henry : “Ok, however, i just want to make sure, is my contact number correct in the report? Can you read that for me?”
Agent A : “Sure, a moment please….ok, your contact number is 016-890-6891, is this correct?”
Henry : “No~ is 016-890-8691, can you correct the number and update for me immediately please?” (I wonder is that a reason why i didn’t receive any call from their technician”
Agent A : “Sure no problem sir, ok, just to verify, is 016-890…..” (Ya ya ya…)
Agent A : “Ok Sir, i have put a remark there and correct the number”
Henry : “Ok, that’s great, really appreciate.”
Agent A : “Ok sir, is there anything i can help for you?” (Ya! A lot honestly!)
Henry : “No, that’s so..”
Agent A : “Ok sir, thanks for calling TM”

By monday, i checked the modem, the data and link light are still blinkig and the PC/LAN light still off….so i called the service center again…

Monday 27th August, 3rd conversation:

Repeat those 3 steps.
Agent B : “Hello, this is xxxxxxx, TM Nut customer service…”
Henry : “Hi, my name is Henry, I have a report number…635xxxx”
Agent B: “Ok, a moment please” (What’s new? Play music again…)
Agent B: “Hi, Mr.Henry right? I have refer to your report, you have a problem regarding this frequently disconnection and modem problem….bla bla bla…”
Henry : “Yes…i want to know, when the technician will come to my house to fix the modem?” (A bit impatient)
Agent B : “Sir, it still under process…”
Henry : “Still under process? How long i have to wait for this? It is more than 4 working days, and i still not receive any call from TM? Your staff said it should be take 2-3 working days to proceed!”
Agent B : “Ok Sir, I checked your report, it say you have a frequently disconnection and modem problem, have you do all the direct connection testing…bla bla bla…”
Henry : “Yes, i have done all those steps, included using different LAN cable, unplug router, direct connect, reset modem…bla bla bla…i just cannot access to my modem setting, and the PC/LAN light still off, DATA and Link lights still blinking!”
Agent B : “Oh..i see, ok, if that’s the case, i will reset your port and can you try again, if problem still the same, can you please call back later?” (Oh~~ not again….)
Henry : “Ok, i will do that, but can you please read for me regarding my contact number in that report?” (I wonder did they update the number or not)
Agent B : “Sure no problem sir, a moment please….ok, the number is 016-890-6891…”(*&!*@!! STILL THE SAME?!?)
Henry : “OH~STILL 6891??! I have requested to correct this number to 016-8908691 last week, not 6891! Can you please correct it for me immediately?” (Really impatient voice)
Agent B : “Ok Sir, once again, the number is…bla bla bla…”
Henry : “Yes, please”
Agent B : “Ok Sir, the number is updated now”
Henry : “Alright, appreciate.”
Agent B : “Ok Mr.Henry, is there anything else i can do for you?”
Henry : “No, that’s so..”
Agent B : “Ok Sir, thanks for calling TM…”

After hang up, i wait for 2 hours, and reset the modem, switch on, the problem still the same, DATA and LINK lights still blinking and PC/LAN light still off. So i called back again.

Monday 27th August, 4th conversation:
Repeat those 3 steps again
Agent C : “Hello, thanks for calling TM, this is xxx, is there anything i can help you?”
Same, i gave a report number, hey put me on hold to check the report, and music again.
Agent C : “Hi Mr.Henry right? I read your report, it is regarding…bla bla bla…”
Same, i told them i have do what they asked me to, and told the the same issue, same result.
Agent C : “I see sir, the report status is showing we have assigned the technician to check the hub and modem, it might take 2-3 working days to proceed…” (This time i really pissed off and shout!)
Henry : “Another 2-3 working days? I already wait more than 4 working days, and no one call me from TM, when this going to be fix? How many days i have to wait?!?” (Very impatient and loud)
Agent C : “Sorry Sir, but it is beyond what we can control, there might be lots of reason out there, and we cannot tell you the actual timeline.” (Shit, now they said cannot tell me the actual timeline, great~)
Henry : “But can you put a remark say that this is high-priority? Because i have wait more than 4 working days, i really need this to be fix asap, otherwise how im going to work from home? This really bring trouble to me, please, can you put a remark for this?”
Agent C : “Ok Sir, i have put that remark for you.”
Henry : “And can you please read the contact number for me? I want to make sure the contact number is correct, as i have requested to update the contact number from my previous called.”
Agent C : “No problem sir, the number is 016-8906891…” ( :mad: I felt like want to throw the phone away~!)
Henry : “NO~How many time i’m going to repeat this? How come your staff never update it? It is 016-8908691 not 6891! Can you please please please change it immediately? PLEASE~~~~” (Really wanna cry)

tm nut down pic4
GUESS WHAT? NO ONE GOING TO ANSWER AND I LISTEN THE MUSIC MORE THAN 5 MINUTES!!! AND IT AUTOMATICALLY HANG UP/DISCONNECT!

For sure, I will never give up to call after they hang up, and do the same steps, this time i asked for their reference number and name 1st, and i told them the previous agent hang up my phone like that, i want to make sure this time it won’t happen, and i want to make sure the contact number is updated, and to make sure the remarks they put inside the report are all correct, although they still told me it is under progress, and wait!

I know beside waiting i cannot do anything about this, even i asked them can i bring the modem to the outlet to ask for replacement? One of them said yes, but another say no, who should i listen to then? However, after today if no one call me, tomorrow i will goto TM center and quarrel with them!

Great, “We are improving everyday!” I can see that, can you?

(* I wrote this in english coz i want all of you out there can read this, even you are someone high-profile, last time i wait for more than 3 weeks, then the technician come, and Im paying RM77 per month for such service)

Nokia S60 Themes

n73
上个星期刚刚把我的小白N70拿去“当”了,换来这个拍照强劲的N73,起初发现它不支持A2DP有点犹豫,后来发现原来只要更新软体就可以了,最新的V4版支持A2DP了,什么是A2DP?一个支持bluetooth立体耳机的bluetooth软体版本。那些如果无法更新到V4版本的朋友,上网找找看吧,只要能更改product code就可以瞒过Nokia Software Update就可以update到V4版本了。

为这位新成员灌输很多实用的软件后,也为它穿上美美的theme,还自己制造了几个theme,感觉还好。
你如果要自制theme,可以到:http://www.ownskin.com/ ,最新版本可以加入自己喜欢的icons和更多功能了。

以下是个人比较喜欢的Theme,有些当然不是我要使用的,只是觉得有些很适合女生,可能会有你喜欢的:

yellow watch - bought by Alvin

uploaded by mobile

家里的tm net down, 现在睡不着,只好用手机写部落格,很曳吧?哈哈,以前偶而会玩玩,已经很久没用手机写部落格了。可是还是用电脑比较好,用手机的按扭输入中文字很慢。

下午去找Alvin,他刚去新加坡回来,叫他帮我买手表,看到这黄色手表时,我也不知该怎么反应,不是不喜欢啦,只是没想过会戴黄色的手表,其实还好啦alvin,我没有不喜欢,只是一时反应不过来罢了,放心,你都不收$我哪里敢“hyam”le?
谢谢咯
