- Start spying
If you short-circuit the right, left and middle pins situated
below your Nokia phone with all the pins connected, the
Nokia software hangs. The profile Headset gets activated
prior to which automatic answer in the headset profile needs
to be activated along with the volume level set to mute.
To spy, the phone can be kept in a room or somewhere else
and the user gets to know what others in the room are talking
about when he calls on the phone. The phone itself answers
the call.....It does not possess any magical power though....

- The Cabir Virus
Ever Heard of a virus called Cabir or Caribe??
In November 2004 certain websites provided transfer tools
for mobile ringtones, pictures and videos for series 60
phones. Many users downloaded these softwares not knowing
that the phones were getting affected by virus which was
rather deadly, named Cabir, a worm. This when installed
tries to send its own components to any bluetooth device
in range. This Virus forces the battery life to shorten
because the Bluetooth Cannot be switched off.
To prevent Cabir virus, keep Bluetooth profile 'Hidden',
in case the cabir message file is received (caribe.sis),
try aborting the installation, if the virus has entered
the phone, install the following software in the phone www.f-secure.com/tools/f-cabir.sis
which will then search and destroy the virus components.
- Mp3 Stereo or no.....
If someone asks you whether your phone has mp3 stereo
or no, you would probably say yes. But think again!! Your
phone might just have MP3 playback and not MP3 stereo. MP3
Stereo upgrades the sound quality to a great extent. As
of now the only phones which have the MP3 stereo are Nokia
6230/ 6230i, 6681/ 6680, The N Series and Nokia 7710. So
beware before purchasing you mp3 phone...
