10 Reasons Why Your Nokia is Running Slow and How to Fix it

Have you ever felt slow performance of your nokia cell phone? Slow running can occur in all brands of mobile phones, this is usually the first sign before the phone starts error. The phone will be hard when accessing the features or when loading the first time in turn on.  There are a lot of factors (reasons) why your nokia phone running slow. The first is a bad file management, many files are saved, too often install and remove a few of applications, which must all relate to the logic unit, what is it?

Logic Unit consists of RAM (Random Access Memory), ROM (Read Only Memory) to the CPU (Central processing units). Just like computers, mobile phones depending on the performance of these components. Slow cell phone more often experienced by mobile phones that use open systems. But there is also a closed-system device having the same problem.

How do you prevent and fix a slow nokia phone?  There are some things that should be done, among others:

1. Your external memory (memory card) can also cause slowness in performance if it is full or if it has become corrupt.  If your phone has an external memory slot, as much as possible not to use too large memory capacity. Indeed we want to buy an external memory to the max even though its use is not up to half. Unfortunately if a large memory is only in use to store files that are not important. So you have to think to adjust to the needs. Remove unnecessary media files and free up the memory.

2. You must manage the files on the phone. Match your existing files into folders created according to the type. For example, music files in the folder "music", photos or pictures in the folder "images" and so on.

3. If you frequently use your nokia phone for browsing the Internet, delete regularly  the cache files and cookies. A cookie is data which is made by the web server and stored in phone memory for later use again at any time.  Example: if you visit a website and then logging on. A few days later you return to these website again  and it was still in a state logged in, this generally caused the cookie files are stored in your web browser or mobile phone. Actually the cache files are also beneficial, because when you're on will open the same page in the future and for its existing cache and stored by the browser, then the same data will be read more quickly, and will load faster as well.  Unfortunately, the cache files and cookies on the phone will be saved in phone memory which has a limited capacity. So that over time will make the phone's performance to be slow.  How to remove it? You can visit your phone's browser, then select the advanced menu, then search for "clear cache" or "delete cookies".

4. You must change the log file storage time as short as possible, such as 1 day. The log file is that stores data records in and out of telephone communication. This method is a little bit hurt because you can not track communications activity.

5. If not needed, disable the security lock code on your cell phone. Because of these features greatly reduce the phone's memory.

6. Viruses are one thing that can significantly hamper the performance of your Nokia Smartphones. Make certain you have got the latest anti-virus installed. Remove the files after using a virus scan option and your device should speed up quickly.

7. For users of Symbian phones (Nokia 3650, 3660, 6600, 6630, 3230, 7610, Series N, and Series E) get rid of bad habits such as pressing the red phone button to exit the feature being used. Because of these features will remain active, try to press the menu button a bit longer just seen the menu what features are still active. Well if you've seen what features are still active, to get out of the feature press the "C".

8.  Nothing wrong if you restart (power off and on again) your phone 2 or 3 times a day. The purpose of doing this is for your nokia phone remains fresh.

9.  If the phone you already seem slow, try to remove the memory card. Then turn on your cell phone without the memory card. If performance is not having problems, it means that your memory card must be in format. But you should back up important data on the card because everything will be erased. For users of Symbian mobile phone, try to format the memory card first, then format phone memory and try again another memory card format. Tips to format phone memory can by pressing * # 7370 # (for symbian old version) and or turn off your phone at the same time press * 03 and then switch on the phone simultaneously.

10. Leave space on your memory card with at least 20 percent of total capacity. If it is full, move those       files on your computer or another phone.               

In addition check again your battery phone. Finally, do you have any solutions to fix the phone that running slow? Feel free to comment bellow.

Nokia Symbian^3 Operating System- Main Applications and Features

The new Symbian^3 or named Symbian 3 OS upgrade is coming out excellent  features-wise.  So Let me share the big improvements that’s coming with this Symbian^3 release. I hope it can make  a great source discussion until waiting the upcoming release of Symbian^4 in 2011. This is the symbian we have all been waiting for.

Showcased perfectly on the stunning handsetthat is the Nokia N8, Symbian^3 marks the second open version of the symbian platform. It builds on the solid foundation created by an earlier Symbian version. 
Data performance lies at the heart od Symbian^3, as does HDMI support for exquisite TV playback  (N8 and E7 only)- an essential feature in an increasingly HD-focused world. Completed in September 2010, Symbian^3 promise to deliver us an unparalleled experience. Whenever you have loved Symbian up until now, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

More than 250 new features are on offer, including:
  1. The ability to personalize multiple home screens.The widget manager creates discovery and download of new widgets simple and support for multiple instances of a native widget means that userrs can monitor multiple weather forecasts, news feeds, social networking accounts or multiple email accounts simultaneously through a common interface. There are six slots on each screen, so you can have up to 18 widgets on the phone running simultaneously.  Overall, the homescreens are an improvement over the S60 version.
  2. Connection to up to 10 email accounts.
  3. Ease of navigation, with multiple touch functionality, allowing you to swipe, scroll,pinch, zoom, and tap to open, the apps, that matter you.
  4. HDMI to enable you to showcase your snaps and videos on the big screen. HDMI support enables users to plug their phone into a TV and watch a high-definition movie at 1080p quality without a Blu-ray player. 
  5. Enhanced multitasking facilities thanks to better memory management. More efficient memory management due to Writeable Data Paging allows more applications to run in parallel for a faster.
  6. Intelligent network management that puts the performance where you need it most.
  7. Ability to run across-platform apps based on the Qt development environment.
  8. Updated design of the music player.
  9. Better use of RAM – see above. Again this is a mere correction of mistakes.
I am most excited about Symbian 3’s 4G-readiness.  I think a lot of effort has been put in the Symbian^3 to optimize the code and its work speed.  You can compared to the fifth edition of Symbian the S60 platform, everything appears several times faster, which is a great advantage. In addition,  I am always waiting Symbian^4 in this year.

Advanced multimedia and web experiences based on touch and sensor-focused technology, imaging and video enhancements and beefed-up displays and memory management are just someof the items on a long list of desirable features. 

In facts, there are many features that millions of mobile devices, and their users, are adventaging from. Symbian S60 is so popular that it’s in the elite list of the most used smartphone platforms in the world. That’s no mean feat. 

For your information, there are 4 editions of Symbain S60 in the range: the original release, the 2nd edition, third edition, and the final edition (the fifth).  The last edition of Symbian S60 5th comes with touch sensor toolkit was released a few month ago  along with the Nokia 5800, better known as the Tube. Although the fifth edition might well be the last, things are ending on a high. The future is surely looking bright for S60 on Symbian, since it became part of Symbian Foundation in 2009.
