It's getting on my nerves, badly :/ This, and the fact that the battery-indicator seems to be working only when you restart the phone and the random hard resets when disconnecting from an ad-hoc network, has left me in slight regret over buying the whole thing :( Anyone else found this problem that when you try moving icons/shortcuts for installed applications out in the main menu, they just randomly reset and go back into the installations-folder?

Wed, 22 Nov 2006 09:23:59 +0000 http://www.e-series.org/archives/77#comment-5316 Shortcuts is a start, quick use requires seamless data exchange (through clipboard ) between applications. Earlier I had a Nokia Communicator. It allowed me to copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) texts, calendar items and more. It was a breeze to copy text from one application to another. In Series 60 version 3 this does not work, not even in Nokia E 70 with a QWERTY-keyboard and newest firmware! Usability stalls :-( Why is it so difficult to enable copy/paste between applications? Is S60 ver. 3 a Thumb-Only Platform? Is there a fix available somewhere?

The e60 does this quite well, at least for German names. Press the dictaphone key, speak the full name of contact to be called, check that the e60 recognized the name correctly and just wait for the phone to start dialing. This also works for several built-in features such as profile selection. Regards > “click contacts (wait) >>> press “c”, press “h”

In addition to the list of changes reported on Symbian-Freak, I have also found that the menu shortcuts have changed. The previous layout was not the most intuitive. The new layout follows the logic and layout of the numeric keyboard. However, you now have to press the Blue Function key and the number in order to access the files and application.

If you define a default for voice call, then you make a voice call to the contact with many numbers by simply pressing the calling key (green one). Defaults can be set from Phonebook, by opening a contact and selecting defaults from Options menu. Brad,

“- single-click dial (voice, not video) for the contact”

Annoying. Ryan,

I would think it is more logical to heve the * representing the upper-right icon, and the 4 representing the left-icon of the second row. (Just as the keyboard-layout).
