Free Voice Chat for your Nokia 3110c : Palringo

Do you really want to chat through your mobile, here's the solution for you
"PALRINGO"

Palringo is an multi-instant messenger just like ebuddy and nimbuzz. But the most important advantage of palringo is it allows voice chat.

This voice chat can be done through all java enabled phone.
Here are some points about voice chat using palringo :-

• It is just like push to talk(ptt) and not like voice calling. Only one way communication is possible at a time.
• The software use advanced voice compression system, but it is upto your network speed for time delay of messages.
• Both the user must have palringo installed on their phone and should be on each others contacts.
• Voice clarity is much better.

DOWNLOADING PALRINGO (for java only)
For downloading palringo just point your phone browser to palringo.mobi
OR
You can also download from the above url using your desktop
FOR NOKIA  3110C USERS
By default, we cannot find palringo for our phone.
But don't worry. Just download any java version(J2ME), it will work.
The only problem we will encounter is visibility of text chats.
But the voice chat does not have any problem.

• Wait for your modem to get installed on your computer.
• Enjoy the net.

If you have any questions just leave it as a comment .

Connecting Nokia 3110c using Bluetooth

Error : Cannot Install Java Applications/games using pc suite

Like me you have also encountered problem while installing applications using pc suite saying the phone is being used or busy.
I haven't found any solution for this but I can advice you to get the application installed most of times.
As you connect your phone via pc suite / ovi suite synchronization starts. Its a background process and we don't notice it. We cannot install application during this period. Wait for this to get over. Synchronization details will be displayed on your phone screen when it is complete.

Also, if you have just switch on-ed your device wait for sometime. There are many background process going on mainly music library updating.

Getting or sending application or game from a Nokia Phone

Sending application from a Nokia 3110c is impossible( At least for me' if you disagree please comment the way)
While getting it from a another bluetooth paired phone is possible . Here is the way

• Turn ON bluetooth on both the devices
• Open a Bluetooth file exploring software from reciepents side ( I recommend Blue File Transfer v1.36 For Nokia 3110c )
• Get the jar file from the senders application location (As you will have full access over his phone using this software )
   

But Sometimes this won't work. It will say, "Invalid Application"

Installing applications and games in Nokia 3110c

This post is about installation of java based mobile phone application on Nokia 3110c.
First of all it depends on where the source file is. Thus application installation can be classified into two groups 

• Getting Software from other phone
  
  
  
  • This will be very hard if the sender is a Nokia phone. The Nokia phones does not support sending of application. This may be to prevent duplication of copyrighted files. But there is always "the other way". Click here to know how to get an application from a nokia phone.
  •  If the sender is not a Nokia Phone, just spot the jar file (Not the installed file, send the installation file. Hope you Know the differences) and send via bluetooth or infrared.
• Getting  Software from computer
  
  
  • Using PC Suite : Either spot your .jar file and open it with pc suite. Easy isn't it. It is not . Sometimes problem ma y cause in this type saying phone is being used. Click here to know more about this error.
  • Using Mass Storage / Data transfer Mode : Copy the .jar file to your memory card. Unplug the data cable and run the application from the phone.
  • Using Bluetooth : Connect phone via bluetooth. Right click the .jar file and click send to > Bluetooth. Problems using Bluetooth Connection-Click here

UCWEB - Why different version based on countries ?

As you have seen while downloading the Ucweb, there are various version for various region.
The application is same but the difference is mainly on following two things.
# Languages
# Regional Preferences
                          Regional preferences means the UCweb default links will be different for entertainment, social networking, technology,etc...

Downloading UCWEB to PC

For some of those who hate to use phones default browser, I will help them with an alternate way.
Here are the download links for the jar files for intalling via pc suite or by file transfer method.
# International Version(U S)
#Indian Version

Nokia 3110c Camera

Its a very late post. I must have discussed about the camera specialties of Nokia 3110c. It has such a wonderful camera.
The Nokia 3110c is equipped with a 1.3 megapixel camera.
But the clarity i am getting from this 1.3 mp is much greater than that of other companies(Except sony ericcson)
Its successor phones by Nokia, says to provide 2 mp camera but each capturing takes much more time. Here are some photos i took which will clearly explain my points.
NB: 

• Maximum resolution(Image size) is 1280 x 1024 
• Average image file size is 300-400kb

Always keep your phone memory free

Always keep the phone memory of all the s40 Nokia phones free for easy use of your phone. Dumping data into your phone memory will cause following problems
1.Considerably and comparatively very slow switching on process.
2.Very slow phone responses even to the keystrokes
3.Failure of theme application
4.Very slow access to the gallery and memory card
5.Internet connection becomes very slow
6.Phone starts overheating.
7.Disconnection via calling
8.Failure during call
9.Unable to open music player
10.Automatic restarting.
11.Discontinous audio.
12.Unable to open application

You see how a full phone memory can effect your phone's performance.In extreme cases it will causes software failure and will cause you to loose all your contacts and messages.

After receiving files via bluetooth, smaller files get accumulated in the phones memory. It is advised to transfer them immediately to memory card.

A little hard work for studying that will  give you more benefit than you can imagine.

I think this will help you

Error:Not playing '.mp4' or mp4 video files OR Video Support Details Of Nokia 3110c

Nokia 3110c supports both 3gp and mp4 video files.
But the problem is it doesn't play the files with high bit-rate and size.

If you have a mp4 file and phone is unable to play it then it is due to this problem.
The main causes for this is

#high bit-rate and size.
#Even if the file extension is .mp4 the video codec will be some thing else.This is the cause that we cannot play the video from the youtube or any other streaming website.

Remedy for this is to convert your file to a .mp4 file with required settings or parameters
Here are the video support data

!Video codec : mpeg4(.mp4)
!Video size :176x144(higher values are not supported)
!Video Bitrate :96(or try 64)
!Video frame-rate :12(or try 15, but not above)
!Audio codec : acc,mp3
!Audio bitrate :128(phone supports more but then video and audio will not be synchronized and there will be lagging )
!Sample Rate :44100(Some times called frequency)
!Audio video syn :set 'basic' for good i/p and default for low i/p sources(Not available in all converters

Note:
If you are using nokia pc suite for converting videos then set the quality to medium in settings

I am using "Any Video Converter".get it for free

Never open front panel if you don't know..

If you got stuck in opening the front panel dont try it using a screw driver or lever.
It will only distroy the front panel clips and causes unalignment after assembling again.

Go here and study the procedure through the video.
Take this seriously..

De-Assembling : Opening Nokia 3110 classic

Errors:Unable to save configuration settings

It is often seen that in later periods our phone seems unable to save the configuration settings from the GPRS service provider.

This can be due to virus or minor software crash.

Solution to this problem is unknown to me..

But , if you have a previously backup-ed settings in ur PC you can remove this problem.
(But take a backup of ur updated 'contacts only' )

Creating personalized settings for GPRS wont change any defects..(it doesn't changed mine)

Phone body cares

Errors:Phone not recoganizing contacts

This is one of the important problem that after battery removal, contact names are not seen when we get a call or message from saved contact.

This is due to following reason :
If you have saved a copy of your contact to your sim card, after battery removal the the contact memory get changed to both phone and sim(This also occurs after restoring factory settings).Since both are having name for same no: phone gets confused and responds as unsaved contacts.

Therefore change the contact memory to phone only or sim only

Folder Hiding In Nokia 3110c

It is however not possible to completely encrypt any data on your nokia 3110c(or any other s40 series of nokia).

However you can possibly remove a folders visibility by changing the extension.

Here are the steps :
1)Get into gallery
2)Change the 'type of view' from options to grid.
3)Create a folder name starting with 'Z' so that the folder will appearing last among the folder grids.
4)Now go to rename and change the extension to filename.ota
5)Get out and see that your folder is not visible but can be accessed via navigation keys(The folder will be present at the last)


Some tips while hiding your confidential data
1)Try to create the hidden folder as interior as possible to prevent its detection.
2)Try to create a continuous visible folder list as possible.

like :
newfolder/newfolder/newfolder/newfolder/newfolder/newfolder/newfolder/newfolder/
When any one try to open the folder he will think that the set got stuck and stop pressing the open key

In any of the inner folder (not the last one) create the hidden folder...
It will be more safe...

Note:Any of this technique will help you in hiding while browsing through computer. Your file system will be completely exposed as normal......

Remove Password From microSD card for nokia 3110c OR s40 Phones

If you forgot your password and you are using Nokia 3110c phone ,you are an unlucky person. It is possible to use the memory card with the phone in which password was entered.
But we cannot use that memory card with any other phones.

We can see in net saying that "finding mmcstore file and editing", which is impossible to our phone(s40) b'cause we cannot find any explorer rightly to access our system files.

So the possible ways are
# Get to Nokia care, or any good mobile shop where they can flash your memory card.
But all your data will lost.
#Another method(untried by me)
Get any friend's Nokia s60v5 phone like Nokia 5800
Put ur memory card and donot open it.
The only thing you have to do is to activate Remote locking feature by going to Tools | Settings | Security | Phone and SIM | Allow remote lock menu. .(This allows you to lock your phone by sending lock code as sms to your s60v5 phone)(you might require code 12345(or phone code; given is default) while doing this)
Now send a message with lock code to that phone and phone will be locked.
Now password of your mmc will be changed (Take mmc without unlocking the phone and you mmc password will be lock code )
                                   Check whether it works and inform me plz
OR
unlock phone with mmc in it and try ur luck.......
