FExplorer Tips & Tricks
* How to reset the operator logo :
1) go to the following dir :
c:\system\apps\phone\oplogo
2) delete any file in this directory
3) restart the phone
* to make a screenshot on a Nokia 3650, 6600 :
1) use the pencil key + '0'
* to make a screenshot on a SX1 :
1) use the shift key + '0'
* remember, there are some shortcuts :

* 'send command' fails new firmware
with some new firmware, some users have reported that the 'send command' (thru bluetooth, IR, ...) fails; it's due to a 'copyrigth protection' introduced in the new OS (!!!!), this happens only with some kind of files (eg: .SIS), in such case, simply rename the file (eg: wtih .SIS_ ) before trying to send them.
Cant Uninstall Applications via Manager?
When you cant uninstall an application(most of the time Java games) using the Manager function of the phone, then do this;
1. Install FExplorer.
2. Launch it and goto the path/folder of the Application. I'm assuming you have install it to the MMC so the path would be something like,
E:\system\apps
and you will see lots of folders in there that is only labelled by numbers(for Java games/apps) or the name of the application. Go though them one by one. Open the text file in that folder to exactly know the name of the application in that particular folder if you dont see any icons or familiar name.
3. Then if its the correct folder, "move-out" of the folder, click on Options>File>Delete.
4. Then goto the Manager to uninstall it if its still listed.
5. Reboot.
