Posted by admin in Tips and Tricks, Tutorial on June 25, 2010
Recently I have been asked how to replace the home screen shortcuts, so i wrote the following post which provides some information about customization of the E72 home screen.
The E72 home screen consists of 2 types of shortcuts:
- Applications shortcuts - 6 shortcuts for running application straight from the home screen.
- Home screen applications - Interactive application that provide information on the home screen.
Application Shortcuts
Menu-> Ctrl. panel-> Settings->General-> Personalization ->Standby mode-> Mode settings-> Application Shortcuts.
Here you can enable/disable the applications shortcuts or replacing the applications.
It’s also possible to use web site address as application shortcut.

Posted by MyNokiaE72 in Tips and Tricks on May 7, 2010
You are invited to vote on the following poll, as always comments are welcomed
UPDATE
For those who asked how to use the feature, first of all make sure that the feature is enabled.
Menu-> Ctrl. panel-> Settings ->General -> Sensors-> Turning Control. Make sure that Silence Calls and Snoozing alarms are marked.
When the phone starts to ring on incoming call, flip the phone face down and wait few seconds. it takes some times until the phone’s ringer turns to silence mode.
The feature can also be used the same way when using alarm and you would like to snooze.

Network Destinations
Posted by MyNokiaE72 in Tips and Tricks on March 21, 2010
Nokia E72 has an additional tab for “Network Destinations”. The network destinations provides the ability to organize the network connections under specific destinations. The connections includes all data connections: WiFi and 3g networks.
The configuration of the network destination can be found under the following menus: Menu -> Ctrl. Panel-> Settings-> Connection -> Destinations.
By default following destinations exist: Access Point, Internet, Multimedia msg., WAP services, Intranet, Uncategorized. New connections are added by default to the Uncategorized destination.
You might ask what the point of using this other then having the network connections organized?
Some of the applications network configuration works only with netowrk destination, it’s not possible to select specific connection. Nokia email’s client and Nokia’s internet browser are using this type of configuration. When adding new configuration pay attention to categorize it under the right destination so you’ll be able to use the application.

I was quite surprised (like anyone who used to have Nokia E71) to find that the Nokia E72 doesn’t include Nokia Internet Radio. Nokia Fanboy just dropped me a comment that solution can be found on his web site. The original post can be found in Symbain-Guru.
Thank you
