For N70 and possibly s60 3rd Edition:

1.hold 0 (zero) key to open web browser at home page
2. addition to 2 key to toggle fullscreen, any key will work to cancel fullscreen
3. In camera, left dpad for image setup
4. hold multimedia key for radio (music edition, probably others as well when multimedia assigned to a multimedia)

For e61/i (actually: ALL phones with qwerty key-pad!!!) and operamini: you can give your "joy"-stick a rest... You can use operamini just with your keys!!! Try it - exact button-configuration varies from model to model, but start with p and q instead of softkeys, scroll up and down with number keys etc etc... That's btw the official om version! On non-qwerty's only the hack allows to browse using keys! [addsig]

trick to create sub-folders in S60 phones. this will be a feature of Feature Pack 2, however we can create them in older S60 versions (2nd Ed/3rd Ed). To do this follow the instructions below:

1. Create a new folder and call it whatever you want your sub-folder to be.

2. Move this folder to be in position 1 (top left of the main menu)

3. Place an app in position 5 (the default position for when you open up the menu)

4. highlight the app in position 5 and then press options (so that you can see the option to "Move to folder" ).

5. Now with the option menu open, press the power key and select "Offline". You'll notice that the menu is still open, and that the folder you created is highlighted in the top left of the screen.

6. Now select "Move to folder" and select which folder you want to contain your sub-folder.

For example you can now have folders within Media for Videos, Music etc and organise your apps much better!
