Mobile Phone Unlocking

Mobile Phone Unlocking is one of the most popular modifications that anyone has carried out to their mobile phone. So what is mobile phone unlocking?To have your mobile phone unlocked is to remove the sim lock which dedicates your phone to one network."Why would I want to unlock my phone and use this mobile phone unlocking UK service?", you may be asking, well, If you want to change network suppliers i.e. say from network X to network Y, you would have to pay network X in the region of $50 to $250 to do so, basically because they don't want you to join someone else for the obvious reason that they would lose your money!

So, what do we do? We simply un-lock the sim locks from the phone so that you can use any network you please - the way we think it should be! Please do not attempt to do unlocking without knowing what you are doing with the proper hardware and unlocking software. Many had killed of their brand new phones (especially the new 3G phones).

Unlock is simple, fast and not illegal (if it is done by professionals). In the old days, when mobile phones where the size of brief cases (only joking) the only way to unlock your mobile phone was to rig it up to a pc, try all sorts of "unlocking software" hoping that the handset wouldn't die, flash it and remove the lock. Omni Tech Limited was the most talked about and most respected mobile phone unlocking professional in Auckland, New Zealand.

Today, Omni Tech Limited can provide this service for Nokia mobile phones. Why waste your money to buy a new phone to use in New Zealand? Give us a call and we can sort you out and take away your misery!

Note: Mobile phone unlocking is not to be confused with mobile phone unblocking blacklisted. Unblocking a blacklisted handset is in fact ILLEGAL. Anyone carrying this proceedure out can face a large fine and the distinct possibility of doing porridge at the jail. A handset only becomes blocked when it has been reported stolen by the legitimate owner, or replacement unit being claimed for lost.

All that's required is for a simple form to be submitted and a nominal fee to be procured and the remote unlock procedure on almost any Nokia mobile phone can be carried out.

Besides that, Omni Tech Ltd will be able to provide unlock for the newer generations of mobile phone (please call David for free quote and information at +6498383943 or email us at info@omnitech.co.nz)

How do I increase N70 battery life?

Nokia N70 comes with BL-5C Li-Ion 970 mAh battery. It promises about 3.5 hours of talk time and nearly 11 days of stand-by time. However it is usual to hear complaints of the Nokia N70 battery not being good. Often the situation can be improved a lot if we were to identify the prime cause of power drain.

First step is to accept that the N70 is no mean machine. It houses a multi-tasking operating system, and packs several devices into one small unit. Do not compare it's needs with a normal cellphone. You are safest if you make it a habit to charge it daily when your day's work is done or while you are sleeping. This is what you would do if it were a Laptop or a PDA, and these are what are closer cousins of an N70 than the ordinary cellphone that probably has a low resolution camera and can play some polyphonic tones.

Okay, now here are the prime culprits for draining battery.

1) Talking too much!
When you are talking to your girl/boy friend, you probably end up thinking that you used up much less time than you actually did - Theory of Relativity by Einstein. If you are a sales person or spends lot of time talking to friends, get a backup battery. If a little increase in the talk time would satisfy you, try the tips that follow or get a BL-6C (1070 mAh) battery. It is a bigger battery but Nokia seems to have left just enough space under the battery hood for the BL-6C. However, be aware that it is a really tight fit and if you don't insert the battery and close the lid very carefully, you might end up spoiling the cover. It may not be a bad idea to monitor your call time at the end of calls. In case you don't get to see the call duration, go to Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Call and enable the "Summary after call" option.

2) Operating the phone in low signal areas
It takes energy to keep searching out for your provider's network. The same can happen when traveling where the reception keeps varying. Look for a better provider if feasible.

3) Keeping 3G and Bluetooth ON even when not required
You can disable 3G by Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Network and setting the Network mode to GSM instead of Dual mode. To disable Bluetooth go to Menu -> Connect. -> Bluetooth.

4) Heavy applications used frequently or kept running in the background
Heavy applications are those which use a lot of CPU power. These can include virus scanners, players (movie, music, graphics), 3D games, GPS utilities and office applications. Usage of the video camera and external speakers also drains power. A graphical-oriented theme could also have some minor contributions to depleting batery power. Since N70 allows multitasking, often you may leave multiple applications running by using the Menu key. Keeping the Menu key pressed would bring up the active tasks list. You can close unnecessary applications by moving the selection to the unwanted one and hitting the Clear (right-bottom C) key. Usage of video calls and bluetooth can result in exhausting the battery power quickly.

5) Old battery
Some suggest a full charge before first use and occassional full-draining before recharging. However, there doesn't seem to be any proof that these work.

6) Keeping the brightness level high
See if you can afford to reduce the brightness of the LCD screen and the time it remains ON, by navigating to Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Phone -> Display.

Where do I get free S60 software for my Nokia N70?

The N70 runs a Symbian Series 60 v2 Feature Pack 3 Operating System.

Most of the software or games that claim to be for Symbian Series 60 (S60 for short) work for N70. For most you would need the latest versions. There is a lot of free software available on the Net which becomes evident the moment you run a google query for, say, "S60 Free Software". Please be aware though that some can cause your phone to hang or at times can contain viruses. The best policy is to stick to popular and purchased utilities that have good reviews available.

It provides support forJava Applications through Java™ MIDP 2.0 & CLDC 1.1 (J2ME). What this means is that you can run most of the Java applications.

You can find a good compilation of free S60 software at the 3-Lib Page.

Useful Java and Symbiam applications (not all is free) might be found at GetJar.com.

I recommend the following very useful free utilities:

• Autolock - lets you setup autolocking of the keypad after a configurable period of inactivity.


• Fexplorer - a very versatile and must-have file manager.


• XXL ScreenSaver - keep a big time display on screen with additional information when the phone is in locked mode.
