Backup Of Your Phone Or Laptop Battery

Increase And Regain The Original Backup Of Your Phone Or LAPTOP Battery

receiving a lot of mails from some readers asking on how to deal with the weak battery problems of their laptops and mobile phones.

As day by day their mobile and laptop batteries are becoming more and more weak so the backup time of the battery decrease gradually.

Why Battery Backup Time Drops ?

This occurs mainly due to the rough usage and improper charging of the battery at multiple times for a very short interval or also due to the extensive charging of the battery for a long interval of time.

How To regain the original increased backup time for your laptop and phone batteries.

1. Firstly drain your phone or laptop battery completely until the device gets shutdown due to battery.

2. Now simply charge your battery for a fixed time according to the manuals provided with it at the time of purchase.

3. Repeat the step 1 and step 2 for about 2 times a day fro 3-4 days.

If you really do the steps given above you will noticeably see a change in the backup time of your battery of phone or laptop.

Turn off your computer from a cell phone

I read about this online a little while ago, and found it really cool. Using this simple method, a user can shutdown, restart, hibernate, etc. his or her computer, just by sending an email from his or her phone. I know, sounds really cool. To do this, all you will need is Microsoft Outlook which should come with Microsoft Office, which most people have. This will need to be on the computer wish you wish to shutdown. So, this is how you do this:

Internet on your phone using Bluetooth

I found this other guide which is more easy for newbies to follow. I ahvent checked it on my 6600. Will do the testing soon. Those of you on N-gage & 3650 please try too and post a new topic outside this FAQ section about how it is.

this will work on most s60 phone I guess! it has been tested on an NGAGE and on N3650!

step 1:
Creating an access point on your phone!

tools\settings\connection\access points\options\new access point>default settings...

these are the settings u need there..

Connection Name : Anything (sugestion ADLS or PCGPRS something u remember well cuz u'll need it later!)

Data Bearer: GPRS

Access Point Name: The name you gave to your bt connection when pairing up with the computer...

Username : None

Password : No

Authentication : Normal

Gateway IP Address : 0.0.0.0

and that's all on this on this part..

then go to:

tools/settings/connection, and select GPRS

set the GPRS connection to "when available", and the access point to "none".

The settings on your fone are done! now... the next step;

Create a serial port connection from ur pc to ur phone (u've done this before if u ever used Pcsuite from nokia), this serial connection must be on everytime you want to use your pc internet connection as a gprs connection for ur phone!!

Install the software u need to surf the web (opera, netfront, agile messenger for chat, etc..)

My advise to you is to use netfront, the options are pretty cool and it uses less memory meaning u can still run other program such as agile at the same time (it crashed my 3650 when I tried to do it with opera)..

Voil? ur ready to use ur phone to surf and chat for free!!

hope this helped you and that is simple and clear!! any question u know where to post, this will be updated if many doubts come up.

ps. works with ngage arena games!!!

Enjoy!
