Hello everybody!

I got my Nokia 6600 a few days ago, and, overall I am very pleased with the phone. There are one or two things that I wish was a bit better, and for that, I need your help :-)

I am used to a Nokia 6610, and would like some recommendations from you for the following applications for the 6600:

1) A calendar application that works and looks the same as the one in the 6610, specifically, one that shows how old a person will be in the current year. The 6600 can show it is the person's birthday, but not how old he/she is :-(

2) An automatic keyguard application that will lock the keypad after a certain amount of time

3) A better contacts manager that will allow me to change for example a mobile number type to a business number type (In the 6610 you can select a number and "Change type" to something else)

Thank you in advance!

2) Automatic keygaurd--- you can set your 6600 to lock the phone after a certain periosd by doing this

Menu--->Settings--->Security--->Phone and SIM--->Autolock period

when this time is elapsed the phone will requuire your lock code to continue not just softkey*

the default Nokia lock code is 12345 but you can change it,, if you have nit already done so by doing this

Menu--->Settings--->Security--->Phone and SIM--->Lock Code

yu will then be asked to enter your current lock code or the default if you dont have one the to enter your new one twice

note: you will also be asked for the lock code when you turn the phone on if Autolock period is enabled




3) you can do this on the 6600 too

Contacts--->go to the contact whose number type you want to change---> options--->Edit--->Options--->Add Detail--> select the detail type you want---> type the number

if you aso want to change the label of the detil eg. mobile to palm top then

Contacts--->go to the contact whose detail type you want to change---> options--->Edit--->Options--->edit label


about the calender psiloc.com or epocware may have a program but im not certain

hope this helps

1.I don't if aqua calendar has been ported to Series 60.Search the shop.
2.I think he is looking for a keylock,not phonelock.There is a freeware keylock application,search the forum.
