How To Know Whether You Are In 3G Coverage Area Or Not

Today I'll tell you how to know whether 3G have come to your area/city or not. And you don't need any 3G sim to check that. You can check that by your existing 2G sim,but your phone should be 3G enabled.

Although it's a very simple trick,I don't know whether I should call it a trick or not,but for those who doesn't know-

Go to Settings > Phone > Network on a S60v3 phone(like N79,N82,6220). Under "Network Mode" choose "3G" or "UMTS" option.
And in "Operator Selection" ,search for network manually,if any operator name appears,that means you have 3G service of those operators in your area. If any operator name does not comes ,that means you still have to wait for 3G in your area!



For Nokia touch screen phones(like 5800,5230,5235),go to Settings > Connectivity > Network. Rest of the process is same.

That's all!

How To Make A Wireless FM Antenna For Any Mobile Phone

Today I'll tell you how to make a wireless FM antenna for any mobile phone which have 3.5mm earphone jack.

Step 1- Take any cheap 3.5mm earphone(which you could destroy!).

Step2- Cut the earphone wire from from top of the pin.

Step3- Take the pin and remove all plastic insulation attached to it.

Step4- Take a small length of copper wire(about 10-12cm long).

Step5- Attach one end of the copper wire to the top pin of the jack, if you want,you can solder it also. Now connect the jack to your phone and open FM radio,tune in to your favorite channel. Depending on the signal strength at your house,your phone should catch FM signal.

Step6- Your FM antenna is ready, you can attach other end of the wire to the pin above the flat pin,as shone in the figure below. That will make a loop.



Step7- If you want,you can cover the portion above flat pin with tape or thread for grip and for decoration,as I did.
