An annoyance that has come in handy!

K, so I was playing Street Duel, when the bloody screen calibration thing kept coming up! I figured out what was happening...

Try holding down the mail button and pressing the middle "select" button...

So, when playing landscape games and using the mail button as an accelerator -- try not to push in the middle button while steering ;)

Following from that, I found that holding the T@ symbol (on a Vario) - top right button - and pressing middle select button brings up the start menu. Useful for 1 handed operation - although I've got my Mail button assigned to do that already.

I found that pressing and holding the WiFi/Bluetooth button and then pressing the select button (whilst holding the WiFi button), toggled my phone from Vibrate to on. I then needed to release the WiFi button and if I did it again, it toggled it from On to Vibrate.

I'm really interested to see how you can press the top T@ button and the select button using only one hand!

One handed operation huh! Only if you're double jointed! ;) :P

One hand and a desk? ;)

When I said one-handed, I think I actually meant, stylus free, nibbled fingernail use.

Is that better?

Actually - I just managed it one handed. Cup phone with 3 fingers of right hand. With side of index finger press the T@ button and then with your thumb press the select button.

Yeah, thanks swampie! Dropped my phone on my foot and borke my 4th metatarsal trying that little bit of advice, now what was the number on that advert I saw earlier today. "Where theres blame, theres a claim" I think they said..... :P ;) ;)

Hi,

to toggle the vibrate on/off you don't need to press the select button. simply holding the comm manager button on it's own will do it!

Indeed, I was just thinking that.

Also, on my XDA Mini S, When I do the Hold IE + Press center button, it opens the start menu, but also IE, no matter how hard I try :P

Any tips on that? Would be really helpful and I don't want to lose any of my current buttons ;)

Thanks!
