Fn key
- bottom left corner. Press once to use numbers keypad. Press twice to keep using numbers.
Ctrl key - use to select items on a list individually. Combine with + C to copy, +V to paste, +X to cut.
Up (shift) arrow key - holding down Up arrow allows you to select text to copy and paste, which can be accessed by +left selection key (for copy) and +right selection key (for paste)
0 key - hold down to get to Web Browser

  1. Hi, I have a question, I just got this cellphone, I think its great. However I apparently dont have the option to insert a cellphone number on a text message. Is there any trick or shortcut to do that?

    And another thing, is it possible to have a list of resent contact used for when I text message.

    Thanks!

  2. Great question.. shortcuts for recent contacts used for messaging doesn't come with the Nokia unfortunately. However, try SMSDiary, that we just reviewed.

  6. I believe the shortcutlist is not complete.

    One shortcut that I know of to turn up volume/turn down volume is to press shift key and up/down arrow simultaneously
