You may be able to request these updates through the Nokia Software Updater PC application. Software updates may not be available for all products or their variants. All operators may not endorse the latest software versions available.
To update the device software, you need the Nokia Software Updater application and a compatible PC with the Microsoft Windows XP or Vista operating system, broadband internet access, and a compatible data cable to connect your device to the PC.
Warning: If you install a software update,
you cannot use the device, even to make emergency calls, until the installation is completed and the device is restarted. Be sure to back up data before accepting installation of an update.
To get more information and to download the Nokia Software Updater application, visit
www.nokia.com/softwareupdate or your local Nokia website.
If software updates over the air are supported by your network, you may also be able to request updates through the device.
Tip: To check the software version in your device, enter *#0000# in the standby mode.

Prolong battery life

Many features in your device increase the demand on battery power and reduce the battery life time. To save battery power, note the following:
Features that use Bluetooth technology, or
allowing such features to run in the background while using other features, increase the demand on battery power. Turn Bluetooth technology off when you do not need it.
Features that use wireless LAN (WLAN), or
allowing such features to run in the background while using other features, increase the demand on battery power. WLAN on your Nokia device switches off when you are not trying to connect, not connected to an access point, or not scanning for available networks. To further reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your device does not scan, or scans less often, for available networks in the background.

The Maps application downloads new map
information when you scroll to new areas on the map, which increases the demand on battery power. You can prevent the automatic download of new maps.
If the signal strength of the cellular network
varies much in your area, your device must scan for the available network repeatedly. This increases the demand on battery power.
If the network mode is set to dual mode in the network settings, the device searches for the UMTS network. To only use the GSM network, press

Transfer content

You can use the Switch application to copy content such as phone numbers, addresses, calendar items, and images from your previous Nokia device to your Nokia N96 using Bluetooth connectivity.
The type of content that can be transferred depends on the model of the device from which you want to transfer content. If that device supports synchronisation, you can also synchronise data between the devices. Your Nokia N96 notifies you if the other device is not compatible.
If the other device cannot be switched on without a SIM card, you can insert your SIM card in it. When your Nokia N96 is switched on without a SIM card, the offline profile is automatically activated, and transfer can be done.

4. From your Nokia N96, select the content you
want to transfer from the other device. When the transfer has started, you can cancel it
and continue later.
Content is transferred from the memory of the other device to the corresponding location in your Nokia N96. The transfer time depends on the amount of data to be transferred.
See "Pair
Page 27

Synchronise, retrieve, or send content

After the first transfer, select from the following to start a new transfer, depending on the model of the other device:
to synchronise content between your Nokia N96 and the other device, if the other device supports synchronisation. The synchronisation is two-way. If an item is deleted in one device, it is deleted in both. You cannot restore deleted items with synchronisation.
to retrieve content from the other device to your Nokia N96. With retrieval, content is transferred from the other device to your Nokia N96. You may be asked to keep or delete the original content in the other device, depending on the device model.
to send content from your Nokia N96 to your other device
If Switch cannot send an item, depending on the type of the other device, you can add the item to the
Nokia folder to C:\Nokia or E:\Nokia i n yo ur Nok ia
N96. When you select the folder to transfer, the items are synchronised in the corresponding folder in the other device, and vice versa.
Use shortcuts to repeat a transfer
After a data transfer, you can save a shortcut with the transfer settings to the main view to repeat the same transfer later.
To edit the shortcut, scroll to it, and select
Options > Shortcut settings. You can, for
example, create or change the name of the shortcut.
A transfer log is shown after every transfer. To view the log of the last transfer, scroll to a shortcut in the main view, and select Options > View log.
Handle transfer conflicts
If an item to be transferred has been edited in both devices, the device attempts to merge the changes automatically. If this is not possible, there is a transfer conflict. Select Check one by one, Priority
to this phone, or Priority to other phone to solve
the conflict. For further instructions, select
Options > Help.

FM radio

You can use the radio as a traditional FM radio and automatically tune into and save stations. If you tune into stations that offer the Visual Radio service (network service), you will see information related to the radio programme on the display.
The radio supports Radio Data System (RDS) functionality. Radio stations supporting RDS may display information, such as the name of the station. If activated in the settings, RDS also attempts to scan for an alternative frequency for the currently playing station, if the reception is weak.
When you open the radio for the first time, a wizard helps you to save local radio stations (network service).
If you cannot access the Visual Radio service, the operators and radio stations in your area may not support Visual Radio.

Nokia Internet Radio

With the Nokia Internet Radio application (network service), you can listen to available radio stations on the internet. To listen to radio stations, you must have a WLAN or packet data access point defined in your device. Listening to the stations may involve the transmission of large amounts of data through your service provider's network. The recommended connection method is WLAN. Check with your service provider for terms and data service fees before using other connections. For example, a flat rate data plan can allow large data transfers for a set monthly fee.

Tips on taking good photographs

Picture quality
Use the appropriate picture quality. The camera has several picture quality modes. Use the highest setting to make sure that the camera produces the best picture quality available. Note however, that better picture quality requires more storage space. For multimedia message (MMS) and e-mail attachments it may be necessary to use the smallest picture quality mode optimised for MMS sending. You can define the quality in the camera settings.
See "Still image camera settings", p. 72.
Background
Use a simple background. For portraits and other pictures with people, avoid having your subject in front of a cluttered, complex background that may distract attention from the subject. Move the camera, or the subject, when these conditions cannot be met. Move the camera closer to the object to take clearer portraits.
Depth
When shooting landscapes and sceneries, add depth to your pictures by placing objects in the foreground. If the foreground object is too close to the camera, it may be blurred.
Lighting conditions
Camera
69
Page 70
Changing the source, amount, and direction of light can change photographs dramatically. Here are some typical lighting conditions:
Light source behind the subject. Avoid placing
Camera
your subject in front of a strong light source. If the light source is behind the subject or visible in the display, the resulting picture may have weak contrast, may be too dark, and may contain unwanted light effects.
Sidelit subject. Strong side light gives a dramatic
effect but may be too harsh, resulting in too much contrast.
Light source in front of the subject. Harsh
sunlight may cause the subjects to squint their eyes. The contrast may also be too high.
Optimal lighting is found in situations where
there is plenty of diffused, soft light available, for example, on a bright, partially cloudy day or on a sunny day in the shadow of trees.

Positioning (GPS)

You can use applications such as Maps and GPS data to find out your location, or measure distances and coordinates. These applications require a GPS connection.
Positioning (GPS)

About GPS

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a worldwide radio navigation system that includes 24 satellites and their ground stations that monitor the operation of the satellites. Your device has an internal GPS receiver.
A GPS terminal receives low-power radio signals from the satellites and measures the travel time of the signals. From the travel time, the GPS receiver can calculate its location to the accuracy of metres.
The coordinates in the GPS are expressed in degrees and decimal degrees format using the international WGS-84 coordinate system.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United
90
States government and is subject to change with
the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. The GPS receiver should only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals.
Any GPS should not be used for precise location measurement, and you should never rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for positioning or navigation.
To enable or disable different positioning methods, such as Bluetooth GPS, press
Settings > General > Positioning > Positioning methods.
, and select Tools >

Assisted GPS (A-GPS)

Your device also supports Assisted GPS (A-GPS). A-GPS is a network service. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance
data over a packet data connection, which assists in calculating the coordinates of your current location
Page 91
when your device is receiving signals from satellites.
When you activate A-GPS, your device receives useful satellite information from an assistance data server over the cellular network. With the help of assisted data, your device can obtain the GPS position faster.
Your device is preconfigured to use the Nokia A-GPS service, if no service provider-specific A-GPS settings are available. The assistance data is retrieved from the Nokia A-GPS service server only when needed.
You must have an internet access point defined in the device to retrieve assistance data from the Nokia A-GPS service over a packet data connection. To define an access point for A-GPS, press select Tools > Settings > General >
Positioning > Positioning server > Access point. A wireless LAN access point cannot be used
for this service. Only a packet data internet access point can be used. Your device asks for the internet access point when GPS is used for the first time.
, and

Hold your device correctly

The GPS receiver is located on the back of the device. When using the receiver, make sure that you do not cover the antenna with your hand.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of seconds to several minutes. Establishing a GPS connection in a vehicle may take longer.
The GPS receiver draws its power from the device battery. Using the GPS receiver may drain the battery faster.

Tips on creating a GPS connection

If your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the following:
If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better
signal.
If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
Ensure that your hand does not cover the GPS
antenna of your device.

Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows,
which may block the satellite signals.
Check satellite signal status
To check how many satellites your device has found, and whether your device is receiving satellite signals, press
Connectivity > GPS data > Position > Options > Satellite status.
Positioning (GPS)
If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite is shown in the satellite info view. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal. When your device has received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate the coordinates of your location, the bar turns black.
Initially your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of your location. When the initial calculation has been made, it may be possible to continue calculating the coordinates of your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy is generally better when more satellites are found.

Walk navigation differs from drive navigation in many ways: The walking route ignores any possible limitations to car navigation, such as one-way streets and turn restrictions, and includes areas
100
such as pedestrian zones and parks. It also
prioritises walkways and smaller roads, and omits highways and motorways. The length of a walking route is limited to a maximum of 50 kilometres (31 miles) and the travelling speed to a maximum of 30 km/h (18 miles/h). If the speed limit is exceeded, navigation stops and is resumed once the speed is back within limits.
Turn-by-turn navigation or voice guidance are not available for Walk navigation. Instead, a big arrow shows the route and a small arrow at the bottom of the screen points directly to destination. Satellite view is only available for Walk navigation.
Navigate to the desired destination
To start navigation to the desired destination with GPS, select any location on the map or in a results list, and Options > Drive to or Walk to.
To switch between different views during navigation, scroll left or right.
To stop navigation, press Stop.
To select navigation options, press Options during navigation. If driving navigation is active, a menu view with various options is displayed.
Some keypad keys correspond to the options in the view. For example, press 2 to repeat a voice command, 3 to switch between day mode and night mode, and 4 to save the current place.
