Revealing the Headphone and Car-Kit menus
Please note that if you do these next tricks, the new menus can't be erased without retoring the factory default settings. To do these tricks you need to short-circuit the pins on the bottom of the phone next to where you plug in you charger.
1. To activate the "Headset" menu, you need to short-circuit pins "3" and "4". After a short time the word "Headset" will be shown in the display. Menu 3-6 is now enabled.
2. To activate the "Car" menu, you need to short-circuit pins "4" and "5". After a short time the word "Car" will be shown in the display. Menu 3-7 is now enabled.
THE REBOOT TRICK
This should work on all software versions of the 6110.
1. Go to the Calendar (Menu-8)
2. Make a note or reminder.
3. Enter some text into the edit box.
4. Hold "Clear" until the whole text is cleared, then press "Back".
5. Press "0". The main screen will now be showing but a space appears on the screen. (you can't see it)
6. Enter 4 digits (e.g. 1234).
7. Use the down arrow to move the cursor to the left side of the numbers and the space (Down arrow twice).
8. Now enter 6 digits and press the call button.
Wait for a few seconds, the screen should start to flash and reboots. It should alsowork on other menus like the "Profiles" menu.
EFR CALL QUALITY
To activate EFR (Enhanced Full Rate) Enter the code-
*3370#
This improves call quality but decreases batterylife by about 5%
To deactivate it, Enter the code-
#3370#
THE JAMES BOND TRICK
If you short-circuit theleft middle and right pins on the bottom of the phone with all connections touching each other, the Nokia software hangs! The profile "Headset" will be activated. Before you do this just activate the "Automatic Answer" in the headset profile and set the ringing volume to "Mute". Now you can use your phone for checking out what people are talking about in a room. Just place it under a table in a room and call it. The phone receives the call without ringing and you can listen to what people are saying.
NETWORK MONITOR
There is a hidden menu inside your Nokia phone. If you want to activate it, you'll have to re-program some chips inside of your phone.
Check your software version. You can only continue if you have v4.33, v4.73 or v5.24.
Take apart the phone.
De-solder the EEPROM (ATMEL AT 24C64).
Read out the data with an EEPROM programmer and save it to a file (Backup).
If you have v.33 or v4.73, change the address "03B8" from "00" to "FF".
If you have v5.24 then change the address "0378" from "00" to "FF".
Write the new data to the EEPROM and solder it back to the phone,
Power on your phone and you should have "Netmonitor" enabled.
The Network Monitor gives you the following information.
Carrier number
MS RX Level in DBM
Received signal quality
MS TX power level
C1 (Path loss criterion, used for cell selection and reselection). The range is -99 to 99.
RTL (Radio link timeout).
Timeslot
Indication of the transmitter status
Information on the Network parameters.
TMSI (Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity).
Cell identification (Cell ID, Number of cells being used).
MCC (Mobile country code)
MCN (Mobile network code)
LAC (Location area code)
Ciphering (On/Off)
Hopping (On/Off)
DTX (On/Off)
Discard cell barred information
CHECK SIM-LOCK
Note - If you bought your Nokia on UK Vodafone or UK Cellnet you do not need to check this because they both transmit on GSM900, and they don't lock the phones. However if you bought your phone on UK Orange or UK One2one your phone may be blocked. The reason is that they both transmitt on GSM1800. To make a call on GSM1800 you need what is known as a "Dual band" phone. A dual band phone is able to transmit on both GSM900 and GSM1800, so they lock the phones so you can't use it with any other network simcard. If you find that your phone is locked you can try different software to unlock it. (we havn't found one that works yet), or you can ask your service provider who will gladly exchange the 10 digit code for about £35.
This is how to check the status of the 4 different locks. Aslo don't try entering the wrong number, because after 3 times it will block the phone for good.
There are 4 different locks on your Nokia phone.
COUNTRY-LOCK
NETWORK-LOCK
PROVIDER-LOCK
SIMCARD-LOCK
The code to read out the sim-lock status of your phone is
#PW+(MASTERCODE)+(Y)#
# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4
The master code is a secret code. The code has 10 digits, To read out the sim-lock status you can enter every combination you want!
"Y" Shows the status of the network-lock. Here you can enter a number from "1" to "4". The "4" is for the sim-card lock.
SIM-LOCK CHECKS
#PW+1234567890+1# = GIVES PROVIDER-LOCK STATUS
#PW+1234567890+2# = GIVES NETWORK-LOCK STATUS
#PW+1234567890+3# = GIVES COUNTRY-LOCK STATUS
#PW+1234567890+4# = GIVES SIM-CARD-LOCK STATUS.

Facebook's Viking Clan Tricks, Hints and Tips
Read on below to find tricks, hints and tips for Viking Clan. You can also leave your own tips to share them with the rest of the community, leave one now!
Adventures
Adventures are the quickest way to earn Gold, Experience and Land early in the game. Each adventure has different requirements such as Clan size, Warriors, Weapons and Energy.
Drop Items
Some adventures will randomly award special "drop" items, such as Weapons and Warriors. Some items are easy to get, other ones are not.
Quest Achievements
You will be awarded an achievement for completing each quest a certain number of times.
Ask For Help
You are allowed to ask for help on any adventure once every 22 hours. Each time a friend helps you will be rewarded with Gold and EXP. A maximum of 6 friends can help each time help is asked for.
Battle
During a battle, every Chieftain of your Clan is armed with the most powerful items/Weapons you own and can each bring in a certain number of Warriors before the battle results are calculated. For example, if you have 2 Chieftains in your Clan, you should try to own at least 10 Weapons and 20 Warriors or you will not be maximizing the use of your Chieftains. Each Chieftain of your Clan can hold 5 Weapons, and lead 10 Warriors to battle.
Battle Balance
To balance the game, your Clans' effectiveness is limited by your level as well as by the number of Chieftains you have to lead your Warriors. Although transparent in the game, a level 1 Clan with 10 Chieftains will only have a slight advantage over a level 1 Clan with 5 Chieftains. In later stages of the game, however, larger Clans carry a significant advantage over smaller Clans.
Warrior Deaths
At higher levels clan warriors can be killed during battle, the weakest warriors in your clan will be the first to die.
Bounties
A number will appear by the "Battle" menu link when a "Bounty" has been placed on another Clan leader in the game. A bounty can be viewed by potentially hundreds of thousands of other players all at the same time, so successfully making a kill on from the bounty is not an easy task. Anyone can add any other Clan Chieftains in the game to the bounty if they have enough money.
Beware of the Bounty!
Huge bounties on the bounty list usually mean that the target is a very powerful Clan Chieftains. Attacking them opens up any level player to retaliation attacks from that user. For this reason, lower level Clan Chieftains should be wary of who they decide to mess with on the bounty list.
How is my bounty cost determined?
The minimum amount of Gold required to place another Chieftain on the bounty list is determined by how big their Empire is. Having a bigger Empire makes you a much higher profile target.
Rival Clans
Rival Clans is a place to view your most hated rivals, and provides all the options available to seek revenge!

Counter Attacks
Counter Attacks can be set on other clans for a cost. If a counter attack has been set on a clan, the next time they attack you (if with-in 30 days or so) you will catch them off guard and destroy them in battle.
Bounty Trap
If you have someone constantly bountying you then the bounty trap is for you. Set a bounty trap on a user and the next time they try to bounty you will result in death for them and a kill for you!
Empire
The Empire is the lifeblood of any Viking Clan, and the more of it you control, the more powerful you can become. Vikings who own many buildings can earn huge incomes with which they can buy any standard item in the game.
Why do I have negative income?
Chances are, you overspent on warriors and weapons that require upkeep. Sell off your biggest upkeep items before they get repossessed from you, and start building up your clan once your income can support it. If you keep a negative income you will LOSE Warriors and Weapons once your money runs out!
Clan
At a glance, Clan lets you see all the Warriors and Weapons you have accumulated in the game, and enables you to buy and sell them at will. Some advanced items are not available until you reach higher levels.
Upkeep
Higher level Warriors and Weapons have an upkeep, if you cannot afford to pay the hourly upkeep on items you will lose them!
Warriors / Weapons Missing?
Regular Items can be lost 2 ways: Warriors can be killed in battle at the higher levels and Warriors/Weapons with Upkeep will be lost if hourly Upkeep is greater than Income. Drop, Power Up and God Items will not be lost in battles or if Upkeep is too high.
Special Items
Special Items are those acquired through adventures, power up purchases and from The Gods. Special Items are used by your Chieftains but can also be used to arm yourself to give you a stronger attack and defense in Battle.
The Gods
If you feel one of these "offers" has taken advantage of you, is unsafe, or spams your email box or something, please report it to us. We do not choose the offers, but do have the power to remove them from the list.
Missing Points From a Completed Offer?
On The Gods page, visit the link that says "View Offer Status". There is a company that runs all those offers, and they can help you directly. We are unable to help with favor points unless they tell you that they were issued. A bug with favor points is possible but so far quite rare. Sometimes there is a slight delay while the offer is confirmed on their end, and the offer will often specify how long it takes.
Did all of the above and still missing your points?
Just message us with the offer filled out, # of points missing, and paste some confirmation of awarded points. We will check the records and take care of it for you!
Chieftains
Your Chieftains are one of the most important aspects of the game, and exist not just as a way to help get your friends involved, but also as a fully functional part of the game. Each of your Chieftains will be individually armed with whatever items you have available in your inventory and lead your Warriors during a battle. To balance the game, your Clans' effectiveness is limited by your level as well as by the number of Chieftains you have to lead your Warriors. In later stages of the game, however, larger Clans carry a significant advantage over smaller Clans.
Inner Circle
Reward your closest friends by adding them to your Inner Circle. Every time you win in Battle, Complete an Adventure or Claim a Bounty, your Inner Circle Chieftains receive a percentage of your earnings! If a Chieftain adds you to their Inner Circle, you will receive a percentage of their earnings. You must check back at least every 3 days or earnings will be lost.
Berserk Boosts
Berserk Boosts are another way to reward Chieftains in your Inner Circle. Berserk Boosts increase the attack strength of a Clan for a limited time. You can send 1 Berserk Boost to each Inner Circle Chieftain once every 24-hrs. Multiple Berserk Boosts from the same Chieftain used at the same time will have the same affect as 1 Berserk Boost.
Profile
Your profile represents your character in the game and has various attributes which can be upgraded as your level increases. A tally of stats is also recorded throughout the entire game, accrediting you with various achievements.
Level Up Attribute Refills
Each time you reach a new level, you will receive bonus health, energy and stamina from the Gods. For lower levels, they will be refilled completely, for the higher levels they will receive a maximum of 1000 health, 300 energy and 30 stamina up to your characters maximum.
Arm Yourself!
Arm yourself with up to 3 weapons from your special items for an increase in attack and defense strength during Battles!
Axe Slap!
Say hello to your rivals with a good old Axe Slap to the face. You can Axe Slap a rival once every 1 hour, Axe Slaps cost 1 Stamina and will decrease your rivals health but not your own. But be careful, Axe Slapping higher level players will open you up for retaliation for a limited time.
Hoard
The Hoard is a place to safehouse your Gold so it cannot be stolen during a raid by another Clan. Of course, it is a risk for the keepers to protect your Gold, so it comes with a price. Access to the Hoard is available on every page by clicking on the "Gold" or "Hoard" links in the top right of the header.
Fast Leveling in Viking Clan
While there are several ways to level up, there are many ways that are far more efficient than others. What i would recommend is First: Join an add-me group (Viking Clan Add Me and Viking Clan 500+ in Under an Hour, are two that I use). Next, spend the majority of your skill points on Health, Stamina, and Attack. Defense isnt necessary because usually you just heal and move on, and I only recommend having enough energy to do about 5-10 of an adventure before running out of energy. Adventures aren't a great source of xp anyway. Always remember to do plenty of boss battles, as these give you fast xp and relatively good items. But the best source of xp is simply winning battles. You will receive more xp for defeating clans closer to your size, but I generally just eliminate everyone that is my size or smaller until all that is left are the extremely large clans, which I leave alone. Then, just give the list an hour or so to refresh and repeat the process. Hope this helps!

The Most Important Blog Tip Of All Time
In my career as a blogger, there has been one tip that has helped me more than all the other tips combined. It has also served me well as an internet entrepreneur, business owner, father, husband, brother, son, and as a human being in general. Were I to gauge another person’s success or failure in this industry, the proper execution of this one tip would trump all others in my eyes.
Are you ready for it?
Now, I’m not trying to sound like a motivational speaker, or spurt a bunch of corny cliches at you, but I know the art of never giving up is a success maker. This doesn’t mean that you should continue to pour time and money into a failing business model, absolutely not. But what is does mean is that you don’t let the fact that you had a failing business model deter you from jumping right back with another business model, and another, and another if necessary until you do succeed. The most successful and interesting people I know failed several times before perfecting their strategies, and it paid off BIG TIME!
Some important points to remember:
- During his younger years, Thomas Edison was told repeatedly that he wasn’t very bright and had trouble holding a regular job. He also failed thousands of times as an inventor, before finally perfecting the light bulb.
- Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard and started “Traf-O-Data”, which failed miserably. After collecting himself, he came back a little later with Microsoft, and we all know how that worked out.
- After being fired from his job because he “lacked imagination and had no good ideas”, Walt Disney failed and went bankrupt with several businesses before he finally founded the Walt Disney company.
So be of good cheer and let not your heart be troubled. If you want it bad enough, and you are willing to keep trying as long as it takes, you can have it.
Do you have any inspirational success stories to tell? I would love to hear about them in the comments.
Are you ready for it?
NEVER QUIT, EVER !!!!!
- Even when it looks like there is no hope
- Even when others are laughing and saying you will never do it
- Even when it seems like you are talking to no one but yourself
If you are determined to succeed in this business, this is the only tip that you need to follow religiously. Every other successful blogger and internet marketer is already executing this tip, guaranteed. Not only that, if you ask any other successful person about this tip, I promise they will agree that it is essential to success.Now, I’m not trying to sound like a motivational speaker, or spurt a bunch of corny cliches at you, but I know the art of never giving up is a success maker.
