XpressMusic™ Tips and Tricks

Howdy,XpressMusic Lovers! Tips and Tricks for your phone.

Nokia 5300 is a great music phone, but the battery is utterly short. So we’ve come up with this tips and tricks that can help you save some juice out of your phone. It’s also covers tips to maximize your phone functionality and usability.

Camera Tips: [Updated]

1. Always set the NIGHT MODE when shooting indoors.
2. Set the White Balance to Daylight – When outdoors (Day) Fluorescent – When indoors
3. For acceptable shots, set the resolution to 800 x 600.

NOTE: Using the camera will put up a big drain on your battery.

Battery Tips: [Updated]

  • Don’t always use the camera. Only when needed.
  • Set Packet Data Connection to When Needed. Setting can be found on Settings>Connectivity>Packet Data
  • Always turn on the Power Saver Feature.
  • Turn off your Bluetooth when not in use.
  • Turn off screensavers
  • Go to Settings > Phone > Operator Selection > Manual and select your operator. This way the phone doesn’t search for a signal all the time and drain the battery out.(Only advisable for network with good signal.)
  • Always make sure that the phone has an adequate signal. (If the phone is searching for signals, it drains a big part of the battery)
  • I know its fun to play games, but it can decrease your battery so fast.
  • Don’t discharge the battery frequently, otherwise the battery will decrease it’s performance.
  • Battery maintenance, it is recommended to discharge the battery every 30 charge cycles or once a month.
  • The best of all, carry an extra battery if you’re a heavy user.

How to Create Playlist on Nokia 5300, 5310, and 5610

It’s possible to create a playlist straight on your Nokia 5300, 5310 and 5610. I’ll share this little hack for everyone and here’s the trick.

Basically,
- You start by emptying the “Favorites” tracklist.
- Then go to the music library, and start adding songs in the order you want them (go to the song, and choose ‘add to favorites’ under Options).
- When all songs are added, go back to Favorites tracklist,
- and start to play it.
- Then finally, in the ‘now playing’ screen, choose Options, show tracks, again ‘Options/save as tracklist’, and give it a name.

Really a long process but a useful hack :)

Thanks to Mr.Fred for bringing this info

    Don’t Charge the battery after there isn’t energy, because if you charge the battery it still has energy, can decrease the porcentage of 100% to less every time that you charge.

    good

    To save battery, you can press red button after lock. The brightness turn off quickly.

    Regards

  4. LostWithoutABeat said

    Turn off your Auto-Keylock the reason being when you close the slide your display will dim after a few seconds and then a few seconds later light back up so you can read the message telling you that your keypad is locked. If you use your phone often this lighting/dimming of your display takes quite a toll on your battery. if keylock is important to you get in the habit of hitting the center button when you close your phone as this will engage the lock.

    hey edgar? do you mean we cannot charge the battery when there is still some charges left? i cannot really understand what you’re saying.

    iv recently buyed nokia5310 music xpress,but it hangs sometime…..can someone help me out……and wat for is sleep mode?????

    Bhanu maybe try updating the phone’s firmware!

  9. narayan shrestha said

    i have nokia 5200.i have restore my mobile.but i have not to know security codes.so what can i do.

  10. Narayan Shrestha,

    The default security code for Nokia phones is 12345. If you have changed this before, a firmware reinstallation will probably help.

    Suggestion to make it sound louder with clear sound.
    I find that adjusting the Equalizer these ways produce louder sound with less distortion:

    (1 to 9 lines with the 1 way down,5 neutral and 9 way up)
    Rock: 9-7-8-5-9
    Clean: 5-6-5-8-9

    I know how to use the email and IM client of 5300 in the philippines. anyone interested?

  13. Gustokonyan,

    You might want to share it here and for readers from the Philippines.

    If this thing works, i could add it on this post as well.

    ;)

  14. wowowee said

    If mpeg is not supported on 5300,

    what are the files supported by the media player?

  15. wow said

    what kind of video file is supported in nokia 5300’s media player?

    i tried mpeg it did not work.

  16. Qazi Shehryar said

    your settings were great jacob. I thank u. Works gr8on my 5700. But still an upgrade in firmware for loudness is needed.

  17. Wowowee/Wow

    The Nokia 5300 only does supports 3GP and MP4 files. You can convert it with Plato 3GP converter, with the settings–176×144 resolution, 15fps, and AMR sound.

    Qazi Shehryar,

    Are you referring to the loudness option itself? or on the playback? As I’ve heard on some forums, the loudness option does not make any difference with this setting either its turned on or not.

    ;)

  18. Qazi Shehryar said

    i m reffering to the loudness in playback not to the loudness option and yes the loudness option doesn’t works. So tell proper nokia authority to launch a new firmware upgrade for loudness in playback as well as with working loudness option. And one more thing, doesn’t nokia test their sell phones before they launch to test wether they are working fine or not. Like the loudness option doesn’t works in 5700 and the sound in ear phones isn’t loud at all. Many 5700 users need firmware upgrade for loudness in sound. I had nokia 6630 and it had better and loud sound then 5700 (in earphones). I only bought 5700 bec nokia said that it had sonic chip with crystal clear HI-FI sound (i laughed on that one when i bought it) and still i am regreting it that why didn’t i bought SE phone but i bought it cause i am a huge nokia fan. So nokia should launch a firmware upgrade soon enough or else no one is going to buy this disappointing phone. My friends r also cursing me bec i told them to buy this phone. And they r planning to sell 5700 if nokia doesn’t launch firmware upgrade soon.

  23. Qazi,

    If you wish to contact Nokia, you may email them using this form:

    Your comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    P.S> But I’ll still tell your request to the proper people who can deal with it.

    da 5300 camera can focused to take close range photos with a small piece of magnifying glass (or magnifying plastic…watever..) while shooting close objects (within 10CM) just like macro mode. if you put a small magnifying glass in front of da cam while shooting it will sharpen close range images a LOT better…well…still trying to find good lenses 4 long range photos…lol

  25. Do u know how often l have to charge battery? Some times its like 20% energy left then l put it to charge. Is it also deffecting battery?

  26. Do u know how often l have to charge battery? Some times its like 20% energy left then l put it to charge. Is it also deffecting battery? When l play games in mobile then its finnishing early. Another question, if you play the game in mobile when charge is on is it deffecting battery?

    just acquired a 5310, and i’m very disapointed of the ringtone and speaker volume. does anyone else have this problem or is it a standard for this mobile. keep missing calls because can’t her it, tried with headphones not very loud. all on max settings. anyone got any solutions to improve. heard great results about the phone and don’t want to change it.

  28. onchi said

    Gustokonyan,
    Greetings! Im a Filipino GLOBE user.. I saw your post about making e-mails and IM in 5300. Care to share how it works?
    Thanks man!

  29. jhunel said

    hey dude i would like to ask something. I just got my nokia 5310 and it is really great. the problem is that i can’t copy or delete the included songs or free songs on the phone. i would like to delete them. can you pls teach me how.

  30. Gustokonyan said

    Jhunel,

    try moving the files from phone memory to memory card using your phone, then you should be able to remove them. For some files, it will work and you will be able to delete them. But some files have Delete, Move and other options disabled. Just give it a try. It worked with my 5300 before.

  31. Gustokonyan said

    Sorry guys, its just today that i revisited this particular page. I will prepare my post for the email and im client. It’s currently working for me, i’m a SMART subscriber. Im not sure if itll work on GLOBE..

  32. Gustokonyan said

    Ok, instructions for the email and im client:

    The following istructions are patterned using a Yahoo! Philipines account, (that is accounts with .ph extension: ex: pedro@yahoo.com.ph). My original account (me@yahoo.com) does not provide pop access and forwarding settings, so i created a new account in Yahoo! Philippines, which i use now as my official email address.

    - With your Nokia 5300, go to Messaging > Email
    -If you have not created any account before, i think you will be automatically prompted to create a new account. If you have existing accounts, then just go to Options > Manage accounts > Options > New
    -the Account Wizard will appear. Select OK.
    -You will be prompted to select a Provider/Server. Select Other.
    -Step 2 of 7: Input a name that you wish to appear on sent emails, then your complete email address (make sure you enter the correct email address. dont forget the .ph)

  33. Gustokonyan said

    -Step 3 of 7:
    Server Type: POP
    Server Name: pop.mail.yahoo.com.ph
    User Name for the incoming mail server: your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the “@yahoo.com.ph”)
    Password: your Y! Mail password
    -Step 4 of 7:
    Server name: smtp.mail.yahoo.com.ph
    User name and password for the outgoing mail server: Same as incoming
    -Step 5 of 7: Configure optional advanced setting for incoming email?: Select No
    -Step 6 of 7: Configure optional advanced setting for outgoing email?: Select No
    -Finish: Name for this account in this email client: your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the “@yahoo.com.ph”)
    -Current accounts will now be displayed. Select Back.
    -To see if its working, select Check new email.
    – Select the account you just created

  34. Gustokonyan said

    - If “Cannot connect to network. Check blah blah blah” appears, make sure that your GPRS is enabled and the SmartInternet is selected as the Preferred Access pt. (Settings > Configuration > Preferred Access pt. > SmartInternet)
    (Gprs may work with SMART as the preferred access point, but the email client wil not work until SmartInternet is selected)
    – After Selecting SmartInternet, try checking for new email using the account you created. If the message still appear, try it once again.
    – If the message still appears. check your settings, make sure you inputted the correct values and that you did not forget the holy .ph in your email address

  35. Gustokonyan said

    - When my email client started working, i just checked and tried my IM. Inputted username and password, blah blah blah. Then it worked as well. Even with my original yahoo account, the one without .ph (me@yahoo.com). Now, i use my ph account as my official email address and my first yahoo account for ym.

    Try it on globe. If it works pls inform us. For other email provider, (i.e google, lycos ,etc), incoming and outgoing server settings is always available. Login your account, search for the Options link, then look for Pop Access and Forwarding SEttings.

  36. Gustokonyan said

    Cant post it as a single comment. an erroro occurs. So i divided it into several parts.

  37. Gustokonyan said

    Oh, i think every smart subscriber knows this, but i still would like to mention that connecting to gprs will cost you P10 for 30min. Once you start connecting, P10 will automatically deducted to your load and you will be allowed to gprs all the way, download everything you can for 30mins. If you are still connected after the 30mins duration, another P10 will be deducted from your load. And you cant use GPRS with alltext loads, you will need Economy or higher, or the P15 eload. ;)

  38. Gustokonyan said

    One more thing, if i want to check messages on my original Y! account (me@yahoo.com), i use Yahoo! Go. ^^ The disadvantage is that you cannot attach files on your messages. With the email client of Nokia 5300, it is possible to download and send messages with attachments.

  39. jhunel said

    thanks gustokonyan for the reply but my problem is that there are 5 free songs in the 5310 i can play them but i cant move them nor delete them. i tried deleting them on my pc but i cant see them when i open the extra folders since thats where they are placed. the options delete and move are disabled on the phone for just this 5 music files. pls help me pls

  40. Gustokonyan said

    If the move and delete option is disabled for those files, i think there’s nothing you can do about it. They are copyrighted files. I still have some files here in my phone that i want to remove but i cant. Anyway, those files are stored in the phone memory right? In my 5300, only music files from the memory card are added on the music library. if that’s also the way 5310 adds files on its music library, then you’ll never encounter those 5 songs while your listening to music. but i understand you, their occupying valuable space on your phone memory..

  41. jhunel said

    so i am stuck with them right? thanks for the help gustokonyan

  42. onchi said

    Thanks for the info man! i’ll give it a try. SALAMAT!

  43. onchi said

    Help! i have a prob with my 5300. When i go to Settings > Configuration > Personal config settings > add > Web,MMS, IM, E-mail etc… it says cannot add new account. Memory full but my personal accounts are empty! help pls… thanks in advance!

  44. Gustokonyan said

    Onchi

    You can obtain the correct gprs and email settings from globe. try inquiring through the nearest globe wireless center. with smart, it’s texting GPRS ON to 333.

  45. caffeinefix said

    I can’t wap-browse or connect to the net now, some prob with the settings maybe when i tried having it sent by operator-network. “Packet Data Connection Not Available” / “Link Not Available” flashes on screen. Im using a 5610, and am a Globe subscriber. Anybody care to enlighten me on this pls, id greatly appreciate it :)

  46. Caffeinefix,

    Assuming your a prepaid globe subscriber, use http://www.globe.com.ph as your access point.

    Also try to get the right settings here:

    where can i get music player skins for my nokia 5300 pls reply

  61. Thomas said

    Adding video to the 5200, 5300 is very easy. Download the free nokia pc suite here: http://europe.nokia.com/A4144905

    Then select files, choose where to save ( on the phone) and it will convert on the fly. Even full lenght movies. I have personally added four 90 minute movies to my 5200 and some mp3’s. Very easy.

    Note that it sems to only convert xvid, avi’s and some other formats, it didnt like some divX movies I had.

  62. Thomas said

    Oh, btw, you will need a memory card to store the movies, as they take up some space. But the good thing is the nokia format makes it very small, full length movie is compressed from say a 6-700 xvid format into a 100-125 mbyte 3p format. hence, with my 512 Mb memory card I got with the phone, I had room for 4 movies and about 100mb of mp3’s. One can get up to 2 GB memory cards though.

  63. Thomas said

    Oh yeah, lastly, the battery WILL actually last for 1 full movie, the meter still showed full charge after the 98 minute movie finished. :)

    Well for lack of a better movie to add it was “herbie” lol
    Also added “blues brothers”, “back to the future” and “easy rider”

  64. bill said

    who can move my files in 5310 to the folder in my memory card?

  70. dabid said

    i own a 5310. The problem i’m having is that whenever i receive a text message, the time will show that it’s 8hrs delayed of the actual time. for example, i receive a text message at 8PM, look at the message detail and it’ll show 12PM instead. I’ve updated the phone’s firmware from v3.60 to v3.63 but it’s still having the same problem. does anyone else have this problem?

  102. evtbang said

    Hi,

    i have problem with Nokia 5310 express music, the files and images which are downloaded are getting saved by default in Phone memory and the memory is getting full.is there any way that i can change the the location to memory card as i have 4 Gb memory card i want to utilize it,please someone help me on this.

  103. Jont said

    Evtbang…Can’t you just go to the item, click on move and then move it to the memory card? Yes it’s a pain each time but it might be the only option.

    EI!
    I’m experiencing the same issue with Dabid here.
    i’m using Nokia 5310 with firmware version of 5.81 and the time zone is still messed up on my end. I’m in thailand and the SMS are 8 hours delayed according to my phone, which really are not. (i know this because i sent a test message to myself)
    Checked and re-checked the time zone settings and everything is set. I even bothered to go inside Menu>Apps>Collection>World Clock and set it there but still No Go! Could somebody please, for the love of God, have this issue resolved. it’s really frustrating and even more frustrating knowing that it’s a simple setting change and yet you cannot fix it yourself.

    One more thing, preloaded music. how in the H*LL do you delete this monsters?! Because i think it really sucks to have something in there that you don’t use and its just wasting space. Tried every possible way to delete it without using 3rd party software (Because most of them are not really FREE, and you need the full version for the full functionality like MobiMB and it’s not guaranteed to remove them anyway). Tried using NOKIA PC SUITE, and the files don’t show. so, how can you right-click on them and have a look at properties to uncheck the ‘Read Only’ checkbox? tried moving the files, but because it’s a “System File” it is not allowed. Tried deleting the whole folder, again effort failed because guess what? it’s a “System File.” Tried renaming so maybe it can be deleted and do you know what happened? Care to take a guess? yep! effort failed because of what? “A System File.” i understand if people are being paranoid about piracy but if you don’t want people to pirate your “music” at least leave an option to delete it. it’s not that good anyway. i hate to say it but of all the nokia phones that i had over the years, this is the first phone i came across that is NOT USER-FRIENDLY.

    Hi all!

    I have just one more easy methode to make playlist on the nokia 5300 and for 6300 to.

    The music player use the id3v1 tag to group mp3 : by artist, by albums , bye genre and composer .

    You just have to edit the mp3 id3v1 tag using an editor like winamp to let ure music player group your music for you and simply access it through the music library from th music player option menu ;)

    Be sure to diseable the id3v2 tag when editing your mp3 Tag.

    You can use for example the composer tag to name your playlist ;)

    Hope i help .

    Thank’s

    I have purchased the 5610, the User’s Guide that came with it says to use the “nokia-asia.com” site, so im assuming its the “Asia Pacific” model. I live in the United States and i use T-Mobile. I have gotten the T-Mo VPN, T-Zones, T-Mo MMS, and T-Mo Web settings from T-Mobile. I CANT get Yahoo! Go to work. My regular Web icon in the Menu lets me go to any website i want, but i dont have ANY IM client installed otherwise (besides Yahoo! Go which does NOT work). I also cannot get the Opera Mini Browser to work.

    -I run Yahoo! Go and it asks me to Allow Network Access, once. I select yes and it shows me the troubleshooting steps which i have already went thru.

    -I Run Opera Mini and after putting in an address and hittin “enter” it says that there is an error, and to perform the connection test. I do that and it says it cannot connect to the internet and to contact my service provider, which i have done and they dont know what to tell me, except its an UNsupported device :(
