If you want to know when someone has received your text message on their phone use this code start your message with *0# This is similar to "Delivery Reports" feature available on most phones but you will receive a details text rather than a confirmation note on screen.It will not show up on their message and a text will be sent to your phone when it has arrived in theirs. Best to leave a space before you start your first word in the message. You wont know when they read the message but you will know when they received it!

NOTE : This feature has only been tested on UK phones Networks.

There are three basic ways to get more and better themes for your N95.

A) You can download free themes from websites like
Mobile9 Zedge Symbian themes Rannat BabiNokia Mmc Forums

B) You can create your own themes free online with Ownskin.com
Its completely free and makes creating themes pretty easy, you can upload your picture, change the colours of the text and battery bars etc. under the advanced options. It creates a .sis file which you can send to your phone via cable etc. You can also share your theme with other users. Its an easy way to make themes, and well worth trying, though i do find it a bit basic

Turn Off the Camera Capture tone, Well if you dont want people to know you're taking a picture of them or you just don't like extra noises, there are two simple ways to remove the sound the camera makes when taking a picture.
1. In your Profiles Menu/ Profiles/ General/ Personalise/ Warning tones/ set to OFF. The obvious drawback is that you will no longer receive warning tones like Low battery alerts.
2. The other way is to select the Silent profile or create a profile called "Secret Camera" etc. and adjust the Warning tone to OFF.

Notes:

This trick is not available when you are using the 8GB version

The camera has 4 basic capture sounds which are changed by activating the camera and selecting Options/ Settings/ camera tone. There is a program available to turn off camera tones but for me it easier to turn off the Warning tones. It is possible to change the camera tones but it is a complicated procedure requiring additional software.

To stop the Automatic flash :
Activate Camera, scroll down the side icons to Flash mode and select off, the automatic setting is useful but often unwanted in lower light levels.

There was a bug in the earlier firmware version 10.0.0.018 that set the picture sharpness to HARD. To check your setting is Normal: Activate Camera, scroll down the side icons to Sharpness and select Normal.

Well by now I'm sure u realise that the battery life on the N95 is pretty poor, Its fine if you only send the occasional text but as a multimedia device! Well its a joke! There is no way around it find your old N70, N80 chargers and leave one at home,at work, in the car etc. First off don't waste your time buying a slightly larger battery which are available on the Internet, The N95 comes with a standard BL-5F Li-Ion battery with 950mAh other non Nokia batteries have 1000mAh but this increase in size is so small u will never notice it and more importantly these batteries are mostly Li-Poly and have had problems in the past with exploding!

There are a few good basic tips however to get the best from your battery, Most are common sense but its worth checking you've done them:

1. Turn Off 3G Network
The best power save is by turning off 3G network searching (based on U.K reception) To do this Tools :: Settings :: Phone :: Network :: Network mode, Set to "GSM" not Dual

2. Custom Packet Data
Packet data connection set this to "when needed"Connection" To do this Tools :: Settings :: Connection :: Packet data, Set Packet data connection to "When needed"

3. Turn Off WLAN Scanning
Make sure your WLAN scanning is turned off, To do this Tools :: Settings :: Connection :: Wireless LAN :: Show WLAN availability , set to "Never", dont worry you can still connect to wireless routers at home, it will do it automatically when you select "web and walk" for example.
If you use Wlan a lot the its a good idea to turn down the Wlan transmit power to 10mW To do this Tools :: Settings :: Connection :: Wireless LAN :: Options(top left key) / Advanced settings (Ignore the warning select yes) scroll down to TX power level and select 10mW

4. Animated Screensavers
I don't see much point in having them running when your not there anyway, and u can save a bit of battery just selecting Date and time, To do this Tools :: Settings :: General :: Personalisation :: Themes :: Power saver and select "Date and Time"

5. Reduce Screen Display Times
To do this Tools :: Settings :: General :: Personalisation :: Display :: Power saver time set to 1 minute (minimum)

6. Reduce Light Time Out
To do this Tools :: Settings :: General :: Personalisation :: Display :: light time out, Set to your preference.

7. Turn Bluetooth Off
Its really easy to turn bluetooth On and Off, just use the preset voice command, just hold down top right key and say "bluetooth" when prompted repeat to turn off, to search for devices you will need to locate the application from the Menu

8. Always Check Task Manager
Don't leave applications running by accident, check by holding down Menu key, select the unwanted app. then from the options select exit.

9. Leave The Camera
Don't leave the camera on unless you are using it, obvious but its better to open /close than leave open.
