Backup SMS for Sony Ericsson Phones

You will be able to backup your SMS on your Phone using the Sony Ericsson PC Suite. But you will not be able to move the messages back to your phone from the computer. So you just keep the backup of the SMS on your computer only.

Please take note that you must use Phone Mode for Connections. This allowed the PC Suite to access all Phone Contents.

 

Click on Text Messages on the left side bar. You will be able to access all your sms on your phone.

Backup SMS to PC Suite

• Click on the message you want to backup
• Right Click and choose Copy To
• Choose the Phone Profile 
• SMS is now backup to this Profile

My Phone Profile is My W705 and I will see all the SMS I backup to this profile. I will be able to backup SMS here and then delete it on my Phone.

Red and White Car Park Lot

Red and White Combination(RWC) Car Park Lot has been in the news and also discussed by Net Citizens on the internet. These RWC are not available at all car parks but at certain car parks where short term parking is highly sought after.

RWC Car Park Lot allowed you to park at the lot during non Season Car Parking Hours. This is usually 7AM to 7PM but the rules for season parking hours  for some car parks may be different. Please check up the parking sign board before you park your car at the RWC Lot.

HDB Customer Officers and HDB Car Park Offices are also not very clear about this special car park lots. Once you ask them about these RWC, they will still thought you are referring to the Red and White Parking Lot. I guess the HDB Staffs are not yet align to the rules. This worry me as I and other car users may be fine by the parking warden if they are unclear about the ruling and find us parking in the RWC lot.

I will update my blog if I find any parking warden fine our cars for parking in a RWC outside season parking hours. Subscribers may send me an email with your parking fine ticket no if this happens to you also.

Please take note HDB has not updated their website with this info at the time of the publishing of my post.

NTUC Food Fare Rental Rises #1

NTUC Food Fare@Admiralty has seen a few new stalls again. Out of interests I ask my favourite stalls why the previous owners want to give up their store. Is it beacause of bad business or venturing into new grounds? I found out that NTUC Food Fare has risen the stall rentals once again and some stall holders has chosen to give up their business due to the high rental.

There are a few stores who now charges 20 cents for package food. This includes the Chicken Rice Store, Wan Tun Noodle Store and the Fish Soup Store. These costs are pass to the consumers and I think that 20 cents for packaging is just too expensive. If you happen to be in Toa Payoh Industrial area, a piece of these packaging is less than 10 cents. Furthermore if you buy in bulk, the cost may be even lower.

NTUC Food Fare is actually giving discount to NTUC Members, this looks encouraging. Some stores will offer a 20 cents discount on a promotion dish for NTUC Members only. But on the other end, NTUC Food Fare is also driving the food costs up by rising the stall rentals.

Best Bargains at NTUC FoodFare@Admiralty

Deluxe Breakfast comprising coffee,2 eggs and a slice of bread for S$1.20 for NTUC Members only

Hard Reset LG KC910 Renoir

You may need to hard reset your LG KC910n Renoir if u have any problem with the key. But minimum your touch screen must be working in order to do that.

You can do a factory reset by entering the code

This may rectify most of your Renoir Problems. But if your touchscreen is faulty, then you need to visit a LG Service Centre.

Sony Ericsson Satio

Sony Ericsson Satio is still the best camera phone on the market even with the release of Xperia X10. Satio has got Red Eye Reduction and Touch Focus but these two functions are missing from Xperia X10. In addition, Satio is using LED Photo Light & Xenon Flash which allows photo taking in poor lighting conditions while Xperia X10 is using Photo Light only.

Satio has the combination of the Cyber-Shot Camera Phones and Walkman Music Phones. Previously Sony Ericsson has market them as 2 different types. Satio is a 12.1 Megapixel camera and the camera recharges quickly so that you can takes one photo after another. This is an advantage over the Samsung Pixon 12 M8910 slow charging camera. It also equipped with Best Pic, Smile Detection and Photo Fix.

Satio also has the function of Walkman Phones. I assured you will be happy with the music quality. But the main defects about this is the missing 3.5 mm jack.
