Nokia E55 support

When you are typing something on your device, for example creating new text message, select Options > Input Options > Activate prediction or Deactivate prediction or press the # key (Shift key) quickly twice. This will either activate or deactivate the predictive text input.

To lock (or unlock) the keypad manually in the home screen, press first the left selection key and then the right selection key. Or press the power key briefly, and select Lock keypad.

The keypad of your device locks automatically after the keypad autolock period. To change the autolock period go to Menu > Ctrl. panel > Settings > General > Security > Phone and SIM card > Keypad autolock period. 

When the keypad is locked, you can still answer incoming calls and make calls the official emergency numbers programmed into your device.

Note: With the Nokia E5-00, the power key is the same key as the End key. When pressing the end key inside an application, it will cause the device to go into the homescreen, instead of the usual options to change the profiles and lock the device.

Select Menu > Ctrl. panel > Settings > General > Personalization > Notification lights.

When you miss a call or receive a message, the scroll key starts blinking to indicate the event. To set the blinking time and which events you want to be notified, select Notification light.

When you do not use the device for a certain period of time, the scroll key starts blinking slowly as if it was breathing. To turn the breathing light on or off, select Standby br.light > Breathing light.

Select Options > Input Options > Writing language in any text editor. You can change the Primary writing language and set or change the secondary writing language.

When you are using the predictive text writing input you can change the writing language by pressing the Shift and the SYM keys.

Nokia E55 device, software version 033.002 contains an issue that might cause the Music player to start after ending a phone call. This appears only if the Music player has been switched on and a piece of music is paused when receiving a phone call.

The problem does not appear when the Music Player has been switched off or a piece of music has been stopped when receving a phone call.

Improvements have been planned for future versions.

Yes, your Nokia device has a compact qwerty keyboard with smaller size than conventional qwerty keyboard. The compact qwerty keyboard offers the benefits of full keyboard layout with smallest possible size.

The Compact qwerty keyboard supports the predictive text input with

• A built-in dictionary.
• An automatic word completion.
• A candidate list.
• A dual writing language.

You can also use the compact qwerty keyboard with traditional text input mode.

Select Menu > Help > Keyb. tutor.. The tutorial teaches you to use the device's keyboard through interactive tasks.

When using the compact qwerty keyboard without predictive text input you need to press the keys once for the first letter and twice for the second. 

Enter the number with long press on number key. Or by pressing the function key followed by the number key.

Numbers, special characters, and other alternative characters can be entered by pressing the key along with the Funtion key.

You can format your device by typing *#7370# in standby mode. Before the device is reset, you may need to provide the lock code. The default lock code is 12345.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

• Formatting the device will permanently erase all user data and settings as well as add-on applications and operator specific settings.
• If you have made a backup of the device data, the data can be restored from the backup after formatting but some add-on applications can have restrictions that they are not restored from the backup.
• If you use formatting to repair faulty behaviour of the device, restoring the backed-up data files may restore the unwanted behaviour as well. In that case, a partial restore may resolve the situation.
• The contents of the SIM card and memory card (MMC) are not erased during formatting. Note, however, that in some device models (e.g. Nokia N8-00, E7-00, E6-00 and X7-00) the internal mass memory E: will be formatted in this situation. It is therefore important that you back up all your data from the E: mass memory before resetting the device. Use Nokia Suite to back up the contents to your PC.
  

To check the unique Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) Media Access Control (MAC) address that identifies your Nokia phone, enter *#62209526# in the idle mode (or with touch screen phones after opening the dialler).
