Here's step by step how installing application (*.sis) file to your s60 phone's

1. Use Bluetooth, infrared file transfer, or a USB connection to copy the .sis file to your phone. If you do not have access to either, send the file to your phone as an e-mail attachment.
2. Open your phone's inbox and select the .sis file you just transferred. This should start the installation. Some phones come with PC software to handle installations, you may of course also use this. some of s60 phone's (N-7650, N-3650, N-3660, N-Ngage) doesnt have File manager to manage the file installation. u need installing File manager Before, like as FExplorer or X-Plorer.

How to installing FExplorer?

1. If your FExplorer is in sis format u can follow step 1 and 2 on top
2. If your phone doesnt have connection, u need extract sis file to application file by unmakesis software.
3. Copy file extraction (include directory)  to your MMC using Card Reader to directory E:\System\apps\

If your phone has very little free memory left, you will likely get an out-of-memory message during installation.
Try removing unnecessary files from your phone. If you have already received the message "Saving file to Installer", you can safely delete the Opera .sis file from your inbox, which should free enough memory to finish the installation.

Tip: Installing to a memory card is recommended, as it will leave more memory for other applications.

I have collected and  listed some secret codes on S60 phones to display various useful information.
To enter theses codes, the phone must be in the idle screen (not in the menu screen). What is idle screen? This is the screen where you see the operator name, date, time, battery level, signal strength and some other stuff. You can switch between idle screen and menu screen using Menu key.

• *#0000# - Display the software version, the date when the software was built and the phone model. In some cases, the phone model is not the one used by marketing. It is the internal model used inside Nokia.
  
• *#06# - Display IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identify) of your phone.
• *#7780# (*#rst0*) - This will soft reset your phone, all data, like contacts, calendar and notes, are not removed. It will only reset the phone settings, such as profiles, themes and shortcuts. The default lock code is 12345.
• *#7370# - Hard reset, all data, like contacts, calendar and notes, will be removed.
• There is another key combination which is used to hard reset the phone (similar to #*7370). It is useful in some cases, for example when the phone cannot reboot. The trick is by switching off the phone then press and hold Call key (Green key) + * key + 3 key + power button for a couple of seconds. This key combination doesn’t work on some S60 phones (s60 ver1)
• *#2820# (*#BTA0#) - Display the Bluetooth device address of your phone.
• *#62209526# (*#MAC0WLAN) - Display the MAC address of the WLAN adapter. This is available only in the newer devices that support WLAN
• *#67705646# This will clear the LCD display(operator logo).
• *#746025625# Sim clock allowed status.
• *#7328748263373738# resets security code.

All of the key combination doesn’t work on some S60 phones depend on symbian OS Version and S60 platform version

S-60 phone's Almost finishes starting up then the screen goes white and it resets - I cant get it to work what can I do?

Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin....
This is known as the N-Gage White Screen of death - WSOD

S60 ver 1 phones don't have a key combination that can be used to reset them on boot. Most other Symbian OS based Nokia S60 phones do have this useful last resort but somewhere in this phones product cycle it was omitted.

Symbian OS phones often need to be reset if they become too low on free memory to operate successfully. They dont like running out of space on the internal memory.

S60 ver 1 phones are particularly susceptible to this since they are often used for games, mp3 files and other large sized download content and Bluetooth in particular can be used to initiate file transfers that will just render the devices useless on next reboot.

How can it be fixed?
How can I reset my phone myself? You cant. The phone needs to be returned to a service centre and have the user memory cleared. This is not the same as having the phones firmware 'flashed'. But flashing the phone also clears the user memory so it does fix the problem. Most phone unlocking software can clear the user memory without needing to flash the phone.

Its a good idea to insist on the latest release at this point.

How can I stop it happening again?

Dont transfer large files over Bluetooth
Do install any software on the MMC not on the internal memory
Dont install hacks for themes or skins or fonts
Dont store a lot of email, contacts, call log info
