Remote Desktop using your Nokia e71

Now you can VNC to remote desktop using your nokia e71. There are two(2) applications that I had tried working properly on our Nokia e71 :

1) VNC2GO is a VNC client that runs on MIDP-enabled devices. It lets you control any desktop server running a VNC service, from any mobile device that supports Java Midlets, such as mobile phones and PDAs.

You can download it from ;

Location 1: MIDP1.0 Midlet and JAD Installation File

Location 2: MIDP1.0 Midlet and JAD Installation File

2) VNC Viewer is a native Symbian 9.1 SISX client for Nokia S60 3rd Edition mobile devices (Nseries and ESeries) that allows you to establish a TCP/IP connection to any Windows XP/2003 Server computer running a standard VNC server (from realvnc.com) and control it from the mobile phone.

How to connect Nokia e71 SIP to Asterisk?

Today I tried another wonderful feature that built in this Nokia e71, VoIP SIP client. After several testing, it's works! Now, my e71 not only as my mobile phone but also my "mobile office extension phone"! It become an Unified Communication Device with combinations of several features e.g. mobile phone, emails, web browser, extensions phone, instant messenger client etc.

In order to connect your Nokia e71 SIP ( Internet Call ), there are some configurations are needed in your Asterisk Server. You may refers to my sip.conf settings as below :

[1010]
type=friend
secret=1234
qualify=yes
port=5060
pickupgroup=
nat=yes
host=dynamic
dtmfmode=rfc2833
dial=SIP/1010
context=from-internal
canreinvite=no
callerid=device <1010>
call-limit=50

You may also like to configure the "realm" in the sip.conf under [General] context, else you may leave it as default which is "asterisk".

Remember to restart your SIP service to avoid getting Error 400 later in your asterisk debug.

The next step that you need to do is configure your phone ( Make sure there is Internet Connections ).

Step 1:

Go to "Menu"-->"Tools"-->"Settings"-->"Connections"-->"SIP Settings". Then, click on "Options"-->"Add New"

Profile name: <to be defined>
Service profile: IETF
Default access point: <your wifi access point>
Public user name: sip:<SIP user>@<domain or IP address>
Use compression: No
Registration: Always on
Use security: No

[Proxy server]
Proxy server address: sip:<IP address of your asterisk>
Realm: asterisk or <realm of your asterisk>
User name: <SIP user>
Password: <secret>
Allow loose routing: Yes
Transport type: Auto
Port: 5060

[Registrar server]
Registrar server address: sip:<IP address of your asterisk>
Realm: asterisk or <realm of your asterisk>
User name: <SIP user>
Password: <secret>
Transport type: Auto
Port: 5060

Now, you should able to see that your SIP is Registered.

Step 2:

Go to "Menu"-->"Tools"-->"Settings"-->"Connections"-->"internet Telephone Settings". Then, click on "Options"-->"Add New Profile"

Name: <to be defined>
SIP profiles: <previously defined profile>

Try to make an Internet Call by select "Options"-->"Call"-->"Internet Call" after key in the telephone number.

Use your GMail as your Online Storage

There are several ways that you can use your GMail account as your Online Storage. Gmail Drive is one of the third party software to make your Gmail as storage.

GMail Drive is not supported by Google. It allows a user to access a virtual drive stored in a Gmail e-mail account by causing the contents of the Gmail account to appear as a new network share on the user's workstation.

After you installed the GMail Drive, you will find a GMail Drive in your windows explorer. Right click on this new drive and choose Login As. Enter your Gmail username and password when prompted. It is recommended that you create a new Gmail account for this purpose so that you can keep your existing Gmail account safe. After logging in, you can now copy, paste and create folders in this new Gmail Drive just like any regular Windows folder.

Besides using GMail Drive, you may also use GSpace Firefox extension to access and utilize the GMail account as online storage.

**Try at you own risk ** These applications are yet to "certified" and still under testing.
