Some friends mailed me asking how to change the left and right soft selection key shortcuts in the active standby mode. Also how to change the active standby applications. Here are the answers.

By default, the left selection key () is shortcut to Messaging and the right selection key () to Clock. But you can change the shortcut at any time to other useful applications.

Nokia doesn’t limit the shortcut to default Nokia applications, but we can launch any installed application from the soft key shortcuts. To change the shortcut,

Go to Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Phone -> Standby Mode

Here you can see the Left Selection Key and Right Selection key.

Select that option and choose the application you want. For eg: I have selected the SpotOn (to make my phone a torch lite) as the left selection key and the right left selection key as Clock.

Other options you can change here is the Active stand by mode status. You can turn it off or on. You can also decide which applications to be listed in the standby mode by going to the option Active standby apps. You can select six applications for the active standby mode.

Enjoy
