Ramadan Applications for Your Mobile Phone (Java Applications)

Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic Calendar, is considered as one of the holiest months of the year. And by the end of the eighth month people prepare to embrace this holy month for fasting.

The Quran (97:1) states that it was revealed "on the night of determination," which Muslims generally observe on the night of 26-27 Ramadan.

During this Holy month therefore, the Muslim takes himself more assiduously to the reading of the Holy Book of Allah, the standing miracle of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW), the miracle which he stated would remain to testify to the authenticity of Allah's message even after he, Muhammad (S.A.W.) passed away.

As you observe the Holy month of Ramadan, here are a wide selection of applications that will help you experience this special season as it happens. You can access them all at the Ovi Store by simply selecting an application from the ones listed below and clicking on the download button displayed on that page.

So.. in the month of Ramadan, there is nothing wrong if we use mobile phones as a means of worship to remember that mobile phones are always things we take with us wherever we go. Here are some tips for our mobile phones can function optimally as a means of worship run during fasting.

1.Filling Application Qur'an

One common practice (or may be for some people) for running fast is to read the Qur'an. Read Koranic's also can be done through mobile phones, especially mobile java and operating system on it. Actually there are many applications for mobile Qur'an java, from a free to paid.. I only recommend two.

1. PocketQuran which can be downloaded at wap.pocketquran.com.

2. QuranReaderArabic, can be downloaded here.

2. Listen MP3 Qur'an

To listen to the mp3 of the Qur'an, you can visit http://rosyidi.com/mp3-al-quran/ . Mp3 files of the Holy Qur'an there especially for the chapter-long chapters have been divided into several parts, to be more easily downloaded over the phone.

3. Application Collection Hadist (Prophet's word)

5. Application Support Going home (Mudik)

In the last of Ramadan or after it Muslim people usually plan on back home to parent's home in the village or friends & family's home in another city or country. If you plan on going home / back home, you can use applications that do not get lost Compass, Compass 4.1 download application here

Travel forth would certainly be easier if we had memorized all the route-the route, but if not then memorized we can use the navigation GPS. As an alternative route if your phone does not support the GPS can use Google Maps, download the application via the address google.com / GMM.

Beneath it all, there is many Islamic application that you can use it in ramadan and in another ramadan like: Qiblah Direction (Show the direction of ka'bah in Mecca from your place) Zakah Calculator (An interactive feature to work out your contribution to charity with updated rates for gold, silver and currency), Hajj and Umrah (An easy-to-use hand-held guide that offers information on places to visit during the pilgrimage. Mozzaker (An easy way-to remember your god/Allah anytime and anywhere)

Tips How to make Your Mobile Phone as a Modem

Select The Mobile Phone For Internet Connection
Firstly you can check that the mobile phone you are using is capable of handling an internet connection. Some mobiles are not provided with internet browser software but they are capable of handling an internet connection, so it's better to go through the user's manual provided at the time of purchase. If not you can also visit the mobile phone's web page and get its details.

Select An ISP
Choose your internet service providers as per your choice, taking into consideration the rates and speed of connection. Once you have chosen your internet service provider, you need to call your internet service provider and notify them. This is usually a toll free number.
You can use any of the search engines (such as Google) to get the full contact details of your ISP provider.

Subscribe To An ISP
Once you have contacted the internet service providers they will either give you a subscription form or a contact number. Then you will be asked to send a short message via SMS to activate the internet on your mobile phone. You will be replied to by the internet service providers within 24 hours.

Save The Settings From Your ISP
At first you will receive a Welcome SMS for subscribing to your chosen ISP. After that you will receive two settings, one of live internet connection and the other of MMS. On receiving these settings your mobile phone will ask you either to install the settings or to decline. Click on install. In a very few minutes the settings will be installed.

Edit Your Username And Password

After installation you will receive another sms confirming that you have received the settings. Now go to the settings option from your mobile phone and enter into the internet connection setting. Select the installed settings (settings will preferably have ISP name chose by you) and click on edit. Enter your user name and password, the remaining field will already be filled. Now click on save.

Use The Internet On Your Mobile Phone

Now turn-off your mobile phone and re-start it. On the desktop screen you will see either a globe, or G, or some symbol related to an internet connection notifying you that it is active. Now go to the internet browser profile and select the name of your ISP profile and click OK. Go to the enter address option, enter your required URL, and enjoy!

Tips for buying second Mobile phone

If you have plenty of extra money in your pocket, you can buy anything you like. However, it's wise to know that so many brand new cell phones or hardly used phones are cheaply threw or stolen and resold to second hand store. Sometimes you should know that buying a second hand cell phone will save you a lot of money. Needless to say, there are some seemingly authentic dealers who turn out to be quite dishonest both about the age, the origin and the condition of the phone. Just to help everyone, here is a handy list of items to check when buying a second hand phone
Firstly, check IMEI.The IMEI is a code that identifies each phone. No two phones have the same number and manufacturers use this number to verify stolen phones and the amount of warranty that your phone has. Check that the IMEI number on the phone corresponds to the number on the box and receipts. If the numbers differ, there could be several reasons. The first is that the phone is a stolen one or the phone had been sent for servicing and had the main board replaced. Both situations are warning signs of a problematic phone.
Secondly, examine the original receipt.Get a receipt from the seller. If it comes from a reputable retail outlet, then you do not have to worry much. The receipt will be able to tell you when the phone is bought and how much warranty is left. Phones usually have only 1 year warranty. However if you see a receipt that is of dubious origin, be very wary. The receipt might be faked to make the phone look younger than it actually is. It might even be from a second hand dealer trying to sell off the phone again.
Closely inspect the exterior.This step is rather simple and should give you an idea of how old the phone is. Wear and tear will occur. Usually this means the buttons' paint will peel off. For PDA phones, the paint near the Stylus slot will also peel off. Ensure that the condition is what you expect to pay for. Ratings by sellers are very subjective therefore when no photos are uploaded, buy only when satisfied of the condition.
Test the keypad. Press all the buttons many times. Phones should be able to withstand multiple presses without giving away.
Do a detailed check of the functions. After you are done with the exterior, it is time to check the phone itself. Try every function that the phone has. A laptop or another phone will come in handy at this time.
Is there scratches on the display? Check the LCD display. Dead pixels are rare in phones unlike LCD monitors. But for phones, try to see if there are scratches on the screen. Scratches are expensive to repair and most people should buy a lcd screen protector to ensure the high resale value of their phone.
Check moving parts.Some phones have sliders, flippers. Try them to test if they are flimsy. Moving parts tend to be easily damaged by drops and frequent use.
How long is battery life? Batteries drop in performance as they age. However even a second hand phone should not use more than 10% of its battery in the time you are testing. This point is hard to check and the best solution is to get a personal warranty from the seller so that you can test the battery life later.
One last thing... Is there a Warranty? Get the warranty card. See if it has been sent in. Some manufacturers will not honor their warranty if the card has not been sent in within a few days of purchase. Some brands will also have their users register their warranty online. Prior to meeting the seller, get the IMEI number and do a warranty check online. Also ask the seller for a 7 days personal warranty so that you have time to interact and ensure that the phone is in working condition.
This is unlikely to be an exhaustive list of what to check when buying a second hand phone. However, you stick to the tips above, it is difficult to get ripped off.
