Download eBooks using fget
Sometimes, downloading a file directly on our mobile phone sounds complicated to others. That depends on the mobile phone we are using, depends on the mobile’s operating system, depends on the memory are the common reasons.
There was a time that I need to download an ebook file but I’ve just formatted my mobile. I have limited access to computer at that time. Most ebooks comes in big file size, sometimes downloading them through your built-in browser (depends on the size) would cost you unreasonable price. If you’re unlucky, the connection will stop and made your download incomplete.
Back Up Your Contacts
Need to transfer your contacts from one mobile phone to another? Most of the time, I’ve encountered people saying that they’ve accidentally deleted an important contact or in some way they’ve lost their contacts. It made me wonder, they’re using a 3G phone or maybe a symbian 60 phone and yet they haven’t heard of this mobile application.
We cannot use mobile as a form of communication if we don’t have contacts on our phone book, right? Just like our mobile files, we also need to back them up. Contacts are more important than our files, copying them on our sim card wasn’t enough. Sim cards have limited memory.
This application wasn’t new to me, I’ve been using this mobile application for a long time and haven’t found any application better than this one. Backup Contacts v1.10 is a freeware and long time available in the market.
Import All – retrieve contacts from your backup file
Export All – back up your entire contacts to a file
Import Sel - retrieve a selected contact
Export Sel – back up a selected contact
Receiv File – receive file via bluetooth
Send File – send backup file via bluetoothHow to back up contacts:
- Open Bkup Contacts, click “export All”
- Choose “to Local File”, choose the drive or directory you want the file to be saved. I save them both on memory card and phone memory.
- Type the filename, click ok.
- If you open your file manager or FExplorer, you already have your backup named as “yourchosenbackupname.vcf”

Look Mom, I’ve Made My Own Java eBook
Yesterday’s entry regarding java eBooks made me wonder if I could really made adjustments on java eBook. The answer is NO. You cannot made adjustments to a converted java eBook BUT if you have the original txt format file, you can make changes on how your eBook would be. My conclusion yesterday proved me right… that the quality of the original source file is a plus factor to obtain a great output. I’ve made my own eBook with few trials and errors. I guess, the java eBook file I’ve downloaded before didn’t used the file conversion software I’ve discovered yesterday or maybe he didn’t made enough configuration on converting the file.
I came across to this mjBook 4.7 software last night, it is a recently updated free software. At first, I thought it was a mobile application, I’ve transfered the zip file right away on my 6630 last night. Silly! Anyway, I’ve used it this morning and run a few trials. I happen to have a txt format file so I used it. I’ve mentioned from my earlier entry that this java format eBook doesn’t need a reader, it is an executable file meaning an eBook is equivalent to one mobile application. I’ve modified the font, font color, font style, background color, and icon. I feel great with this software. On mobile, you can still make some settings configurations.
This software can make java eBook compatible with all java enabled devices. So, mobile application compatibility is not a problem anymore with this software. When converting a file make sure that you choose the right mobile resolution. With this software, java eBook is indeed NOT a No-No to me.
