This is a hidden menu in your Nokia Phone.
If you want to active it you'll have to reprogram
some chips inside of your phone.

5. If you have v4.33 or 4.73 then change adress 03B8 from 00 to FF.
6. If you have v5-24 then change 0378 from 00 to FF.
7. Write the new data to the EEProm and solder it back into the mobile phone.
8. Power on your phone and you should have menu number 10.
The Network Monitor gives you the following informations:
• [ Carrier number
• [ MS RX level in dBM
• [ Received signal quality
• [ MS TX power level
• [ C1 (path loss criterion, used for cell selection and reselection).
The range is -99 to 99
• [ RLT (Radio Link timeout)

• [ Information on the network parameters
• [ TMSI (temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity)

• [ MNC (Mobile Network Code)
• [ LAC (location Area Code)
• [ Ciphering (on/off)
• [ Hopping (on/off)
• [ DTX (on/off)

Another way for activating the Nokia Network Monitor Menu:

The main screen will now be showing but a space appears on the screen.
(you can't see it)

7. Use the down arrow to move the cursor to the left side
of the numbers and the space (Down arrow twice).
8. Now enter 6 digits and press the call button.
Wait for a few seconds, the screen should start to flash and reboots.

THE JAMES BOND TRICK
If you short-circuit theleft middle and right pins on the bottom of the
phone with all connections touching each other, the Nokia software hangs!
The profile "Headset" will be activated. Before you do this just activate
the "Automatic Answer" in the headset profile and set the ringing volume to "Mute".
Now you can use your phone for checking out what people are talking about in a room.
Just place it under a table in a room and call it.
The phone receives the call without ringing and you can listen
to what people are saying.
HOW TO GET INFRA-RED WORKING IN WINDOWS
(NOTE THIS WON'T WORK FOR THE 7110)
Installing With Windows 95
1. Enable your IR port (very often disabled in the notebook setup).
Configure windows so that IR Mon is not running so that it detects devices.
2. Reboot (be sure NOT to have IR Mon running)
3. Install NDS. Put any COM port when required.
The install will fail but go till the end.
4. Reboot. Do NOT launch IR Setup.
5. Edit the registry
6. In fact you have only two keys to change in the registry for the
software to work with IR on Win95
7. Before modification:
8. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Nokia\DTP2V3]
"UseIr"=hex:00
"UserPortIR"=""
9. After modification:
10. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Nokia\DTP2V3]
"UseIr"=hex:01
"UserPortIR"="COM2"
11. (if COM2 is your physical IR port)
12. Install PC Composer
13. Reboot
14. Be sure that IR Mon does not run.
The IR port works for the suite and the composer.
