hi guys, i remember when my old nokia n70 and n95 were in the screensaver mode info such as the time, missed calls and any sms messages were displayed. however with the n97 none of this info is shown. anyway to change this? i hate having to keep unlocking my phone to see if i got any missed calls or messages. thanks 😮

Unless there is any additional software that can be downloaded, I've not found a way of doing it.

Did you know that the notification/breathing light can ge set to indicate missed calls and messages?

I didn't know that. Which light?

Hoping a firmware update will add this. Maybe v20? We'll have to wait and see i suppose

The menu key light...

Menu > Settings > Phone > Notification lights > Standby br. light (set to on) >Back >Notification light > Events notified (select which events you need... Missed call, New Message, New e-mail)

You could also try installing Dr Jukka's KeyLock Clock app. (unsigned) from here:-

http://www.drjukka.com/KeyLockClock.html

This shows a large screen clock, as well as day and date, when the phone is locked and you press the Menu key. It also shows if there are any SMS waiting. The time the display stays on is configurable and it can also stay on whilst charging, with a dimmer light if you choose.

Hope this helps! 😊
