A Quick Way To Force A New Line In Text Messages

August 2nd, 2007 • Related • Filed Under

It’s amazing the little tricks you learn that turn out to be so useful. I send a lot of text messages via my Nokia phone and one feature that annoys me is that I have to go into a seperate menu to force a new line.

Thanks to Darla Mack, I’ve stumbled onto an amazing hidden shortcut. If you have a Nokia S60 (i.e. a smartphone) handset then if you enter three zeros then the entry cursor will jump down to the next line. Try it and you’ll see!

It works on almost all cellphones (three times zero on nokia’s, two times space on other phones).

It even works on my ancient Nokia 3510i
