I NEED a tip for my sidekick.. Whenever I put it in my pocket.. Dust gets into the screen. Anyone else have this problem?
no, but i can tell you how to fix it.. pay close attention..
open up your sidekick box, remove sidekick carrying case, place sidekick into carrying case, clip on belt, vwalla!
lol
^^ lol ^^
I also hate using that cheap looking thing, for my SK3. I don't use it. I hope they come out with a clip for it soon. By the way, thanks for the tips, everyone!
there is a clip that is not the one that came out with it, its a magnetized version of the horizontal one for the sidekick 2, but it is rather uncomfortable if you wear tight jeans and annoying
(Here another trick)
While playing mp3 music, go to your email and play a song downloaded from sidekicktones.com, for instance.
Get an acapella mp3 in your phone, like (the game) flowing, no music, play the song. Have a instrumental downloaded from sidekicktones.com in your enail. Play the acapella mp3 song, go to your email and play the insrumental. Now you can listen to a remix of a song like no other...

A lot of people with sidekick 3's don't know this, but now you can upload pictures onto myspace your page from your phones photo album. All you have to do is the exact same thing you do on the regualar computer, log on and press add/edit photos, then upload photo. Once you press upload, then you want to press browse, it takes you to your photo album on your phone. Then you can upload the one you choose!

HEY GUYS, I KNOW WHO EVER OWNS A SIDEKICK, IS GOING TO GET THERE SCREEN DUSTY OR SCRATCHED UP AND IT IS THE WORST WHEN IT GETS SCRATCHED UP, LOOKS HORRIBLE AND MAKES YOU MAD CAUSE IT HAS A SCRATCH....FUCK THAT CARRYING CASE, HERES WHAT YOU DO...GET ONE OF THOSE SCREEN COVERS, LIKE THE ONES THEY USE FOR PSPs AND PLACE IT ON YOUR SIDEKICK, I USE THEM FOR MY SK2 FOR 2 YEARS NOW AND NOT ONE SCRATCH, WHO CARES IF IT LOOKS WIERD, OR HAS AIR POCKETS, IT WONT MATTER CAUSE YOUR SCREEN IS SAFE
FORGOT...SOME SITES WHEN YOU GO TO DISPLAY AN ALL WHITE OR BLACK SCREEN FOR THE SITE, WHICH MEANS ITS NOT DISPLAYING THE WORDS.....PRESS MENU--A, IT WILL HIGHLITE THE WORDS AND MAKE IT VISABLE, GO TO WWW.CKYALLIANCE.COM TO TEST IT ON THAT SITE TO SEE WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT

I need help to changing my ringtone;
I can follow up to the part where I select menu and setting but it says select general and my sk3 doesn't say general
does anyone know what to do?
Hidden Game (SnowBored)-Go to "Settings", then "About Sidekick3", then press and hold Menu,shift,and 8 buttons at the same time. Then release and the game will come up.
Press the trackball to control the guy in Snowbored game.
holy hell, to change your ringtone you click the phone icon THEN menu>settings>general
you noob lol
anymore question im me on aim.. GTconcept05
what an idiot...lol
SK noob nerd
fuckin noobies
Don't know if this is a tip or trick but I figured out the the grey panels on the phone are removable thus proving that in the future there will be multi color panels available for the sidekick3 to customize the phone without buying those fruity gel things
Don't know if this is a tip or trick but I figured out the the grey panels on the phone are removable thus proving that in the future there will be multi color panels available for the sidekick3 to customize the phone without buying those fruity gel things
lol ^ to figure that out, he must have dropped his phone then they popped off.. i dont want to break my phone to see if you are bluffing or not..
how do you remove the panels?
yeah, it works
i just used my fingernail
Take a screenshot
plus plus top right shoulder button
When your Sidekick 3 is activating press Menu and l. It skips the activation, but you don't get the "G" that is usually next to the reception bars. i don't know why.
Holy hell u r all so awsome. Iv learned soo much about my phone. Thank god for this website, or I'd never know this shit! Thanx again everyone!
Yea adding to the removable panels if u remember seeing an all black sidekick3 or a red one that look like "special edition" ones they only have those panels on them making them look sexier!

Does any1 kno how 2 transfer pics from ur email 2 ur photo album on the sk3 yet???
An does any1 kno anything on the update dats suppose 2 come out in Aug.
COOL TIP:
Speaking to someone that's boring? A monotonous voice? Then look no further... when they're speaking on the phone, head over to the "music player" and choose a song to play. You can't adjust the volume while you're on the call, so make sure it is ok before you pick up. You can listen to music in the background as they speak... it's pretty cool.
menu+shift+right shoulder button
screenshots
Man I hate the fact that u can do picture transfer from ur email to ur pics. I thought if I downloaded artpallete like it sed on sidetones to do in order to save screenpage, I would be able to transfer it over. Does anyone know how to use artpalatte to transfer emailed pics to ur sk onto ur album?
Holla @ me denzel25 on aim
hold menu+ send OR end= page up/ page down
send=up

its there a way to do picture txts?
if you want a picture from an email in your gallery, all you have to do is foward it to another email acount, save a copy on your computer, hook your sk3 up via usb, the past the phot on in the picture folder on the memory card of your kick.
simple!!!
wuts a screenshot?
i dont know if u guys know its nothing bigg but i did it on accident today

Once I get a voicemail the indicator goes off telling me I have received a new message every 2 minutes. It won't stop until I actually call my voicemail.

This is for changing your jump screen (your jump screen is the two people in the background of your phone)
www.sidekickwallpapers.com/index.php?static=instructions
If you go to the site above, and scroll down to the end, there is a video that you can watch. The person in the video explains to you how to change the jump screen.
www.sk3themes.com
This website is the themes for you to download to your sidekick.
Please note: To be able to follow these procedures, you must have a T-Mobile Sidekick 3. Also, you must make sure you have your USB cord to connect your sidekick with your computer.
Hope this helped :)
