Hi there, I think I got what you need! The problem is that you can't switch between the Homescreens just like that! The only option is to "copy" the fourth screen's content onto fifth and then the third onto the fourth and so on and you'll get what you want! So as I said there is no possibility to switch betwwen Homescreens. From my experience, as I already use this phone for almost 9 months, there's no need of five homescreens, you will get "lost" between them! Today I use only 3 homescreens and I'm happy with that. Just for your interest I got: First: Mail widget, shortcuts to Messaging, Web (defaylt), Ovi store, Maps. Second: Music widget, shortcuts to Videos&TV, Pictures, Camera, Search Third: Shortcuts to Drive (Maps), Voice recorder, Notes, Calculator, File manager, Toshl wallet, Stopwatch and Nokia's Energy profiler. I hope it helps for ye!
Thanks a lot for your answer. I thought before of the solution you offered me, but I thought there might be a simpler way to do it. I'm guessing I won't use more than 3 homescreens, just as you're using now. 
I saw the pictures you posted here back in 2011 and they look really good, I mean "really well organized".
As you are using the E6 fur quite a long time now, I would like to ask you another question here: is there a way to make the big clock (the screensaver) to remain permanently lit on the screen, after I lock the keys? A friend of mine has a Nokia C7 and it works for him, but in the case of my E6, that big clock disappears from the screen after a few seconds.
Once again, thank you for your message!

Hi, Good question! But the thing is that C7 works on the older firmware and our phone got Symbian Anna. So, Anna has some funny things that C7 doesn't have and vice versa and in this case E6 doesn't have "permanent clock screensaver". And it shouldn't actualy, because such things sinks down your bettery which is not practical. There are millions of apps that does that function. Trust me, now you want to try all funny things with your phone and you shoud go for it. But then you'll finaly find the real this phone's Mission - to be a Messager, Communicator!
Hello again and thank you very much for your messages.
The C7 has the same Anna, as my E6. Anyway, I think I don't need that clock that badly, after all.
And you are right: I want to try all the funny things on my phone now - I have just got it a couple of days ago .... you know the feeling.

thanx for the compliments! Soon you'll be teaching me when E6 gets Belle!
The answer is no, you can't do this! The only option to customize your keys is set for those four main keys around the navi-pad! It's very easy to find this option through Settings menu.
Probably you would like to assign the shortcut to, for example "Programs", but it is possible to do that on any homescreen. So, the thing is to always get fast access to Menu by pressing a touch-key or a keyboard key.
Hope that helps and ask whenever you need!
Hello again and thanks for your message !
I was mainly refering to the "Menu" soft-key (the right soft-key on the display). It seems odd to me to have both a dedicated key (a physical button) and a touch-screen-button to access the "Menu". Why having two keys with the same function? It's a waste of buttons, so to speak....
This is why I wanted to change the "Menu" soft-key (the one on the display) to something else (to "file manager" or any other function). But I guess I will have to stick to what I have...
There's another downgrade when comparing the E6 to E72 and E71 and maybe you have the solution for this problem. On Nokia E6 I can not (or I don't know how to) save the text messages on the memory card (not on the phone's internal memory). Do you know how I could do that?
If I go to "Menu -> Messaging -> Options -> Settings -> Other" there is no function in there (like it is in case of Nokia E71 and E72) to store the text messages on the memory card. Any solution to this issue ?
As for the breathing light / notification light, I have called today to Nokia Care in my country and they will replace my actual key mat. I will post here picture of the new key mat once I have it replaced.
That would be all for now.
Take care !
PS: Have you seen that Belle at the corner of the street ? 
Hi, Vlad,
I don't agree with you on that. Firstly, soft key is just "nice-to-have" and it's mostly dedicated to the Homesreen as an Options soft key. Seconly physical button has two functions: short-press in the Homescreen view gives you Menu window, short-press again gives you Homescreen again and so on. Then long-press shows up all open apps. So, this button is quite important. And what I said previous, all other shortcuts can be adjusted on the homescreens.
Messaging. I don't know the solution to that issue. I don't like sms, so never cared about this issue.
You want your E6 look like this: /t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/Nokia-E6-doesn-t-hav
It reminds me E72. I guess you realy liked that phone! I think I'll wait a lit longer and then think about changing the navi pad.
P.S. If you meet her again, please introduce me to Belle too!

Yes, I want my E6 to look just like that one.
It reminds me of E72, too. Because it reminds me of E71.
It reminds me of all the other Nokias that I have and that you may see in the picture attached.
I met Belle again - she said she'll come to us next month !
