Lumiappaday #184: Dino Parade demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800

| May 17, 2012 | Reply

To defend yourself against dinosaurs, you have to use a range of household appliances. You’ll have to balance out which appliances to get, or which current ones [...]

Just a quick update- the Global variant of the Lumia 900 (Finland) has showed up on Navifirm running Tango (Mango Refresh); as far as I recall the 900 has yet to be released in Finland (supposed to hit shelves the 25th of May if I recall correctly) so hopefully this means it’ll be coming soon to all.

Here Camb078 demoes ‘Task Widgets’ on the Nokia N8 with Belle (the multitasking looks odd now that we’ve seen FP1 no?) Anyway, what you can see in the above screenshot is the widget in action. It looks like the multitasker from N9 as that’s the point of the app – to show you your running [...]

Video: iOS/iPhone style theme by Pizero on Symbian Belle/N8 – iStyle

This is an interesting looking theme. We’ve seen plenty of iPhone style themes and skins for Nokias but I think this is one of the better ones – it’s also nicer than a ‘skin’ because it works with the actual phone UI. It’s just coloured/themed to look more like iOS. Now that might make some [...]

Here is a demo of the Face Unlock app, Facelock for Nokia N9. This isn’t new to Nokias – at least 2 Nokia Worlds ago I remember this app winning the dev contest for this idea and implementation. I’m not sure how this will work with pictures, if like ICS on Android it might be [...]

  Here’s some Nokia Asha adverts from Nokia Gulf that I randomly came across during a revision break. They were uploaded last week though this channel doesn’t seem to be that prominent and doesn’t seem to have been watched a lot.
