With the introduction of inception, the Harmattan community received the ability to replace system apps with their own versions (the status bar modification was perhaps the most well known). Know, thanks to the help of the community, the stock client has received a UI overhaul, with a dark theme thanks to coderus. Its the same [...]

  I always find these sort of apps interesting as you can see like-minded people’s locations either locally or around the globe. This app called “Connected” can help you find out where the other Nokia N9/N950 users are located. http://my-meego.com/software/applications.php?name=Connected&fldAuto=2063&faq=15 Connect with other people using the same phone.

N950 receives Twitter update; N9 app update coming soon? (Changelog incl.)

| February 23, 2013 | 22 Replies

So earlier in the week, to my absolute surprise, my N950 beeped and gave me an app update for Twitter! I suspected this would be due to Twitter changing their API to version 1.1  last year and making 1.0 support end in the coming weeks. N9 is still not showing anything, but I imagine this [...]

There is always a war of twitter clients on mobile platforms, and although Harmattan has a small user base, there is no shortage of twitter clients at all. Until now, there has been three fairly equal clients: QNeptunea, Tweetian and Rocket. I’ve been lucky enough to take part in the Rocket Beta, and the latest [...]

THP never ceases to amaze me. Just when I thought he had out done himself with apkenv, he has brought the Harmattan community Cyclotron. The app (well mod really) takes the swipe to a new level, by allowing the user to swipe diagonally from the status bar to switch between apps. I can’t really do [...]

Apkenv – Run “some” android apps in Harmattan & Fremantle

First we heard that there would be app compatibility layers for Harmattan. Then Nitdroid came along, and like it did on the N900, it gave us a near-complete version of Android to use on our N9/50s. Well, now we have a compatibility layer of sorts, that allows you to run a very small number of [...]

I was scrolling through Twitter a few weeks ago, and saw a post about Nemo Mobile ( MeeGo 1.3 CE), and a browser it shares with the N9, HeliumReborn. I decided to try it out again, as it had apparently been updated a lot from my last experience. Using it, I thought about SnowShoe, that [...]

Raj shares some news that FireFox for the Nokia N9 has been updated to v15. Sounds about right given FireFox desktop was updated to v15 not too long ago and N9′s version is always soon after that. Also, I’m not sure what this is but the homescreen has been updated to v2.0? Have your received [...]

Honestly, I’m not surprised. The Nitdroid Project managed to get ICS on to our N9s before lots of Android devices were updated or even released with that update, and now, it has happened again. Although no official release has been made, there is a video showing the N9 running the latest iteration of Android, Android [...]

HowTo: Fix Mail For Exchange with Hotmail/Live/Outlook for N9

| August 20, 2012 | 34 Replies

Something that every N9 user that uses MFE with a Live/Hotmail/Outlook account has been affected by, is that the N9 no longer syncs correctly. This was caused by Microsoft updating some protocols or something technical like that, and Nokia not rectifying the situation. Here are two really quick fixes that have not only worked for [...]
