As always, no responsibility if you brick your device,and [...]
Video: Qt QML Components running on BlackBerry PlayBook
w00teh1 has a neat video showing some Nokia N9′s Qt QML components on the BlackBerry PlayBook (another very gesture optimised device). You could think of it as possibly parts of N9 in tablet form. As Nokia fans are aware, the history of Maemo lies in tablets anyway. Qt Components are building blocks to create [...]

Adobe Flash with Fennec coming to Nokia N9?
There had always been mentions of flash coming to the N9 in some way after we heard the default browser did not support it at the time. In the Nokia N9/N950 section of TMO, there is a post saying Flash is being worked on. In discussions with Mozilla and Adobe there seems to be no [...]

N9Apps: Pocket Piglet for MeeGo/Nokia N9
Oleg, a popular Symbian developer has created an app for MeeGo/Nokia N9. It is called Pocket Piglet, a children’s app that is also available for Symbian. I asked him about his thoughts on developing N9 apps and the difference to making Symbian and Oleg says not much. ” I develop all my modern apps using [...]
Live Wallpaper for N950 w/ PR 1.2 (N9 support soon?)
If you follow me on twitter, you’d see that today Nokia Australia gave me an N950 after talking to some people at the Lumia Launch. Anyway, I have PR 1.2 (and will probably give you a guys a run through of it, as well as comparison of it with N9) and went to enable landscape [...]
#N9Hacks: HomeScreen Backgrounds (App)
Jay showed you guys that there was a hack to change the background , and today I am showing you the simplest way to get it enabled, regrettably using the Apple line “there’s an app for that.” The app is called Home Screen Background Settings, and is a GUI that allows the user to change [...]
MNB Reader Stories: The Burning Symbian Blog
Here is a story sent to MNB by Janne who has decided to collect some of the thoughts and discussions over the past week or so. We occasionally get articles sent in and most of the time it just goes under our own post, but now I’m going to start putting them into their own [...]
N9Apps: QNeptunea (QT Twitter Client)
This came up in my Timeline on Saturday and I thought I’d leave this for during the week. Apparently there is ANOTHER Twitter client for the N9/50. As expected being a QT app, is extremely fluid. To me, it is way faster than the native client, both in connecting to a network and retrieving tweets, [...]
Video: Progress Update: Android ICS on Nokia N9 (NitDroid)
Like the N900, there is attempts to bring Android to the N9. Been in contact with a dev over Twitter recently, DrunkDebugger, and he has gotten quite a lot done. He has even recently developed a method for untethered booting into Alternate OS. If you are interested, read about it here. Anyway, what I wanted [...]
Weekend Read: Engadget’s White Nokia N9 hands on
In case you missed it, here’s the mythical white Nokia N9, in the hands of Engadget’s Myriam Joire (tnkgrl). Check out the link below for the gallery and video. It’s a shame picture on the box is of the black N9. As we’ve seen before, instead of a white case (that would match the colour [...]
Did the Motorola Droid 4 Rip-off the N950s look?
Since we’re living in a time where most companies rely on blocking other competitors sales rather than selling their own (no need to point anyone out) I find it funny that Motorolas latest phones (which could be considered Googles latest phone) almost completely rips off the N950s look; but with a flat hinge rather than an angled one. [...]
Accessories: Nokia Play 360 Speaker
I know these have been out for a while, but I hadn’t seen too many reviews of it. Thanks to Nokia Australia’s PR Agency, I was able to get one to trial and bring you a review on. I have a video that re-iterates everything I say in this post so if you prefer to [...]
N9 PR 1.3 already in testing?
Belle has been pretty much dominating the Nokia news this week. What about us that have the N9? Well the PR 1.2 update is just around the corner. But thanks to a Twitter post and a link to Harmattan-Bugs, there is a report or PR 1.3 in use. Doing a search with a few keywords [...]
Lumia 800 to be released in KSA soon?
If any of you guys are following me on twitter (doubt it ) you’l know that I’ve had some serious issues with the micro-USB port on my N8; where cables hardly connect except after hours of fiddling and then I must stay deathly still cause the slightest movement disconnects the cable (for the record the USB port wasn’t great [...]
N9Apps: CutePress ( WordPress App )
Seeing as MyNokiaBlog is powered by WordPress, I thought it would be only fitting to bring a WordPress app to your attention. I was looking at Nokia Conversations and I found this app. ( Also a WP version is on the site. See source for link.) I really like it. It is simply to use, [...]

Video: 43 Min. Walk-through of PR1.2 on N950 (This time in Chinese??)
Jaydee tipped us off in the comments section about a new video ‘preview’ eventhough it’s over 40 minutes which makes it a short movie in my opinion; the video is by one Amanda Lam (thanks alot!), thankfully even though the video is in Chinese (I think, possibly Korean?) it has English subtitles about what feature is being discussed, so you [...]
N9Apps: Stack the Stuff, demoed on the Nokia N9
Hey folks, here’s another Nokia N9 App called Stack the Stuff. This is based on the very popular stacking theme and it’s brilliantly done on the Nokia N9. You have a punch of stationary in a cartoon style and you have to balance them on the board (As usual) and make sure they stay that [...]
