This review comes from our reader FireDragon. He installed iWindows on his N8 running Anna. Here’s what he thought. I was checking this application and I like it so far other than how it looks. iWindows brings a Windows Start Button to the Homescreen, over lapping the “Option” button. The Start Button’s graphic is horrible [...]
Another post I pushed back due to the heavy traffic of Nokia World. It seems Beta Labs have pushed out a new social network tool they are calling Nokia Pulse. It was another product I’ve heard was shown off at Nokia World. According to Nokia it “brings your everyday conversations to life by automatically tagging [...]
I was looking at QT 3D and the demo phone they included in their video was a C7 supposedly running Symbian Anna. Obviously, the UI shown on the device is not Anna, but indeed Belle. We know it’s a C7 based on the design. The 701 does NOT have the menu button in the bottom [...]
It seems that Voddler launched an app to be used with Symbian this time. “The app is free and works on Symbian smartphones that have upgraded to Symbian Anna.” According to Voddler’s website “at launch, the app has about 250 movies activated for mobile viewing, but new titles will be added on a running basis [...]
Hello fellow Mynokiablog readers! Today we present an honest (harsh?) video comparison of Asphalt 6! The nitty-gritty details can be found in the video description below. From MrNokiaTech: “NOTE: Gameloft “ported” Asphalt 6 to the Symbian^3 OS. It appears that they were not able to harness the power of the Broadcom GPU and [...]
I know we have already brought you an article regarding Nokia Beta Labs’ new toy, Universal Search Beta. However, it was a closed trial (invite only). This still hasn’t changed, although i have come across a leaked installer of the new Search (2.39.176). I have been using it on my N8 (PR 1.2 – No [...]
Snap, what do we have hear then, it looks like Elop might be a master in leaking a device on purpose but he sure isnt one in keeping a device under wraps. What we have here is the first ina group of devices that will run the next version of Symbian called [...]

A diverse group of bloggers from all around the world, including Canada, USA, UK and India – were invited to fly to Germany to meet the team behind Nokia Ovi Maps – in my opinion, the most popular service on Nokia phones.
From Nokia Conversations, The Official Nokia Blog: “GLOBAL – Today Nokia and news network CNN have announced plans for an international agreement which will see Nokia providing rich mapping services to the network. You may have already seen the first fruits of this collaboration when CNN used Nokia’s new 3D maps to show the route [...]
On the day preceding the Royal Wedding, along with a few other bloggers I was invited by WW/N to a mysterious little event held London. There, in collaboration with Nokia, a selected group of CNN iReporters were given out Nokia N8′s to capture the big day. And the best part – everyone attending got a [...]
Sometimes before actually writing a fully fledged review it’s useful to put down some raw impressions first. These immediate reactions of using the Nokia E7 might be able to convey a more vivid image than a perfectly constructed and though-out review. Of course, for every type of article there’s the best time and place. Now [...]
Without much fanfare or any publicity, this Instagram ( the cool iOS app that adds effects and filters to a photo on the fly and shares it on social networks ) look-alike for Symbian devices has been launched in the Ovi Store. It’s a free application and it’s called Molome. Like stop motion videos ? [...]

Well it looks like finally, FINALLY Nokia has managed to give us the first of hopefully many more software updates for their new Symbian devices. Unfortunately for camera lovers out there, the N8 doesn’t seem to have this update yet. (I checked). The description of the update is ” Improves phone performance and brings you [...]
Odd title for a blog post but having watched a few videos of the game, i gotta say, name or not it’s worth a buy. Sparkle is a game much like Zuma where the objective is to fire coloured beads at a moving line of other beads in order to destroy it before it gets [...]
The folks over at Nokia beta labs have brought to us an update to Soundtrckr for Symbian ^3 and S60 5th Edition. If you don’t know what Soundtrckr is, you can find out more on Jay’s earlier post, but the official blurb from Ovi is: Soundtrckr makes it easy to discover and play the music [...]
Here I am sleeping late like the bum of a student that I am, when I hear a loud, unexpected knock on my door. Lo and behold it’s the courier from DHL bringing with him my first trial device for review ! Upon tearing the package upon, all I’m left with is a tiny, blue [...]
In the wake of Q4 2010 earnings, Reuters reports hints on Nokia picking up a competitors operating system aka “ecosystem”. Nokia has been adamant on not joining the Android gang and pretty much any other outside OS. Though when Marko Ahtisaari, Nokia VP Design, was asked about WP7 he said it was different to Android [...]
