Apparently something interesting has been spotted. I don’t know how legit this is but this has appeared on wpbench. These pics were kindly sent to us by Stipan who was using wpbench on his Nokia Lumia 800. On that he found listed, the Nokia PureLambda, Nokia Phi, Nokia Pure Phi and Nokia Alpha – with the [...]

Another day, another appearance at Reddit for a Nokia. Yes it’s the old 3310 but yes too in that there’s a Nokia Lumia 900. http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/u0z97/nokia_successor/ I sadly browse reddit too often when I take a study break so I can say that I rarely ever see any other phone making it to the front page [...]
We demoed the original PAC-MAN game in #180 and here is the Championship Edition DX. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/05/13/lumiappaday-180-pac-man-demoed-on-the-nokia-lumia-800-xboxlive/ As you’ll see in the video, it’s an interesting twist to the original. First the controls are much improved for touch – no more virtual joystick, just flick the direction you want. There’s also multitouch gestures to activate the [...]
The following bit of information comes from NokiaLino.it- An Italian blogger who recently attended a Lumia 610/900 launch event in Italy; he got some very interesting pieces of information regarding practically all the current Handsets that were announced last February. The most interesting of which is the fact that “Nokia Carla” Which was supposed to be the successor to Nokia Belle is no [...]
Let me start by saying this is a great game that you’re going to need to try out! If you liked Dalton that we demoed on the N9, this is like that. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/01/27/n9apps-dalton-the-awesome-demoed-on-the-nokia-n9/ This is quite simply, a running game called Running Dude. The principle is simple – just run and jump. But it’s really [...]
Here’s a nice long Render of either a fan-made concept of what WindowsPhone 8 will include or hopefully this is a Leaked UI guideline interface, there are some really interesting changes that are hopefully coming, most improtantly to me is the inclusion of the notification bar alongisde the media/volume popup bringing multiple toggles (Battery, Wifi, 3G, Lock [...]
100th Day of School is the Sesame Street app that Nokia showed off at Nokia World. It’s available for Symbian too at Nokia Store: http://store.ovi.com/content/233031 100th day of school is a children’s educational app that can help with their reading. The pages will turn with a book like animation. Tap on the words and have [...]
Cliffed is a reaction style race to the bottom. Your guy can’t jump so when he comes across a boulder, he must go all the way around back to the other side to get at the gap in the floor. Hurry though because if you fall our of frame (i.e. the top bit catches [...]
This is an app to keep track of news from Al Jazeera. There is a written portion of news but what this would be most useful for is to stream the video feeds. #186) Al Jazeera Price: Free Link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-GB/apps/e1897733-6934-45a1-9385-e6919ff2d14e Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxRLoJJKLo8&feature=youtu.be Developer Blurb: Now you can keep up to date with the latest news from [...]
Not to be outdone by the release of it’s unofficial Meego client whatsapp for WIndows Phone has been updated to the big two-O, (honestly I cheated on my #SmartPhoneLiteWeek a bit today cause I had to upload some images of a document- and the Ashas camera is unbearable), as I was using the Lumia I spotted [...]
We just posted about the camera extension app. Hopefully these will be features integrated into the main camera. Ah, Simon below comments it IS already deeply linked into the camera app. Nice http://mynokiablog.com/2012/05/19/nokia-lumia-900-experience-nokia-hk-camera-extension-app-for-panoburst-shots-etc First up, panorama. The UI is different to Creative Studio by Nokia. Next, smartgroup. If you take a picture of a group [...]
According to vignesh, India is already rolling out WP 7.5 Refresh/Tango. Check out the Internet Sharing feature. You can also see Nokia Store logo. These pics were snapped with a Nokia Lumia 710. Not bad – even after reduction in quality for upload/marking, they’re pretty decent, no? Here’s the version number: Date: Thanks vignesh for the [...]
You may remember that a camera update has been expected for the Nokia Lumia series that provides, amongst other things, burst shot and panorama capture. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/03/02/nokia-lumia-800-firmware-out-camera-update-with-panorama-sport-mode-self-timer-and-smart-group-shot/ There are already apps that do this – Nokia’s own Creative Studio allows for panoramic app creation for example. We got an email from blogger Jack, that Nokia [...]
Hey, this is Hardboiled Pinball – a very simple pinball game. In the demo that I recorded a while ago, I didn’t realise that landscape view was available in settings ( I had wondered why the game started in landscape and then showed a portrait gameplay). I advise you to switch to landscape as [...]
I saw this video RT’d into my timeline by markmurray98119. It shows a test of the Nokia Lumia 900 against a hammer. The hammer’s force is concentrated with a nail. Admittedly it doesn’t look like such a strong thump though that would be sufficient force to push that nail into some MDF. Anywhoo – what [...]
Interesting promo from Nokia Poland. They have the Nokia Lumia 610 being demoed but interestingly, they have an overly of the UI to show what’s happening with panoramic Metro UI. It’s pretty cool As mentioned before, this kind of interface works great for Lumia phone but equally it could translate itself easily to tablets. I [...]
I was rather skeptical to read the WP blogs saying that WP was apparently getting some initial traction in China. Oh you know I’d of course like it to be true, but I’m not too convinced as evident by my rather hesitant title. Both WMPoweruser and WPcentral are reporting that WP has exceeded iPhone’s [...]
This is now the second time this has happened. Marketplace has otherwise been a pleasant experience. Fortunately unlike Nokia/Ovi Stire, there is no download limit. You can download as many times as you like. Over and over. Unfortunately, the phone app, you CANNOT see what you have bought and what you haven’t. Well, not [...]
Dino Parade is like the Bye Bye Brain series except that it’s with Dinosaurs. Whilst the concept is similar, it’s still a nice and refreshing game to play. 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 [...]
Wayne Brady (IMDB Link for Y’all)- well known actor and Emmy winner; for me he’s known as Barney’s Gay Brother (HIMYM reference) just picked up a Lumia 900 (in stormtrooper white *please stop torturing me*) and is flaunting it on twitter along with his matching On Ear Purity Headphones. Wayne Brady@waynebrady Sorry about the bad link:( sucks! [...]
