Wrote this post a few weeks back but somehow never got round to ‘publishing’ it. After deep resetting the N97 and finding out “restore from memory card” did not restore my menu layout (as it did on 3rd edition), I got stuck in using the old S60 default menu layout, which was/is a pain! S60 […]

I just read an email from the WOM crew [the Don ;)]inviting me to a “virtual Q&A session” to discuss the latest firmware release (V11.0.021), where we see the N97 going in the future and what we’d like to see in future updates. This will take place on Thursday. I’m absolutely shattered right now and […]

It’s pretty much the same as the super successful 5800 except notably: +Faster Processor +Software Tweaks -Smaller Screen -No GPS [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRSUkEXMmtY] The 5530 is also the first Nokia to demonstrate kinetic scrolling within the contacts phonebook. It looks just as smooth as it is […]

How to: Ultimate calibration method for your Nokia N97's compass (side issue with N97 not getting GPS fix at all)

One of Mark Guim’s readers, RobertH, may have found the best solution for calibrating the Nokia N97. We’ve previously seen the Symbian World guys’ “wrist twist”, allowing compass calibration within 3 seconds.

This tutorial for movie making on the Nokia N97 comes from the Vodafone UK peeps. (Shame Nseries lost video editing function) [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXaGr7uYHlk] The N97 can capture DVD-like quality video – that’s either 4:3 VGA (640×480) or a more cinematic looking 16:9 nHD (640 x 358) true widescreen. Videos taken by the N97 are really solid […]

The Nokia N97 and the HTC Touch Pro2 are two similar looking devices with very similar array of features. I was very impressed with the spec sheet of the Touch Pro2, and back in April felt that it’s what the N97 should have been, at least in terms of being having a better QWERTY keyboard, […]
