technology~ Hi, I'm Nokia 808 PureView


article grabbed from here :)

I’ve been using my Nokia 808 PureView for more than 2 weeks now, and as such have gotten it very nicely set up for my usage.
All the right apps, widgets and tweaks here and there. Here’s what’s installed on my Nokia 808 Pureview, with a little bit of how I actually use the last Symbian phone.
Scr000130wtmk
For one thing, although one of Symbian Belle’s new ‘features‘ is that it’s a ‘flat’ menu with everything in on vertically scrollable list, I still prefer to sort things into folders.
Scr000131wtmk
Makes it a low easier to use, and for some weird reason, I just really hate scrolling a menu vertically. With iOS and so many Android skins using the side-swipe horizontal menu scroll nowadays, I really hope someone, somewhere comes up with a menu hack to enable this on Symbian heh.
Speaking of which, you’ll notice my folders show a tiny icon preview of the first four apps inside it. I’ll explain what made that possible in the “Tools” apps section below. I also haveWhatsAppFoursquare for Symbian, and Gravity on my top menu.
Going from Folder/Category to Folder, here’s what’s on my 808. WordPress screwed up my formatting though, so apologies for the strangely placed text.

GAMES:-

Admittedly, with an iPad that I use primarily for writing and gaming, I dont really require too many games on my phone. I hardly had any outside of Angry Birds installed on my iPhone, and likewise here on the 808 I only have a handful of games.
Scr000132wtmk
They are:
Ofcourse I’d need to have this game on my phone. Just for those once-in-a-while moments where I might not have my tablet around, or just want a quick casual game to play around with.
THE SURVIVAL OF THE ANGRY BIRDS IS AT STAKE. DISH OUT REVENGE ON THE GREEN PIGS WHO STOLE THE BIRDS’ EGGS. USE THE UNIQUE DESTRUCTIVE POWERS OF THE ANGRY BIRDS TO LAY WASTE TO THE PIGS’ FORTIFIED CASTLES. ANGRY BIRDS FEATURES CHALLENGING PHYSICS-BASED CASTLE DEMOLITION, AND LOTS OF REPLAY VALUE. EACH OF THE 288 LEVELS REQUIRES LOGIC, SKILL, AND BRUTE FORCE TO CRUSH THE ENEMY.
    • Asphalt 6 (Pre-Installed):
Came installed, but who doesnt love a good racing game once in a while, eh?
GET YOUR ADRENALINE PUMPING FOR THE NEWEST EDITION OF THE ASPHALT SERIES. DISCOVER 42 CARS & BIKES FROM WORLD-CLASS MANUFACTURERS LIKE FERRARI OR ASTON MARTIN. TUNE YOUR VEHICLE & CUSTOMIZE IT WITH DECALS BEFORE TEARING UP THE STREETS OF L.A., TOKYO, THE BAHAMAS & OTHER BEAUTIFUL LOCATIONS, EACH RENDERED IN HD. YOU’LL BE DRIVING AGAINST TOUGH OPPONENTS IN 11 DIFFERENT LEAGUES WITH 55 EVENTS PLUS ONLINE/LOCAL MULTIPLAYER FOR UP TO 6 PLAYERS.
    • Lets Golf 2 (Pre-Installed):
Not entirely into Golf, so might delete this one.
IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A FASTER, MORE COLORFUL AND FUN GOLF EXPERIENCE, LET’S GOLF! 2 IS JUST THE GAME TO LIVEN THINGS UP! PICK FROM 8 COLORFUL AND CUSTOMIZABLE 3D CHARACTERS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SPECIAL POWER, THEN TRAVEL TO 6 EXOTIC AND WILD LOCATIONS TO PLAY 108 HOLES IN MORE DETAILED LOCATIONS THAN EVER. YOU CAN PLAY MULTIPLAYER GOLF WITH YOUR FRIENDS ONLINE OR LOCALLY.
    • Angry Birds: NFC Magic (Pre-Installed):
Came Pre-installed. Just like the normal Angry Birds, but with NFC related unlocks and new levels. Definitely fun stuff!
Another free game that came pre-installed. Bounce is a game that has been on Nokia devices for ages. Dont know why they didnt just stick with snake though, heh. Good enough for a quick play once in a while.
Definitely one of my top three favourite games. Definitely worth checking out.
THE WORLDWIDE SMASH HIT GAME FRUIT NINJA IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR NOKIA C7, N8, C6 & E7! FRUIT NINJA IS A JUICY ACTION GAME WITH SQUISHY, SPLATTY AND SATISFYING FRUIT CARNAGE! BECOME THE ULTIMATE BRINGER OF SWEET, TASTY DESTRUCTION WITH EVERY SLASH. SWIPE UP ACROSS THE SCREEN TO DELICIOUSLY SLASH FRUIT LIKE A TRUE NINJA WARRIOR. WITH THREE GAMES MODES IN SINGLE PLAYER THE ADDICTIVE GAMEPLAY WILL KEEP YOU COMING BACK FOR EVEN HIGHER SCORES. FRUIT NINJA IS THE ORIGINAL AND THE BEST SLASHER ON NOKIA!
A classic Symbian game, I think this first appeared with the Nokia N95. The developers bought it to Symbian^3 too, and here it is. Very fun, very basic game. Get the ball, in the hole, using your phones accelerometer.
FULL VERSION OF THE FAMOUS LABYRINTH GAME! THIS VERSION INCLUDES 20 NEW AMAZING FIELDS WITH THE TOTAL OF 81 FIELDS AND A NEW MORE CHALLENGING PHYSICS MODEL! MARBLE MAZE CLASSIC IS A LABYRINTH GAME OPTIMIZED TO RUN FAST ON NOKIA TOUCH DEVICES. THE BEST LABYRINTH GAME IS NOW OFFERED FREE THANKS TO ADS BY INNERACTIVE (REQUIRES INTERNET CONNECTION). SEE ALSO: WWW.HYPERKANI.COM FOR MORE!
Another Racing Game from the popular EA Need for Speed franchise. It was free, so I thought, why not?
GET BEHIND THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD’S #1 RACING FRANCHISE! EXPLODE ONTO THE CIRCUIT IN THE FASTEST, HOTTEST CARS. TEAR THROUGH THE STREETS OF CHICAGO, DUBAI, ITALY & LONDON IN 24 STREET AND PRO-RACING EVENTS. RACE TO DEFEAT THE WORLD’S TOP 3 DRIVERS!
It’s Tetris! Do I need a reason?
TETRIS IS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR GAMES ON MOBILE PHONES. WE STARTED WITH THE GAME PLAYED AND LOVED BY OVER 60 MILLION PLAYERS AND ADDED THE FEATURES TO MAKE IT THE PERFECT GAME FOR YOUR MOBILE PHONE. THREE NEW VARIANTS WILL ENTERTAIN BOTH THE CASUAL PLAYER AND THE GAME-PRO.
Ugh. J2ME version, ugly/slow means you can pass on this one, unless you’re a huge Bejeweled fan. It’s free btw.
TAKE THE CLASSIC GEM-SWAPPING GAME TO NEW HEIGHTS WITH BEJEWELED 2! MATCH SPARKLING GEMS IN 4 DIFFERENT GAME MODES THAT OFFER WILDLY ADDICTIVE, HIGH-CARAT FUN!

WITH CUTTING EDGE ANIMATION, EXCITING MULTI LEVEL DESIGN, AND MULTIPLE ATTACK MODES, GOD OF WAR: BETRAYAL FOLLOWS KRATOS AS HE STRUGGLES TO WIN BACK ZEUSS TRUST AND REGAIN HIS EXALTED POSITION ON MOUNT OLYMPUS.
Gotta love Micropool! Another Symbian classic, this game got the physics right before any other pool game on mobile, at the time. Still worth checking out I’d say. Seems to be on sale right now too.
MICRO POOL IS AN AWARD WINNING POOL SIMULATOR. THE KEY STRENGTH OF MICRO POOL ARE GREAT ATMOSPHERE, REALISTIC GRAPHICS AND SOUNDS. THE EXTREMELY FAST LOADING TIME AND THE CONVENIENT USER INTERFACE MAKES IT A GOOD COMPANION FOR YOUR FREE TIME. MAIN FEATURES – 4 POOL GAMES (8-BALL, 9-BALL, KILLER AND SPEED) – 3 TABLES – ADJUSTABLE OPPONENT STRENGTH FOR BEGINNERS AND PROS – WONDERFULLY SIMPLE USER INTERFACE

MEDIA:

Media is something Symbian has always been capable of handling very well. The Music Player still has some kinks that need working out (cant sort by Artist, cant search in some sections) but otherwise the experience is solid. You can play almost any video file format right out of the box, and thanks to the file explorer, Drag-and-drop connectivity and USB-OTG, you can keep it all sorted into folders, or dump them into the external memory, or microSD card slot.
Scr000133wtmk
Ofcourse there are some apps to take that experience further, and they are:
Made by Scalado, it works okay on the Pureview. “Retro” mode locks up my device though. I’d say Skip.
CAMERA LOVER PACK WILL AMAZE YOUR WORLD WITH THE MOST COMPLETE AND SUPREME CAMERA APP EVER SEEN. IT HAS ALL THE CAMERA FUNCTIONS YOU’LL EVER NEED AND INCLUDES PANORAMA, RETRO AND ARTISTIC FILTERS, BURST CAPTURING, BLENDING, FUNNY EFFECTS AND MUCH MORE. CAMERA LOVER PACK IS THE BEST PERFORMING APP USING WORLD RENOWNED SCALADO TECHNIQUES WHICH LETS YOU VIEW EVERYTHING LIVE IN THE VIEWFINDER FOR INSTANT CONTROL OVER YOUR PHOTOS.
    • Silent Film Director (Pre-Installed):
Worth checking out with friends for a few laughs. Pre-installed and not available on the Nokia Store unfortch.
Everyone knows Shazam! The popular music-identifying app works great on Symbian, and is one of my must-install apps on any platform.
CREATE MUSIC MOMENTS! SHAZAM CAN IDENTIFY MUSIC ANYWHERE: FROM TV, RADIO OR IN A BAR.
WITH SHAZAM YOU CAN DISCOVER AND BUY MUSIC TRACKS, FIND TOUR DATES FOR TAGGED ARTISTS AND BUY TICKETS TO THE GIG; SHARE TAGS AND GET MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS.
An app by Nokia that lets you watch the latest movie trailers on your Symbian device. Can even download them to your Pureview to watch later!
NOKIA TRAILERS IS THE BEST APP FOR VIEWING TEASERS AND TRAILERS FOR NEW AND UPCOMING MOVIES. KEEP UP-TO-DATE WITH THE LATEST FILMS, DOWNLOAD YOUR FAVOURITES IN HD, AND SHARE RECOMMENDATIONS WITH FRIENDS.

Pretty useful app, that lets you project your media to an HDTV if you have the HDMI cable adapter for the PureView. Unfortunately I dont have that adapter since it’s not in stock with Nokia India, so I cant confirm whether this works or not. Still, it’s free and from Nokia, so why not?
NOKIA BIG SCREEN TURNS YOUR MOBILE INTO A MEDIA CENTER FOR PHOTOS, VIDEOS AND MUSIC WHEN CONNECTED TO HDTV WITH HDMI. YOU CAN SHOW VIDEOS AND PICTURES IN HIGH DEFINITION WITH MULTICHANNEL AUDIO AND EVEN PLAY MUSIC ON THE PICTURE SHOW ’S BACKGROUND. ALSO, YOU CAN JUST PLAY MUSIC THROUGH YOUR HOME AUDIO SYSTEM WITH SUPPORT FOR PLAYLISTS. USE THE APPLICATION FROM THE PHONE TOUCH DISPLAY OR BY WIRELESSLY CONNECTING A BLUETOOTH KEYBOARD OR WII REMOTE TO YOUR PHONE. VISIT WWW.NOKIA.COM/BIGSCREEN!
If your TV supports DLNA though, then you can wirlessly send media over, using Nokia DLNA Play To. Works perfect.
NOKIA PLAY TO LETS YOU REMOTELY SHOW PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FROM YOUR MOBILE WIRELESSLY ON A DLNA TV. USING THE ZOOM YOU CAN SHOW THE DETAILS OF A PHOTO ON THE BIG TV SCREEN. YOU CAN ALSO LISTEN TO MUSIC STORED ON YOUR MOBILE THROUGH A DLNA HOME AUDIO SYSTEM. TO BROWSE THE PHONE’S MEDIA WITH A DLNA PLAYER SUCH AS THE SONY PLAY STATION 3, ACTIVATE THE DLNA SERVER IN PLAY TO. USE THE HOME SCREEN WIDGET TO QUICKLY SET THE DLNA SERVER ON/OFF.
If you like streaming internet radio, this one’s for you. If you’re not happy with your local radio content, why not listen to the UK top hits, or more?
THE NOKIA INTERNET RADIO ENABLES YOU TO DISCOVER AND ENJOY THE RADIO SHOWS TRANSMITTED OVER THE INTERNET. USING STATION DIRECTORY YOU CAN SEARCH FOR RADIO STATIONS BY GENRE, LANGUAGE OR COUNTRY/REGION.
    • FM Radio (Built-in):
Never use FM nowadays, but this is a built-in feature sooo…
    • Play via Radio (Built-in):
Gotta love FM Transmitters! Send your music to any car radio or general radio by broadcasting a signal right from your Pureview (gasp!).
    • Recorder (Built-in):
As a blogger, comes in handy to record an interview once in a while. Even if I never end up posting said interviews. D’oh.
Let’s you browser your images in a nice 3D layout. Doesnt work on my 808 PureView unfortch. Only loads up the “date thumbnails” and no images itself, heh. Skip.
NOKIA PHOTO BROWSER IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PHOTO BROWSER THAT MAKES VIEWING YOUR PHOTOS QUICK AND FUN. NOTE: THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PROTOTYPE THAT MAY BREAK, CHANGE OR DISAPPEAR AT ANY TIME. YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE AT HTTP://BETALABS.NOKIA.COM
If you’re a last.fm user, you’ll need Mobbler. Doesnt pretty much what you’d want from an unofficial last.fm client. Doesnt scrobble unless you leave it running in the background though.
MOBBLER IS A LAST.FM RADIO PLAYER AND SCROBBLER. IT ALLOWS YOU TO LISTEN TO YOUR LAST.FM RADIO STATIONS AND TO SCROBBLE TRACKS PLAYED USING THE STANDARD MUSIC PLAYER.

  • MoloMe:If you want an instagram-like experience on your PureView, that’s where MoloMe comes in. Similar service, but with more filters, and it works with the 808!
    MOLOME™ IS A EASY & FUN WAY TO SHARE YOUR JOURNEY OF LIFE. GRAB YOUR PHONE, SNAP PHOTOS OR CHOOSE FROM GALLERY, EXPERIENCE COOL EFFECTS BEYOND CREATIVITY AND SHARE IT WITH YOUR FRIENDS OR SHOW IT TO THE WORLD VIA SOCIAL NETWORK.

    CREATE FUNNY IMAGES WITH A FISH-EYE LENSE EFFECT SIMULATION INCLUDING LIVE CAMERA PREVIEW OF THE EFFECT. THIS FULL VERSION IS AD-FREE, SUPPORTS 5 DIFFERENT LENSES, AND UPLOAD TO FACEBOOK, FLICKR, PICASA, AND TWITTER.
    • ColorizIt (Pre-Installed):
    Pre-Installed and not available on the Nokia Store unfortch. Let’s you selectively choose to only show a certain color at chosen parts of your photos. Does the job pretty well.
    A little bit laggy and unstable of my 808. Still, if you want another image editor instead of the built-in one, here ya go.
    PHOTORIM HD IS A FANTASTIC NEW KIND OF PHOTO EDITING APP FOR YOU. PICK ANY IMAGE FROM YOUR PHONE, UNLEASH YOUR CREATIVITY AND ENTER INTO THE WORLD OF FLOWING THUMBNAILS. NO COMPLEX EFFECT NAMES, SLIDERS OR BUTTONS. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, NO WAITING: THE EFFECTS ARE GENERATED ON-THE-FLY. BROWSE THROUGH THESE DIFFERENT PAGES FOR AS LONG AS YOU LIKE AND ADD AS MANY LAYERS INTO YOUR IMAGE AS YOU WANT TO CREATE BEAUTIFUL ARTWORKS.
    Made by Nokia France, this basically helps you look around your local Nokia Music Store. You have the Nokia Music client for that, but was a fun alternative. Doesnt work on my 808 though. Not quite sure if it’s a problem with the Indian music store, or the app.
    MUSIC EXPLORER HAS BEEN REVAMPED AND REDEVELOPED IN QT TO LET SEARCH AND PREVIEW THE MUSIC FASTER IN YOUR LOCAL NOKIA MUSIC STORE AND KEEP TRACK OF THE TOP TRACKS IN YOUR FAVOURITE GENRE WHILE ALSO GAINING ACCESS TO EXCLUSIVE OFFERS AND FEATURES ON YOUR TOUCH ENABLED NOKIA DEVICE.
    If you have a lot of music on your 808 Pureview, and just want a certain “kind” of music to play, to suit your current mood, here’s where MoodAgent comes in.
    LET YOUR MUSIC MATCH YOUR MOOD! MOODAGENT IS THE INTELLIGENT MUSIC PLAYER THAT CREATES PERFECT PLAYLISTS FROM YOUR LOCAL MUSIC LIBRARY. GIVE MOODAGENT A STARTING TRACK OR ADJUST THE 5 MOOD SLIDERS, AND YOU’LL INSTANTLY GET A PLAYLIST OF MATCHING TRACKS.

    Absolutely brilliant app that lets you find album art for your Music on your 808 Pureview.
    COVERUP FINDS AND ADDS ALBUM ART TO ALL THE MUSIC ON YOUR PHONE WITH A SINGLE PRESS OF A BUTTON.
    FOR ADVANCED USERS, COVERUP ALLOWS CUSTOM SEARCHES AND YOU CAN USE PICTURES STORED ON THE PHONE.
    COVERUP WORKS WITH ALL SYMBIAN AND MEEGO TOUCH SCREEN DEVICES AND ALL MUSIC FILES THAT PLAY ON THEM.

    MAPS AND GPS:

    Nokia’s phones have the best Maps and GPS-related apps by far, and Nokia’s Maps suite do a pretty good job of handling most tasks that you’d require.
    Scr000135wtmk
    The Maps Suite install includes Nokia Maps, Drive, Guides, Public Transport, Weather, Map Loader, and Check in. Ofcourse I’ve installed some others from Nokia BetaLabs and the Nokia Store, which include:

    I havent really gotten much use out of Wikitude, but I still install it on all my devices, heh. Fun to check out what’s around you, if you’re lost or just in a new country or place.

    CoPilot, formerly known as GeePS2, is a neat Google Maps client for Symbian, with a couple more features. Since the official Google Maps for Symbian app doesnt work with the pureview, this is a decent alternative.
    NATIVE CLIENT FOR GOOGLE MAPS WITH PLACES/BUSINESS SEARCH AND DIRECTIONS.
    OFFERS A CLEAN USER INTERFACE TO MAXIMIZE USE OF THE SMALL SCREEN AND QUICK ACCESS TO ALL FEATURES.
    MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE SUPPORT/HELP PAGE TO FIND OUT ABOUT ALL THE FEATURES.
    FREE FOR LIMITED TIME.
    On the N95 and N82, there used to be a seperate GPS Info app to let you know how things were going, how many satelites, strength of your GPS-lock, etc. That disappeared with the N96 onwards, but here’s an app that sorta does the same thing.
    A SIMPLE QT APPLICATION THAT SHOWS EXTRA GPS INFORMATION.
    THIS WILL NOT WORK ON THE OLDER VERSIONS OF THE QT AS IT USES NEW QT COMPONENTS.
    REQUIRES QT 4.7.4 AND QT MOBILITY. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR PHONE.

    Random, interesting apps to view photos around a location.
    GEOSNAPS ALLOWS YOU TO EXPLORE PHOTOS IN YOUR SURROUNDING OR ANY OTHER LOCATION IN THE WORLD WITH YOUR NOKIA PHONE.

    INTERNET AND SOCIAL NETWORKING:-

    Scr000137wtmk
    • Nokia Social (Pre-Installed) with Facebook and Twitter:
    Nokia’s pre-installed Social App is notoriously laggy and slow, but it’s a free way to get your social networking fix. No push notifications though, and you can only sign into one account at one time. The only reason to use it? Because it syncs your contacts with their Twitter or Facebook Display picture, and pulls in their last status update. Yay!
    Since there’s no official Facebook client for Symbian, fMobi is the next best thing. It works great and has all the things you’d want in a Facebook app. If you want Facebook Messenger/Chat seperately, the Developer has also made fChat.
    THE BEST FACEBOOK CLIENT FOR YOUR PHONE. INCLUDING BELLE WIDGET! CHAT OR SHARE STATUS. CHECKIN. UPLOAD PHOTOS. COMMENT AND LIKE YOUR FRIENDS’ POSTS. LOOK AT YOUR FRIENDS PHOTOS & ALBUMS AND MUCH MUCH MORE! MORE THAN 25 LANGUAGES INCLUDED! USER FEEDBACK: 5/5 “I LOVE THIS APP. IT’S MADE ME ENJOY USING FACEBOOK THROUGH A MOBILE PHONE AGAIN.” VIDEO PREVIEW: HTTP://YOUTU.BE/QVSDLGP5LFQ TRIAL VERSION: HTTP://STORE.OVI.COM/CONTENT/200535
    The Official Skype Client for Symbian. Not available in-device search for some strange reason even though it’s listed on the store for other Symbian devices. You’ll have to resort to *other means* to get it installed on your 808. Works fine! No Video support though.
    WITH ALL THE BENEFITS OF SKYPE ON YOUR PHONE YOU CAN SAVE MONEY AND STAY IN TOUCH WHEN YOU’RE ON THE MOVE.
    • MAKE FREE SKYPE-TO-SKYPE CALLS AND IM ON 3G OR WIFI.
    • SAVE MONEY ON CALLS AND TEXTS (SMS) TO PHONES ABROAD.
    • SHARE PICTURES, VIDEOS AND OTHER FILES FROM YOUR PHONE.
    IT’S FREE TO USE SKYPE IN A WIFI ZONE. IF YOU USE SKYPE WITH A MOBILE DATA CONNECTION, OPERATOR CHARGES MAY APPLY, SO WE RECOMMEND AN UNLIMITED DATA PLAN. LARGE FILE, USE WIFI TO DOWNLOAD
    I never use LinkedIn, but incase I randomly get the urge to, I have the official client installed. Works fine. I keep it handy because of the NFC function that might come in useful someday.
    UPDATES IN 2.0.1051: GET ON-THE-GO ACCESS TO YOUR PROFESSIONAL NETWORK WITH LINKEDIN FOR NOKIA SYMBIAN WITH NFC (NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATIONS). YOU CAN NOW TRANSFER YOUR INFORMATION ONTO A NFC TAG OR ANY OTHER NOKIA NFC-ENABLED PHONE SIMPLY WITH A TAP. YOU WILL THEN BE ABLE TO QUICKLY READ LINKEDIN PROFILE INFORMATION ON A NFC TAG AND SEND AN INVITATION TO CONNECT.
    Symbian phones have always had the ability to be used as a wireless hotspot, but the feature was never built-in. Rather, using an app called JoikuSpot that has been used and loved by tether-ers everywhere. Works fine, just make sure you have 3G and Wifi turned on.
    JOIKUSPOT LIGHT TURNS YOUR PHONE TO AN OPEN WIFI HOTSPOT. CONNECT YOUR LAPTOP TO WEB USING YOUR PHONE AS A 3G WIFI HOTSPOT. FOR SECURING THE HOTSPOT WITH A PASSWORD, BEST INTERNET CONNECTION AND BATTERY LIFE, USE OF ALL INTERNET SITES AND PROTOCOLS, VPN AND EMAIL CLIENTS, FREE HOTSPOT NAMING, PLEASE GET JOIKUSPOT PREMIUM FULL VERSION AT NOKIA STORE. FOR BELLE USERS: REMEMBER TO TURN WI-FI ON ON YOUR PHONE WHEN USING JOIKUSPOT, AS BY DEFAULT IT IS OFF!
    Since you cant set a password on the ‘Lite’ free version, the Premium version does.
    JOIKUSPOT PREMIUM TURNS YOUR PHONE INTO A SECURED WIFI HOTSPOT. PREMIUM EDITION BRINGS YOU INTERNET SECURITY AND FULL INTERNET AND INTRANET (VPN) PROTOCOL. CONNECT MULTIPLE WIFI DEVICES (LAPTOPS, TABLETS) TO INTERNET BY USING YOUR PHONE AS A 3G WIFI HOTSPOT. FOR BELLE USERS: REMEMBER TO TURN WI-FI ON ON YOUR PHONE WHEN USING JOIKUSPOT, AS BY DEFAULT IT IS OFF!
    I have no idea why I bought this version too, but if you have to choose the Premium or the 2012 version, this is the one to go with. Allows you to maintain an online profile and keep a watch over your bandwidth usage. Otherwise identical to the premium version.
    JOIKUSPOT 2012 EDITION GETS YOU JOIKUSPOT PREMIUM FUNCTIONALITY ENRICHED WITH SET OF NEW FEATURES AND VALUE ADDED SERVICES. WITH 2012 ED, YOU CAN TURN YOUR PHONE TO A SECURE WIFI HOTSPOT, AND IN ADDITION TO 3.2 EDITION BASIC FEATURES, YOU CAN SET DATA CAPS AND USER LIMITS TO YOUR HOTSPOT. FOR BELLE USERS: REMEMBER TO TURN WI-FI ON ON YOUR PHONE WHEN USING JOIKUSPOT, AS BY DEFAULT IT IS OFF!
    I love Flickr. And the 808 has built-in Flickr sharing in the gallery, but it’s limited to one image at a time. FlickrUp lets you do batch uploads, which can be handy.
    FLICKRUP IS AN EASY WAY TO BROWSE & UPLOAD PHOTOS ON FLICKR® WEBSITE. IT NEEDS AN ACTIVE GPRS CONNECTION OR WI-FI (ON WIF-FI ENABLED DEVICES) TO ACCESS INTERNET. FLICKRUP IS DEVELOPED USING QTFLICKR API. NOTE: THIS PRODUCT USES THE FLICKR API BUT IS NOT ENDORSED OR CERTIFIED BY FLICKR.
    • YouTube (Pre-Installed):
    The Pre-installed YouTube app is more like a shortcut to the mobile site, but handles the job pretty okay. Still, it’s just a shortcut. To the mobile site. In the Symbian Browser.
    As the name suggests, lets you download YouTube videos to watch later.
    DOWNLOAD AND WATCH YOUTUBE VIDEOS ANYTIME. YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER IS THE APPLICATION THAT ALLOWS YOU TO BROWSE, WATCH AND DOWNLOAD YOUTUBE VIDEOS TO YOUR MOBILE.

    The Symbian browser is quite terrible. Luckily the guys at Opera released Opera Mobile and Opera Mini for Symbian devices, which handles the web browsing job pretty well. Opera Mini is technically more geared towards J2ME phones, while Opera Mobile is what’s recommended for Symbian. Uses much less data than Opera Mobile too.
    THE OPERA MINI BROWSER IS A TURBO-CHARGED WEB BROWSER FOR MOBILE DEVICES. THE OPERA MINI BROWSER USES OPERA’S SERVERS TO COMPRESS WEB PAGES SO THEY LOAD FASTER. YOU ALSO SAVE MONEY ON DATA CHARGES SINCE OPERA MINI USES A FRACTION OF THE DATA OF OTHER BROWSERS. OPERA MINI HAS A NEW INTERFACE THAT GIVES YOUR DEVICE A SLEEK, MODERN APPEARANCE. YOU CAN ALSO SHARE WEB CONTENT FROM OPERA MINI ON SOCIAL NETWORKS. OPERA MINI IS THE ULTIMATE BROWSER.
    THE OPERA MOBILE BROWSER GIVES YOU THE BEST BROWSING EXPERIENCE. OPERA MOBILE IS A FAST, SMOOTH MOBILE BROWSER. WITH OPERA MOBILE, BROWSING THE WEB ON THE GO IS MORE FUN THAN EVER. OPERA MOBILE HAS A NEW USER INTERFACE THAT GIVES YOUR DEVICE A SLEEK, MODERN APPEARANCE. YOU CAN ALSO SHARE WEB CONTENT FROM OPERA MOBILE ON SOCIAL NETWORKS. OPERA MOBILE IS THE ULTIMATE BROWSER WHEN CONNECTED OVER WIFI.
    Cutebox handles all your DropBox needs on Symbian. You can also use the Dropbox mobile site, but this is a lot more convenient. Doesnt support automatic-camera-uploads though.

    OFFICE:-

    • Microsoft Office Mobile, OneNote, BroadCast, Microsoft Lync, Microsoft Communicator, Microsoft Apps, Notes, Dicitionary, QuickOffice, Traveler, Adobe Reader, Zip (Pre-Installed):
    Whole bunch of business and office type apps come pre-installed with Symbian phones nowadays. Some of this comes along with the “Software Updater” app though. *shrug*

    An Evernote client for Symbian that keeps tracks of your notes. Nuff Said?
    NOTEKEEPER BRINGS THE POWER OF EVERNOTE TO YOUR NOKIA PHONE. WITH NOTEKEEPER, YOU CAN: – READ AND EDIT THE NOTES IN YOUR EVERNOTE ACCOUNT – CREATE NOTES – ORGANIZE NOTES IN NOTEBOOKS AND TAGS – SEARCH FOR A NOTE – VIEW RICH-TEXT, IMAGES AND ATTACHMENTS IN NOTES – FAVOURITE NOTES – OFFLINE NOTEBOOKS FOR SUPPORT, PLEASE CONTACT US BY EMAIL (SUPPORT@FORB.IN) OR TWITTER (@NOTEKEEPERAPP).
    With the Indian rupee being so bad nowadays (A Blogger’s life is tough, y’all), I have this on hand to keep a track of things. Does the job pretty well, with up-to-date rates.
    “CURRENCY CONVERTER” IS AN APPLICATION TO OFFER YOU REAL TIME CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATES. IT WILL HELP YOU A LOT WHILE EXCHANGING CURRENCY. SUPPORT MORE THAN 80 KINDS OF CURRENCY!
    Along with the currency converter, I also use Toshl to keep a track of my day-to-day expenses. Very useful!
    TOSHL IS A PERSONAL FINANCIAL TRACKER THAT HELPS YOU FOLLOW AND CHANGE YOUR SPENDING HABITS. IT’S QUICK AND EXTREMELY EASY TO USE: – EASY ADD EXPENSES WITH CUSTOM TAGS – SELECT THE TIME SPAN OF EXPENSES TO DISPLAY – SYNC FOR FREE WITH TOSHL.COM – EXPORT EXPENSES TO CSV, EXCEL, PDF, GOOGLE DOCS (VIA WEB) – USE BUDGETS FOR DETAILED FINANCIAL PLANNING – LOCK YOUR APP WITH A PIN CODE – USE MULTIPLE CURRENCIES (FOR TRAVELING) WITH AUTOMATIC EXCHANGE RATE – EDIT AND VIEW EXPENSES ON-LINE
    Symbian always had a built-in Unit Converter, but with Nokia Belle they mysteriously removed it. Strange thing to do, but here’s a decent alternative.
    EASY AND QUICK TO USE UNIT AND CURRENCY CONVERTER. CATEGORY WINNER IN THE CALLING ALL INNOVATORS 2011 CONTEST! CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATES ARE AUTOMATICALLY UPDATED FROM THE INTERNET.

    Hopefully nothing in this section makes your Nokia 808 PureView unstable. It works just fine on mine.
    • Files (Explorer), SW Update, Nokia Sync, Clock, Calculator, Log, Msg Reader are all built-in apps that have been on Symbian for ages now.
    Whole bunch of Built-in tools and apps. *shrug*
    This is a very handy little widget that you can place on your homescreen to give you quick toggles to brightness, Rotation, Bluetooth, Power Saving Mode, and Profiles. Ofcourse you can toggle profiles, Bluetooth and Wifi from the Symbian drop-down bar, but this is really useful for the brightness (low, medium, full brightness) toggles and the Rotation (Auto, portrait, landscape) toggles. The Rotation toggle switches off the built-in “Flip to Silence call/alarm” feature though, so please note that.
    FORCE CONTROL MAKES YOUR PHONE MUCH EASIER TO USE – THE MOST COMMON SETTINGS ARE JUST ONE CLICK AWAY! FORCE CONTROL WIDGET GIVES A QUICK ACCESS TO THE DEVICE’S KEY FEATURES DIRECTLY FROM THE HOME SCREEN. ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS: DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS, SCREEN ROTATION, BLUETOOTH, POWER SAVING, PROFILE.

    Does what the name states. Not very accurate with the 808 though.
    BATTERY INFO DISPLAYS THE BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL IN PERCENTAGE(%) AND IN AMPERES(MAH). IT ALSO SHOWS HOW LONG THE PHONE HAS BEEN CHARGED OR UNPLUGGED. YOU CAN ALSO SET “AUTOMATIC POWER SAVE” TIMER TO MAKE YOUR PHONE BATTERY LAST LONGER! FOR EXAMPLE BY SETTING IT ON FOR NIGHT TIME WHEN YOU ARE NOT USING PHONE! TO ADD BATTERY INFO WIDGET TO HOME SCREEN: ON TOP OF HOME SCREEN EMPTY ROW, LONG PRESS AND SELECT “ADD WIDGET” -> “BATTERY INFO” FROM THE LIST. DO NOT ADD ONLY SHORTCUT TO APPLICATION.
    Again, does what the name suggests. Not very accurate on the 808 either I’m afraid. Has a homescreen widget though.
    NOKIA BATTERY MONITOR SHOWS ESTIMATES OF REMAINING BATTERY LIFE AND STATISTICS OF BATTERY USAGE. IT ALSO PROVIDES POWER SAVE FEATURES AND REMAINING CHARGING TIME ESTIMATES WHEN CHARGER IS CONNECTED.

    Let’s you write NFC tags. Once in a while will randomly act up and tell you it wrote to a tag, but doesnt, heh. Works almost every time though.
    TO ENJOY THIS AND OTHER GREAT NFC APPLICATIONS, PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST PHONE SOFTWARE. NOKIA TAG WRITER IS AN APPLICATION FOR CREATING NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION TAGS. THE APPLICATION ALLOWS YOU TO SPECIFY THE CONTENT FOR A TAG, AND WRITE THIS CONTENT ON TO A TAG. BY TOUCHING A TAG WITH THE PHONE, YOU ARE ABLE TO SEND A TEXT MESSAGE, MAKE A PHONE CALL OR GO TO A WEB PAGE DEPENDING ON THE CONTENT OF THE TAG. THE APPLICATION CAN ALSO BE USED FOR BOTH ERASING AND READING TAG CONTENT.
    Gives you two extra buttons on your homescreen and menu. I’ve set mine to “multitasking” and “lock screen.” Also works in the drop-down menu as well:

    Brilliant app that brings Symbian Belle one step closer to MeeGo, by giving your folders a thumbnail preview of what’s inside. Needs to be updated manually if you change a folder, but still worth checking out in my opinion.
    VERSION 1.2. CONVERT YOUR FOLDERS ICONS TO SHOW CONTENT OF FOLDERS JUST LIKE MEEGO. EVERYONE WHO HAVE VER 1.0 HAVE TO DELETE IT AND REINSTALL TO THIS NEW VERSION. HOW TO USE: 1. CREATE FOLDERS AND PLACE YOUR APPS INSIDE USING STANDARD MENU. 2. IN THE APP, SELECT MENU AND TAP TO “UPDATE FOLDERS” ITEM. 3. WAIT FEW SECONDS UNTIL POPUP “FOLDER APPEARANCE HAS BEEN CHANGED” APPEARS. 4. EXIT THE APP. REPEAT AFTER CHANGES IN FOLDERS.
    My favourite app by far. Does a very simple job: replaces the standard lockscreen with a MeeGo/N9-like version that still shows you notifications and a clock, yada yada. Brilliant, and it works just fine with the 808. Once in a while it might not get along with Nokia Sleeping screen though.
    MEEGO OS-STYLE PHONE LOCK SCREEN. IN ORDER TO UNLOCK MOVE A FINGER HORIZONTALLY OR VERTICALLY ON THE SCREEN. INFORMATION ON MISSED EVENTS IS SHOWED. YOU CAN MANAGE THE BUILT-IN PLAYER FROM THE LOCK SCREEN INSTALL A BIT OF MEEGO ON YOUR PHONE!

    If you want that gorgeous Nokia Pure font on your 808, you can either use Yash’s guides for a hacked phone, or install Font Zoomer, which does the job well enough. For me, it made my 808 unstable. Random, but I had to use it to switch back to the default font(easy to do, so dont worry). But if it work’s for you, here ya go.
