Nope. I have updated to Anna FW this morning.
I can't seem to update Anna Update 1/2.
A lot of people had to reset their phone in order to properly update.
That's just wrong.

StylinRed 11-04-2011 04:28 PM

^^^ oh missed these comments

yeah update 1/2 2/2 had issues due to previous installs of QT Mobility

you dont need to reset your phone just download the latest QT Mobility and reinstall it and the updates will work




Also a deal made in the past with the former Nokia CEO is finally coming to fruition


Microsoft Office full functionality is coming to Symbian devices so powerpoint one note etc etc Cloud file storage/sharing services etc


here's a beta demo of these apps running on a Nokia E7 demoed at nokia world



it's expected that One Note/Powerpoint Broadcast/Document Connect/Lync etc will come in December 2011

and Word/Excel/Powerpoint will come before March 2012

Belle is getting released very soon

country variants are already appearing on Navifirm (releases always appear on Navifirm first and a week or less later Nokia will officially launch it)


So you can flash your N8 now if you haven't yet or wait for a lil bit and just download it through your phone

bcrdukes 11-29-2011 08:41 AM

Firmware upgrade on Nokia? :fuckthatshit:

StylinRed 11-29-2011 11:56 AM

Olive by Hooman Khallili — Kickstarter

These guys are filming a feature length movie entirely using a Nokia N8; they're taking donations on the webpage to try and complete the project and release it in theatres depending on the amount you donate you can get a "thank you" phone call from the director/writer all the way to a Producer credit


-lincolnboi- 01-16-2012 07:50 PM

Getting frequent restarts on my n8 :drunk:

StylinRed 01-16-2012 11:38 PM

:crazy2: might have to send it in


you could also try a reset something may be conflicting

Belle is coming out in a couple weeks finally that might fix it *crosses fingers*

StylinRed 01-30-2012 03:28 AM

So a bit of news



the official Belle update is going to be coming this first week of FEB or the beginning of the next (confirmed Feb 8 for SE Asia)


and as noted above Microsoft programs like Office, One Note etc is becoming available to Symbian

and today we saw the release of some of those apps for Belle devices

if you have a belle device just hook it up to Nokia Suite and download them

StylinRed 01-31-2012 01:21 PM

nobodies interested in the Office line?! :P

way2quik 02-07-2012 12:45 PM

Symbian Belle should be available to most, if not all, North American handset users.

My product code is on the list of availability. I can't wait to update my N8 when I get home.

bcrdukes 02-07-2012 02:05 PM

Whoa, that interface looks almost like the N9.

Yeah nokia was wanting to harmonize their os's (symbian, maemo/meego, s40) in terms of looks and to get similar functions available across the platforms (swipe)and to utilize QT to get the applictions cross platform

So belle is one of thesteps in getting this done Carla and Donna updates would have made them appear seemless

bcrdukes 02-07-2012 03:23 PM

Never again man.

RIP Nokia E71

way2quik 02-08-2012 08:57 PM

The dynamic email looks badass. Anyone with a non-flashed N8 show available Microsoft Business App update on their Ovi Suite?

No update for me.

StylinRed 02-08-2012 09:20 PM

supposedly they've taken those office updates and other updates down until belle updates have been downloaded enough so as to keep the server load manageable

StylinRed 03-12-2012 04:39 PM

The Nokia N9 music App QuasarMX has been ported over to Symbian


Its still in beta stages (a bit laggy) but i highly recommend trying it out its refreshing and has more menus/organization/etc than the stock player although i like the stock player a lot

Nokia Store: Download QuasarMX Beta and many other games, wallpaper, ringtones and mobile apps on your Nokia phone

QuasarMX

again its free so may as well give ita look

NOKIA N8 PureView what?


that's right, i didnt realize this at all but the N8 can work like the Nokia 808 does just far more limited


anyway if you set your camera to take 3mpx photos you can zoom in 2X in which case the camera will use the full 12mpx sensor

just like in video recording how you can zoom in 3x and then the camera will use the full 12mpx sensor (i knew about this for the video but not for stills)


check out this article that explains and demonstrates how it works on the N8

PureView Lite? Play with smart zooming - right now, with your N8

Now I used the 2x zoom provided by the N8's camera and took the shot again. Next, I was able to compare the detail being captured at the centre of the scene by using a photo editor on my desktop to crop into near 1:1 pixel level and look at the same monument detail. On the left, the cropped unzoomed image, on the right, the cropped 2x zoomed image:
its not the same as the 808 of course but it is a little bit
