*Hot* X-plore v1.33 for S60v3 and S60v5
Posted on 08. Jul, 2009 by geek in Applications
I hope all of you are familiar with this file manager application i.e., X-plore developed by lonelycatgames.com. X-plore is one of the best file manager in the market.
X-plore is available in two forms:
- Free version: in which you will have to wait some seconds before the app starts or closes.
- Paid Version: In this version, no delay while opening or closing
It becomes annoying for some users to wait while opening or closing the app. Here is a version in which there is no more wait.
Nokia Image Exchage is Updated
Posted on 09. Jun, 2009 by geek in Applications, Symbian
The most important new feature is to allow manual uploading of images to the server for sharing, backing up and transferring to PC. New users can select upon the first start of the application whether they wish to use the full automatic back-up or choose to opt for manual control instead. Our existing users can also change to manual uploads mode via the Settings on the mobile client. This should reduce the need for flat-fee data plans considerably.

Switch off v2.0.2 S60v3/v5: Swtich Your mobile any Time
Posted on 11. May, 2009 by geek in Applications
It works on phones that are running on platforms Symbian s60v3 and s60v5. On my Nokia 5800, the program also works.
The program turns off the phone at a specified time interval. Disabling only occurs after a specified period of user inactivity.
For example, if you turn off the start of the interval between 22:00 and 30 minutes of inactivity, when the time comes, the program will check that the user does not click more than half an hour, if so, the program will immediately switch off the phone at 22:00. If not, when the half-hour wait since the last key, and only then switch off the phone. After the end of the interval stop the program will not attempt to switch off the phone.
Nokia N78 uptaded to v20.149
Posted on 25. Jan, 2009 by geek in News
In the last couple of weeks Nokia released several Firmware updates. Now a update for the N78 is available. Version 20.149 is available via Nokia Software Updater or also over the air. The N78 features UDP so that all your data should be save but back up your phone anyway. Below you can find the changelog.
Changes/Improvements/New features I have noticed from v12.046 to v20.149:
Standby screen:
*While scanning for wireless networks in the home screen, instead of saying “No networks found” as in the past, it says “No WLANs available”, also some other minor name changes in this menu.
*Share online icon in standby screen seems to be different
*When going back to the music player via the standby screen, it goes straight into the player without a fading in/out transition as it did before when Theme Effects are turned on (an instantaneous response). However, for going into other sections from the standby screen the fade in/out transition still occurs.
*When Music Player is operating, and seeing the track name on the screen, and then when one song ends and goes to the next track, the speed at which this happens is much improved although not flawless (there is still some lag).
*Scrolling up and down through the entries in the standby screen is very fast and not slow like before.
Call log, Contacts and calling function:
*Calling speed (from standby screen to Contacts or Call Log) and transition to call/disconnected screens much faster and improved
*Faster resume of music playback after call is ended
*Volume bar is changed from ten dotted increment to continuous coloured volume triangle (this has also been reflected in other menus and options throughout the phone)
Maps:
*Maps updated to version 2.0
Music Player:
*Much faster interface and speed through all menus
*Pressing volume keys is much improved and faster and more accurate response than before (where it may have taken time in the past for the volume level to update)
*Music controls (i.e. Rewind, Fast forward, play/pause, stop) are no longer the same colour as the matching theme, now it is just the same light green colour across all themes
*Visualisations are still a bit slow, but faster than before
Photos:
*Transition into the Photos application is much faster than before
*Scrolling through photos and videos and the like is still jerky and thumbnails still take a while to be updated from pixelated to clear thumbnails
Settings:
*In Themes, there is a new theme called Music (very yucky looking I must admit)
*Power saver now includes “Now playing” option, so when the backlight goes off, the currently playing song and time are displayed on the screen for a number of seconds before disappearing. This occurs before keypad lock is activated, and when any key is pressed, the names of the song light up (in green or red). Also when going from one track to the next while this screensaver is activated, the date is displayed briefly.
Other:
*General speed improvements across all menus and applications
*Help function is much faster and speed improved
*New help topics added to Help function
*Speed dial now works without any lag
*New RealPlayer interface and version updated (where the RealPlayer screen is no longer displayed but grey bars on top and bottom of the video)
*About application has been updated for the year dates so that they are all “2009″.
*Installation of applications and refresh of available applications within the Application Manager is much improved and faster (although icons for installed applications are now not displayed)
*”Application update” added to Applications
*Carousel menu has new options under each heading
*Navi-wheel seems to have been tweaked a bit more
*Background light settings actually work now
*Truncated email-account login name fixed
