Nokia Ovi Messenger

Lately, I’ve been tinkering with my Nokia X5 (Strawberry) which led me to download/buy new themes over Nokia Ovi Store at the same time, I had to open my Nokia Ovi account. Little did I know, I had two..actually, three! I forgot the password to the other one.

But it led me to thinking…why didn’t we use the Nokia Ovi Messenger so much? It’s almost the same with BBM and iMessage after all. In fact, it came before iMessage. The only time I used it (with my first account with Nokia Ovi) was last year July (same time I got my Nokia X5) with a close friend. But eventually, we didn’t chat much. The @ovi.com address is pretty neat. My boyfriend owned a Nokia C3 back then as well but it’s not just really his type loading up for subscription which is partly a reason. Nevertheless, I would be happy to use it sometime…the only thing is I have no one to chat there right now anyway.

CFW Symbian Anna 7.5 by Spanish Latino

I recently re-flashed my Nokia X6 to another CFW because for some reason, I couldn’t access my contacts – it would show that it can’t access the phone memory. It was also timely because I wanted to upgrade and along with CFW Symbian Anna 7.5 that I saw, you’ll be upgraded to version 4.0 firmware.

The following are the detailed informations on which improvements are included in the CFW:

  • New RAM memory optimization (Exclusive)
  • Tap Unlock with notifications enabled
  • New Web Browser v7.3 with lower toolbar
  • New Install Server correcting problems when installing some applications
  • Desk with original transparent Widgets Symbian Anna (Exclusive)

and many more. If you want to found out more and how to do it check this post from Symbian Tweet.

So far, I am loving this CFW for my Nokia X6, however, there are times that conversation becomes laggish -that is whenever I reach 100+ conversations and also when replying. I use RamBlow to cleanup the memory. It goes perfectly with daeva112′s Shiny Black Mini combined with application Menu Grid.

Since some s60 5th devices like mine does not get an update to be upgraded to Symbian Anna or Belle I think this is a good way to let users somehow ‘feel’ the interface.

I think this is available for most S60 5th Devices from Nokia, just make sure your firmware is compatible through the link above that goes to Symbian Tweet. If you do not know, you can check the code at the back of your mobile phone and through dialing *#0000#.

It must be only me, but it’s my first time to hear a phone that works with HDMI. Also, its camera is one kick-ass camera, come on, it’s 41 MP! With that maybe it can already do X-rays. Just kidding. But kidding aside, this phone must really be good considering that Nokia is slowly fading away in the mobile phone scenery. What are your thoughts about this?
