S. stjorge. whA. 11 Dec 2007 @w0QQ, Bro do you still remember your 1st post to me dated Dec.
@stjorge i have applications that use accelerometer. Like the 'invaders', 'moving ball' and 'ball maze'. Rotateme v2.0 and nokmote is not out yet but before that there are already applicatiion the uses the accelerometer.
Dont post if u dont know what your writting boyjorge oh stjorge. Peace dude=) Those Games of yours that you have installed might have already the Accelerometer embedded in the installer! NAKATSAMBA ka tol!
The new N95 8GB is a modest update of that design. Like the original, it's an unlocked GSM device that works with both AT&T and T-Mobile SIM cards. The N95 8GB trades in its silver shell for a more fashionable black body, along with a slightly larger screen. GSMArena.com: Nokia N95 8GB user opinions and reviews - page 381. What's the benefit of updating Flash Lite player? Ours come with pre-installed version 2.0. I found this site Does anyone know how to update current version of flash player?
The First time I have installed my RotateMe Beta 3, I forgot about the Accelerometer! I was surprised that program didn't work!

Later, i was able to resolve!. Rating 0. F. Flowers. MF. 11 Dec 2007 I've had my n95 8gb for about a month now and am very pleased with it, though I do have a slight problem watching full movies on my handset.
I can convert the dvd to avi and I use the pc suite to convert the avi file to mpeg 4 but once I put it onto the handset I can watch about 30 to 40 mins of the film and the picture goes black, the sound is still there which is still very clear but I can't figure out where am going wrong, I've also tried different films but they all do the same thing around the same time. Can anyone help with this as it's very frustrating. Rating 0.
Considering the fact that our device is referred to (by Nokia) as 'Multi-Media Computer', it is only natural that we'd upgrade the RAM on our computers. I guess that if 1% of the customers who like such an upgrade, would write their expectations to Nokia, they may consider something. I also agree this device has a huge potential; The CPU is like a prisoner in a small RAM cell. It may be technically too complex for Nokia to support a mass upgrade.
On the other hand, no one would have thought Apple would provide 100$ credits to their iPhone customers, so it won't hurt trying. I would pay 60$ for 128MB. Then again you have fixed the ram issue but then their is the issue of battery and GPS sensitivity, Larger Screen. You fix one problem but leave many others, thats what the Nokia 8GB unfortunately is here for. Its not, Nokia have always crippled their phones in one way or another with dismal design decisions. But then nokia have always been a company for the masses rather than using a phone and saying 'you know what would be good and not irritiating'. They stopped innovating years ago where as they used to be the masters of it ( snake anyone ).
They got big and started taking a backseat looking at what was popular then doing a hash job of putting it in a phone which is why they lost a lot of their smartphone customers over to Sony and HTC and I think they are slowly realising that the 'I want a cheap phone' market is slowly disapearing and simply flooding the market with 80 different handsets isnt going to cut it. Theres now to much choice now LG, Samsung etc and its all slowly eating into their market share. They are once again trying to improve on the smartphone bandwagon but the The N95 offers very little new (all of these features such as GPS have been in smartphones for years and guess what. They were better ) The N95 however tempted me enougth to go and buy one and as much as I love it (tis a great handset) im still seeing the same mistakes that just make you slap your head and say WHY! The N95 has many but the basic list (imo) of faults. Poor GPS reception ( honestly even with A-GPS my cheap tacky receiver from Ebay gets a quicker lock and it was all of what £20 and no AGPS? On a £500 smartphone I don't expect to be waiting 2 minutes for a Fix in a 2 degree car freezing my nuts off ) the 8GB model does not fix this, or the fact the location wins spacker of the year award ( Nokia claim the gps was designed with walking in mind.
With approx 2 hours of use ummm yeah right well done nokia screw you over when you have walked 4 miles and the battery dies leaving you stranded in a field ) everyone with an ounce of brain realises that car navigation is where its at you dont buy a mapping company and provide turn by turn instructions for walkers the mistakes have already been made ( tom tom et al ) get a decent chipset and allow the phone to aquire a quick fix and work with dodgy heat reflective windscreens etc. No charging from the USB ( oh god why this almost makes it the laughing stock of the smart-phone world simply because docking it or plugging it into the USB will kill your battery in about few hours when it could be charging it ) again the 8GB model does not fix this. Finally a mainstream memory card format, no going off on a tangent with obscure formats such as RS-DVMMC but a standard format and a standard connectivity and oh wait what? Dismal Battery - Well a 25% boost is nice and I suppose helps get you to work if you forget to charge it at night BUT the phone is small enough and light enough to warrant a increase the size by about 7-10mm in all directions to allow for a 1600-1800mah battery. Lack of Ram - This has been addressed quite well in the 8GB imo the ONLY benifit of the new model (along with the slightly larger screen which wouldn't be an issue if they didn't try making it too compact) Now the cons - 8GB is very nice but Nokia in true 'make it cheap release it quick' style they have dumped the SD slot and chucked a mass storage chip on board.
Epic fail giving you an SD slot AND making the primary on board memory 8GB would have been the logical choice but I guess doing what they have was just easy. Now the phone has no expansion and although 8GB is a lot of memory in a few months we will have 8GB MicroSD cards not only that but they will be hot swapable. The N95 even with 1GB hot swappable cards wins purely because in a years time when you have a few thousand MP3s and your phone is complaining that it cant store camera photos you will know why. No Camera Shutter - This being a con? Only time will tell but every smartphone ive owned as at some point ended up with degrading quality as the plastic cover gets scratched by keys etc in the pocket. My last HTC phone I had to take a large sharp imstrument and remove the plastic cover it was that bad which I regretted as the lens got filled with fluff.
Only time will tell if my N95-1 shutter is more protective but I can see that cover (with me and no doubt the majority of the market) will get owned in about 8 months and the minor scratched will show up big style on the 5MP photos. Releasing 8GB models of their old phones is just standard nokia tactics from what Ive seen. Every phone thay have released has met the scorn of their customers when they release pretty mucht he same phone but better to taunt thier ever loyal fan base. We all knew it was going to happen, but to happen so quickly? They could have done a LOT better both in terms of fixes and sales ( of the classic ) by holding of on the replacement until people where chomping at the bit.
Why is as usual beyond my understanding. Re: the GPS point, I agree. My personal opinion is that they should have used sirf3.
Its the whole walking argument again. Imo any satnav device needs to be plugged in.
Regardless of device, its going to have screen on, voice instructions, be working a little to calculate route and provide instructions, and obviously get a GPS signal. Having said that, my 6110 seems to be a world apart from most N95's.
I get a signal usually quite quick (I never use AGPS due to my data charges), and Im sure its the same chipset (sirf2LP) thats used in the N95. Perhaps better placed, as it is in the slide at the top of the phone. Windows mobile is still a little too unwieldy for me, but I would have moved over to them had there been a device to tempt me.
What I want is a phone which: Isnt too big - N95/6110 size is the max Has built in GPS reciever Has a keypad - touch screen is too slow and unwieldy for me Has a decent camera - 2MP at least, preferably with a flash. Build quality and reliability I can trust - nokia are generally good for this, but I stay away from their N range for obvious reasons.
Has all the usual stuff - bluetooth, standard mini USB interface, expandable memory, etc. At present, there is no windows mobile device which fits the bill. As for the extra RAM, I severly doubt anyone will get it working smoothly, if at all.
