Garmin Mobile XT on Symbian S60 5th Edition

Hello.I bought Nokia 5230 and tried to install Garmin Mobile XT but unsuccessfuly.I tried different versions of the program but when installed it doesn't start.What could i do, which version to install?Please help! Is there any chance of resolving this problem.Thank you.

Hi
Yah INT/5.00.50 and TW/5.00.60 on the N5230 work just fine. 5.00.50 is the last International version but it has a bug when navagating in landscape view, (the map looks out of sync, streets don't line up on the left and right side of the screen). That happens on the N97, N97 mini, N5230, and the Samsung HD, others say it happens on other Nokia phones, but I can't say that because I only have the phones I listed. Anyhow in the Tawain version 5.00.60 this was fixed. As a sidenote it has been rumored that Garmin has discontiued develpoment of there mobile XT product for Symbian because Nokia is offering their own product for free. But map updates will always work no matter what and in my opinion Garmin even without any more updates is and always will be a better mapping program than they very buggy Nokia/OVI Maps 3*..Lastly I am using Garmin on all my phones because Nokia/OVI maps 3.* turn by turn doesn't work properly on any of the phones I have, it is off by 250yards, (in back of) the actually position, (it tells you turn 250 yards after you already turned, crazy!) Whereas Nokia.OVI Maps V2.* never had that problem. I really wish Nokia would fix there current bugs before adding more buggy features...

Hostsfile (hosts file) on Symbian S60 5th edition ...

Does anyone know if a hostsfile (or similar function as a hosts file) can be installed and how it can be used on Symbian S60 5th edition (for the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic)?
I've found on Wikipedia: ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_file ) that it should be possible, it specifies folders where the file should be:
Symbian OS 6.1-9.0
C:\system\data\hosts
Symbian OS 9.1+
C:\private\10000882\hosts (AllFiles capable only)
but there is no more details about the needed file format, and I couldn't find any application dealing with a hostsfile on Symbian. Apparently, there used to be the Appgate Mobile Client, but I can't find it anymore.
I would appreciate any help/clue about this. Thank you.

Firmware 30 released symbian s60 5th edition

the new firmware is great for 5530 xpress music the music players new look is great when you scroll down the first letter of the song name appears on your screen and i noticed that the sound quality has improved when using headphones before i would leave out any song with the slitest bit of bass but now i can listen to them all, the update has really improved from firmware 20 version 30 is much more stable before is your phone crashed you would most likely have no response from the phone and would have to take the battery out but now all you do is lock the phone and unlock it wait a few seconds until the clock reappears on your homescreen and away you go,the web browser has had a annoying update it automatically go to fullscreen when you are browsing and is a pain when you try to browse a big web page.
Symbian Developer, if I can help out just give me a bell.

Have you checked for firmware updates?

Check Frequency Used on S60 5th edition (850 or 19...

Hey,
I have a nokia 5800 xpressmusic (unlocked USA version.) It runs S60 5th edition.
I am considering getting a phone which only supports AT&T's 1900 mhz, and not their 850 mhz (it is primarily a European phone which also has 900/2100 mhz.)
Without getting into a discussion on which phone to get, can anyone tell me how to check what frequency is in use on my 5800?
Thanks,
Mike

There is no tool that I know of that will show which frequency is in use. But I do know that in most major cities AT&T uses the 1900Mhz signal and they use the 850Mhz signal in rural areas. The 850 towers are converted analog towers and the 1900 towers are dedicated digitals.
Using a Non US phone on AT&T's network, you will get Spotty to Good service in major cities (if the phone is a quadband phone) and limited to no service in rural areas. Most of the time the Non US phone will be on AT&T free roaming networks most likely with T-Mobile(T-Mobile uses 2100Mhz in major cities); it will most likely say AT&T on the phone and you will not be charged a roaming fee. I hope this helps.

What the hell are you talking about??? N97 and 5800 are different??? N97 for rich-mans??? Hahahahha Just see this comparison, and you will notice, that N97 and 5800 is almost totally the same device:
http://s60blog.com/2008/12/nokia-n97-vs-nokia-5800-xpressmusic/
N97 just more with the keyboard, and hopefully 5800 will get the widget-homescreen too, as both of them has the same operation system (s60v5), resolution and touchscreen...

S60 5th edition/ Nokia 5800 & N97

With the Nokia 5800 being the first Nokia to have the s60 5th edition OS, and N97 soon to follow, who thinks that the 5800 is being used as a end-user testing device for the upcoming N97.
dont get me wrong, i its not a bad idea, but i just wonder if 5800 owners will get some of the features which has been shown on the N97 such as live widgets on the home screen for example which looks absolutely brilliant.
what do you guys out there think?

S60 5th edition and emoticons

Hi, I just updated my C6-00 to version 40.0.021 (the 05/2011 update). It seems that this version enabled graphical emoticons in SMS messages. This is undestandable as the feature has been requested on a regular basis, but why was it added with no option to turn them off? The character combinations that are used to make emoticons are not always meant as such, and in those cases this force-fed feature is definitely not wanted. Please don't bother to offer downgrading as a solution, the previous version had its own severe problems which I'm hoping to see fixed in the future.

Watch this video. Facebook app on s60 5th edition.

Watch this video, it show the Nokia n97 running a facebook application that runs similar to the iphone app.
why has this not yet been released for the Nokia 5800. instead, we're stuck with the stupid mobile site which doesnt work well at all.
what do you think?

When you access Facebook through the phone's built-in browser, the Facebook website detects that you are using a mobile browser and displayes the mobile version of the web site. Most websites today detect your browser and act accordingly, this allows them to check if your browser is compatible with their content and advise you if you need to upgrade.
In the case of mobile browsers, it gives you the less data-intensive version, but this does not mean you can't select the "Full site" link at the very bottom of the mobile page. This is only advisable, however, if you are connected via WLAN or have a fixed-rate data plan, as Facebook will pile up the megabytes pretty quick.

How to set up proxy on Symbian S60 3rd edition?

Everybody knows how to set up the proxy settings for Nokia web browser. But does anybody know how to set up proxy for use in any applications? For example, I would like to use Google maps app. through proxy server.
Thanks in advance.

I don't have a proxy set-up to try this, so you'll have to give it a go yourself. If memory serves correctly the network connections (WiFi/Cellular) are shared and reused, if already open, by any application requesting them on the phone.
Is it possible to initiate the connection in the web browser, logging in and negotiating whatever gateway as necessary there, then with the browser still open going to the application you want to use?
I know that when I used a free point in a hotel I was at last year you had to log in to their system via a webpage with a password. I was able to do this and then use other applications on my phone like SicFTP, eBuddy!, Windows Live etc. without any issues where they all failed to work previously, when I had not logged in via the browser.
I hope this helps, I'm about to need to do this very same thing when I go travelling in a few weeks too!

Contacts download app for S60 5th

Hello everybody,
does anyone know if the contacts download application for car kits is in the pipeline for S50 5th edition?
I cannot access my phonebook from my built in kit, it worked with my E60 and the download application.
Thanks,

A bit late, however, I had the same issue today. Nokia added a variant for Symbian/S60 5th Edition in the first quarter of 2010. Here are the links …

Problem with S60 2nd Edition FP2 and mobility pack

When i run the sample game from mobility pack with the S60 2nd Edition FP2 the bottom part of the phone display seems to freeze and wont refresh. I have that problem with the emulator and with a real phone (6630). Does anyone experienced the same problem? I tried with other platform SDK and it runs ok. There's a screenshot of what happens.....
http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/9373/s602ndfp2le5.png

And I must add something else, I can't format the memory card, I have some important applications installed on the memory card... and I don't know how I can move them to phone's memory, a new memory card or take backup...
I appreciate if someone help me with both problems.
