Skype for Symbian Belle

Hello.
I'm wondering if skype will be ever available for Symbian Belle. If I'm visiting m.skype.com, it says "Skype isn't available for your device". They say also that they'r working hardlly every day to add new devices, but it seems like they do nothing to add Symbian Belle. I had some version of skype that was "available" for Belle, but it was wery unsable, so it's better to use nothing instead of that version. So can't Nokia do anything about it? Or does anybody know if Skype will be available for Belle?
Regrads, Aušrius.

Skype for Symbian / Nokia Store Issue / Update Sky...

Well this is actually utterly and bitterly disapointing from Skype and / or Microsoft and could actually be embarassing... In what world are they living? Greed and more profit making? Excuse me but we did not see any official statement yet concerning the drop / end of Skype support of the Symbian platform.
1) How come Skype randomly disapears from the Nokia Store without warning or an official statement from Skype and / or Microsoft?
2) Why would there be discriminating towards Symbian / Nokia users who are forced to use an out of date version of Skype without support for Microsoft account login?
3) Isn't Skype / Microsoft shooting themselves into their own legs? Own goal? Why would I spend for a new Nokia phone using Windows 8 Mobile OS ( and I have the money to do it ) when I got a fully working Symbian Nokia that does all what I need? Carefull, this strategy might just make people disgusted of Nokia thus indirectly the Windows 8 Mobile OS.... as we all know of the relationship between Nokia and Microsoft nowadays.
4) The ridiculous statements I see on these forums about the phasing out of Symbian sometimes make me laugh. The developpers are just causing this artificial phase out by just being like rats leaving a sinking ship. Just show with proof that the Symbian needs a phase out... From what I know it is still very popular in Europe and Africa.
I am suprised that I had to have an outburst on these forums... I am a huge fan of Skype and the Microsoft products... Xbox and so on. But well anyway these were my points. I hope that this will be taken into consideration even though I am sure Symbian users would not ask too much, an update to be able to use the Microsoft account login would stop the inegality between the platforms concerning the ability to talk to our Msn / messenger contacts....
Regards.

Yes your Skype for Symbian FAQ (6/2013) was of great help a few days ago when I was surprised to find that Skype had mysteriously disapeared from the Nokia / OVI Store. I had an issue with the Skype install I had on my Nokia 500 running Symbian Belle, on which I had installed Skype from Nokia / OVI store since last year, so I had to un-install it. So I went for a re-install but nothing... no Skype on Nokia / OVI Store so I tried your FAQ.
There is an issue from this part of the FAQ:

I signed on my Nokia / OVI account because this was the version I needed for Symbian Belle but the file downloaded wasn't of .sis extension but was of .dm extension. So I couldnt install it.
I managed to get an alternate install file of Skype v2.1.0.23 ( latest and maybe last for Symbian Belle ) if this can be of any help to anyone using Symbian Belle:

Skype for symbian such a shame

Hi nokia community,
skype for symbian on my belle nokia 701 is a complete disappointment, not even a single feature is new.
It is same old skype for symbian packed with new touch UI, and why doesn't skype support video call for latest belle devices?
Seriously it feels like living in old times, having all the hardware required on my device but still unable to make use of front cam , is nokia doing anything in this regard?
After all nokia and microsoft are partners now, they should take care of things like these, why we symbian users are left behind without any useful productivity apps like other leading OSes in market?
Please let me know your views, and is there any way I can use my device's for video calls (other than network video calls)?
Your support would be highly appreciated.

The biggest problem I have on Skype for S^3 (N8) is that voice calls are completely useless, the other end can never understand what I'm saying. This is on 3G and Wifi networks with no other apps running in background.
The second biggest problem I'm having is that after sending an SMS (via Skype app) the message screen does not disappear and there's no confirmation that the message was sent.
I agree, Skype is completely useless with voice calls, I at first put this down to the other party trying to connect to me using video calling but after reading the above I wonder whether that was the case.

Nokia has already abandoned Symbian long time ago in favour of Windows Phone.

New apps for symbian belle

Hi. When will new apps available for symbian belle phones?. We can see that in android phones are flooded with apps.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is a huge number of apps for Symbian.
Up to about 2010 it was the leading operating system in smartphones.
What Nokia don't have is the Apple IOS type of well organised app shop. A lot of Symbian app developers sold their apps directly, and a lot have withdrawn the apps from the shop for some bizzare reason. Those in the latter group who don't sell them directly are a problem and you have to google for the .sis file and eventually you will find one that installs.
Both the Nokia app shop and the Apple app shop are 95% useless garbage, however, and that will always be the case for smartphones because there are loads of app developers who think they are going to get rich by writing some near-useless app and selling a million of them for €0.50 each.
"Symbian is in the late stages of it's "death" now"
That's interesting. Can you post the date my phone is going to stop working? With 26,746 posts you are probably well connected and know the exact date.

Why Skype for Symbian been discontinued?

Please Start Again Skype for Symbians ..

The reason is quite simple, this is a capitalist economy they had got the money from you, Nokia E7 is five times more in price tag than ordinary Android phone, but they are focusing on Android phones.
Irony of the fact is same nokia whom gain the value from same platform, symbian.Now ignoring it and running behind unseen wishes. It is not confirm they can gain the same value again or be lost in the pages of history but kept running...the beauty of this system.

About Skype for Symbian

Is there any indication as to how long the Symbian Skype client will continue to function?Thanks.

We have been working hard to make Skype for mobile better than ever, and adopting Skype cloud enables us to drive improved battery life, improve connections and introduce exciting new features. However Symbian wasn’t built for the cloud-connected world, so we are retiring the Skype for Symbian app and focusing on bringing the best possible experience to the most popular mobile platforms: Windows Phone, iOS and Android. The Skype for Symbian app will be removed from the Nokia store today, however users that have already downloaded the app can continue to use it.
UPDATED on August 18th:
We are now permanently retiring all Skype apps for Symbian phones. As a result, within the next few weeks, you’ll no longer be able to sign in and use Skype on any Symbian phone.
You can still stay in touch with friends and family using Skype on an Android device, Nokia Lumia phone or desktop computer. You can sign into them all using the same Skype account. The latest versions of Skype for all supported devices are available here.

Skype for Symbian on N86 8MP

A full featured Skype for Symbian is finally available. You can get it in Ovi store or visiting skype.com/m. It's available even for old models like N81 and N95.
This ought to be good news. But for us having the "forgotten" phone Nokia N86 8MP, one discover that Skype tells "Sorry, Skype is unavailable for your mobile.", and you can't download it. Ovi tells you "Sorry, this item is not available for the Nokia N86 8MP." Why??
But there is an option! You need to go to the Skype for Symbian developer zone https://developer.skype.com/SymbianSkype They provide a link to the latest production release http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-symbian-s60v3. Just download it, and install it on your N86 8MP. It works splendid

It installs and works sort of, chat works but thats about it.
May I take this time to express my disgust over the general state of the N97/Skype. I paid £500 for mine and have had nothing but sodding issues over sodding issue plus being lied to constantly by Nokia. Accuweather refuses to work for ANY city/town in the UK (yes I have tried every single one!) Every other country in the world gets weather info but not the uk

Plan on getting Instagram for Symbian Belle

Plan on getting Instagram for Symbian Belle

Support for Nokia Belle is ongoing and will be maintained upto and including 2016. Instagram is owned and operated by Facebook. As they use a propriety system and do not allow 3rd party development for their system it would be upto them to create an app for Symbian. You might want to contact them to make your wishes known.

Skype for Symbian beta on n97

I found the following:
"Am afraid i dont know about the N97 native client but you could try the new Symbian Beta (not officially supported for the N97 but some users are reporting they have installed it and it works) at least until the Native client gets released anyway."
at this link http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=488381
Has anyone attempted this with an N97? What issues/success have you encountered? Hoping for some feedback to help me decide if I want to attempt this.

It installs and works sort of, chat works but thats about it.
