Skype on N95 8Gb and N96

Is one able to use the phone as the camera and mic via the PC to connect to Skype? As we do not live in a 3G area at present and I have broadband at home I thought that this may be an option.

If you have wireless broadband then www.vyke.com may be what you are looking for I use it and it works fine.

My sources tell me that the Spiderman 3 movie was only available to some markets.
The file is DRM protected (see link that korngear provided) so it cannot be copied and played on another device.
The movie itself is Pan&scan to fit the 4x3 aspect ratio of the screen. And the version I saw was in English with English subtitles but I'm not sure if this is different in each country, maybe each country has it's own language subtitiles.
Just one question loco:
what was the video specs?
I mean the bitare, FPS, etc and is it possible to encode Spidey 3 better than that one?
You know my PSP encode

N95 8gb and sling box ring through?

i have the european version of the n95 8gb and was wondering if there is a way when watching the sling box or browsing the web you can set it so my calls would come through so i dont miss any calls while in an active edge session/...( i also have tmobile and that means anything???

Hi and thanks for your advise. Tried it twice without success. The software loads onto N95 fine, deleted pairings as instructed, ran programme and it just stayed at the "processing" stage forever, I waited 15 minutes on both occassions without it actually doing anything. Never mind worth a try! Thanks again. The phone is of no use to me when I am in my car for work, which is most of the time, so I will be going back to Sony Ericsson as soon as I can get a K850i.

To People Who Migrated from N95 8GB to N96; Are yo...

N96 has been on the market for a while now, and I just wanted to know, the N96 owners WHO USED TO OWN N95 8GB, are you happier or more satisfied with N96?
Especially, in gaming, are you more satisfied with N96's gaming experience?
Thanx.

I'm far from happy with my N96 and wish I'd not bothered 'upgrading'. It's more a down-grade to what can only be seen as a cheap version of the ever so popular N95 and N95 8GB.
I'm not entirely bothered that non of the UK networks support DVB-H but it's the basics where the N96 is a complete let down... Firstly the build quality is shocking, cheap thin plastic which means the battery cover feels like its going to fall off at any second then there's the extremely poor battery life, sluggish text messaging, slow application opening, poor colour quality of the camera - not to mention the old System Error that pops up every now and then (even with up to date firmware) - well worth the £480 Nokia are charging for a sim-free version eh?!
If you do a spot of Googling you'll find thousands of unhappy N96 users!
Sort it out Nokia!

Differences between N95 8gb and E71

Hi
Just wondering if anyone can shine a light on this one.
I currently have an N95 8GB which does not show the contacts when connected to my cars bluetooth. Seat say its todo with the Symbian s60 s/ware but a friend has just bought an E71 which works fine , am i right in that the E71 still has symbian s60.
Anyone know what the difference might be.
Thanks

The E71 is also based on Symbian/S60.
http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/E71
And it supports the following Bluetooth profiles: A2DP, AVRCP, BIP, DUN, FTP, GAP, GAVDP, GOEP, HFP, HID, HSP, OPP, SAP, SPP.
The N95 8GB:
http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/N95_8GB
Bluetooth profiles listed for it: A2DP, AVRCP, BIP, BPP, DUN, FTP, GAVDP, GOEP, HFP, HSP, OPP, SAP.
So, comparing these lists, we can see the following differences:
E71 has these, but the N95 8GB doesn't have them: GAP, HID, SPP
The N95 8GB has BPP, but the E71 doesn't.
Now if we look at what GAP, HID and SPP are...
GAP = General Access Profile; basis for other Bluetooth profiles, so it not being listed for both devices is a bit puzzling (could just be an omission on the web site).
SPP = Serial Port Profile (for virtual serial communications port emulation); not relevant for carkit things.
HID = Human Interface Device profile (for Bluetooth keyboards, etc.); not relevant for carkit things.
What are or should be relevant for carkit use is: HFP (Hands-Free Profile) and PBAP (Phone Book Access Profile).
The interesting thing here is that PBAP is not listed at all, but your experience with the E71 seems to indicated that it does support PBAP.
Anyway, I'd say you need it for the N95 8GB, too, if it isn't there. Perhaps you can get it (or a working version) with a firmware update?

Nokia N95 8GB and Windows 7 Home Premium Dutch

:robotmad:Ladies and readers, I have, including a Nokia N95 8GB the desktop is new and draaid on windows home premium en when I Vista had worked with the Nokia everything is perfect. Now that I do I get windows 7 have not been contract more Nokia N95 8GB through the desktop computer get the notification that the software is not good, but which I have already removed and again installed but there is also clear the need to install software that it is old windows and vista so there is not to WINDOWS 7 I will take place this is a major disaster for Nokia that, over time inspeeld on a real upgrade for the desktop so that there is also normal contact with the Nokia N95 8GB can be made. why it is not on the openingspagina of Nokia if it would have been! We are nevertheless service to clients and should do so we get a good appliance bought and not a WHICH CANNOT comuniseren with the computer since Microsoft now Windows 7 sells and what I am therefore in the original state I can install by an approved fitter. Therefore, I would like to see that Nokia a link sends so that I can make both wireless contact and the mobiletelefoon can facilitate upgrading and data can uitwissellen. Otherwise, this after 3 pieces my last Nokia. vetaling Babylon

Dude i think u just spoke french!
Sorry to say that i didnt get a word that you said.
I assume you have upgraded to windows 7 and are unable to use or install nokia pc suite.
First of all it aint nokia's fault that windows 7 came after they had uploaded the setup.
All you need to do is download the pc suite to you computer or laptop or whatever it is ... then right click on the setup and click compatibility mode nd just keep pressing next next next.
Im sure your pc suite will be installed then and you will be able to use your computer to transfer everything to and from the phone..
Have fun and lemme know if it worked.
Chances of workin = 101% because im on windows 7 aswell

N95 8GB and Windows 7 Connection Issue

I'm trying to connect my Nokia N95 8Gb to Ovi Suite but continually receive errors upon driver installation. This is no doubt to related to the fact I'm using Windows 7 64-bit. Back on my old box running XP; no problems whatsover.
I swear I must have tried almost every possible fix under the sun; those that I could think of and those that I googled. Tried PC Suite and Ovi Suite. Different drivers, versions, windows settings.. With each failed attempt reverted again (via Total Uninstall).
The latest version of Ovi Suite (3.1.1.85) has not helped either.
It appears to be the same two drivers Windows has trouble installing; and if not both, then almost certainly the "LCIF" driver.
This problem may or may not have been encountered/solved; please point me in the right direction if it has been fixed, as I could not find it. Any help appreciated!
Screenshots (the first is from a different installation):

If the issue not being connected for being in a 64bit os, then there is a work around if your windows 7 version is windows 7 prof, or utimate. You can download XP Mode, in which windows XP is running virtual in Windows 7. I tried it with legacy in-house created applications for XP & it works, even all the drivers.
Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!
If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

N95 8gb and standard number

When I write an SMS, I'm always asked which number on the specific contact I wish to send it. Of course, I wish to send it to that contacts cell phone number.
Is there any way to set this as default, and avoid the question which number for that contact I wish to send to?

N95 8GB and .sisx

Hello,
i can't install a .sisx file - when i get such an .sisx file the phone will open the notes-application and i can read die .sisx-file there - but the installation is not starting ...
what can i do for use such .sisx files?
thx

It is something to do with the server it is being downloaded from in which the server doesn't have proper MIME type configured for SISX files.
S60 phones require the server to have it configured (MIME type tells the terminal that the file is a Symbian OS installer) or else it considers that the file is plain text and opens it in the notepad.
If you can download the file using a computer and install it via the USB then it should work, or wait for that server to fix the problem.

N95 8GB and emails

Am I missing something?
How do I go about saving downloaded emails?
Can't seem to find any option for this.
Any help apreciated
PJ

Thanks guys.
I simply want to be able to move the email to a user folder for later reference like I did with my old N73.
As it stands now the emails disappear and there's no option for moving to a different folder.
Thanks for the suggestion but in all seriousness: having to copy paste emails as a workaround is a joke considering the capabilities of this phone.
Very strange. I must be missing something.

Advantages of N96 over N95 8GB?

I have looked at the N96 and am wondering what advantages it would really have over the N95 8GB that I currently own. I know that there is more memory and the option to put in a memory card in the N96 but at this point I am not near the limit of my phone's 8GB capacity. The N96 looks a little trimmer but this is at the cost of using a smaller battery with less capacity than the N95 8GB. I understand that there is a potential for watching TV but I have heard that the type of broadcast the N96 is compatible with is not available in most countries (I live in the US).
At this point there don't seem to be enough advantages for me to want to lay out the money to buy the N96 when the N95 8GB works as well as it does, especially as I read about the bugs in the first release.
Comments anyone?

At the moment, advantages are,
Better Screen,
Better loudspeaker quality, but its volume is lower than n95 8gb.
Better overall soundquality in music player(negligeable difference)
And, it has Symbian s60 Feature pack 2.
A little slimmer than n95 8gb and a kick stand.
It has 4 media keys play/pause, stop, forward, rewind on the front panel so its more convenient than sliding the other way.
Besides these, i have yet to find out more advantages(you already said the memory part).
I think you should hold on to your n95 8gb, atleast for now, and wait for a couple of months when there are few more firmware upgrades, as those should iron out the bugs in n96.
On a side note: I didnt see n96 as a worthy upgrade to n95 8gb besides the memory part. So i think you should skip on n96.
wht i heard was that the batt. is the same as the N95 with the same capacity..i've upgraded from an N73 so i'm pretty impressed... just a few stability issues which i hope would be dealt with the new firmware update.

I won't. I am definitely determined to buy the upcoming N97 which has wmv support (or at least I red somewhere it would support it). But even if it doesn't I will still buy it. (I will not buy it only if it is crippled in some way as the N96 has no VoIP support for example.)
Where did you get it that the n96 has no voip? I own a N95 8gb, and recently my brother purchased the N96. The first thing we installed on the N96 was Fring, and it worked perfectly. The phone also opens and plays WMV files trough the Real Player it has in it.
However, I remember that some time ago Vodafone UK and others used to cripple the voip function on purpose...
