Wifi for S60 3rd

I have a 6120 classic.
Is it possible to use Wifi to access internet on it?

I don't think android's answer was really correct in its technical details.
The biggest problem is that the phone works as USB peripheral only. And the USB Wi-Fi adapter is a USB peripheral, too. However, USB peripherals can only be connected to USB hosts.
The solution to this problem is called USB On-The-Go (OTG). http://www.usb.org/about/faq/ans6
I don't think any Nokia phone has USB OTG. Nokia N810 has it, but it's not a phone. http://blogs.forum.nokia.com/blog/kate-alholas-forum-nokia-blog/maemo/2008/01/21/usb-on-the-go
Generally device drivers can be indeed installed to S60 3rd. But they need to be digitally signed by the device vendor. (See http://tools.ext.nokia.com/agents/index.htm for examples containing drivers) Not sure whether Nokia would be interested to support (and sign) complicated 3rd party solutions, if they sell (more expensive) Wi-Fi phones themselves...
Not sure either whether a device driver would be enough in this case, such that S60 and Symbian networking really see the Wi-Fi adapter. There might be some hard-coded places, so that built-in applications (like the browser) just don't find the new device, although it's there. Then only installed applications, which are aware of the new device will be able to use it.
Anyway these are just nice topics for engineers' coffee table discussions. The simple answer is just: it doesn't work and it will not work too soon either. Better buy a phone with Wi-Fi support, if you want it.

    You can do that?!
    I thought iTunes locked everything up so tight that wasn't possible .. It's one of the reasons I've never understood why anyone would want to use iTunes - that and the fact they rip off us poor Europeans: we pay like 50% more per track than they do in the US (99 cents is around 50p at current exchange rates).
    At least the price one still holds ..

  • PT-6 Phone software update for S60 3rd ed

    Hi!
    I have a PT-6 Remote Camera which I controlled used the Remote Camera Manager on my previous Nokia phone.
    Now I have a Nokia E61, which is a S60 3rd ed. phone and the Remote Camera Manager doesn't work.
    Anybody know if there will be a new version of the Remote Camera Manager that supports S60 3rd edition?

    I am the owner of a Nokia Camera with a PT-6 remote control. I am very happy with the product. I have been using this camera with Nokia N-70 telephone. I just bought new telephone model Nokia N-73 which uses a new operating system S60 with the 3rd generation as opposed to N-70.
    The operating program which is installed into my telephone is supported on your site, however, it is only for systems S60 with the 1st and 2nd generation.
    I would like to ask you if it is possible for you to upgrade this application for the S60 3rd generation or advise me what my options are.
    Thank you for your support.

  • Ipod touch 3rd generation will connect to my wifi for a few seconds and then nothing will load. help please?

    I have an ipod touch 3rd generation 64gb and it has iOS 5.1.1 and it will connect to my WiFi for a few seconds and then nothing will load. It says I have full connection bbut nothing works. I have 2nd generation ipod and it connects fine. Along with my laptop and xbox 360. I have tried downgrading it and restoring it from itunes. I also tried forgetting the network and inputting it myself but it sti does the same thing. I even tried resetting my wireless modem but it still didnt make a change. I really could use some help. I can't call apple cause im no longer under warranty.

    Reset the iPod and connect to its syncing computer.  It it shows in iTunes restore the iPod.
    Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mod will allow iTunes t see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • Can't get Opera mini to connect - symbian S60 3rd ...

    I have installed Opera Mini v7.1.32448 on my Nokia 6700 slide which runs symbian S60 3rd edition. I keep getting the error that it can't connect. (The phone does not have WiFi and I connect using Vodafone). The phones built in web browser connects to the internet just fine, but I'd like to use 'opera' instead. On trying 'network test' in the advance Opera settings, it acknowledges that 'I have a working network connection'.  Any suggestions why it won't connect for me?
    Attached, 2 x screen grabs, 1) I have network -2) I can't connect!

    Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately it was of no help at all. Using Nokia Suite, the version of Opera Mini, is the only one available for download to my phone. It's irritating that I can connect using the standard Nokia built in browser, but as I have a very low data contract on my SIM, would love to be able to use Opera Mini to compress web surfing.
    I have tried the different 'connection' options offered by Opear Mini, which are (1) use system default, (2) internet (3) WAP services. None of which connect for me. I'm sure it's a simple 'setting' somewhere, but my limited knowledge is now more than exhausted!
    Just can't understand why the standard browser connects straight away, yet Opera can't make that same leap!

    Dreaming of a 5320XpressMusic - 128MB RAM makes up for the 2MP cam !

    Thanks everyone for the replies and you WERE right almsdriver. I WAS going to buy the 6120c. I read almost every review on it on the net, searched so much on it's bugs and did everything. Sadly, it seems, I'll have to give up the idea of buying the 6120c. I'm not the type of kid (I'm still 17) who always bothers parents to buy things (I don't usually. Not even for food. This is the only thing that I asked from them after a long time). Money problems. Because I won't be able to sell my 6233 for a worthy price. 6120c is around USD290 here. I had asked mom to ask from shop whether they'll buy it, but the answer from shop wasn't good enough. I don't like to bother my parents. I almost cried. I really loved the 6120c. But I have already faced many sad things (you'll know if you've visited my blog, address on my signature), so this is not new. Thanks anyway for your answers.
    P.S: If I bought it, I was thinking of getting a third party headset in exchange to the microSD. As it seemed to be one of the biggest issues for me as I was used to 6233's audio quality. I loved the super light weight Symbian champion, I had long wanted a Symbian upgrade. Unfortunately it was the only smartphone that was at at least a bit affordable price for me.

  • Fscommand2 "shuts down" flash lite player 2.1 in S60 3rd Edition

    Hello.
    I am having the following problem in nokia phones S60 3rd
    edition:
    when I have a j2me midlet running in the background and open
    a swf that executes: fscommand2("GetSignalLevel") it automatically
    closes the flash lite player. This has happened in phones that come
    with the 1.1 player but that I have installed 2.1 and confirmed
    that the swf was running in the 2.1 player. I also tried other
    fscommand2 and they worked well (GetMaxSignalLevel, GetBatteryLevel
    and GetMaxBatteryLevel).
    Is this a known problem? Does it have a solution?
    Thanks in advance

    Ciao Pieter,
    in few days Adobe will release for free the FL 2.1 player to
    developers for several platforms, Brew, Windows Mobile 5 and
    Symbian, which includes 3rd edition. As far as the type of player,
    is probably the standalone.

  • S60 3rd Edition MIDP + Netbeans 5.5 + Mobility CLDC !URGENT!

              Tag:
           Mobility: NetBeans Mobility Pack 5.5.1I am having problems building application with netbeans. The jar file is coming out excessively large and it fails to run on the emu, get -10504 error (already tried to lookup error code at http://newlc.com/Symbian-OS-Error-Codes.html and it is not listed there). I inspected the .jar file and did not see anything there that did not belong; only .class, .png, kxml library and manifest files were present (no Thumbs.db or other clutter).
    When I build the same application with CarbideJ the jar file size is significantly smaller and it executes on the Emulator. Are any of the CarbideJ tasks, namely <ndsj2mejavac> and/or <ndsj2mepackage>, doing something special to source, jar or images that maybe netbeans is skipping; running a different preverifier, different archiver, using it's on version of javac.exe or something?
    When I compile using Carbide.j this is what I get (NO obfuscated/NO debug info);
         AppXXX.jad (400 bytes)
         AppXXX.jar (728,538 bytes)however, when I compile with Netbeans, I get the following(obfuscated set to level 9/NO debug info);
         AppXXX.jad (471 bytes)
         AppXXX.jar (927,530 bytes)The jad files generated were different but only because one had more descriptor tags in it, nothing major about that. The problem is that the jar file generated by netbeans is significantly larger than the one generated by carbide. Also, I compiled the exact same program under the Sun Wireless toolkit v2.5.1 and got the exact same jar file sizes and runtime error on emu that netbeans generated; I installed s60 sdk for wtk and selected it before before creating package for application. Also I state before, the version created with Carbide.j runs in the Emu; however, the NB version does not.
    Already posted to Nokia forum and no help there
    I would be very appreciative if I can quickly get some help!

  • Skyfire Browser for S60 5th

    A short while ago the Skyfire browser for S60 5th edition phones was released in beta.
    I've installed and have been giving it a try and I have to say that it's very good and extremely fast so would definitley reccomend trying this.
    I know it sounds like it but I'm nothing to do with Skyfire nor am I getting commission...... ah wel!!!!
    Oh.... best put a few smileys in having just read earlier posts.... some seem to think they're essential
    www.skyfire.com/product
    Rider5512

    I was a huge fan of this up to a cople of weeks ago, but it seems that the Skyfire servers are now overloaded and data transfer is very slow. Connected through my WiFi I'm getting data transfer rates of less than 1Kb/s when Opera gives me 100s of Kb/s!
    I wonder if Skyfire has become a victim of its own success - the best thing about Skyfire is that you can view streaming videos, but this will mean that Skyfire servers have to handle a much higher amount of data per user. A normal Opera browsing session may use only a few Mb data in an hour, but browsing videos on Skyfire will take 10 times that amount of data. That means Skyfire has to maintain 10 times the server infrastructor of Opera to support the same number of users.

  • SIS Files on S60 3rd edition?

    Hi,
    Has anyone managed to successfully install a Flash Lite
    application via SIS file on a series60 3rd edition device?
    My SIS file works fine on 2nd edition devices, but when i
    change the product UID range to 3rd ed. if just comes up straight
    away with the 'not supported' installation error.
    Is there a new version of makesis that i must use?
    Any ideas?
    Paul

    For anyone having the same problems as me...
    If you are trying to create a sis file for 3rd edition or
    UIQ3
    download the s60 3rd edition CDK from Forum Nokia (this will
    give you the newer version of makesis, and some other stuff i
    havent checked out yet,).
    Download the 'Symbian Developer Certificate Request' app from
    Symbian signed as well as
    some new UID's
    Change your PKG file to have the new OS UID's eg.
    s60 1st Edition (0x101F6F88), 0, 0, 0, {"Series60ProductID"}
    s60 1st Edition, FP1 (0x101F8202), 0, 0, 0,
    {"Series60ProductID"}
    s60 2nd Edition (0x101F7960), 0, 0, 0, {"Series60ProductID"}
    s60 2nd Edition, FP1 (0x101F9115), 0, 0, 0,
    {"Series60ProductID"}
    s60 2nd Edition, FP2 (0x10200BAB), 0, 0, 0,
    {"Series60ProductID"}
    s60 2nd Edition, FP3 (0x102032BD), 0, 0, 0,
    {"Series60ProductID"}
    The new ones:
    S60 3rd Edition [0x101F7961], 0, 0, 0, {"S60ProductID"}
    S60 3rd Edition, FP1 [0x102032BE], 0, 0, 0, {"S60ProductID"}
    UIQ v2.0 ( 0x101F617B ),2,0,0,{ " UIQ20ProductID " }
    UIQ v2.1 (0x101F61CE), 2, 1, 0, {"UIQ21ProductID"}
    UIQ v3 (0x101F6300),3,0,0,{"UIQ30ProductID"}
    Note: you cant mix the old and the new product id's in one
    pkg file as the sis files are created differently and are not
    compatable, you will need one for the older nokia devices, one for
    the new 3rd edition, and another if you develop UIQ (although there
    are none available with UIQ3 and Flash lite yet...it might be
    possible you'd have to have a separate one for that as well!).
    If only Symbian could have written a simple document with all
    that in it, it would have saved me and my collegue hours of trying
    to get past error messages!

  • S60 3rd edition apps

    Hi anyone knows if there is an available application where you can lock text messages so they cannot be viewed by others? Previous s60 had an app called sms guard is this available for the 3rd edition? Also what about a photo lock like handy photosafe?
