Will WP7 able to Overcome Nokia's Symbian Lackings...

I m rili interrested to buy one wp7 of nokia...coz i have seen symbians r going down and down...dey have superfasts like belle...anna...^3...bt dis arent able 2 fight agaist android on iphones os...its really wierd dat how Easily Android got the number 1 mobile platform...frm nokia...i want something from nokia Dat will Heal us like samsung galaxy S II...iphone 4...i am dreaming like such fone of nokia 4 dat i will be in a long line....of buyers...so im just excited and savinG my Money for WP7 or a Heal!

I have looked into this and the answer is NO.
Present high end devices have hardware specifically designed for Symbian^1. Some of the latest devices, such as the N97mini and new X series, have the hardware capacity to run a basic Symbian^3 but again they are designed for Symbian^1 with upgradability to a basic Symbian^2 and they would not work well with Symbian^3.
The first Symbian^3 specific hardware devices will be available later this year, and the transition by Nokia to the iPhone and Android, (and now Win mobile 7 series) user experience will not be completed until 2011 and the Symbian^4 capable devices.
Its interesting to note that from the youtube Nokia conversations video, the clarity for long term development of high end devices is not clear. Others are now taking the lead in innovation. Nokia seem to be hedging their bets as to which OS will become prominent in 2012 -  it may be Symbian  or it may be MeeGo. As to usage, obviously there is a device development route that leads to a focus on new high end devices rather than lower end handsets, but again what these will be (as well as phones) is unclear.

  • Nokia 500 symbian belle w/ NFC support?

    i wonder if i upgrade to symbian belle on my nokia 500, will it able to add NFC support? TY
    Nokia user since 2004.
    Owned 3310, 1100, 3300, 6600, 6300, 5310, 5130, N79, 5800.
    Owns: 6230 (still alive) and 500....
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well the Nokia "Store" seems to think that the Nokia 500 has "NFC SUPPORT"... Please take a look at this link:
     - http://store.ovi.com/content/209048?clickSource=search&pos=8
    It clearly states there the folllowing:
     - "Simply perform the NFC handshake with another Nokia 500, 600 or 700 to unlock content."
    So I don't know if whoever posted it up was trying to mislead people who own the Nokia 500 into buying their application and make them think that the software will "enable" NFC on the device.... Or just a "typo"? 
    It probably was a marketing strategy..... "me thinks"...

  • System error on nokia c7 symbian belle

    Hi, I'm having problem on my nokia c7, sometimes it hangs and when i restart it shows a message ''system error'', i don't knows why is this happening i restored my phone but still its showing error report although in phone message it shows the number instead of person name which is already saved in contacts. Please help.........

    Hi tarbiya,
    Please perform a hard reset by entering *#7370# and default security code 12345.
    Don't forget to make a back up first with Nokia Suite. Go to Tools > Back up, but don't make a back up of your settings. 
    You can restore the back up onto your phone after the reset by going to Tools > Restore. 
    Also update the phone's software to make sure it works to it's full potential, you can do this by clicking on the green arrow in Nokia Suite. 
    Let me know if you manage to resolve the issue, otherwise I can provide further support.

    Greeting,
    I want to reformat my external hard drive using Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted ) but before formatting it, I want to make sure that if I loose the hard drive or the hard drive get stolen, no one will be able to retrieve or recover the information on it so could you tell me what kind of encryption will be used or is there any way to recover the information?
    Thanks!

    I think FileVault is used to encryp internal hard drive but I wanna encrypt an external hard drive with Mac OS Extended Journaled Encrypted which is completely different!

  • I am moving to Alice Springs, Australia, this summer from the U.S. I would like to get the new iPad. How can I found out if I will be able to access all the functionality in Alice? Will I need to purchase a local plan of some sort?

    I am moving to Alice Springs, Australia, this summer from the U.S. I would like to get the new iPad to use while traveling back and forth from the U.S. to Australia, and within Australia. How can I found out if I will be able to access all the functionality of the iPad in Alice? Will I need to purchase a local plan of some sort? I have never owned an Apple product before -- I'm a newby!

    Aside form the limitation of LTE to the 700MHz and 2.1GHz bands (which rules out LTE in Europe I gather, at least as it stands now) the new iPad should let you use a GSM 3g/2g/edge network anywhere.  The CDMA Verizon model will only be able to use it's native CDMA radio band in the USA (that radio will be locked to Verizon), but it's international GSM radio is the same as the AT&T model.
    Keep in mind though that by far the cheapest option when abroad is to take advantage of free wifi as much as possible (well, that is always the cheapest option, since it is free).  I know several people who have taken their wifi-only iPads and iPad2s to Europe and said they did not find the lack of 3G really inconvenient at all as most towns had plenty of free or cheap wifi access all over the place.
    And in 3 years, your iPad will be at least 2-3 generations behind, LTE will have already been replaced by 5G or whatever the next new generation of cellular ends up being named (and the "young" kids will be wondering what the heck 3G even means or meant - dang that stuff was from the olden days!), and you can pitch that ancient piece of technology and start things all over again 

  • I have bought an airport express after being assured that I will be able to print from my IPad. I have installed airport utility on my Hp laptop and it is configured correctly but the printer I have is showing neither on laptop nor on IPad. Can u tell how

    I bought an airport express after being assured that I will be able to AirPrint from my IPad. I have set up airport utility on my Hp laptop and configured it properly with the express. But still I'm not able to detect the printer attached to the USB port of airport express, neither on my laptop nor on my IPad. Can someone tell me if and how it can be done?

    Who assured you that an AirPort Express would allow you to use AirPrint from an iPad. They were incorrect.
    AirPrint from iPads and other iOS devices is only supported on a select few wireless network printers that expressly advertise that feature. An AirPort Express will not add that feature to a printer that does not support AirPrint. Also, for printers that do support AirPrint a wireless access point is not required since the printer needs to support wireless networks connections internally.
    The HP laptop should however be able to print to the printer connected to the AirPort Express. Try also installing the Bonjour Print Services for Windows. It will make printer discovery a lot easier when using Bonjour enable devices like an AirPort Express.

  • How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now

    How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now and I only purchased my new iMac in December 2012
    Thanks....

    Launch Keychain Access and click on Login in the left hand pane and then on Passwords.  Next do search for Apple in the search field at the top and click on Apple ID Authenicication in the list that comes up.  That will give you the ID no. and password.

  • My daughter and I listen to the same music with few exceptions. We currently are under my apple id if she gets her own apple id she no longer will be able to hook up to mine?

    I am trying to figure out if I give her her own apple id does that mean we have to purchase the same songs in itunes so that she can have access to them? I mean, it seems silly since if I buy the songs, I should be able to share with my family. It is for everyones use but if I give her her own apple ID so she can buy her own music with her own password then that whole sharing thing is off? I don't want to give her full access to my account password... She is only 11. I don't want her to go on a shopping spree LOL! So how can I give her the freedom to download free apps etc but yet share the purchased items I have already? Will this icloud help with that. Can I share my music with someone else with a different apple ID? Help. Extremely confused. Thanks.

    You can create a new account without giving credit card details by following the instructions on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    And she can then use that account for free items. If she redownloads an item on her iPad (and similarly on your Mac) from an account (either your existing account or a new one) then she may tie the iPad to that account for 90 days (so she won't be able to redownload items from the other account until those 90 days have completed) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
    Also all content is tied to the account that downloaded it, so only your account will be able to download updates to the apps that were bought/downloaded by your account.
    The apps will only automatically download on your phone if you have automatic downloads turned on in Settings > iTunes & App Store on it.

  • I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

    I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
    Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
    The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
                "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
    Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
    - I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
    - in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.      
    If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
    Cheers

  • TS2446 My iphone 5 was stolen, i have refused to disconnect my service with sprint from the phone because i still have the hope that once the thieves turn on the phone or try to use it, I will be able to track them and find my phone. do you think is a goo

    My iPhone 5 was stolen from me in a train station, the phones battery was dead, the iphone hasnt bee turned on yet, everytime I call it it rings once and goes to voicemail which tells me that it is still dead, nobody has charged it nor turned it on yet, the find my iphone app says its offline, and the sprint service representatives have told me that the phone has not been used yet. I dont want to disconnect my phones service just yet, becasue even if the thief restores my phone, and wipes out all of my information they cannot and will not be able to use it as if its theres because my carrier would still be connected on it. My hopes is that the thief will attempt to use the phone to make a call or to receive a call from my phone and then I will be able to find them tracing their calls. I did this once from my a blackberry that was taken from me and I found it... My question is can they erase all the information from my phone to the point of using it although i have not disconnected it from sprint????

    Yes.
    Unless you are certain that it was stolen, don't overlook the fact it may have been turned in to a lost and found.

    Hi I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5 in the Middle East. I want to know if I will be able to use my iPhone and all its applications when we go back to live in the US for long term.
    Thank you

    Apple Online Store sells unlocked iPhone in the following countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium (French, Dutch), Brazil, Canada (English, French), China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong (English, Chinese), Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (French, German), Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and United States.
    You can probably be absolutely sure any other source will be carrier locked
    It also appears that only Zain offer unlocking (of all the ME carriers )  in Jordan and Bahrain
    A ME iPhone 5  ( A1429 GSM )will not  work on US LTE when you return

    1. Because if you could, someone who breaks into your account could do it as well.
    2. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • I need to know if free account holders will be able to collaborate on forms that have been shared

    I need to know if free account holders will be able to collaborate on forms that have been shared with them and if there will be an Enterprise version available for Adobe Formcentral.

    Hi;
    This FAQ goes over Sharing - yes, a Free user added as a "Co-author" can collaborate, the permissions in the form itself are tied to the author, so if a paid author shares a form the form has paid level features for everyone shared with.  In addition the forms shared with Free users do not count against their form quota (of 1 form), they can have unlimited shared forms in their account.
    Thanks,
    Josh
