Skype, the best known name in VoIP today has been overlooking the symbian platform for long. Amazed by the market success of our 5800 and the emergence of other offerings from Nokia and other manufacturers, Skype has finally released an official client for symbian fifth edition.

Before you get all excited, we should warn you that Skype have packed in a dampener with their debut client for the symbian platform: the client works only on the networks of 3 in Europe and few other destinations. Hit on the jump button for further details. Read more »

Are you a frequent flyer or interact with overseas contacts on a regular basis? Then a world clock should definitely be on your table and if not, you are fortunate that your 5800 can double up as a world clock, courtesy- World Clock Touch from Offscreen Technologies.

While Time Machine served as an impressive standby clock, Offscr’s World Clock Touch converts our tube 5800 to standalone world clock, which can simultaneously display as many as 3 clocks in the analogue mode on the active screen. Screenshots and details after the break. Read more »

How many clicks does it take to command "Sit."?

Some dogs are trained to follow voice commands from their masters. Sit! Bark! Play dead! Other dogs are given commands via clicking sounds with the use of, what else, a clicker. The Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic phone has an application that work just like a dog clicker aptly known as “The Clicker”.

OffScreen Technologies created this “Clicker” application. The premise is quite simple: to use the 5800 as a clicker for dogs. Just like Morse code, certain commands can be given to dogs through a variation of clicks from the clicker.

The bug that I am discussing in this post is a typical one and quite rare. You would actually encounter this bug if you have a lot of applications installed on your phone taking the count of the icons in your APPLICATIONS menu to about 35-40 which is less probable for a normal user. Since, I keep experimenting with my phone, its overloaded most of the time with a lot of applications. So, I would say I discovered this bug accidently.

Details

As you can see in the screenshot, the last row of icons gets hidden below the OPTIONS/BACK layer. This makes it really difficult to launch any application that is there in the last row. I would generally hold my finger/stylus on any of the visible icons and slide it to the last layer to access the hidden application shortcuts.

Which phones are affected?

This is common to Nokia 5800 phones which are still running the firmware older than the latest one. I guess the Nokia developers discovered this bug and later got it fixed in the latest firmware.
