Nokia 5800 Reaches 20% Market Share
A Finnish publisher has reported that Nokia 5800 XpressMusic owns 20% of worldwide smartphone market. The estimation is like what Nokia chief executive Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo has said. That result is mentioned just for Q1 2009 result. The result will be a good start for S60 5th device.
That good result is better than expected and it may become the Nokia device with best achievement ever.
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic was launched in Q4 last year. In a short time after, a huge number of customers worldwide were continually attracted to the phone. Just only in 1st two months after launching the manufacture claimed that the phone was sold more than a million unit per month.
Released as free widgets for the Nokia 5800 and N97, PixelsBeatPaper has released interactive maps of the titled underground systems. Nothing fancy, just clear scrollable maps. If you dig a bit further into their site, you'll see utilities for bill splitting, body-mass-index calculating and a countdown timer, all again only for S60 5th Edition.
Published by Richard Bloor at 23:43 BST, April 30th 2009
The next version of Nokia’s tool for S60 widget development is currently in beta testing. In ‘A First Look at Nokia WRT Plug-in for Aptana Studio 2.0’ I’ve been given the opportunity to preview the new features and find a considerably richer tool, offering support for all the current and forthcoming S60 widget features.
‘Overall, 2.0 is a good step forward in supporting widget developers with a comprehensive set of tools’, find out why.
One of the biggest developers for UIQ, DreamSpring, has followed up its commitment to porting its software to S60 with the announcement of DreamConnect. Think of this as a contact manager on steroids, with with an 'innovative business card layout', plus 'hierarchical categories that let you organise your contacts to accurately reflect your real life relationships'. Sounds interesting - hopefully, given the UIQ heritage, there's a touch version coming for S60 5th Edition.
The Nokia 5800 already supports multitouch, sort of...
The Nokia 5800 is criticised by some for being a single-touch device that can only register one finger press at a time. But is this actually true? Not quite. With a bit of clever interface design the existing 5800 hardware is already capable of registering two simultaneous screenpresses at once, and you can see how this works in the full story below (you can even try it for yourself, and there's a video of a 5800 game using it). The reason this is worth mentioning is that Nokia is already using a more limited version of this method in their just-released Maemo 5 SDK, which is the latest version of the platform they use on their internet tablets. If Nokia's already using it there, it seems very likely they could use it on their S60 devices too.
How multitouch on the 5800 can work
This example might seem pointless because it doesn't do anything useful, but that's because the QWERTY keyboard hasn't been designed with multitouch in mind. Apps designed for multitouch would use it properly and do stuff that is useful.
The purpose of this example is just to de monstrate how the 5800 detects keypresses, so you can see how multitouch could work.
The beauty of this example is that you can try it out yourself on your own 5800. Just start an application that uses text entry and select the full screen QWERTY keyboard. Now, do the following...
Hold down Q, and the Q button lights up:
Hold down P, and the P button lights up:
Now, hold down P and Q simultaneously, and the button directly between your touches lights up (either R or T, depending on exactly how you're pressing Q and P):
All you need to do to have a simple multitouch interface on existing 5800 hardware is interpret touches exactly between two controls as simultaneous presses of both controls.
You might be thinking that this is silly because people could activate multitouch by accident if they do a single touch between two controls. However, there are ways to avoid this problem.
You could then tell the device to only record multitouch when another button is already active. This means that if someone touches the screen between two controls it won't activate multitouch by accident, because no other button was active at the time the touch happened. In theory this would prevent multitouch working with two truly simultaneous touches, but you would very very rarely put both fingers onto two parts of a screen at exactly the same time, it's far more likely that you would touch one part first and then another part. Also, application interfaces could be designed to discourage truly simultaneous touches.
You could also design apps in such a way that there's no point in touching the area between them, for example a racing game could have all the controls at the sides of the screen with the middle used for displaying the race itself.
The benefit of this technique is that it requires no extra hardware, and it could work with even the cheapest touchscreen devices, though it may require more careful planning of where on-screen controls go. This is old news really, many developers are already using this method, but most people don't seem to realise that this is possible.
This isn't as flexible as "true" multitouch, as it wouldn't be directly recording the true position of the two touches, but that probably doesn't matter much because the user wouldn't have to ever know how it works. Clever and careful design of app interfaces can make this method function in a way that is virtually indistinguishable from traditional multitouch.
The extra care needed for interface design may make life more difficult for app developers, but the much wider range of devices they could reach would provide them with far greater sales potential. Very few devices do support true multitouch, so any technique which allows multitouch on all touchscreen devices is potentially very valuable indeed. It would also make simultaneous development for multiple touch-based platforms much easier.
Nokia are already using this method in the recently-released Maemo 5 SDK using the name "two-touch", where you hold down your finger on one part of the screen while touching elsewhere in order to activate a status menu: the interface would be registering two simultaneous touches, which is multitouch (of a kind, at least). Nokia could just as easily implement this technique on future S60 touch interfaces, and app developers can already use this technique for 5800 games and applications right now if they want to.
UPDATE: AAS reader Micky! has alerted us to a video of a game that uses this technique on the 5800:
Steve's take/thoughts:
There's more though. As I indicated a few months ago, the timing of the keypresses and their 'release' could also be used. Extending the thoughts above, I can see how the user might:
press and hold the screen at 'q'
0.2 secs later, press and hold the screen at 'w'
0.2 secs later again, release the screen at 'q'
finally, release the screen at 'w'
There's more than enough information here for the touchscreen driver to pass on coordinates as appropriate, effectively giving multi-touch (more like 'dual touch', since handling three spots at once might get too hairy!) on a non-multi-touch, resistive virtual keyboard. In this case processing the text input "qw", even though both letters were held down at the same time for a while.
The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is oddly becoming one of my new favorite phones, as it’s becoming more and more fun to use as more applications become available. The phone is $399 if you buy it directly from Nokia, but today, Amazon dropped the price to a rock-bottom $306! That’s nearly $100 less, and I can confirm that it still comes with a $50 gift certificate to Amazon’s Unbox video on demand service!!
You can purchase it straight from Amazon, and right now, there’s free shipping, too! Keep in mind this is the NAM variant, which has 3G support for both AT&T in the U.S. and Rogers in Canada.
PixelsBeatPaper, which we pointed you to previously, is now rocking out with an interactive London Tube map, which is sure to come in handy for our UK readers! The ‘application’ installs as a widget, and gives you a draggable map that you can browse easily on your phone. The best part is that it doesn’t require an internet connection, and it loads up lightning quick - perfect if you need to find your way quickly.
There aren’t any extra features, such as the ability to quickly snap-to a specific stop, but still, it’s nice to have, and much better than hassling about with a PDF or similar. I’m sure there are other Tube maps out there, though. What apps do you use, and do you think they’re better than this?
Update: PixelBeatsPaper have updated their website with a specific Maps section that not only offers the TfL map for London, but also the French Metro (installed and working fine on the 5800XM), as well as the NYC and Tokyo subway maps.
DesignClock from MojosMobile is a great way to have a useful screensaver. It offers 10 setting points and therefore is highly customizable. Read on to see the settings and feature list.
Settings:
Activate: rather obvious, choose wether to activate the screensaver or not
Time to activate: set an amount of seconds until the screensaver becomes active
Show clock for: choose how long the creensaver will be active
Theme: choose either the two default backgrounds (which are really nice) or a custom image from your phone
Color: choose which color the clock and calendar will be displayed (black or white)
Transparency: choose how strong the clock and calendar will be drawn on the background picture
Clock Type: choose wether to have hh:mm, hh:mm:ss, or no clock at all
Calendar Type: choose wether to have the calendar displayed or not, or for landscape devices, use whole screen for clock
Show indicators: choose if you want to see the missed call, message, voicemail indicators
Illumination: choose to have backlight always on, always on when charging, or on on system preferencies
You see, quite a lot of things can be done here and the best thing about it is that it is fully integrated in the system. Forget those rubbish flash screensavers that drain your battery just to look good, and forget the default screensaver. Once you used this one you will definitely like it.
As usual, you can get a free 14 day trial over at MojosMobile, Though the app is very moderate priced at € 4,95. It is available for s60v3 devices aswell as for s60v5.
We also heard rumors that MojosMobile is working on TwitClock, which will be the same thing but with Twitter being integrated. Watch out for more
Twittix 0.93 is on its way to the world of symbian smartphones and i was lucky enough to get my hands on a preview version of the app. I was even luckier by getting 5 licenses from MojosMobileto give away with it.
The main improvements in Version 0.93 are Twitpic support, Tweet/message to sms and the API Counter in my eyes.
Twitpic support: Well, not much to say about that, it gives you the possibility to directly post images to Twitpic from Twittix.
Tweet/message to sms: Very interesting feature. You can “send” the tweets directly to your message editor. So, if you grab something interesting there you want to share with your friends that are not on twitter (uh, is that possible nowadays anyway?), just sms them the tweet.
API Counter: Very nice feature again. You might already know it from tweetdeck. Twitter only allows 100 client API requests per hour, so if you update and check too often from any third party client it just might give you an error. With the API Counter you are able to check how many API requests you have left until the hourly reset.
The other improvements are minor but i still will mention them here.
Receptions in list of DM Tab added Advanced Hotkey Functionality added: 1 = Instant Tweet 2= Account-Swtich * = FullScreen Sound issues on some devices fixed!
So you can see, Twittix is under heavy construction and every release brings some new features requested by many users. I´m totally sure that when it reaches version 1.0, Twittix will be the most feature rich s60 client for Symbian devices. It works on v3 as well as on v5 devices. A 14 day trial is available at MojosMobile.
And here is your chance to win a free license code. Just mention in comments what you like/dislike (if you dislike it, dou you still want a license?) and what needs further improvement. The winner will be picked randomly when version 0.93 is released, which should be in less than 48 hours.
Edit: What i forgot, please leave a valid email address in comments if you want one of the licenses as we need to contact you in case of winning
Soon Nokia Comes With Music will be available in Germany. Nokia Comes With Music (CWM) is a music-flatrate which allows you to download more than 5 million songs for a whole year. You can download as much songs as you want and download the songs either to your PC or straight to your Nokia device. More over you can keep the songs for ever. Currently the 5800 XpressMusic, 5630 XpressMusic, the N95 8GB and the Nokia N79 will be the first devices to come with a CWM subscription. Here a cool video (in German) telling you what Comes With Music is and how it works:
Here some pictures showing a special edition of the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. As you can tell, this version is special as it is black and silver instead of red or blue
The Silver Nokia 5800 changes the colour of the exterior colour band around the circumference of the casing from the red and blue of the previous models to a new silver finish, the overall casing colour stays as black which offsets the new silver banding perfectly.
Aside from this colour change the bones of the Nokia 5800 stay exactly the same offering all of the same great features and technology as the original red and more recent blue editions.
Mojos Studios was founded in 2007 by Boris Raczynski. With its apps for Symbian and other operating systems it is becoming more and more known. So, time for us to see what else is planned, what we can expect in future, andhave a deeper look into a software development studio. Boris was kind enough to answer a few questions that i hope you are interested in. Personally i think that we will see a lot of stuff coming from Mojos Studios, not only for Symbian devices.
Read on after the break for the full interview. And don´t forget to leave your comments.
Would you please give the readers an overview about Mojos Studios, size, programmers etc.?
In brief words, the Studios are my personal passion. Being the development arm of MojosMobile the Studios are our reply to the fast-growing demand of net operators and appstores for high-quality software products. Actually MojosMobile is focussed on games for all platforms. But times are changing! Two years ago game publishers, developers and aggregators of mobile games earned tremendous money. But in fact the developers were the last one in the revenue chain. They did the entire job and the publishers and aggregators were demanding more and more work by them. Not only to develop outstanding games but punishing them with super-sized demands for marketing materials. Developers more and more became downgraded to losers in that business.
Suddenly the market changed! Steve realized his dream and the iPhone hit the shell. What a surprise that all talented game developers jumped like crazy to this possibility! Earn money with your games! Now it became reality.
What this has to do with the Studios? Everything! Due to MojosMobile we have a network of about 450 shops, appstores and sales channels around the globe. We can reach more customers than any other Symbian Publisher. We started to distribute high-quality products of third party companies and then step by step more and more developers joined us. Nowadays we have joint ventures with 10 companies and developers. Still rising! That way even Symbian Developers can earn money finally!
It became obvious that we should start our own development division. So we did - the Studios!
Currently MojosMobile has 14 employees and lots of cool people who are working freelance for us.
What is your intention in developing Symbian apps?
Being the former CEO & Founder of famous Symbianware my intention is quite easy to explain: bring high-quality software products to the people.
What can we expect in the next few weeks from Mojos Studios?
Our famous mobile Twitter client Twittix will be published in version 1.0 very soon. We took care of all suggestions of our users and build in all their desires!
Well, and having Twittix it is obvious that this will not be our last solution concerning social communities and news information systems. Two more are already under development.
Furthermore seven typical end-user products will be published very soon.
We are not only engaged on the so called B2C market but we are working for corporate clients as well. And an outstanding mobile advertising solution is going to be introduced in about two weeks.
More? Sure! There is a lot to tune in S60 UI. We will do that!
You hit the market with quality software at low prices. Does that mean that other developers ripped us off all the years?
I would not say so. By times are changing. And the market as well. Why should users pay EUR 19.95 for a software product for Symbian when the same one is available for iPhone for 2.99?
We will publish high-quality products, well-designed and with eight years of experience in Symbian OS development inside - for reasonable prices!
What was/is your most favourite project at Mojos Studios?
Are you asking for my favourite project at MojosStudios and for the most thrilling one of the last years? Difficult to say. Each product deserves a lot of love, skill and passion.
But yes, we made an outstanding one some years ago. A full-skinner and complete replacement of the UIQ UI. And we have such a product under development at Studios!
With Twittix you released a well demanded software. Do you think it was a fault to release v 0.90 as paid version instead of a public beta? There were many complaints about the software.
I do not believe in public betas. And the sales and feedbacks of the users tell us that we are right with this point of view. Please consider that we are no one-man show but a professional company who is working for the big-players around the world.
Therefore we believe in Symbian Signed as well. Nokia follows this quality and security standard so we do!
Are there any plans on releasing other social networking apps? Social Networking seems to be the big future of the internet.
Oh yes!
Where do you see Symbian in 3 years?
The question is not where I see Symbian. As long as Nokia is using it everything will be fine. Well, they should finally remove all the bugs left from the EPOC past but in fact Symbian is a very powerful and reliable operation system.
Therefore the question should be: how do I see the software market for Symbian? For Nokia S60? Honestly spoken Nokia was not able to make anything well regarding this topic. Since years they are trying and trying and… N-Gage I, N-Gage II, Softwaremarket, Mosh… all these attempts had a questionable success.
I really hope that the friends in Finland will open their eyes and mind one day. And…guys do it fast!
Just check the Apple AppStore! Yes, hard to believe but success can be achieved so easy!
Let us wait for OVI until we will give this question a final answer!
Where do you see Mojos Studios in 3 years?
The worldwide Number 1 software maker for Symbian, what else?
You are not only coding for Symbian. Which OS do you think will be the best/most liked in the future?
Apple, not one single doubt in that. This company is leaded by a creative brain. Nothing can happen to them!
Have your own say to our readers.
Support us with your feedbacks to our products. Only that way we will be able to give you the products you want to have!

Nokia Tube: UK’s Best Selling Portable Music Player
Nokia’s new adverts in UK claims that Nokia 5800 is the new highest selling portable music player. According to GFK Retail and Technology data, the Nokia 5800 was the top device in both volume and value in Q1 of 2009 in the UK. This makes it the best selling portable music player beating even the Apple Ipod.
The touch phone has well placed itself as a phone cum mp3 player in the market. Nokia 5800’s mega success has surprised the competitors, analysts and even the manufacturers. Nokia’s CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo recently said that the sales figures for 5800 are well beyond their expectations and this device has a potential to become the most sold Nokia phone EVER.
The latest adverts in UK says it all-
‘Nokia 5800: UK’s No. 1 Selling Portable Music Player’
Meanwhile, retailers reported stock shortages on the product in UK. The manufacturer has acknowledged the initial ‘capacity’ problems with the product due to unexpected high demands. Nokia says the N5800 phone is now shipping at one million units per month globally and it now accounts for 20% of all touchscreens sold worldwide.
Nokia’s ‘comes with Music‘ service has also gained a decent user base of 23,000 so far in UK which is increasing sharply.
The Nokia 5800 operates on the latest Symbian S60 5th edition OS. The 5th edition does not have many supported applications, games and themes available so far. The previous 3rd edition phones have tons of apps and games to choose from.

CHECK UPDATE BELOW The Nokia 5800 has just received a new firmware version 21.0.025, up from the earlier v20.0.012. This latest firmware update for the Nokia 5800 has started to circulate slowly.
The update is available via NSU for product codes like 0575407, 0575408, 0581337 from some Asian regions only for now. We should hopefully see the firmware being rolled out across the rest of the world soon. Initial reports point towards a better camera and usual “performance improvements”.
Here is a quick changelog the Nokiaaddict guys found in this update-
1. Quicker booting up - It seems to let you ‘take control’ a lot quicker than before.
2. You can now make the menu button ‘breathe’ (slowly light up and fade out) when the phone is in standby. It will flash twice if there is a missed call, message or email.
3. Music Player is showing BIG cover art - something that annoyed me in V20 was the fact the cover art was shrunk.
4. No longer switches predictive text off after you’ve used the Full Screen QWERTY keyboard and gone back to the regular keypad.
5. ‘Applications’ has been renamed ‘Apps’ - ‘Music Player’ is now ‘Music plyr.’ (These could be due to it using HK firmware?!)
6. Still no Widgety goodness on the home screen - it’s as it was in V20.
7. Web Browser isn’t working!!! I will try doing a hard reset I think. Web browser is working fine now and its faster too.
8. Camera wise, there doesn’t seem to be any image improvements IMO - but it seems to work a little bit quicker.
9. Not had chance to test sound through a headset yet - I have personally had issues in V20 with a Stereo Bluetooth Headset so will be interested to check this out.
10. I think the handwriting recognition is improved - I’ve not used this much, but it seems better.

Check the Nokia Software Updater (NSU) and see if anything has popped up for your phone and let us know what the update brings with it. Though the earlier version v20.0.012 is still not available worldwide, we dont know how long this latest udpate will take to reach all the users.
The 5800 features user data preservation so you can update without worrying about your data, however a backup is still recommended.
UPDATE (Apr 28):
The update is available now for many more product codes via Over The Air (OTA) and should be available soon via Nokia Software Updater (NSU) too.
To update via OTA, input code- *#0000#. This will display you your current software version. Now go to “Options- Check for Updates” and follow the process to update your phone. It should take less than 5 minutes to download the firmware update, installing the update and restarting the phone.
Changes noticed:The phone seems to be a bit faster now especially the switching from landscape to portrait mode. All the changelog points we have above seems true except the web browser thing. Web browser is working perfectly fine here and infact its faster than earlier.
So lets hope the latest firmware v21.0.025 is available now for most of you. Report back please your experience with the new update. Cheers!
