Top 25 Freeware for S60 5th Edition

1. Google Maps

The first really huge third party S60 application to get a full touch makeover, this works superbly on S60 5th Edition, on all phones, in both landscape and portrait modes, and with touch-panning of maps and of the StreetView displays (in countries where this is supported). Version 3.2.1 is the latest and has built-in Latitude (friend-finding), Traffic and Wikipedia (layers) support. It's also terrific as a general purpose location-centric search tool (e.g. find the nearest plumber or pizza or hairdresser).

2. YouTube

Yes, there's now a mobile version of the YouTube main web site, but exactly what it serves up is dependent on the device you use to browse it - and there are the delays caused by having to bring up different pages and by waiting for RealPlayer or Flash Lite to do its thing. Better is to use the dedicated YouTube client for S60 5th Edition. It's fast to search and browse from clip to clip, works over Wi-Fi or 3G and the only trick is in getting hold of it in the first place.
Picture quality is QVGA, scaled up, but it's quite good enough for casual viewing.

3. GMail

The third big Google application, GMail is Java-based, which means that you need to take a trip into Settings> App Mgr >Installed apps and turn off the S60-supplied navigation and function 'keys'. That done though, you've got a fully touch-enabled, full-screen view into your GMail, complete with all features, such as 'Stars', 'Drafts' and your full list of emailed contacts. Try it - it'll work better than you expect.

4. BBC iPlayer

For UK residents only, of course, and almost certainly only really practical while in Wi-Fi range, this presents the best of the BBC's TV output in very high quality, in streaming or DRM-protected download form. There are hundreds of programmes on offer, mostly from the last few weeks, plus a number of radio programmes as well, better for listening on the move since the bandwidth requirements are somewhat lower.
It's the download option, available for many programmes, which really impresses, since you can grab things for watching later while travelling, with no worries over needing expensive connectivity. The DRM isn't a problem as long as you watch your downloads fairly promptly (within a week, usually).

Updating your Nokia's firmware at home.

What is firmware and why should I update it?


Firmware is the software that controls and powers your phone. This includes all the standard applications, the telephony functions, the S60 interface and the underlying Symbian OS. In most firmware updates it is the upper level applications and hardware integration that is updated.
Firmware updates are primarily used in order to fix bugs in the software. This is the reason that you may want to update your firmware. If you find you are having a particular problem with your phone (e.g. getting out of memory error messages, or a function not working correctly) then a firmware update may fix the problem. Firmware updates may also, in some instances include new functionality (e.g. the latest N80 update added the ability to upgrade the firmware over the air).
Generally models purchased early in a device's life cycle have more bugs and problems and there can be considerable benefits from updating these devices. However if you have a device purchased later on in the life cycle (6 months after it becomes available) then you are less likely to need to update the firmware, although you may still wish to do so if you are having problems with the device.
You can find out what firmware version you have by entering *#0000# at the standby (idle) screen. This will show a dialog that lists your phone's firmware version, the date of the firmware and the model of the phone.

How can I update my phone's firmware?


1. Go to the Nokia website and download the Phone Software Update utility. You should also consider reading the FAQ which will help you if you run into problems.
2. Install the software.
3. Optionally, follow the phone backup procedure below.
4. Start the software. The initialisation can take a few moments. Once the software has been initialised you should see this screen:
5.Click Start. Plug in the USB cable to connect the phone to the PC (and choose 'PC Suite', if there's a choice of modes, as will be the case if you're using a S60 3rd Edition device). You should also plug in the power cable to the phone. Updating the firmware can use a lot of power and by plugging in the power cable you ensure that the power does not fail during the update process. If it does your phone may become unusable.

6.Click Next. The software will try and connect to your phone and identify it. Once it has done this it will search for updates through your PC's Internet connection.
7. If no updates are available then the program will inform you. If updates are available then you will see this screen. Tick the acknowledge box and then click Update to start the update process.
8. The software will then download the update from Nokia's servers, before writing the update to the phone. You will see this happen in two stages. The most important stage at which the update should not be interrupted is when writing the update to the phone.
9. Once this stage has been sucessfully completed you will be informed that you have sucessfully updated your phone.
10. Optionally, restore your backup as discussed in the Phone Backup Procedure below.

Notes:
* In some cases (including one of our trials) the software may report it has failed to update the software. If this occurs at the end of the process then this may not actually be the case. Reboot the phone (you may need to take the battery out) and check the firmware version. Hopefully all will be well.
* An Internet connection is required to download the firmware update. These firmware updates can be up to 40MB in size (but are usually around half this), which is why broadband is recommended.
* The Phone Software Update is still being tested. If it does not work first time - try again.
* If you receive messages about being unable to recognise the phone, being unable to connect the phone, or that the connection is already in use then you should restart your computer and your phone and try again.
Phone Backup Procedure

Updating the firmware will overwrite any information stored on the internal flash disk (C:). If you wish to preserve this information then you should back it up before updating the firmware. Information stored on the internal disk typically includes data files such as your Contact and Calendar databases, plus application configuration files (including registration codes).

You can use PC Suite to do a full backup or you can use the backup to memory card functionality included on the phone.

Using the phone:
1. Open the Memory application (usually found in the Tools folder).
2. Choose Backup phone memory. This will backup the contents of the internal memory to the memory card. This process can take several minutes.

To restore your backup:
1. Open the Memory application.
2. Choose Options -> Restore from card. Your backup will be restored. This process can take several minutes. At the end of the procedure the phone will restart.

Hack your Nokia: Change '0' shortcut to Bluetooth on/off on Nseries.

Bluetooth can be turned on/off by pressing the * key on some Eseries devices like the Nokia E66 and Nokia E71. This shortcut is not available on the Nseries phones. By hacking your Nseries S60 phone, there’s a patch that lets you change the ‘0′ shortcut that usually opens the web browser. By turning on bluetooth only when you need it, you can save battery life and prevent unwanted file transfers.
Prerequsites:
The first thing you need is a hacked Nokia S60 phone. You can find out how to do this by reading How To Hack your S60 Phone guide.


The instructions below include editing the original ChangeBrowserOnKey.rmp patch by FCA00000 and uploading it to your phone. The modified code is then shown afterwards for the bluetooth shortcut. If you don’t want to read about the modification, just scroll all the way down for the end result. Note: The code’s formatting might not appear properly on RSS readers.


All I did was change the code so that the bluetooth menu opens. You can change it to anything you want as long as you know the application’s UID code.


Original Code by FCA0000
Below is the original code from FCA00000. Unmodified, pressing 0 will open Opera Mini if you have that installed. Continue reading below to change it to bluetooth instead. Notice that lines starting with ‘;’ are comments


01.; *** ChangeBrowserOnKey0 1.0 ***
02.; *** Change Browser On Key '0' ***
03.; Author: fca00000 , fca00000-at-yahoo-dot-es
04.; Date: 2008.06.01
05.; Firmware: tested on N80 v 5.0719.02 . Might work on preFP1+FP1
06.;
07.; When phone is in the StandBy screen, pressing key '0' opens the default browser.
08.; With this patch, you can open any other application.
09.; You need to know its UID. Then, swap bytes to little-indian to get xxDIUxxx. In other words: 0x12345678 becomes 78563412
10.; For example:
11.; FExplorer UID = 0xE00012DF therefore xxDIUxxx=DF1200E0
12.; Calculator UID = 0x10005902 therefore xxDIUxxx=02590010
13.; OperaMini UID = 0x101D3166 therefore xxDIUxxx=66311D10 In this case, be aware that it takes some time (5 seconds) to open.
14.;
15.; then, the patch becomes:
16.; SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100000000000000000:xxDIUxxx0000000000000000
17.; SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100100000035000000:xxDIUxxx0100000035000000
18.; As far as I know, nothing is broken. But I decline all responsability, of course.
19.; Anyway, here it is. Enjoy
20.; end of ChangeBrowserOnKey0
21.SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100000000000000000:66311D100000000000000000
22.SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100100000035000000:66311D100100000035000000


Modified Code For Bluetooth:
Below is the code for bluetooth shortcut. Since the The UID for bluetooth menu is 10005951, convert it to little-endian which results in 51590010. See how the conversion is done? You convert ABCDEFGH to GHEFCDAB. The only modifications done are in the last two lines of the original code.




1.; *** Change Browser On Key '0' to Bluetooth ***
2.SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100000000000000000:515900100000000000000000
3.SnR:sys\bin\phone.exe:398D00100100000035000000:515900100100000035000000

• Copy and paste this code to a new text file and make sure to save it with a .rmp extension.
• Transfer it over to the E:/patches folder. Create it if it is not already there.
• Enable it on ROMPatcher (see: How to Hack S60 phones) and set it to autorun so you won’t need to reactivate it after reboot.

Hack Nokia S60 Phones

Here i am posting the instructions to hacking your S60 Nokia phones. Hacking your S60 phone will let you install unsigned applications without a hassle and even apply some patches if you like. It’s much easier uing these steps...
Steps To Hack Nokia S60 Phone:

• Install freeware X-plore, a file manager from Lonely Cat Games. Run X-Plore, press 0 and check first 4 boxes. Don’t exit.
• Install and run HelloCarbide by FCA00000.
• Switch to X-plore and check if you can see the contents of C:/sys/. If you can, then you are halfway done. If not, try step 2 again.
• Download CapsOnOff.rar by FCA00000.
• Copy CProfDriver_SISX.ldd from RAR downloaded above into C:\sys\bin of your phone. You can do this with X-Plore.
• Install CapsOn.sisx and CapsOff.sisx. Run CapsOff application to turn on the hack.
• Download SIS installer mod for Symbian 9.2 and copy installserver.exe file to c:\sys\bin\ so you can install unsigned applications
• Install ROMPatcher by Zorn.
• Whenever you need to install an unsigned application or patch your phone, just run the CapsOff application first. CapsOn brings it back to normal state.

Now that you have a hacked Nokia S60 phone, try installing some unsigned applications! I recommend MagicKey for remapping buttons or the latest version of S60 Screenshot v3.03 to take screenshots from your phone.
This method is pretty much easy like Helloox hacking method..

S60-Software Platform...Review

The S60 Platform (formerly Series 60 User Interface) is a software platform for mobile phones that runs on Symbian OS. S60 is currently amongst the most-used smartphone platforms in the world. It was created by Nokia, who made the platform open source and contributed it to the Symbian Foundation. S60 has been used by mobile device manufacturers including Lenovo, LG Electronics, Panasonic and Samsung.[1] Sony co-created the software with Nokia. Symbian is the most popular smartphone OS on the market by 47% of the sector’s total sales, with 17.9m handsets sold in Q4 2008.

In addition to the manufacturers the community includes:

• 
  
  Software integration companies such as Sasken, Elektrobit, Teleca, Digia and Mobica


• 
  
  Semiconductor companies Texas Instruments, ST Microelectronics, Broadcom, SONY , Freescale, Samsung Electronics


• 
  
  Operators such as Vodafone and Orange who develop and provide S60-based mobile applications and services


• 
  
  Software developers and independent software vendors (ISVs).

S60 consists of a suite of libraries and standard applications, such as telephony, PIM tools, and Helix-based multimedia players. It is intended to power fully-featured modern phones with large colour screens, which are commonly known as smartphones.
The S60 software is a multivendor standard for smartphones that supports application development in Java MIDP, C++, Python[1] and Adobe Flash. An important feature of S60 phones is that they allow new applications to be installed after purchase.[clarification needed] Unlike a standard desktop platform, however, the built-in apps are rarely upgraded by the vendor beyond bug fixes. New features are only added to phones while they are being developed rather than after public release.

These are a few common features in S60:

• 
  
  It supports Java ME (MIDP 2.0 commonly, but varies from phone to phone) applications and Symbian C++ applications.


• 
  
  Certain buttons are standardized, such as a menu key, a four way joystick or d-pad, left and right soft keys and a clear key.
  

S60 editions :
S60 5th edition idle screen. Bottom left "button" brings up a virtual number pad, to compensate for removal of actual numerical keys.There have been four major releases of S60: "Series 60" (2001), "Series 60 Second Edition" (2003), "Series 60 3rd Edition" (2005) and "S60 5th Edition" (2008).

In S60 1st Edition, the devices' display resolution was fixed to 176x208. Since 2nd Edition Feature Pack 3, S60 supports multiple resolutions, i.e. Basic (176x208), and Double (352x416). Nokia N90 was the first S60 device to support a higher resolution (352x416). Some devices, however, have non-standard resolutions, like the Siemens SX1, with 176x220. Nokia 5500 Sport has a 208x208 screen resolution, and the Nokia E90 with its wide 800x352 inner display.

S60 3rd Edition
(S60v3) uses a hardened version of Symbian OS (v9.1), which has mandatory code signing. In S60v3, a user may install only programs that have a certificate from a registered developer, unless the user disables that feature or modify the phone's firmware through third-party hacks that circumvent the mandatory signing restrictions. This makes software written for S60 1st Edition or 2nd Edition not binary-compatible with S60v3.
In 2006, a "Designed for S60 Devices" logo program for developers was launched. The logotype can be used with conforming programs (Symbian or Java).
S60 5th Edition
In October 2008, S60 5th Edition was launched. (Nokia decided to move from 3rd Edition directly to 5th Edition "as a polite gesture to Asian customers"[3], because the number four means bad luck in some Asian cultures). S60 5th Edition runs on Symbian OS version 9.4[4]. The major feature of 5th Edition is support for high-resolution 640x360 touchscreens; before 5th Edition, all S60 devices had a button-based user interface. S60 5th Edition also integrates standard C/C++ APIs and includes Adobe Flash Lite 3.0 with S60-specific ActionScript extensions that give Flash Lite developers access to phone features like contacts, text messaging, sensors and device location information (GPS).
The S60 5th Edition is the last edition of S60. Its assets along with Symbian OS, UIQ and MOAP(S) have been used as a base for Symbian, an open source operating system being developed by the Symbian Foundation. The first edition of Symbian, Symbian^1, uses S60 5th Edition on top of Symbian OS 9.4 as its base.

S60 versions and supported devices:

Phones are listed in this link: http://mobsolu.blogspot.com/2010/04/nokia-software-platformss40s60.html

Symbian is now progressing through a period of organisational change to metamorph into an open source software platform project. As an OS, Symbian OS originally does not provide a user interface (UI), the visual layer that sits on top of the operating system. This was implemented separately. Examples of Symbian UIs are MOAP; Series 60; Series 80; Series 90 and UIQ. This separation of UI from underlying OS has created both flexibility and some confusion in the market place. The Nokia purchase of Symbian was brokered with the involvement of the other UI developers and all major user interface layers have been (or have been pledged to be) donated to the open source foundation who will independently own the Symbian operating system. The new Symbian Foundation has announced its intention to unify different Symbian UIs into a single UI based on the S60 platform. (Announcements made in March 2009 indicated this would be the S60 5th edition with feature pack 1).

Nokia N97:Full phone specifications..

Nokia N97 is a touch screen "mobile computer" in the Nseries of smartphones by Nokia, with a fold-out QWERTY keyboard.

Announced on 2 December 2008,[2][3][4] the N97 is Nokia's second touchscreen phone (after the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic) based on the Symbian OS S60 5th edition platform.

The Nokia N97 was released in US flagship stores on 9 June 2009[5] and on 26th June 2009 was released worldwide. In September 2009 it was reported that two million N97 handsets had been sold in three months following its release.[6]

The N97 ships with trial versions of Quick Office, Adobe reader, Boingo and JoikuSpot Premium as well as Nokia's own Ovi Maps and Ovi store. The initial software had mixed reception, prompting the release of new firmware in October 2009. Nokia released the new firmware with kinetic scrolling for the N97 to address the major issues present in the firmware the device launched with. However, the new firmware still causes problems with some functions of the device.

Operating times :
Informal tests have shown that the battery can last nearly two days with regular use of the phone's various features.[7] Nokia quote the following claimed operating times

■Talk time: Up to 6.0 hours (3G), 9.5 hours (GSM)
■Standby time: Up to 17 days (3G), 18 days (GSM)
■Video playback: Up to 4.5 hours (offline mode)
■Video recording: Up to 3.6 hours (offline mode)
■Music playback: Up to 40 hours (offline mode)

Digital TV :
With the optional DVB-H Nokia Mobile TV Receiver, SU-33W it is possible to watch television on the phone


Criticism :
On occasion, the camera lens cover of the N97 can cause scratches on the lens. Nokia has acknowledged that on many devices the cover is mounted too closely to the lens so that dust and debris can cause scratches.[8] On later models however, this issue seems to have been resolved.

Other common criticisms are the relative lack of RAM and free disk space on the C drive. With only around 50MB of free RAM available after boot, the phone can become sluggish and close programs in order to conserve memory. Many first part applications also will only install on C: and with around 50MB of free space, this is used quickly as it is also where temporary OS files are placed. This issue was resolved in the N97 mini as the user often has over 250MB of free space on C drive. A memory mapping alteration from firmware version 20 allowed applications to use less RAM and free it up better, helping to ease the strain of a lower amount of free RAM to the end-user.

Anssi Vanjoki, EVP of Markets at Nokia, admitted that quality control in software and hardware has been an issue for this device, saying "it has been a tremendous disappointment in terms of the experience quality for the consumers"[9].

Marketing :
The phone can be seen in the beginning of the music video for I Gotta Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas when two of the members: Taboo and apl.de.ap are checking their DipDive and text messages.

Unlocking Guide..

Why unlock a phone?
Unlocking is the opening of a phone to allow it to use any network, and removing the restriction that the original network placed on there. Several reasons for doing this are: Cheaper on another network, the phone is cheaper on a network but you don't want to use that network, the phone is moving country (be aware, some countries including Spain outlaw the unlocking of phones) or a person just want different networks open on their phone.

There are a lot of phones on the market today that cannot be unlocked yet, and there are a lot of people scamming and making money from this. I hope to mainly cover the basics in this thread, if you have any questions that aren't covered, please PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Also, please remember most phones cannot be unlocked for free. A lot of time, dedication and work go into the development of software to give you the freedom to escape your current network, so don't be surprised if the only answer you get is, "See a professional to get this model unlocked".

~~~~~~~~~~~~NOKIA~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are three major groups for Nokia's as far as unlocking is concerned.
DCT3
All DCT3 phones can be unlocked remotely provided that the codes haven't previously attempted. If they have, you'll need professional tools to get them unlocked, I recommend paying a specialist to do it (much cheaper then buying the kit) if this is the case.

DCT-3 Phones -
2100, 3110, 3210, 3310, 3315, 3330, 3350, 3390, 3410, 3610, 5110(i), 5130, 5190, 5210, 5510, 6080, 6110, 6130, 6138, 6150, 6190, 6210, 6250, 7110, 8210, 8250, 8290, 8850, 8855, 8890, 9110(i), 9210(i), 9290. etc.



DCT4
All DCT4 phones can be unlocked remotely provided that the codes haven't been previously attempted. If they have, you'll need professional tools to get them unlocked, I recommend paying a specialist to do it (much cheaper then buying the kit) if this is the case.

DCT-4 Phones -
3100(b), 3108, 3120, 3200(b), 3220, 3230, 3300, 3360, 3510(i), 3530, 3590, 3595, 3600, 3650, 3660, 5100, 5140(i), 6020, 6021, 6100, 6101, 6108, 6200, 6220, 6230(i), 6260, 6310(i), 6500, 6510, 6590, 6600, 6610(i), 6620, 6650, 6800, 6810, 6820, 6822, 7200, 7210, 7250(i), 7260, 7270, 7280, 7600, 7610, 7650, 7700, 7710, 8310, 8390, 8800, 8910(i), 9300(i), 9500, N-Gage (QD). etc.


BB5
Most BB5 phones have been cracked or are close to being cracked. There are no BB5 phones that can be done by code. BB5 phones include:

BB5 phones..
3250,5200,5300,5500,5700,6125,6126,6131,6136,6233,6234,6270,6280,6288,6500 Classi,6500 Slide,6630,6680,6681,6682, 7370,7373,7390,E50,E60,E61,E62,E65,E70,N70,N71,N72
N73,N80,N90,N91,N92,N93N95..etc..

List gathered from various sources, if your model isn't listed here and is fairly new,
If you are still unsure, please post and ask, but make it clear you have looked at this list and I'll update it!
The current process is risky, involved, usually expensive and very difficult for these models, still best to try through your operator.
Please note well that the unlock not only depend on the model number, but the version number too.
To get these phones unlocked, visit a local unlocking centre or contact the guys at nokiafix.com for more details.

Sony Ericsson
Most SE phones can be unlocked, however I don't know of any code generators, so they must be done via cable/software. I highly recommend taking these to professionals that insure against damage, as even I get these wrong sometimes.
Major groups in Sony Ericsson are:
DB2010 - CID16
DB2010 - CID29
DB2010 - CID36
DB2010 - CID49

DB2020
CID49 can be done without issues
CID51 may need to be re-flashed, hence data loss
CID52 can be problematic, but usually fine
CID53 same as CID52

Motorola
All motorola's that I know of can be done, however some are more complex then others. Motorola codes are not generated using the IMEI, but they can be obtained using it. I personally have access to a code record system for 2G handsets, however I cannot generate them, and this is a paid service. Otherwise, feel free to post for more information on unlocking yours. As a general rule though, codes are not free but depending on your model there may be unlocking software available (again, not necessily free).

Samsung
Some Samsung's can be unlocked using generic codes, there is a thread in this forum with all the codes found up to date. However, these only seem to work on older models, and can kill phones if not used properly. Otherwise, all other models can only be done by professionals.

Any questions or comment, please feel free to start a thread (make sure to abide by the rules).
