There have been many reports that Skype is providing the Nokia N8 users with issues since the beginning of the arrival of the Nokia N8, either a feature is missing or the video function is giving problems or complaints of the quality. The good advantage of apps is that there is always an alternative to what you want to do that can’t do with the other.
Usually I use Skype to talk to friends and colleagues but when Symbian Belle came for the Nokia N8, Skype mentioned that there is no compatible version for the Nokia N8. This raised many questions amongst the Nokia N8 Belle users, usually one would go to the Nokia Store to retrieve the application that the user wants but since Anna came, it has been more accustomed but for Skype : the providers website is normally the source. When the Nokia N8 still had the software before Anna, many users would complain that there Skype would provide many issues or some couldn’t download it – that was due Symbian^3 and Anna being new.
Now that Belle has been here for a while, and Skype here for a while for Nokia – the features are improved, with better connectivity and user interface. The same basic features that are always available such as calls and and chatting – the updated prices are always available on the Skype website.
The Nokia N8 has the capability of being modified according to user preferences, of course all of the modifications to the software or hardware, the full responsibility of it remains of the user. Please note that this guide is done upon your own risk and can void guarantee.

At the time of the Nokia N8 launch, this device had the best camera technology in mobile phones. With 12 megapixel and HD quality videos, one could record videos with better quality than some actual cameras. A user that won a competition that Nokia Connects held, was to win a trail with the Nokia N8.
After receiving the Nokia N8 and with his own device, he decided to create 3D images at first; after getting bored of the images, he moved on to 3D videos which is hard if you are not able to keep the cameras steady.

Sometimes you may be in the lounge and wish to access a file to perhaps check your schedule or you need your computer for any reason. Although you may have a laptop, it is always handy to have Kinoni Remote Desktop on your Nokia N8 which allows smooth control of your desktop but on your device! The developers claim that this app is the fastest PC remote control app but after using a couple of these apps, there isn’t much difference in speed but rather usability.
The users that have left comments mention that this is a recommended app which deserves 5 stars, after using this app : in the beginning where I was asked to enter the IP, I was confused on which IP as I didn’t know if I should have received something or something is missing, I am a victim of not reading carefully – others have also been in the same place; one has to download the drivers from the Kinoni website which is only available for Windows.
Being winter here in the southern hemisphere, the people here would love this gadget. MobileFun sent such headphones that they are embedded in ear muffs, keeping your ears warm while you listen to music. I have previously reviewed many earphones and headphones and I must say that the quality is slacking with this one.
After trying these headphones with several different devices such as the Blackberry Storm 2, Blackberry 8520 Curve, Nokia N900 – the sound quality remains the same, perhaps the actual headphones aren’t equipped with the kind of technology that the Ministry of Sound headphones feature – the high quality sound that it delivers.
In the beginning, it may be hard to adjust and the headphones can be abit uncomfortable for the user but eventually one will get used to it. The headphones are not wireless so it will seem like you have a wire sticking out of your ear, the connector of the headphone to the Nokia N8 is abit uncomfortable but with the correct adjustment, one will enjoy the warmth and comfortability.
The headphones feature a volume control near the 3.5mm jack for the Nokia N8, as well as a small clip that you can use to clip onto yourself so that the wire doesn’t get tangled.
Chess may not be liked but everybody wants to keep themselves busy while they are waiting for something, I would recommend try a game thats not only fun but beneficial also. Chess itself being a mind game, can be tricky and hard but if you know your way on how to beat the CPU, then one day you can even be GM! This chess game is limited to only level 1 so it isn’t hard.
With the advantage of Timeseal on the FICS, the user will not have the transmission time counted against them as what Timeseal does is record your thinking time then warn the FICS about it thus improving usability. At some cases, I have exited games and applications by mistake thus loosing my content but with Chess Lite on my Nokia N8, the app always asks me if I want to save my gameplay.

After meeting many Nokia N8 users and reading on forums, users have been complaining that even though they are next to a network tower, they still experience network issues. At times, the network would go into SOS which further enabled the issue that the device wouldn’t charge. This may seem strange but it has happened.A Nokia N8 user mentioned that he had sent his device in for repairs but when returned, he was told that nothing could be done meanwhile another user claimed that the sent in his Nokia N8 for repairs. all that was done is that the software was re-installed and the charging pin was changed. All of the Nokia N8 owners had the latest Belle software which means that the bug is present in Belle only, there is no update to eliminate this besides re-installing.

There are always better versions of the Need for Speed being launched for its fans of most consoles. The Nokia N8, being one of the consoles has the capability of handling top quality games, one of them being Need for Speed The Run. Although some would say that this game isn’t exactly god quality compared to Angry Birds which does deserve to be called a bit lower than HD quality based on its performance.
Need for Speed The Run is an improved version of the previous Need for Speed games, the series of this game has always been based on a story towards the player racing in different regions, unlocking cars during the odyssey and achieving higher status. One of the features that I found annoying was the way I had to brake and steer as their is no motion sense movement; one has to press the brake disc located on the lower right of the display.
I personally and users that have submitted their opinions in the Nokia Store that NFS Shift is better than The Run, a drawback is that while I was playing : the graphics were slow thus making the gameplay slow and freezing the race. During the other NFS games, the player was able to unlock more than 7 cars but in this game, the player is only allowed to unlock up to the 7 cars available.
Normally sometimes if I leave my Nokia N8 unlocked in my pocket, it automatically does what it wants, at times it calls any random number because of the movement. LockOnCallLogs for your Nokia N8 is a free app that allows the Nokia N8 user to lock the Call Log thus preventing trespassing and the mistakes of unintended calls
.I personally do recommend this app but if you forget passwords easily, then a second thought should be considered for your case. If the case may be that you have forgotten the password then perform a back up of your device, then fully format it to remove all the effects or just uninstall the app but all its effects won’t be removed.
When I personally tried out this app, I had no difficulty in during usage although it would be annoying to input the password frequently. The smoothness, effectiveness of my Nokia N8 remained its status.
