Most of them seem to be hacked when you install them. They have different startup sound and pics. Some take away a load of crap that you dont need so you save memory on the phone. Must have a proper look around.

Is there any decent RSS readers that use Google Reader for the N97?

Anyone having problems with the radio on their N97. On mine, i turn on the radio and its fine for about 5 seconds and then it seems like its tuning to another station and all you get is static. Same happens when you switch station, ok for a few seconds then all of a sudden fuzz.......

Anyone any ideas??

Re: Firmware N97M
So according to Nokia, there is a new rev of firmware for the N97 mini. V11.0.045.
But when I tried to update my phone NSU said no new firmware. Any ideas..?

kmart6

Did you try Ovi!?

batman2000

Yeah tried Ovi, it doesnt recognise any updates either

kmart6

And I presume it's not available OTA!?

Is your phone unbranded? Ya might need to change the product code to get the euro firmware.

turned mine off after a week or two of cracking up trying to look at things and it automatically changing. thought I would be able to find the balance point just before it rotates haha.

Saw that but it's no good. It's just a link to the Google Reader page! I'm after something like Reeder on the iPhone that displays the feeds without any gusto, or having to go through a browser.

I think I had an RSS feed as a widget at one stage. As far as I know once the feed was saved in the Nokia Web Browser favourites, it was available as a widget when you go to add one to the home screen.

I'll see if I can get it again and post to confirm whether or not it works as I remember.

Ok just tried it there now (yes I'm bored).

It is a web feed that is saved to the Nokia Web Browser. So in the browser go to Options -> Go to -> Web feeds and then add the feeds you want. Then when they are saved you can add them as a widget to the homescreen and the updates should pop up without having to be in the browser.

Hope it works, haven't left a feed on as a widget to confirm it updates.

Just checked now and if you set the options to update under the browser then the feed should update itself, again I haven't fully tested this.

I think my N97 is possessed. I picked it up last night to plug the charger into it but the thing was charging anyways haha. Left it off an only checked it a minute ago aswell and it still says its charging. lol
