Meet My New Chick: The Nokia N95 8GB

Posted November 21st, 2007 by Abdalla Ahmed

It has just been 2 months since I purchased the Sony Ericsson K810i and I have already got myself a new cell phone and not just any cell phone, its the brand spanking new Nokia N95 8GB model.

Now, many have questioned how I got this phone such as close friends and parents but the truth is after nearly 6 months worth of blogging (it will be 6months on friday) I have had success in terms of making some money online thanks to you, my beloved readers :mrgreen: (okay so adsense ain’t that great but the sponsored reviews and such are going sweet!) ->> Back to topic->>

Nokia N95 8GB PIC

The nokia N95 8GB version offers so much for a cell phone. The fact that it has GPS functions and wifi pre installed unto the phone for you to use is what makes it unique. Okay, this phone is not a PDA but it damn right offers everything near to it besides the touch screen function.

Now, we all remember the release of the iPhone right? With its many features that are meant to be unique such as its tilt phone and the screen will change (i.e from landscape to portrait and vice versa) well now the Nokia N95s cna do this too with its many features just emerging thanks to developers worldwide -Meet The Rotator:

rotateMe v2.0 on N95 with auto rotation function like an iphone.
Available (unsigned) end november.
A new version will be also available for n73, N80 and E65:
- New User Interface
- Rotate the screen by launching the app (like an E60)

A good reason to get the N95 instead of the highly overpriced iPhone…but wait it doesn’t stop there; have you experienced the Nokia accelerometer yet…?




This feature works fantastic on both the normal N95 and the new 8GB version which I currently own. Download the accelerometer application here

Yes Guys and Girls, the main selling point of the iphone basically alredy exists in the Nokia n95. If your going to spend a lot on a mobile phone then I say go for the n95 8GB version which happens to come with Spiderman 3 already pre-loaded unto – yes DVD Quality! Infact, I downloaded DivX Player and now watch all my latest prison break and heroes episodes on my phone after I download them!

I download prison break or movies from the net via usenet (newsgroups) and then send the .avi (movie file) via “file manager” to the appropriate folder which in this case is “my videos”

I then downloaded divx player (click here to download divx mobile player) and play the movies from there. (DivX is found under “Apps” on the N95)

If you want a more in depth guideline, then let me know and I will help. (just contact us)

As usual All downloads can be found in our SweetHacks Download Directory.

Please if you would be kind and give me more in depth guideline or step by step, that would be highly appreciated. I would love to be able to download movies and media shows. To watch and catch up on shows thru this beautifull device when I travel would be an awsome thing!!
-What’s the full url for the usenet?

Thank’s

Hey i have an option of downloading an anti-virus program for my N95 8Gb (F-Secure), will it slow my phone down much? if any?…. if any body has installed it or of similar type, it do they recommend?
Also i was wandering which memory source should i install programs on? currently im installing important apps on phone mem, and not so important on mass memory.. ? is that ok?

@ Tim-

F-Secure will not slow down your nokia n95 handset according to the program creator but I have found that any program which load with the phone when switched on takes it toll on the general speed (RAM usage perhaps?) and therefore cannot say if F-Secure will slow it down. One thing is for sure though, it will stop you from getting viruses and it wont hurt you to test it it. Whats worth it, a virus? or safety and slowness :D

@ Rick

If it requires a serial key I highly recommend you buy or register the product with the original creators. If you insist a simple google search returned this: http://www.bitdig.com/search/torrent-n95_gameboy_advanced_emulator/category-all/order-rel/page-2/

which is a bunch of torrents (warez) that may be useful.

@ Claire,

Slide Tones? I know the n95 has true tones (mp3) and all of the lot but I am sorry to say I have never come across “slide tones” before.
